Chapter 269 The Future Is Mine (6300 word chapter)
In the 07-08 season, after the Lakers lost to the Celtics in the finals, Kobe Bryant said at the end of the finals:
"No. 2 means you are the number one loser."

Wen Wu is the first, and Wu Wu is the second. In competitive sports, the second place will be forgotten most of the time. At most, when you turn over old accounts, come to a sentence if XXX
In the NBA, the "what if" theory only exists in the mouths of fans. When it comes to historical rankings, if there is no solid honor, no championship, hitting the top 10 in history, it is probably a dream.

After all, the first few bigwigs are too legendary, and if you want to surpass the old predecessors, you can't rely on Excel alone.

On the morning of the 21st, in the Heat training class, although the head coach Spoelstra has been encouraging the players not to give up these days, the words of deja vu reminded everyone in the Heat team of last year's finals.

A year later, the situation does not seem to have changed. Wade made a sacrifice and gave his horse to his good brother James, but the final results showed that even if he gave up the boss position, the championship was still out of reach.

Chris Bosh once again recalled the picture of himself crying bitterly after the finals last year. The data has shrunk severely, and the fans have been madly complaining about it in the past year. Bosh feels that he has sacrificed enough.

LeBron James has no expression on his face. He has worked very hard throughout the season. Even when he hits the 4th position or even the 5th position, he will not complain. He wants to win the championship as the team leader too much .

The Heat's atmosphere team was not in the mood to talk, although in theory the Heat still have a chance, coach Spoelstra reminded them that history is made by people.

But 1:3 behind, the home performance was excellent and still lost, which made the atmosphere team feel that the team is no longer good, there is no money, no honor, and some are just wanton ridicule from the fans.
Breaking the defense, this is the truest portrayal of everyone in the Heat.

The fans of the Cavaliers have already celebrated the Chinese New Year. In the past two days, they have been jumping up and down on social media, taunting LeBron James crazily. This is the result of betraying his hometown. James will never win the championship!
That night, the NBA had already sent the O'Brien Cup to Miami. In the American Airlines Arena, the awarding process was rehearsed for the past two days. The G5 game has not yet started, and the league seems to have confirmed that the Heat will lose.

The Heat fans who bought tickets early felt a little regretful. It was enough to see other teams win the championship at their home court. Most people were not in the mood to see the Thunder win the championship again.

After the game started, the Heat fans on the scene were a little bit down. Except for a few Thunder fans who were excited and shouting, most of the fans were silently watching the game.

The shooting touch of the role players has returned to the normal level again, whether it is the starter Battier, or the Mike Miller who came off the bench, and James Jones all hit the iron outside.

Although the Big Three played well, LeBron James, 9 of 6 in the half, scored 15 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, Bosh and Wade were 6 of 4, scoring 10 points and 9 points efficiently.

But at this time the score on the court was 59:50, and the Thunder easily led by 9 points.

The hearts of the people were scattered, and the team was not easy to lead. During the intermission, the head coach Spoelstra was numb. Seeing the dull locker room, the entire coaching staff didn't have the heart to say anything more.

While the Thunder was in the locker room, Durant silently calculated the average points per game, but after doing the calculations, he found that unless he scored 40+ in this game, he would not be able to compare with Li Ze in terms of statistics. of.
"It seems that the Heat are no longer in the mood to play. To be honest, in the past two days, many sports media have been ridiculing. LeBron James' decision has been reviewed again. I understand the other party's mood."

Guigui doesn't pay much attention to the news on Twitter, but TNT, who likes to make troubles in the past two days, revisited the talent stalk, and was even cynical about the Heat's performance. Such a public opinion environment made Guigui sympathize with the opponent.

"This is all caused by LeBron James himself. I still can't understand the other party's decision. The Heat did not plan to pay too much luxury tax. All three of them cut their salaries. This is really crazy."

Durant put away the small calculations in his heart, and immediately mocked the brother basketball of the Heat team when he heard Guigui's words.

