Starting from the last bus in the NBA

Chapter 434 Dynasty
"King, the new generation of basketball god!"

"A new dynasty, a new era!"

"Who can break the Sonics monopoly?"

……

No wonder the major media are so excited, Wang Hao's performance is really incredible.

At less than 24 years old, he is about to lead the Sonics to complete another three consecutive championships in history.

Moreover, at this age, he is not only an important member of the team, but the undisputed core.

Such achievements are far beyond the reach of even Jordan of the same age group.

If Wang Hao had not been an American, Jordan would have been dragged off the altar by now and Wang Hao would be promoted.

In addition to team honors, Wang Hao's statistics are also undisputed.

Facing the Pistons' desperate defense, the entire Sonics had a very difficult time.

But it was still Wang Hao, who scored 35 points by himself with his super scoring ability.

You know, the score of the entire Sonics is only 80 points. This is the strength of a superstar.

In the 3:0 situation, even the media who don't like Wang Hao or the SuperSonics have already started singing praises.

There is no way, in NBA history, no team has ever been able to complete a 3:0 reversal in the finals.

In the next four games, there will be two home games for the Sonics. Keeping a clean sheet against the Sonics is simply harder than reaching the sky.

Not to mention, the strength of the Pistons team is actually flawed to some extent.

Even the top teams in NBA history can't get out in front of the Sonics, let alone the Pistons.

A team with average strength and mediocre performance has even been nicknamed a civilian team.

To a certain extent, being able to get to this point reveals their tenacity, and of course, their lack of confidence.

If they can win, the Pistons will definitely be able to gather huge confidence.

Just like in the original time and space, the Lakers allowed the Pistons to win one game first, giving them huge self-confidence.

This will only make the tough Pistons more difficult to deal with.

But now, with consecutive losses, the Pistons' confidence is losing step by step.

Perhaps, now they no longer think about the championship, but think that winning once is enough.

Unfortunately, having such a mentality will only make things worse.

The Pistons won the championship in 2004 and lost it in 2005.

If you want to ask, which team is stronger in the year before and after?
Wang Hao would have chosen the 2005 Pistons, a team that had played seven games with the Spurs, which had a GDP.

Is it because another year has passed and the 2005 Pistons are far more mature than the 2004 Pistons?

Of course not, this team is not young.

The real reason is actually self-confidence. The self-confidence gained from winning the championship has transformed the Pistons.

So, today's Pistons are much worse.

This is not a casual guess by Wang Hao, but it is a fact, and everything has been explained on the field.

On June 6, the fourth game of the NBA Finals began, and the Pistons continued to show their tenacity.

From the first minute of the game, they were going all out, from offense to defense.

Not to mention, there was a back-and-forth with the SuperSonics, and they even maintained a continuous time lead.

It's a pity that the blessing brought by the mentality of "just win one game" is far less than competing for the championship.

When the third quarter started, the Sonics planned to close the game and explode with all their might.

The Pistons were relaxed for only 2 minutes, and Wang Hao directly led a three-pointer.

This rain of three-pointers fell, directly defeating the Pistons' few persistences.

Of course, the Pistons did not completely lose the idea of ​​chasing points. In fact, their offense performed well next.

It's a pity that their relaxed mentality directly prevented them from continuing to play hard on defense.

The SuperSonics also rarely played a mercury-filled fast break, allowing people to see the familiar SuperSonics.

106:91
In the end, the SuperSonics scored more than [-] points in a single game for the first time in this round of finals.

And this is also their fourth win in the finals.

"Champions, we are champions!"

The moment the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the SuperSonics bench burst into excitement.

Everyone rushed onto the court almost immediately, roaring with all their might and the joy in their chests.

"Nice job, king!"

Paul Westphal couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and he hugged Wang Hao into his arms with great excitement.

"Thank you, Paul!"

Wang Hao is also very happy, this is a three consecutive championship dynasty!
Just a few years ago, he personally defeated the Lakers dynasty, and now he has re-established it in his hands.

It's a pity that this is an away game after all, so we can't celebrate completely.

Of course, there is another very important reason. After the last game, everything seemed to have come to an end.

Not only was the huge advantage of 3:0, but more importantly, Wang Hao's buzzer-beater shattered the Pistons' confidence.

There are some things that don’t need to be said, but the players on the court can best experience them.

"King, congratulations!"

"Thanks, Chauncey, you did a great job too!"

"Richard, thank you!"

……

Pistons players lined up to hug Wang Hao, and Wang Hao also received their blessings.

As for words of comfort, he didn't say much, just thanked them for their wonderful performance in the finals.

There is no need to say too much. As a winner on the court, no matter how nice it is, it is just showing off.

It's like someone who agreed to leave his future to someone else, but ended up refusing to leave.

Therefore, no matter how nice you say it, it is useless. If you really have a chance, no one will give up the championship. Everyone depends on their ability.

After a short celebration and cheers, a simple award podium had been set up at the scene.

The Sonics are already very familiar with all this.

The only pity is that it seems that their three championships were all won away from home.

Without the company of fans, it seems that this award ceremony has lost some of its flavor.

David Stern stood on the podium, and in addition to him and Sonics, there was a host.

The host didn't waste any time, and simply handed the microphone to David Stern, and then he announced the championship of this season.

David Stern first affirmed the Pistons' performance and praised the Pistons greatly.

In fact, they deserve such praise for going from a civilian team to the finals stage.

"The winner of the NBA 2003-2004 season championship is...the Seattle SuperSonics!"

Once again lifting the championship trophy, Howard Schultz was simply overjoyed.

His once risky investment in the NBA has now made him a lot of money.

No, Howard Schultz took the microphone and praised everyone on the SuperSonics team.

