Jordan: I thought he was there to help me!

"Have you ever fantasized about it? Many of you have probably done something similar in your middle school, high school, college, or even during an NBA game, right?"

"Honestly, I fantasized about it a lot before I entered the NBA, but after that, I stopped fantasizing about it!"

"Because I've done it countless times, I don't need to fantasize."

"I've been through countless tougher and worse times than this, and almost every time I've been the hero, leading my team to victory and giving a resounding slap in the face to everyone who didn't believe in me! I just need to look back on it after I retire."

"And you? Would you rather spend the rest of your lives only fantasizing about having accomplished this, or simply reminiscing about having done it?"

"Memories!" Everyone present gave their answer without hesitation.

"Come on, everyone, tell me what kind of memories you'd most like to have, Derek?"

"I want to lead the team to victory tonight, even when we're down by 20 points! I want everyone to remember us! To remember our resilience! And then we'll win the championship!" Rose said with unwavering determination. "I want everyone to remember the most resilient and indomitable champions in history."

"They all thought of us!"

"When I was a kid, the Rockets were known as the indestructible Texas cockroaches. But I hope that one day people will call us the ineradicable North Carolina cockroaches!"

"I don't like the cockroach metaphor, but everything else is perfect! Anything else?" Lin Tian looked at everyone and asked, "Who still has dreams?"

"I want to make the game-winning shot!"

"I want to grab 20 rebounds!"

"I've already caught 20, I want to catch 30!"

"I hope to hit 10 three-pointers to turn the game around!"

"I hope to get 10 blocks!"

"All good, all good!" Lin Tian waved his hand, looking at the increasingly excited players, and said calmly, "Who's going to give me something new? We don't necessarily have to focus on tonight's game."

"I want to acquire the highest level of fighting skills, and then in that match back then, grab your leg, use a ground technique to throw you to the ground, and then use a knee cross lock to force you to scream and surrender."

"After I mercifully let you go, I originally wanted to let it go, but you felt unconvinced and thought you had lost face, so you insisted on attacking me from behind. But I noticed in time, ducked to avoid your swing punch, and then I hit you with two consecutive elbow strikes from behind, making you almost vomit bile."

"Finally, I grabbed your annoying big head behind my back with both hands, pinned it to my shoulders, and then delivered a satisfying RKO, slamming your head into the floor and completely smashing you, you damn bastard, to pieces!"

"Well played." Lin Tian, ​​as always, remained calm and collected, applauding his players. "Have you noticed the change in them?"

"James is playing extremely selfishly!" Hayward, who has matched up against James the most and has an extremely high basketball IQ, said first: "I don't know why, but he's not passing the ball."

"That's it!" Lin Tian said with a smile. "James' mentality is off. He wants to prove himself, to prove that the team can't do without him."

"He wanted to tell everyone that he was great, that he was still the chosen one and the one and only emperor."

"But clearly, in Dallas, he didn't have that status and power; all the praise, the glory, the compliments belonged to Dirk."

"He's out of balance! All those comments before the series started were just a warm-up. His mediocre performance in the first two games and the team's wins were just an appetizer. But tonight, Dirk's explosion in the last moments of the first half, the players' cheers, and his crazy scoring in the third quarter, which narrowed the gap, were the main course!"

"The dessert that followed was brought to me by Jason. Although this guy is very smart, quick-witted, and has a strong tactical awareness, he has an extremely bad temper. He is one of the most short-tempered bastards I have ever met. He is almost the second Larry Brown."

"So, I bet he won't give James any face right now; he's definitely going to rant and rave about him!"

"So the meal is complete, from appetizers to dessert, everything is ready. Now," Lin Tian paused, looking at everyone, and asked, "Are you all confident?"

"certainly!"

Rose waved his arms and shouted, "Let's complete the greatest comeback in NBA playoff history!" (End of Chapter)
