Chapter 748 The media battle before the finals

The NBA playoffs of the 2013-2014 season have finally come to the most eye-catching finals!

The two sides who are about to face off in the finals are the defending champion San Antonio Spurs and the previous year's champion Miami Heat!

If a friend hasn't watched the NBA for a year, if he watches the finals again now, he will definitely wonder if time has not passed. Why are the two teams exactly the same as last year?

For this year's finals, the league has introduced new rules. The format of the finals has changed from the previous "2-3-2" to "2-2-1-1-1". The away game was cancelled, which is not good news for teams with poor regular season results.

In the original "2-3-2" competition system, if the pair with poor performance in the regular season can win a game in the first two games, then they can use three consecutive home games to send their opponents home directly. When the time comes, the advantage of the home field will be more obvious.

But now, the competition system has changed, and there are no three consecutive home games. For teams with poor regular season results, this is obviously not a good thing.

It doesn't matter to the Spurs, anyway, they are number one in the regular season, and they can still take advantage of this change in the competition system, so they are naturally happy to see the results.

It's different for the Heat. They were at a disadvantage in terms of record, but now that the competition system has changed, they will suffer even more.

"No matter how the competition system changes, I believe our team will win the final victory, and my teammates and I will do our best to win. Although this process may become difficult, I believe we will succeed!"

When James was interviewed by reporters, he answered his views on the change of the competition system in very official words.

"LeBron, do you have confidence in this year's finals? Or, is the team the best prepared to compete for the championship?" The local reporters in Miami generally ask a little more reservedly, but now it's time to It's the finals, so I really need to ask a more straightforward question.

"I don't think we are fully in the state of competing for the championship now, because the finals have not yet started, and we can only be said to be fully in that state when it starts."

This time James answered first with a restraint and then with a rise. He has already practiced this trick of dealing with reporters, and he can completely form his own school.

"But I like it very much and I am very satisfied with the way the team is now. I believe that in the finals, we will perform better. Now we can do better on both offense and defense."

Listen, listen, this bragging doesn't feel too much at all, and it makes people feel very humble, really like an emperor.

Well, anyway, the media friends in Miami put James into the so-called restoration of the emperor. Under their leadership, last year's Spurs were so evil and evil, especially the kid from the East. The culprit of the Spurs' open rebellion!
This year, the Miami media all hope that the team can win. Only in this way can James stay in the team this year.

Otherwise, the Heat's Big Three will definitely break up this summer!

Compared with Miami, San Antonio is much calmer about the finals. Presumably, there are more finals and more championships. Would you like it? The Holy City media has some inexplicable confidence in the team.

In their view, the team's victory this year is like this: Qin Yan broke out and the Spurs won; Leonard broke out and the Spurs won; Whiteside broke out and the Spurs won, and finally GDP ended the game. The Spurs win again!

Well, we have won four games, we can directly distribute the trophies and start the parade.

Look, what is domineering, this is domineering, straightforward, not procrastinating at all, what about "The Emperor's Revenge", those people in Miami like to play tricks, and they have no sincerity at all.

Of course, the media on both sides took the lead in starting the public opinion war. Miami's style is gorgeous, piling up articles with all kinds of gorgeous words, just like the luxurious Big Three lineup of the Heat.

San Antonio's side is naturally very plain and wordless, just like the team's style of play for many years. If it weren't for the fear of being slapped in the face, the media in the Holy City would have swept it with plain words.

What's the use of writing so much?Flashy, the strength of the two teams is there, and they should win or win.That's what Al-Quds media says about their Miami counterparts.

Of course, the media people in Miami quit, and they also fought back one after another. Regarding the articles of the media in the holy city, they also commented such as uneducated, vulgar, and barbaric. With this level of writing, how dare you be a media person?

In fact, Miami's evaluation is not very accurate.Do you really think that the media in the Holy City is uneducated?wrong!Big mistake!
Originally, the media in the holy city also planned to write a gorgeous script for the Spurs. After all, people rely on clothes and horses, and packaging is very important.

But it's helpless, my team doesn't cooperate, they have nothing to write about!

When the GDP trio were interviewed by reporters, they were very low-key. They said that they would not think about the championship now. The most important thing is to play well. Not sure.

Seeing that they couldn't hear anything useful from these three people, the media immediately changed their goal and asked other members of the team, hoping to get some useful information so that they could pack up the team.

The results of it?The entire Spurs team seems to have a unified caliber. No matter who you interview, you will get the same answer. There is no exciting or exciting news at all, which makes the media in the Holy City very sad.

God, what can I write about this kind of interview materials?
In desperation, they also gave up the idea of ​​telling stories in the competition with their counterparts in Miami. After taking a few photos of the team's training, the Holy City Media carried forward the spirit of "two pictures at the beginning, and the rest depends on making up". , wrote the above "plain and simple" interview news.

If the Spurs know that because of their deliberate low-key, the Al-Quds media has been labeled as "uncultured", I don't know if they will feel ashamed.

Hmm... Judging from objective reality, obviously not.

In the pre-match media battle between the two cities, the opening day of the finals finally came.

All members of Miami boarded a chartered flight, and tens of thousands of fans came to see them off at the airport!

"Miami must win!"

"Heat Champion!"

……

"LeBron, we will win, right?" Wade looked at the fans outside through the glass of the plane, suddenly feeling very emotional, he turned his head and asked James beside him.

James also turned his head to look at Wade. The moment the two looked at each other, they seemed to be ready to see the thoughts hidden deep in their hearts from each other's eyes.

"Well, I will win." After a while, James looked away as if evading, and replied lightly.

Wade also turned his head to the side, the battle is approaching, at this time, the heart can not be confused.

However, after he turned his head, he was still muttering in a low voice:
"Really? Will win..."
