Chapter 203: The Haslem Formula

"Whew~"

The little tiger finally let out a roar at the goose.

But just when Xu Yong thought that it was finally going to counter the goose, the next second it was forced into a corner by the goose.

This king is really useless.

If he wants to continue like this, he is embarrassed to say that it is his own pet.

But at this moment, he suddenly had a bad taste.

He went to the first floor to find a cardboard box, made a simple crown, and put it on the little tiger's head.

Then, there is the moment of witnessing the miracle.

Xu Yong looked expectant, but what happened next was completely unexpected for him.

The little tiger really didn't hide anymore, as if the crown really protected it.

But it still didn't resist, and let the goose ride its face.

Well, this king is really useless.

Just then, the courtyard door was pushed open and Butler returned.

Because they're going to Miami tomorrow to play away, they're all taking some time to relax.

"Senior, in the finals, do you want to play the Lakers or the Thunder?" Butler sat down and spoke.

"Jimmy, I remember you said earlier that your idol was a T-mac?" Xu Yong did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

"Well, before, I played in high school in Houston, and the Rockets' signboards at that time were Yao and T-mac, but since I came to Tempe, my idol is you, senior." Butler said frankly.

Xu Yong smiled, it was quite funny to say this, the feeling of a high school student watching a city basketball star suddenly play on the same team one day.

"You can learn T-mac's skills, but don't learn what he does, and it's not time to think about the next round opponent." Xu Yong said with a smile.

Butler reached out and scratched his head, though he felt that the Heat had not turned the tables around.

"What are they doing now?" Xu Yong turned his head and asked, because of Rose's matter, he hadn't paid attention to the situation in Xiduan in the past two days.

"1-1, very intense, Durant scored 40 points in the first game, the Thunder won, but in the second game, Kobe Bryant returned a 41 points and equalized the big score." Butler's expression looked like he should have seen the footage.

"I'm bullish on the Thunder." Xu Yong said.

Butler immediately understood, and Xu Yong answered his question in a different way.

"Thunder is younger?"

"They have a very fatal weakness."

"What?"

"Durant's physicality."

Although Xu Yong doesn't mind having a peak showdown with Kobe, but now that Rose is injured, it will be more difficult for the Bulls to play the Lakers than it was to beat the Mavericks last year.

But the Thunder, like he said, Durant's physicality is their biggest weakness.

In the second meeting against the Bulls in the regular season, he personally led the team to win, and this is the only way to win.

Although Durant has improved his offense now, and it is difficult for Xu Yong to lock him up, the Bulls can take advantage of his weakness and catch him on the offensive end.

When the time comes, the Thunder will have to protect Durant on the defensive end, and the initiative of the game will be on the Bulls' side.

Talking about the current situation in the Western Conference finals, the key still depends on Harden, and the Thunder's elimination of the Spurs in history is that Harden played well.

His good brother is more refueled.

When the finals meet, if Harden has a need for a nightclub or something, it is incumbent on him, a good brother.

……

The next day, the Bulls arrived in Miami to face the Heat in G3.

In the end, the Bulls also defeated the Heat 112-103, rewriting most of the series to 3-0.

It was a very weird game, mainly because of James.

Although James didn't play well in the first two games, at least he was playing seriously, but in this game, James played a big game and was crazy about statistics.

He's either playing easy balls or on his way to easy balls the whole game.

You have to admit that his ability in this area is really strong, because the opponent has just made a move and he is already playing a fast attack.

As for the defensive end, he didn't exert any effort at all, and when he saw Xu Yong, he asked Wade to defend, and he resolutely contracted when he changed defenses, and it didn't matter if he was thrown into by Xu Yong.

So the whole process of this game can be summarized as follows: the rest of the Heat team is frantically resisting pressure, but James is desperately trying to score points.

In the end, James shot 14 of 28, scored 34 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists, and only had 2 turnovers and only 1 foul.

Fifty percent of the shooting rate, two double-doubles of the big one, the highest score in the game, I ask you if you are confused by this data?

Miami fans also found out after watching this game that there are also low-level and high-level brush data!

The lower level is the kind of crazy pile shot, accompanied by a lot of turnovers, but the advanced one is James tonight.

