Chapter 1828 From Shame to Sinner
The game is over and the world is split apart!
The Los Angeles Lakers beat the Los Angeles Lakers by 21 points. Ji Feng, who had a triple-double with 29 points, 13 assists and 13 rebounds, and Kobe Bryant, who had 28 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, certainly attracted people's attention. They were also praised immediately after the game. Reporters surrounded him, but the one who received the most attention after the game was none other than LeBron James.
The Heat had two giants tonight. Wade had 33 points and 6 assists, and Bosh had 24 points and 9 rebounds. Neither of them could steal James' limelight.
"The biggest stain on James' career."
"The star has fallen! James is lost in Los Angeles."
"The leader is Wade? Maybe James has a grudge because of this. What's the reason for the abnormal situation!"
"This is called a super giant? 16-8, how can we win with half the score!"
"Wade Bosh: Something weird got mixed up among us!"
…
Before this finals, no one would have imagined that such a title would appear in front of the public, and no one would believe that James would have two consecutive abnormalities in the finals in his prime. The abnormality. If the 16 points in the first game were barely noticeable, the 8 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists in this game were simply eye-catching.
You must know that before tonight, James' career playoff averages have reached 26.5 points, 7.6 rebounds and 7.8 assists, with a shooting percentage of more than 50%. Even in 2007, when he first reached the Finals, facing the peak During the GDP siege, James never gave such a miserable answer, so one can imagine how frightened people were.
"I'm really convinced. Has James been training in the past two days? The more he plays, the worse he gets. What kind of level is this? It's a shame I liked him so much before."
"It goes without saying how strong the Lakers are at the third position. Ji Feng, Artest, and Barnes took turns educating James. In this Ji Feng triple-double, Artest scored 17 points and Barnes scored 9 points, all of which were greater than James. The Heat It’s not unfair to lose, why don’t we wait for the Chinese New Year if we fight like this?”
"Ji Feng destroyed James with three blocks. He deserves to be the key player. Those three consecutive blocks were really amazing."
"My mentality is so bad. I'm still playing in the finals. I'm comparing myself to Jordan. When did Jordan ever have such diarrhea in the finals?"
"Don't be embarrassed, James scored 3 more points than Jordan in the three-point contest."
"You have no objection to me declaring the Lakers championship here. Everyone, the Heat can go home. Nothing will happen without you this year."
"The battle was resolved in 4-5 games. Wade tried his best and played very well in two games. Bosh is worthy of his price. However, James is too bad. The stain is really a stain!"
Even more angry fans went to the Heat's official website to curse and vent their anger. In short, it really looked like the world was in chaos.
In a word, after this game, James went from shame to sinner, just like Pierce said: "I don't know what to say about scoring 8 points on 11 shots in the finals. Generally speaking, this kind of The players are rubbish players.”
Various speculations and conspiracy theories have also emerged. Some fans said that although James is considered by the outside world to be the core of the Heat, the leader of the Finals team is Wade, and James may have a grudge against him because of this.
After the start of the playoffs, James was far ahead of other players in terms of efficiency, scoring and usage rate, but Wade suddenly emerged in the finals. This may be because Wade has played against the Mavericks before, so he has more experience in fighting. . Therefore, Wade's ball possession, usage rate and shooting percentage in the finals have been greatly improved, surpassing James. James is calm on the surface, but deep down in his heart, he definitely hopes to win the championship with himself as the absolute core for his first championship trophy. The huge gap between ideal and reality made James waver in his heart, so he also performed abnormally on the court.
Well, it is reasonable and well-founded, although it is not very reliable.
And more fans have begun to analyze James' technical shortcomings. They believe that James' technical shortcomings have been exposed and his weapon skills still need to be improved.
James was already one of the league's best scorers when he joined the Heat in 2011. However, James's scoring methods were more transition attacks and three-pointers. There was indeed a gap in mid-range and post-up singles.
This allowed the Lakers to seize the opportunity, slowing down the tempo during the game to encourage James to play in isolation: We also saw that James failed to impress the little Fisher in isolation in the finals, and was called an offensive foul. James' offensive routine After being figured out, it is not surprising that James' offensive efficiency has been greatly reduced.
Others said that the huge gap between Ji Feng and James made James' mentality explode. He could not accept the fact that Ji Feng was so much better than him.
Of course, there is no shortage of die-hard fans to praise James. Some people said: First of all, it is not just James who scored so low among superstars in the finals.
Kobe also scored 8 points in the Finals, shooting 4 of 20 from the field. Bird also had two consecutive 8-point moments in the Finals, while Shaquille O'Neal scored 8 points in two consecutive games in the Finals. Even facing a small center Dampier, he actually had an "unparalleled statistic" of 5 points. Don't you think it's amazing? Therefore, we must first face up to the phenomenon of superstars performing abnormally in the finals. After all, superstars are also human beings. , they also make mistakes sometimes.
In short, after this game, there was a quarrel between those who ridiculed, those who gloated, those who criticized, those who couldn't stand it, and those who couldn't stand it.
Originally, Stern was a little worried. After all, James' abnormality led to a slight drop in the ratings for the second game. Moreover, the seven peak matchups he imagined would be difficult to achieve. It is very likely that there will be another sweep, which will cause the league to lose at least 80 million. Beautiful knife, he couldn't help but feel a little liver pain.
But I didn't expect that due to mistakes, James' popularity would soar into the sky, which greatly made up for the problems caused by the lack of excitement in the game. Of course, this is not good news for James.
It can be seen from the fact that James did not accept interviews after two consecutive games that he himself must be autistic.
"How can I not be autistic? If I were like this, I would be autistic, let alone him." In the locker room, Gasol, who took off his socks, looked at James' data on the data board and shook his head. This data is placed on any Famous players feel uncomfortable, let alone Lao Zhan.
"That's because we are good enough. Ji Feng's tactics are too good. Just targeting James is amazing." Farmar gave Ji Feng a thumbs up.
It turns out that before the start of the second game, Ji Feng proposed at the Lakers team meeting that he would continue to target James in the next game. After all, compared to Wade, James's condition is visibly worse. It would be a pity not to target him.
Zen Master then let Artest start, and he also used Ji Feng and his three tough three positions to take turns against James. He also asked Gasol and Bynum to cover at any time, and Fisher and Kobe rotated at any time, which equals five people on the court. Staring at James playing alone, there were several excellent cooperations in the opening moments.
