Nine Hundred and Ninety-One: It Must Be Hell Difficulty

The finals are about to start, and Moon has been making various preparations for Link's injury recently.

After another full-body examination, Moon was very pleased with Link's physical condition.

Just as he had predicted, Link's rib injury did not worsen. Although this time is definitely not enough time to heal, Link seems to have become more and more accustomed to the feeling of playing with injuries in this situation.

Recently, Link's condition on the training ground has been getting better and better. Although he has not completely returned to 100% condition, it is very close.

On the court, he showed less and less grinning expressions. It was obvious that Link's pain was easing.

After a series of careful inspections and evaluations, Moon finally gave Link the "green light."

"You can start the next game, Link."

"Yes!" Link waved his fist excitedly. This may be the best news he has heard in recent days.

"But you still have to pay attention to protecting yourself, don't intentionally engage in too fierce confrontation, and don't use the injured left side to dunk. Especially remember, when facing players like LeBron James, sometimes don't force it. If the injury worsens , you will really be reimbursed for the season."

"Don't worry, Moon. I know how to protect myself. Thank you, I'm going to train first." Link waved his hand and walked out of the door of the doctor's office.

Being able to start during the finals obviously gave Link more confidence in the finals.

Although this year's Cavaliers have a tepid regular season record, their performance in the playoffs is no worse than the Warriors.

In the original history, the Cavaliers played 4-2 with the Warriors without Irving and Love.

Now, with Irving and Love still in the lineup, the power the Cavaliers can unleash is beyond imagination.

We've reached the final step, and Link doesn't want to fall.

Three consecutive championships, dynasty... After winning the championship last season, the scenes that Link dreamed about on the return plane will soon become reality...

On the other side, the Cavaliers are also nervously preparing for the finals.

Cavaliers coach David Blatt is leading an NBA team to the Finals for the first time. It would be a lie to say that he is not nervous.

Early this morning, Blatter called everyone for a tactical meeting. It can be seen that this American coach, who has been in Europe for many years, is exhausted physically and mentally from the game against the Grizzlies.

His big dark circles under his eyes showed his lofty status as a late-night champion.

"In the next game, I need you to strengthen your physical confrontation. From the first second of the game, raise the level of confrontation to the highest level. I don't plan to set up any redundant defensive strategies for Link, because that is a waste of effort. Tomorrow , I just ask everyone to lock their matchups and force the Grizzlies players to play in isolation under huge defensive pressure."

David Blatt tried hard to look energetic, but in fact everyone could see how tired this guy was.

"LeBron, this will give you many opportunities to defend Link alone in the next game. Link's injury has not healed yet. If you can limit Link, we can win!"

Blatter's tactical arrangements, to put it bluntly,

Just use the simplest and most brutal physical combat to grind the grizzly bear to death!

In the year he came to the NBA, David Blatt also taught himself a lesson. He now clearly knows that what has been successful in Europe cannot be copied to the NBA.

In European basketball, since there are few superstars in the league, tactics are usually more detailed than in the NBA.

Every round, every screen, every cut, movement and shot are all very particular. The charm of European basketball is completely different from the NBA.

Blatt initially planned to use this trick on the Cavaliers, but found that it didn't work at all.

You can't leave a player like James unused and create opportunities for Mozgov. Sometimes James can handle things alone, and there is no need to draw a complicated strategy that will eventually lead to mistakes.

Therefore, in the middle and late stages of the season, Blatter almost abandoned the routine that made him famous in Europe. He gradually understood that whether a head coach can be successful in the NBA does not depend on how many tactical reserves you have in your mind or how sophisticated tactics you can deploy.

It's about whether you can maximize the abilities of the players on your team and whether you can get the support of the players in the locker room.

A series of trades by the Cavaliers in the middle of this season changed the entire team. Three of the eight main rotation players on the team are new. It can be said that they don't know everything about Blatt's tactics.

At that time, Blatt understood that forcing his own system into the Cavaliers simply wouldn't work.

Therefore, Blatter, who knows how to adapt, did not accept death. Relying on simple high and low pick-and-rolls and the talents of the players, the record was improved.

He gradually understood the difference between the NBA and European basketball. In the NBA, sometimes simplicity is more efficient.

If for the Cavaliers, letting James play his best is the best way to win, then everything else is nonsense.

Blatt even believes that his assistant coach Tyronn Lue is better than him in these aspects...

Therefore, in this year's finals, after studying for a whole night, Blatter still decided to keep everything simple!

The simplest one-on-one defense, the simplest one-on-one. If you create a lot of defensive traps to limit Link, it will give other Grizzlies opportunities.

Link's passing ability and passing vision are obvious to everyone, and the past Western Conference Finals fully demonstrated that others on the Grizzlies team can kill the game.

Instead of taking the risk of being pierced by thousands of arrows, it would be more practical to force the injured Link to play singles with James.

Although he has lost to Link twice, James is still one of the strongest players in the league. With the rest of the Grizzlies being contained, Blatt believed that James had the ability to deal with an injured Link!

The NBA Finals always depends on the players. Or to be more specific, a league where the stars decide the game!

Without superstars, the Hawks, who relied on team basketball to survive, were swept by the Cavaliers, which is the best proof of this.

Let them resolve matters among the stars themselves.

After listening to the tactical arrangements, James geared up.

One-on-one with Link was what he wanted!

That afternoon, during the media opening period of the Cavaliers' training, a reporter interviewed Blatt and asked him what strategies he would use to restrict Link.

Brat shrugged and spread his hands, "There is no strategy."

The reporters laughed, thinking that Blatter deliberately set off smoke bombs before the game started.

But in fact, Blatter is more honest than ever.

The only one who can restrain Link is LeBron James!

In the afternoon, during the confrontation training, James undoubtedly showed off his good condition.

The guy who ranks first in scoring, fifth in rebounds and third in assists in the playoffs has entered revenge mode.

The night before the game, in an ESPN program, Kenny Smith also revealed the secret of the Cavaliers.

"David Blatt may not be joking when he says he has no plan. Because the Cavaliers let James guard the injured Link, which is more than enough. Yes, Link's performance in playing injured in the Western Conference Finals was great. But that's because the Warriors don't have strong enough players to compete with Link. But this time, Link will face LeBron James! If you are LeBron, you have been defeated by the same person for two consecutive years. .So this time, will you show mercy?"

Kenny Smith looked at the camera and sighed, "No matter what, this year's finals will definitely be hellish for Link."

At this time, the whole world began to worry about the fate of Grizzly Bear and Link.
