Chapter 609 Ceremony(1/2)
In the NBA 2012-13 season, the Raptors led the Thunder 3-0 in the finals.
In the fourth game of the finals, in the last minute, the two sides had a 30-point difference.
As long as the last minute is completed, the Raptors will be able to win the cup smoothly and become the fourth dynasty team to create three consecutive championships since the Celtics, Bulls and Lakers.
Such achievements are really eye-catching.
In the ancient Celtic dynasty, there were only eight teams at that time. When you entered the playoffs, you only need to play one round, five games in the match system, and win three of them to enter the finals.
Although this did not harm the greatness of the Celtic dynasty, the difficulty of winning the championship at that time was no longer than it is now.
The Bulls Dynasty, the founder of modern basketball, in an era with relatively weaker talent pool, Jordan led the team to win three consecutive championships twice, making him the undisputed first person in history.
OK The Lakers, in the early stages of the NBA's internationalization, had two top ten king combinations, O'Neal and Kobe, and successfully created three consecutive championships.
Until now, the NBA is highly international and the thickness of the talent pool has reached its highest peak in history.
The NBA is like a big suction cup, tirelessly absorbing elite talents from all over the world. It is too difficult to rule this era.
Li Xing was like a monster that came into being. He suddenly appeared and climbed to the top of the world with a terrifying posture. No one could stop him.
Now, one minute left, they can lift the Champions League.
All the main players of the Raptors stood on the sidelines and cheered for their teammates on the field.
There were garbage time in four consecutive finals, and this was the big fish pond where the two veterans Evans and Barnes were swaying.
Garbage time in the finals? Although it is not without it, it is rare to see garbage time in four consecutive games.
No matter what, the teams that have reached the finals can be said to be the strongest teams in their respective divisions, and there will be no such big gap.
After tonight, there is an issue that will inevitably be debated.
Is it because the Raptors are too strong or the Thunder are too weak?
This is the battlefield between black fans and loyal fans. Black fans will insist that Thunder is a weak chicken, and the Raptors' three consecutive championships have no value; loyal fans can use the example of being swept like 67 beats the Heat to prove the strength of the Raptors, and this will never convince the other party.
This is like political beliefs and different positions, so how can we persuade?
Even if I was speechless and smiled on my face, I still said I would make millions of mom criticism in my heart.
Snyder carefully tidied up his clothes, hoping that at the end of the game, the reporter could take him an unforgettable photo.
Triano walked to him and hugged him: "Congratulations, man."
"Same for you," Snyder said.
Three consecutive championships are a wonderful word. Many players are very happy. Only veterans who have experienced three consecutive times will get used to it.
When Patton was chattering around Middleton, Li Xing, DeRozan, Banyani and others clapped high-high.
Dragic was jumping beside the billboard.
Although he was the starter, this was his first championship.
He suddenly realized that the decision to join the Raptors was too correct.
Although his salary is several million less, here he has the highest exposure rate in the world, with sponsors and advertisers constantly calling brokers.
In the past, he was ignored, but now, he can even pick the one he likes from a bunch of commercial activities.
This is the difference.
His salary is less, but his income has increased by two or three times higher than before.
Not to mention, they won the championship.
As the game entered the last ten seconds, Calderon was in possession of the ball, and he was very familiar with this scene.
He was not present when the team won the championship last year.
But when the team won the championship for the first time, he was the main controller. He was deeply touched when he saw everyone celebrating wildly.
Now, this moment is coming again.
But he is no longer the main controller, he is a substitute between the second and third teams.
The injury took away many things.
He was thankful that at least he did not leave like Stephenson did.
"The competition is over!"
"The Raptors defeated the Thunder with a 31-point advantage, defeated the Thunder 4-0 in a big score, becoming the world champion this year!"
"This is the third time they have picked up the O'Brien Cup in a row in the past, let's congratulate them!"
"Yes, they deserve it!"
Li Xing, who scored 40 points and 27 rebounds, walked onto the court. He saw the third young master of Thunder looking down and knew that they were unwilling to accept it, but so what?
This is the game, there can only be one winner.
He must win, he has a system, he has a great talent, if it weren't for the ruler of this movement, he was really worried that time travelers from other time and space would travel over and kill him to vent their anger.
As a time traveler, it would be fine if he didn't rule the plane, but he couldn't even dominate the projects he was engaged in? Isn't that funny?
"Congratulations, you won again."
As soon as Durant spoke, Li Xing realized that this was a lie.
He was full of reluctance, but this was the basic etiquette of the competition, and he had to abide by it and force himself to say this disgusting word.
Even though none of the letters came from his sincerity, Li Xing held his palm hard: "KD, if you really want to win the championship, you can consider joining us."
Durant's pupils shrank.
Li Xing couldn't see his physical reaction, but the feeling he gave people was as if his heart was beating violently.
He was really excited, as if this sentence had come to his heart.
"You dream!"
Durant's unintentional anger made Li Xing even more worried.
Could this guy really want to join the Raptors, right?
However, as he said this today, it is impossible for Durant to really join the Raptors.
This sentence made both sides unable to get out of Taiwan, which means that even if he wanted to surrender to the enemy, he would not be able to surrender to Toronto.
What will happen to Durant who does not surrender to the enemy?
Li Xing didn't know, but he had changed this era, and he didn't even know whether the Golden State Warriors would rise.
Even if they rise up, can they influence an era like they did in their previous lives?
Will Curry's three-pointer lead the small ball revolution?
Li Xing didn't know that maybe his arrival would kill this sensational style of play, maybe not, who knows?
The players on the court greeted each other, whether they were sincere or hypocritical, they all gave each other a smile at the end of tonight.
The Raptors returned to the locker room and a bunch of reporters followed.
In the locker room, the Champagne War officially began.
Since Li Xing performed the best and his goal was the biggest, everyone couldn't help but point the gun at him.
This made Li Xing very angry: "Why do you criticize me?"
"This, of course, you need the person who is prone to spraying the nozzle, otherwise it will be a waste."
Patton, the damn smiling tiger, expressed everyone's thoughts.
“Fuck!”
He didn't say it was okay, but when Li Xing was even more angry, he simply aimed at Patton and squirted violently.
It's like fighting, you are surrounded by a group of people on the other side, but you have no grudges with these people, you just feel unhappy when you see someone.
What should I do at this time?
It is of course useless to hold your head and cry and beg for mercy. All you can do is beat the guy you don’t like.
Li Xing knew this truth well, so he set his sights on Patton and shot.
He succeeded, and Patton eventually became a Champagne man.
"Latch, will you come back at this time next year?"
A reporter who came to the locker room with the team interviewed Li Xing, who was dressed in champagne.
Li Xing nodded and smiled in a hat that symbolizes the championship, "Why not?"
“We will be back.”
"You guys were very energetic in the finals, why is that?"
"The answer is simple, because we are all young people."
Li Xing's answer left reporters speechless. The interview in the locker room was over and the carnival was over. They had to clean up, change their clothes, and return to the scene. Under the unanimous booing of the audience, they accepted Stern's speech. The head coach held the O'Brien Cup in his hand, and the Most Valuable Player of the Finals waved the Bill Russell Cup, which was over tonight.
At the competition site, the podium for the champion has been built.
To be continued...
