"I know you're nervous right now, and I've had the same experience as you.

The first time I played in the finals, I felt like I was in the zoo's animal section, surrounded by jackals, tigers and leopards.

I was so scared that I couldn't even walk, let alone play.

Fortunately, at that time, Coach Rudy Tomjanovic told me that there is not a single coward in our team!

Now I have this to say to you!

If there was a coward among us, he would have hid in the dressing room and would not have dared to walk out of the tunnel with us.

If he was a coward, he would have been nervous and timid as early as the playoffs!

We are a young team and we are not afraid to fail!

We're a great team and we've beaten one strong opponent after another in the playoffs.

This year is the first time we have come to the stage of the finals, and we are here to show our talent and fighting spirit!

We want to use our outstanding performance to let fans all over the world know us, and we must do our best to make fans all over the world recognize us! ”

Thunder head coach Scott Brooks cheered on the Thunder players on the sidelines before the game began.

As a member of the 94 Rockets' championship, Scott Brooks naturally learned a few points of the NBA's top chicken soup master, Rudy Tomjanovich's soup making skills.

The head coach who is usually able to lead the team to the finals, in addition to having two brushes in tactical adjustment, often has something in terms of solving the psychological problems of the players.

Scott Brooks is not like a Zen master who can lead players to meditate and relieve the tension and anxiety of players.

But he can also learn two tricks from Tang Shuai, and through verbal encouragement, he can add a buff to the players who are happy when they hear the battle.

Of course, Scott Brooks can't compare to Tang Shuai, but he is still better than Rivers of the same type, at least in terms of on-the-spot adaptation and lineup adjustment.

"KD, you have an unbeatable talent, you were born to make big scenes.

Get ready to enjoy the spotlight ahead! You will succeed on this stage, the brightest star!

Don't be afraid of your opponents, even if it's Doon who appears in front of you.

There's nothing to be afraid of, as long as you can win the game, people will only know that you have taught Doon a lesson in the finals!

The praise that originally haunted Doon will be transferred to you.

Burn your talent, burn your fighting spirit! Let fans all over the world realize how good you are! ”

"Russell, you're the least of my worries.

You can do it all on the field, you have endless stamina and the will to never give up.

Historically, you have been the only one who conquers your opponents, and no one has been able to defeat you.

You are the most reliable and tough part of the team, and your energy is the most important asset of the team.

I don't have anything to tell you anymore, that's all I can say now – be yourself and you'll be the best player!

I believe that now you have the answer in your heart!

Go for it, give it a go! You will definitely succeed! ”

As the saying goes, grinding guns in battle is not fast and light.

The Finals G1 is about to start, and Scott Brooks hurriedly added a layer of buff to Durant and Willis, hoping that they can play better tonight and help the Thunder get off to a good start in the Finals.

After motivating Durant and Westbrook, Scott Brooks added three other starters who were about to play.

Time flies, and the jumping ball session finally arrives.

Kendrick Perkins is still a little shorter after all, and the basketball was first touched by Milicic and hooked back to the Bulls' backcourt.

Bradley dribbled the ball across half court and then handed it to Doon at the top of the arc.

Prior to this, the Bulls' first offense was usually initiated by two guards.

But this is not the same as in the past, and the finals are definitely different.

Bradley and Evans haven't played in the Finals and must have been a bit constrained at first, but they will only be able to return to normal when Doon scores the ball and the team is in the lead.

It was also to create a tailwind situation for the rest of his teammates, and Doon got the ball early from the first quarter onwards.

Of course, the Thunder will definitely not turn a blind eye.

After Doon got the ball, Durant and Sapo Sofloza came up together.

Sapo Sofloza had been a second-defense defender for the first two years, and Durant's arm span was huge, which can greatly interfere with the shooting of outside players.

Coupled with the two-person package, it is extremely difficult to shoot, there is no space to break through, and it is easy to lose the dribble.

Normally, when other players are pinched at this level, they must play the ball as soon as possible and pass it to their teammates.

But Doon didn't.

I saw that when Sapo Sofrosa came up, Doon first made a bow to the Buddha, so that Sapo Sofrosa immediately stood still and stretched out his hand to prepare for blocking and shooting.

However, at this point, Doon, a Sam Gold, took the ball and drilled into the gap between Sapo Sofrosa and Durant.

Sapo Sofrosa was already planning to block, and at this time, Doon changed to break through, and Sapo Sofrosa naturally couldn't cooperate with Durant to shrink the defense.

And Durant's attention at the beginning was also on the ball, not on Doane as a person.

When Doon broke through with the ball and killed the basket, Durant hurriedly got stuck on Doon's breakthrough path, but Doon made a sudden stop and changed direction, and Durant could only immediately reach out and try to cut the ball.

Doon was prepared, took three steps to the basket with a high ball, and leaned on Durant in the process of breaking through to reduce his follow-up pursuit speed.

Durant didn't intercept Doon, nor did he cut the ball in Doon's hand, and was cleaned up by Doon's string of twos.

By the time Doon held the basketball high to the restricted area, the Thunder came over to help defend inside, but it was obviously too late.

The common people made a layup, and the two points were in hand.

“MVP，MVP，MVP！”

There was a cheer at the United Center.

Doon's breakthrough is not an exaggeration, and many outside players in the league today can do it.

It's just that tonight's competition stage is the annual finals!

Dune returned to the stage of the finals after three years, he was no stranger at all, he was not stage frightened at all, and he was extremely tough as soon as he came up, breaking through the basket with the ball, and penetrating the entire Thunder defense line with his own strength.

This season, the Thunder are sixth in the league in defensive efficiency, and among the major playoff teams, if not the first pot, they are relatively high.

Doon has a relatively good defense against the Thunder and can play so easily, which can't help but remind the Chicago fans on the scene of the four-in-a-row FMVP three years ago!

In the eyes of Bulls fans, what Doon can achieve this year is not only the regular season MVP, but also the Finals MVP!

The MVP of the Chicago Bulls is finally back!
