On June 7, Cleveland fans were faced with a difficult choice: should they buy a used car or go to the sidelines to watch James play his final Finals game?

The day before the Cavaliers game, it was announced that James would return for Game 4 of the Finals, and the price of courtside tickets was raised to tens of thousands of dollars, which was more expensive than the ticket price of Staples, which was considered by many to be a very cheating behavior.

As we all know, Cleveland is a blue-collar city, and the economy has been in a bad state, so why are you more expensive than Los Angeles tickets?

However, the appeal of the Finals is not trivial, and the price of tickets at the Cavaliers' home quick loan center has become a hot commodity, despite being a cheating one. The finals and the popularity of the little emperor brought visible dollars to the knight boss Gilbert, and in the face of the unknown next season, the knight boss at the moment completely held the mind of slaughtering a sum of money, and planned to have a final madness.

There have been rumors on the Lakers side in the past two days that Gasol, the Lakers' second-in-command, was involved in trade rumors, and the hottest hype was to exchange him for the Suns' Amare. Stoudemire and Chris of the Raptors. Bosh. An insider with knowledge of Gasol revealed that the Spaniard is very reluctant to be traded, which would make him very unhappy. But if she had to trade, Gasol would also like to go to a competitive team, and she doesn't want to go back to the grizzlies' troubled days.

Many experts immediately suggested that if the Panda brother leaves next season, they can consider bringing in Gasol, and the Clippers need to return to the 18 million trade exception, so that the Lakers can use the exception to trade players like Anthony, Smalls, Bosh and even James.

Of course, such a construction is a bit whimsical. It simply doesn't work. But the fans of the sister-in-law all raised their hands in favor.

Gasol is now a pauper's version of Brother Panda. If Ji Guoyi has such an inside partner with outstanding adaptability, he will definitely be able to give full play to his outside attack ability, and Ji Guozhi will not seize his sister-in-law's low space, this deal kills two birds with one stone.

Lakers fans laughed at the whimsical of Clippers fans, the rules were not clear, and the sister-in-law would never defect to the enemy camp, even if the latter wanted to go, it would have to wait until the contract expired in the 2013-2014 season.

Of course. The news from the Lakers is definitely more than that, in the face of the predictable star huddle action in the summer, Kobe Bryant feels a deep crisis at the moment, if it continues like this, his fourth championship is far away. It is said that Peter Pan has clearly informed the Lakers management that his patience is about to run out, and Kupchak doesn't want to be fired, so hurry up and go out to grab two helpers like his sister-in-law, don't get any more beards, one beard will already kill his father.

But according to a report from Sports Illustrated. No matter how much Kobe Bryant puts pressure on the Lakers this year, the Lakers won't have many options to get another star. The current Lakers have five star players: Kobe, Gasol, Chandler, Davis, and Odom. The salary of the whole team is close to 90 million US dollars, and the salary is about to exceed 100 million, how can you trade other stars?

The Lakers' only option now is to trade Davis or Gasol, draft picks and other players in exchange for stars like James, Anthony, Smalls, and Bosh. But whether it's the gorilla, melon, dragon king, or bully, the Lakers have a hard time actually closing the deal. In other words, there's a good chance that the Lakers' job of finding a qualified helper for Kobe Bryant in the summer won't be completed.

In fact, in the eyes of experts at this moment, the Lakers have long been dragged to death by the contracts of Davis, Gasol, Chandler and Kobe, and the contracts of the boxing champion and Kobe Bryant will expire in the summer, and both of them may leave the Lakers.

Let's start with Tyson. Chandler, if the boxing champion jumps out of the contract, the Lakers will reduce their salary by 10 million at that time, but it is still useless, and they still have no room to trade. On the contrary, if the boxing champion leaves, the Lakers are likely to no longer have the strength to compete with strong teams such as the Clippers, and everyone knows that the Lakers' interior defense now depends on Chandler. But if Chandler renews his contract in the summer, the latter will definitely ask for a big contract of more than 10 million, and the Lakers' salary will be more than 90 million by then.

Speaking of Kobe, the Lakers are now actively negotiating a contract extension with Peter Pan, but Kobe's salary last season was as high as $23 million, and once the contract is renewed this summer, it will start at least 25 million. It is said that Kobe Bryant is asking for a real maximum salary contract of up to 30 million, and if this is the case, the Lakers' entire team salary will really exceed 100 million.

