Chapter 649 The upcoming finals
David Stern stared at Bruce with a complicated expression, and then he subconsciously glanced at the Lakers who left the arena sadly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart!
A wonderful performance made the Warriors let everyone see their powerful ability and hunger for the championship!
In this series, the performance of the Warriors is undoubtedly excellent. Of course, as another team that is extremely optimistic about the Lakers, if it is not for personal reasons, I am afraid that they will not be able to say for sure in the end. The team that entered the championship!
"NBA03-04 season is a great season, now, let us cheer for the Western Conference champion, the Warriors!!"
Stern slowly handed over the Western Conference Championship trophy to Bruce, who was wearing a baseball cap. The smile on his face, in Bruce's view, really seemed a little bit of embarrassment and helplessness!
Of course, he doesn't consider the opponent's feelings now. What he has to do now is to be excited and excited for the Warriors to win the Western Conference championship again!
A grand celebration ceremony was held at the home court of the Warriors the next day. During this celebration, not only the arena was filled with a large number of fans, but the appearance of some Hollywood stars also made this celebration Has a very good performance.
As the Warriors finally broke into the finals, the contest between the Pistons and the Pacers has entered a fever!
Because the Warriors defeated the Lakers 4:1, they will have at least five days to adjust their state!
Among them, because both teams have very strong performances on the defensive end, their scores are destined not to be too high!
Of course, judging from the current 3:2 score of the Pistons, if the Pacers can't win at home, I'm afraid they will make everyone feel regretful!
The start time of this year's championship is still the same as in previous years. The league has set the start date of the finals on June 6th!
In the previous few days, as the Pistons finally defeated the Pacers with a score of 4:2 and entered the finals with a super defense, this made Detroit, the iron-blooded city, like boiling magma. Looking forward to it with excitement!
Before, the "Bad Boys" gradually faded away, and the Pistons broke into the finals again, which really excited the fans in this city!
On June 6th, when the Pistons players arrived in Oakland with a strong fighting spirit by plane, they were surrounded by a large number of media as soon as they appeared at the airport!
In all the games this year, the Pistons seem to have suddenly transformed into a super team under the guidance of Larry Brown!
Their performance on the defensive end can be described as suffocating!
In this team, they not only have the All-Star player Rasheed Wallace, but also have very good players in the front line and the backcourt!
This season, even though Rasheed Wallace's data seems a bit low, what he brings to this team is not only the firepower on the offensive end and the toughness on the defensive end, what he brings is Strong passion and sturdy work style!
The Pistons team has a very strong history, such as their reputable "Bad Boys Corps". Under the influence of Detroit's fans who are mainly blue-collar workers, this team has gradually become an extremely iron-blooded team. team!
Under such circumstances, what Wilkens is worried about is the strong defense and some helpless small moves from the Pistons.
In Bruce's office, both Wilkens and West looked at Bruce helplessly. Even this guy couldn't provide any good strategies, but after all, the other party is the owner of this team!
"Gentlemen, is it too early to worry now?? Shouldn't you choose to trust your players??"
Bruce looked at the two dumbfounded. After all, the current Pistons are not the powerful team in the previous life!
"Well, although I have great confidence in them, in my opinion, we must at least keep ourselves safe from injuries!"
West spread his hands and said helplessly!
"Hehe, if it were me, I would quickly go back to the training hall and specifically tell Tim and the others so that they will suffer some invisible injuries in tomorrow's game!"
Bruce stood up with a smile, then made an inviting gesture, and walked out of the office first!
In the training hall, all the players of the Warriors are doing some running training without the ball, and their expressions are extraordinarily serious!
After that, with Duncan's shout, the players stopped their actions one after another!
"Guys, tomorrow's game will be a difficult game, especially when the opponent's defense is very strong, I hope the brothers can be in the best state for this game and the whole series!"