"Insist on halftime and then open champagne. It's not time to relax. Of course, we can indeed prepare acceptance speeches in advance. This thing will definitely be used."

Hearing that his teammates were talking more and more sideways, Li Ze quickly reminded him that the game is not over yet, and the difference of 9 points is not much.

"Kayce should be able to get his second FMVP. He achieved such an achievement when he was less than 2 years old. I think such a record will be difficult to break in the future."

"It's a pity that I failed to enter the best defensive team this season. If I get a Dpoy in the future and enter the first defense team, the honor will be a grand slam!"

"How can there be a Grand Slam, the Most Improved Player Award, the Best Sixth Man award, maybe Kayce won't get it in his life, his strength doesn't allow it!"

When Durant heard the atmosphere team chattering about Li Ze's current awards, he was immediately possessed by lemon essence, and his heart was sour.
In the second half of the game, the Big Three of the Heat continued to fight, but the inaccuracy of the role players made it difficult for the team to respond from the outside.

The Thunder's defense returned to the zone defense. LeBron James continued to break through the tank and distribute the ball to the outside. The Heat fired frequently from the flanks and corners.

The Heat fans at the scene saw the Thunder's transitional offense wave after wave, completely lost their emotions. In the entire American Airlines Arena, only the DJ was still shouting.

"If the Heat win the game in G4, maybe tonight's situation will be completely different. The role players have played well enough. Compared with the Thunder, James and Wade's styles of play have not complemented each other."

In the commentary booth of ABC, Jeff Van Gundy also began to chat about things off the court. The commentator Mike Breen introduced the situation on the court and asked questions curiously:

"This offseason, how should the Heat strengthen? Many teams may have to make big moves this year."

Hearing the inquiry, Jeff Van Gundy immediately gave his opinion with a smile:
"With LeBron James as the core, the Heat also need to supplement high-quality shooters, and at the same time, they should also supplement a frame-protecting center inside."

"Chris Bosh is not suitable to play the 5th position. As long as the reinforcement is reasonable, the Heat will still be a strong contender for the championship next season."

When the two were gossiping, Chris Bosh, who was playing outside the cover, received a pass from James outside the three-point line. With no defense, he quickly shot a jumper at the top of the arc.

"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly.

Bosh did not celebrate too much, and the Heat fans at the scene were not excited. The point difference is still 9 points, which feels too bad.

The Thunder quickly sent out the baseline ball. After the turtle dribbled through the half court, they also did not play nonsense. They called Li Ze a low-post tactic, and then signaled his teammates to clear the side.

Tonight, Wade is still working very hard on the defensive end. Seeing Li Ze turn his back to ask for the ball, he immediately wanted to half-circle to the front to defend. In the next second, he was stuck behind him.

After successfully receiving the pass from the tortoise, Li Ze leaned back, released the ball with his right hand, and hit it twice.

Noticing that Chalmers, who was on the line, seemed to want to double-team the defense, at the moment the opponent moved, he immediately turned back quickly with his right foot as the axis, and easily shot a backward jumper!

"Kayce Fade away! That's good!"

The commentator Mike Brin's tone was no longer passionate, but the Miami fans at the scene broke out with huge boos. Obviously, Li Ze has become the number one public enemy of the Heat.

Coach Brooks sitting on the bench saw Li Ze score a goal, stood up with a smile on his face, and signaled his players to continue defending.

In the rest of the third quarter, Durant was full of motivation, actively asking for the ball on the court, and scoring consecutive points. Turtle saw Durant playing one, and immediately played Li Ze's tactics in the next round.

During the break, Durant glanced at Li Ze's technical statistics, and couldn't help but twitch his lips. He scored 24 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, only 2 points behind him.
With 2 minutes and 58 seconds left in the game, coach Spoelstra felt extremely bitter, replaced the main lineup, and completely surrendered.

LeBron James returned to the bench with a blank expression. No one could guess what James was thinking at this time.

