Rebirth of Yidi Legend

Chapter 662

Regarding the declaration of war by the "Oklahoman", Yi Jianlian also accepted an interview the day before the game and was asked about his views on this matter.

"I think it's normal, it's a big thing for Oklahoma because it's their first time in the Finals, we all want our first round to be a good one, well, I'm just Speaking of the finals this time, there is no other meaning!"

Yi Jianlian expressed his understanding, but then he added another sentence: "However, I think the Oklahoman should be more aware of one thing...the New York Knicks are the defending champions, and we haven't lost yet." After one game, I think what they should do is to beat us for one game, which is their normal thinking, because from the perspective of the regular season, they are not much better than the Heat, I think Statistics we should all know, in the two games between the Heat and the Thunder, the Thunder ended in a complete loss!"

It's just understanding, but in Yi Jianlian's view, it is basically impossible for the Thunder to beat them, especially on the stage of the finals. In his opinion, these guys should consider how to win in the finals. Winning the next game in the final, instead of thinking about winning the entire series, is too difficult for them!
Naturally, these words were quickly reported, and the fans of the New York team naturally agreed with Yi Jianlian's words:

"You must know that we are the defending champions, and the Thunder just entered the finals for the first time. Just because they defeated the Grizzlies, they thought they could win the championship. This is too serious for the Grizzlies! You know, our regular season against the Grizzlies ended with a 2-0 record very easily, and what about them! Almost reversed, I really don’t understand what they think, they were almost reversed just now, and they won by luck After winning the game, I suddenly thought that I could win the finals, did I really think that the strength of the Grizzlies can compare with us?"

"The funniest joke I've heard this year is that the Thunder can win the championship if they enter the finals. Is it because the inherent impression that the West is strong and the East is weak over the years makes these guys a little confused? They should know this year's How good are the top four in the Eastern Conference? Seriously, as Yi Jianlian said, they should think about how to win the next game, not win the championship, and they are still some distance away from the championship!"

"I don't know what to say, but I think Yi is right. We are the defending champions. If you naively think that the defending champions are so easy to knock down, then come and try! But there is one thing that must be said first... Then don't cry!"

……

From the perspective of the fans of the New York team, the reason why these guys think that the Thunder will win the championship is that they finally defeated the Grizzlies, maybe plus a Kevin Durant 4 points in the seventh game. The sky-defying three-pointer ability at 30 seconds.

It's just that they completely forgot that they led the Grizzlies 3-1 at the beginning, but were pulled twice by their opponents, and more importantly, when the Grizzlies faced the Knicks, they were simply defeated The first to beat!

So fans of the New York Knicks really can't figure out why there are so many people supporting the Thunder!

Just because they were lucky enough to win the Grizzlies in the Western Conference Finals?

Can't figure it out, really can't figure it out!
Yi Jianlian also read these comments, and also liked some comments that were more objective and less emotional. To be honest, if the Grizzlies finally entered the finals, he might still be a little scared, because this team is really good. It was a counterattack all the way up, and relying on the power of this counterattack, they don't know what kind of energy they can explode in the finals, but in the end the Thunder team reached the finals, so he has nothing to be afraid of up!
The reason is also very simple. This Thunder team is really not their opponent. The reason is also very simple. Apart from the fact that this team is entering the finals for the first time, there is another point that they are overestimated!
In other words, they are not that strong!

Even though Kevin Durant has grown wildly compared to his original self, he has become even more powerful than him at the same time!

But you must know that the original 2011~2012 season, as I have said before, was a sluggish season in the Western Conference. There were more or less problems with the original power, including the Spurs. The original Spurs were not "hacked". Seven", they met the Thunder in the Western Conference Finals, and they were eventually eliminated by the Thunder. Before the game, everyone was not optimistic that the Thunder could knock down the Spurs, but it was precisely because they knocked down the Spurs , which makes them have a higher call to win the championship than the Heat before entering the finals.

But in fact, the problem of this team is really not ordinary!
Moreover, the Spurs team they met in the Western Conference Finals is undergoing a transformation. The "troika" is getting old. In addition to the shrinking season, the entire schedule has been played very hard. In the Western Conference Finals, when they have sufficient physical fitness, they can play against the Thunder. However, once their physical fitness fails, they will be overwhelmed by the active Thunder. It can be said that the Thunder defeated the Spurs by relying on their physical fitness. of!
From the point of view of the entire finals, the Thunder's general problem is the lack of experience in tough battles inside. After entering the big stage, Ibaka's performance was not outstanding. There were signs of this in the game, but they won in the end, so it was not magnified.

But this problem does exist!

The other problem lies with the Big Three. It must be said that the abilities of the "Thunder Thunder" are definitely enough, but the 2011~2012 season can only be regarded as the season of their official rise, not the peak season. It can be seen from the course of the game that James Harden was sleepwalking throughout the whole process. He has obviously just started to play some tricks, and he will stop when he encounters serious targets. Moreover, after entering the finals, he will have fewer whistles, which is good for him. Mentality is a test, and for Westbrook, this season is also not his peak season, he needs more large-scale games like the finals to accumulate experience in order to perform better.

And the original Durant will not reach his current state until the next two years!
The "Thunder Thunder" are not at their peak, and the inside players are completely incapable of performing well. It is no wonder that Yi Jianlian said that they were overestimated by the media.

