On one side is the team that is the first team in the regular season, and on the other side is the defending champion, four superstars, and two top coaches.

Just listening to these descriptions is enough to fill people with anticipation.

Not to mention the Yao Shark duel, the Chinese derby, and the battle for Sun Mai's scoring title.

Smart people have seized the opportunity to start publicizing it.

On the night that the finals match was officially confirmed, 2K officially posted this tweet on Facebook: Which team do you think will be this year's NBA champion?

At the bottom of this tweet, 2K made a comparison chart of the player ability attribute values of the two teams, and even the ratings of the head coaches on both sides are impressively listed, which is intuitive and three-dimensional.

Wizards: Yao Ming (96), Maddie (93), Hamilton (85), Juwan Howard (81), Mutombo (80), Jamil Nelson (79), Alexander (78), Jarvis Hayes (75), Tyronn Lue (71......

Manager: Rick Carlisle (95)

Lakers: Sun Hao (98), O'Neal (91), Finley (84), Walker (83), Payton (81), Ariza (79), Mourning (77), Horry (76), Christie (72...... Zhu Fangyu (66) ......

Manager: Phil Jackson (99)

Last summer's latest release, 2K6, was a revolutionary generation.

Because of the update to this generation, "2K" has sold more than the "" series for the first time in history.

There are reasons for the technological innovation of "2K", and there is also the credit of Sun Hao's endorsement.

But in any case, the "2K" series began to become a basketball game that fans paid more attention to.

So this tweet they sent attracted a lot of heated discussions among fans, and at the same time, it also added fuel to the popularity of their own games.

By the next day, there had been a blowout increase in sales of "2K".

This shows that before the finals have started, fans can't wait to play in the game first.

And soon, someone posted the simulated results of the competition on Facebook.

The results vary, but the Lakers defended their title significantly more.

Some fans even lamented that they deserve to be the spokesperson of the team.

At this time, 2K has not changed a spokesperson as it will be in the future, and Sun Hao has become a 2K spokesperson for the third year.

Some people may ask, "2K" is thriving, why didn't Sun Hao buy it before it was like Google?

In that case, you can definitely make a lot of money.

Don't say it, Gu Yi really had similar thoughts, and more than once.

Especially when "2K5" came out to show technological innovation, and the authenticity of the sweat drop effect aroused fans' enthusiasm.

In fact, there has been a transfer of "2K" in history, and what really made "2K" shine was the later "" company.

The reason why Sun Hao didn't agree is also very simple, to avoid suspicion.

If his company had bought 2K, his rating would have been 99 in the future, or even a replica of O'Neal's 100, and there would have been no more controversy.

Although he is not as fanatical about 2K ratings as McGee, he still has pursuits.

There are a lot of things to make money, and he doesn't need to give himself a saliva because of a basketball game.

"2K" has made a lot of money in popularity, which has also made the finals more and more exciting.

After all, games are just games, and reality has more uncertainties than games.

But no matter how much you look forward to it, you have to wait, and the finals will not be played until two days later.

It was also at this time that the league announced the attribution of the final batch of awards of the season.

There are three categories for this batch of awards, the best rookie team, the best defensive team, and the best team.

All-Rookie Team 1: Chris Paul (Bulls), Deron Williams (Hornets), Danny Granger (Bulls), Marvin Williams (Bobcats), Andrew Bogut (Bucks);

All-Rookie Second Team: Raymond Filton (Bobcats), Luther Hyde (Houston), Ryan Gomez (Celtics), Channing Frye (Cavaliers), Charlie Villanueva (Raptors);

Although Bogut didn't get many votes in the Rookie of the Year selection, this rookie was mediocre and no one competed with him.

Some people may ask what about David Lee and Bynum?

David Lee has had limited opportunities to perform in New York this season.

In history, Li also belongs to the type of gradually becoming famous.

And then there's Bynum.

Here we have to mention the difference between the Lakers in history and the current Clippers.

In terms of overall strength, the Clippers are clearly the stronger side.

And the Clippers' interior configuration is Brande Gakarman.

