Chapter 54: [The Finals Are Coming]

The New York Knicks fireworks lit up the Cleveland sky, and many Cavaliers fans and James fans lost their way home in their eyes.

4:0 Sweep!

This was not only a shocking shame for them, but also deeply shaken their faith.

Can LeBron James, who they think is the hope for the future, really be useful? Can they really win their first championship in history under James?

LeBron James is really good, and picking him with the top pick is definitely not a bad option. He brought unprecedented exposure to the small city of Cleveland, and he brought the Cavaliers back to the Eastern Conference Finals, and his quality is among the best in NBA history, and he can reach the top of all the championships.

But they could have had better.

They used to have Suhi.

Since Suhi entered the NBA, he has led the team to the Finals for three consecutive seasons.

If Suhee hadn't been traded, would he have been able to lead the Cavaliers to a miracle?

After all, when he was with the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers also had a strong record and stayed in the top half of the league. On top of that, the knights' departure was convinced of him, and Tony Barty is still following him.

It's a pity that now, everything is gone, the glory belongs to New York, the glory belongs to the Knicks, and the glory belongs to Suhi.

No matter what the media will report next, but, in the hearts of Cavaliers fans, they already know very well that after this fiasco of LeBron James, he is no longer worthy of being compared with Suss, Suhi has already taken the ticket to challenge Jordan, who else can wrestle with him in the current team?

Bryant?

Maybe.

Duncan?

Maybe.

But there must not be James's name.

James rushed to the peak of his career this season, but now he has slipped to the lowest point of his career. Suhey locked his ceiling.

"It's a good feeling to be back in the championship again."

Suhi was interviewed by the courtside media, and he told fans across the United States: "I'm expecting the Dallas Mavericks to make it to the Finals right now. They are indeed stronger than Spurs and more difficult to deal with. Moreover, I have already beaten the Spurs once, and beating them again will not add a new sense of conquest to me. ”

"Mark Cuban is a good boss, he recruited me, he drove me very well, he promised me a lot of things. He also said that as long as I was with Nowitzki, I could beat the whole league. ”

"Now, he's proven what the Mavericks are capable of. But do you know how I rejected them? I said, what you said is very good, but I don't choose you because you are too strong. ”

"I chose the Knicks because the Knicks were weak enough. I'm a person who loves challenges, so what's the point of winning the championship with a strong team? ”

"Now, I'm taking the Knicks to the Finals and sweeping them all the way."

"I've proven myself, too."

Suxi proudly told the media.

But no one thinks he stinks.

In professional sports, the strong get all respect.

What Sushi is showing now is not only strong, but also extraordinarily strong.

You can't disrespect him, you can't help but look up to him.

Even if the Spurs will be unhappy when they hear Suxi's words, they can only be secretly unhappy, do they dare to grin their teeth?

Popovich is known as a famous coach, does he dare to challenge Susie's remarks head-on?

He didn't dare!

He certainly wouldn't dare.

So, Isaiah Thomas then said: "We don't have a full squad now, and we will lose help from Zach and Eddie in the first two games of the Finals, but do you dare to despise us for this? ”

"Do you want to put up $100 to bet, I'm betting we'll win two in a row at home!"

Isaiah Thomas is confident, he is like a greedy gambler.

But his remarks were quickly targeted.

Michael Jordan said while playing golf that I don't think the Knicks can win two straight home games in the Finals, and I'm willing to bet $1 million with any.

Jordan is rich.

He wanted to use money to suppress his old rivals.

Moreover, neither the Dallas Mavericks nor the Spurs are Cavaliers, and the Knicks are missing two interior lines, making it extremely unlikely to win.

So, he thinks that no one dares to bet with him.

Who knows, Isaiah Thomas has been waiting for Jordan to come down.

He has been in Jordan's story for too long.

He wants to rise, he wants to finish his narrative, he wants to win a war.

