Chapter 1,079 Can’t Wait to Look Forward to It!
After defeating the Los Angeles Lakers in the away game, the Seattle SuperSonics defeated the Los Angeles Lakers with a score of 4-0 in the Western Conference Finals. At the Staples Center in Los Angeles, amid the cheers of the fans, David Stern smiled. Under the watchful eyes, he raised this year's Western Conference championship trophy high.
This Western Conference championship trophy is the third Western Conference championship won by the Seattle SuperSonics in three consecutive years.
At the same time, this trophy is also a ticket to the finals. Therefore, this is also the third consecutive time that the Seattle SuperSonics has entered the finals.
Winning the Western Conference championship for three consecutive years and entering the Finals for three consecutive years made the Seattle SuperSonics the first team in the Western Conference besides the Lakers to achieve such an achievement.
In the history of the NBA's Western Conference, only the Los Angeles Lakers have won three or more Western Conference championships in a row.
Others such as the Fort Wayne Pistons (the predecessor of the Pistons, who were divided with the Lakers and Kings in the middle of the Western Conference at the time), the St. Louis Hawks (the predecessor of the Atlanta Hawks), the Houston Rockets, the Utah Jazz, and even the Seattle SuperSonics themselves in 7778 and 7879, used to be Just won the Western Conference championship two years in a row.
It can only be said that in the Western Conference, it is too difficult to dominate the league for three consecutive years and enter the finals.
Except for the Lakers, the No. 1 team in the Western Conference, only the Seattle SuperSonics have done so until now.
At the same time, the Seattle SuperSonics may become the second team after the Lakers to establish a dynasty in the West and build a holy city.
So, no matter what the outcome of the upcoming finals is.
This is a great achievement for the Seattle SuperSonics.
Therefore, even if we lose again in the Western Conference Finals, no matter how uncomfortable it is, Lakers players such as Kobe, Nash, Stoudemire, Phil Jackson, and even Lakers fans will always stay here to witness this thing that belongs to the Seattle SuperSonics and Ye Yasu. legend.
Seeing such an atmosphere at the scene, David Stern, who had been watching the Seattle SuperSonics players celebrating in cheers with a smile on his face, was also filled with emotion.
Yesterday, he also handed over the trophy representing the finals tickets and the Eastern Conference championship to the Heat of Wade and James.
The scene in Orlando was also packed.
But what Wade James and the Heat received was not applause and cheers, but overwhelming boos.
Also winning the division championship, the Leafs and the Seattle SuperSonics seemed to have defeated all their opponents.
In fact, this is indeed the case, whether it is a big score of 12-0, a complete victory in the regular season, or the players on the team are all selected by Yes and trained by Yes, and Yes' playing style is also upright. His playing style and character are also that of a fairy tale white lotus.
It can be said that the Seattle SuperSonics led by Ye Si has no stain on this team.
Losing to such a team, no matter what happens, no one will feel dissatisfied.
As for the Heat, it's completely different.
Thinking of the Heat's encounter in Orlando yesterday, look at the people present now, such as Nowitzki, Afflalo, Kobe, Nash and others, giving Yez and the SuperSonics applause.
These are two completely different worlds.
But, no matter what, no matter what the world thinks of the two teams about to play in the Finals.
In competitive sports, the strong is king!
Whether it's boos or applause, in the end it's strength that speaks.
In the final 12-0 SuperSonics and 12-1 Heat, who will be the ultimate winner of this legendary season?
David Stern himself is looking forward to it.
Although the Western Conference championship award ceremony was not held at the Key Arena, the home of the Sonics.
But because of the support of Lakers players and Lakers fans such as Kobe and Nash, the atmosphere at the scene seemed to be no worse than Key Arena.
Last year, the Seattle SuperSonics defeated the Lakers at Key Arena and finally won the Western Conference championship trophy.
It will be the third year to win this trophy again this year.
Yeas and the SuperSonics players are very clear about the meaning of winning this trophy for three consecutive years.
That's dynasty!
Even if they forget, the whole world will remind them not to forget.
