Bishop of the Devil

What Richard said is actually correct. Now that Richard has not retired, Libit and Li Jin have both led their teams to the finals. Who is Richard's opponent if not Richard?

It can even be said to be the enemy...

"Dududu!" The game started on the field, and the starting players from both sides began to appear.

This game was the Warriors' home court, but Li Jin's three-pointer at the beginning directly caused the Warriors to suffer a lot.

He hit all three three-pointers in the opening game. Even though Libitt was active in the penalty area, it still gave the Cavaliers an early advantage.

Curry was very uncomfortable being defended. He had a feeling that Li Jin in front of him was as good as Leonard in defensive ability, maybe even better than Leonard.

After two seasons in the league, both Libit and Li Jin are now over 18 years old and have grown a bit taller.

A few days ago, Li Bit's height reached 216 centimeters, and Li Jin's height has now reached the standard point guard height of 191cm, which is as tall as Curry.

Li Jin's defense can be said to be the essence of Leonard's defense. After all, he has been training with the Clippers for so many years, and he must have gained a lot.

Curry was so guarded by Li Jin that it was difficult to even find space to shoot.

What makes Curry quite speechless is that this is the first time Li Jin has played against him in the two years since he entered the league!

During the regular season, Li Jin and Li Bit had a tacit understanding of taking turns when they met their opponents.

As for the playoffs, the Warriors failed to enter the finals last season, so this is the first time Curry has played against Li Jin.

Curry had heard that Li Jin's defense was very strong before, but because he had never played against him, he didn't know exactly how strong it was...

Now that he has taken advantage of it, he finally understands that this is more than just strong, it is at a historical level.

Before Leonard, some said the best outside defender was Jordan and some said it was Kobe, but Payton is actually more qualified to get this title.

Curry feels that Li Jin's defensive strength has definitely reached Payton's level now. It may not take long, maybe one year, maybe two years? Li Jin's perimeter defensive strength will reach the strongest level in history.

This makes Curry a little desperate. The strongest perimeter defender in history who is less than 20 years old makes people's scalp numb just thinking about it.

This game was completely crazy. Li Jin's three-pointers were thrown like a torrential rain. Not only did he explode with three-pointers, he also played an extremely important role in defending Curry. Curry collapsed directly after being defended.

Libit also showed off his power and wreaked havoc in the penalty area, causing Love to complain endlessly.

In the past two years, Love has begun to actively gain weight again. He has quite a bit of the wolf king's demeanor back then, but he still doesn't look good enough in front of Libit...

It goes without saying how terrifying Libit was when he completely broke out. Needless to say, there was absolutely no enemy on the entire court.

However, judging from the book strength, it is obvious that the Cavaliers led by Li Jin are slightly stronger. In addition, Li Jin struck first and maintained the advantage. Therefore, after the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the Cavaliers won this away game with difficulty.

The two sides directly scored a super high score of 141:138, directly setting the highest scoring record in an NBA finals history.

Li Jin threw 17 three-pointers crazy in this game. For Li Jin, three-pointers are completely conventional offensive weapons.

Last season, there were Leonard and Antetokounmpo in the Clippers lineup who could limit some Li Jin. There are no defensive players of this level in the Clippers this season. Curry's defense will definitely not be as good as Leonard's. That level.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Curry's defense is really bad.

In fact, saying that Curry’s defense is poor is also a kind of impression flow...

Lowry's defense should be recognized as good among point guards, but in fact, Lowry's career defensive efficiency is similar to Curry's, not better than Curry's...

There are only two explanations for this situation.

Either Curry's defense is underestimated, or Lowry's defense is overestimated. It's a matter of opinion.

But one thing is certain, even if Curry's defense is underestimated, he is definitely not a historical-level perimeter defender.

Apart from anything else, his physical fitness alone hardly poses any threat to Li Jin's offense.

If there was really a threat, Li Jin would not have allowed Li Jin to hit 17 three-pointers, 7 of 7 outbound serves, and score 58 points in this game.

In the finals last season, Li Jin scored 54 points in a single game, becoming the youngest player with 50+ points in the history of the finals. He also became the highest scorer in the finals besides Baylor, Jordan and Rick Barry. players.

Baylor scored 61 points, Joe had 55 points, and Barry also scored 55 points.