You basically can't feel his presence in the battle, and he is also invisible at the decisive moment, but after the fight, the data is so luxurious.

Of course, it was not only the fans who were shocked, but also a certain turtle from as far away as New Orleans.

He also suddenly discovered that the data could still be played like this!

Who would dare to say that James did not influence the next generation?

Besides, if you don't have influence, it's Chiguo's disrespect for people!

Back on the field, after the game, some Miami fans at the scene were scolding.

Yes, I really can't help but scold directly.

Your brother is at the pinnacle of the group, and when James came, he said that there were more than 7 championships, and now what?

I didn't see the shadow of the champion, but the playoffs faced the Bulls 0-7!

It's a waste of their feelings.

You must know that in the past two years, not only the three of them have been ridiculed, but Heat fans have also been looked down upon on social media.

Or more accurately, because of some extreme Jabriel remarks, Heat fans simply don't dare to appear on social media.

James didn't participate in the post-game handshake every day and had already left the court early, so this scolding was only enjoyed by the rest of the Heat.

Haslem's face turned red, and Wade also stood in place in a daze.

He thought about the difficulties they might encounter, but he never expected things to come to this.

When your own fans start scolding you, as the veteran of the team, it is really difficult to calm down.

When he returned to the locker room, Wade saw that James had washed up and was ready to go back.

And unlike the previous two games, there is no trace of frustration on James' face tonight, and the mood may even look good?

This made him feel a little angry.

His forbearance over the past two seasons was by no means for such a result.

Especially tonight's James, whose performance at key moments even made him feel sick.

"LeBron, we need to sit down and talk about where we are." He stopped James.

James was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I still have business activities to attend in the evening." ”

Wade's expression was stunned, it's past ten o'clock and there are still commercial activities?!

"Oh, I'm mistaken, I promised my wife to spend time with him and his sons tonight." James also seemed to realize that it was not a good thing to say, so he changed his tune.

Wade was really angry, and it was clear that he was making excuses.

"We're going to be swept again, for the second year in a row, don't you think we should do something about it?" Wade asked.

The tone was obvious, and everyone else in the locker room looked at the two of them in unison.

Wade is a very mild-tempered person off the court, and has never clashed openly with his teammates, but now, he didn't expect that the first person he would clash with would be James, who is also a banana boat brother.

"What else do you want me to do? With 38 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists, I've done everything I could. James looked at Wade and said his stats for tonight with unmistakable accuracy.

Wade was speechless for a moment.

In terms of statistics, he was all playing hard tonight, and in the end he only scored 19 points, which was only half of James's.

"You should have asked other people who didn't play well to play in the next game, not to ask me in that tone." Wade's public questioning made James not polite when he spoke.

Hearing this, Wade couldn't help but smile bitterly.

At this moment, all that echoed in his mind was the sentence that Xu Yong asked him during the All-Star Game.

"Are you really missing a championship?"

Who is to blame for this situation now?

Although he didn't invite him, he agreed to join James;

It was also he who blindly conceded when there was a conflict between the two, making James the new team leader;

Even tonight, he didn't question James' stealth at a critical moment.

In the end, it seems that he is to blame.

James ignored Wade and walked straight to the locker room door.

However, he couldn't get out because Haslem was blocking the door with an angry face.

Haslem doesn't have much of a fighting record in the NBA, but he's also a ruthless character, and he's learned taekwondo for years and has a lot of off-court fights, which is why he's a seemingly "jerk" type of player who can end up being a team feat.

He's in the Heat locker room, and he's the same type of guy as Draymond Green, who can hold the court.

"I'm going out." James tried to restrain his emotions as much as possible.

"Go and apologize to Dwayne." However, I didn't expect Haslem's attitude to be very tough.

Everyone else in the locker room was dumbfounded, including Wade.

Because Haslem's words didn't save James any face.

James was also stunned, and it was impossible for him to apologize in public.

"Udunis, let him go." Wade spoke at this point.

He has to open this mouth, because it really makes both sides unable to get down the stairs, let alone in the future, the next game can be avoided.

Haslem wanted to speak and stopped, but Wade had spoken, and there was no reason for him to continue to block there.