Chris Bosh covered his head with a towel and didn't want others to see his expression. Wade just watched the players on both sides continue to score points on the field, as if he couldn't believe that he lost to the same opponent again this year .

When the final buzzer sounded, the score was fixed at 113:104, without any suspense, the big score was 4:1, and the Thunder Gentlemen swept the Heat!
Everyone in the Heat team saw the excitement on the Thunder bench, and suddenly felt sour. Li Ze smiled and hugged everyone. Soon, Wade appeared in front of Li Ze.

The two simply bumped their fists, and then hugged in greeting. Wade was not in a high mood, but simply sent his blessings:

"Congrats, Bro! You guys are the better team!"

"Come on, Bro! You are the strongest opponent I have encountered in the past two years. I hope to have the opportunity to continue fighting in the future."

When Wade heard Li Ze's words, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, he controlled his facial expressions, finished the business exchange, and then left.

The cameras at the scene followed Li Ze all the time, and the media reporters from Amerika were a little disappointed when they saw LeBron James calmly wishing everyone on the Thunder team.

Chris Bosh also successfully controlled his emotions and sent simple blessings to everyone in the Thunder team, but when he walked to the player channel, Bosh still covered his head with a towel
The podium was built step by step. Such a scene made the Heat fans on the scene very painful. It was no different from last year. Once again, they witnessed the opponent receiving the award at the door of their house, which made many spectators leave the field early.

The finals FMVP voting is also going on simultaneously. In the G5 game, Li Ze made 20 of 10, including 8 of 3 three-pointers, 8 of 7 free throws, 30 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 turnover. Next, the data is very beautiful.

5场比赛下来,场均32.0分5.6篮板4.0助攻1.4抢断0.6盖帽1.8失误,投篮命中率52.8%,三分球命中率45.3%,罚球命中率92.2%。

The standard 180 club data, but when the ball critics saw Durant's data, they were also very surprised.

场均28.6分6.0篮板2.2次助攻1.4次抢断2.6失误,投篮命中率54.8%、三分命中率39.4%,罚球命中率88.6%。

Several ball commentators saw the data of the two, and felt that the Heat had lost unjustly. As for who to vote for, there was also no suspense.

Li Ze leads all the players in the two teams in scoring and efficiency, plus the age bonus, this gimmick will not be missed by the league. Exaggerated records can attract more fans. The star-making movement cannot stop!

Everyone in the Thunder team happily changed into the championship T-shirts, and the team's staff also flew from Oklahoma City to Miami. However, compared to the team's first championship, although owner Bennett was happy, he was very bitter in his heart.

The general manager Presti didn't think about other things at this time, and warmly hugged every player. Everyone was no stranger to the championship award ceremony, and returned to the center of the field laughing.

The host of ESPN stood on the podium and sent his blessings with a smile:

"I am very glad to see the young lads standing here again this year, and thank both sides for their wonderful finals for the fans!"

President David Stern is also very happy. Although the ratings of G5 are a bit low, generally speaking, after the finals, there will definitely be new leeks.

Seeing the host handing him the microphone, Mr. President, who was in a good mood, immediately smiled and said:
"Thank you! Thanks again to the enthusiastic fans in the two cities. At the same time, on behalf of the league, I would also like to thank Oklahoma City and Miami City Hall for their full cooperation."

"This is a very difficult season. I am honored to see Oklahoma City win the championship again. The regular season is 56 wins and 10 losses, the playoffs are 12 wins and 1 loss, and the finals are 4 wins and 1 loss. The young boys are fulfilling their goals. talent!"

"I am very honored to announce that the 2011~2012 season champion is the Oklahoma City Thunder! Let us once again congratulate the young lads!"

Seeing the familiar golden spherical trophy, everyone in the Thunder team shouted excitedly. Everyone didn't steal the show and signaled Li Ze to be the first to win the trophy.

When Li Ze held up the golden spherical trophy with a smile on his face, everyone on the Thunder team happily raised their hands and cheered loudly:
"Oh!"

