0738: [This is the country that Dad gave you](1/2)
The basketball atmosphere in New York has been extremely fervent in recent years.
They have reached the finals for five consecutive years.
This is a very remarkable honor. Li Zhen helped them score three times before and won two consecutive championship trophies. Later, although Li Zhen and the original championship team left the Knicks, the arrival of LeBron James and others still
Let the New York Knicks maintain their position as the Eastern Conference hegemon... Although they did not go further to win the championship as they expected last season. Instead, Li Zhen led a group of young troops to block their hopes.
New York fans are very unhappy about this matter.
However, every injustice has its owner. Phil Jackson, the instigator, has left, and Jerry West, an important helper, has also been very low-key in the recent season.
Although fans are dissatisfied with the performance of James and others in last season's finals, they are still Knicks players after all. Moreover, they are dedicated and diligent this season and rarely appear in the media. They focus on doing a good job in the game and silently
The Knicks had the highest winning rate in the regular season.
There is nothing else to criticize.
Of course, fans and the media can only focus on encouragement and praise. They cannot bring up old things again and scold them.
And, the most important thing is.
Knicks fans have learned the lesson. They understand Li Zhen's temper and know that confronting him before the game will only irritate him, and irritating him will definitely not bring good results.
Therefore, when Li Zhen suggested that the Knicks were stronger than the Bulls of that year, they did not hesitate to point their guns at the Chicago Bulls of that year.
Started fucking in the air.
It's as if the opponent in the finals is the Bulls dynasty instead of the Los Angeles Clippers.
In fact, the New York media is not only attacking the Bulls dynasty of that year, but also attacking the OK dynasty. The higher they praise their opponents at this time, the greater the sense of accomplishment they will feel after winning.
The Los Angeles Clippers arrived in New York on June 11 and immediately rented a venue for training after arriving in New York.
They will stay in New York for at least four days, and daily training is essential.
At the same time, everyone in Li Zhen’s backyard group came except pregnant Anne Hathaway and Mary Olsen. Moreover, none of them brought their children.
Most of them have not been to the colorful world of New York for a long time.
Moreover, since Li Zhen stacked up with the three sisters in the hotel, Scarlett Johansson has discovered a blind spot like Watson.
That is...the powerful and powerful man will not affect his physical strength for the next day's game just because of pre-game errands.
It will even enhance the output during the game.
This discovery surprised the Blues girls, as if the great invention from the steam engine to the internal combustion engine had embarked on the road to happiness.
Li Zhen complained endlessly.
Originally I could take a break because of the competition day, but now I'm fine...I can't stop at all.
Fortunately, he stayed at the team's hotel on the grounds of cultivating a tacit understanding with his teammates.
Moreover, he hoped that as team shareholders, they would not come to the hotel to affect the atmosphere before the game. If, as team leaders and team shareholders, they did that kind of thing before the game, wouldn't everyone lose their military morale?
Li Zhen's righteous words finally allowed him to escape from the sea of suffering.
But what he didn't expect, what made him even more troubled was that Scarlett Johansson's concert was coming to New York, and her best friends would come to attend.
The schedules of the wives of the main wife here and the schedules of the wives of the wives there will inevitably collide.
Moreover, Swift said: We haven't opened here for a long time, and this time... you definitely can't leave.
What else can Li Zhen do?
Those who are able should work harder.
…
On June 13, the 2011-2012 NBA Finals officially began.
Basketball fans around the world have focused their attention on this game.
At the same time, many veterans came to the sidelines one after another, including Kevin Garnett, Shawn Marion, Paul Pierce... and so on.
Li Zhen’s wife group also received preferential treatment from the New York Knicks. They provided them with rare VIP tickets, and they were all in good locations.
This year's New York Knicks have learned from top to bottom and have learned not to anger the Clippers, especially Bruce Lee, off the court.
Before the game, James also praised Li Zhen before the game. He said that Li Zhen was the first person in history to tap into the hidden energy of his teammates. He was far inferior to him.
This can be said to be the first time in history that James has surrendered to Li Zhen.
Of course, Li Zhen also expressed his appreciation for James' painstaking skills this season. He believes that LeBron James' strength has improved by at least 30% from last season.
This is a very objective evaluation. James has comprehensively improved his skills, shooting ability, back-up ability, and even his ability to lean back this season.
This is an extremely rare thing for a tank forward known for his physical fitness.