He was unwilling to get out of the way.

James looked at him, snorted coldly, and walked straight out.

Haslem was already angry because of Wade's usual attitude, but James's voice raised his anger again.

"LeBron!" He shouted directly at James.

This time it was so loud that not only the players in the locker room, but also the staff outside the locker room, and even the cleaning staff turned their heads.

James walked forward as if he hadn't heard.

"LeBron, remember, we were already champions before you came!" Haslem shouted directly.

With this bang, James's body was visibly stunned, but he continued to walk forward and disappeared around the corner.

At this point, everyone else in the locker room looked at each other.

In this Heat team, the people who are qualified to say this sentence are Wade and Haslem.

Because they were the only two players who remained with the team when the Heat won the championship in '06.

Because of his personality, Wade was obviously impossible to say, but now Haslem said it.

Moreover, it is impossible to refute it.

If trash talk is also divided into internal and external words, then this is definitely at the level of internal presidents.

Wade sighed.

Haslem didn't just say it, but shouted it, and he didn't have to wait until tomorrow, and he was afraid that there would be a lot of noise on social media.

This means that the rift between James and the Heat will be completely irreparable.

Soon.

Riley, who was in the president's office, learned from the staff what was going on in the locker room.

"Udunis is an idiot!" He couldn't help but slap the table and get up and curse.

0-3 didn't let him break the defense, but Haslem's words made him break the defense.

Because this trash talk really makes things irreconcilable.

He sighed for a long time, and his whole person seemed to be several years old.

Thinking back to the summer two years ago, when he recruited James and Bosh with a goose flush blanket and championship ring, I probably couldn't have imagined that it would come to this.

However, there is no regret medicine in the world.

He calmed his breath and sat down again.

Now he had two options before him.

One is to find a way to glue the broken mirror to it little by little.

Don't feel that this road can't be taken, because the championship must not only look at yourself, but also look at your opponent.

The Bulls Rose is abolished, and he can't play for the whole season next season, Yao Ming has been frequently injured this season, and it is difficult to say how many games he can play next season, and it is not impossible to reimburse the season.

And in the East, the Bulls are the only opponent of the Heat, the Bulls can't do it, and others can't stop the Heat.

This is also the reason why he broke the defense, Haslem usually looks very good, but as a result, he has no long-term vision at all.

The second is trading.

There's a lot to be said about trading.

The best solution is, of course, to trade Haslem, although this will cause dissatisfaction among old fans, and even Wade will be unhappy, but the ship encounters wind and waves, and abandons the pawn to protect the coach, since Haslem said that sentence, he should think of such an end;

The second is to trade James, Wade is impossible to trade, although Wade has been plagued by injuries this year, but as the star who helped the team win the first championship in team history, unless it is a free agent to sign with other teams, trading this kind of thing he has done is also over.

But James, although he has not played well in the past two years, the transaction value is there, considering the capital market bound behind him, he is definitely in the top three in the league.

But the problem is that trading James basically can't get back a player of equal value.

Don't talk about Howard, the peak Howard is just a stalk for James, and the current Howard is even more untouched.

For the rest, he would like to trade James for Xu Yong, but is the Bulls likely to agree?

The Thunder are unlikely to accept James' offer to trade Durant.

As for the others, Kobe Bryant and Nowitzki can't be replaced, and he won't change them, and like Anthony and Love, they are obviously the Heat team at a loss.

Therefore, this transaction can only be an operation of exchanging the whole money for zero.

But after zero, is the Heat still a championship team?

So one is a better choice.

This Haslem is really addictive, but he still needs to wipe this ass.

……

The day after playing G3, Xu Yong drank water while watching the situation on the West Decisive side.

With a 3-0 lead, the Bulls really don't know how to lose.

But when he took out his phone, he found that there was already a lot of noise on social media.

When he saw the familiar sentence that couldn't be more familiar with "Before you came, we were already champions", he couldn't help it, and a mouthful of water squirted out directly.

The Green Formula, has it become the Haslem Formula?

That's too showy, isn't it?

However, it seems to be very reasonable.

Because the Heat split factions last season, although this season was eased by Wade's concessions, but only the détente did not disappear.

