In the history of professional sports in the United States.

Cleveland has always been a cursed city.

The professional team here has never won a professional league title.

The Cavaliers have been the league's belly joke for a long time.

In the '80s, Staurier, the owner of the Cavaliers, was blind.

Trade draft picks indiscriminately.

The result is a championship team like the Los Angeles Lakers.

Won a champion lottery the next year?

This allowed the Lakers to take James Worthy in the draft.

directly formed a four-champion combination and dominated the west.

Because of a series of enigmatic operations.

As a result, the league had to introduce the Stepian clause.

Regulate the trade of draft picks.

I can leave a clause in the NBA by name.

They are all famous characters.

It's a pity that Stupion and the Cavaliers left a disgraceful reputation.

And this curse of professional sports circles.

In 2016 there was already hope of being put to an end.

On June 10, after defeating the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 4.

The Cavaliers have a 3-1 lead in the Finals.

This is an absolute advantage.

They are one step away from the championship.

What's even better is that Game 5 will be played on the Cavaliers' home court.

Won the championship at home in Cleveland.

Just think about it, and you know what an exciting moment it was for the fans.

Tickets for the evening of June 13 sold out early.

And the ticket price was pushed to a very high price.

You know, Cleveland is not Los Angeles.

There aren't too many celebrities in attendance.

Many of the people who came to watch the game were ordinary fans.

Many spectators who couldn't buy tickets squatted early in front of the stadium.

Watch the game on the big screen.

Come and witness one of the most important scenes in Cleveland's sports history.

And the Los Angeles Lakers came from afar.

Seems destined to be a foil.

The Lakers arrived in Cleveland on the 12th.

Bryant followed his teammates to the Quick Loan Center.

He is expected to have surgery on his shoulder after the finals.

Now his arm is so swollen that he can't lift it at all.

He wore a very wide blazer.

to cover the bandage around the shoulder.

From the moment the plane landed in Cleveland.

The Lakers players can feel the celebratory atmosphere that pervades the place.

The city of Cleveland is already planning a championship parade.

The O'Brien Cup had been transported to the edge of the field at the Quicken Loan Center before the game.

Wait until the Cavaliers win this game.

They will make history.

Lift a trophy that never came to Cleveland.

All of this is undoubtedly stimulating the Lakers players.

is also deeply stimulating Kobe.

Kobe Bryant even regretted it a little.

Shouldn't I have decided to retire after the third race?

Instead, it should be held out a little longer.

Playing a closed game to continue the game?

Although the damage caused by that is permanent.

But it's the last trip to the finals.

Why not spell it again?

Bryant regretted in his mind.

Of course, reason told him that it was impossible.

He's this age, he's got this injury.

Even if it is closed, it is useless.

And the injuries caused may affect his normal life functioning in the future.

So neither the team doctor nor the family can agree.

The result of giving up is to watch others win the championship.

Just like in 2008.

Massacre in Boston.

That scene Kobe Bryant still remembers vividly.

Sometimes nightmares do it at the North Shore Garden Arena.

Trailing by more than 30 points, watch your opponent win and celebrate.

Is this going to happen again?

Kobe Bryant actually can't come tonight.

But he was no longer able to play.

I don't want to run away from failure and give up the pain to my teammates.

So he had to come to the scene.

Even if you lose, you have to spend it with your teammates.

The rest of the Lakers' players were more or less uncomfortable.

A lot of them were playing in the finals for the first time.

Some players may be the first and last.

Veterans like Randolph, Hibbert and so on.

Career can be on the stage of the finals.

It can be regarded as a reduction of some regrets.

It's just that he is going to lose and give up the championship.

The mood is depressed after all.

The atmosphere in the Lakers' locker room before the game was very dignified.

The only one who seemed to be relaxed was Wang Shuang.

In the past two days, Wang Shuang should eat and drink.

I slept well.

Not less with Jessica Chen Qingqing me and me.

After the end of the fourth game.

Wang Shuang even participated in a talk show on Los Angeles television.

It broke the norm of the Lakers' silence during the playoffs.

Most people believe that this is a manifestation of Wang Shuang's abandonment of the finals.

After all, from a personal point of view.

Wang Shuang's performance on the field is beyond reproach.

It's been a very, very perfect year for him.

