After the first defeat, there was an argument between the main players?

Don't make the news too loud.

The Cavaliers had just been defeated, and when they were in the limelight, this kind of thing happened, and the media poured in like sharks that smelled fishy.

The infighting after the defeat is too valuable.

The Cavaliers were on the cusp all of a sudden.

All kinds of brainless speculations in the media have come out:

"JR Smith accused Kevin Love of letting go of the water in the middle of the game and is suspected of leaving the Cavaliers!"

"Christian Thompson and Kevin Love got into an argument, and the two got into a fight, and they were eventually persuaded by their teammates to leave."

"The Cavaliers are falling apart, and Kevin Love is sure to miss the next game!"

……

The second game was about to start, and this happened.

And the statement of Cavaliers manager Kobe Bryant made this speculation even louder: "Because of a foot injury and shoulder injury, Kevin Love will miss the second game of the next Finals, and the specific comeback date is to be determined!" ”

As soon as this statement appeared, there was no suspense in the game.

On the 4th, the second game of the finals began.

The process was as expected.

Irving left, Love was injured, and this time the game was James's one-man show, James broke out all over the court and was in excellent shape, but the others didn't step up at all.

JR Smith scored 13 points on 4-of-11 shooting and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line, the best of any role player.

The others didn't score in double figures, Tristan Thompson was even worse, with 8 points and 7 rebounds slightly better than the performance, and Tristan was suppressed by Gobert and Nurkic throughout the game.

The Mavericks led by 16 points at halftime and went into garbage time in the third quarter.

Durant got 32 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists, and performed well, and Qin Yang once again low-key 25 points, 9 assists, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks.

After the game was played, 2-0 lead, there was no suspense.

If there are no surprises in Game 3, the Cavaliers will still lose.

Perhaps the only good news was that Coach Blatter said in his press conference after the game: "It's more troublesome than we expected, but we're not going to back down, we still have a chance, back in Cleveland we're going to fight back, and Kevin will be going to give it in the next game, it's my last chance for you." ”

Coach Blatter was very depressed, thinking that coaching the Cavaliers was an easy difficulty, but it turned out to be a hellish difficulty, which made people feel hopeless.

Irving's departure left the Cavaliers without a sharp blade.

If Kevin Love is injured again, the Cavaliers are an ordinary playoff team.

No superstar can win a championship without great role players and the right tactical system, and neither is James, and Kevin Love can play, which means that the Cavaliers still have a slim chance.

All eyes were on the third game.

This is the Cavaliers' last chance.

If you can't win the game at home, then the next game will be even less suspenseful.

On June 6, the Cavaliers advocated taking on the Mavericks.

At the beginning of the first quarter, James and Kevin Love played blocking and dismantling together, and James made 2 of 3 three-pointers in the first quarter, shot 7 of 8, and got 16 points and 2 assists, while Kevin Love got 7 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.

The Mavericks have swept through the playoffs this season.

Didn't fall behind, always ahead.

This is the first time in the playoffs that it has fallen behind.

James was already very defensive, and this time James used his outside shot, which he was not good at, to catch the Mavericks off guard.

P.J. Tucker, who was defending James, was depressed.

Six minutes into the first quarter, the Mavericks called a timeout.

Coming back from a timeout, the Mavericks switched defenses, and Durant defended James.

The Mavericks attacked, Qin Yang passed to Durant, ran himself to attract the defense, and gave Nurkic a cover by the way. Nurkic cut straight to the low post after the cover, received a pass from Durant, and scored with an easy dunk.

The Cavaliers' defense has problems again.

This one ball stabilized the situation.

The Cavaliers attacked, James beat Durant and didn't score, but the referee blew the whistle, and Durant was very angry and argued.

The referee looked serious, and Qin Yang hurriedly brought Durant back.

Turning around, Durant broke through, James fell to the ground, and the referee blew the whistle.

This penalty attracted a lot of people at once.

In the CCV live broadcast hall, Mr. Wei Ping spoke very steadily: "This whistle is not easy to blow, let's take a look at the defense, when Durant breaks through, whether James has stood in place, wait a minute, this ball is controversial, James stood in advance, but in the end it seemed to move." In this way, it is okay to sentence Durant for hitting people and offensive fouls, and of course, it is okay to punish James for faking a fall. ”

James faked falls?

This is not news.

Someone specifically used this to hack James.

Here's what James said before he was good at fake throws: I don't need to fake falls, my style of play is aggressive, and I never play fake falls!

The implication is that I look down on players who fake falls.

But...... It's so fragrant.

Within a few seasons, James changed his attitude: You know, fake falls are part of the game. If I can win, I don't mind using any method that can be used within the rules of the game.

Sports Illustrated once conducted a secret ballot among players to select the 15 toughest fake-wrestling masters in their eyes, and the final fifteen selected were: Chris Bosh, Sean Battier, Ragabel, Derek Fisher, Manoginobili, LeBron James, Tony Parker, Chris Paul, Anderson Vallejo, Dwyane Wade, Tony Allen, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Martin, Luis Scola, Andres Nosioni.

It seems to be different from the image in the eyes of the fans.

But whether it is a fake fall or not, only the players on the opposite side of the court know best.

Battier, Ginobili, Vallejo, Martin, Scola, these are the few people who faked falls, everyone can guess because they do it a lot.

Battier believes that fake falls are one of the best ways to defend yourself.

Ginobili's serpentine breakthrough, in order to create fouls, fake falls are even more commonplace.

Vallejo, the Brazilian actor, doesn't need to say much.

Scola and Kevin Martin are also masters of fake wrestling.

But Wade, Bosh, James, Kobe, Paul turned out to be players who often fake falls? Isn't it incredible, in fact it is.

Bosh is also very famous for his fake falls.

James and Kobe Bryant's fake falls don't seem to be many years, but attentive fans will be stunned when they go to see the highlights, and Chris Paul, a player with a lot of defensive moves, is a master of fake falls.

Therefore, the real performance of the players is often not the same as the impression.

The referee looked at the footage, then discussed it with each other, and finally gave James a blocking foul, or a fake fall, which was recognized.
