: One thousand one hundred and eighty-two: the finals about historical status

   The Grizzlies finally defeated the Warriors. The duel between the two teams with the best regular season record this season finally came to fruition.

  Of course, Oakland fans won't like this result. Watching Link win the Western Conference Championship trophy at their home court, they were extremely lost.

   Last season, Durant suddenly announced that he had jumped out of his contract to join the Warriors. The Warriors won an incredible 74 wins in the regular season, and finally eliminated the Grizzlies in the playoffs and successfully won the championship.

   For the Warriors fans, last season was too dreamy, dreamy and unrealistic, and smooth and unbelievable.

   And now, this dream finally woke up.

   Durant's arrival did not allow the Warriors to completely rule the alliance. The use of small ball tactics did not make the Warriors stand on top.

   Durant lost to Link, and the Warriors' small lineup lost to the Grizzlies' traditional twin tower lineup.

   After waking up from the dream, there is only cruel reality to meet them.

   No matter who this year's championship is, it has nothing to do with the Golden State Warriors.

   They have become the biggest loser of the season, with nowhere to hide.

   The Grizzlies won the Western Conference Finals, which is known to have the highest gold content in history, and took away all the honors.

   The Warriors, with the strongest paper lineup in the league, lost to the opponent who shouldn’t lose.

   While the Warriors fans were still worried about being humiliated by Link, Link had already turned his attention to the East.

   For him, the Golden State Warriors are a thing of the past. He has won the final battle, and there is no need to continue with the Warriors.

   Next, Link needs to pay attention to another opponent!

  Before the Grizzlies, the Cleveland Cavaliers easily defeated the Celtics without Thomas by a total score of 4-1.

   It's just that the news of James' promotion did not cause much disturbance and attention.

  Although the Cavaliers have only lost one game from the first round to the finals, they have an excellent record of 12 wins and 1 loss, one less loss than the Grizzlies.

   But with the strength gap between the eastern and western teams, the Cavaliers' performance did not get much praise.

   At that time, the eyes of the whole world were on the Grizzlies and Warriors game.

   It wasn't until Link said the phrase "It's our time, LeBron" that everyone's attention finally shifted to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

   At this time, people suddenly discovered that this is already LeBron James, since 2011, leading his team to the finals for seven consecutive years!

   Leading the team to the Finals for seven consecutive years means that James has won the Eastern Conference championship for seven consecutive years.

   has won the Eastern Conference for nearly ten years. He is definitely the most terrifying Eastern King in NBA history.

   The last time someone was able to reach the finals for seven consecutive years, it also dates back to the period when Bill Russell, an ancient monster, played.

   Logically speaking, reaching the finals for seven consecutive years, this should be a great honor for James' career.

   But now, this record makes James quite embarrassed.

   He has only won one championship in the previous six finals trips! The low winning rate of James in the finals made him appear to have reached the finals for seven consecutive years. The gold content of the event did not seem so high. Instead, it became a topic of ridicule.

  In the NBA, it doesn't work to dominate a division. You must win the championship and defeat all your opponents in order to gain people's respect.

   No one cares about who the division champion is in a certain year, only the championship is what everyone looks for.

   Among the past five finals losses of James, three of them were given to him by Link!

   It was he who watched Link fail from an unknown draft and established a dynasty, using everyone as a background board.

   Until now, James still has a grudge about it.

  In the beginning, he wanted to be the greatest player of this era. But obviously, it is now impossible.

   He is 32 and a half years old, and he doesn't have much time to contend with Link.

   But even so, James didn't want to become a foil for Link, or Karl Malone in Link's era.

   So, even if you can't be the greatest player of this era, you still have to be one of the greatest!

   And just a championship is obviously not convincing.

   James has witnessed Link's three consecutive championships as a foil. This time, he will not let the chance of winning the championship slip away from him!

   After the Western Conference finals, the world's attention followed Link to the finals.

   James is still considered one of the strongest players in the league, but most people feel that the Cavaliers have little hope of winning the championship.

   "The Cleveland Cavaliers still have a devastating offensive in the east, but I still don't think they can compete with the Grizzlies."

   "The Grizzlies are too mature. They have advantages in every aspect. If even the Warriors can't stop the Grizzlies, then the Cavaliers won't have much chance."

   "LeBron is a hero, but he is a tragic hero. Everyone knows how much he desires a championship, but the championship cannot be won by desire alone."

It has been a long time since the NBA Finals have had such a one-sided comment. Even if the Cavaliers have only lost one game in three rounds in the Eastern Conference, even if James is strong enough to reach the Finals for seven consecutive years, everyone is still not optimistic about them. .

   As if the finals were just a cutscene, the moment the Grizzlies defeated the Warriors, it was equivalent to winning the O'Brien Cup.

   But Link doesn’t think so. He knows very well that this year’s James will burst out even more powerful than before!

   First of all, in terms of statistics, the Grizzlies have ranked second in the league in offensive efficiency and true shooting percentage since playing in the playoffs this year.

   And these two ranked first in the league, it is precisely the Cleveland Cavaliers! They are definitely not an opponent that can be underestimated.

  Secondly, after the three rounds of this year, James has surpassed Michael Jordan's "god" in total points in the playoffs, ranking first in the league!

   Therefore, this year's finals is also a battle to determine the historical status of James.

   took the record for the highest total points in the playoffs but lost the championship, then this record will soon be forgotten by people.

   But if he takes the record and wins, James will definitely become the most watched star in the league again.

   These reasons are enough to ensure James’ belief in victory.

  Any team with LeBron James is by no means easy to deal with. During this year's regular season, both sides also won each other once, and the Grizzlies failed to sweep the Cavaliers.

   So after the end of the Western Conference Finals, Link and his teammates did not rest for a day, and began to prepare for the finals without stopping.

   For James, it was just a battle to establish a historical position. For Link, what is it?

  Only by winning this championship, Link has the capital to talk about surpassing Jordan.

Therefore, Link told everyone on the first day of training: "If anyone believes in the **** of the media, then who is the number one idiot in the world. The Cleveland Cavaliers are definitely not as unbearable as they say, they are not worse than the Warriors. Strong opponent."

   In addition to reminding teammates in words~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Link also set an example in training and played a leading role.

   Link knows very well that pride and arrogance will not help the finals at all! The Dallas Mavericks, who were also not optimistic back then, turned the Heat, which had a stronger lineup on paper, to the ground.

   Finals, it is also possible to burst out upsets.

   He reminds his teammates all the time that he can't relax before he wins the championship.

   Finally, on May 31, 2017, the day before the NBA Finals kicked off, all the Cleveland Cavaliers arrived in Memphis!

   Although last year was interrupted for a year, James is still impressed with Memphis. In the past five finals, James and Memphis have been enemies for three years.

   The Cavaliers are very serious. They all know that this time they must never lose again!

   It has been two seasons since James returned to the Cavaliers. In both seasons, they failed to win the O'Brien Cup.

   As the saying goes, there are only three things. If the Cavaliers lose the finals for the third consecutive year, God knows how this team will change.

   God knows if James will make a decision 3.0.

   Therefore, for the Cavaliers, this year's finals also have a bit more flavor of the last fight.

   But even so, few people still take the Cavaliers seriously. Before the game, experts predicted that the Grizzlies' championship rate was as high as 93%!

   The next day, on the night of Children’s Day, June 1, in the first game of the finals, the Cleveland Cavaliers scared everyone.

   Their determination surpassed everyone's expectations.