So, he typed a check for $1 million on the spot. He told reporters: "If we don't win two in a row at home, this million dollars will be donated to the China Welfare Foundation to improve the construction of basketball courts in rural schools in China." ”

Isaiah Thomas's words went straight to Jordan.

Moreover, Thomas also said, "If we win and someone doesn't live up to their wild words." I will also donate $1 million to a welfare foundation in China, in the name of Su Xi, the god of basketball. ”

These two sentences exploded directly.

Equivalent to riding face output.

Not only did Jordan stand up, but the pattern also hung him up and beaten.

Almost all of Jordan's retreats were blocked.

As long as the Knicks won two home games, Jordan had to donate, and if he did, he had to lose face.

He originally wanted to pretend to be forced to run, but now he has to eat rice if he can't pretend to be forced.

I have to say that Isaiah Thomas has recently read Sun Tzu's Art of War and Thick Black Studies very clearly, and this hand directly made Jordan lose his way out.

Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks' Mark Cuban also responded to Suhi.

"Congratulations to Suhi Goats for winning the Eastern Conference, he's always been the best NBA player in me, he's beaten O'Neal and Duncan, he's a superstar of his time," he said in an interview. ”

"What he said was true. I did recruit him, and he did turn me down on the grounds that the Mavericks were too strong. At the time I thought that reason was a bit ridiculous, until now I see the Knicks become the first in the league under his leadership, becoming the champion of the East. ”

"However, I don't think he will have the last laugh. This year's championship will be the Mavericks. ”

"As he said, we're going to beat Spurs. Then, we'll take advantage of their inside weakness and eat them. ”

"We're not going to make them fully formed."

Mark Cuban said.

He was sincere.

Even, he said: "As long as the Dallas Mavericks win the championship, I personally and the Dallas Mavericks will donate $1 million to the China Welfare Foundation to renovate the basketball facilities of rural schools in China." ”

In this wave, Mark Cuban's pattern is full.

The Mavericks have always had a good relationship with Chinese players, and they have extended olive branches to many Chinese players.

Now, Cuban is joining the gamble and is not hesitant to make Jordan even harder.

And on the other side of the ocean, China has won.

They never imagined that the finals would turn into a donation competition.

Isaiah Thomas got off to a good start, and then they all responded.

$1 million, that's not a small amount.

How many rural schools will get a brand new basketball court and a brand new basketball hoop as a result?




Although the Spurs are humiliated, their fans say on the Internet that Suhi is arrogant and that the Spurs must have made him look good if they reached the Finals.

But they lost the Western Conference Finals.

They held out until Game 6 and then were blasted out by Nowitzki, who undoubtedly reached the peak of his career, scoring 52 points in this game.

The resilience and toughness he showed in this match made him dare not call him a softass.

In fact, the guy who likes to call Nowitzki softass doesn't seem to be hard either.

Nowitzki's stats were highly appreciated by Suhi, who was the first to support Nowitzki: "Without a doubt, he is the third most powerful forward in the league today. Second only to Randolph, Duncan. ”

Suhi said this, of course, to elevate Randolph, who was his teammate.

But the one who was hurt the most was Garnett.

Garnett has always been known as a momentary yoga with Duncan.

However, Duncan has honors, and what does Garnett, who has been in the Advanced League for two years, have?

Now, he's certainly no match for Nowitzki.

Nowitzki led the team to the finals.

Suhi's praise made the series less gunpowdery, even though everyone was chasing the championship strongly.

For Dallas and Nowitzki, they need this championship to break zero, and they need this championship to complete their all-time status.

And for the Knicks and Suhee.

The Knicks have been sinking for so many years, and they need a championship to tell the world that they've done ZTE.

Meanwhile, for Suhi, the championship meant he officially got his ticket to fire at Jordan.

He officially got his ticket to challenge the god of basketball.

Jordan is the most nervous person right now.

Because he has already received the news that Nike is going to build a new factory for Suhi, and will give Suxi eight percent of the dividend, more than his five percent.

