May 11, 2010, in Cleveland. LeBron - James 3 of 14 shots in the audience 15 points, six rebounds and seven assists, the Cavaliers in the Battle of King Mountain big loss to the Celtics with 32 points.
The next time he returned to Cleveland Quicken Loans playing, it is already December 2, 2010, wearing a No. 6 Miami Heat, and standing beside Wade and Chris Bosh. Day, Cleveland home playing Star Wars series song "imperial march", the meaning is clear: he was betrayed Skywalker Darth Vader, he defected to the dark side.
So you want to revert to this matter, because:
Before today's match, Oracle Arena, also broadcast this song.
But in fact is not the occasion. Warriors fans regard him as Darth - Vader kind of villain, but he has been go home. Although still owes 2010, he promised to Cleveland, "I want a championship back to Ohio," but he has gone home.
After today, I do not owe more.
Kevin - Loew played well. First section 7 rebounds, 9 points and 14 rebounds a game. He is not cast into the basket, but Curry's layup in the face of interference or not, but he did other things: offensive rebounds, rotations, tough cheat free throws.
JR Smith in the second half began two and a half scored eight points, starting completely break Yize Li - Originally, the beginning of the first half Yize Li, continuous seal Tristan and Loew's storm, but the second half, JR Smith and Owen singled, his rotations to the broken.
Warriors an opening to Yize Li and Barnes the ball. The first half against Green anti-LeBron, do a lot of routine. Former Green 5 three-pointers vote 5, there are at least three, it is to coax LeBron to fill the seats, and then return. In turn, the Knight Section, is singled out by Owen stays over.
Well, LeBron has been singled out.
The Warriors can not say do not work hard. They tried to think of speed, but the Cavaliers in addition to fast-break, the basic weight of the wearer of the bout. Not easily mistake, losing position, Warriors unlikely to recover the body. Although occasionally or two is enough: for example, the Warriors suddenly Section pressured Barbosa counterattack find that a few pointers.
Curry two minutes, it appeared very like MVP: Section III, Knight and Warrior fast break back and forth. Curry blocks, copy ball, they face Loew layup, three-pointers, was leading 5 points. But the Cavaliers the ball back to attack, Owen took over the game.
Livingston played very well: he and Andre Iguodala heart have to move the ball, stealing many hours of his own, a magnificent flying dunk.
Green played as if there Finals MVP weather. In fact, 32 points and 15 rebounds and 9 assists, 11 of 15 shots - which is listed as gorgeous NBA history data.
Then in the fourth quarter.
Today, powerful knight where is targeted to hit the second half Yize Li can not play, then put pressure on Curry made mistakes push counterattack; trench warfare, LeBron and clear wherever he goes to Owen. Then the fourth quarter, taking over himself.
Owen played, as is the need to guard LeBron organization: do not have too much ball, is not responsible for organizational tasks (FT 1 assist), but one score.
Then, LeBron fourth, 11 points.
Last time, nearly three points from the match 3 minutes, 40 seconds later, no one scores.
That's always wanted to see the world, old-fashioned game. Defense, for consumption, positional warfare. 1990s that ball. After the cut for
2016 The Finals Cleveland Cavaliers in six games, the two sides who do not want to let each other up fast.
Then, look at God. Owen right hands-third. 92 than 89. Pointers in mind that, like the 2002 finals sharks around Kobe, like around 2005 Duncan Ginobili: Do you expect underboss what, he will give you what.
At that time, balance is dumped.
And thrilling. Owen's a three-pointer. Andre Iguodala few free throws. Curry is a mistake. These decision.
LeBron always in winner-take-all state. He will always be the first where the team's big brother, have full control. If the Cavs win, you can say, LeBron finished overturned 73-win team of Albert. He is best in the world.
For Curry, if he played a gorgeous finals of the 2015-16 season for his perfect curtain call, this will be one of the greatest in NBA history a season.
And, yes: he will be the first person to take the crown when the world, firmly secured the Iron Throne.
Finals ended.
LeBron was the first person in the world. Not only that.
He gave Cleveland a championship belt back.
He is not never won a championship. 2012 and 2013 performance, which is quite non-dominant. But two championships, he is also in Miami. Behind him, is - Pat Riley's enormous shadow.
After two years he returned Knight, Cleveland Cavaliers, very quickly, become LeBron's team. No, not just that he control the ball Knight.
Before he came back, Waiters, Anderson Varejao, Deng, Zeller, Miles, Bennett were in. He came back two years, the team gradually go left Tristan - Thompson, Owen and Matthew Dellavedova up. We know that 80 million contract with him about Tristan. We know that James - Jones, why come knight.
