Chapter 680 This B is dressed beautifully
For the home team, Ji Guomeng, Lei Allen and Billups attended the post-match press conference.
The media's eyes were all focused on Ji Guomo, and the vigor on the dead fox's face could be seen by the blind man.
After Ji Guomeng sat down, he smiled and said, "The Nets performed very well. Their triangular offense is very powerful. Although I can't tell what tactics they are playing, everyone just needs to know that they are very powerful." The Dead Fox said it very much, and then he said, "Actually, the outcome of this game is not very important to us. We are focusing on the playoffs and the fourth champion. A mere three consecutive championships will not satisfy us."
The reporters cursed in their hearts: "This guy pretends to be beautiful and can give you 100 points."
Ji Guochou had already returned to the team's bus with his teammates and was preparing to go directly to the airport to return to New York. Beside him was Bledsoe, who performed well today. The giant panda was going to teach this rookie a good lesson on the road.
He knew that Bledsoe performed so well, and the media would definitely hype Bledsoe tomorrow.
However, the two brothers have long known what the media is. As long as Bledsoe performs poorly in any game, he will be kicked down from the clouds by the media. Once this time comes, can Bledsoe still face setbacks with a good attitude?
Many players have similar experiences. When they entered the league, they performed very well and were immediately praised by the media. The scripts followed have happened countless times. If the rookies perform well, they will definitely encounter targeting. As a result, they hit the rookie wall and in a blink of an eye they become meteors that are worthless in the media and never recover.
A poor boy like Bledsoe, whose childhood experiences that are unbearable to look back, will easily expand under the control of the media after they succeed, and will be proud of themselves in the early praise, thus losing themselves. When they fail, they will arouse inferiority in their hearts. Such a world of ice and fire can easily make them die by the media, and there are too many examples.
In the Nets' preseason, Bledsoe, the little black man, was the most unexpected discovery in the eyes of fans. He was so active. His terrifying explosiveness and speed were also the most easily discovered ability. Fans like violent players like Bledsoe the most.
Bledsoe's enthusiasm and motivation come from his difficult childhood. Many black players from the bottom-class American society experienced difficult and difficult lives that were unbearable to look back on when they were young, and Eric Bledsoe was no exception.
Perhaps, all the hardships you have heard before can be copied to Bledsoe. And what you can't imagine has happened to him.
Bledsoe's mother, Maureen Reddick, was interviewed by a New York media before the start of the regular season. When recalling Bledsoe's childhood, she cried into tears. She felt that she was sorry for her son...
Many people cannot imagine how poor Bledso's family is, although there are many such things in China.
Maureen said: "At that time, the wooden sofa in the room was dragged back from the scrap purchase station. Eric said he wanted to sleep on the sofa and listen to the radio, but at that time, the sofa at home could not afford it, even second-hand goods could not be afforded. Later, I asked his uncle to drag one to the scrap purchase station."
But if you drag it from the scrap purchase station, you have to pay a certain amount of money. Maureen has no money and her younger brother has no money. She thought about it and finally encouraged her younger brother. She asked him to reach his hand into the pockets of passers-by.
"I admit that in addition to this, I have done some wrong things, and I don't know how to explain them. My starting point at that time was just to satisfy my son." To this day, when recalling these past events, Maureen is still somewhat difficult to say. She knew that some of her actions back then were contrary to social morality and even illegal.
But Maureen's difficulties at that time were completely understandable. At that time, Bledsoe was only six years old.
In fact, the wooden sofa did not accompany Bledsoe for too long.
Maureen took Bledsoe to live in a small town in Birmingham, Alabama, which was almost a place that whites would not go to. There were many poor and poor black people gathered in the town. From time to time, there were rumors that "So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-
Once, heavy rainstorms came, and after that, Maureen took Bledsoe to live a wandering life - the small brick house where she lived was washed away by the heavy rain.
The mother and son had no money to rent a house. After living in several relatives' houses for several months, Maureen gritted her teeth and simply left the town. She went out to work, hoping to make some money and then come back to take her son out of this hellish town.
During the days when he left his mother, Bledsoe began to be excluded by his relatives, and his food and drink had to be helped by his relatives. After a long time, no one was willing to reach out. Bledsoe was less than eight years old at the time, but he was particularly strong. He could not stand the unrestrained eyes of those poor relatives, so he simply chose to run away from home.
A broken truck from a scrap iron processing plant in the town became Bledsoe's "home".
He collected waste fabrics and plastic paper everywhere, set up a simple tent on the truck, then moved a waste quilt, and began a life like a beggar. Later, the broken truck was towed away, and Bledsoe could only find a "new nest" again
Maureen recalled that as far as she knew, Bledsoe had lived in a horse stand, and a duty hut at the railway ramp.
A poor child like Bledsoe is almost impossible to have any friends. Every day, only basketball is with Bledsoe - he regards that basketball as precious as life. "I can't imagine what he would do every day if there was no basketball at that time. Maybe he would go on the road of no return," Maureen continued to recall.
