Chapter 363 Interview after the game, unlucky old man!
"The game is over! The Suns used Chen's another runaway victory to grab an away victory. With this victory, they also got the match point in the finals!" Barkley made the final summary in the commentary box.
"Chen's performance tonight was impeccable. He not only scored 50 points but also sent 9 assists. The Cavaliers tried their best but couldn't restrain this guy!" Kenny Smith said.
"That's right, two consecutive 50s, this guy regards the finals as his own show." Barkley said with a smile, he was very satisfied with the performance of this Sun junior.
Kenny Smith did not forget to mention the Cavaliers playing at home: "The Cleveland Cavaliers also deserved to win. They played very bloody tonight until the last minute. LeBron James also played the best performance of the series. Today
He scored 45 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds tonight."
The g3 Cavaliers played at home and had the help of referees. It can be said that they gathered the right people at the right time, but even so, they still couldn't beat the Suns.
To use the classic saying of Hadron, I give you a chance, but you are useless!
After this game, Cavaliers fans no longer have any illusions about them.
Just sweep it, it's not like the Cavaliers have never been swept in the finals anyway...
There was also a little tidbit at the end of the game. When Chen Yan passed through the player tunnel, some Cavaliers fans poured water on Chen Yan to vent their anger.
The fans who acted excessively were immediately controlled and taken out of the stadium by security personnel.
Such tidbits could not affect Chen Yan's mood. After returning to the locker room, he and his teammates celebrated winning the championship in advance.
The Suns are only one step away from the championship. For their players, this championship seems to be easier to win than the Western Conference championship.
Post-match press conference.
The reporter asked Mike Brown: "Coach, what does 0-3 mean to you and the team?"
Mike Brown, the fat black man, curled his lips. Even if he knew that the team had no hope of making a comeback, as the coach, he would not say depressing words in such a public place.
Mike Brown held up the microphone and said: "We have to look forward. The series is not over yet. We have to fight for this city and the fans who support us."
Mike Brown did not dare to answer reporters' questions directly, so he could only move the city and fans out.
However, the reporter did not intend to let Mike Brown go, and continued to ask: "Will the Cavaliers be swept? In this way, you will become the first team in history to be swept in the finals for two consecutive years."
The reporter's venomous tongue made Mike Brown very embarrassed. He held up the microphone and replied: "We will go all out and forget about the total score to actively prepare for the upcoming G4."
James's pressure was very low when he was asked by reporters.
James said in his deep voice: "This is a very unacceptable ending. We tried our best but still suffered a defeat, but we cannot be discouraged. The series is not over yet. I hope that the defeat of this game will
It stings us.”
After a short celebration, the Suns' post-game press conference also began.
The reporter asked D'Antoni: "Coach, the Suns are currently leading 3-0 with a total score. Do you feel that the series has been won in advance?"
D'Antoni shook his head: "The total score of 3-0 makes me happy but it will not let me slack off. We will go all out to play the fourth game, just like the first three games."
The reporter then asked: "You encountered a fierce counterattack by the Cavaliers in the fourth quarter and were almost reversed, but in the end you still managed to win the game. Can you share your mood at the moment?"
D'Antoni replied: "This is the home court of the Cavaliers. When they narrowed the point difference a little bit, the shouts of the fans gave us a great sense of oppression. However, the Suns have the best players in the league, and we withstood it."
We overcame the pressure and won a crucial victory.”
The reporter continued to ask: "Coach, Chen scored 50 points again in this game. Is it the tactic you arranged before the game to let him play a large number of singles and fire without limit?"
D'Antoni said with a smile: "I remember that the tactic I arranged was to let Chen open his personal account and then lead the whole team, but he seemed to only hear the first half of the sentence."
"Hahahaha!" The reporter burst into laughter after hearing this.
D'Antoni was in a good mood after winning the game and laughed with the reporters.
The reporter turned to Nash and asked: "Steve, this is the closest you've ever been to a championship in your career. If the Suns sweep the Cavaliers and win the championship, will you regret that it's not in Phoenix or your home court?"
