Curry returned to the court at the start of the fourth quarter.

The Miami Heat resorted to their old tricks, targeting Curry once again, and they made the most of Curry's dominance.

Being bullied like this, the elementary school student was also holding a grudge, and his thunderous offensive momentum put tremendous pressure on the Miami Heat.

Curry's three consecutive three-pointers taught the Miami Heat lesson.

The Warriors' other players also moved around the court nimbly, constantly stretching the Miami Heat's defensive formation.

The Warriors' offensive tactics flowed smoothly, and the seamless coordination between Curry, Klay Thompson, Leonard, and DeRozan made it impossible for the Miami Heat's defense to stop their offensive momentum.

They made the most of every shooting opportunity, accurately hitting three-pointers and mid-range shots. The Warriors were united and worked hard to widen the score gap.

However, the Miami Heat did not back down and fought back against the Warriors' immense pressure.

They played tight man-to-man defense, attempting to weaken the Warriors' offense. The Miami Heat players fought hard, demonstrating unwavering determination and excellent counter-attack ability.

Despite falling behind, they did not give up the fight, but quickly adjusted their tactics, strengthening their teamwork and ball movement in attack.

James displayed exceptional athleticism, charging like a tank, relentlessly attacking the Warriors' basket and causing Warriors considerable trouble.

With three minutes left in the game, James continued his drives to the basket, and Garnett, worn down by James's drives, was starting to tire. Even Garnett was struggling to keep up, and he was forcing himself to keep going, but he was giving it his all for the Finals MVP.

Just as Garnett stepped up, James suddenly lost his footing and collapsed to the ground with a thud.

This unexpected turn of events momentarily stunned Garnett. Although he didn't know exactly what had happened, as a seasoned veteran, his reaction was incredibly quick. After regaining possession, Garnett immediately made a long pass to Curry.

Curry received the ball and immediately launched a three-pointer.

The Warriors extended their lead to 98-91, a total of 7 points.

At that moment, the referee's whistle blew.

James was seen lying on the ground, clutching his thigh.

Good heavens, James actually got a leg cramp! I can't believe James got a thigh cramp from overexertion.

You can imagine how strong the Warriors' stamina is.

The Miami Heat called a timeout of one and a half minutes. Miami Heat head coach Riley, with a grim face, asked, "LeBron, how's it going?"

The team doctor said, "It's best to rest..."

But before the team doctor could finish speaking, James interrupted, "I have no problem, coach."

Seeing the determination in James's eyes, Riley nodded, Riley looked at the Miami Heat players, finally settling on Wade, and said, "Dwyane, you'll be the main offensive force from now on."

James was slightly taken aback by these words, feeling somewhat displeased, but he didn't say anything.

Wade was also somewhat surprised, so he said, "Coach, how about..."

"I don't want to hear my players questioning me, Dwyane. This is a one-time exception." Riley was clearly very unhappy with Wade's criticism.

"Understood, Coach," Wade said, somewhat fearfully.

The game resumed after the timeout period ended.

The Miami Heat inbound the ball.

Wade drove past the mid-court line with a dummy step and made a layup.

98 to 93.

Warriors on offense.

Garnett used his excellent physical qualities and agile footwork to cleverly shake off Bosh and drive straight for the basket.

At the same time, Curry's pass seemed to have a GPS tracker, accurately delivering the ball to Garnett.

With his shooting touch on fire, Garnett didn't hesitate to leap up and fly towards the basket.

Garnett slammed the ball into the basket, drawing a foul from Battier who was trying to help defend.

After Garnett dunked on Battier, he pounded his chest and roared.

Garnett's spectacular dunk not only added valuable points for the Warriors, but also greatly boosted Warriors morale.

At the same time, this powerful dunk showcased Garnett's superb skills and outstanding performance as a superstar, and it will undoubtedly be one of the top 5 plays of the game.

"Kevin dunked beautifully," Curry said with a hint of envy.

Yes, Curry is envious, but his physical gifts don't allow him to dunk, so Curry greatly admires those players who can fly and leap on the court.

Li Chen was the best among them, especially Li Chen double-crossover dunk from the free-throw line.

A moment later, Garnett also made his free throw.

101 to 93.

In the transition between offense and defense, James received a pass from Wade and made a floater over Leonard from the edge of the paint.

