On May 17, Beijing time, the 2023-2024 season playoffs are underway, in which Jeremy Lin said that the Denver Nuggets and Celtics will meet in the Finals, and finally Jayson Tatum, Brown, Horford, and Holiday will be the champions, and Beverley talks about the players who promote the game, Magic Johnson, Jordan, LeBron James, Candace, and Clark. Just now, after the Cleveland Cavaliers missed the Eastern Conference Finals, the starting core was isolated by teammates, and the NBA league also had moral kidnapping.
According to the latest report from the Register, the fifth game of the Cleveland Cavaliers against the Celtics, due to the lack of Donovan Mitchell, only relied on Mobley Jr., Strus, Morris Jr., Garland and other players to do their best, but in the face of Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Bill Horford, it seemed that they had no ability to fight back, so they were directly won. It should be emphasized that losing this crucial game for the Cleveland Cavaliers means missing the Eastern Conference Finals, losing the opportunity to compete for the championship, and even the whole season's efforts are wasted.
It is worth mentioning that due to the fact that after playing in the first four games of the second round of the playoffs against the Celtics, he missed the rest of the game due to a rib injury, which made the Cleveland Cavaliers' rotation lineup worse and worse, and the combat effectiveness became much weaker all of a sudden, and Shams revealed that no one doubted whether it was Morris Jr., Mobley, or Strus and other teammates, no one doubted whether Allen would feel uncomfortable, but what frustrated some team members was that Allen refused to accept the injection to paralyze the pain and continue to play, Apparently the former has been isolated.
You must know that Jarrett Allen, who plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2023-2024 season, has played a total of 77 games in the regular season. He averaged 16.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game, played a total of four games in the playoffs, averaged 17 points, 13.8 rebounds and 13 assists per game, his defense is very good, and he has a strong ability to protect the frame, for him, there is a chance to sign a three-year, $90.7 million contract extension with the team in the offseason, so there is no need to get yourself into trouble in order to advance, and avoid being like Thomas Jr., Cousins, Oladipo, Griffin, and Ibaka.
Now with the Cleveland Cavaliers losing to the Celtics and missing the Eastern Conference Finals, for them, it is normal for them to lose a Donovan Mitchell who can fight against Tatum and Brown, and lose this series, but at this time, the team is in a situation of infighting, because the starting core Jarrett Allen, due to a rib injury, refused to play behind closed doors to help the team fight for the chance to advance, isolated by his teammates, and also very frustrated with the attitude of the former. It has to be said that the NBA league also has moral kidnapping, not profit maximization.