At the post-game press conference after the small-scale Western Conference championship celebration, the reporters from all over the world constantly reminded Ye Si, reminding him what a dynasty is, what 16-0 is, and what the greatest is. legend.
"For the Sonics, these are the goals of the Sonics. I will not say how great these goals are when the goals have not been achieved, because no matter what your expectations are, these goals have not yet been achieved. Castles in the air.”
"The only thing I can say now is that we will work hard to achieve all the goals we hope to achieve, but the Miami Heat are not an ordinary team. On the contrary, they are the most special team in the NBA and our most special team." We have never been afraid of our opponents, and we will never underestimate them. Facing such a team, we will play well in every game."
At the press conference, Ye Si spoke a lot more than before.
But what made the reporters at the scene scratch their heads was that although they talked a lot, they lacked a lot of exciting content.
Quite conservative.
You know, Ye Si used to be known as the NBA's number one player who doesn't talk much.
He didn't say much, but every word he said was extremely ruthless.
"Have you noticed that every time Yes faces James, he speaks very conservatively and is a little too gentle?"
"Yes, it seems that James really has a high status in Ye Si's heart."
The relationship between James and Ye Si has always been something that these media reporters like to hear about.
Even Chinese reporters like Wang Han often carry reports on the relationship between Ye Si and James in China.
However, domestically, the relationship between Yes and James did not cause any major response among the fan base.
Unlike the United States, in the United States, Ye Si and Roy, Ye Si and James are the two largest CP party groups.
In China, Ye Si and Yao Ming, Ye Si and Durant are the two largest CP groups. Even Ye Si and Rondo, Ye Si and Yi Jianlian have higher CP acceptance than Ye Si and James.
Therefore, for the American reporters who were happy to hear about the relationship between Ye Si and James, Chinese reporters like Wang Han were not so excited and were also confused.
As Ye Si's assistant, Wang Han certainly knows that James does have a special status in Ye Si's heart.
Every time James is mentioned, Ye Si's face looks strange.
But she never thought that Ye Si's feelings for James were the feelings these people thought.
Be gentle with James?
Full of feelings for James?
What a joke!
Wasn't Ye Si beaten to death when he met James?
Has James ever defeated Yes once in his career?
If this is gentleness, she hopes that Ye Si's "tenderness" towards James can be more intense in this year's finals.
"Yes, because this season the Eastern and Western finals are all swept, and the SuperSonics and Heat finals will start in a week. You have said before that one of the things you are most looking forward to in the NBA is to be able to stand on the same court with James. , can’t wait now?”
"I can't wait. Not only can I wait for the finals, but I can't wait for next season as well. You know why."
After Ye Si finished speaking with a smile, the entire press conference immediately erupted into a violent roar after a brief silence.
"What did Yes just say? He said he can't wait to stand on the same court with James and play in the Finals, and he can't wait for next season to come!"
"Yes, we understand the reason. What is the reason? Of course we understand!"
"Yes feels that it is impossible for James to stay with the Heat next season. Yes is sending an invitation to James to come to the SuperSonics next season!"
"That must be the case. The meaning of "Yes" must be that I look forward to partnering with James in the SuperSonics next season!"
"Of course Yes is looking forward to partnering with James in the SuperSonics next season. Do you think Yes is now looking forward to James returning to the Cavaliers next season?!"
Feeling the sudden explosion at the scene, Wang Han and the Chinese reporters present were surprised.
"Sister Han, is Ye Si really inviting James? Willn't Yao Ming leave the Rockets and go to the SuperSonics next season?"
The Seattle SuperSonics can free up at least 35 million in salary space next season. If they squeeze it out, it will be more than 40 million.
This means that the Seattle SuperSonics can sign any free agent next season.
Among them, many people are speculating about who the SuperSonics will sign as a top-paid free agent next season.
The biggest favorites are Yao Ming and James.
But after Durant and Rondo won the MVP, James' odds exploded instantly, and the probability became extremely low.
The probability of Yao Ming has skyrocketed.
There is no way, James' current honor cannot hold down Durant and Rondo, so he can only go to the SuperSonics to be the fourth player.