101 to 95.

Curry launched a sudden attack from a step beyond the three-point line, but unfortunately the basketball spun twice inside the rim before flying out.

At this crucial moment, Garnett demonstrated his outstanding basketball talent and unparalleled defensive awareness.

With his exceptional agility and reflexes, he reacted quickly and moved rapidly to the backboard position.

The court was filled with a tense and fierce competitive atmosphere, with every player wholeheartedly chasing after ownership of the rebound.

This offensive rebound was crucial for the Warriors.

He not only gave the Warriors a second chance on offense, but also boosted the team's morale.

Garnett's outstanding performance instilled confidence in the team and inspired his teammates to work even harder and perform at their best.

At that moment, Bosh and James seemed to be on the same wavelength, and began to double -Garnett.

The double-teaming of two All-Stars calmed Garnett down from his heated moment.

He then passed the ball to Curry again.

Stephen Curry received the basketball, bent his knees, and then shot it.

His movements were like a beautiful symphony, showcasing his outstanding skills and superb level on the basketball court.

The basketball slipped from his fingers and flew towards the rim, eagerly anticipating future victory.

This excellent shot is the result of Stephen Curry's years of careful guidance from his father, Old Curry.

Through countless hours of practice, he continuously improved his skills, earning praise and admiration from basketball fans worldwide.

Just as a musician plays a piano key repeatedly to eventually create a moving melody, Stephen Curry has created countless classic moments on the court with his unique basketball style.

Of course, Li Chen also deserves credit for this; the shooting posture provided by the system is the epitome of perfection, and its shooting motion can increase the shooting accuracy.

Since accepting Li Chen's advice, Curry's shooting percentage has increased by at least 5%.

Swish! The basketball goes through the net cleanly.

104 to 95.

Inside a VIP box at the Aviation Stadium.

"Mr. Allison, time is running out for your Miami Heat!" Li Chen said with a calm smile.

Mickey Allison glanced at the time on the big screen and said calmly, "No rush, there's still time."

With two minutes left in the NBA Finals and a nine-point deficit, the Miami Heat are truly over.

In the end, just as Li Chen had imagined, the Miami Heat failed to turn the tide.

They ultimately lost the game 100-105.

Meanwhile, the Warriors and Miami Heat are now tied 1-1 in the series.

"Chen, congratulations, you've won. As a businessman, I will not break my promise, please rest assured."

Li Chen nodded and said, "I have great faith in Mr. Allison's character."

After thinking for a moment, Li Chen finally said, "Mr. Allison, please tell Mr. Jo Rob that if he wants shares in the Warriors, he can come to me."

With that, Li Chen stood up, shook hands with him, and then took his leave.

Allison was stunned, not understanding why Li Chen would do such a thing.

After watching Li Chen's figure disappear, he frowned and took out his phone.

A short while later...

"Jora, congratulations, your wish has come true."

"Mickey, what do you mean?" Jo Rob asked in surprise.

He's currently thinking about what to do with the two hundred million dollars he has.

Then Mickey Allison recounted what had happened.

After hearing Mickey Allison's account, Jo Rob was overjoyed.

"Mickey, thank you so much this time," Jo Rob said sincerely.

"We're all family, no need to be so polite," Allison said with a faint smile.

Meanwhile, in the Warriors' locker room, Li Chen pushed open the door and shouted, "Kids, well done! You guys helped me win a bet!"

Curry and the others were slightly taken aback, then Harden reacted, "So, boss, you don't have any reward for me?"

"Of course I do." Li Chen gave Harden, who had no beard, a meaningful look.

Harden was overjoyed, "Boss, I've got my eye on a sports car, why don't you buy one for each of you!"

Li Chen nodded with a smile, "Sure, no problem at all."

Harden was overjoyed, and just as he was about to flatter him, Li Chen spoke up again, "However, you need to train for more than 10 hours every day."

Upon hearing this, Harden's mouth formed an "O" shape, his eyes widened, and then he shook his head vigorously, "Then forget it! I'll wait until I have the money to buy it myself!"

Upon seeing this, the other players burst into laughter.

As for why Li Chen wanted to sell his shares, there was nothing he could do about it.

He was slightly worried because he suddenly realized that the group of Jews was more united than he had imagined.

