Chapter Ninety-Six: Wang Chao: The future is yours
Smith said this, and Barkley's face immediately turned a little green.
The terrible memories of more than a month ago came back to his mind, and even though the glass of purified and filtered water didn't taste anything, his stomach was churning uncontrollably.
"It has nothing to do with that, I think any player, especially a player who has been selected as an All-Star, must enter the NBA with the goal of becoming a top superstar and leaving his mark on the history of the league."
"If Wang Chao's ambition is only to be a spot shooter and a role player, then he is really good now, but if he is not satisfied with this and wants to get better, it is obviously not enough, he must do better."
"The reason why I am demanding of Wang Chao's performance is because the expectations are high for him, and he has the potential to become a top superstar in the league, but if you just settle for the status quo and score with the Suns' roster system and Nash's assistance, the future achievements will be nothing more than that."
Barkley's words are a typical concept of stealing, using a sentence I criticize you to make you better, to find a thorn in the bones of peace of mind.
As Smith said, as a player who has just joined the league for three seasons, Wang Chao's current performance is enough to kill most of the second-round picks in the history of the league, even compared with the rookies in the same period in the first round, he can definitely rank at the first-class level.
Even Kobe Bryant, in the third season of his career, averaged only 19.9 points and 5.3 rebounds per game, and his shooting rate of 46.5% was not as good as Wang Chaozhun.
So Smith scoffed at Barkley's excuse.
"So, Charles, do you mean, Wang Chao can't become a superstar in the league like this? Do you want to make another bet on this issue? β
"Of course, he can't be the top superstar in the league, I said! Hit it and ......"
Barkley's words were halfway through, and then he stopped abruptly, and his voice was quiet.
"Ahem......" he coughed twice, and then said, "I've quit gambling recently, and I won't play any kind of betting." β
"Cut." Smith glanced at Barkley with disdain. "Let's get back to the game."
β¦β¦
Wang Chao didn't know about the conversation between Barkley and Smith in the studio, and if he knew, he would be very sorry.
What's wrong with Barkley, quit gambling, is this still the same gambling Sir Charles?
If this bet is confirmed, maybe the system will assign another task to itself.
It's a shame that this benefit is missed.
At this time, Wang Chao's attention was all on the game, and the Suns' offensive rhythm was online, which also allowed him to get more opportunities on the outside.
It's hard for Bowen to keep up with him alone, and if the Spurs want to limit him, they must prepare a second player to cover him.
In the past, when the Suns' offensive rhythm was poor, the Spurs could recklessly send players to supplement the defense, but now they can't.
Once a player goes to make up for Wang Chao, then the vacant position will inevitably use a shot to tell them that the Sun is not the only shooter for Wang Chao.
Nash and Bell are both shooters with a three-point shooting rate of more than 40% in the regular season, and even Marion can shoot about 33% from three-point range.
If you dare to let it go, I will dare to vote you to death!
The spurs threw the mouse bogey, so naturally they didn't dare to arrange too many people to target Wang Chao.
This naturally gave him a lot of opportunities to play.
In the first half of the game, Wang Chao played about 16 minutes, an average of 8 minutes per quarter, and hit 4 of 9 shots from beyond the three-point line to score 12 points.
Although the scoring is not very high, it is really providing a consistent scoring output for the team.
As the game entered the third quarter of the second half, Wang Chao's running distance increased, activating the second layer of long-distance runners' characteristics, and his offensive ability began to further improve.
Bowen began to struggle to keep up with Wang's 5% increase in running speed, causing Wang Chao to score nine points on three of six shots from beyond the three-point line in the third quarter.
At the end of the third quarter, Wang Chao's personal score had reached 21 points, with 7 of 15 three-point shots and a three-point shooting rate of 46.6%.
He wasn't the Suns' top scorer yet.
After experiencing the situation that Duncan had been suppressed in the first two games, Stoudemire finally rose up in the crucial fifth stop, facing Duncan's defensive frequent ball-holding and strong offense, faintly having the shadow of Duncan averaging 37 points per game in the 04-05 season, shooting 13 of 20 in the third quarter, 3 of 5 free throws, and getting 29 points and 8 rebounds.
With the play of Wang Chao and Stoudemire, the first and second scorers in the regular season, the Suns led the Spurs by 12 points at 84-72 in the third quarter.
In the last quarter of the game, the Spurs, who were unwilling to lose the key battle of Tianwang Mountain, also tried to launch a counterattack, but they were obviously powerless.
