warrior godfather

At 2 minutes and 12 seconds into the fourth quarter, the Warriors still led by 17 points. With Green's slam, the basketball was knocked out of the boundary, and the Heat sent a sideline kick.

At this time, Spoelstra, who had been silent for the whole game, made his last adjustment of the game.

He finally stood up, called the five Heat bench players, and pointed to the field.

Both the fans at the scene and the audience watching the broadcast realized what he was going to do.

Curry waved his hands vigorously, arousing the emotions of the fans in the audience, with a bright smile on his face.

Clay clenched his fists and roared to the sky.

Green grinned and flexed his arms, flexing his biceps for the audience.

Butler and Leonard were relatively calm, but they also laughed happily.

Afterwards, they all looked to the sidelines, looking at Zhang Yu who got up, and the sound in the arena suddenly became louder, sending their warmest cheers before their hero left the court.

Everyone believed that Zhang Yu would also be replaced as a starter.

However, Zhang Yu just came to Chandler's side, looked at the veteran who had been resting for a long time, and said with a smile:
"Tyson, go, you should be on the court at this time."

Chandler got up slowly, handed the towel to the caddy, and grinned:
"Thank you, Ronan!"

Zhang Yu turned around and waved to Leonard. Leonard was taken aback, then he reacted, walked to the bench calmly, stretched out his right hand, and slapped Chandler hard.

"It's a shame, Kawhi, take a break first, there will be many more moments like this in the future." Zhang Yu and Leonard hugged each other and whispered in his ear.

Leonard nodded, with a smile on his face again, and returned to his seat.

"Claws! Claws!"

"Kawhi, you are the best!"

The Warriors fans immediately reacted and shouted Leonard's name. All the Warriors players were replaced, and only Leonard was replaced. To them, there was no difference.

And when Chandler came on, they started calling Chandler's name again.

Although the most dazzling in the finals is the death five, Warriors fans have not forgotten Chandler's great contribution to the team on the defensive end this season.

Surrounded by cheers, Chandler was very moved and waved his hands around, the smile on his face never stopped.

To be honest, being replaced by Zhang Yu at a critical moment, he could only watch the five dead boys show off their power on the court, and he also felt resentful in his heart.

But seeing that the Warriors fans still supported him as always, the dissatisfaction in Chandler's heart disappeared immediately.

The Warriors have won the championship, Zhang Yu has not forgotten his contribution, the fans have not forgotten his contribution, this is enough, can he still put his personal gains and losses above the team?
The Heat's substitutions were quick, but the Warriors' substitutions were very slow, but Foster did not intervene, just watched silently from the sidelines, and only handed the ball to the new replacement after Chandler came to the court James Jones, let him throw the throw-in.

For the rest of the time, neither side is in the mood to continue playing. Every offensive round of the Warriors will take 24 seconds to approach the time, and then shoot casually. The defensive end is only a symbolic defense. Points go by.

In the last 2 minutes, the Oracle Center fell into a carnival. There were no people sitting in the auditorium, and all the Warriors' benches stood up, waiting for the end of the game.

Zhang Yu was applauding gently all the time. He smiled and looked at the field, chatting with Cole next to him.

Next to them stood Larry Riley and Rick Wertz, who also left their seats toward the Warriors bench towards the end of the game.

Amidst the loud noise, Cole had to raise his volume:

"Ronan, joining the Warriors is the most correct decision for me. Thank you for giving me this opportunity. I have learned a lot. More importantly, the Warriors have proved that my basketball philosophy is correct. This championship is better than what I have won before. All champions are more important!"

Zhang Yu also said loudly:

"Steve, are you saying goodbye to me? Don't forget, there are still two years left in the contract you signed with the team!"

Cole laughed loudly and said:
"How is it possible! One year is too short, I still have a lot to learn, I want to win more championships with you!"

Rick Wirtz interjected:
"The new arena is about to be initially completed. There is still a year at most before the team can move in. Steve can't leave, at least he has to get another ring in the new arena!"

"Then aren't we going to build a dynasty?" Larry Riley laughed.

"Of course, we want to establish a dynasty belonging to the Warriors in the arena that belongs entirely to us!" Zhang Yu said.

As the Warriors' juggernauts looked to the future with great ambitions, the NBA's current juggernaut and the next juggernaut also came to the sidelines to prepare for the upcoming awards ceremony.

David Stern took a deep look at James, who was sitting on the Heat's bench with a gloomy face, snorted softly, then turned his head to look at Curry on the court, his face full of appreciation.

He saw Jordan's shadow in Curry.

That was David Stern's first year as the president of the league. At that time, the NBA was in a mess, and it was Jordan who turned out to save the NBA.

David Stern originally thought that James could become Jordan's successor and bring the league to a new level.

But he was wrong. James has been in the league for ten years, but he hasn't even won a championship. important threshold.

David Stern was completely disappointed with James. He was no longer young. The "little emperor" had not officially ascended the throne and was about to be replaced. From then on, it was impossible for the league to invest so much resources in James.

On the contrary, Curry is a rising supernova. Not long after entering the league, he conquered the league and fans with an unprecedented style of play.

Two consecutive MVPs and two consecutive championships are honors that can only be enjoyed by historical superstars. Curry achieved such an achievement in the first four years of his career. James is far behind, even more amazing than Jordan who just debuted.

More importantly, Curry's head coach is Zhang Yu, the only Chinese boss and head coach in the league, and has a natural bond with China.

In Curry, David Stern saw the last step of the NBA's globalization, and the time for the NBA to completely conquer the huge market across the ocean has arrived.

Beside him, Adam Silver looked at James with great disappointment, shook his head, and there was still a lot of doubt and incomprehension in his eyes.

