Can James defeat the healthy Rose?

Can James defeat the healthy Rose? What a joke! Some people always think that James is "he is invincible under Jordan, and Jordan will change one by one." He can easily crush anyone in his career, but is this really the case?

Let’s take a look at Rose’s strength first. He entered the NBA as the No. 1 pick in 2008, and his physical fitness and basketball talent were simply amazing. In the 2010-2011 season, Rose, who was only 22 years old, won the regular season MVP and became the youngest MVP winner in NBA history. He once said, "I have high expectations for myself, and I was wondering, why can't I become the most valuable player in the league? Why can't I become the best player in the league? Why can't I do it?" This confidence and ambition were fully demonstrated in his game. His breakthrough speed is amazingly fast and his explosive power is super strong. He can often make incredible goals, disrupting his opponent's defense line. At his peak, the Bulls were a powerful team in the East that cannot be ignored. Ross once deeply analyzed himself and talked about the three keywords of "self-cognition, self-positioning, and self-awakening". His attitude towards basketball can be seen from these words. On the court, he also dominated the direction of the game with his clear self-cognition and sharp breakthroughs and bold attacks again and again.

Look at James, he does have excellent physical conditions and his data has always been good-looking. He is an evergreen in the NBA and has the highest overall score in history. But it would be a bit too exaggerated to say that he could easily defeat Ross. Judging from the data of the two, although James won more games, the gap is not that big. The two met 22 times in the regular season, James won 12 games and Ross won 10 games; 16 games in the playoffs, James won 12 games and Ross won 4 games. Ross' average data per game is not bad. In the confrontation with James, he can also score considerable points and give away many assists. James once shared his life motto: "YOLO (You Only Live Once)," emphasizing that you should live every day in the present. But in the competition, especially at some critical moments in key competitions, he often falls into hesitation, which is contrary to the positive and courageous attitude he advocates. And Ross, no matter what difficulties he faces, always maintained a high fighting spirit on the court. As he said, "Even if I can, I will not change any experience in my life, because these are the reasons why I found true happiness." This pure love for basketball made him never fear when facing James.

Some people say that James' defense can limit Ross, but can James really defend Ross's breakthrough like lightning? Ross' breakthrough at his peak often directly fights his opponent's defense and forcibly hits the basket to score. Although James is strong, Ross' speed and change direction are not vegetarians. He can easily get rid of James' defense with just one acceleration. Moreover, Ross also has a skill in mid-range shooting. Once the breakthrough is blocked, his mid-range can exert his power. When talking about his advice to young players, Ross mentioned that if he wants to score in the NBA, he has to pass the "beautiful, bad and cruelty". His own career perfectly interprets this. After experiencing the cruel blow of injuries, he can still shine on the court. In the confrontation with James, this perseverance is fully reflected.

From the perspective of game style, Ross's style of play is full of passion and aggressiveness. He always takes the initiative to attack the opponent's defense and drives the team's offensive rhythm. Ross once said that he wanted to express himself as much as he wanted on the court, treat the court as his sanctuary, and freely demonstrate his skills. As for James, sometimes hesitant to play, especially at critical moments, passing the ball or attacking by himself, which often makes his teammates confused. Ross won't have such a problem. He is the core of the offense on the court, with absolute confidence and courage. James once mentioned in his evaluation of Ross that Ross' tenacity is admirable, but he himself did not show the momentum of burning his boats in the game, and he did not have the domineering aura of no one else than me at the moment of the life and death ball.

If Ross stays healthy, his showdown with James will definitely be even more exciting. Ross is definitely capable of competing with James and even defeating James in some games. Those who say that James can defeat Ross, it is really time to take a look at the game at Ross during his peak period. Don’t be confused by the “powerfulness” that James has shown. After all, basketball is not Excel, and Excel can’t defeat the majority of fans even if it is laning, and it cannot win the fans’ damn respect!