She also said that when she later learned that the basketball was Bledsoe who gave the gun for the gang members and used the few dollars of remuneration she earned to exchange, she cried bitterly...
Fortunately, everything was over, and Bledsoe's life eventually changed drastically due to basketball. Due to his outstanding skills, he later entered the local high school in Birmingham and then entered the basketball school Kentucky, and then entered the NBA from Kentucky. Finally, in the first round of 2010, the Timberwolves selected him and immediately traded him to the Los Angeles Clippers in exchange for second place Evan Turner. This was why Bledsoe's outstanding debut today.
The Clippers defeated the Nets without a close eye. On this day, not only did the Clippers vs. Nets, but the Miami Heat vs. Cleveland Cavaliers game will be held in half an hour. The "defection incident" that caused a lot of controversy in the summer makes the attention of this game no less than the "animal war".
Today is the first time in LeBron James' career that he has begun his journey as a Heat, which is also the resumption of the Cavaliers in the post-emperor era since they turned from elites to grassroots. This scene was originally like you walking on your Yangguan Road and I walking on my single-plank bridge. But in fact, it is far more than that simple.
Because James was cursed by a local radio host in Cleveland to look for a witch doctor.
The news comes from the Associated Press. The local Cleveland host allegedly spent money to hire a witch doctor to curse James in order to relieve the hatred of the Cavaliers being abandoned by LeBron this summer. He received support from fans across the city.
The Heat will come to Cleveland to challenge the Cavaliers today. The Curse is said to be specially arranged to be held a few hours before the game, and the radio also broadcasts the Curse Ceremony live.
It is described that the witch doctor sprinkled some bones and blood on James' jersey to curse the two-time MVP.
Xia Tianzhe James made his choice through espn's live broadcast, and since then he fell into the whirlpool of Cleveland's criticism.
His jersey was burned in the street by fans, and the huge advertisement was torn off. He was also called a coward, a traitor, etc. by the Cavaliers boss.
Many people once thought that James, who was at the forefront of the storm at that time, would have time to dilute everything as long as he endured himself. But it turned out that this period would be very long, at least three months was not enough, because before he even stepped onto the court, James was first cursed.
The Emperor's defection and demonstration live broadcast made the Cavaliers fans hostile to him. Before the game started, some fans gathered in public to burn his jerseys and billboards. The local networks and paper media in Cleveland also overwhelmed the spoofs and accusations against James.
The city of Cleveland regarded James as an enemy at this time, and the person involved was not to be outdone in an interview with the media and counterattacked: "I know the people there are full of hostility towards me and the atmosphere is very tense, but none of these will prevent me from striking Cleveland."
James' tough attitude puzzled many people. He has been in Cleveland for 7 years. Will he not have any feelings? How could he turn against each other so quickly?
The little emperor has always been reluctant to mention the real reason for his departure from the Knights. However, in a recent interview with a magazine, James finally opened his heart and revealed the reason why he went away from home. It turned out that he had always hated Cleveland, who was regarded as the "emperor" bedroom.
In a recent interview, James talked about the city of Akron where he grew up for the first time. He said that he understood why so many people in Cleveland were angry because of his decision. In the growth process that James recalled, he and his friends from Akron had not liked Cleveland very much since childhood. He hated this city 40 kilometers south of Akron.
"It doesn't seem far, but it's very far away," James said. "Cleveland is a big city, so Clevelanders who grew up in big cities often always look down on us. Actually, I hated Cleveland when I was a kid, and until now, I still hate some Cleveland people."
Regarding Akron, who grew up in childhood, James said he will stay here forever. "I will spend a lot of holidays here, and this is my home, Akron, Ohio, I will be here forever, and I will still go back to my former high school to train in the future."
At the same time, James also mentioned the enthusiastic Cleveland fans, who still appreciated the kind Cleveland fans' goodness to him. But at the same time, he also said that he would not revoke the remarks mentioned at the end of last season that he had spoiled some fans.
"I love the fans here, but what I want to say is that even my family will be spoiled by some of the things I do on or off the court." James also responded to the incident of Cleveland fans burning their Cavaliers' jerseys after switching to the Heat. "I think those who burned my jerseys may never be my fans."
Finally, when talking about the open letter from the Cavaliers boss, James said, "I don't think he cared about me. My mom always told me, 'When you are in trouble, you will see their true nature, and you can learn something from it.' And my family and I have seen the true face of this man."
James then added: "Gilbert's reaction made me feel more comfortable because I made the right decision and let him go to hell."
In the 2010-2011 season, the Cavaliers only have two games to be broadcast live across the United States, and the first game was against the Heat. This made James look forward to this game extremely, and there was only one reason: the open letter from Cavaliers boss Dan Gilbert allowed James to see clearly "the true face of this man", which would become his huge motivation when facing the Cavaliers.