The Lakers can now be said to have been riding a tiger for a long time, they have been unable to meet Kobe's requirements to enhance the strength of the team, and secondly, they have been unable to meet Chandler and Kobe's contract renewal requirements, these two requirements are simply refutations, and Lakers fans will not only not see Chandler next season, but I am afraid even Kobe Bryant will not be able to see them.

When the Clippers were asked by reporters before the game whether they were interested in Kobe, Ji Guozhi had no scruples, and opened his mouth and said: "Interested...... That's weird! After he came, who was the eldest of us? ”

The reporters laughed in their hearts, knowing that he would answer like this, and no one in the entire alliance would say such a thing except for this dead fox.

Ji Guo was speechless and continued: "You guys look at it, Kobe Bryant will still stay with the Lakers after climbing off the roof for a while." Unless Bass Jr. can't offer him a satisfactory contract; Unless general managers Kupchak and Kobe Bryant are cross-eyed; Unless Mrs. Bryant wants to leave Orange County for New York, or either to Chicago or even Charlotte, the chances of Kobe Bryant coming to the Clippers are slim to none, and it's a little less likely than the big fat man going down the runway. ”

The reporter became even more excited when he heard this, and at the same time secretly slandered: "You fox scolded Pierce yesterday for breaking the news that his teammates brought you on, today we are obviously talking about Kobe, but you brought Bass Jr., Kupchak, Vanessa and O'Neal with you, how did you have the face to complain about Pierce yesterday?" ”

The press conference before the game asked and asked, and then asked back to the old question.

A reporter asked Ji Guoqiu: "The latest dynasty in the NBA that people say is the 00-02 Lakers of the OK combination, and O'Neal and Kobe Bryant 8 years ago are so beautiful." The Spurs, on the other hand, have won one more championship than the Lakers in a decade. But not so many people claim that Spurs have created their own Spurs dynasty. At this moment, when the Clippers are about to sweep the Cavaliers. We can't help but ask. Are the Clippers going to start their own dynasty? ”

Ji Guoqiu thought for a while and replied: "There are only three times in history when a team has had its own dynasty, the Celtics (16 championships), the Lakers (14 times) and the Bulls (6 times). In addition, no team has won 3+1 championships in 9 years, the Spurs are fourth in history, and the Clippers have to continue to work hard. ”

Dunleavy Sr. faced the same question and said, "'Dynasty' is an unattainable reputation, and I know everyone is talking about whether the Clippers are a dynasty team or not. But I think it's all psychological babbling. When I think of historical dynasties, two names quickly come to mind – UCLA and Bill. Russell, the rest is just a matter of words. ”

Ji Guoqiu felt that the old Dunleavy had gone too far, didn't this exclude the Bulls and the Lakers?

Brother Panda added: "We have a good two-year schedule, but the third championship will not be won until tonight after the victory over the Cavaliers, and you have to look at the Bulls, Celtics and Lakers in the 80s, they ruled an era, I think such a team is a dynasty, the OK period, the Spurs, and we are not a dynasty for the time being." ”

At the Clippers' pregame press conference, the media has already begun to discuss whether the Clippers can be called a dynasty team. On the other hand, the knight's press conference was already lifeless.

The Cavaliers, who had fallen behind 0:3 in the Finals, had no way back. No team in NBA history has been able to achieve a comeback in this situation, and there is no such precedent in the Finals, in a sense, the only suspense in the Finals is whether the Clippers can stage a sweep and whether the Cavaliers can win the first Finals in the team's history.

The Clippers certainly don't want to postpone their coronation so that they don't have too many dreams to make up their minds, and they are expected to be the next team to sweep their opponents in the Finals after the Spurs.

The sweep and anti-sweep have become the biggest attraction of the fourth game of the finals.

LeBron. James did indeed return in Game 4, and when the Clippers players came out, the little emperor was already in front of the technical table and sprinkled magnesium powder into the air as if he were dominating the world, and opened his arms longer than ever before, and his facial expression was more stern.

Many Cavaliers fans can't imagine at this moment that this will be James' swan song, the last time he will throw magnesium powder at the Quick Loan Center, and the last time the emperor will put on a king's show in Cleveland.

