Chapter 780: The Strongest James (1/4!) )
New Bayi Chinese Network - A collection of online novel reading networks
The game between the 76ers and the Nets is over, but the talk about Mitchell and Simmons Rookie of the Year is buzzing.
"Both of them are excellent, and in my opinion they are more like Jason Kidd and Grant Hill."
In the face of the media's questioning after the training day game, Tang Tian used this description.
Grant Hill and Kidd were both rookies in '0495 and had great performances.
The former averaged 19.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 5 assists and 1.7 steals per game in his rookie season, and his shooting percentage reached 47.7 in that era of confrontation, which was an absolutely excellent performance.
But Kidd averaged 11.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, 7.7 assists and 1.9 steals per game in his rookie season, and although he didn't shoot high, he did what a point guard demanded: make the team better.
He had five triple-doubles that season and took the Mavericks from 13-69 the previous season to 36-46, improving his teammates Jim Jackson and Jamal Mashburn from 19.2 points per game to 25.7 and 24.1 points per game, respectively.
Hill and Kidd shared the rookie of the season as a result.
In terms of regular season performance, Simmons is a bit similar to Kidd, and Mitchell is a little worse than Hill, but after the playoffs, his assessment is quite pertinent.
It also gives the fans and the league a new direction, and maybe they can share the best rookie of the year.
Knowing that after Tang Tian said this, the discussion of this topic was able to fall back.
It was at this moment that people's eyes were drawn to another person.
LeBron James.
With Deron playing poorly due to injury and his teammates being lost, James continued his magical play.
In the first game, he lost with 25 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists, but in the second game, he immediately cut 42 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists to help the team win.
In the third game, he scored 28 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists, and in the fourth game, he scored 46 points, 8 rebounds and 11 assists to lead the team to a reversal.
Tianwangshan's 26 points, 10 boards and 5 assists were not physically strong, but he followed up with 44 points, 9 boards and 5 assists in the sixth game to drag the series into a tiebreaker.
"It sounds shit, it's a 34-year-old player, but we're probably witnessing the strongest LeBron." Barkley was not calm on TNT's show.
But such James deserves all the praise.
"He's still the best player in the league." When Tang Tian was asked this question by reporters, he did not hesitate to comment.
Although there were some grievances in the past, one yard to one yard, James' performance deserves this kind of evaluation.
And he also wants James to play a little better, and it would be even better if the Cavaliers could win.
The Western Warriors and the Rockets have finished the first game, the Warriors won 120-100, and the Rockets can't fight without Tucker, and the Warriors are still a high probability event to enter the Finals.
As for the Warriors, with Durant, a super small forward whose strength is no worse than James, it will be a good thing for the Nets to adapt in advance.
The Cavaliers and Celtics kicked off at the North Shore Garden Arena, and the Green Shirts at home were favored to advance.
Tang Tian did not go to the scene, but watched the live broadcast at home with a small notebook.
The whistle after the opening was loose, which led to a strong confrontation on the field, a high defensive intensity, and it became difficult to score.
That gave the Celtics a sweet spot and an eight-point lead over the Cavaliers at 21-13 at the end of the first quarter.
In the second quarter, James didn't stop for a minute, led the team to counterattack, and forced the score to close.
The score was 43-41 at halftime, with the Celtics leading by just two points.
Tang Tian took a pen to record some details on the field of the two teams, and bit the pen thoughtfully at the end of halftime.
In the previous life, the Cavaliers and the Celtics also played 7 games, and in the end, the Cavaliers won with James's large quasi-triple-double, but now the Celtics have one more Hayward and Thomas Jr. than in the previous life, and no one knows how to win or lose.
Swift and Hathaway knew he was at work and took the kids upstairs.
Seeing that he was idle, Hathaway came down with a glass of lemonade.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep after drinking coffee." Hathaway said with a smile.
Tang Tian kissed Hathaway and hugged her for a while.
The two chatted for a while, and when the second half was about to begin, Hathaway got up and went upstairs again.
Looking at his wife's back, Tang Tian suddenly felt that after two more years of coaching, it was really time for him to retire.
Just as Jordan said he doesn't need to prove anything in basketball anymore, he doesn't need to prove anything as a coach anymore.
Compared to basketball, he should spend more time with his family.
The second half of the game between the Cavaliers and Celtics continued.
At the beginning of the third quarter, the Cavaliers took the lead, and James made a series of sudden shots to help the Cavaliers establish a nearly double-digit lead, but when it came to the bench stage, Tatum and Morris hit consecutive times to tie the score.
The two teams played to the fourth quarter of the decisive stage, but still the winner was still inseparable.
The stalemate lasted until the final two minutes, when Hayward scored back-to-back driving layups to help the Celtics build a four-point lead.
However, James hit two heads-up three-pointers in a row at the critical moment, overtaking the score.
Tatum broke through James before the end of the game and scored a violent dunk, which made people look straight up, but the ultra-difficult back-up followed by James made people look wet again.
With six seconds left in the game, the Cavaliers held a two-point lead.
Stevens' timeout.
The fans at the scene would breathe painfully, but their eyes were staring at the field and did not dare to move.
Stevens has been hailed as the second Don Tian, and in addition to his excellent tactical ability, he is best known for his timeout.
As long as you come back from a pause, you can basically play the tactics.
This time was no exception, and despite the Cavaliers' best defense, Hayward still got a three-point chance in the final moments.
The ball is shot at the whistle and crossed a high parabola.
"Huh!"
A crisp sound echoed through the North Shore Garden Arena, and Hayward's three-pointer in the final moments was like a sword piercing through the heart, shooting the Cavaliers off the horse.
The whole arena was boiling.
Their summer signings have definitely made a lot of money.
The Cavaliers looked at the Celtics celebrating with a confused expression, and James also shook his head helplessly with his hands on his hips.
But at this moment, no one noticed that Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue rushed to the technical table.
The live stream has ended, and the host began to discuss the Celtics' next game against the Nets. Tang Tian also put down his pen and prepared for the game against the Celtics.
But that's when the camera suddenly cuts back.
In the live broadcast, a slow-motion replay of Hayward's stunner just now was given, and after five or six consecutive replays, the referee changed the penalty and reached out to make a gesture that the lore was invalid.
The fans in the camera were full of disbelief, and the Celtics players were even more confused, except for the Cavaliers who were celebrating wildly.
Tang Tian choked on a sip of lemonade, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head after recovering his strength.
It's so dramatic.