In tonight's game, Li Jin directly surpassed Gang Leader Qiao and Old Barry and ranked third on the league's historical finals scoring list!

Some fans may be wondering, why is he only third after surpassing two people? Shouldn't it be second?

That's because Libit's performance tonight was also extremely fierce. With Curry being completely restricted, Libitt directly took up the team's offensive banner and scored 63 points in the game, directly breaking Baylor's 1962 A record that remains today!

The fans were dumbfounded. According to this style of play, from now on, the two brothers will simply be called record breakers.

All records have been broken by this brother. Now Baylor is still ranked second in the finals scoring list, but who knows how long he can last. Maybe in the next game, Baylor will have to squeeze out of the top three. …

As for Gang Leader Qiao, I guess you won’t see his name among the top five in the future.

In the first game of the unprecedented battle, the Cavaliers led by Li Jin won their first victory, directly overturning the slight disadvantage before the start of the game and becoming the leader of this unprecedented battle.

Before the game started, the Warriors had the home court advantage. Now the Cavaliers won the first game and won the away game, which is of great significance.

However, in the second game, Li Jin's three-pointer failed to explode. Although Curry was still restricted, Li Bit continued to play strongly, and the Cavaliers eventually lost the game.

The two sides fought to a one-to-one draw.

The next two games arrived at the home court of the Cavaliers. Richard was not polite at all and went directly to Cleveland on the special plane of the Cavaliers generals, preparing to watch the next games.

The next two games of the Cavaliers were tied again, with the big score between the two sides resulting in a 2:2 draw.

Richard was a little speechless. It seemed that there were only seven games in this unprecedented battle, and there would definitely be no winner.

Richard simply stopped watching the next three games. His heart couldn't bear to watch them. The matches between the two sides were so exciting. Richard had never seen such an intense finals.

Even though both sides scored very high, that was purely due to the presence of two monsters. The defensive intensity of both sides was actually extremely terrifying.

In the next two games, the two teams defended their home court and successfully dragged the game into a tiebreaker.

Xiao Hua was about to go crazy, and he was driven crazy by Le.

This year's finals directly improved the historical record by another 30%!

In last year's finals, Richard's game against the Cavaliers had already broken the NBA's historical finals ratings record.

This year, it has continued to surge, directly increasing by 30%. You can imagine how popular it is.

Nike is also making a lot of money. The signature sneakers of Li Bit and Li Jin are sold as much as they produce...

The last finals game was the Warriors' home court, and the Golden Dragon was making crazy money.

The previous ticket price record for the best seats in the NBA Finals was $300,000.

And this time it soared to half a million US dollars!

It’s extremely ridiculous when you think about it, spending half a million dollars just to watch a game? ! Even Richard, who has so much money and no place to spend it, feels it is a bit too extravagant.

Of course, the biggest purpose of people spending this money to buy this ticket is not really to watch the game, but mainly to increase their popularity.

Sitting in the best position, with various appearances broadcast live across the United States, it is worth the money...

Not only were the high-end seats sold at sky-high prices, but even the crappiest seats were sold for a sky-high price of nearly nine hundred dollars.

Golden Dragon didn't know what to say. He felt that the most correct decision he could make in his life was to acquire the Warriors.

The second pair's decision was to play crazy and win Libit.

Libitt has brought enviable benefits to the Warriors...

Not to mention others, even Richard is a little greedy. Los Angeles is not far from Oakland, so many Los Angeles fans have become Libit fans, which is very uncomfortable.

For the next tiebreaker, this time Richard came with his whole family, and Li Lamb was all dressed in security uniforms and was pulled to watch the game.

"Second brother, who do you think can win?" Little Mary asked worriedly to the confused Li Lamb.

Before the game even started, Li Lamb immediately became the focus of the fans. Even ESPN gave Li Lamb several shots.

This thing is so weird that I didn’t even have time to change my clothes before I was pulled over.

The seats that Richard's family is currently selling are not the best ones, but if they are sold, the ticket price for these four seats will be more than 200,000 US dollars, with an average price of 50,000 US dollars per seat!

Everyone was speechless. Is it profitable to be a security guard now? Can everyone afford to watch a game worth $50,000 a game? !

"Haha, I know this boy. He is the second son of the Richard family."

"It seems that this kid has no interest in the NBA. On the contrary, he has similar interests to Shaq. They both like to be a policeman." Barkley burst out laughing. It was really Le Lamb who was so funny.