The score of the two teams in the fourth quarter was 32:27, and the Spurs once chased the difference to only 3 points, but at the critical moment, Wang Chao got a completely empty opportunity through a reverse run, so as to hit a fatal three-point to seal the victory.
"Squeakββ!
When the whistle blew at the end of the game, the Suns players all hugged each other excitedly.
111οΌ104γ
In this battle of Tianwang Mountain, which may directly determine the outcome of the series, the Suns won the game with a better performance at home.
In the whole game, the most eye-catching performance was undoubtedly Stoudemire, who scored 35 points and 11 rebounds, and he became the strongest weapon for the Suns to attack the game with a strong outbreak.
But even Stoudemire can't hide the shine of Wang Chao's game.
Wang Chao, who shot 8-of-16 from the field and 3-of-4 from the free-throw line, and scored 27 points and 5 rebounds in the game, contributed no worse than Stoudemire, and a last-minute three-pointer directly laid the foundation for the team.
Wang Chao and Stoudemire alone combined to score 62 points, plus the play of other Suns players, if they can still lose the game, then the Spurs are really strong enough to foul.
Obviously, the Spurs were not that strong, so the Suns won the crucial battle, with a total score of 3:2, and took the lead in getting the match point.
"It's not over yet, but when we get back at home, we'll win the game and win the tie-break and qualify for the finals."
After losing the battle of Tianwang Mountain, in an interview with reporters, Spurs head coach Popovich said.
Both he and the rest of the Spurs team know that in the next game, they have no way back, only to win the game or lose and be eliminated from the competition.
The game has entered the most intense stage, and neither side wants to lose the game, because in everyone's consensus, it is the same, as long as you can win the Western Conference Finals, it is equivalent to winning the championship, and neither the Pistons nor the Cavaliers in the East have anything to worry about.
Popovich did what he said, two days later in the sixth game of the series, the Spurs who fell behind 2:3 showed an extremely tenacious will to fight, and at the halfway point of the game, they once fell behind by more than 15 points, but they continued to fight solid offense and defense, and caught up with the difference little by little, and finally won 99:98, 1 point, and tied the total score to 3:3.
The Battle of the Seven is coming!
β¦β¦
A series of matchups in the Western Conference are enough to feast the eyes of all NBA fans, the strongest spear in the league vs the strongest shield, both teams have shown a very high level of competition, and the game is difficult to solve and once fought to the tiebreaker.
Although this is only the Western Conference Finals, not the Finals, the vast majority of fans generally believe that the level of the Western Finals this season is even higher and more exciting than the finals in past years.
The Western Conference finals are in front of Yuzhu, which has caused a lot of attention in the east to be much lower, and the Cavaliers have eliminated the Pistons 4:2 and successfully entered the finals. James reached the Finals for the first time in his career, but was completely overshadowed by the Western Conference Finals matchup, and no one even thought that the Cavaliers and the two teams in the Western Conference Finals would have any power to fight.
This is indeed true, but it makes James feel very dissatisfied.
"I'm ready for my first career championship, and no matter who comes out of the West, the Suns or the Spurs, I'm going to lead the Cavaliers to win the game and lift the O'Brien Cup."
James was extraordinarily confident in media interviews, as if victory was within reach.
It's just that at this time, neither the Suns nor the Spurs have the heart to think about James and his Cavaliers.
On June 2nd, the seventh game of the Western Finals series, the tie-break battle began!
In the first three quarters of the game, the scores of the two teams were very close, and the difference in points did not exceed 3 points at the maximum.
The Suns are still blooming more, Stoudemire, Wang Chao, Nash and others have played well, and they have frequently scored successfully on the offensive end.
The Spurs, on the other hand, are playing entirely around Duncan.
In this tie-break that directly determines whether to win or lose, Duncan has no reservations, and shows his strongest state as soon as he gets on the court.
On the offensive end, he seems to be incarnated as O'Neal, frequently asking for the ball in the low post.
In the first half alone, he shot 8-of-15 from the field and 2-of-4 from the free-throw line to finish with 18 points and eight rebounds, including four frontcourt rebounds.
It's just that Duncan's explosive performance didn't help the Spurs quickly establish a score advantage in the game.
The first three quarters of the game were tied to 77-76, with the Spurs leading by only one point.
And as the game entered the fourth quarter, the situation began to change dramatically.