It is a miracle year for Wang Shuang.

It is destined to leave a strong mark in the history of the NBA.

He is now focusing his energy outside of the game.

Next season, it is understandable.

After coming to Cleveland.

Wang Shuang even accepted a fan event from a local Chinese group.

Meet the Chinese fans in Cleveland.

In a pre-match interview.

Wang Shuang avoided talking about the game and the championship.

He seems to have a relaxed and natural tone.

It seems that he is ignorant of the desperate situation of falling behind 1:3.

It seems that he has entered a state of knowing the destiny of heaven as much as possible.

Some stars are in desperate situations.

I'll put two cruel words anyway.

Although it turns out that the vast majority of them have no effect except to deceive themselves.

But it shows an attitude.

Wang Shuang didn't, he just hid his true thoughts deep in his heart.

After no more task pressure.

He wants this championship more than anyone else.

Because he's a professional footballer.

Before the series is not really over.

He won't give up.

In the locker room, Wang Shuang whistled and changed clothes.

At the same time, I bandaged my own ankles.

The others didn't talk much.

Scott is still in the starting lineup.

Wang Shuang put on his bandages and sneakers.

Came to Scott and said, "Byron, arrange the starters according to my ideas, right?" ”

Scott was stunned.

I thought to myself, "This kid, are you a coach or am I a coach?" ”

After some hesitation, Scott admitted that Wang Shuang was more authoritative.

So, Wang Shuang told Scott about his ideal starting lineup.

Scott was stunned and said, "This... May I? ”

Wang Shuangdao: "You are a coach, can you ask me?" ”

Scott was speechless, at this point you know I'm the coach?

Bryant walked over at this time and asked what the two were discussing.

Wang Shuang told Kobe Bryant what he thought.

"I think we're going to play better with that."

Kobe Bryant thought to himself, "It's already in this situation, what if it's better?" ”

However, Kobe Bryant still supports Wang Shuang's opinion.

Scott sees Kobe Bryant's support.

He didn't have much more to say.

Make every possible effort.

Wang Shuang is now the next top card for the Lakers without a doubt.

The Bass brothers and sisters have already discussed to give Wang Shuang a contract with a maximum salary.

In terms of strength, Wang Shuang has no problem.

In terms of identity, Wang Shuang's Chinese identity will give the Lakers a huge number of fans.

The Bass family is ready for an increase in the team's market capitalization.

Then count the money at home.

Therefore, Wang Shuang is naturally the treasure of the team.

He can arrange it however he likes.

……

It was seven o'clock in the evening Eastern time.

The final battle of the Grand Final series, as most fans believed, has begun.

Before the start of the game.

The TV station showed the starting lineups of both sides.

Fans and commentators found out at this time.

The Lakers' starters made major changes.

Center position.

Hibbert was completely deprecated.

His performance in the first four games was simply terrible.

The Cavaliers' flexible one-steal lineup.

Let Hibbert be a stake on the defensive end.

And on the offensive end, Hibbert is unlikely to punish the Cavaliers inside.

So in addition to the opening two mid-pitch to help the fun.

Hibbert could hardly have played a bigger role.

Power forward position.

Randolph was also on the bench.

In the first round Randolph was a great contributor.

The low post made Greene quite obedient.

His frontcourt rebounds are equally aggressive.

The second round was also outstanding.

But the Western Conference Finals and the Finals.

Randolph is old.

After Wang Shuang suddenly had the ability to shoot in the low post.

Randolph's ability to attack from the low post was weakened.

Holes in defense are magnified.

So, the Lakers fielded the starting lineup of Wang Shuang, Nance Jr., Jeff Green, and Tony Allenga Clarkson.

The Cavaliers are still James, Irving, Love, Thompson and J.R. Smith.

"The Lakers' starters have changed all of a sudden, and the previous five people are only Wang Shuang and Clarkson. Hey, I don't think this is the starting lineup for the Lakers next season? ”

Coach Zhang Weiping, who was watching the game at the scene, felt a little confused when he saw this starter.

It can be said that Kobe Bryant suddenly retired in the finals.

It directly makes the Lakers feel like they are tearing down and rebuilding.

The finals are directly rebuilt.

This is the first time in NBA history.

But the Lakers started this time.

Apparently very targeted to the knights.