You know, he has a lot of money now! His stocks are worth at least hundreds of billions of dollars, which is a lot of money. Now he's wondering if he can take all that money with him, so he has to make preparations in advance.

After all, his current identity is that of an Easterner known as the "Big Fat Sheep."

Therefore, he must first appease this group of people who control 80% of the wealth in the United States.

Moreover, if he wants to take down Morey, he'll have to put in some effort. After all, Morey once boasted that he would make it impossible for Harden to stay in the NBA, so it's safe to assume he has some connections.

Therefore, to get rid of Morey, you have to touch the interests of the Jewish people, so that Morey will pay the price.

Li Chen suddenly felt that the United States was not good at all, unlike the comfortable life back home!

The next day at noon, Jo Rob rushed to Oracle Arena.

"Hello, Mr. Cobb," Li Chen said, standing up to shake hands with him.

"Oh! I'm so glad to see you, Chen," Jo Rob said, beaming.

A short while later, Li Chen and Jo Rob sat facing each other.

"Chen, I really didn't expect that you just bought the Warriors and Warriors 've already made it to the NBA Finals. I really can't believe it!"

Jo Rob spoke sincerely; he genuinely didn't expect the Warriors to rise so quickly. In his view, it would be at least five years before the Warriors took off. He greatly admired Li Chen for this.

At this moment, Li Chen straightened himself up and said, "Mr. Cobb, I wonder if you'd like to take a stake in the Young Warriors?"

Jo Rob paused for a moment, then tentatively said, "I want to use all the money I have to buy shares in the Warriors."

"All of it? That's nearly three hundred million US dollars."

Li Chen's words to himself stirred up a storm in Jo Rob's heart.

He truly couldn't believe that Li Chen had so readily revealed his entire fortune. How... how did he do that?

Li Chen completely ignored Jo Rob's shocked expression and said, "Mr. Cobb, if two years ago this amount of money could have bought you 40% of the Warriors' shares, but now..."

At this point, Li Chen shook his head slightly and said, "You can't buy 40% of the shares." Then Li Chen explained, "Mr. Cobb, you must have seen the Warriors' performance this season. If we can win the championship, our market value will be at least $1 billion. Even if we don't win the championship, our market value will still reach $800 million. And this is just next season. I believe the Warriors will surpass the New York Knicks' market value in the future."

Hearing this, Jo Rob felt a pang of heartache. If only he had had the money back then...

However, having been in the business world for a long time, he had long since reached a point where he remained calm and expressionless in the face of adversity.

He simply nodded, then said, "Mr. Li, how many shares can you transfer for the $275 million?"

Li Chen waved his hand and said, "Mr. Cobb, I have no problem giving you the shares, but what benefits can you bring me?"

Li Chen's point is that the shares can be traded to you, but you, Jo Rob, must demonstrate your value.

Li Chen's words surprised Jo Rob once again. At that moment, Jo Rob suddenly realized that Li Chen was indeed a businessman through and through.

However, this was also the kind of person he liked the most. Later, the two reached an agreement, with Jo Rob exchanging his connections for a 20% stake in the Warriors.

Jo Rob was very satisfied with the shareholders' benefits offered by Li Chen; being as intelligent as he was, he naturally understood Li Chen's sincerity.

At this moment, Li Chen and Jo Rob started talking about the Warriors' roster.

At this moment, Li Chen smiled and said, "Jora, in your opinion, how many All-Star Player can the Warriors produce?"

Jo Rob thought for a moment and said confidently, "At least three."

Hearing this, Li Chen smiled.

After switching home courts, the Warriors dominated at home, winning two consecutive games and taking a 3-1 lead over the Miami Heat in the series.

In Game 5, back at the Miami Heat's home court, James unleashed his full potential, scoring 35 points to secure the victory and bring the series score to 2-3.

Game 6 will be played at Oracle Arena, the Warriors' home arena.

The Warriors players were determined to win this game.

And that was indeed the case; the Warriors' offense was incredibly smooth from the start.

Curry, in particular, hit three three-pointers in a row at the start of the first quarter, forcing the Miami Heat.

After the timeout, Curry was contained, and the Warriors' offense was somewhat stifled.

However, the Warriors have more than just Curry as a shooter!
