"LeBron, let's meet again, this time, are you ready?"
The two most high-profile men in the NBA league have met, and the whole world is watching their every move, these are the two people who have been compared for a long time, and who is the better person in this era, in this round of the series, there may be a real answer. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Looking at Kobe Bryant's cheeks with a faint smile, James's heart was full of mixed feelings, in his life, he regarded a total of two people as his goals to surpass, the first was Kobe, and the second was Jordan. After the Heat won two consecutive championships, when Kobe's career suffered a major injury and seemed to be coming to an end, James thought that there was no big suspense for him to surpass Kobe, because Kobe's career was coming to an end, and his career still had a long, long time, which was enough for him to surpass Kobe's achievements. At that time, James didn't take Kobe too seriously in his heart, and only Jordan was left in his eyes, which was the ultimate goal of his life's efforts.
However, James didn't expect that Kobe Bryant miraculously recovered from a catastrophic injury, he not only recovered, but also with the help of a Chinese coach named Chu Xuan, he created a period of time comparable to the peak of his career, from winning the sixth championship to the seventh crown, the birth of these two championships, James was defeated, which made the ending he once thought was instantly different. He's no longer the darling of fans and the league, and he's no longer considered capable of surpassing Jordan, and even after last year's loss, many have sentenced him to death, believing that he doesn't even have the possibility of surpassing Kobe. And his ending, perhaps, is more like Jerry West has become a historic-level pathos.
However, James is not a man who is willing to give in to fate, otherwise, he would not have climbed out of the slums and reached the pinnacle of life. James is not willing to accept the judgment of fate, and he will not accept three consecutive losses to Kobe Bryant and the Lakers in his career, so this time, he will definitely give it his all, and the final result will definitely be different. So when Bryant asked him if he was ready, his answer was naturally unique.
"Kobe, I've been waiting for this day for a whole year, and this year, I will definitely beat you, this is my only chance." James had an extremely serious look on his face: "There is no if, because I don't want to accept such a fate, otherwise I will not be able to forgive myself." ”
The so-called only chance in James's mouth, Kobe Bryant understands. Because if the Cavaliers lose again this year, then James' career will undoubtedly fall to the bottom, and Kobe's life will go to the peak. At that time, James will not have any chance of turning the tables in the comparison with Kobe. Because, for a player who lost to Kobe Bryant three times in the Finals, what does he compare to Kobe? Therefore, this year is James' last chance to redeem himself, and he can only prevent Kobe Bryant from winning the championship, and everything will have a chance to turn around. Otherwise, when Kobe Bryant wins three consecutive championships and has eight career championships in hand, his career status will probably be at the same level as Jordan.
"Now that you're ready, let's fight! Everything, it's useless to talk about it! ”
Kobe Bryant smiled slightly, and looked at James's eyes and couldn't help but feel a sense of pity. He's 38 years old, and he won't be able to stay in the league for long, so before he leaves, he cherishes every encounter with the best player of James' era.
"Kobe, will you keep playing? I'd love to know, how many more years can you play in this league? James asked for no reason.
Kobe Bryant smiled slightly, he didn't know what James meant by asking, but he still replied unabashedly: "I may play for another two years, maybe at the age of 40, that is, when I leave." ”
As he spoke, a look of amazement appeared in Kobe's eyes, to be honest, he didn't want to leave, his feelings for this alliance were too deep. He's been here for 20 years and he really wants to be here for the rest of his life. However, reality is impossible, and sometimes, when it is time to end, it must be over. The pace of time is not something that humans can stop......
For some people, some things will eventually pass away, but it will definitely not end so easily.

16 years is a big year for sports, and in the summer of this year, Rio will host the Olympic Games, so the people's enthusiasm for sports is still very high, which to some extent has also driven the ratings of this year's NBA, since the playoffs, the NBA ratings have been soaring, and now the finals have reached an unprecedented peak.
The first event of this year's Grand Finals schedule will be held on May 28 at the Staples Center. The next six games will be scheduled for No. 30, No. 2, No. 4, No. 6, No. 8 and No. 10. Of course, if the finals can't be played more than five games, then the rest of the game arrangement is meaningless.
However, judging from the comparison of the strength of the two sides this year, no one thinks that the finals will easily end in four or five games. The vast majority of voices prefer to play six games in this year's Finals and then the Lakers win. And if the Cavaliers play well, then the game may go to a tie-break. Judging from the aggregate data surveyed by ESPN and other media, 74% of fans are more optimistic about the Lakers winning the championship and completing the third consecutive championship, only 15% of fans are optimistic about the Cavaliers winning the first championship in team history, and 11% of fans give up this prediction.
This year, though, is more in favor of the mature Lakers, a team that has a 76-6 record and swept three straight rounds of the playoffs. The Cavaliers, as the fourth opponent of the Lakers, although they won 66-16 in the regular season, and most people think that the Cavaliers are the second strongest team in the league, but not too many people think that the Cavaliers can handle the Lakers.
Therefore, for James, this view of the outside world is undoubtedly very exciting for him, and it is clear that his motivation this year is extremely sufficient. It's just that whether they can beat the Lakers is still unknown.
However, no matter what the result is, the battle between James and Kobe Bryant will detonate the world's ratings. After all, Kobe Bryant is 38 years old, and this finals is likely to be the last time the two will meet on the highest stage of the finals. Therefore, while being reluctant, watching the Lakers Cavaliers Finals is the theme of the world in June this year. (To be continued.) )