Moreover, his brand has begun to be impacted by Suhi, if Suxi really rises strongly. Well, he will lose not only the title of the god of basketball, but also a steady stream of income ... Revenues are definitely falling.

And after reaching a certain point, there will be a crash.

Nike was nervous enough to cry after Suhey swept the Cavaliers.

Because once Sushi wins the championship, once he is the MVP of the finals.

Then it's over, and they're doing it for nothing for another year.

This kind of continuous accumulation of rewards will destroy their cash flow.




The finals came as scheduled.

At Madison Garden, tickets have become proof of the entire New York high society.

James Dolan is not a fortune boy, after he got the ticket to the finals, he directly raised the ticket price of the finals to the first level in history. If you make it to Madison Garden in the finals, you'll have to pay $2,000 to get a ticket to the top of the mountain.

That's the price in 2006.

In the hands of scalpers, it turned to $5,000.

New Yorkers just have money.

On weekdays, you might be the elite of Wall Street, but now, you have to stay at the top of the hill to watch the game.

As for the position in front, it is even more sky-high.

The position in the front row is not even available with money, it depends on what kind of identity you are.

Some media have calculated that James Dolan will earn back 50% more income from the Lakers' three Finals trips with this trip to the Finals.

That's the strength of old-money.

Los Angeles is thriving, but New York is the world's largest metropolis.

There is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger here, and the rich people have a lot of buckets.

Backbite!

The whistle blew.

The game begins.

These wealthy middle-class New York City middle-class plutocrats began to shout at the top of their lungs, shouting the pride of the city: the exclusive name of Suhi the Goat.

MVP

MVP!

MVP!

The sound is amazing.

Zach Randolph and Eddie Curry sat on the sidelines in suits, envious of their teammates who could play.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have beaten that bastard at Moning."

"I knew I had endured O'Neill's provocation."

"It's so beautiful. It's too good to miss the home court of the finals for that kind of garbage. ”

"Tony Barty and Jerome should give us a moral damages fee."

Syllable!

The two of them talked.

Jerome jumps to win over Eric Dampier, the second center in the West.

The Mavericks' lineup at this time is: Dampier, Nowitzki, Josh Howard, Starkhouse, Jason Terry.

The Mavericks have a strong lineup, to defend and defend, to attack and attack.

Most importantly, it's a real jump shot team.

Junior General Johnson has let their chemistry unleash to its fullest.

After the training of the western monster room, their current tactical run-in has reached the extreme.

Cleveland is by no means able to touch porcelain.

If the Knicks are counting on taking out Dallas with the same set that they did to kill the Cavaliers, it is absolutely a fool's dream.

Now basketball experts dare not assert that the background has been smoked too much. But what they meant was that the Mavericks had a better chance of winning.

After all, they thought the Mavericks would take at least one victory.

Larry Brown said in the commentary seat: I think the China Welfare Foundation will get $4 million.

Because the Mavericks won the championship, the Mavericks Club and Mark Cuban will donate $2 million.

Isaiah Thomas will donate $1 million regardless of whether she wins or loses.

Michael Jordan will also donate. Because I think the Knicks still have a chance to win one of the two home courts.

Anyway, China's rural schoolchildren won.

Larry Brown had a rare moment of humor.

Reggie Miller was on the side to introduce the Knicks' starting lineup.

Hardaway, Suhey, Jalen Rose, Tony Barty, Jerome James.

If this lineup was a year ago, let people say... They were able to reach the Finals and sweep the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals. Anyone who knows a little bit about basketball will say you're crazy.

After all, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are all alive.

But now, they've done just that.

Hardaway holds the ball steadily.

Although Hardaway has lost his spirituality and physical talent, he is already a very qualified point guard, and he is still a tall point guard.

Next year, after his contract expires, there will still be teams offering contracts.

He's proven to be in the league.

Hardaway dribbled across half court and passed the basketball to Jalen Rose.

Jalen came out of the ban and was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and he was against Stackhouse.

A player of his generation.

The style of play is also relatively similar.
