Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 915 Mobilization Before the Game
May 5st is the last day of May. On this ordinary day, the eyes of the whole world are focused on Chicago.

The much-anticipated first game of the NBA Finals will be held tonight at the United Center in Chicago.

Regarding this year's finals, the league has been warming up for a long time, such as the Warriors' dream of three consecutive championships, the Bulls' revenge, the return of Miss Jordan, etc., all kinds of gimmicks are like stacking buffs, which are added layer by layer.

In fact, even if the league does not promote it, the two teams themselves are very topical. One is the Bulls who scored the first record in league history this season with 72 wins. It is the first full season after superstar Jordan returned. Before the start of the game, the sword was already pointing to the championship.

The other Warriors team is even more legendary this season. Although the Warriors' record in the regular season is not good, only ranked fifth in the West, but throughout the playoffs, they have eliminated the Supersonics with 64 wins and 18 losses, 58 wins and 24 losses. The Rockets and the Jazz with 55 wins and 27 losses can be said to be the strongest opponents in the history of the league.

This kind of legendary road to the playoffs made every fan involuntarily extend a thumbs up to Li Weisi. After all, before this, the vast majority of viewers did not think that the Warriors could reach the finals this year. finals.

Even the Jordan fans who don't like Li Weisi the most have to admit that Li Weisi is really good. Although they still think that Jordan is the strongest, they have been convinced by Li Weisi and admit that he is a star of the same level as Jordan.

However, although the gimmicks in this round of the finals are full of gimmicks, almost everyone has the same opinion about the result of the game, that is, the Bulls championship.

No way, the Bulls this season are really strong and have no friends. Whether it is offense or defense, they are almost the top in the league, and the team's chemical reaction is also very good. There is no obvious weakness at all.

So much so that in the pre-match commentary booth, several commentators didn't talk about who won the final championship at all, but kept the topic on the comparison between Jordan and Li Weisi.

"Groom, in your opinion, is Jordan better or Wester better?" Dick Stockton, who has commented too many finals games, is still partnering with Hubie Brown in this game, becoming the The commentary team for this year's finals.

In addition, a commentator was added this year, the legendary commentator Mav Albert.

As a famous NBC commentator, Marv Albert often commented on major events across the country, such as the Super Bowl, Stanley Cup finals, Wimbledon, and even explained horse racing with others from 91 to 96.

As for the NBA Finals, Albert once commented once in 94, and his commentary experience is extremely rich, so for Dick Stockton's question, Albert said decisively: "Dick, you are too bad, you This clearly wants me to be scolded!"

"You think too much groom, what bad thoughts can I have?" Although Stockton quibbled, the smile on the corner of his mouth had already betrayed him.

Now the entire NBA and even the entire basketball world, if you want to immediately cause discussion and tear, just like Stockton, just ask this question.

As long as this problem arises, whether it is in schools or factories, online or on the street, it is guaranteed to immediately trigger a massive confrontation. With the popularization of the Internet and the promotion of NBA globalization, this kind of competition between fans is comparable to the original The black and white duo is much more intense.

Therefore, for this question, Albert has no way to answer, no matter who the answer is, for example, it will cause another person's fans to condemn.

"Hahaha, anyway, in my opinion, they are all excellent basketball players, and I also believe that they can bring me a wonderful series." Albert answered this question in a gentle way. passed.

"The groom, who do you think will win this game?" At this moment, Brown, who had been silent on the side, suddenly asked Albert again.

"I... can only say that the Bulls, with their strength at home and a more complete lineup, have a greater advantage!" At this time, Albert had already discovered that the two commentators in front of him were not holding back any farts. To consume a large number of his brain cells.

For a while, Albert even began to suspect that it was a mistake to do the commentary for this year's finals by himself.

As for who wins and who loses, although it is difficult for the commentators to answer, most people can easily answer this question, even including most people in the Bulls locker room.

At this time, the home locker room of the United Center Arena was full of laughter and laughter, and there was no tension at all. If it weren't for the surrounding locker room environment, which outing group you said it was, I'm afraid there would be no sense of disobedience.

However, all the laughter and laughter came to an abrupt end as Jordan walked into the locker room.

I saw Jordan with a stinky face, looked around everyone in the locker room, and then said: "What are you all doing? Do you think you are sure to win? Don't forget what I told you at the end of the regular season, don't be complacent , If we can't win the championship, the record of 72 wins will become material for others to laugh at us, do you think the Warriors will give us the championship?"

Regarding Jordan's words, none of the teammates dared to say anything. Even Pippen, the team's second-in-command, had been reprimanded and grown up by Jordan since he entered the NBA. Let's talk about it after he retired.

Pippen didn't dare to say anything, and the others were even more afraid. The head coach Phil Jackson saw the atmosphere in the locker room and knew that Jordan had already beaten them, and the beating was almost done, so he stood up and sang a bad face, a bowl When the hot chicken soup was served, all the players felt as if they had been injected with chicken blood, wishing to tear up the opposing Warriors players.

Seeing this scene, although Jackson's face was calm, he was already happy in his heart. He adjusted the mentality of the players and made up for the last weakness of the team. The Bulls who were already stronger , Now that he has no weaknesses at all, how can he win me as a warrior?
Compared with the Bulls locker room, Jackson used Jordan to suppress his teammates to adjust his state, and in the Warriors locker room, Nelson used encouragement.

"In the first round against the Jazz, the media underestimated us, and then we won; in the second round against the Sonics, the media still underestimated us, and we won again; against the Rockets in the Western Conference Finals, the media still underestimated us, but we ended up Not only did we win, but we also won 4:1; now facing the Bulls, the media continues to belittle us, what do you think will happen?" Nelson asked with a smile.

"We can win!" Everyone said in unison.

"Very well, let's go! Go and win our victory!"