The American Airlines Arena remembered the sparse applause, and the host of ESPN began to briefly interview the owner Bennett and the head coach Brooks:
"Unbelievable, I'm so proud of the boys, I'm so proud of my hometown of Oklahoma City, two consecutive championships, great achievement, I want to thank all the fans who care about the Thunder, you are the best!"

Boss Bennett was very excited during the interview. At this moment, he also forgot the pressure on the salary cap.

Moving from Seattle to Oklahoma City, he was under tremendous pressure from public opinion.But after winning two championships, the Thunder has surpassed the Sonics in the number of championships.

"Brooks, led a young team to the finals for two consecutive years and won the championship. We all want to hear your thoughts!"

"I would like to thank the Thunder for the lumberjack, my coaching staff, and my players"

Head coach Brooks still spoke as a good guy, and praised every player in the team. Everyone in the Thunder team was taking turns touching the trophy.

The newcomer Marshan Brooks is even more smiling. He won the championship in the first year of his career. What is a winner in life!
When the slightly smaller golden FMVP trophy came to the awarding table, Durant stared straight at it, while Guigui stood beside Li Ze and started booing, and everyone in Thunderclap screamed.

President David Stern smiled slightly, looked around at everyone present, and raised his voice again:

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Mr. Bill Russell, the 11th championship winner in NBA history and the legend of the Celtics. Let us pay tribute to the legend!"

"21 years and 271 days old, I am very happy to witness history again. I am very honored to announce that the winner of the Bill Russell Cup in the 2011~2012 season finals is Kayce-LI!"

Watching Bill Russell hand over the small golden spherical trophy to Li Ze, Durant suddenly picked up lemons in his heart, so sour!Sour!His stats are clearly enough to win prizes
"Amazing achievement, I am very glad to continue to present awards to you this year, come on, Kayce, I hope I can see you in the finals in the future!"

Bill Russell handed over the trophy and sent blessings along the way. The old man is in good health and applauded Li Ze by the way.

"Thank you for your blessing, I will continue to work hard!"

Looking at the small trophy in his hand, Li Ze smiled slightly, and then raised the trophy with one hand to facilitate the surrounding media reporters to take pictures. There was also a lot of cheers in the American Airlines Arena, and many Chinese fans stayed at the scene.

"20 years and 258 days, 21 years and 271 days, it's unbelievable. Kayce successfully broke the record held by Magic Johnson. At this moment, how do you feel?"

Hearing the host's question, Li Ze replied with a smile:
"Awards and records belong to the Thunder. Thanks to my teammates and the coaching staff, and to the enthusiastic Oklahoma City fans. We will continue to chase the championship. The future belongs to us!"

"Oh!"

The tortoise bounced around and led the teammates to scream, the future belongs to them. Although Durant was possessed by lemon essence, he appeared very humble when interviewed on the spot, and he also imagined the future by the way. consecutive championships!
Everyone in the Thunder team began to take out their mobile phones and took pictures with the trophy. In the final group photo, Li Ze was sitting in seat C smiling again. Durant and Guigui on the left and right smiled and raised two fingers.

The team's staff and other teammates formed a circle, with David Stern and Bill Russell standing on the left, and Brooks' coach and owner Bennett on the right.

Two consecutive championships, a great achievement, everyone has a smile on their faces, enjoying the moment is the most important thing!
The locker room of the visiting team at the American Airlines Arena was once again filled with the smell of champagne, smiling after winning the game, and everyone on the Thunder team was celebrating crazily.

After winning the award, of course you have to share it with others. With two trophies, Li Ze posed several poses in the visiting team's locker room, so that when he returned to Oklahoma City, he would be able to post his Instagram outfit X, which is great for advertising opportunity!
After losing to MMP, everyone in the Heat felt uncomfortable when they thought that their opponent was celebrating with champagne.

In the press conference after the game, both Wade and Bosh seemed a little silent, but LeBron James answered questions calmly and continuously:

"Losing to the same opponent two years in a row, LeBron, do you think the team's championship window has closed?"

