"Although there is a very obvious gap between the Nets and the Pacers in terms of scores, it is undeniable that today's game is the most exciting one in this round of the series, and this year's Eastern Conference Finals is also the most exciting round of matchups in recent years. When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Magic Johnson immediately stood up from the commentary box and used slightly sensational words to close this year's Eastern Conference Finals.

"Erwin said very well, Meng Xu and Jason Kidd performed impeccable in this series, this is a legendary matchup." After Magic Johnson, Michaels also took over the conversation and continued to say a few words, after a slight pause, Michaels put down the serious expression on his face, and then continued with a smile: "First of all, let's congratulate the Pacers, after a two-year hiatus, return to the Finals again, of course, and Meng Xu, it's hard to imagine that in the third year of his career, he led the team to the Finals alone, which is a miracle that even Michael has not completed, maybe we can look forward to it now, He'll be the next Michael. Congratulations to Jason Kidd and the Nets, who have had a very successful season despite their failure to reach the Finals, and with this year's experience, there is reason to believe that the New Jersey Nets will be even stronger next season. ”

After Michaels finished speaking, Michaels and Magic Johnson almost simultaneously stretched out their hands to applaud the players on the court, which was given to the Pacers, who have reached the Finals twice in three years, and the Nets, who lost the game. In this round of the series, Meng Xu and Kidd both completed the miracle of averaging 3-doubles per game, Meng Xu is 30+ triple-doubles per game, and Kidd is 3-doubles per game of 25+, and the two have 3 doubles at the same time in 3 consecutive games, which is also the first time in NBA history.

"Boss, we've won, we're in the finals, we're in the finals!" When the whistle blew at the end of the game, Jamal Tinsley and Jermaine O'Neal, as well as Bobby Simmons on the bench, immediately rushed in the direction where Meng Xu was, surrounded Meng Xu, and yelled wildly, Bobby Simmons and Jamal Tinsley are both rookies this year, they never thought that they could reach the Finals with the team in their rookie season, especially Jamal Tinsley, or as the main point guard of the Pacers to the Finals with the team, This kind of thing that I didn't even dare to think about in the past has come true today, how can they not be excited, not crazy, and Jermaine O'Neal is similar, although Jermaine O'Neal entered the league several years earlier than Meng Xu, but this is also the first time he has entered the finals.

Just when the Pacers, including the staff accompanying the team, rushed into the court to celebrate, as the head coach of the team, Larry Bird was standing on the sidelines at the moment, putting his hands on his chest, looking at the players who were celebrating wildly on the court with a smile on his face, and he didn't know what he was thinking about at the moment.

"Larry, we won!" As a veteran player who is accustomed to seeing the world, Reggie Miller did not rush into the field to celebrate like the young players inside, but quietly walked to Larry Bird's side, but looking at Reggie Miller's flushed face and slightly shaking hands, I knew that he was just pretending to be calm at the moment. The Pacers were able to return to the Finals so soon, which was definitely a big surprise to Reggie Miller, but for the current Reggie Miller, if he can't win the championship, everything is equal to zero, so Reggie Miller is also suppressing his inner excitement at the moment and walked to Larry Bird's side, wanting to know the head coach's next move.

"yes, we won, finals, we're back!" After hearing Reggie Miller's words, Larry Bird raised his head slightly and looked at the ceiling of the Banker's Life Arena, which was very appropriate, just as Larry Bird's words fell, after a muffled sound, the confetti in the sky fell from the air, and the DJ on the scene yelled loudly that the Pacers had reached the finals again, and then the entire Banker's Life Arena instantly resounded with a tsunami-like cheer.

"Finals, we're back." With the cheers of the audience, Reggie Miller, who was standing on the sidelines, waved his fists and roared loudly.

When the fifth game of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Pacers and the Nets came to an end, neither the winning Pacers nor the losing Nets left the basketball court, as the losing side of the Nets, most of the players were leaning on the billboards on the sidelines at this moment, looking at the opponents who were celebrating frantically with a bitter and helpless face, at this moment, their hearts were undoubtedly very complicated, perhaps for them, no one could be sure when the next time they would enter the division finals, so everyone was reluctant to leave, I don't want to leave this stage. As the boss of the Nets, Jason Kidd sat directly on the ground, one hand constantly caressing the floor of the Bankers' Life Arena, and tears kept rolling in his eyes, and Jason Kidd tried to control it not to flow out. After a while, Jason Kidd sighed in a low voice, then got up and stood up, and took the initiative to walk towards Meng Xu, who had left the center of the court and walked to the sidelines.

"Meng, congratulations, congratulations on leading the team to the finals." When he was still two meters away from Meng Xu, Jason Kidd took the initiative to speak, and after this round of duel, in Jason Kidd's heart, whether it was Meng Xu or the Pacers, they were all respectable opponents

"Thank you, Jason, you're a great opponent and hopefully next year, we'll meet in the divisional finals." Meng Xu obviously didn't expect Kidd to come to him, so after seeing Kidd coming over, Meng Xu was also a little flustered, and then Meng Xu immediately opened his arms, and after taking two steps forward, he hugged Jason Kidd, and Kidd's thoughts were the same, Meng Xu also admired and respected Kidd very much in his heart, throughout the series, no matter how depressed his teammates were, Kidd was always full of fighting spirit, and at the same time, he was constantly trying to arouse the fighting spirit and confidence of his teammates. Especially in the last game, when there are still 5 minutes left in the game, the Nets have fallen behind by more than 15 points, and the players on the court have basically lost their morale, but Jason Kidd still has not given up, still continues to work hard to attack, desperately defend, and constantly encourage teammates, such an opponent is worthy of respect no matter what.

"Next season, we'll be the winners." After hearing Meng Xu's words, Kidd patted Meng Xu's back heavily and said confidently.

"Jason, I'll be waiting for you." Meng Xu also slapped Kidd twice on the back, and the two separated.