He never thought that James would play like this today, with no fighting spirit on the court, no superstar demeanor at all, which made his long-awaited tiebreaker come to naught.

Maybe David is right, James' strength is really not good, it's time to change the appearance...

Adam Silver began to doubt the rhetoric of Nike's public relations. Is James really worthy of the league's continued support?
Durant may be a better choice. The combination of him and Westbrook is more passionate and dynamic than the Heat's aging Big Three.

Adam - Silver has not officially taken over David - Stern's position, but he has begun to plan the future pattern of the league.

……

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

With the passage of time, the game finally came to an end. I don't know who took the lead, and the Warriors fans began to count down in unison.

"...three, two, one—Yeah! We're the champions!!"

The red light came on and the game ended. The Warriors beat the Heat 104:90, winning 4:2, and successfully won the 2012-2013 NBA championship!
The Oracle Center was boiling, and cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami swept over, and there were golden oceans dancing in all directions.

The Warriors player who had the last shot had given up attacking long ago and just waited for the end of the game.

When the buzzer sounded the first long beep, Curry threw the ball into the sky vigorously and shouted to the sky. Others surrounded him. Together, jumping, yelling, yelling, I didn't know what I was yelling, but I yelled louder than anyone else.

Compared with the coaching staff and management, Zhang Yu, Cole, Larry Riley, and Rick Wirtz hugged each other and thanked them for their contributions to the team:

"Steve, thank you for your hard work this season. I have seen all your efforts. Without you, we would not have been able to create such a gorgeous offense."

Cole laughed:

"I will continue to work hard. Our passing and cutting system is not perfect yet. I will continue to tap the team's offensive potential!"

"Larry, we rely on you to operate our draft and trade. You are perfectly qualified for this job. In the next period of time, you need to pay more attention. Thank you for your hard work."

Larry Riley spread his hands:

"I'm just following your instructions, you are the irreplaceable soul of a warrior, but as long as you don't fire me, I will always be your tool man!"

"Rick, you owe a lot to the rapid progress in the construction of the new arena. This summer, the commercial value of the team will continue to rise, and there will definitely be a lot of business operations and activities. All these tasks are entrusted to you."

Rick Wirtz laughed:
"Ronan, the money you invest is the most important thing. I just completed some trivial coordination work. Now that the project of the new arena is on the right track, I can just devote myself to the new work, so leave it to me Bar!"

Subsequently, Zhang Yu walked to the Heat's bench, where Spoelstra was waiting for him.

The two shook hands, and Spoelstra was about to turn around and leave. Zhang Yu said:
"Eric, you actually have a chance to win, this time it's not your fault."

Spoelstra paused, smiled wryly, turned and left without saying anything.

Zhang Yu looked at his lonely back and shook his head.

As a head coach, you are often involuntary, especially when you are coaching a superstar, not to mention that Spoelstra is still coaching James...

Many people say that James is the most versatile player, because he can play from the first position to the general manager, this is not groundless.

That is to say, the Heat and Pat Riley can check and balance him. When he was in the Cavaliers, James was a veritable "emperor" and controlled everything about the Cavaliers.

Fortunately, Zhang Yu will never encounter Spoelstra's problems. He is the one who controls everything for the Warriors, and Curry is by no means a restless superstar like James.

Zhang Yu came to the field and hugged the players one by one. The Warriors players were very excited and said something to him, but in the extremely noisy environment, Zhang Yu couldn't hear clearly at all, so he could only reply loudly:
"You are all amazing! I love you! You are true warriors..."

Curry was surrounded in the middle, and Zhang Yu was the last to hug him. Curry almost stuck to Zhang Yu's ear and shouted:

"Boss, we won! We are champions!"

"Yes, we won, Stephen, you are the best!" Zhang Yu replied.

In fact, he still didn't hear what Curry was saying, because when Curry was talking, a bunch of Warriors players gathered around the two of them, and they kept booing.

But Zhang Yu knew that Curry must have said this sentence, and he also gave the same answer as he had done countless times before.

After parting, Zhang Yu and Curry laughed in unison.

At this time, colorful firework ribbons fell from the top of the arena, and they fell on the heads and shoulders of everyone, and fell on the floor of the court. In the golden sea, a gorgeous island was piled up.

On the other side of the court, Heat players quietly left the arena that made them sad twice.

James left long ago, walking into the tunnel before the game was over.

Maybe he doesn't want to face his fourth runner-up. He is a frequent visitor to this stage, but every time he leaves as a loser. No one knows when he will be able to stand in the center of this stage and receive the cheers and worship.

However, no one will focus on the loser at this time.

James' departure did not even attract the commentator's attention, Yu Jia said:

"Congratulations to the Golden State Warriors for successfully defending their title and winning the NBA 2012-2013 season championship! They will win their fifth championship trophy at home! The head coach of the Warriors, Zhang Yu, has also become the only one who led his team to win two championships The head coach of Huaxia; Yi Jianlian also officially surpassed Sun Yue and Ba Xinghao to become the only Chinese player to win two NBA championships!"

Zhang Weiping said:
"The Warriors are amazing. They successfully defended the title. The core lineup is still so young. They have great hope for three consecutive championships. Who would have thought that the Warriors were the bottom team in the league a few years ago? Zhang Yu is both the owner and the head coach. Great, the Warriors can be today, thanks to him!"

Yang Yi said:

"Director Zhang is right. The reason why the Warriors are what they are today is because of Zhang Yu's discerning eye. He has selected so many good players, formed such a lineup, and developed tactics like the dead five, especially when he discovered Curry. An unprecedented superstar, if there is no Zhang Yu, the Warriors will not be able to talk about the championship, even the playoffs!"