Hearing the ESPN reporter's question, LeBron James in a gray suit picked up the microphone and said calmly:
"Of course not. We will continue to chase the championship and lose to our opponents for two consecutive years, which shows that the team still has a lot to improve. Basketball is played by five people. During the offseason, we will make adjustments."

"Compared with the Thunder, we need shooters and big men. I believe the management has seen the flaws in the lineup. During the offseason, I will cooperate with the team to recruit some players. Next season, we are still a strong contender for the championship. By."

Compared with last year when he broke the defense and came to a warning of unsatisfactory life, this year's LeBron James is more mature.

Of course, it could also be an infusion of hemp, but in the face of the reporter's difficult questions, the answer of the Chosen One was impeccable.

Of course, the championship team's post-match press conference was peaceful, and the bragging was over. The trio wore championship T-shirts, and two trophies were placed on the table.

But in the end, the TNT reporter's inquiry instantly ruined the good mood of the three:
"Kayce, we have received news that you have not yet reached an early contract extension agreement with the Thunder. Does this mean that you will leave Oklahoma City this offseason?"

Li Ze cursed secretly when he heard such a question, but he still smiled on the surface:

"I'm glad that everyone is concerned about my contract, but what I want to say is that there is one year left on my rookie contract. As for the team's choice, I have no right to interfere."

"I have been very happy in Oklahoma City for the past three years. There are the best fans in the league here, and there are teammates who support me here. As for the contract issue, time will give an answer."

Seeing some reporters asking questions about the contract, Guigui on the side was not happy, and immediately said into the microphone:

"Next question!"

On the other side of the ocean, after the final awards ceremony was broadcast on CCTV Sports, Li Ze’s fans fell into a state of carnival, while James’s crazily complained about the Heat’s management
Go to the Hupu forum, the top news post is that Li Ze once again broke the record of the youngest FMVP in the finals created by Magic Johnson.

魔术师约翰逊分别于1979-80赛季(20岁276天)和1981-82赛季(22岁298天)帮助湖人队获得总冠军兼FMVP。

李泽在2010~2011赛季(20岁258天)和2011~2012赛季(21岁271天)带领雷霆队拿到总冠军获得FMVP。

This time it was really unprecedented. On that day, Hupu completely turned into Zepu, and it was over!

"No.1 in the league! There is no suspense that it is Li Ze. He is so awesome. He averaged 32 points per game in the finals, and the 180 club. Who else is not convinced?"

"Three consecutive championships! The Thunder is a well-established dynasty team. Forgive me for not reading enough, and I can only say "Li Zeniu X!"

"When I think that Li Ze is not yet 22 years old, I feel a little sad, but this season has maintained 180 club statistics, I can only say that Li Ze is awesome!"

"I, Zhan Mingming, performed very well. I blame the Heat for the garbage management. There is no reliable role player. Next season, quickly trade Bosh and replace a few reliable role players. Pat Riley delayed me from winning the championship. what!"

"Hehe, the Thunder team disintegrated during the offseason. With three super-maximum salaries, the small ball market doesn't want to pay taxes at all. In the new season, Crouching Tiger will directly trade Li Ze to assist Volute!"

"Get out! Get swept away for two consecutive years, and still come out, Kobe should retire as soon as possible, how good it is to go home and bring a baby with peace of mind!"

"I really want to touch Li Ze's trophy! Hurry up and organize the fan meeting. I bought both sneakers in two colors. It's better to have a championship commemorative model!"

"."

Having won the award for two consecutive years, Li Ze, who was in a good mood, directly threw money away that night, and led the Thunder team to a nightclub in Miami for an overtime match. Everyone drank in a daze, and hopped along to the happy song.

Li Ze leaned on the deck to control the ball with both hands, casually took the wine glass handed over by the Latin girl next to him, and drank it straight away. Thinking of the experience bonus gained from the championship badge, he couldn't help but smile:
"4 times the experience bonus of the game, it will be over later, the future must be mine!"
