From today on is the king

Chapter 1572 1571. Came here again
"I didn't expect that the opponent was the Suns. Kobe, Duncan, and O'Neal will still participate in this year's finals. Counting it, it has been ten years."

Liu Mang sighed, in fact, when the Suns and the Lakers entered the Western Conference finals, it was already confirmed that at least one of these three would enter the finals, and this is not a record but an amazing thing to continue.

Kwame Brown counted on his fingers, and said in surprise: "Boss, it's true! Since Duncan entered the Finals in 99, until now, in the past ten seasons, one of Duncan, Kobe, and O'Neal has played in the Finals every three minutes!"

"Yeah...but I guess the alliance is about to change..."

Liu Mang already smelled the bloody smell.

For the past two years, Liu Mang has been analyzing when the superstar grouping will start. It should not be considered the grouping era. There has not been a real situation where superstars become free agents regardless of their old clubs and other superstars.

The real grouping era should be the situation where James and Bosh signed almost naked to the Heat, and Durant and Cousins ​​joined the Warriors with naked signs.

Relatively speaking, Liu Mang believes that James was forced to play brother basketball in 2010 in the original time and space. As Liu Mang said just now, since the 1999 Finals, one of Kobe, Duncan, and O’Neal has played in the Finals every year. From 1999 to 2010, there are a total of 12 championships. Except for the Celtics Big Three, the Heat won O’Neal, and the Pistons won three championships, the other championships are all Lakers and Spurs. The Heat’s championship They still have a chance to get O'Neal.

That is to say, in 12 years, there are only two championships that have nothing to do with those three people.

Few people call the Celtics Big Three a group, because Garnett had played for 12 seasons at that time, and he was a 31-year-old veteran. Ray Allen had played for 11 seasons, and they were both 32 years old. The youngest Pierce was also 30 years old.

Giants like the Lakers now are not regarded as a group, because they were acquired by trade. They were attacked because they did not give the Grizzlies enough returns, such as the trade for Yao Ming. Now that Bynum is playing, there are fewer attackers, and the Grizzlies only get Caron Butler...

The Hawks trade has always been a trade that suffers, but the Hawks have been able to perform amazingly in the draft and have enough chips to smash. Back then, the Hawks used two talented young players, Iguodala and Josh Smith.

The Magic traded for Carter, and also removed half of the rotation, and the Mavericks' salary has always been more than 9000 million...

Generally speaking, the league is still within a "traditional rule", and the older generation of superstars are still worried about face.

But this year... Liu Mang feels that things will change!

It's hard to say who it is, but Liu Mang feels that there will definitely be changes!
Liu Mang was pretending to be deep, when Little Lolita ran over and took his arm: "Uncle, have you rested yet, accompany Dinah to sit on that one! That one! And that one!"

"Okay... let's go..."

Liu Mang feels more tired now than playing the Eastern Conference finals with the Magic!

After defeating the Magic 4-2 yesterday, the Eagles were going to fly back to Atlanta tonight. When Liu Mang went for physical therapy last night, Little Loli stared at Coach Kruger with tear-filled eyes for a long time in the lounge, and finally got a promise to change the charter flight time to night.

Early this morning, the families of some Eagles players flew over from Atlanta. Anyway, they are close, 20 minutes away, and came to Disney to play together.

The children of NBA players rarely have the opportunity to go to the playground with their fathers, McGrady and Jason Terry, Kwame Brown's eldest son had a good time, Dinah and Stockton's younger daughter had a good time, and Jimmy Jr. also came, but he acted like a big brother and was very disdainful of these things...

Originally, little Jimmy thought that Liu Mang and others would take the initiative to let him play together, so he could play together half-heartedly, but none of the group of people had a good heart... Little Jimmy could only continue to pretend to be cool...

Liu Mang and Little Lolita rode the roller coaster together three times... The queue was okay, today is not the weekend, and the locals in Orlando are not particularly cold about the playground, but Liu Mang still sat so that he was going to throw up...

But after playing for a day, the Eagles can be considered relaxed...

……

……

The day after the Eagles returned to Atlanta, on the morning of June 6th, when Liu Mang came to the arena with Little Lolita, who was starting her summer vacation, and Bekas, whom Liu Mang had to bring along while holding Liu Mang’s thigh, someone from the Suns also came to Phillips Arena.

Raja Bell...

Neither Liu Mang nor Raja Bell greeted each other.