Historically, Bynum's rookie season with the Lakers has basically been spent on the bench, and even more so on the bench with the Clippers.

As for whether he can complete the counterattack like in history, this really depends on the opportunity.

There's another guy to keep an eye on, Granger, who, despite being on the Bulls and playing off the bench, is even better than the same period in history.

The topic of "Paul can make his teammates better" is basically not much controversial.

All-Defensive First Team: Kidd (Nets), Kobe Bryant (Mavericks), Bowen (Spurs), Artest (Kings), Ben Wallace (Pistons);

Best Defensive Second Team: Billups (Pistons), Prince (Pistons), Kirilenko (Jazz), Garnett (Timberwolves), Duncan (Spurs);

Eagle-eyed fans will notice that the Pistons have three players named to the All-Defensive Team this year, but unfortunately they were eliminated by the Wizards.

On the one hand, this shows the hard power of the Wizards, and on the other hand, the impact of the hand-check rule is visible to the naked eye.

Another noteworthy thing is that O'Neal didn't even score a defensive second this year.

This is also a direct manifestation of O'Neal's deterioration on the defensive end as he gains weight.

Best lineup for a while: Sun Hao, Kobe, James, Duncan, Yao Ming;

All-Team Second Team: Nash, Maddy, Anthony, Stoudemire, O'Neal;

All-Star three teams: Iverson, Arenas, Wade, Brand, Howard;

This year's best lineup can be described as Dancing with Gods and Demons, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most competitive in the past decade.

Not to mention Pierce, Reed, Ray Allen, Marion, and other stars who have performed well this season, even Carter, Garnett and Nowitzki have all been selected for the best team!

And you take a look at the list of the best teams that came out and you will see that they are ...... No one can squeeze it out!

One might say Brand.

But Human Brand led the team to the playoffs with 24.7 points, 10 rebounds and 2.6 assists in the regular season this season, and averaged 25.3 points, 10.3 rebounds and 4 assists per game in the playoffs!

The release of these best teams, like the All-Star Game, has attracted frequent saliva and controversy.

But the good news is that before these saliva are over, the curtain of the finals has officially opened, attracting all the attention of fans back.

The Wizards have the league's highest regular season record and all home-court advantage in the playoffs, with the first two games of the Finals being played in Washington.

The Lakers practice in Washington a day early.

On the training day, the training of the two teams attracted a large number of reporters.

As I said before, there are so many topics to talk about in this year's finals.

"Yao, how does it feel to meet Sun again in the finals? Do you have the confidence to beat him this time? ”

Yao Ming, as the star of the Wizards, is naturally the focus of reporters.

Although it has not been a long time, many fans may have forgotten that three years ago, Sun Hao and Jordan were the focus of attention on the court in the finals of that year, Yao Ming had participated in it and performed well.

"I'm not on the same page with him!"

Yao Ming's answer is very Yao-style humorous.

After making the reporter laugh, Yao Ming answered seriously.

"Three years ago, I was Jordan's junior sider, but this year, I'm already leading the team with T-mac, and I've always had that confidence, but more importantly, I can't find an excuse to lose this time."

Of course, a serious is a serious one, and Yao-style humor is still indispensable.

"And what do you think of your upcoming confrontation with Shaq?"

The reporter then asked.

"Shaq's guy is ridiculously strong, but I have my own strengths."

"Huh?"

"I'm younger than him."

"Haha."

"I just have to fight him for 25 or 30 minutes, and when he loses his energy, it's up to him to figure out what to do with me."

Yao Ming's words are full of confidence, and of course he also has his ball quotient.

But what he didn't say was that he still had a height advantage, and with O'Neal's current defensive ability, there was a high probability that the two would explode each other most of the time.

"Yao will win, we will win."

Towards the end of Yao Ming's interview, Maddie leaned over to rub the heat.

After finishing speaking, his eyes blinked and discharged, and he didn't know how many people's youth were taken away.

Speaking of which, he and Sun Hao's soaring scores in Orlando are still fresh in his memory, and now he and Sun Hao meet in the finals.