If Wade's concession finally makes the Heat successful, then being swept or something before will no longer be a problem.

Historically, the Heat team has probably gone through such a process, and Wade's sacrifice did not help him much personally, but saved the Heat.

It's just that now, because of the existence of him and the Bulls, the Heat will stop the East for the second year in a row, and the outbreak of contradictions is almost inevitable.

And Haslem's personality is indeed similar to Green's, plus the Heat's team history, I can't fault this at all!

I just don't know where James is now, and I don't know if I'm okay.

……

"Bang! Syllable! Boom! ”

James' mansion, where James is throwing things frantically.

This time he didn't fall on the blanket, but on the wall.

Broke the defense, he really broke the defense!

I don't know how long it has been, but the living room has been a mess.

He sat down in the king's soft chair, his chest still heaving violently.

Even if he fell so many things, his mood was still difficult to calm down.

Haslem's trash talk was just too lethal.

Because it's not trash talk in nature, it's just illustrating a fact that has already happened.

But this fact is the strongest trash talk, the kind that makes people completely irrefutable but broken.

If he hadn't been able to beat him, he would really have to go head-to-head with Haslem.

After a long breath, he called the servants to clean up the living room, then got up and drove straight to Riley's house.

After a while, in Riley's study, the two men met.

The reason why I didn't choose to be in the arena is because there are many people there, and the last time I was faced by Riley is still vivid.

Riley was not at all surprised by James' arrival.

He also intends to use this opportunity to ease the conflict between James and the Heat.

"There's a voice outside saying I want to leave, that's a rumor." James sat down and spoke.

Riley smiled and nodded, then asked his wife to make a cup of coffee for the two of them.

Although James's words came out of nowhere, at least he showed his attitude, which saved him a lot of trouble.

"But I feel like we need to make some changes." James continued.

Riley nodded, he had already guessed what James was trying to say.

"Udonis's words are really excessive, and we will ban him." Riley then made a gesture that he was supporting James.

Trading is just the last resort, especially since the series isn't over yet, and it's not the time to mention that.

And he is also giving James a step, if James comes down like this, then maybe Haslem will not have to trade.

Don't overestimate the close relationship between NBA players, just a group of colleagues who are noisy with each other.

He has been in the NBA for so many years, not to mention the noisy between the players, and he has seen many fights, but at that time, the self-media was far less developed than it is now.

"I feel like we need to make some changes in the summer." It's a pity that James didn't go down this step and continued to reiterate his views.

Riley glanced at James, a little unhappy in his eyes, but nodded anyway.

In the current situation, if one Haslem can be sacrificed in exchange for a championship, it will be worth it.

After all, this championship is not only about the Big Three, but also about his own status.

If the Big Three end up without a crown, he will also become a laughing stock.

Seeing Riley nodding, James didn't hide anymore and said directly: "I think we need to improve the strength of the point guard and the inside." ”

"Do you have any recommendations?" Riley asked directly.

There is nothing wrong with what James said, and the position outside of the two Big Three is the weak point of the Heat.

And now there are Haslem and Odom, which add up to more than 10 million salaries, and it is possible to improve one of the positions.

"I think Steve Nash would be the perfect fit." James spoke.

Nash?

Riley's first reaction was to shake his head, not to mention that Nash is also a player who needs to hold the ball, and the defense is still sparse, and the Heat is estimated to be a strengthened version of Mike Bibby, and the Suns may not be able to let it go.

But when he thought about it, James would say this, and most likely he was mentally prepared to play with Nash.

And if he's not mistaken, Nash's contract with the Suns expires this summer, and this is really an opportunity.

However, the problem is that the Heat are now over the luxury tax, and the Suns are rebuilding by letting go of Nash, and other chips may not attract them except for the Big Three.

"And the Suns' Channing Fry is a quality interior player." James continued.

Riley's wife brought them coffee, and Riley took one of the cups and blew on the hot air.

He didn't rush to answer James.

Fryma, a 2.11-meter space-type interior swingman, is the same height as Bosh but weighs more, and can top the average No. 5 position.

And the key contract is still very high-quality, and there is a two-year contract of about six million.

