Chapter 386: Sweep to Win the Championship! (Ask for subscription)
In the first game of the finals, the Grizzlies won with great ease.
This made Qiao Hai full of confidence, and in the second game, Qiao Hai continued to implement the strategy of the first game.
In the first quarter of the game, the Grizzlies' main and main rotation averaged the playing time, relying on a strong offense, the Grizzlies still took a 5-point lead at the end of the first quarter.
In the second quarter of the game, when Iverson was resting, Qiao Hai went directly to Maddie and gave unlimited firing rights.
Maddie's form is still hot, and after having unlimited firing rights, in the first five minutes of the second quarter, Maddie scored nine points in a row and overtook Iverson in individual scoring.
Subsequently, Iverson was forced to appear, and the two began a battle again.
At halftime, the Grizzlies led by 14 points.
In the second half, seeing that the Grizzlies were about to take a big lead to lock up the victory in advance, the referee began to control the court again, and Iverson could win a foul with a casual breakthrough, relying on this degree of biased whistle, the 76ers began to chase points.
On the other side, Qiao Hai was also ruthless, and according to the way he played against the Lakers, he threw off Wang Zhan and replaced him with the strongest offensive lineup of the Grizzlies.
In the third quarter, in the middle of the full side whistle, in the Grizzlies' explosive offense, in the third quarter, the two teams were tied.
As a result, the margin is still 14 points.
Seeing that the 76ers couldn't support the wall, the Grizzlies fans on the sidelines were angry again, and in the fourth quarter, the referees didn't dare to continue the away whistle.
After the penalty scale relaxed slightly, the Grizzlies made another effort and stretched the gap to 20 points in one wave.
At the end of the game, the Grizzlies defeated the 76ers again 122-103.
In this game, Maddy played the full four quarters of the game, scoring 33 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals.
On the other side, Iverson, who made fouls in the second half, scored 48 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 steals.
As a result, Joe began to worry about the next two games, and in order to complete the mission, the Grizzlies must lock up Iverson or let Maddie brush up on a statistic that is better than Iverson.
On June 10, the game traveled to Philadelphia.
At the Wachovia Center, the third match of the finals began.
In this game, Iverson continued to go on a rampage, and with the addition of the home whistle, he once again slashed 47 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists.
On the other hand, Qiao Hai also gave Maddie more shots, Maddie was in good shape, and he also flew up, and this game also cut a gorgeous data of 46 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, in terms of data, Maddie has no disadvantage.
On top of that, the Grizzlies won again, but it was hard-won, with just over three minutes to go into the game, with only a three-point lead ahead of the game.
At the last moment, Maddy, who was more physically active, broke out and scored 7 points with a sudden shot, and the Grizzlies relied on Maddy's consecutive scores in the final moments to win the game.
With a 3-0 lead in the finals, McBrin was already announcing: "The Grizzlies won the 2001 championship!" ”
……
Two days later, the fourth game.
David Stern arrived, because the Grizzlies had a high probability of beating the 76ers to win the championship in this game, and the Wachovia Center had to prepare for the award ceremony.
At the same time, because David Stern was on the floor, and the league knew it couldn't stop the Grizzlies from winning the championship.
The referees still want face, of course, they want the face on the surface, in this case, they don't dare to blow the home whistle or something.
As a result, the Grizzlies, who were not affected by the bias whistle, broke out and led the 76ers by 7 points at 32:25 in the first quarter.
Then, in the second quarter, Qiao Hai continued to brush Maddie.
The Grizzlies also extended their lead further, taking an 18-point lead at halftime.
In the third quarter, the 76ers fans in the Wachovia Center began to leave the game, and the 76ers took advantage of this time to fight back and narrow the gap to 13 points.
Qiao Hai quickly adjusted, and the Grizzlies re-suppressed the 76ers.
After three quarters, the Grizzlies led the 76ers by 17 points, 89-72.
In the fourth quarter, which was almost equal to garbage time, both teams played the quarter with their main forces, and the Grizzlies held the lead.
But the beep of the final timer sounds, and the red light of the scoreboard comes on.
The game is over!
At 117:99, the Grizzlies defeated the 76ers again!
The Grizzlies' bench was boiling, the five main players on the field also raised their hands, and the coaches hugged each other and won! The champion is the Grizzlies!
The camera focused on everyone in the Grizzly Bears, Maddie hugged every player, Chauncy Billups was excited to be interviewed by reporters, Patrick Ewing was standing in front of Qiao Hai, the 2.13-meter-tall giant, excitedly hugging Qiao Hai's little man.
"Thank you, Coach!"
It's been a rewarding season for Patrick Ewing.
This season, he won the first Defensive Player of the Year award in his career, entered the All-Defensive Team for the first time, and at the end of his career, he lifted the O'Brien Cup as the heart of the defense!
Qiao Hai patted Ewing's wide back, and then Maddie also came over.
"Coach, hopefully we can continue to work together and hopefully this O'Brien Cup is not the last."
Qiao Hai smiled and didn't answer, but also just patted Maddie on the back.
Another O'Brien Cup is in hand, which is the second in a row for the Grizzlies and the third in a row for Qiao Hai.
The championship never ends, and Qiao Hai will not stop his steps.
But he can't guarantee that in the next O'Brien Cup, the MVP player on the team will still be Maddie, and even can't guarantee that the next time he wins the championship, the team name engraved on the championship trophy will still be the Vancouver Grizzlies.
……
……
The award ceremony began quickly, and before that, Qiao Hai calculated the data.
In four games, Maddy averaged 37.75 points, 7.75 rebounds, 6.75 assists, 1.5 steals, 0.5 blocks, 44.1% shooting from the field, and 46.7% from three-point range.
Iverson, on the other hand, averaged 42.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 6.25 assists and 1.5 steals per game while shooting 40.7 percent from the field and 28.2 percent from three-point range.
Iverson has a higher score, but Maddie is more versatile and more efficient.
Coupled with the Grizzlies' win, and the only anxious game, at the last moment of the third game, Maddie scored 7 points in a row to decide, and all kinds of impression points were added, Qiao Hai knew that the MVP of the finals would not be left behind.
On the court, the host began to announce: "It was the Vancouver Grizzlies who won the 2000-2001 NBA championship!" ”
Then, amid a cheer, team captain Raheem raised the O'Brien Cup with both hands.
After the blockbuster speech, David Stern then announced: "The MVP of the 2001 Finals is Tracy McGrady!" ”
Maddie lifted the Finals MVP trophy! This is his personal second! It is also the second in a row.
Qiao Hai smiled and applauded vigorously.
There was also a hint in his ears that only he could hear.

"All the quests have been completed, please receive the rewards in time."
"Main quest - lead the Grizzlies to defend the championship to completion! Please ask the host to claim the reward in time. ”