Stoudemire and Wang Chao started working almost at the same time, one shooting 6-of-8 and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line to finish with 14 points and four rebounds, while the other shot 4-of-7 from beyond the three-point line and scored 12 points from three-pointers alone.
Under the leadership of the two, the Suns scored 39 points in a single quarter in the fourth quarter.
On the other hand, on the Spurs' side, although Duncan was not to be outdone, scoring 14 points on 5-of-9 shooting and 4-of-5 free throws, the scoring efficiency of other teammates was inferior to that of the Suns, and the Spurs scored 33 points in a single quarter.
Duncan scored 42 points, 19 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 blocks in the game, but still couldn't save the defeat, and the Spurs finally lost to the Suns 110-115, losing in the tie-break and being eliminated.
"Congratulations to the Suns for beating the Spurs 4-3 and winning this pinnacle matchup, and they will advance to the Finals to compete with the Cleveland Cavaliers who broke through in the East for the final championship!"
"Duncan's super stats can't get back to the sky, he's a better player, but the Suns are the better team, and the Spurs missed out on a fourth championship."
"The Finals matchup prediction, the Suns win the championship with a support rate of 91%, and the Cavaliers only 9%, will this be a Finals with unequal strength and no suspense?"
It can only be said that the media and fans understand basketball, and they don't need to say it explicitly, everyone knows it, but if the winner is determined by the Fanxi Duel, then basically this year's championship will be decided.
Aside from James' fans, no one thinks this Cavaliers team has what it takes to compete with either team between the Suns and Spurs.
After all, the Cavaliers' lineup is really very thin, except for James, the only one who can handle it in the team is Larry. Hughes and Big Z, neither of whom are at the star level, can provide extremely limited support to James.
Wang Chao, as a traverser, knows this best.
In the original history, the Cavaliers and the Spurs met in the finals, and then were swept out of the game 4:0, James was strictly defended by the Spurs in four games, in this case, James should have passed the ball to other teammates who were relaxed in the vacant state to score, but the Cavaliers had no one to help him at all, so he could only bite the bullet himself, and in the face of the Spurs' high-pressure package defense, James averaged 22.5 shots per game in four games and only hit 8 shots, with a shooting rate of 35.6%, He had only 22 points, 7 rebounds and 6.8 assists.
The performance in this Finals can be regarded as the second-to-last performance in James' Finals career, and as for the penultimate one, it is naturally the Finals against the Dallas Mavericks in the first year after the Heat Big Three formed a team......
The Cavaliers are no match for the Spurs, and naturally they can't be the Suns opponent who eliminated the Spurs.
In fact, if it weren't for their opponent in the East, the Pistons roster structure is a bit deformed right now, and there is no defensive end of the Pose. Wallace's existence, the defensive ability that he relied on to survive has been greatly reduced, and the offense has not improved as always, and it is difficult for the Cavaliers to get past the Pistons, let alone reach the Finals.
The disparity in overall strength made the finals completely a massacre from the beginning.
On June 7, the first game of the 2006-07 NBA Finals season officially began.
The Suns announced the beginning of the Finals with a hearty victory on their home court, and basically announced the end of the suspense of the Finals.
At 114:87, the Suns beat the Cavaliers by 27 points, and in the third quarter of the game, the difference once reached more than 30 points, forcing the Cavaliers to surrender early and replace the full bench lineup.
Unlike the Spurs, the Cavaliers can't do any restrictive role on the defensive end when facing the Suns, and the offensive end relies heavily on James' style of play, which is also targeted by the Suns.
The Suns, like the Spurs, also used a trap tactic against James, with Marion and Bale, the two most defensive players on the team, staring at James for almost the entire game, as long as he had the ball, he immediately stepped forward to trap him.
As for James' pass to the vacant Cavaliers players, you can pass it if you want, if they can score, that's their ability, anyway, even if it is a light ratio, the Suns are not afraid of the Cavaliers at all.
How do you describe this kind of game?
Wang Chao's own feeling is that after experiencing the peak battle with the Spurs, facing the opponent's almost suffocating defense, he suddenly faced the Cavaliers, and the plummeting defensive intensity even made him a little uncomfortable.
The difference in levels is too great.
In this game, James was the brightest boy on the court, even in the face of Marion and Bell, he still shot 14 of 23 and 6 of 9 free throws, got 34 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists, and his personal data was impeccable.
The only problem is that the Cavaliers have only Big Z with 16 points and 10 rebounds other than him. Gooden had 14 points and four rebounds, and none of the others scored in double figures.