Duncan said to his teammates with a serious expression, watching their expressions gradually becoming more and more cautious, and when he was relieved in his heart, he continued: "In tomorrow's game, we will prepare according to Lenny's requirements, especially the offensive I hope we can play the best form and defend the championship with our strongest performance!!"
"good!!"
Payton immediately took over the conversation. He looked at his teammates one by one. When he saw Malone, his eyes flashed, and he said firmly: "As a veteran, my wish is Get at least one championship ring, no matter how you look at us, I hope the brothers can treat us with their best state!"
Hearing Payton's words, Malone stood directly beside him, turned his head to look at the rest of his teammates, with inexplicable excitement on his face, and suddenly said loudly: "Why don't we let us create our own dynasty??"
On June 6, when players from both sides appeared outside the arena, amidst the shouts of a large number of fans, their bus slowly drove into the underground parking lot in the arena!
Bruce and West sat in the stands early, watching the replay of the highlights after the Warriors won the championship for the first time last year. Their eyes showed a trace of excitement and anticipation!
As a team that won the championship again after many years, the Warriors have a large number of talented players, whether they can create their dynasty, this topic is always discussed by the media in the league!
Now, with the Warriors once again entering the finals, their calls to win the championship have risen again, and no one doubts whether they will successfully defend their title!
"This year, if we defend the title this year, I think next year we will definitely be challenged from all over the league."
Suddenly, Bruce seemed to be saying something very serious, his tone full of affirmation!
"That's right!!"
As an old man in the league, when the Lakers created a dynasty before, they were indeed as Bruce said. When they defended their title for the second time, they were indeed challenged by the entire league. One of the problems with injuries!
In the NBA, whenever a team is about to show signs of a dynasty, the rest of the teams will definitely launch crazy challenges to that team in their third year!
Among them, especially some teams that have the ability to win the championship and have been successfully rebuilt, and have a high probability of winning the championship, they will directly transform into a strong team, using their strongest combat power to target each team. A race against the champion!
Just like now, when no one is optimistic that the Pistons will win the final championship, the league already has some undercurrents. After the Warriors win the championship, something that will shock everyone will happen !
"If my sources are right, there will be at least two seismic deals this summer!"
After a while, West said to Bruce with a solemn face, thinking of some news he had received before, his face was full of worry!
"Oh?? What news??"
Bruce asked secretly with a hint of excitement in his heart. West's words not only reminded him of the explosive transactions that happened in succession this summer in his previous life!
"After the Magic recruited Tracy and Grant to the team, they did not meet the team's expectations, and they could even be described as a disaster. This is the first time they have been so exciting after losing Shaquille. !"
West spoke slowly with regret on his face, then changed the subject, and said with clear regret on his face: "If Grant can maintain his health, they will become one of the strongest teams in the league. But.."
Regarding West's words, Bruce is very aware of the power of them!
As the owner of a team, Bruce not only has to consider the equipment of the team lineup, but also has a series of plans and arrangements for the operation of the team!
Just like the current Magic team, if it weren't for the top salaries of McGrady and Hill, the Magic team would at least keep some good players in the team!
Take a look, their current lineup, except Tracy McGrady and Juwan Howard, the rest of the players are either some pure marginal players, or some rookies who can only grow up in a few years!
With such a team composed of these players, it's a lie that McGrady doesn't want to escape here!
With the league's top salary, but watching players in the same class as him achieve very enviable achievements year after year, this really brings continuous troubles to McGrady!
"So, which team do you think can accept Tracy??"
Bruce asked extremely curiously, he really wanted to know which team West would name!
"Haha, if possible, I think the Lakers will be willing to make some trades with them. After all, Tracy was a small forward who played for a long time before!"
West said with a look of longing, and then he didn't know what to think of, as if this transaction would be very likely to happen, he continued: "If the Lakers can bring Tracy into the team, then their lineup in the backcourt It's going to be shocking!"
Bruce stared blankly at West. Even though he was very clear about McGrady's final destination, after listening to his words, this kind of transaction negotiation is really possible. After all, with his own rebirth, all of this will appear Unpredictable!