Especially Wang Hao and Paul Westphal, he wanted to blow them to the sky.

Next, it was still a similar routine, with the host interviewing everyone from the Sonics one after another.The most excited among them is naturally Kirilenko.

He was just traded to the SuperSonics and actually received a championship ring like this?
He knew that his two old team members did not hesitate to risk the whole night, but in the end they still got nothing.

"The most valuable player in the NBA Finals from 2003 to 2004 is...Wang Hao!"

This time, David Stern didn't pretend to be suspense anymore. It was really unnecessary, it was too clear.

Throughout the series, due to the defensive battle between the two teams, most people's shooting percentage was around 40%.

And Wang Hao, tortured by one Pistons player after another, still shot over 45%.

You know, he takes a lot of three-pointers. In this case, it is already very difficult.

四场比赛下来，王昊场均能够获得30.8分6.8篮板5.5助攻，还有1.5盖帽2抢断。

With such an absolutely core super performance, there is absolutely no suspense about who will win the Finals MVP!

"King, how do you feel? This is your third Finals MVP trophy!"

“Of course, it’s wonderful, as always, just like the first time I received this trophy, I was so excited that I can’t express it.

However, I still have to say as I always have, only with the championship can I have this award.

So I have to thank my teammates and our coaching staff for helping me win.

In my opinion, the MVP trophy belongs to all of us just like the championship trophy. "

……

After all, this is an away game. Neither the SuperSonics nor the officials can arrange too many celebrations. After all, this is their territory.

After a simple winning process, everything is over.

Of course, the end referred to here refers to the official activities of the NBA and the Pistons.

As for the Sonics, the celebrations have just begun.

In the dressing room, the champagne that had been prepared was scattered everywhere, and Wang Hao was naturally the focus of attention.

In addition to him, the old man Paul Westphal also did not escape.

"we are the champion!"

"we are the champion!"

……

Cheers continued to come from the locker room, but the countless reporters waiting could only listen to these sounds.

The locker room, it belongs to this team.

After the celebration, although the SuperSonics players were very excited, they did not continue.

This isn't Seattle, so celebrating won't be too joyful.

Moreover, after winning, the most important thing is to share it not only with your teammates, but also with your family.

Everyone from the Sonics team up and down basically has their families coming with them, and what follows is family time.

Even Wang Hao called home late at night to tell his parents.

In fact, as parents, even though they did not go to the United States, how could they not pay attention to Wang Hao.

I chatted with my parents for a while, mainly talking about when to return to China.

Now that he is single again, Wang Hao also plans to stay in the United States. It would be better to return to China as soon as possible.

At that time, maybe you can take your parents to visit around. You don’t have to go abroad, the scenery in China is very good.

However, it is estimated that he will not have much leisure time. After all, this is an Olympic year.

In 2004, there are still a few months until the Athens Olympics.

Wang Hao attaches great importance to the Athens Olympics.

Because he knows very well that if possible, the Athens Olympics will be his only chance to win the Olympic championship.

Because by this time, the players for the US team to compete in the Athens Olympics have basically been announced.

The final list has not been released yet, but compared to the original time and space, it is even worse.

The simple truth is that those American stars are not focused on the Olympics.

Isn’t it great to be an NBA champion?

With the SuperSonics likely to complete three consecutive championships, NBA stars care more about the NBA championship.

Let's put it this way, many NBA stars are currently going all out to impact the SuperSonics' dominance.

Especially now that the Sonics have officially completed three consecutive championships, the stars who were still hesitant at first may also quit.

In today's international basketball world, the US team is still the only one in the league, and the strength gap between the other teams is not very big.

The German team can beat Spain, Spain can beat Argentina, and Lithuania also performed well.

Of course, if the Yugoslav team could qualify, there would be a different result.

Compared with these teams, the Chinese team is indeed a little behind, but it is not completely different from teammates.

Because of the existence of Yao Ming and Wang Hao, the world's top level inside and outside has laid the foundation for the Chinese team.

So, this is his best chance.

If possible, he naturally hopes to win the championship at home in four years.

But the problem is, it's really not his decision.

In other words, he got the basketball system. If he got the football system, the national team could just give up.

Well, there is another premise that must be added here, it must be the Chinese national team in the first ten years of the new century.

If it were the Chinese national team after 2010 or even after 2020, even Wang Hao wouldn't be able to lead it.

In the 2008 Olympics at home, he will naturally go all out, but it will be a bit difficult.

After all, the American team is the American team. As long as he takes it seriously, he will still be the only national team in strength.

This year, it was just because of the arrogance of the American team that it gave other countries a chance.

Such an opportunity can come once, but it is difficult to have a second time.

Maybe there will indeed be more opportunities many years from now, but by then, those opportunities may not be reserved for the Chinese team.

Early the next morning, the Sonics all returned to Seattle, and the team owner generously chartered a plane.

Next, of course, is the carnival between Seattle and the SuperSonics.

In fact, not only them, but the entire American sports world, especially the media that pays attention to the NBA, are celebrating.

Another three-peat dynasty since the Chicago Bulls, a true dynasty.

"Wang, the only spokesperson of the NBA!"

"The new king has ascended the throne, who can challenge the king's position next?"

"The SuperSonics are already one of the greatest teams in NBA history!"

"Michael Jordan has truly met the challenge of being the No. 1 player in NBA history!"

……

No, today's major media reports have long stopped comparing other teams with the SuperSonics.

The teams that can be compared with the SuperSonics are all famous teams in NBA history.

The same is true for Wang Hao. He has long been compared with many NBA celebrities.

Especially with the results he has achieved, he surpassed a large group of people early and pointed directly at Michael Jordan.