On the other hand, on the Suns' side, Wang Chao, Stoudemire, and Nash all clocked out in advance of the third quarter of the game, and all three of them still scored 20+ points without going all out.
Whether it's Stoudemire on the inside, or Wang Chao and Nash on the outside, the defensive pressure is too small to affect their scoring.
The big loss in the first game of the finals did not let Cavaliers head coach Mike . Brown was soft-mouthed, and in the post-game press conference, he still vowed that the Cavaliers, who did not play well in the first game, would quickly find their game and launch a comeback in the next game to win the defeat.
But such a slogan is what he and die-hard fans of the Cavaliers are willing to believe.
June 10, the second game of the finals.
The Suns won the game again 103-92 and took a 2-0 lead.
Although the difference in this game is not as huge as in G1, it seems that the Cavaliers can still compete with the Suns a little bit, but in fact, the difference is not particularly big.
From the very beginning of the game, the Suns took advantage of their fast-paced and efficient scoring to take the initiative, and never went under 5 points during the game.
In the fourth quarter of the game, the Cavaliers, under the leadership of James, did set off a wave of fierce counterattacks, James personally shot 4 of 7 in the fourth quarter and made 2 of 2 free throws to cut 10 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, and 30 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists in the game.
But just like in the first game, no matter how good James is, he is still alone, and the Cavaliers simply don't have players who can help him enough.
In addition to James's 30 points, there are still only two players who score in double figures, and it is still Gooden and Big Z......
When the game ended, James was speechless and glanced at his teammates, and there was a sentence in his heart that MMP didn't know whether to say it or not.
Look at the opposite Suns, all 5 players in the team scored double-doubles, from the starting lineup to Barbossa on the bench, they all have the ability to score alone, and then look at their own side, the only guard who can count on Larry who can attack with the ball independently. Hughes, who only scored 2 points on 1-of-5 shooting in the last game, was even more strained in this game, scoring a point on 0-of-5 shooting, sending 2 assists and 2 turnovers, perfectly erasing all performances.
If he was facing a top outside defender like Kidd, he would be playing against the league's famous defenselessness! Even Nash can defend him like this, which shows how bad he is.
James looked at his teammates and turned his gaze to the Suns.
In this game, the Suns' highest score in the whole game was Wang Chao, who shot 10 of 20 and 7 of 14 three-pointers, and scored 27 points and 4 rebounds.
Although he is the same small forward as James, because James needs to be responsible for the offense in the game, he has no energy or the physical strength to run crazy with Wang Chao.
Therefore, the task of defending Wang Chao was given to the 2.03-meter striker Alexander. Pavlovich.
As a result, Pavlovic couldn't prevent Wang Chao at all, and was dizzy by Wang Chao's off-ball running, and couldn't find North at all.
"Damn...... If I had such a helper, I wouldn't be so passive in the game! β
James thought to himself with some resentment.
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, his expression paused, and when he looked at Wang Chao again, he suddenly became eager.
"Wang Chao's contract seems to expire this summer, right? With the ability he's shown so far, the Suns will need a big contract to keep him, and maybe ...... if the Suns don't want to."
In James's view, Wang Chao is a player who perfectly fits his style of play, with his ultimate ability to break through with the ball, he can easily get into the basket, Wang Chao doesn't even need to do anything, just stand outside the three-point line to help him pull space, you can let the pressure you face on the offensive end plummet, so as to play better!
At this moment, James has made up his mind in his heart that no matter what the final outcome of the finals goes, he must put pressure on the management and ask the team to grab Wang Chao at all costs!
At this time, Wang Chao was walking towards the player's tunnel, and suddenly couldn't help but shiver, and couldn't help but look around in confusion.
"I wiped off my sweat when I was on the bench just now, why is it so cold all of a sudden? Is the air conditioning on the pitch too big? β
Shaking his head, Wang Chao continued to walk towards the locker room, but he didn't know that James had already set his sights on him.
But in fact, even if Wang Chao knew, he would not be interested.
As the chosen one, James needs the most is a top-level 3D player, the kind of player who can not only defend but also provide a stable three-point range, not to grab the ball from him, nor to affect his data, and at the last moment he can dribble the ball for half a day and then throw it to the opponent and shoot directly......
There's no doubt that James is really powerful, and throughout NBA history, there are very few players who have been as proficient as James in almost everything.
But James's strength has also become an obstacle to his teammates.
As the saying goes, a star that is too bright will overshadow the light of other stars around it.