After Liu Mang entered the training ground, he checked his phone, and it was only eight o'clock...

"Ri Tian, ​​sit with Dinah, don't run around, or you will be caught and sold." Liu Mang went to the locker room after he finished speaking to Bekas.

Xiao Zhengtai can also understand some words, at least while sitting, it is rare to be brought out by the father, Bekas sits obediently in the rest area next to the training ground.

Little Loli gave Bekas a basketball to play with. She never understood why Liu Mang called Bekas "Ritian", but playing with Bekas was better than playing with Avril.

When Liu Mang changed into his training clothes and came out to warm up, he saw Bekas falling asleep on a ball...

"Dinna, why are you talking about why the kid came out with us and slept in another place?" Liu Mang squatted next to the little Lolita and poked the fat baby's face.

"Dinah doesn't know either." Little Loli also knelt down and poked the other side of her face.

"Forget it, Dinah, keep an eye on him. Someone will remind them not to step on this kid." Liu Mang took off the top of his training suit, put it on Bekas, and went to stretch in his vest.

"..." Little Lolita gave Liu Mang a white look, and replied "Oh".

……

"Are they here too?"

"Well, they arrived earlier than us, and they arrived at us at 08:30."

"No! We will arrive at the arena earlier than them tomorrow!"

"That's right, we must all be here at 25:[-] tomorrow!"

Seeing Jason Terry and Liu Mang want to compare with their opponents in everything, the other teammates were helpless and had to get up half an hour earlier.

Well, sometimes you take a break and you're more motivated the next day, and that's the case with the Hawks right now.

I had a good day of relaxation yesterday, without worrying about other things, and spent a day at the amusement park with my family. This kind of experience is not common for most NBA players, and it may not happen once a year.

Both the Eagles and the Suns began to actively prepare for the game.

In general, the Suns have one more day off, and they have a little advantage in this regard. The Suns have determined that the Eagles will enter the finals, and they have been preparing for the series with the Eagles from the beginning.

……

……

Since the Lakers played seven games in the first two rounds, the Hawks also played six games in the conference finals, which almost reached the limit of the NBA's official estimated time to start the finals at the latest.

The Eastern Conference finals on the 3rd are over, and the finals on the 6th are about to start.

Discussions about the Suns have been changing rapidly over the past two days.

From the very beginning, "How did the Suns make it to the Finals?" to "How did the Suns make it to the Finals" to "Finally the Western Conference finals team is not the Lakers and Spurs" and finally became...

Can Solar kill the Eagles?Will Solar prevent the Eagles from starting another dominance?

The fans of the Eastern and Western teams stand in two very opposing positions. Except for the Bulls and Celtics in the East, fans of most teams prefer to see the Eagles win.

In the west, basically hope that solar energy will win.

More than a day passed quickly, and on the night of the 6th, the game was about to start...

……

"Rajon, Jason, Dwyane, Tracy, Michael, Grant, Desmond, Sean, Lewis, Jermaine, Kwame, Marcin, Brad, Mark... You see, this is what I've gotten over the past few years."

In the Eagles locker room, the three O'Brien Cups are lined up as if to show off their splendor. They are usually displayed together with another championship trophy of a different style in the boss's office for the visiting guests to "appreciate". Today, when the players went to warm up, they were placed in the locker room by the coaching staff.

Maybe for the fans, the three consecutive championships just make them feel so good, but for the former opponents who witnessed this scene in the league with their own eyes, it was too shocking, as if the picture of the Eagles' invincible dominance in those three years resurfaced.

MVP or something is not very important. Why did the Suns give him so much respect from the players to the coaching staff when O'Neal was 36 years old?In terms of strength, Josh Smith is obviously stronger.

It is because of the three consecutive championships!
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has won 10 regular season MVPs in 6 years, but his evaluation of dominance is far inferior to that of O'Neal, relying on three consecutive championships.

After Kobe won five championships in the original time and space, he was called the No. 1 in the history of the Lakers... because of the three consecutive championships and then another two consecutive championships.

Liu Mang touched the championship trophy he won with his own hands and said: "We have come here again. I don't know what other people think about reaching the finals. I only have one opinion about entering the finals...or only being able to enter the finals. If we enter the finals and lose, it is no different from being ranked last in the league. Last year we fell on the stage we were about to step on. I don't know what the result will be this year.

I only know that we are all gathered in this team for the championship. Come with me to win this finals!Stop being the biggest loser! "
