Chapter 858 [Can't Forget]

The Clippers players didn't rest long before waiting for the opponent, the Mavericks lineup was much stronger than Yang Rui's previous life, and it was not difficult to clean up the Rockets, eliminating the opponent 4-1.

The three major stars are all playing steadily, the weakest small forward position of the Mavericks, there are also two high-quality players such as Jack Crowder and Aminu, and Marion, an experienced veteran. Paul's curse on his past life has long been broken, and he can still make it to the division finals without the Clippers.

"Warcraft" Dwight Howard did not perform as well as Mark Gasol in the series, averaging 16.4 points, 14 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 2.3 blocks per game in the playoffs, but he shot only 41.2% from the free throw line and only hit four of his 9.7 free throws per game.

He shot 52.8% of his free throws in the regular season and dropped to a failing level in the playoffs, which shows Howard's poor mentality.

At the press conference, Howard blackfaced the whole time, and the happy center couldn't laugh anymore, he was only happy with the Rockets for a year.

In 2008, Howard had more advertising endorsement contracts than LeBron James, and in 2009, Howard led the Magic to the NBA Finals.

In mid-2009, the league's general manager took a league survey with the question, "Which player would you choose to build a team?" "The end result was: James first, Howard second.

Sadly, since Howard left the Magic, his career has been on a downward spiral, and personality issues have been exposed. On the Lakers, he had a conflict with Kobe. Now, he and Harden are in a cold war again. He has gone from being an NBA darling to a black sheep.

In the Eastern Conference matchup, the Nets were eliminated by the Wizards 2-4.

The Nets' interior strength has plummeted, Yao Ming averaged only 10.5 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game in the playoffs, Andre Blatche left, and Favors has average offensive power.

Outside point guard Deron Williams was injured in the regular season and wasn't playing at his best, shooting low percentage.

Although Joe Johnson had 16.5 points, 4 rebounds and 4.8 assists, he shot only 36.2% from the field and 29.3% from three-point range in the playoffs.

Yao Ming's contract expires, and even if he doesn't retire, the next contract won't be too big. The Nets have failed to win championships for several years in a row and are ready to rebuild in the summer.

The Wizards are stronger than last season, with good players at all positions, and the problem of fewer three-point points has been solved.

John Wall's performance disappointed fans a little, with 17.4 points, 4.7 rebounds and 11 assists, shooting 39.1% from the field and 17.6% from three-point range.

The Wizards' highest-rated is Klay Thompson, who averages 22.3 points per game, shoots 43.2% from three-point range in the playoffs, shoots 3.1 per game, and can shoot one meter outside the three-point line.

The Cavaliers defeated the Pistons 4-2 in the first round and were eliminated by the Hawks 2-4 in the second round.

In this playoffs, James incarnated as Iverson, averaging 27.2 shots per game, shooting 41.7% from the field, 22.7% from three-point range, and only 73.1% from the free throw line, with 30.1 points, 11.3 rebounds, 8.5 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.1 blocks.

Due to the inconsistency of his long-range shots, James' killer move still forced a breakthrough. The Hawks' response strategy is to fight with one person close to each other, and then one person interferes with James at the moment of the ball. Because he was resisted, it was difficult for James to jump to the highest point with limited force, and it was easy to be interfered with by the help defense. If his teammates are strong, James will divide the ball, and now he doesn't have a second big man around him.

The Hawks have DeMar Carroll, a macho man who is good at confrontation, and has squeezed Wiggins to the bench as the sixth man.

The 203CM Carroll debuted with the Lakers and could only be a marginal man, but after a few teams, he practiced his three-point shot, and his weight increased from 98 kg when he first entered the league to 104 kg, becoming a 3D player.

Carroll did a good job of single defense, allowing James to expose the shortcomings of slow turning and slow change of direction brought about by his strong body. The guard dribbles low and has a low center of gravity, and he can change direction and speed as he wants during the dribbling, but James can't, because he is tall and has a lot of inertia, and what he is good at is breaking through by power.

If he enters the finals full of injuries, even if he hits iron, James will be highly praised, and in the second round, James will be eliminated as a lone hero, which is too much.

After the game, the emperor's new clothes were revealed, and Mark Stein, a well-known ESPN reporter with 25 years of experience in interviewing and voting rights for the MVP of the Finals, said that James could not lead the team to win and said that James had great disrespect for head coach David Blatter.

The commonly used word in the media is "informed sources", but this time Stein directly tore his face and sprayed James shirtless. "I saw him refute Blatter at the highest volume you could imagine, and he really thought he was the emperor."

Stein cited a series of James' misdeeds, from pushing Blatter away in the regular season, "let me talk to the referees", to showing off the cart in the playoffs, erasing Blatter's tactics, constantly refuting Blatter, and saying "give me the ball" to his teammates. It all stems from James's honey confidence, for him, Blatter, who has made a name for himself in Europe, is just a rookie and not trustworthy at all.

James has been with the Cavaliers for too long, has his interests, and he wants to get more of a voice. He was unhappy with the Cavaliers management's operation, whether it was a trade or a free agent signing, he wanted to get involved. He is unhappy with the coaching staff and will equally dismiss it nakedly.

In the NBA, it's not news that big names are blowing up coaches and falling out with general managers. Michael Jordan will angrily call Bulls general manager Jerry Krause a fool and ask owner Reinsdorf to let Kraus go; "Magic" Johnson, who even teamed up with his teammates to get rid of head coach Pat Riley; Jason Kidd has also chased away Byron Scott.

However, there has never been a star like James, who often dismantles the coach's desk while being unwilling to ask the management for a change of coach. This is what the media can't understand the most, since James complains about Blatter, why not force the palace to let Blatter go? He is fully capable of this and can also make this request.

Now Stein has made this question clear, and he thinks that this is the most real James, who has had completely different sides since he entered the NBA, and he is a hypocritical person to the extreme.

As early as high school, James was too tightly packaged by commerce, resulting in him living in a beautiful metal shell without a hint of true temperament.

On the one hand, James has never really admired any Cavaliers coach and has constantly shown himself to be strong; On the other hand, he tried to be a perfect player and did not want to leave any truth for the outside world, so he never publicly asked for a change of manager.

Of course, there is no such thing as a perfect player, everything James shows is a role he deduces, fake big empty, even if Stein doesn't break the news today, one day in the future, someone will also point out the problem.

Just like in Yang Rui's previous life, James was known as going to the Heat to play brother basketball for 10 years, don't everyone say that he is in a group?

James returned to the Cavaliers in 14 and said it was for his hometown. If it weren't for the Heat brothers' declining state and unable to win the championship, if it weren't for the Cavaliers being able to exchange for young potential stars such as Love and Irving, and the team's salary expenditure of more than 100 million, would he be willing to go back?

When the Big Three first formed the team, James promised to "hold hands and look at the sky one step at a time, two steps, three steps and four steps, and watch the trophies one two or three or four connected in a line", he may have forgotten, but some fans can remember it.

Especially Zhan Hei, I will never forget it.