So the question is, are the Suns a subordinate team of the Heat?

Apparently not.

If not, why would the Suns send Nash to you again?

There is still some room for maneuver in Nash's words, after all, Nash is a meritorious player for the Suns, and if he wants to chase a championship at the end of his career, the management will most likely fulfill him.

But Frye has started full-time with the Suns this season and has had the best season of his career.

Don't say you want Nash, even if you don't want Nash, the Suns can't look down on the Heat's worthless first-rounder.

To sum up, the idea is good, but the idea is too beautiful.

"What do you think of Chris (Bosh)?" Riley took a sip of his coffee.

He still has a basic understanding of James, although James's level of knowledge is not very high, which can be seen from many things, but he will not come up with the idea of exchanging Haslem and Odom for Nash Gavrey, which is not only impossible, but also mismatched in salary.

So rule out this possibility, and the rest is that James wants to change his giant teammates.

"Chris is a very professional team-mate, he works hard and I love the feeling of being a partner with him."

As James said this, Riley paused visibly as he was about to put the coffee on the table.

Then, a sneer flashed across the corners of his mouth.

James, it's too much.

If you don't move Bosh, you want to move Wade.

Wade's words, although he gave a meniscus when he entered the league, and his statistics have declined this season due to injuries and ball problems, but after all, he is a third-year FMVP, and the Suns will definitely not hesitate if they can exchange Nash and Frye for him.

But James actually thought of moving Wade, which was a bit too much.

"Dwayne, I have a good relationship with you, right?" He took a deep breath and asked as he put his coffee on the table and looked at James.

The Banana Boat Brothers, although they are plastic brothers, at least show that they have a good relationship in private.

For a superstar like them, who is also a Monopoly, it's nice to have plastic brothers.

So the relationship off the field is a more important part than what happens on the field.

Of course, Riley asked this, in fact, he was also confirming his own judgment.

"The relationship on the pitch will not affect our private relationship."

James' words directly amused Riley.

Is James stupid himself, or is he taking Riley for a fool?

People are not machines, you want to squeeze your brother out of the team, and you still say that it will not affect the private relationship?

Why don't you go to heaven!

"Do you think the Heat can win a championship next season by sending Dwyane away and getting Nash and Frye?" When he put away his smile, Riley looked at James seriously.

He asked bluntly enough, and he confirmed it at the end.

"I'm confident." James replied directly.

Riley sneered directly when he heard this, and the temperature in the study seemed to drop a lot.

James clenched his fists, and he also thought about the reason why Riley might be angry, after all, Wade is the supergiant that the Heat have cultivated themselves.

But he and Wade have indeed reached the point where they are now incompatible.

Why did Haslem dare to spray him with trash talk like that? It's not because Wade has Wade behind him.

In his opinion, that was what Wade meant, and he was dissatisfied that he had taken the position of the team leader.

So trade Wade away, and all the problems will be solved.

Even his relationship with Wade could be greatly improved.

Because it's a conflict with living with friends, but it's the same thing that separation is still good friends.

"You can go back." After putting away his smile, Riley stood up and said.

This is a direct eviction order.

"The deal?" James looked up at Riley.

"Hehe, as long as I'm president of the team, the Heat won't trade Wade." Rai said coldly in an affirmative tone.

James didn't expect Riley's attitude to be so resolute, and he didn't even leave any room for negotiation.

He was also a little angry, got up and said, "If you can't make a change, I can't guarantee that those rumors won't appear." ”

Those rumors, which rumors?

Of course, it was the rumor that James was leaving the team when he first sat down!

In fact, with his guts, he didn't dare to talk to Riley like this.

But now he has been caused by Xu Yong and the Bulls to have psychological problems, and Haslem's words made him break the big defense at the same time, but also a little out of his mind.

"You can go!" Riley's face turned pale, and he pointed directly in the direction of the door.

Seeing that Riley was angry, James also regained some of his senses a little, and did not quarrel with Riley again, but turned around and left the room directly.

When James was gone, Riley was so angry that he swept the coffee to the ground.

He's been in the league for so many years, and no player has ever dared to threaten him, but James is the first in this regard.

But he's not Wade, and he's just going to give in.