The twin towers of Hibbert Garlandorf were too bulky.

Without Kobe, the traditional low-tempo quagmire style of play would have no roots.

The Lakers now have Wang Shuang as the core.

So the starting lineup had to be changed.

However, it's the fifth game of the finals.

The Lakers changed their starting lineup and changed their style of play.

No matter how you look at it, it's impossible to play well.

As the saying goes, grinding the gun in battle, not fast is also light.

The Lakers are not grinding their guns.

It's half of the gun head broken.

To change the look to be a nunchuck.

How to use nunchucks, who knows?

Perhaps only Wang Shuang has the answer in his heart.

Nance Jr. and Thompson stood in the middle circle.

Jump ball.

The race is on.

"At the beginning of the game, Nance Jr. touched the ball first, and the Lakers started to attack."

Kobe Bryant and Wang Shuang's classic high-post blocking tactics are gone.

The Lakers' main offensive tactic has become Wang Shuang's holding the ball and finding a way.

Clarkson passes the ball to Wang Shuang.

Wang Shuang takes the ball in the high post.

[Magician's Golden Left Eye] activates.

"Clarkson Blue, Tony Allen White, Jeff Green Yellow, Nance Jr...... Blue,, none of them topped. ”

Wang Shuang looked around, and his teammates were in poor condition.

So the ball was handed over to Jeff Green.

Then go down the middle road yourself.

Go to the left low post and jam Kevin Love for the ball.

A high-low conversion.

Jeff Green dropped the ball to Wang Shuang.

Wang Shuang once again used the golden left eye to observe.

The Cavaliers let Love defend against Wang Shuang one-on-one.

As in the fourth game, Wang Shuang will not be trapped.

Don't give Wang Shuang the possibility of destroying the Cavaliers' defensive formation.

"Jeff Green yellow, Clarkson yellow, Tony Allen white, Nance Jr. blue...... Let's fight it ourselves..."

Wang Shuang reacted instantly.

Dribbled the ball against Lefou.

Then the Golden Rooster made an independent jump shot!

Love chose to lose weight after coming to the Knights.

Significant weight loss.

The appearance has been greatly improved.

From the previous white chubby.

Became a handsome man.

The price is a decline in the ability to fight against the basket.

And Lefu claims to be 207 tall.

In fact, there are only about 202.

Shorter than James.

Wang Shuang's shot was not hindered.

Hit a two-point shot!

Wang Shuang scored the first point of the fifth game.

The whole Cavaliers team is still relatively relaxed.

But they don't realize that danger is coming.

Wang Shuang and this Lakers.

It's not the same as the Lakers before it.

This kind of seemingly unthinkable thing.

It does happen.

The Knights' offense didn't have too many problems.

James is absolutely dominant.

Owen's powerful singles are the best addition.

Wang Shuang is the core of the attack.

And in defense you have to face James.

Although there is no [Death Mask].

Let Wang's ability to protect the basket under the basket decline.

But Wang Shuang, who has [Falling Soul Bell] on the outside.

Still has the ability to make decisive tackles.

James also opened with an outside strategy.

The ball went to Owen.

Irving bursts into the basket with the ball.

Facing Nance Jr.'s defense, it was easy to tear apart.

Left hand layup.

Irving's man-ball combination is historic power.

Nance Jr. couldn't keep up with Irving at all.

There is no way around this kind of ball.

Attack on the Lakers' side.

Wang Shuang holds the ball in the high position.

It's still golden, and the left eye is swept away.

Everyone's not in a good state.

Wang Shuang handed over the ball and then went to the low post to ask for the ball.

The knight really didn't let Wang Shuang play in a low position.

Wang Shuang turned around this time and missed the Golden Rooster independent jump shot.

But the ball popped up and flew back into the king's hands!

Wang Shuang dribbled the ball inside to kill.

A layup caused a foul on Thompson!

The ball stumbled back in.

Two-point hit, plus free throw!

Penalties are also in.

Wang Shuang scored 5 points in a row and started 5:2.

"On the Lakers' side, only Wang Shuang is scoring, and the others seem to be ...... Belch... I don't know how long the Lakers can hold out like this. ”

"Yes, it is definitely not possible to rely on Wang Shuang alone, it depends on how long the Lakers can hold on."

