The Godfather of Basketball

The appearance ceremony before the game, the fire dragons sprayed around the LED, and the deafening cheers all showed that the Cavaliers will do their best tonight.

After the Rockets players entered the field, they felt heavy invisible pressure around them.

Tang Tian also felt it.

"Tonight's game will be more difficult than the past three games, but believe in yourself, believe in yourself, we will be the champion." Before the game started, Tang Tian used such words to motivate the players.

After the introduction of the starting lineup before the game, players from both sides appeared one after another.

The Rockets adhered to their offensive and defensive strategies in the past three games. The offensive end continued to play empty cuts, and the defensive end shrunk inside.

This strategy still works.

Although the Cavaliers' role players are full of morale, their performance at critical times is not as good as in previous games.

Amid the sound of iron strikes, Cleveland's basket felt the home team's malice.

At halftime, the Rockets led the Cavaliers 56-40.

During the intermission, the reporters on the sidelines and the staff of the league have already started preparing for the work of awarding the championship.

But at this moment, a change happened.

This change was beyond Tang Tian's expectations.

Because it was such an accident.

Back in the second half, after James broke through several times and his teammates failed to make a shot, the "little emperor" who had been holding back for three and a half games was finally angry.

James' breakthrough lethality is the first in history, but his shooting ability at this time is below the league average. The most intuitive data is that, as a small forward, his three-point shooting percentage in this year's playoffs is only 28% , less than three CDs.

This is equivalent to saying that if you want to score a goal, you have to throw at least four more. If you throw like this in the finals, you are looking for death.

But at this moment James had no choice. Seeing the Rockets' shrinking defense, looking at Battier standing one step away from him, and then glancing at his teammates around him, he threw it directly at the top of the circle.

"boom!"

Like a thrown discus, it hit the basket heavily.

If he could talk, he would be roaring after being smashed to the basket all game long.

However, after the basketball hit the frame, it bounced onto the backboard, and then bounced into it.

James, hit his first three-pointer of the finals.

The fans were stunned for a while before they let out a burst of excited cheers.

Tang Tian was slightly taken aback, the ball was lucky.

Indeed, good luck.

The Rockets scored a goal from Yao Ming. Looking back, James still threw a three-pointer from the outside.

The discus still hit the frame, and it still bounced high. The only difference is that this time it didn't hit the backboard, but rubbed against the edge of the basket when it fell, and scored again!

"LeBron~~James!!"

The DJ at the scene chanted James' name, and he didn't know whether he was shocked or excited.

After hitting two three-pointers in a row, Battier's defense was forced to stick forward, and this time, James directly accelerated to kill.

The Rockets' defense quickly shrank, but James regarded himself as a bomb and threw it directly at the basket.

This is really life-threatening.

James rushes like a tank. If you don't give him enough interference at the moment he starts, you can only sacrifice your life to blow up the tank.

Or making fouls, or scoring, James began to change from a selfless organizer to a violent scorer.

Tang Tian watched Battier continue to shoot three-pointers on the sidelines, but he didn't expect that James' crooked three-pointers would still be accurate.

Relying on James' 6 three-pointers in a single game and his magical performance of 40 points in three quarters, the Cavaliers led the Rockets 100 to 99 by 1 point one minute before the end of the game.

"This is a unique game." The commentator on the sidelines couldn't help but sigh with emotion when he saw this.

"T-mac, you hit a ball."

"Sean, continue to shrink the defense."

At this time, Tang Tian took the tactical board and quickly arranged it.

Even though James played an incredible game, Tang Tian's expression still didn't change much.

When someone doesn't eat dumplings, don't say that this person is still James.

Sticking to his strategy, he is still full of confidence.

Back from the timeout, the Rockets' frontcourt sideline kick.

Blake served the ball to McGrady, and the Rockets pulled away from other positions. At this time, Millsap mentioned the three-point line to serve McGrady as a pick-and-roll.

McGrady made a substitution with the ball and faced Gooden.

He didn't hesitate, seeing that James on the weak side had already rushed to double-team, and directly made a three-pointer after changing direction.

James swooped in from the sideways.

After McGrady jumped up, he quickly got rid of Gooden's interference, but James' flying palm was about to catch his shot.

McGrady shot early.

The ball flew past James' fingertips and headed straight for the hoop.

Yao Ming turned around and blocked Ilgauskas at the basket, and was ready to grab the rebound.

"Shua!"

There was a crisp sound.

James' flying figure just landed, and McGrady's three-pointer passed through the net.

Three-pointer, go in!

There was a commotion at the scene.

McGrady backed away with a smile, raised his index finger in front of his mouth, and made a silent movement.

There was booing.

In the Cavaliers' offense, Battier continued to let James take a step to prevent sudden shots.

The rest of the Cavaliers still didn't have a good chance to run the pick-and-roll. James dribbled the ball and watched the less and less offensive time, and chose a three-pointer again.

"boom!"

His 10th three-point attempt ended with a strike.

Yao Ming got stuck at the basket.

But the ball was too powerful, and it hit the front of the basket. After bouncing, it went straight out. This is a long rebound!

At this moment, James flew in from the outside, jumped up and grabbed the ball across Battier.

With less than 30 seconds left in the game, James grabbed the rebound and rushed inside after landing.

Yao Ming shook off Ilgauskas and rushed towards James.

Now the point difference is only 2 points, and James must not be allowed to score this goal.

James couldn't take care of it at this time, even if it was Yao Ming, he rushed forward.

Yao Ming leaned against James, James broke through to get the ball, and didn't even get up for three steps.

Yao Ming stopped, ready to block James' ball.

But at this moment, James, who had already stepped on three steps, suddenly took another step on Yao Ming's shoulders, and followed up with a forceful shot.

Yao Ming's block just hit James' hands.

James continued to complete the layup, and the basketball hit the basket.

"beep!"

The sideline referee whistled, indicating that Yao Ming's thugs fouled.

2+1!

The Quicken Loans Arena was boiling instantly, and the fans frantically waved their white handkerchiefs.

After landing on the ground, James punched his chest twice aggressively, and shouted excitedly at the audience.

Dominate the world!

Tang Tian also jumped up excitedly at this time, but it was not at James, but at the baseline referee.

What the hell, the ball just now walked away!