Any star who plays with James will be affected, and this is unavoidable.
Wang Chao's current coffee position is not big enough, but he doesn't want James to act as a horse boy for a fixed-point fort.
If he goes to the Cavaliers, there is a chance that nine times out of ten...... No, he will definitely become a pure shooter who stands in the bottom corner all year round, helps James pull the space, and shoots in the final seconds.
It's better for him to continue to play on the bench with the Suns, at least he can have enough balls, play beautiful statistics and compete for the championship.
Besides, take 10,000 steps back.
As a lucky player who traveled back from the future and also received a gift from the system, Wang Chao, who is positioned as a small forward, how can he be willing to play with the future representative of the same position?
Once the success is complete, any top star in the league will climb to the throne by stepping on the body of other stars.
James is the target he wants to surpass and beat, and from this point alone, Wang Chao doesn't want to play with James.
So...... This is just James's own wishful thinking.
β¦β¦
The series is 2-0, but Cavaliers fans are still naΓ―ve and fantasical.
"It's okay, it's normal for the Suns to lose home games, and when the Western Conference finals, didn't the Spurs also lose two away games in a row at the beginning of the game and were 2:0 by the Suns? The Spurs, who returned to their home court, immediately won two games in a row to tie the score to 2:2, and we have LeBron, who will definitely be able to reverse the game! β
Cleveland fans poured into the Cavaliers' home arena in Cleveland.
This is the first time in the history of the Cavaliers that they have reached the Finals, and it is enough to make the Cavaliers fans enthusiastically flock to the stadium and fill the entire arena.
However, the Cavaliers fans, who were full of joy and excitement, expecting their team to be able to make a comeback at home, and blow the horn of counterattack with a hearty victory, witnessed another slaughter on their home court.
Two hours later, the Cavaliers' home court was silent, and all the fans were stunned to look at the score on the scorer, completely speechless.
101:75γ
The scorching score was like a satire on the Cavaliers fans.
A hearty victory? Blow the horn of a counterattack? That's it?
Back at their home court, instead of performing better, the Cavaliers even pulled their hips together.
In this game, James did not return to the courage of the first two games, shooting 9 of 23 from the field, shooting only 39%, relying on 7 of 8 free throws to get 25 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, and the turnover was as high as 5.
Even James has pulled his hips, can he expect the rest of the Cavaliers players to play well?
Alexander. Pavlovich, Drew. Although Gooden and Big Z Goskas both scored in double figures, none of them shot more than 45 percent.
75 points per game is not the lowest score of the Cavaliers in this playoffs, in the first few rounds, the Cavaliers even had 72 points, but that was against the slow-paced and excellent defensive Pistons, when the Pistons also only scored more than 70 points.
The problem is that the Suns are different, this is a run-and-bomb team, the offensive rhythm is the first in the league, and the Suns, driven by the fast pace of the opponent, few teams will score less than 90 points.
But today's Cavaliers did it, and they were defended by a run-and-gun team that wasn't good at defense, and they scored only 75 points in the game.
It's even more desperate than the aggregate score being 3-0.
After the game, Cavaliers head coach Mike Murphy. Brown couldn't say anything more, and when the reporter asked the reporter at the press conference whether he had the confidence to lead the team to a comeback, Brown couldn't help but look at the other party and asked, "What do you think?" β
In fact, as a head coach, Mike. Brown shouldn't be so negative, after all, the game is not over yet, and if even he is like this, how can his players still have the desire to win?
But that's Mike. Brown, the man who will be stared at by Kobe Bryant's death in the future, just because of good luck, as soon as he debuted in his coaching career, he met James with his own system, he doesn't need to know any tactics on the court, just give the ball to James, and then let the other party think of a way to finish it...... No, this line is Thai. Lunlu's.
As for James, he said in an interview: "We're not going to let defeat happen in Cleveland, the next game, we have to win!" β
Although James basically thinks that the probability of the Cavaliers coming back to win the championship is slim, at least he is tougher than Brown.
You can win the championship, but don't try to sweep us or lift the championship trophy in Cleveland!
It's just that...... It's really not James' final say.
The championship is close at hand, and the Suns are all excited.
This is the NBA championship they have always dreamed of!
Ever since the Suns signed Nash to storm Phoenix, a championship has been a goal they've been aiming for.
In the 04-05 season, they lost 1:4 to the Spurs, who defeated the Pistons in the finals to win the championship.