It can be said that the emergence of Li Zhen has a very obvious effect on improving the top superstars in the NBA. Because of his existence, Kobe Bryant learned to pass and gained a sense of sharing. Because of his existence, LeBron James improved his technical skills.
.There are also new generation superstars such as Kevin Durant and Derrick Rose. In order to catch up with Li Zhen, they can only increase their efforts to improve their personal strength.
"There is no doubt that this is the strongest finals matchup in the NBA in ten years."
Reggie Miller said this to the fans during the pre-game commentary session.
Yes, everyone agrees on this.
That's why billions of basketball fans around the world are glued to their television sets.
Although there are many Bulls fans who do not admit that the Knicks are better than the dynasty Bulls, many Lakers fans are unwilling to accept that the Clippers are better than the OK Dynasty.
However, no one has any objection to their definition of the strongest finals matchup in the past ten years.
David Stern stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his office. He could see the lights from the top of Madison Garden Arena, and excited calls were coming from the TV.
At this moment, he wanted to call Adam Silver in: Look! This is the country I have built for you.
David Stern is very satisfied with the NBA's influence and commercial value today.
He is full of a sense of accomplishment.
The NBA has seized at least three take-off opportunities in his hands.
The first wave is naturally Jordan's wave.
Then came the 1996 golden generation. Although this wave was focused on finding Jordan's successor, in fact they were competing for beauty and beauty, and staged the romance of the gods.
Then, David Stern originally tried his best to create this wave of James, and he almost succeeded.
As a result, who would have thought that Li Zhen, the No. 1 pick in 2006, would suddenly rise to the top and push the NBA's influence and commercial value to the highest peak in history. He also became the most commercially successful player in NBA history.
Although he has made much more money than the NBA in other fields, whether it is investment or the stock market, he is still an important reason why the NBA has reached such a peak.
Without him, where would the phenomenon of today's ratings in the United States even begin to approach the Super Bowl?
To be honest, if Jack Lee were here, David Stern would even want Adam Silver to kowtow to him. If it weren't for Jack Lee's upbringing, how could Jiangshan Ruhua be here?
Therefore, David Stern agreed to the new terms proposed by Mark Cuban without hesitation.
Moreover, he has already been angry with many NBA owners.
Basically there will be no problem.
Rookie superstars can be exchanged for equivalent amounts of money. This is very reasonable, and even...a good deal that you can only dream of. Which owner of an NBA team who can afford it would be short of these three melons? And this can promote the relationship between players.
The flow between teams enhances the rebalancing of strengths and weaknesses between teams.
The most important thing is that in the football world, this kind of transfer fee is too common.
The NBA's move undoubtedly takes the lead in the North American sports world.
In fact, David Stern also understands why Li Zhen did what he did.
Li Zhen has great confidence in himself. He believes that as long as he is around, he can build a championship team with veterans and rookies. In addition, he has such a good eye for draft selection. So, what is the problem with maximizing benefits?
?To train a rookie, sell him millions in cash and exchange him for a draft pick, and then continue to draft and train him, is simply a business without capital.
The most important thing is that the teams that receive the players he trained also make money, the players also get a bigger stage, and the league also makes the strength of the teams more balanced.
Everyone is happy, why not?
…
Beep!
The whistle sounded, and David Stern's thoughts were brought back to reality.
The situation in this year's finals is so complicated that even the most staunch commentators dare not say who will win the championship.
Although all analyzes show that the New York Knicks have the upper hand.
However, lagging behind in terms of strength is really commonplace for the Clippers. Since Li Zhen’s debut, hasn’t Li Zhen been in a tough battle in which the weak defeated the strong?
Commentators have become accustomed to this.
The New York Knicks will start tonight with Emeka Okafor, Chris Bosh, Taj Gibson, Dwyane Wade, and LeBron James.
This lineup is full of athletic ability. After LeBron James returns to the point guard, he kills everyone, and the mismatch advantage is extremely obvious.
And the most important thing is that the defensive ability of this Knicks lineup is really terrifying, even more terrifying than the iron-blooded New York team in the 1990s. It is like the return of the Iron Curtain. Qian Sheng coach Wilkins really has a way.
The starting lineup sent by the Clippers is Jason Kidd, Li Zhen, Gordon Hayward, Jermaine O'Neal, and DeAndre Jordan.
To be continued...
