From South China Tiger to NBA King

Inside the studio of CCTV.

Zhang Weiping said angrily: "Let's be honest, this was originally a wonderful game, but it was ruined by the referee."

"Yes." Yu Jia nodded in agreement and said: "Both players have tried their best to win. The referees should not come out to steal the show. They should let the players decide the game themselves instead of giving Jianghu an inexplicable decision. A foul, this penalty reversed the situation for both parties."

"After Jiang Hu took the shot, he bumped into Curry who was retreating. As a result, Jiang Hu was called for a collision foul. In slow motion, we can see that Curry's position was not completely stationary at that time. This was actually a blocking foul that could have been called. It’s understandable even if he doesn’t call the ball, but he shouldn’t call an offensive foul.”

"You have to know that the goal has been scored. With Jianghu's free throw shooting rate, extra penalties are very stable. This goal is 3 points inside and outside. If the ball goes in, then they will lead by 4 points. The situation is completely different."

CCTV's golden partners all believed that the Celtics had been unfairly punished.

"This is not to say that the Celtics will definitely win the final victory. The Warriors also showed resilience in this game. They did a very good job in both defense and offense. In the end, it is possible for whoever wins." Zhang Weiping concluded:
"But the outcome of the game should be decided by the players and should not be affected by non-competitive factors. This is a blasphemy against sportsmanship."

The audience in front of the TV also very much recognized Director Zhang's point of view, believing that the game should be decided by the players, rather than making the originally exciting game full of suspense because of these fouls.

After the game, the players in the Celtics locker room were surprisingly quiet.

They spent too much energy in the game, but did not get corresponding rewards. Especially this kind of unclear loss is the most saddening.

Stevens glanced at his players and hoped that such emotions would not affect the rest of the game.

Stevens has never been a fan of chicken soup, but as the team's head coach, he felt that he needed to say a few words at this moment.

So he knocked on the locker door. After everyone's eyes were focused, he said:
"Everyone, actually you played very well today. Everyone made their own contribution on both offense and defense, and there were no messy mistakes."

"But that's the game, and sometimes there are surprises in the game."

"There are moments when we have to face situations like this. Sometimes there are injuries, sometimes there are boos from fans, sometimes there is unhappiness between teammates, and sometimes the referee's decisions may be controversial."

"But that's part of the game, you have to accept it."

"We are still in the lead now. As long as we go all out and everything is under control, I believe the final victory still belongs to us."

Although Stevens doesn't often give chicken soup, he has to admit that his eloquence is pretty good. After speaking, many people no longer looked as lost as they were just now.

At this moment, Owen, who was sitting in the corner, stood up.

He stood in the middle of the locker room, made a Christian prayer gesture, and then said to everyone:

“I’m sorry, everyone!!”

"I didn't do well enough in this game. My shooting percentage was a bit low. After Jiang left the field, I didn't step up in time to take over the important task."

"But thank God. We had a 3-1 lead in the previous game."

"So there's still a lot of leeway for us."

"In the next game, even if it is in San Francisco, we will not give the Warriors any chance and let the referees not be able to help them."

As the number one figure of this team, Jiang Hu also stood up at this moment:
"Yes, losing this game is adversity for us, but it is not a desperate situation."

"We need to be aware of a problem. This is a business league. The league may still give the Warriors some preferential treatment in the next game, but are those things important??"

"Do they really think they can beat us with the referee's help??"

"We will use our own strength to tell someone that they actually have the help of referees, but they are still no match for us!!!"

"A true championship doesn't need any outside help!!"

"What we have to do is break down all obstacles and embrace the final victory!!"

"What we have to do is turn the next game into our tie-break!!"

"Don't leave yourself a way out, we have to end the series in the next game!!"

Jianghu cheered: "Keep the championship in Boston!!!"

Hearing Jianghu's roar, everyone seemed to have a flash of inspiration at this moment. They seemed to understand why they were fighting, and they all shouted:
"Keep the championship in Boston!!!"

"Keep the championship in Boston!!!"

Angie had just returned to the locker room from the sidelines. He was still thinking about how he should encourage the young players, but he did not expect that they had already completed self-regulation.