In the 05-06 season, the Suns counterattacked all the way to the Finals, but because Stoudemire was absent due to injury, they were defeated by the Heat of Wade and O'Neal's combination, and missed the championship.
This season, Stoudemire returned from injury, the Suns made a comeback, after 21 consecutive wins in the regular season, 68-14, and the playoffs eliminated Jazz Spurs and other fierce rivals one after another, they are only left with this last game win from the championship, at this moment, they can't wait at all!
On June 14, 2007, Game 4 of the Finals was still Cleveland's home stadium.
The Cavaliers, who were unwilling to be swept away, showed extremely amazing combat effectiveness, James was in hot shape, scoring 22 points alone in the first half and another 25 points in the second half, with 47 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists, and a shooting rate of 64%, invincible.
But even James, who turned on Berserk mode, still couldn't help the Cavaliers win this battle of dignity.
On the Suns' side, all five players scored in double figures, Stoudemire with 26 points, Wang Chao with 21 points, Nash with 20 points, Marion with 17 points and Barbossa with 15 points.
In this game, there was finally some of the intensity that the finals should have, and Director Zhang, the commentator of CCTV Sports, sighed.
"In ancient times, there were three heroes in the Tiger Prison and Lu Bu, and now there is James with one enemy and five! It's a pity that individual martial arts are still not enough to win in a 5v5 team game, even if it is as strong as the basketball god Jordan, he also got Scotty. Pippen only started the road to godhood after that, and I don't know when James' Pippen will appear. β
After sighing, Director Zhang became excited again.
"Win the championship! The Suns defeated the Cavaliers 4-0 to win the NBA championship, and Wang Chao won the championship! He became the second player in the history of Huaguo to win the NBA championship, and he was also the first Huaguo player to win the championship as the team's starter and main core! From now on, we will also have players who have won the NBA championship! β
As many people know, Chinese player Battle won a championship ring with the Spurs in the 02-03 season.
But the gold content of Battle's championship ring, everyone also knows it, that season Battle played a total of 12 games for the Spurs, playing an average of 3.8 minutes per game, contributing 0.8 points and 0.8 rebounds, and all of them played in the regular season, did not play a single playoff game, and the finals were standing on the bench to cheer for his teammates.
This championship has nothing to do with him, it can be said that it has nothing to do with half a dime, it is completely lucky.
Wang Chao: This is completely different.
During the playoffs, the Suns went from the first round to the finals, all the way through, Wang Chao is the most important scoring point in the team, averaging 21.8 points and 3.7 rebounds per game, and the team's performance is second only to Stoudemire, who averages 24.1 points and 12 rebounds per game, and is the absolute main core!
Wang Chao has contributed a lot to the championship of the Suns, and his contribution can definitely rank in the top three of the team.
"It's a pity that the finals FMVP is estimated to have nothing to do with Wang Chao."
Yu Gui shook his head on the side, quite regretful.
This can't be helped, Wang Chao is not the core player of the Suns after all, and the FMVP of the Finals, whether it is Stoudemire who averaged 25 points and 11 rebounds per game during the Finals, or Nash, who averaged 15.7 points and 13.2 assists per game, cannot be given to him.
It's just a sigh of joy.
Regardless of whether there is FMVP or not, the honor of winning the championship exists, in the NBA, there is a huge gap between the players who have won the championship and the players who have not won the championship, especially for those top superstars in the league, having a championship, even if it is just one, is a qualitative improvement for its historical status.
Future Garnett, Nowitzki, and others are typical examples.
At this time, the Suns players were all hugging each other and cheering loudly, although this was an away game, not many Suns fans cheered and applauded them.
After Wang Chao hugged and celebrated with Nash, Stoudemire and others, he suddenly remembered something and looked to the other side.
James stood on the sidelines, looking at the cheering Suns players with no expression on his face.
Wang Chao thought about it, took the initiative to walk over, and patted James on the shoulder.
"Congratulations, King, you deserve this championship."
James barely showed a smile on his face and said to Wang Chao, who took the initiative to show favor to him.
Although I was very disappointed in my heart, this result was actually doomed when the score was 3:0, so it was not so difficult to accept.
Moreover, this is only the fourth year of James' career, and he sees plenty of opportunities in his future to return to the stage and win his championship.
Therefore, he can calmly send congratulations and blessings to Wang Chao, after all, he still has the idea of recruiting Wang Chao at this time.
"Well, the future is yours." Wang Chao hugged James and whispered to him.
James: "??? β