Speaking of Cavaliers boss Dan Gilbert, he is undoubtedly the one who is most out of control this summer. He first exposed to reporters many scandals such as James deliberately giving up the game in the playoffs. Then he wrote an open letter, completely breaking his face with James.
Gilbert's open letter,
Dear Cleveland, all the Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers supporters, as you know, our former heroes, who grew up in this area are no longer Cavaliers. This was announced by him on TV, his narcissistic, self-promotional announcement. Obviously, it was disappointing for us. The good news is that the remaining team management is working hard and loyal. The Cavaliers have not betrayed you and will never betray you. There will be a lot to tell you in the future, and the future will be very exciting. We will tell you later. You should not suffer such a cowardly betrayal. You have paid too much and deserve more. At the same time, I want to make a statement tonight:
"I personally promise that the Cleveland Cavaliers will win a championship before the man who once called himself the 'Emperor'"
You can get (this promise) to the bank to fulfill it.
If you think we were motivated before today, I can tell you that this shameful, selfish decision from our own people has brought our motivation to unprecedented heights. Some people think they should go to heaven. But they don't need death to get there. Sorry, but that's the easiest way now.
This is a reverse lesson from our own shockingly unfaithful behavior of “the chosen man”. We used to hope that our child would be “him”. But the good news is that this ruthless and unrighteous behavior would be “cursed” by Cleveland, Ohio. This self-proclaimed former “emperor” would be “cursed” in the South (Miami) until Cleveland and Ohio did the “right” thing to him, and he would be unfortunate and suffer retribution.
Wait and see. Good night, Cleveland. Tomorrow is a new day. I promise you that our energy, attention, capital, knowledge, and experience will be used in one thing: give you a championship that you have been worthy of and have been waiting for for a long time...
Dan Gilbert.
Cleveland Cavaliers boss.
It was such an open letter that made James completely rebellious with Cleveland. From his position, James felt that he had done nothing wrong. In the eyes of Cavaliers fans, James' departure was considered a sin, so he should be cursed.
The opening match between the Heat and the Cavaliers began in such a hustle and bustle, but ended in the disappointment of the Big Three.
The game between the Heat Big Three vs. Cleveland Cavaliers was arranged after the Clippers and Nets. However, the Miami Heat, who is determined to win the championship, made a bad start and finally shouted "Traitors" and "Judas" in the whole game, and the Quick Loan Center, which lost 92:93, and Wade's final three-pointer failed.
The Heat's post-match statistics are like a typical "Cavs" tragedy: James scored 30 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists and 8 turnovers, Wade made 4 of 16 shots, 15 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, Bosh made 3 of 11 shots, 12 points and 7 rebounds.
In fact, although James scored 30 points, it was his repeated mistakes and repeated free throws at the beginning of the game that made the Heat passive. The "Emperor" was very unfamiliar with Bosh and Wade. The eight mistakes in the game made his answer very bad. I don't know if the curse took effect.
Today's "Fast Loan Center" has become the stadium with the highest noise decibel value in the league. After official Guinness measurement, the Clevelanders shouted at the stadium as high as 1.5 decibels, and it was recorded in the Guinness World Record with the new "Highest Noise Record in the Indoor Sports Hall". It can be seen how much their hatred for James has reached. The media predicted that at least one-tenth of Cleveland fans today cursed and hoarsely.
James and the other two giants lost themselves under such noises, and their shooting felt so bad.
James came back to his senses in the second half. At the end of the third quarter, he led the substitute players to continuously narrow the gap, and he scored 15 points in the quarter. But during this period, the Heat completely became the Cavaliers of the year, relying on James alone to charge, and the others only waited for the "Emperor" to pass the ball and then shot three-pointers.
When James was in a trend of snatching power, Wade, as a spiritual leader, seemed very confused and eager to prove that his "Flash" rushed into the inside again and again, replacing his shooting percentage of 4 of 16 shots.
"We're not at our own pace at all," Wade said in a little frustrated after the game. "LeBron told me that this is my first preseason game, but I just can't find the form."
Bosh, one of the Heat's "Big Three", also made only 3 of 11 shots. He said: "It's too noisy here, we just can't score goals."
For the Heat, the concerns that people are all arguing in this game.
First of all, the "Big Three" were not combined into a whole. Not only did they rarely appear at the same time, but they attacked more by their personal abilities; secondly, the Heat's inadequate inside line was completely suppressed by the Cavaliers, Brand, Valaijo, and even JJ Hickson could easily beat the Heat's inside line; finally, the role players could not play their role, Mike Miller was injured in the preseason, and the Heat didn't even have a decent pitcher, with a bunch of basic-paid players and veterans on the bench.
Although after the game, James said: "Roma was not built in one day", and Heat coach Spolstra also said: "Every day, we will try to become better, which takes time." But to be fair, the "Big Three" who came together to win the championship do not leave them much time to get in.
The Cavaliers fans were the happy side, and after the game they loudly laughed at the dirt-faced James.
Chapter completed!
