New York, the nation's largest city;

Los Angeles, the second largest city in the United States;

The specifications of the city are here, and it is destined that this will be a series full of public opinion.

Moreover......

The "Lakers OK" group met for the first time as opponents in the Finals;

The "Huaxia OK" combination competed in the finals;

Li Wan fought against his old master Lakers again in the finals;

What's more:

Li Wan and Kobe Bryant met again in the finals since 09 years!

Each of these gimmicks is full of topicality, and as long as you are a fan, you can't help but not discuss the story about this round of the series.

In fact, it's not just the fans who can't help it, David Stern of the NBA headquarters looked at the result and didn't know how many times he had laughed.

I have repeatedly confirmed with jokes about the promotion of this round of finals.

He can be sure that it will be the highest-rated round of the finals since '98.

More than the 09 finals are already a sure thing!

This kind of popularity represents the improvement of the ability to attract money for any business alliance......

Of course, as the president, his eyes naturally cannot only be on the first and second layers.

From an atmospheric perspective, this ability to absorb gold represents a few less likely to shut down the alliance after the collective bargaining agreement expires this summer.

If the huge broadcast contract given by ESPN has changed the probability of suspension this summer from 9 percent to 6 percent ~ 7 percent, then after this round of the series, the probability of suspension will be reduced by half to about 3 percent......

After all, no one will find some risk factors for the alliance when the alliance's ability to absorb money is improved, causing some investors to stop and watch.

There are only two words that the bosses want:

Make hay!

But if development and making money come together, they will definitely choose to develop first and don't miss the opportunity for development.

The consensus of the capitalists is about the same, except that don't put your eggs in the same basket, that is, leeks need to be raised!

When developing and growing, can the abandoned interests be called interests?

David Stern knows the pee nature of these bosses, so he's happy!

Because of this, his love for Li Wan and Kobe Bryant has risen again.

The meeting of these two guys in the finals is really more exciting than any script he racked his brains to think of......

It seems that the hard hand really can't come up with a reason!

It has to be a fight for yourself!

David Stern couldn't help but think of LeBron James, who broke his heart and put him on the spot last summer.

What are you doing, bring the first place in the bad league atmosphere!

LeBron James doesn't know that he is still being "remembered" by David Stern, otherwise he will definitely feel very aggrieved: No, even if I brought up the "huddle atmosphere", isn't it this atmosphere that led to the New York Knicks and Los Angeles Lakers meeting in the Finals?

It's my problem to co-author, and it's my problem to bring ratings to the league, so these two people can handle things, right?

This is also too bullying "king"!

On June 2, amid the buzz of the entire league, Kobe Bryant arrived in New York with the Lakers.

The final battle of the 10~11 season is about to start.

When Kobe Bryant was interviewed in the afternoon, when asked about his confidence in this round of the finals, his eyes showed contemplation.

He thought of June '06, when he was home watching Shaq O'Neal on TV as he battled for the Finals and won his fourth career championship......

He thought of June '09, when Li Wan shook him down and hit that killer shot to win the first championship trophy of his career......

This is not the first time he thinks of these two moments, every time he thinks of them, he always mutters in his heart:

If I could be given another chance, I would definitely win them all!

Now, he has really entered the finals again, and standing opposite is Li Wan and Shaq O'Neal!

From the current reports, it can be seen that Shaq O'Neill and Li Wan have become two names that cannot be avoided in his career. At his age and, most importantly, at Shaq O'Neal's age, this is likely to be his only chance in his life.

Recast the glory of the Lakers and defend the prestige of the "Mamba Snake", he Kobe Bryant......

As in duty bound!

Kobe Bryant secretly made up his mind.

But he was silent for a long time, and in the eyes of these reporters, it became a different meaning, and although they were surprised, several reporters wrote in their notebooks:

Bryant......

Cowardly!

They don't want to think so, but this New York Knicks is really too strong, and in their opinion, even Michael Jordan has to say twice, and one more: it must be us who wins.