But Yao Ming is different. Yao Ming has an MVP, and Yao Ming's status and honor in the NBA are ahead of Durant and Rondo. Durant and Rondo won't have any objections.
Therefore, after Durant and Rondo won the MVP, domestic fans are already celebrating in advance that Ye Si and Yao Ming will form a team next season.
Many people are even thinking that after Yao Ming arrives with the SuperSonics next season, it would be best if the SuperSonics send Milicic to the Timberwolves in exchange for Yi Jianlian, so that a Seattle Chinese team can be formed.
This is a beautiful wish of domestic fans.
Is it possible for this wish to come true?
Of course it is possible.
But now, according to what Ye Si just said, it seems that he has already decided that James is the candidate?
Ye Si said at the press conference that he is looking forward to next season. You know why, this sentence caused a big shock the next day.
The momentum for the Finals between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Miami Heat started when the SuperSonics led the Lakers 2-0.
And what Ye Si said simply added the strongest flame to this campaign.
The entire Heat team watched the game between the SuperSonics and the Lakers.
At the post-game press conference, what Ye Si said was of course heard by all the Heat players the next day.
"It starts again!"
When he woke up early this morning and saw the news, as the head coach of the Heat, Spoelstra almost cried.
The story of James working undercover for Yes last season is still fresh in my mind.
Is Yes now starting to play with the relationship between him and James to affect James' combat effectiveness?
Of course, I think so, but Spoelstra doesn't really think so.
The whole world knows about the feud between James and Wade.
James will definitely leave next season. Every time Wade is interviewed, he says that James will go to the SuperSonics next season. This is also something that the whole world knows, and it is not a conspiracy of Ye Si.
There is no problem at all in the relationship between Ye Si and James when he says this.
I look forward to playing with James next season. If there is any problem, there will be no problem.
What's more, Ye Si has never been a person who takes advantage of others' danger.
In the previous series between the SuperSonics and the Mavericks, the whole world knew that Nowitzki was a loophole in the Mavericks' defense, but Yeez almost never took the initiative to fix this loophole.
How could a player who was so aboveboard on the court sow discord between opposing players?
Even as an opponent, Spoelstra would not believe that Yees said this to sow discord between James and Wade.
He just thought that way just to complain.
There is no other meaning.
What's more, the current relationship between James and Wade really doesn't need to be instigated.
In the past, the banana boat brothers of James, Wade, Chris Paul and Anthony, the Four Fabulous Four, were all positive brother images that NBA fans loved to see, but now, who doesn’t know that the brotherhood between these four people is a plastic brotherhood, you stabbed them in the back Me, if I backstab you, if you backstab him again, it will become a popular joke about brotherhood.
Therefore, even if Ye Si tried to provoke him, it was useless. The relationship between them was already bad enough.
However, although Spoelstra believed that Ye Si had no other thoughts and was simply looking forward to partnering with James, but...
James was quite shocked and excited about these "tiger and wolf words" that Ye Si said in the interview.
Yes's feelings for him were indeed incredibly deep.
With Yes's status in the NBA, he is the male god and partner that almost all active and retired players in the NBA dream of. Pippen hates every day that he met that scumbag Jordan when he was 18 years old.
Such a male god only has a soft spot for him, which is indeed something to be proud of.
However, excitement was excitement, but James didn't say anything.
He is a smart man, and he knows very well that Ye Si can expect this, but he cannot respond. He must win the championship this season.
What James never expected was that he didn't respond to Ye Si's words, but someone responded for him.
"I think Yes's words are very excessive. He is the strongest player in NBA history. He is James' best confidant. His relationship with James is the deepest friendship between players in the history of the NBA. They will meet starting next season. To be the best team in the history of the NBA, but he should not say such things now, he lacks respect for me and my team, and now, James is still my teammate!"
unacceptable!
Whether I get to know LeBron, become friends with LeBron, or become teammates with LeBron, it all comes first to me!
And I have already admitted failure, why are you still humiliating me like this!
"In this finals, I will tell Yes, I will do whatever it takes to get back the dignity I lost!"
The unparalleled strong black energy erupting from Wade shocked James and even made him a little scared...