Opening the door, Angie walked in and laughed loudly:
"Brothers, be more forceful in the next game. Just like Jiang said, we must fight him as the final decisive battle and win at all costs."

"Mr. Russell is so old. Don't burden him. Let's be good people and decide to win the championship at their home court in the next game. Let him give us an award and give it to San Francisco, which has played in the finals for several consecutive years. People should start their vacation early.”

Smart laughed and said, "Good guy, Danny!!"

Horford, who has always been low-key, also joked: "Then Stephen and Kevin still have to thank us??"

“It’s necessary!!!”

"Hahahahaha!!"

"pretty!!!"

With the roar of laughter from the crowd, the gloomy atmosphere in the Celtics locker room disappeared in one fell swoop, and instead became filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

................................................

After the Warriors defeated the Celtics, public opinion became more friendly to them, and the outside world also believed that the Warriors had a chance to make a comeback.

The arrogant Warriors fans even said: "The next game is G6, just wait, Clay will teach you Bostonians a lesson in the next game!!!"

The confidence from the outside world even infected the players, and the entire Warriors team was immersed in this state of contentment during the past two days.

Green said arrogantly in an interview:

"History has already told you the answer. We have done it once two years ago. It is not difficult to do it again."

"You don't think those little brats from Boston can take the championship away from us, do you? Come on, it's better if Michael comes!!"

"River???"

"Well, he is indeed very good, but I'm sorry, we have two in our team who are as good as him. Look, the great Stephen and Kevin will not let the championship slip away from our hands."

When other Warriors players were interviewed, although they were not as arrogant as Green, they showed attitudes as if they had successfully made a comeback.

Curry: "Jiang? He is very good. He will win his own era, but not yet!!"

When Thompson was asked what he thought about the next game, he said: "To be honest, I prefer playing in the away game than playing tiebreaker at home, where all you hear is boos and abuse, and all you have to do is The first thing is to block out all the negative factors and noise and focus on the game wholeheartedly."

The sixth game has not yet started, but Thompson's words seem to be 100% certain that there will be a seventh game. This attitude can no longer be described as arrogant, and even a bit arrogant.But ordinary Americans think it is very reasonable, because this is the "American self-confidence" they advocate...

However, Jiang Hu did not pay attention to these voices. The Celtics players basically spent the past two days after the game training and studying videos. Most of the interviews were perfunctory and even felt that the interviews were a waste of training. Time is a matter of time, so there is no time to care about what the Warriors players said.

Jianghu studied the details of the video mainly about foul control. He reviewed the game frame by frame to see how his six fouls occurred. In the next game, he must try his best to avoid such a thing again. Appear.

Sitting on the bench at the decisive moment and watching the team struggle to lose the game, this feeling is enough once, and Jianghu doesn't want to experience it a second time.

..................................................................

Time passed quickly, and soon June 6th came, another competition day.

Today's Oracle is a gathering of stars. Many entertainment stars and sports stars have come to the scene. Handsome men and beautiful women have gathered together, forming a beautiful scenery.

"Wow, it's Neymar, he's here too."

"He is a die-hard Curry fan!!"

"Over there, that's An Jiali, the daughter of the owner of the Kings. Oh my god, she actually came to watch the Warriors' home game."

"And JAY-Z and Beyoncé."

There were exclamations one after another, and the flashlights kept flashing.

With so many stars present, this alone made countless fans excited. However, when the players from both sides came out of the tunnel, the fans' enthusiasm completely exploded.

The arena, which can accommodate 2 people, was packed. Tens of thousands of fans stood up, shouted the names of their favorite players, screamed and cheered for them.

The entire arena was immersed in a sea of ​​noise, and the huge sound even drowned out the amplified sound of the live DJ through the speakers.

"Stephen, Curry!!"

"Kevin, Durant!!"

"Klay, Thompson!!"

The cheers reached their peak, with countless fans standing up and shouting the names of several Warriors stars.

At this moment, the entire arena was boiling, and the huge sound spread far away, causing people outside the arena to shout loudly, making the sound even louder and deafening.