…

"Don't ask me, how did I know that?"

"This is the home court of the Warriors. Naturally, the Warriors have a greater chance of winning." Li Lamb said angrily to his sister Mary.

"I hope the third brother can win. Since childhood, the eldest brother's light has always overshadowed the third brother..." Mary said worriedly looking at Li Jin who came on the stage.

"Why do you worry so much? My little girl chases stars every day and buys and buys every day. Why don't you imitate others and follow the basketball game every day." Li Lamb said with a pout.

"It's up to you to take care of it. Just watch. If the third brother loses this game, I will go to grandma and ask him to sell Oden to the Cavaliers and help the third brother defeat the eldest brother." Mary said happily.

Richard was speechless. His daughter was a bit imaginative. She might have inherited it from her, and she liked to make big noises.

…

The game on the field has begun. Tiana and Mary are holding hands tightly, feeling quite nervous.

But Richard and Li Lamb were quite calm...

The two sides were almost tied in the first quarter. Li Jin's touch was quite good tonight, leading the Cavaliers to a slight three-point advantage in the first quarter.

But not long after the second quarter started, Hayward sprained his ankle when he landed during a layup and left the game.

Richard sighed. Hayward's ankle had suffered a major injury and was a time bomb with the possibility of recurrence at any time.

Now the Cavaliers directly lost a general, which made Richard sigh.

It may be that Hayward's exit directly led to the Cavaliers' defeat.

Sure enough, as Richard expected, the morale of the Cavaliers was somewhat affected. However, Li Jin still worked hard to boost morale. He was only one step away from the championship, even if he lost one of his generals, Hayward. They must not give up either.

…

Li Jin broke out with all his strength and insisted on the score between the two sides. The fans watching were anxious.

Fans with weak hearts really can't watch this kind of game, because it's so intense that ordinary people can't stand it, let alone these fans with weak hearts.

In the blink of an eye, the game entered the final stage, and the score between the two sides was still tight.

The Cavaliers trailed the Warriors by a full five points, and there were still 27 seconds left in the game.

In the Cavaliers' offensive possession, Li Jin dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, directly under the double-teaming of Curry and Huerter, he shot a three-pointer and hit it steadily.

The original five-point difference was reduced to the last two points in an instant.

Those fans watching the live broadcast held their breath. Can the Cavaliers turn defeat into victory? !

Just look at the last 20 seconds!

In the Warriors' offensive round, Curry controlled the ball. They were leading by two points and there were 20 seconds left in the game. Naturally, it was impossible to take the initiative. The only thing they needed to do was to waste time.

After the ball reached the frontcourt, Li Jin quickly stepped forward like a mad tiger and pressed Curry with high intensity.

If you don't press, it won't work. If you continue to let Curry waste time, the Cavaliers will have no choice but to die!

Curry's ball control is quite good, but facing Li Jin who looks like a crazy tiger, he is also under great pressure.

In desperation, he could only pass it to Warren, who was not far away from him.

After Warren caught the ball, Li Jin immediately changed his defensive target and rushed towards the ball holder Warren.

When Warren saw Li Jin rushing toward him, he trembled. He had been intercepted four times by Li Jin tonight, and had two blocks!

Seeing Li Jin rushing towards him, Warren did not dare to raise the ball and prepared to pass the ball back to Curry.

"Pop..." With a crisp sound, Li Jin shot the pass directly from the air at an incredible height.

He just shot towards the front court, and then his whole body suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the front court.

Cole's heart skipped a beat, and he knew something was wrong.

The Warriors were only leading by two points, and Li Jin's offense was completely undefended!

In other words, Li Jin's goal is 100% possible and the two sides will be tied!

All the fans held their breath, waiting for the upcoming overtime!

No matter who looks at it, Li Jin's goal must be two points, and then get a chance to drag the game into overtime!

But after a moment, they had the urge to rub their eyes, feeling that they were hallucinating.

Li Jin, who rushed to the frontcourt, did not go towards the basket, but stood outside the three-point line and shot a three-pointer!

"Whoa!" Before Curry rushed to defend, Li Jin's three-pointer hit the net!

The ball went in, and it was still a three-pointer!

The winning and losing situation of both sides was directly reversed, and the Warriors went from leading by five points to falling behind by one point!