At this time, although the Thunder team has Durant's change, the change is really not big. At least in Yi Jianlian's view, the gap with the original Thunder team is not very big!
Of course, a more important reason is that they eliminated the Heat 4-0, and they also played in the finals last season. Their experience and strength are stronger than that of the Heat in 2011~2012!
In Yi Jianlian's view, there is no way they would lose to the Thunder!
That's why he dared to speak like that!

However, if you know what you know, Yi Jianlian will still take the game seriously. Don't underestimate any opponent. For him, this is a sentence engraved in his mind. He doesn't want to be upset. It's really enough to be slapped in the face!

Yi Jianlian didn't like that feeling. He had already been slapped in the face because of Mike Reed. It took him two years until he won the championship to shut up those who mocked him. Don't want to go through that kind of thing again!

So if you know they can't do it, you know they can't do it. Yi Jianlian will definitely go all out on the field!

……

It's just that Yi Jianlian thinks so and it's useless, and the Thunder fans are all kinds of ridicule:

"Do you really think how good you are? If it wasn't for Lin, wouldn't you have already lost? Your luck is so good!"

"Your strength is actually the same. Everyone knows this. Just watch! The Thunder will definitely win the finals in the end!"

"I really don't know why I would say that as the core of the team, don't forget, we almost beat you in the regular season, but in a few rounds, we had some problems, which made us not beat you, but , After the baptism of the playoffs, I believe that we will definitely win the finals and win the championship trophy! But when the time comes, I will see what else you can say!"

The fans of the Thunder team mocked Yi Jianlian in various ways. Of course, this is also normal. For them, this is the first time in their team history that they reached the finals. This is a historic moment, and they will definitely make history. At the time, Yi Jianlian, the opponent, actually said that their goal should be to win only one game. How could this not make them angry!

The quarrel between the fans of both sides became louder and louder, which led ESPN to write an analysis about the two teams before the finals, drafted by the famous commentator West, one day before the finals:
"The New York Knicks have not lost before the Finals. They swept all the Eastern Conference teams with a 12-game winning streak, which gives them a psychological advantage in the next game. Of course, we have to If you don't admit it, this is an advantage, because it is rare to complete three rounds in the playoffs, which is enough to show how strong this team is!"

"Yi Jianlian, Dragic, David West, and other players make the New York Knicks look like they don't lack scoring points, but except for Yi Jianlian, none of them can provide for the team at critical moments. The team's scoring is a major hidden danger for the Heat. They need players other than Yi Jianlian to perform better at critical moments. However, two consecutive championships are a temptation for this team. It is also an honor that can encourage them to move forward, which will make them more aggressive in the following summary book. Of course, the only thing worth mentioning is that the Lakers in 01 were equally great, but They lost to the Philadelphia 76ers in the first game, and we have to say, this is a great belief in wanting to beat a strong enemy!"

"I don't know if the Thunder can complete this situation, but I have to say that the Thunder regained the feeling of winning after beating the Grizzlies in Game 01 of the Western Conference Finals. Their strong offensive firepower showed in the game." Undoubtedly, especially Kevin Durant, his performance is really great. If he maintains this performance, I think the Thunder will surprise the entire league, but I have to say that in the face of intensity At that time, they lacked a player who could share the pressure for Kevin Durant. Speaking of which, Westbrook, who has grown rapidly this season, is a good choice, but unfortunately, from his fifth and sixth games in the Western Conference Finals Judging from the performance on the field, if the situation is too bad, he will become the guy who needs to be rescued! Of course, they also have their own advantages. I have to say that the Thunder also have the ability to reproduce the 76ers in [-] .

It is worth mentioning that the Lakers back then were also on their way to two consecutive championships! "

"Actually, from my analysis, I can see that I am more inclined to the New York Knicks for the strength of the two teams, but I am very optimistic about the Thunder to complete some incredible performances. They also have such abilities! It's just specific What kind of situation it is, you will only know after the first game of the finals!"

In the article, West believes that the New York Knicks are the better team. He even described this team as the Lakers in 01. There are many reasons. With an undefeated record, the slightly different thing is that they swept the teams in the West, while the New York Knicks swept all the teams in the East.

"It's scary to think about it. This year's Eastern Conference semi-finals can be said to be the best Eastern Conference semi-finals in four years. They have an overwhelming advantage against the Western teams. This situation is the former Eastern Conference team. Incomparable! But the Knicks still completed the sweep, from this point of view, this team really has the feeling of the Lakers back then!"

And they are still on the way to the second championship.

Then he compared the Thunder to the 01ers in 76. At that time, this team gave the Lakers a resounding slap in the first game when they were not optimistic!

It is also Allen Iverson's Battle of the Conferred Gods!

However, West's article eventually attracted a lot of criticism from Thunder fans:
"Is this guy crazy about being popular? He actually compared us to the 01ers in 76. I can see that this guy is with the New York team. The Chinese guy said that our goal should be to win a team." game, he immediately compared us to the 76ers who ended up winning only one game, it's really disgusting!"

"Okay, very good, let's see! Who is the 76ers and who is the Lakers!"

"I don't agree with the point of view of this article, but one thing that the Thunder team is the same as that 76ers team is that we are bound to shock the entire league!"