Kobe Bryant is silent, it's too normal!

There are also some reporters who feel that Kobe Bryant is really old.

Because just now they were keenly aware that Kobe Bryant's expression was a little nostalgic.

A well-known thing, how can a "snake" be nostalgic?

Only the "old man" will be nostalgic!

As for why it's nostalgic, it's easy to explain......

I met Shaq O'Neill again, probably remembering the high spirits when we won the "three consecutive championships" together!

This is indeed not an achievement that ordinary people can achieve.

Of course, Bryant laughed when he saw these random speculation reports.

Well, that's good!

These people, he remembered!

Let's see, when the finals officially come, they will know whether the "Black Mamba" is "cowardly" or "scared"!

June 3.

The first series of the finals, which continues to be hotly discussed, has finally arrived.

Li Wan was interviewed before the game, and a reporter asked:

"This is the second time in your career that you've met your old boss Lakers in the Finals, Lee, do you have any special feelings?"

The reporter who asked the question immediately caused two different reactions: the New York reporter glanced at him very unhappily, you ask you about the horse! Los Angeles reporters hinted at anticipation.

Although the entire Los Angeles media is clamoring for "revenge".

But secretly, who doesn't want Li Wan to have expectations for their "predecessor"?

That's where New York reporters get upset.

Even if they are New York, they can't deny that the attraction of Los Angeles to a player is something they should all feel jealous of. Therefore, Li Wan's answer to this question is well understood.

More or less, there will still be so many billions of "nostalgia", right?

But even if he knew that Li Wan had such thoughts, as long as he didn't say it, New York could be regarded as not knowing. It can even be generously stated:

I raise the child!

Well......

This is the New York Knicks' "licking dog consciousness" for the "goddess"!

Li Wan is more "goddess" than a "goddess" for them.

Listening to their "goddess" talk about the "biological father of the child" at the moment, how can they keep a normal heart......

What if, on this issue, Li Wan finds out that he still likes Los Angeles and goes back to Los Angeles in the future, what should I do?

Damn it, wouldn't you ask questions?

I don't ask questions, will I eat?

The more they think about it, the more angry they become, they have already decided that if Li Wan really leaves New York because of Los Angeles in the future, they will definitely not let this reporter see the sun tomorrow!

No, you won't see tomorrow's fish belly white!

"There are special feelings, but it's not because of the ...... of Los Angeles"

It's just that Li Wan's simple answer made the eyes of these New York reporters "Zeng" light up, and at the same time looked at the reporter who asked the question, and his eyes were full of kindness and friendliness:

Good question, big reporter!

No wonder your company will let you come on a business trip!

If you don't come, who will?

Li Wan dropped Los Angeles.

Before the game even started, they had already received good news!

That's a good sign......

Didn't say anything, the New York Knicks won tonight!

Li Wan's "ruthless" answer also made the Los Angeles media more unanimously advocate "revenge".

The winds from the West Coast brought the smell of gunpowder to New York.

Amid the counterattack of the New York media, the game time is gradually approaching.

Madison Garden Plaza was already full of people at the moment, and countless Knicks diehards gathered here, some of them had tickets, some of them did not have tickets, and those who did not have tickets entered the arena and those who did not have tickets to send their cheers outside the arena.

In the audience seats, the management has asked the staff to put a new "finals version of the support suit" on each seat.

When all the fans changed into these "diehard clothes" in an orderly manner, the audience seats at the scene also became a "sea of white".

Da Yao came out of the tunnel of the home team's players and was also shocked when he saw this "white" piece.

Usually the Knicks' home atmosphere is already very strong, and tonight made him feel what is called "the love of the Big Apple"!

It's not too much to say that it's "love 105 degrees......

He couldn't help but think of the Rockets fans.

I couldn't help but mutter:

Fans are also different from fans!