It's a big deal to get James out of the way this summer!

……

After another day, the Bulls and the Heat's G4 continued in Miami.

When warming up before the game, Xu Yong turned his head and found something that surprised him.

James wasn't there.

Until the game was about to enter the opening ceremony, James did not appear.

Is this another groin attack?

At this point in time, he couldn't help but think of the scene when the Black Eight Knight was two years ago.

But even if he had a groin attack, James should at least be on the sidelines?

Moreover, there was no news before the game, which is really strange.

Until the start of the game, James did not appear on the court, and now not only Xu Yong, but also Miami fans were puzzled.

However, the process and result of this game were unexpected.

The Heat won, 99-91, and although they didn't win much, they finally managed to pull one back.

The whistle of this game is outrageous.

The Heat made 50 free throws, more than double that of the Bulls.

Especially the blow penalty in the final quarter, Wade dreamed of returning to the 2006 Finals.

It's clear that the league doesn't want the Heat to suffer a sweep for the second year in a row.

But the whistle factor aside, the Heat played well this time.

Wade had 30 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, Bosh had 20 points and 11 boards, and even Odom replaced James very well, scoring 14 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists.

After this game, Heat fans suddenly discovered that there was no James, and the team was formed around Wade and Bosh, and the Heat also had a chance to win the championship.

This hypothesis, which was accepted two years ago, is truly presented to them this time.

It was only after the game of this game that the Heat officially announced the reason for James' absence: for hurting the team, the Heat imposed a one-game ban on James!

Xu Yong felt hard to believe when he heard the news.

James is suspended, or is he suspended by the team, or is it a reason to hurt the team's behavior.

It has to be Riley, who rules the army with an iron fist!

But now, the James on social media collectively broke the defense.

Xu Yong saw this grand occasion before going to bed that day.

"Pat Riley is an old bastard, a loser who picks peaches and can't take care of himself after being beaten by Jordan!"

"it, I begged LeBron to join, but now he has such a backstab, he doesn't know what respect is!"

"The biggest cancer of the Heat team is Riley, you look at the teammates around the Big Three, all of them are CBA-level, and they are completely wasting LeBron's peak!"

"LeBron shouldn't have gone to Miami in the first place, he suffered so much criticism for helping his good brother Wade, and now it's ending like this, I really don't feel worth it for him!"

"Hahahaha! Hahaha! "Comment from" KBfnas ".

……

It is actually completely understandable that James is so big and defensive, after all, this is not a matter of "winning is not terrible, but it is embarrassing to lack anyone", but Riley's behavior shook James's league status.

You must know that almost no team would treat the superstars in the team like this before, especially James was the "chosen son" before entering the league, and he used a 96 million endorsement contract to book Nike's top brand in advance, which is also the next façade of the league, which is the supergiant of the supergiants.

Even if James has performed average in the Heat team in the past two years, he is also the favorite to be in the top five MVP every year.

It's like a golden signboard, but Riley smashes a hammer on it.

In the eyes of the Jammys, Riley deserved to die.

However, Xu Yong is actually curious about what James did to make Riley do such a ruthless move.

You must know that this ban is more direct than the [Haslem Formula], which basically means that the Heat and James break up, and James' departure enters the countdown.

And in this way, where James will be traded in the summer is also extremely interesting.

This is something that has never happened in history, and it is completely unknown.

And then there is another one that makes him curious, that is, whether James will play in the next game.

Riley did this to James, and the two sides tore their faces, and it was reasonable for James to recur from his groin injury.

But if James doesn't play, he still has to be ready for a fierce battle in the next game.

Time flies, three days have passed in a blink of an eye, and the Heat and Bulls moved to Chicago to continue the G5 competition.

Something unexpected happened to Xu Yong, and James actually made a comeback.

The photographer at the scene also frequently gave him shots.

James kept a smile on his face and communicated with his teammates as if nothing had happened.

Although in fact, it can be seen from the embarrassed expressions of Wade and others, it is obviously not like that.

After all, how can the broken mirror be reunited?

Of course, Xu Yong was happy to see this, James is back, and the Bulls are stable tonight.