Nash smiled: "Not at all. It doesn't matter where I win the championship. I just want to feel the weight of the O'Brien Cup. I have been longing for this moment for a long time."
Nash has made no secret of his desire for a championship, which is the honor he has been chasing throughout his career.
Nash is a bit like Iverson. They have no shortage of personal honors. If they can win the championship trophy at the end of their careers, it would be an extremely wonderful thing for such players.
After D'Antoni and Nash answered the questions, it was Chen Yan's turn.
"Chen, how do you feel about scoring 50 in the finals again?"
"Great! First of all, I have to thank my coaches and teammates. They created so much space for me, allowing me to attack the basket as I pleased."
The reporters were not too surprised by Chen Yan's modesty, because this guy's interview style is to suppress first and then raise, and they had already adapted to it.
"Chen, do you think you will become the second player after Magic to win the FMVP in his rookie season?"
Chen Yan smiled: "I don't want me to think, I want you to think, after all, the right to vote is not in my hands."
The finals mvp is chosen by vote. NBA officials let some reporters present vote. These votes are all registered, and then the votes are tallied. The player with the most votes becomes the winner of the finals mvp.
Although this is quite subjective, most reporters will vote for the player with the highest scoring average per game on the winning side, so Chen Yan has great hopes of winning FMVP.
"Chen, what do you think about the Cavaliers fans throwing water at you in the player tunnel?"
Chen Yan replied bluntly: "It can only be said that I did a good job and made them hate me enough. I know the fans in Cleveland don't want to see me, so I will work hard to resolve the battle in G4."
The reporter's last question is about his opponent James.
"LeBron James had an overall performance of 4555 tonight. Do you think the Suns have a good way to limit him?"
Chen Yan shook his head: "No, you can't defend me just like you."
After hearing this answer, the reporters laughed. For a while, they couldn't tell whether Chen Yan was bragging about James or himself.
...
...
"Chen Yan scored another 50 and led his team to win the match point!"
"James returns to court and suffers another defeat!"
"The little emperor's outbreak makes it difficult for the savior, and the knights are gone!"
"The Suns are waiting for the championship? No one can come back from a 0-3 deficit!"
"O'Neal is in a sluggish state, and the Czar combination may come to an end."
"Chen Yan locked in FMVP, the first person in Asian basketball history!"
The next day, Moupu, Zhalang, and UC posted all kinds of news about celebrating in advance, which already blew Chen Yan to the sky.
"Chen Yan is awesome!"
"A pure scoring machine!"
"The NBA is going to change, and the run-and-gun team is going to win the championship!"
"Times have changed, and offense can also win!"
Netizens also left messages one after another.
G4 is still played at the Quicken Loans Center, home of the Cavaliers, so all Suns players remain in Cleveland.
There are only two days of rest before the start of G4. In these two days, Chen Yan has not been anywhere except the hotel and the arena.
His parents have been staying in the hotel these two days. The public security in Cleveland is not good and it is one of the ten most dangerous cities in the United States. Chen Yan plans to take his parents to have fun after winning the finals and returning to Phoenix.
Time quickly came to June 14th, the day when the finals G4 started!
In the locker room, the Suns players were already studying how to hold the cup.
Winning the first three games gave them huge confidence.
The game progressed as smoothly as expected.
Halftime is over.
Phoenix Suns 59:45 Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Suns entered halftime with a 14-point lead.
Less than a minute into the second half, Larry Hughes, the Cavaliers' second leading scorer in the series, fell to the ground in pain during a scramble.
Larry Hughes' injury and retirement made the already difficult team even worse.
What is very ironic is that a few hours before the game started, Larry Hughes was interviewed by Sports Illustrated and jokingly said: "Oh! My God! This is so unlucky. People who are on the cover of magazines always have bad luck.
Why did you choose me?"
Now his prophecy has come true and he has really become the unlucky guy he said.