After the start of the game, the Cavaliers showed their determination and fighting spirit, and James's breakthrough and Xiao Mo's three points formed a situation of internal and external flowering. The Animal Brothers were frantically surrounded by the Cavaliers, and Billups continued his usual steady form, scoring consecutive jumpers in the opening stanza, but the rest of the Clippers were slow to get into the game.

Even if the Clippers' Big Three relaxes, it is not difficult to go back, but other players can't do it freely, and the two games are too relaxed, making most of the Clippers players out of shape.

The Animal Brothers didn't score a point in the first five minutes, James' three-pointer gave the Cavaliers a 14-8 lead, and the Clippers' eight points were all scored by Billups.

Dunleavy Sr. called a timeout and replaced him with Grant. Hill plays.

The Clippers have two old monsters with unfathomable skills, and a replacement for Hill might help, and Dunleavy Sr. needs to add a scoring point to the team.

After the game restarted, Billups broke through to the inside to split the basketball, Hill made a mid-range jumper, and the basketball fell into the basket hollow. After the 38-year-old monster came on the court, it really played an immediate role, this deal can be regarded as the best value for the Clippers this season, what more do you want with an annual salary of 3 million?

Grant. Hill hit three mid-range shots in a row after coming on, forcing the Cavaliers to relax their encirclement of the animal brothers.

The knight soon discovered that they could no longer take it back.

Ji Guoyi first made a single draw for Brand to foul, and then got rid of the old captain who couldn't keep up with him, and hit another emergency stop jump shot, scoring four points in a row to help the Clippers catch up with the score.

In the middle of the first quarter, the Clippers began to get into the groove, and several cores opened fire on the offensive end, regaining control of the game.

The Cavaliers are in a three-way battle today to avoid being swept away, especially with the in-form James leading them, they can finally pose a threat to the Clippers' defense.

James' outside basket was particularly accurate today, and Hill was beaten into a sieve by James on the defensive end, but the old spicy Clippers can still score steadily on the offensive end.

Ji Guoqiu's hand was not bad, and the Pandas hit three shots in the second half of the first quarter to help the Clippers firmly maintain the lead. Ji Guoyi also broke through to the basket twice, and although the Cavaliers played well on the offensive end, they still couldn't prevent the joint play of the animal brothers on the defensive end.

Cavaliers fans kept cursing the two brothers for stepping on their feet when they were scrambling for rebounds during the game, and it was best to fall on the ground when they passed halftime, and they would fall half to death at once, then thank God for the eight generations of ancestors.

These Cleveland gaffes are also helpless, and Cavaliers fans have always wondered why the animal brothers are in such a stable state, and only two of the four games of their Little Emperor Finals feel particularly good, but these two brothers are so stable in every game, they really can't eat.

The two brothers were again dismantled and used by Dunleavy Sr. in the second half of the first quarter, Ji Guoqiu went down to rest three minutes before the end of the first quarter, and he could go directly to the court in the second quarter to maintain the offensive firepower of the Clippers and the defensive quality of the second echelon.

At the beginning of the second quarter, both sides played with bench lineups, but the Clippers had one more Ji Guoqiu, which was enough for them to gain the upper hand.

Brother Panda first turned around and broke through in the low post, and made a rebound to expand the score gap to 5 points. Mo Jr. then returned the favor with a long-range shot, but Crawford's buzzer-beating three-pointer helped the Clippers extend the margin again at 36:30.

James had no choice but to return to the court after only two minutes of rest, holding the ball and attacking Panda's brother to cause a foul.

"He's trying to knock me down with foul play?"

Ji Guoqiu has seen the way the knights and magic fight to the death, and immediately knows James's plan, but he is different from Howard, this is his first foul, it is difficult for James to get him down, and it is impossible to succeed without eating a dozen hot pots.

James hit both free throws, but Ji Guoqiu immediately attacked in the low post and returned the color, which also caused Milicic to foul defensively.

The first biggest difference between him and Howard is that his low-post skills and ball protection ability are far better than those of the Monsters, and his ability to respond against the sky also makes the players who contain him always timid and unable to be as resolute as Howard.

Milicic has already been hit at this time, the Serbian was really beaten into a parallel by Ji Guoqiu in this series, this former genius star is now completely disconfident, and even has the intention of retiring immediately, which shows how he suffered from his panda brother in this series.
