Chapter 365 Sweeping to win the championship, the times have changed!
In the final quarter, the Suns first sent out their substitute lineup to fight.
The Cavaliers unexpectedly sent out all their main players except O'Neal.
By Game 4 of the Finals, Mike Brown completely gave up on the Shark King duo.
The Shark King combination is more of a gimmick, and the effect is not good when James and O'Neal are on the court at the same time.
O'Neal's condition declined seriously, and he was unable to open up space for James to break through.
The 36-year-old O'Neal's physical fitness is also a big hole. Especially in a fast-paced offense and defense like the Suns, O'Neal's physical strength cannot support him to play the entire game.
As soon as James came up, he made a breakthrough and scored two points.
In the next round, James took advantage of the screen and made an emergency stop from mid-range and hit!
In the blink of an eye, the score difference came to within 20 points.
James played very hard in the second half. He was fighting for the fans on the one hand, but more importantly, he was fighting for his reputation.
If James is swept in the finals for two consecutive seasons, his historical evaluation will definitely decline.
James cherishes his feathers more than anyone else, which is absolutely unacceptable to him.
When Chen Yan saw that the knights still had thoughts of resistance, he tossed the towel and applied for the fight.
Suns coach D'Antoni didn't dare to neglect, and replaced Chen Yan, Stoudemire, Diaw and Laga Bell on the next dead ball.
Nash's back injury has recurred, and D'Antoni is ready to let him rest for a while.
Currently, Barea serves as the team's point guard.
Chen Yan found an opportunity as soon as he came up, and after catching the ball, he made a dry shot.
"Whoa!"
There was no forward motion in this pull-up, and the ball went in very crisply!
"What a ball! He scored as soon as he came on the field. It's really amazing!" Zhang Lili exclaimed.
"This is the characteristic of Chen Yan. He may not score high scores in every game, but whenever the team needs him, he is always the first one to stand up." Director Xu also praised.
In the very next round, Chen Yan sent out an assist that looked all the way.
Nash is not present, and he has to take on more organizational responsibilities.
Barea took the ball and shot a three-pointer, very decisive!
"Whoa!"
Chen Yan had an immediate effect as soon as he came on the field, and the point difference widened to more than 20 points again.
Knight's attack round.
Gibson and James made mistakes in their transmission, and Chen Yan successfully stole the ball with quick eyes and hands.
James quickly chased back, trying to prevent Chen Yan from counterattacking.
Chen Yan single-handedly entered the penalty area and sensed that James was catching up, so he quickly braked.
James had to slow down to avoid a rear-end collision.
At this time, Chen Yan suddenly started again and flew to lick the basket.
It was such a change of rhythm that easily solved James' chase!
In this series, James tried to chase Chen Yan more than once, but never succeeded.
The Cavaliers made another mistake on offense in the next round.
James wanted to chase points, but the teammates around him had obviously lost their fighting spirit.
Barea stole the ball and rushed forward, advancing very quickly!
Barea doesn't have Nash's organizational and shooting abilities, but he has energy that Nash doesn't have.
After quickly pushing past the center circle, Barea accurately found Chen Yan.
During the counterattack, Chen Yan caught the ball and hit a three-pointer with a sniper shot!
The Cavaliers fans closed their eyes in despair, allowing Chen Yan to take an open shot at this position. How to defend against it?
"Whoa!"
The sound of a basketball passing through the net sounded again.
The score difference is already close to 30 points.
The Cavaliers have not scored for three consecutive rounds. In order to stop the bleeding and make the scene less ugly, James chose to pick and roll and then switch to the back to play Barea.
But James didn't expect that his bullying behavior would make the situation with the Cavaliers even more ugly.
James' back-up skills during this period were so rough. Facing Barea, whose real height was only 177cm, he actually pushed the Puerto Rican twice without pushing him!
The third time James suddenly became fierce and took the initiative to hit Barea's chin!
"Beep beep beep!"
The referee's urgent whistle sounded immediately!
When the whistle blew, the referee pointed directly at the Suns' offensive half.
The referee called an offensive foul on James!
James shook his head and returned to the defensive half. He did not argue with the referee because he knew that no matter how the ball was called, it would not change the trend of the game.
Barea was lying on the ground waving his fists, looking very excited. He had just made James an offensive foul on the stage of the Finals!
Chen Yan and Xiao Si quickly stepped forward and pulled Bariya up.
The sun serves.
After Chen Yan asked for the ball, he dribbled it across half court.
Two steps behind the logo, Chen Yan fired directly!
The huge lead also made Chen Yan more and more relaxed, and his moves became more bold.
Strictly speaking, this ball is considered a midfield shot.
"Oh! You voted? You are really brave for a skilled artist!"
As soon as Zhang Lili finished speaking, the basketball drew a wonderful rainbow in the air and went straight into the net!
Quicken Loans Arena went silent after the shot.
The Suns bench is in high spirits!
Chen Yan twisted his body towards his teammates on the bench and performed his signature shoulder-shaking dance.
This is not a provocation and has nothing to do with ridicule. Chen Yan is just happy.
After the ball was hit, the point difference between the two sides also came to 30.
Chen Yan used his actions to prove to the world that a new era has arrived!
The bloody meat grinder war in the restricted area is outdated. Now is the era of hot weapons such as Shennong artillery and intercontinental missiles!
Superstars never go out of style.
However, times have changed!
The Cavaliers called a timeout. After the timeout, they also withdrew all their main players, which officially declared that the game had reached garbage time.
For them, sometimes giving up is also a kind of relief...
Fans at the Cavaliers home court have already left one after another, but more fans stayed to continue cheering for the team.
This is the true die-hard fan.
Share the pain with the players when the team is in the most painful time, instead of running away with buckets or verbal abuse.
Nash continued to lie on the billboard. He originally just wanted to take a rest, but he didn't expect that he would lie down until the end of the game...
Watching the replay of Chen Yan's dance, Buckley smiled and said: "This is the first time in so many years that someone danced and won the championship."
Kenny Smith laughed after hearing this: "Hahaha, Charles, if I had given you a shooter like Chen back then, could you have killed Michael?"
After hearing Kenny Smith's words, Barkley immediately became excited: "If I had a helper like Chen around me, I would be the one showing off the number of championship rings in front of Michael now!"
"Hahaha!"
Kenny Smith laughed and listened to Barkley's bullshit during garbage time.
In the last few minutes of the game, the Suns substitutes had no intention of stopping and further expanded the score.
James directly covered his head with a towel. At this time, his inner os: I have returned to the spring and hung up, why are you still torturing the spring?
With 20 seconds left before the end of the game, all the players on the Suns bench stood up. They were about to face a historic moment!
"Du~~~~~"
On the field, when the timer hit zero, all the players rushed to the center of the field!
The final score of this game was fixed at 119 to 83.
The Suns swept the Cavaliers like an autumn wind and won the first championship in team history!
This is a landmark moment for the Suns and the entire league.
Because the Suns broke the law of defense winning championships, they used practical actions to prove that running, gunning and shooting can also win the O'Brien Trophy!
At the same time, James also won the second NBA runner-up in his career.
This will definitely have a certain impact on James' mentality. I wonder if his "Decision One" will come early because of this.