CCTV went to the scene to explain the duo of Zhang Weiping and Liu Xingyu.

One old and one young, not too knowledgeable about ball.

But it can also be seen that the Lakers only have one point for Wang Shuang.

It's hard to stand alone.

But Wang Shuang didn't think so.

He knew that the [Magician's Golden Left Eye] was used as an S-class prop.

If used properly, it will definitely have the effect of standing out.

He's now slowly finding the hang of it.

Cavaliers Smith misses three-point shots from the outside.

Wang Shuang grabbed the backcourt rebound.

"Run, run! Our speed must be up! ”

Wang Shuang reminded his teammates to speed up.

Throughout the playoffs, the Lakers have been playing in a slow, traditional quagmire.

Now you want to speed up, can you bring it up?

Clarkson, Jeff Green are all on the line.

Wang Shuang observed, "Clarkson is blue, Jeff Green is blue, and Nance Jr. is red!" ”

Finally saw a red state.

Wang Shuang's dribble hasn't passed half the court.

A long pass directly to the three-second zone!

Nance Jr. went into the three-second zone.

Actually, he hasn't reached the attack point yet.

Near the free throw line is not his zone of attack.

But before the game started, Wang Shuang told Nance Jr.

"I'll pass you the ball and you will find a way to attack, absolutely don't hesitate. This is our last chance, attack the basket! ”

So, Nance Jr. dribbled the ball and forced it to the basket!

James blocked Nance Jr.'s layup with a big hat from behind.

But the referee blew the whistle at this point.

Blew James for a thug foul.

In the replay of the live video, James did hit Nance Jr. in the forearm.

"Hey, this ball, give it to Little Nance, and Little Nance didn't hesitate. But James' block is really beautiful, but it's a pity that it's fouled. ”

Nance Jr. made one of two free throws to make it 6-2.

If you follow the normal tactical training routine.

Nance Jr. will pass the ball to Clarkson in the bottom corner or return the ball to Jeff Green.

Fast break can't be beaten.

But he resolutely attacked the basket.

But it creates opportunities.

And made James pay the price for the foul.

Then, James hit a direct shot from a high three-point position.

The Lakers still can't take the Cavaliers on the defensive end.

But on the offensive end, the Lakers also gave the Cavaliers a headache.

Their tactics left the Cavaliers completely scratching their heads.

Not because it's complicated, it's because it's too simple.

It was so simple that Tyronn Lue frowned on the sidelines.

The Lakers' offense is very simple.

The ball must be in the king's hands.

Wang Shuang distributes the ball.

He attacked aggressively and had a good shooting percentage.

He passes the ball to anyone else on the team.

The man took the ball and hit it hard.

If you score, you will score, and if you can't score, you will grab a rebound in the front court under the double basket.

A tactic that is so simple that it feels brutal.

As a result, in the first 5 minutes, it was 13:15 with the Cavaliers.

Just 2 points behind the Cavaliers.

The two sides entered the first official timeout.

"Hey, this, the Lakers' new starting lineup is a bit interesting, it feels like it's playing pretty well."

"Yes, it's true that the players play freely, they don't run or do this or that, anyway, they play when they have the chance, and it feels good. But it's still the same sentence, I don't know how long it can last. ”

In the previous game.

The Lakers can also compete with the Cavaliers in the first half.

Then came the third and fourth quarters.

can be a thousand miles away and beaten by the knight.

So, the fans who watched the live broadcast on the forum are saying.

"The first half was evenly matched, and in the second half we were ...... It's useless, the Lakers will hold out for half the game. ”

"Yes, several people on the Lakers' side are in good shape, but they are still lagging behind, and the Cavaliers are in too good shape, and they are bound to win."

"The Lakers don't have a strategy at all, whoever gets the ball will play alone, and as soon as the Cavaliers defense comes up, the Lakers immediately collapse."

"Wait for Lao Zhan to be crowned, and the Lakers will struggle a little longer."

Judging by the scene and past experience.

The fans said it was no problem.

But Wang Shuang, who is the helmsman of the Lakers, knows.

Tonight's game was definitely different.

He also gradually began to feel what a powerful S-class item the [Magician's Golden Left Eye] was.

It's just tailor-made for him.

"In the future, it would be nice for the Lakers to have more singles masters, and I will double your stats!"
