Chapter 586: What’s the plan?

The public opinion mostly changed after the Lakers won two games.

Many people started to believe that they could reach the finals and win it.

Previously, only fans in China dared to say something like that and they were mocked for it.

But everyone knew the strength of a genius now.

If Kobe and Iverson were restraining themselves during the series against the Blazers and Spurs, they showed their real strength against the Warriors.

They played with the same type of energy they showed at the beginning of the season.

That alone wasn’t enough to win against the Warriors.

Even at their best form in the beginning of the season, they lost two games to the Warriors at the beginning and only won one game against the Warriors during the whole regular season.

After all, the two players’ ages were 80 if added together so no matter how much of a good form they were, they couldn’t recover their youth.

The two could be the main force during the Western Conference Finals but they couldn’t be the superstars that overcome every blockade.

If it was ten years ago, then the both of them would have the power to decide the match.

Unfortunately, time wasn’t forgiving and they could only give this task to Chen Huan.

Everyone watched Chen Huan’s first game against the Blazers as well as the entire series, the NBA said that Chen Huan was the younger version of Iverson.

But against the Spurs, nobody said that anymore.

They said he was a combination of Howard and Iverson.

Then in the conference finals, Chen Huan also showed his superb three pointers skill and made Curry start to doubt life.

He actually even complained in an interview after the second game.

“During pre-season in China last year in October, Chen Huan also played but he didn’t make a single three in the game against us as well as against the Rockets!”

“At that time, he was already scheming to trick us! Can you believe he’s only 17 years old with such a scheming mind?”

However, Curry’s declaration didn’t trigger any controversy.

Everyone could only say that Chen Huan was too good.

Chen Huan played the first round against the Trail Blazers as well as the second round against the Spurs without shooting a single three but was able to blow them away.

This proved his overall ability and the confidence in his play style.

Now, he started to shoot threes in critical time, wasn’t that a form of respect for the Warriors?

Curry looked at the comments and felt he couldn’t communicate with the world.

Fuck, being sneaky is a form a wisdom? And having respect toward us?

The head coach of the Warriors was Steve Kerr and like the Lakers head coach Byron Scott, he was a man who had won three championships as a player.

Although he had only taken over the Warriors for three years, he had a lot of respect among the organization.

At this time, he tried his best to cheer up the team, “We have now encountered an unprecedented roadblock but there’s no way for a single person to win the championship.”

“We are the best team in the league and everyone is an essential part of the team. Their team is just Chen Huan, Kobe and Iverson. It’s completely different from us.”

“The next two games will be played on our home court. With our fans and the great atmosphere of our home court, we will surely turn the situation around and tie the games!”

However, those words were a bit forced by Kerr.

It was indeed a problem when the player was someone who averaged 50 points in the playoffs as well as a quintuple-double and they had nobody who could stop his offense and defense.

Many football celebrities commented that it would be possible to beat the Lakers with Chen Huan in this form was to sacrifice Lebron in a one-on-one against Chen Huan.

Any person in the league wasn’t good enough to go against Chen Huan in a one-on-one.

However, the Warriors didn’t have a Lebron or a superstar like that and relied on their teamwork.

They couldn’t play at all when they encountered an unstoppable mad dog like Chen Huan.

The only possibility for them was for the starters or at least the main seven or eight guys to play for 48 minutes so they could improve on offense.

Otherwise, if they had someone on their bench to play, Chen Huan widened the gap by 12 points in just three minutes. He was also someone who played two games entirely and the Golden State Warriors were completely helpless.

MJ was quite content.

He gave people despair when he was a player.

And he disappointed people when he became an owner.

Because of his stinginess and trashy eyes for talent.

The Hornets had top picks nearly all the time but they couldn’t select a single superstar prospect so how could the people not be disappointed?

It was even worse now.

Chen Huan participated in MJ’s training camp and he caught his eyes instantly and wanted to sign Chen Huan to the Hornets.

This judgment was evidence he used to wash away the stain in his reputation.

MJ would often bring this up when in an interview, which started to scare the reporters.

Now that there was a lot of discussion surrounding it, MJ just said, “In my opinion, Chen Huan resembles me when I was young and he’s even better for his playoff.”

“I don’t think anyone can specially stop him. Lebron may be able to do so but he has his own pride and won’t take the role of a role player so I’m confident that Chen Huan will be able to see through until the end!”

Hearing the words of MJ, Lebron and Cavaliers fans felt a bit of despair.

Alright.

You’re the god of basketball.

You’re the greatest.

So you don’t have to pay even if you brag.

It was understandable that he was pushing Chen Huan to be the king.

But it was a bit unkind for him to coerce Lebron James like that.

Due to his coercing, even if Lebron was willing to sacrifice himself for the team, he couldn’t focus on one-on-one anymore.

Otherwise, could he still be called a superstar and the face of the NBA?

He would be forcing himself to be a role player just for a 17 years old player because he was afraid of his offensive and defensive prowess?

Didn’t he have his own pride?

Didn’t have any confidence as the king?

Too soft!?

So Lebron immediately responded, “If Chen Huan reaches the finals, I will become the peak Lebron James to defeat him fairly and squarely!”

At this time, Cavaliers and Lebron fans wanted to cry.

Fucking MJ, we curse you to always competing for the top draft picks every year!
