LeBron James running away? He's going all in on Curry.

In a luxury villa on the south coast of Miami, thousands of miles away.

Dwyane Wade sat on the sofa with thick ice packs on his legs.

The light and shadow on the TV screen flickered across his face, playing on a loop Kyrie Irving's earth-shattering, face-to-face outburst at Quicken Loans Arena.

"You're just a hypocrite who's terrified of others stealing your thunder and is extremely insecure!"

"For your worthless data! You've turned us all into useless, stationary robots!"

Listening to Irving's heart-wrenching accusations, Wade's hand holding the remote control trembled slightly involuntarily.

Unlike before, he didn't immediately post on social media to defend his "good brother".

Instead, in this deathly silence, Wade felt a chill run down his spine all the way to the top of his head.

It was as if someone had poured a bucket of ice water over his head. All the details of his four-year career with the Heat came flooding back to Wade's mind like a movie, being unraveled bit by bit.

"So... I'm not the only one who feels this way."

Wade muttered to himself, a bitter and sorrowful look flashing in his eyes.

He recalled the loss in the 2011 Finals, and how he had voluntarily relinquished absolute ball possession and taken a backseat for the sake of that vague notion of "brotherhood basketball".

From then on, he became the blue-collar player forced to make off-ball cuts in half-court offense, while Chris Bosh, the "Dragon King" who once dominated the Raptors, was forced into becoming a cannon turret that was always crouching in the corner and couldn't even get into the paint!

Whenever the opponent misses a shot and Bosh is battling for position in the paint with the opposing center, that figure in the number 6 jersey will always "just in time" rush in, easily grab the defensive rebound that offers no resistance, and then speed away.

And Dwyane Wade, dragging his broken knee that needed to be drained of fluid in every game, repeatedly threw himself into the air to attack in the high-level games of the fourth quarter, cleaning up the mess left by the MVP who had run out of time at the top of the key!

"I thought it was a sacrifice by the leader, I thought it was for Miami..."

Wade closed his eyes in pain.

He recalled last summer when James confidently persuaded him and Bosh to opt out of their contracts, saying they would take pay cuts to strengthen the team.

And what happened? That man who kept calling his brother "brother" turned around and boarded a private jet to Los Angeles, leaving him with a humiliating contract and a Miami Heat riddled with problems!

"Su Yang is right... He saw through it long ago."

Wade leaned back on the sofa, a self-deprecating smirk playing on his lips.

Without the cover of filters, the vampire's fangs are so glaringly obvious.

Kyrie Irving's outburst today is nothing more than tearing open the festering sores that the Heat have been hiding for the past four years and showing them to the world.

"You can never wake someone who is pretending to be asleep, but you can never feed an extremely selfish vampire."

Wade turned off the TV and tossed the remote aside.

From this day forward, the man named LeBron James has died in his life.

……

And in Cleveland, at Quicken Loans Arena.

During the break at the end of the third quarter, the Clippers' bench was like an icebox.

After unleashing his historic tirade, Kyrie Irving walked to the very end of the bench, plopped down, covered his head with a towel, and refused to look at anyone again.

LeBron James' face had turned from purplish-red to ashen, his chest heaving violently, but for the first time ever, he didn't refute it.

Because he knew that the whole world's cameras were on him, he absolutely could not lose his composure at this moment.

"Listen up, guys. We still have one quarter left. We're down by 12 points, but that's not a lot!"

Head coach Doc Rivers steeled himself and walked over to the players, clipboard in hand, his voice hoarse as he delivered his utterly meaningless pep talk, "Kyrie, you need to work on the fourth quarter..."

"I won't fight."

From beneath the towel came Irving's cold and resolute voice.

Rivers was stunned: "What? Kyrie, this is the NBA Finals!"

Irving ripped off the towel, sneered at Rivers, and then glanced at James not far away: "Since our 'King' likes to control the game so much, let him play by himself. I don't want to go up there and be a spot-up shooter who only takes the blame. I've had enough."

Strike!

Kyrie Irving surprisingly refused to play in the fourth quarter of the Finals!

Rivers, sweating profusely, turned to another star player: "Kevin! You go in! You and LeBron..."

"I'm fine with it, coach."

Kevin Durant stood up, adjusting his shorts with a blank expression, and said casually, "But my touch is a bit cold, and my stamina is almost gone. Let LeBron do the main offense on the court later, and I'll be responsible for creating space for him."

Upon hearing Durant's words, James's lips twitched slightly!

What does this mean?! Durant's meaning couldn't be clearer: I'm just going through the motions! You're on your own to clean up this mess!

"drop--!"

The fourth quarter has officially begun!

As he watched the Clippers' lineup take to the court, Su Yang, sitting in the VIP box, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Irving simply put on a long-sleeved warm-up suit and sat at the back of the bench; Durant, although on the court, had a vacant look in his eyes, completely like someone who was just clocking out and was not really working.