The Cavaliers fans went crazy. They hit two heart-breaking three-pointers in succession, which directly allowed the Cavaliers to get the championship trophy!

There are two seconds left before the end of the game, and the Cavaliers lead by one point. Unless God is on the side of the Warriors, otherwise, the final winner will definitely be their Cavaliers!

Warriors head coach Cole directly called a timeout.

He felt that his brain was not used enough. When facing such a god-like player, his tactical arrangements were just a decoration.

All the Warriors looked serious, the situation was quite unfavorable for them now!

On the knight side, Li Jin was surrounded by excited generals.

"Guys, guard against this last ball, victory belongs to us, and the championship belongs to us!"

"We will return to Cleveland with the first championship trophy in Cavaliers history, and we will become heroes!" Larry Drew shouted emotionally.

"Lee, the only thing you have to do next is to defend Curry's shots!"

"In just two seconds, the only thing they can do is shoot a three-pointer. We won't give them a chance to pass the ball to the inside!" Drew arranged the last tactic of the game.

What everyone didn't expect was that Li Jin shook his head.

"Coach, I will do a good job in Curry's defense, but believe me, I know Libitt better than anyone else. He will definitely take charge of this last ball!"

"Defend Libit's attack with all your strength!"

Drew's eyes were stunned. In the last two seconds, would Cole let a seven-foot center take charge of the final attack? !

Although it was unlikely, Drew didn't dare to put too much pressure on it.

"Kevin, you should know how to do this."

Love nodded. The championship was right in front of him. He secretly swore in his heart that no matter how badly he was tortured by Libit, he would never let Libit score on this last ball!

"God, I don't even know how to describe how I feel right now!"

"In a short period of time, Li Jin made two magic three-pointers in a row, directly overtaking the score. This may be the most exciting finals I have ever seen."

"Li Jin will become a hero and will bring the Cavaliers the first championship trophy in team history!"

"Don't talk so early, the game isn't over yet!"

"Isn't it over yet? In two seconds, the warrior can fight back? I don't believe it!"

The fans started talking excitedly, but it stopped soon because the game was about to start.

The timeout ends and players from both teams return to the court.

Love followed Libitt closely, but what gave him a bad premonition was that Libitt didn't run around at all, but stood quietly near the boundary line...

The referee blew the whistle and the Warriors started serving.

Warren stood on the sidelines and passed the ball directly to Libit.

The next thing I saw was Libitt leaping high and shooting a three-pointer directly from the receiving point!

A three-point shot from close to midcourt? !

Everyone was stunned, even Love was stunned. Although he also stretched out his hands to harass Libit's three-pointer, it was obvious that this harassment had no effect on Libit.

Libit jumped too high, so high that many fans on the sidelines looked up.

There was no arc in this ball. In the eyes of the fans, Libit's shooting point was much higher than the basket. It looked like Libit was condescending and smashed the ball towards the basket.

"Bang!" There was a loud noise.

The ball hit the backboard directly, then bounced to the edge of the basket, and then quickly got into the net!

Hit? ! A buzzer-beating three-pointer in midfield? !

Not to mention the Warriors fans at the scene, even Richard, his own father, was dumbfounded!

Is this okay? !

Can you score goals like this? !

The ball went in and the buzzer sounded. Libit beat the Cavaliers with a three-pointer from midfield and led the team to this year's championship!

The mood of Cavaliers fans is definitely like riding a roller coaster.

From being five points behind at the beginning, to taking a one-point lead, and now being defeated by Libit with an extremely weird three-pointer, their mood is now hard to calm down.

The Warriors rushed onto the court crazily, surrounded Libitt, and shouted wildly.

This championship is not easy to come by.

Their opponents were terrifyingly strong. If Libit hadn't been able to control the situation, they knew that they would definitely be swept away by the Cavaliers!

…

Li Jin watched helplessly as his brother Li Bit killed him, and his eyes turned red instantly.

Although he is usually quite calm and composed, he is still only an eighteen-year-old kid after all. You can imagine the pain in his heart when he loses the championship.

Tiana and Mary walked onto the court, hugged Li Jin and comforted him.

Richard took Li Lamb to congratulate Li Bit first, and then walked to Li Jin's side.

"Kid, you have done a good job." Richard sighed and said.

"No, what I did was not good enough. If it were good enough, we should have won the first championship trophy in team history by now!"