This is his team. This is him. This is the branch Cliff Langley Brown - James team.
So I said, "winner takes all." For example, as the Bulls this season, do not blame you - Jimmy Butler, do not wholly blame Paxson manager, or blame Hoy Borg coach Of course, finally won, the credit is to be divided equally. But LeBron different. Lose, this is his team, his decision-making. He has to bear all.
But to win, and this is all his.
Heat and 2012-2013, in addition to LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, still is Riley and Spoelstra Erskine Stella success. But the Cavaliers in 2016, clearly can not be said to be a successful manager of Griffin.
Before today's match, WOJ teacher Yahoo Sports said, LeBron could go. Well, now it does not matter. He has promised to achieve.
Six years ago, he is like wraiths or Darth - Vader, go to Miami took the ring, and seized Riley skills. Then back to Cleveland, in his own words, "to instill a winning culture." Tristan let him become a magic rebounds, JR Smith let become mature, Owen became the final killer. He's got this title, just solved a curse. 2009 Bryant won the hand-wringing laughs like a child, because he finally got his first championship after leaving the shark. 2016 LeBron, it is true: he honor his commitment to Cleveland. A curse has been unblocked.
Furthermore, suspense or in such a magical way.
Perhaps the greatest in the history of the next g. Perhaps the greatest reversal. Seven games he played with his standards, general; but the final fifth in six games, he played the historical level of performance.
LeBron after the game down on their knees crying. JR Smith also burst into tears. The first time I saw cry. How do you say? Jordan in 1991 at the age of 28, the first title, he had also burst. At that time, he played for seven years.
This is LeBron thirteenth season. He was almost 32 years old. He experienced more than 28-year-old Jordan much more. Jordan smooth sailing after 28 years, the mighty. LeBron ...... long story.
- Bill Russell finally come when the awards, I think one thing. Nine years ago, I watched him give LeBron awarded eastern trophy. It was the first time into the finals LeBron. At that time his side was Gooden, Gibson (the hero of the game), big Z, - Larry Hughes, Sasha Pavlovic and Anderson Varejao .......
Russell said at the time:
"You're better than I do this step still young."
After another two weeks, Duncan said:
"The future is yours."
But these words, after nine years, really honored. Or in such a manner of blood and fire.
With Owen champion. With Loew champion. With Tristan champion. But the most important are:
With Cleveland title. Mo - Williams has been champion.
- This last, probably only experienced before The Decision years, I would understand.
(Unfortunately, I can not give up the big Z and Gibson a ring.)
LeBron said after the game, he returned home the next two years, he paid everything, he runs out of blood and sweat. Finally, he kept saying a word.
"I am Home."
This time, he is really, leaving Riley, Wade left, the section of subversion, the history of blood and fire, the world of the world will discuss the topic, such as "positioning Warriors this season in history." "Kohl system whether thunder cracked and the knight", "2016-17 season, what will be popular play", "Barnes What should sign the contract," "how Green fifth will not be suspended" so hustle, thrown together in the back.
Doomed, the 2015-16 season to go down in history.
73 regular season wins and 9 losses, history.
Curry's 400 three-pointers and a unanimous vote of the regular season MVP, history.
Spurs 67 wins in team history record.
But then: Thunder eliminated the Spurs. Warriors was 3 to 1 lead. It was overturned. NBA history Tenth 3 to 1 lead after comeback.
Knight Hawk single field of 25 three-pointers, playoff history.
And then, the Warriors vs Knights. 3 to 1 lead.
If on this end, it is happy - though Jordan and Pippen reluctant.
Then twists and turns to come.
NBA history, there has never been the Finals 1 3 behind the reversal - we saw.
NBA history to win more than 69 single-season team, never ever lost the championship - we saw.
NBA history, there has never been a double Finals single-game 40 points - we saw.
It was the third time in NBA history the final seven games to get three pairs, the fourth person in two consecutive 40 +, Jordan, sharks and Duncan after a further three degrees finals MVP-- we saw.
As well as a ten-year commitment.
Since then, he will curse previously written off, it is not burdened with the world of adventure, glory and legend, home.
- I thought, what in another place, Jordan being cut cigars, throw Pippen, while a point to their own, said:
"I have long been said! Steve wanted 73 wins downtown big news, a step on me! Hey!"
Today won the championship at the moment, LeBron directly Yanmianerqi knees, in front of the camera he yelled, "Cleveland! This championship is for you to take!"