He may not have attracted as much attention as Yao Ming, but for him, it was his best battle for fame.

Winning this championship is more important to him than anything else.

"I'm rested."

The Lakers were interviewed after training by "Big Shark" O'Neal, and when the reporter relayed what Yao Ming said in the interview, he only said this.

The implication of this sentence is that he was "recuperating" in the regular season and in all previous playoffs, but now he has rested enough!

This is a bit like a mouthful, but when it comes out of the mouth of the "big shark", it gives people more of a feeling of domineering leakage.

"No matter who the opponent is, no matter how many more games there are, it will be us who wins, and no one can take it away!"

And when expected by the problem finals, "Big Shark" directly put cruel words.

This is rare in O'Neill.

But perhaps only Sun Hao knows that a big reason for this is the promise that O'Neill told him at the beginning:

"If you really fail to win the MVP, then I will do my best to help you get the FMVP."

The premise of this sentence is that the Lakers must defend their title.

On one side is Yao Ming, who is humorous and confident, and on the other hand, O'Neill, who has few ambitions.

These voices before the start of the finals made the finals feel like gunsmoke, and of course, they also made fans look forward to it more and more.

On June 8, when many high school candidates in China ushered in the most important exam in their lives, the NBA's biggest "exam" finally kicked off.

The Verizon Center Arena was packed.

As the political center of Washington, it is theoretically difficult for the ball market to get bigger, but first Jordan, and then Yao Mai, the ball market here is not hot.

To paraphrase a joke from fans before the game: If the Wizards really win the championship in the end, then when they visit the White House next year, the team can save a lot of transportation expenses.

There were also many fans at the scene holding Yao Mai's big head KT board, and the scene in front of them was only big than the historical Houston team.

But this is also a matter of course, the Houston team is dying to break the first round, but the Wizards are now playing in the Finals!

When the two teams warmed up before the game, the reporter did not interview the players of the two teams again, but went straight to the basketball god in the front row of the audience.

Jordan couldn't hide a smile on his face.

The Wizards ranked first in the league in the regular season, Yao Ming won the MVP, Yao Mai was selected to the best team, and the team also reached the finals as desired.

As long as the Wizards manage to win the championship, then this season will be "perfect" in the true sense of the word.

"Are you expecting the team to win the championship?"

"Of course, my left finger has been empty for a long time."

Jordan held out his hand as he spoke.

Well, the gesture is invincible.

"Yao has grown up to be able to fight against Shaq, how about the comparison of the strength of T-mac and Sun?"

The reporter immediately moved on to the next question.

"I sometimes play with that guy from Tracey and teach him some scoring skills, and it's not much, but it's me, and he's improved a lot."

Jordan said with a smile.

"Do you mean that T-mac is stronger than Sun now?"

Jordan's laughter turned to laughter before he spoke.

"Sun's performance will be better, but I'm sure it's going to be us."

His next words sounded a little unanswered, and it was clear that he hadn't jumped into the pit.

After the warm-up on both sides is over, the scene enters the opening ceremony.

When Yao Mai appeared, the cheers at the scene were overwhelming.

No one could have imagined that the Wizards would make it back to the Finals so quickly, and that included Wizards fans.

So their excitement now is beyond words, and everything is in cheers.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups on both sides were also released.

On the Wizards' side, Nelson, Hamilton, Maddy, Uncle Huo, Yao Ming;

On the Lakers' side, Payton, Sun Hao, Ariza, Walker, O'Neal;

Both sides use the most regular lineup.

Although the two teams have played each other before, including last season.

But the playoffs are still different from the regular season, and at the beginning of the series, both sides are still just groping around the hole, and the temptation is the main thing.

The game started immediately, with both teams starting one after another.

The finals are imminent.

It was at this time that ESPN's latest statistics showed that at the moment before the game, the NBA's all-time new ratings were broken in an instant!

This is already the most watched grand finale ever!

ps: Little eggplant has been a little cold recently, and I woke up at 1 o'clock last night, and then I had to watch the video, and I saw it until more than 5 o'clock, and I almost didn't drive me crazy......