As the defending champion, the enthusiasm of Warriors fans to watch the game is indeed shocking.

The fans at Oracle Arena finally gave the Celtics the greatest "respect"! ! !
The loud boos, the howling of ghosts, and the noisy sound also reminded people in front of the TV of the seventh game of the 2 Finals played here two years ago.

After the crazy and noisy entrance ceremony, players from both teams stood still on the court.

Today, the expressions of the players of both teams are very dignified, not as relaxed as before.

This is the final moment of decisive victory, and no one will back down.

"Viewers, I believe you have heard that the sound in the arena was very loud and the scene was very spectacular because there were too many people today. Today's game is very crucial. Can the Celtics win the championship? Can the Warriors win the championship?" Survive the desperate situation and drag the game into a tiebreaker."

The ESPN TV reporter said loudly. Infected by the atmosphere at the scene, her face turned red and she looked very excited.

"There are too many people today and the atmosphere is too hot."

The CCTV sports reporter took the microphone and shouted: "Today is the sixth game of the finals between the Celtics and the Warriors, and it is also a game about the championship. We can see that Yao Ming, Chairman of the National Basketball Association and Chairman of the CBA League Here he is, he’s been sitting on the sidelines since the last game.”

"CCTV commentators Zhang Weiping and Yu Jia are already sitting in the commentary box, and old teammates from Jianghu, Yi Jianlian and Zhu Fangyu are also here. There are many celebrities, I won't introduce them one by one, everyone can see them. In short, I believe that today’s game will not disappoint us, please wait and see.”

"Today's game is very important for the Warriors and the Celtics."

Reporters from TNT TV station were also reporting on the scene. The camera focused on the players from both sides, especially Jiang Hu, Irving, Curry, Durant and others. Almost everyone was given a close-up.

Today, you can see from the camera that their expressions are very calm, with a kind of solemnity in their calmness.

At the same time, countless fans across the United States, across China, and other countries are watching this game and cheering for their favorite teams and players.

Some people are looking forward to it, and some people are full of anxiety. They look at the TV, computer, and mobile phone screens, silently waiting for the game to start.

"Remember what everyone said in the locker room at the end of the last game."

"This is our tiebreaker. We can only win, not lose. I want you to remember the feeling of losing the last game. We have to win this game, defeat the Warriors and win the championship."

Stevens had a solemn look on his face and waved his fists, completely unlike his usual self, as if at this moment he had really become a handsome man fighting on the battlefield.

"Kill the Warriors and keep the championship in Boston!"

Jiang Hu was the first to stand up and respond with fists.

Irving, Smart, Jaylen Brown, Horford, Rozier and other Celtic players also spoke one after another, with solemn expressions and cold eyes, and shouted in unison: "Kill the Warriors and keep the championship in Boston!"

Hearing this sound, the Warriors fans in the audience immediately became angry. Tens of thousands of Warriors fans stood up and booed violently at the Celtics players.

Here, the Warriors are surrounding Cole.

Cole didn't want to talk about tactics today, he just said with a serious expression:
"We've been through a lot this season, failures, injuries, quarrels, infighting, all kinds of things."

"But what I want to tell you is: Don't forget your mission, don't forget your responsibilities. We are fighting for San Francisco and California!!"

Cole glanced at Jianghu, and then continued: "Even fighting for the United States!!"

"There is only one thing we have to do, and that is to defeat our opponents and win the championship,"

All the Warriors players were excited and excited, and they all looked at Cole. They had rarely seen Cole speak so passionately, and they were inspired for a while.

"I want." Cole looked at everyone and raised his voice a few more times, "I want you to tell everyone what we are going to do?"

"Kill the Celtics!"

All the Warriors players yelled.

"What do we want?"

"Champion, champion!"

Everyone roared in unison, and the sound was so loud that it infected the Warriors fans in the audience, making them roar loudly too.

It was the first time for some people to watch the NBA Finals, and even for the first time to watch an NBA game, they only felt suffocated, and their blood began to boil, surging in their limbs.

At this moment, everyone is infected. (End of chapter)