"Don't worry, Dad, I will continue to work hard and fight again next year!" Li Jin rubbed his eyes and said firmly.

"Okay, this is my Richard's son. Let's fight again next year!" Richard said with a smile!

…

The unprecedented decisive battle has finally come to an end. What is certain is that this round of finals will definitely become a classic battle in the hearts of fans.

During the offseason, what no one expected was that the Trail Blazers made a deal with the Cavaliers.

The Trail Blazers sent Oden, their team's leading center, in exchange for Hayward from the Cavaliers.

This undoubtedly directly caused an earthquake. The Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference were already strong enough, but now that there is another Oden, all the teams in the Eastern Conference can only look up to the powerful Cavaliers.

Many people think that the Cavaliers will definitely be able to defeat the Warriors this year.

But before they could calm down, the Warriors and Clippers also reached a deal.

The Clippers signed and then traded Thompson, sending him to the Warriors in exchange for Warren and some miscellaneous junk chips.

The warriors have also become stronger!

All the teams in the league are going to cry. These two powerful teams are completely at the Super Galaxy level. How can these teams play? !

The fact that the Cavaliers got Oden was entirely due to Mary.

Jodi doted on Mary quite a lot, but he himself had no interest in basketball. After Mary's persuasion, he finally agreed to the deal.

As for the deal between the Clippers and the Warriors, Richard completely wanted to get the Splash Brothers together and also help a bunch of Golden Dragons.

It is foreseeable that in the next few years, these two teams will be a nightmare for other teams in the league. Even Richard's team will definitely be beaten in front of these two teams.

…

The following season was also the brothers' third season in the league. Li Jin finally led the Cavaliers to a narrow victory over the Warriors and won the first championship of his career. It also brought the Cavaliers the first championship in team history. Championship trophy.

Under normal circumstances, both brothers have been in the league for three years, and it is time to negotiate early contract extensions with their respective home teams.

Once the contract is renewed, these two teams can remain strong forever.

But to the delight of every team in the league, the brothers rejected the team's request for an early contract extension with a tacit understanding.

This made other teams crazy, feeling like they had a chance to win Libit and Lijin.

These two brothers, if they win any one of them, they are guaranteed to be in the finals. The key is that they can also bring unparalleled and considerable benefits to the team.

But they didn't wait long for their happiness. After the brothers' four-year rookie contract ended, Wo Shen broke the news that the brothers were preparing to sign the contract with their home team.

This news directly poured cold water on other teams, and it seemed that they had completely lost the chance to get the brothers.

But after the brothers' contracts came out the next day, the hopes of these teams rose again.

Because both brothers only signed two-year contracts with their respective home teams.

Guaranteed contract in the first year, player option in the second year...

What does this mean? It means that there is still a chance for the brothers to dig their feet...

The hearts of each team are sometimes summer and sometimes winter, not to mention how exciting it is!

If they knew the reason why the brothers only signed the contract for two years, they would probably vomit blood...

Richard kept mumbling in front of the brothers that fourteen championships sounded too unlucky.

14? ! To die!

The two brothers were not fools, so they naturally heard that Richard wanted their help to finally win a championship.

So I simply signed the contract once a year, waiting for Richard's call at any time.

…

In the summer of 2027, perhaps the biggest news in the league's history broke out.

Both Li Bit and Li Jin chose to execute player options, left their respective home teams, and then joined the Clippers with a one-year contract of US$1 million...

Every team in the league is going to cry, how can we still play this game? Let Xiao Hua declare the Clippers championship...

The only good thing is that the contract was only signed for one year, and many people guessed that this might be Richard's last act of madness.

After Richard's madness is over and he wins the fifteenth championship of his coaching career, it is estimated that the two brothers will leave the Clippers. By then, won't they have a chance? !

In recent years, Richard has almost completely disappeared from the NBA league, resigning as the team's head coach and letting his assistant coach Nas take over, which means he will appear from time to time in the draft.

In addition, Richard has published an autobiography of his own in the past two years...

The book is called "The Devil's Bishop", and countless fans shouted that this title is too appropriate.

When it comes to this book title, Richard is also quite helpless. The titles recommended to him by the publisher are one is "Crazy Bishop" and the other is "Devil Bishop"...

Richard chose the latter one without even thinking, crazy? I am not crazy...
