Chapter 174: The Last Battle
In this game, Li Cheng scored 31 points, Granger scored 29 points, and the two combined to score 60 points. The shining of the Twin Stars of the Indian City made the little emperor's 45 points a joke.
At the end of the game, James gambled on two fouls and left the court with six fouls. Such a move was widely criticized by the media after the game.
"What a childish act! It's incredible that something like this happened to a team leader. ”
"There's no doubt that James is a very talented player and hard working enough. But I don't think he's capable of being the boss of a team, he's only fit to be a second-in-command. Because of his character, he is not fit to be a leader. ”
All kinds of criticism poured in, and the young emperor did not leave the house for a whole day after the game, and he did not know what to do.
James, who is only 24 years old now, is indeed a little younger. By his side, there has never been a senior who can guide him, and he needs to rely on his own exploration.
"Alas!" James sighed, then turned off the TV. He walked to the balcony of the villa and looked at the gloomy weather outside, feeling even worse.
"I'm going to have to vent in the evening." Thinking about it, James dialed his teammate Gibson.
A day later, a game about whether the Cavaliers can save face is coming, but James chose to go out for a night at this time.
At this time, Li Cheng was still resting in the hotel and adjusting his state. Even if he was already 3-0 down, he didn't take it lightly.
Everything is possible, and Li Cheng's understanding of this sentence is probably the most thorough. He can get the "Top of the Basketball System", what else is not possible?
The 3-0 lead was overturned, which is a small probability event, but this is only a small probability event after all. It's not absolutely impossible. If you go to a random person on the street and ask him if he has a high probability of a 0-3 comeback, or a high probability of getting a "top of the basketball system", his answer must be that the probability of a comeback is relatively high, which is yes.
So in the last game, Li Cheng will definitely not take it lightly. He's going to give it his all.
The fourth game between the Cavaliers and the Pacers has gone unnoticed, and with little to no one other than die-hard Cavaliers fans believing that the Cavaliers will be able to reverse the outcome of the series, the only thing left now is what kind of score the Clevelanders will lose.
After the third game, James had this to say in a press conference. "What's wrong with a 3-game losing streak? What's wrong with being down 0-3? Can't we give them back a four-game winning streak? ”
When James said this, many reporters on the field burst out laughing. If you have the strength to win 4 in a row, you won't be able to win the first 3 games? Just kidding! Unless Li Cheng and Granger are both injured in training now, Cleveland will definitely lose this round of the series.
On May 9, this is the start of the fourth game between the Pacers and the Cavaliers. And today is also the time for the league to announce the winners of each of the awards for this season's regular season.
The award for the best rookie was originally in Durant's bag, but after Li Cheng's birth, there was a controversy over the ownership of this award. Ultimately. Li Cheng conquered all the judges with his crazy performance in the second half. In the 2007-2009 season, the trophy of the best rookie in the NBA finally fell into the hands of Li Cheng.
For the best rookie for a while, Li Cheng was of course selected without dispute. And the best team in the NBA this season. Lee Sung was also selected for the third team. It can be seen that Li Cheng's strength has been widely recognized by everyone.
Then, the most eye-catching award was the regular season MVP award. The award is as controversial as Best Rookie. Kobe Bryant and Paul's MVP battle. It was also at the end of the season.
For Kobe, the league owes him an MVP. And for Paul, this year his watch was impeccable. If he is elected, he will be the youngest MVP.
And in this environment, in the end, Kobe Bryant defeated Paul and finally won the regular season MVP trophy. This is also the first regular season MVP trophy of his career. Paul may have lost at his youth, but the end result was already settled.
The major awards are just a plug-in, and now that teams are working hard for the playoffs, they don't have the energy to bother with such innocuous awards! A championship ring is their ultimate dream.
Today at noon, the game between the Pacers and the Cavaliers will begin. It's a face-saving battle for the Cavaliers, but for the Pacers, a win would send them to the second round with their heads held high. The mood of the Pacers players is a little excited.
Among all the players, the most excited person is Li Cheng. Li Cheng participated in the playoffs for the first time and was able to step into the second round. This is already a great happiness for many players who have never made it to the second round of the playoffs in their lives. (I didn't have Maddie!) )
At half past one in the afternoon, the fourth game between the Pacers and the Cavaliers is about to begin.
In this game, Brown was still constantly mobilizing and making speeches. He frothed all the spit, and it didn't seem to be of much use. James drooped his eyelids all day today, and he didn't look like he had woken up.
The Pacers on the other side don't have the Cavaliers' death-defying appearance at all. O'Brien didn't do any pre-match mobilization, and they were all in good spirits, just waiting to win this game and step into the second round!
At the start of the season, Indiana fans thought their team was still a playoff team. However, after the start of the season, the Pacers' performance disappointed the fans, and their consecutive defeats made the fans lose confidence and hope.
However, after the awakening of their god of war, after Li Cheng was born. The Pacers' record has improved step by step, and they not only reached the playoffs, but also sat in the fourth place in the East, which is definitely a big surprise for Pacers fans.
Now, they're not just stepping into the playoffs. They also let their opponent swallow three eggs in a row, and they already have a 3-0 lead, and now they are going to give their opponent, the Cleveland Cavaliers, the fourth egg. Complete a hearty sweep! (To be continued......)