"Since the Clippers have surrendered, let's give this 'King' some final dignity."

Su Yang picked up the secure phone and gave Byron Scott the substitution instructions: "Take Curry, Davis, and Leonard out! Let the reserves go in! Move Giannis to the three and have him guard LeBron!"

Substitution during a dead ball situation.

As the Cavaliers' bench players stepped onto the court, James looked at the group of young faces opposite him, and a final burst of madness ignited in his eyes!

Irving isn't playing, and Durant is playing dead.

But it's okay! The Cavaliers' starters are all out!

"This bunch of substitutes think they can stop me from racking up points... oh no, from catching up?!"

James looked at the Greek rookie wearing the Cavaliers' number 34 jersey who was guarding him.

Giannis Antetokounmpo!

In James's memory, this Greek kid who had only entered the league last year was just a rough guy who couldn't even shoot.

"Using you as a backdrop is a perfect way to save face for me tonight!"

James held the ball beyond the three-point line. Facing Giannis' defense, he lowered his center of gravity, ready to use his bulldozer-like drive to overpower the second-year rookie!

"Bang!"

James suddenly exerted force and plunged headfirst into Giannis' defensive cylinder, slamming his left shoulder into it!

In James's mind, this collision would definitely knock the Greek stick off his feet, and then he could easily complete a powerful tomahawk dunk!

however!

The instant his shoulder made contact with Giannis' chest!

James's expression changed!

An overwhelming force rebounded! It was like slamming into a wall!

How is that possible?!

James looked up in shock. He then realized that the originally skinny Greek boy in front of him had been transformed into a real monster after two years of Su Yang's almost cruel scientific muscle-building and nutritional irrigation. His broad shoulders and rock-like angular muscle armor had long since become a real monster!

Not only was Giannis not knocked away, but he also blocked Giannis's driving space with his core strength and wingspan that is longer than James's!

"Go down, old man!"

Giannis roared and thrust his massive chest forward, causing James to stagger half a step and lose control of the basketball!

"Snapped!"

Patrick Beverley, who had been lurking on the wing, pounced out like a mad dog and stole the basketball that James had dropped!

"Counterattack! Giannis!"

Beverley made a long pass, throwing the ball towards the Clippers' half of the court!

Giannis Antetokounmpo, who was just on the defensive end, displayed an explosiveness that is beyond his height!

He strode across the field in three steps, as if riding on wheels of fire!

At this moment, James, feeling humiliated and indignant about being stolen from, chased back desperately, wanting to wash away the shame with a chase-down block!

The two players, one after the other, drove into the Clippers' paint!

Giannis Antetokounmpo gathered the ball just inside the free-throw line and took to the air!

James also leaped high, raising his right hand high and swatting the basketball in Giannis's hand!

"Trying to seduce me?!"

Giannis Antetokounmpo, suspended in mid-air, looked at LeBron James chasing after him with a bloodthirsty glint in his eyes!

His body performed an incredible aerial fold! His arms, which were much longer than James', spun the ball in the air like a windmill, dodging James' block!

Then, with tremendous momentum, Giannis Antetokounmpo faced LeBron James, who was still in mid-air, and slammed the ball toward the basket!

"boom--!!!"

A thunderous explosion ripped through the air above the Quicken Loans Arena!

Giannis Antetokounmpo slammed the ball into the net with one hand! The immense impact sent LeBron James, who was trying to block the shot, off balance in mid-air, crashing out of bounds in a sorry state!

A killer dunk!!!

A second-year reserve rookie dunked over the so-called best player in the league on the stage of the Finals!

The entire Quicken Loans Arena fell silent for a second, then erupted in a gasp of terror and disbelief!

"Oh my God!!!"

Charles Barkley jumped to his feet in shock in the commentary booth. "Giannis Antetokounmpo! The Greek Freak! He's cemented LeBron James's place on the Finals wall of shame!"

However, this moment, which is enough to be recorded in the top ten goals of all time, is not the climax!

Giannis Antetokounmpo landed steadily on the floor after completing the dunk.

He didn't look at James, who was struggling to get up from the baseline, but turned around to face the completely silent fans.

The Greek monster, on which Su Yang had placed high hopes, slowly raised its hands and placed them on its head.

Then, he made a celebratory gesture that sent chills down everyone's spine!

He made a slow and solemn gesture with both hands above his head—

The gesture of "wearing a crown"!

Coronation!

In front of the so-called "king", he brutally knocked down the crown and then put it on himself!

The ultimate mockery! The ultimate insult!

James, watching from outside the baseline, was trembling with anger and his face turned pale, but he didn't even have the courage to go up and argue with them.

Because in that physical confrontation just now, he clearly felt that the physical dominance that belonged to his era, which he was proud of, had begun to crumble in front of this Greek monster!