In the end, the fourth quarter was played, the score was fixed at 85-96, and the Bulls completed a gentleman's sweep against the Heat with a score of 4-1.

James came back strongly, finishing with 28 points, 11 rebounds and five assists on 12-of-24 shooting.

On the other hand, Wade and Bosh scored 21 points on free throws, and Bosh only scored 8 points and 3 boards on 2-of-7 shooting.

Statistically, James is undoubtedly the offensive core of the Heat, as efficient and versatile as ever.

But if you watch the game, you will find that James is simply committing a crime.

He still plays his easy ball like G3, and even more exaggerated than G3 is that he stayed in the front court for a few rounds without retreating, just waiting in the backcourt to score points directly!

It can be said that the previous Miami fans watched the tooth-itching game, but when they arrived in Chicago, the Bulls fans felt like they had watched a joyful comedy.

After the game, the two sides shook hands after the game.

When shaking hands with Wade, Wade looked at Xu Yong with an extremely complicated expression.

As the saying goes, if you don't hit the south wall, you won't die, and only when he really reaches this point can he fully understand the meaning of Xu Yong's original words.

Xu Yong was open-minded, he gave Wade a hug, and then said some words of encouragement.

On the bright side, James is leaving the team in the summer, the Big Three are disbanding, and Wade can return to the style of play he is used to.

And that assumption of what kind of strength the team can achieve around Wade and Bosh will also have results next season.

As for whether Wade can still be the boss, Xu Yong thinks this question is no problem, after all, Wade was an All-Star in history before 2017.

Of course, there have been injuries this season, and Wade and Bosh alone are not enough, and it still depends on what a James trade can bring to them.

After attending the press conference, Xu Yong relaxed himself for a night without going to practice, and he asked Thibodeau for the video of the game between the Thunder and the Lakers, ready to really start thinking about the opponent in the next round.

At this time, the Thunder and Lakers had already fought 2-2 on the score, and the battle of Tianwang Mountain was unprecedentedly fierce.

That kind of intensity, across the screen, Xu Yong can also feel it completely from the video.

Then when he saw Game 4, Xu Yong found that the Lakers were already doing what he had said before and began to catch Durant on the offensive end.

The picture of the game was hilarious at one point, because Durant wanted to save physical strength, so he always switched defenses with his teammates to avoid the Lakers' offense, which looked like a big colander.

In the end, the Lakers won the game.

After reading it, Xu Yong felt that if nothing else, the opponent of this year's finals would still be to play the Lakers, a more difficult finals than last year's finals.

After turning off the TV, Xu Yong picked up his phone again and swiped social media for a while.

It's a lot of fun at this time, too.

"I really can't take it, it's been like this for two games in a row, LeBron's fifty percent shooting rate has a score of about 30, but I still can't take the Heat, let's go!"

"LeBron really tried his best, Bosh played like that, you can't win even if you change to Jordan, he's not a giant at all."

"Some people are always stuck in the past, the Heat is no longer a championship team, look at it, they are nothing without the Kings."

"I swear by my second brother that if the Heat trade LeBron, they will never win a championship in the future."

……

Seeing this, Xu Yong knows why James G5 is playing, because with this data, the media and fans can build momentum to say that he did his best, which can greatly dilute the previous ban turmoil.

Especially for fans who didn't watch the game, the data is far more convincing than words.

"Hehe, what if the Bulls win, which one does he win without Rose, Thunder or Lakers?"

"Last year, the Bulls were lucky to meet a weak team like the Mavericks, but luck won't always be on their side."

……

A week later, the curtain finally came down on the Western Showdown.

After seven big games, the Lakers finally won the game at home, knocking out the Thunder 4-3 to advance to the Finals.

This also means that Stern's momentum this season has not repeated the previous 23vs24 mistakes, but has really become.

Although this is actually expected, because it was not Stern's layout problem before, but because James was too crotch-pulling, he couldn't beat Howard, who entered the NBA later than him, and then, he was also blacked out by the Bulls.

But now, Xu Yong and Kobe, who represent two eras, are inextricably linked, and the two people who have planted the cause in the Drew League are about to have a peak showdown on the stage of the finals.

Kneel and beg for all! Pass!!