If the fans of the Rockets regard themselves as their masters, then the fans of the New York Knicks really regard themselves as grandchildren!

That kind of frenetic atmosphere is really not comparable to Houston.

And at this moment, it makes Da Yao feel that the Rockets are also called fans? Isn't that just a few spectators!

Also stunned was the Lakers' Deron Williams.

As a kid who came out of Salt Lake City, he may not have seen much of the world in other aspects, but when it comes to fan fanaticism, he has always felt that he has a lot of say.

But at this moment, looking at the crazy appearance of New York fans, he suddenly felt that Salt Lake City, the "home of the devil", could only be regarded as "the regular season version of the devil's home field".

really said that "the devil's home", in the playoffs, he faced several away games, in fact, in terms of strength, is no worse than Salt Lake City.

And now, standing on the stage of the finals and looking at the "die-hard fans" of the New York Knicks in the audience, he thinks that "Salt Lake City" can also be called "Devil"?

Fukada's "little devil", right?

However, when Li Wan walked out of the home team's players' tunnel, Deron Williams' attention was immediately focused on Li Wan.

This little rookie ......

Although this is already Li Wan's contract year.

But Delong is still used to calling Li Wan that.

Because of his sentence "rookies can climb up much faster than you think", until now, Delong has been deeply impressed. Most importantly, he also proved that he was right with practical actions.

At present, when it comes to Li Wan in the league, he is already compared to the top few outside players in the league, and there is no Deron Williams among them.

In particular, after he had a conflict with Sloan and was traded by the Jazz, he has been in a period where he needs to prove himself, and no one compares him to Leewan.

Of course, that all changed with the grand final!

Now he has become the most critical weapon for the Lakers to complete their revenge in the eyes of the Los Angeles media!

His alignment with Li Wan will directly affect the outcome of this series......

Speaking of which, after the All-Star Weekend, the Los Angeles media were overjoyed when they heard that Kupchak had traded Deron Williams for a paltry price for Odom.

After playing a few regular season games, the Los Angeles media even thought that the current Lakers were "the original Paul Gasol and did not trade Li Wan"!

Deron Williams, who can attack with the ball on his own, and can also block and pass the ball, is like Li Wan in the No. 1 position at that time......

In the eyes of this group of media, this is the "complete body" of the Lakers, known as "even if the real Li Wan is traded, that's it......

Otherwise, they dare to shout at the 72-10 New York Knicks?

has already been slapped in the face once, and they don't have any capital, how can they dare to call the battle again!

However, it is also for this reason that Deron Williams is very unhappy.

Although this rookie is very good, he doesn't want to be this guy's "stand-in", in his opinion, as long as he is given a good enough lineup and enough ball possession, so that he can play a little selfishly, he can play more energetically than Li Wan.

Well......

If he wasn't so confident, how dare he kick at Jerry Sloan?

It's just that the Jazz's "dog eyes" can't see his ceiling, trade him, disrupt his plan, and he can only put away his "do whatever he wants" character, and then lurk for a while, codename: Zecheng!

Then, become!

It's just that he didn't expect that such a dormant spell would actually give him the opportunity to fight Li Wan in advance.

In the NBA, there is no bigger stage than the Finals!

He definitely wants to prove that he is not Li Wan's stand-in, because Li Wan is not as good as him at all!

He looked at Li Wan, and Kobe's eyes also noticed Li Wan for the first time.

Seeing him in the cheers of the audience, his face was light, Kobe Bryant couldn't help but muttered in his heart:

This person is really getting better at pretending!

He really can't wait to give this guy a little color!

In addition, the first thing that caught Kobe's attention was Shaq and Da Yao.

The former is a man he cares about for his entire career, and the latter is a man he longs for but never gets.

And these accounts were counted on Li Wan's head.

Pau Gasol looked at Kobe's gaze on the two No. 5 positions and "lingered", and secretly muttered in his heart:

It's broken, I'm a stand-in too!
