At the beginning of the death entanglement, Curry followed me to slam dunk

Chapter 162

On June 6, the first game between the Warriors and the Celtics is about to start.

Before the game started, many fans had an unspeakable sense of disobedience.

Obviously the Warriors are the dark horses that reached the finals with the title of black seven, but their record is even better than the Celtics.

In the regular season, the Warriors achieved a record of 50 wins and 32 losses, but this result can only rank seventh in the Wild West.

As for the Celtics, although they are ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference, their team's record is only 49 wins and 32 losses.

Looking at it this way, the Warriors, who created the miracle of Black Seven, faced opponents with worse records than themselves in the finals. This sense of dissonance really makes people laugh and laugh.

This also puts the media in a rather tangled state.

The Warriors' Black Seven Miracle is obviously a traffic point worth writing about.

However, the record of this dark horse is the dominant side, and even has home court advantage. The combination of these points makes people feel very awkward.

According to the rules, the finals are divided into home and away games based on the wins of the two teams during the regular season, not the ranking.

For example, in the 06-07 season between the Spurs and the Cavaliers, although the Spurs ranked third in the Western Conference and the Cavaliers ranked second in the Eastern Conference, in the finals, the Spurs with more wins still had the home court advantage.

But for the media, this entanglement is only temporary.

Soon, the websites with faster response will find another way to report from another point.

Among teams that have won home-court advantage in the NBA Finals, the Warriors have the lowest ranking in history.

It is already quite rare for a team to create a black seven miracle and reach the finals, but it is a bit unexpected that they can still have home court advantage after entering the finals.

From this point of view, Du Zhe can be regarded as leading the Warriors, inadvertently rewriting history a little bit.

In the previous seasons, only the New York Knicks in the 98-99 season entered the finals ranked lower than the Warriors.

They made it all the way to the Finals as the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference, but the Knicks did not have the home court advantage like the Warriors.

This record can be said to be unprecedented, and it will be difficult for anyone to come later.

Of course, the Warriors fans are still very happy about this. After all, in the fierce finals, with one more home court advantage, the team can have one more hope of victory.

This small gap can sometimes tilt the balance of victory.

However, the fans were happy, but most people did not underestimate the Celtics because of this.

Everyone knows that the regular season record can only be used as a reference, and it cannot be used to judge the strength of a team.

Especially for a team like the Celtics with a lot of veterans, in order to reduce unnecessary injuries, they will definitely have reservations in the regular season.

And the fact is the same. Of the two Cavaliers and Magic teams eliminated by the Celtics in this year's playoffs, one team won 59 games in the regular season, and the other team also won [-] games.

Just looking at the regular season results, which of the two teams can't beat the Celtics?
But the fact is, whether it is the Cavaliers or the Magic, they didn't have much power to fight back against the Celtics, and they were all easily eliminated by the opponent.

So in the eyes of the fans, although the Warriors are all the way to the Western Conference Finals, the Celtics are not vegetarian.

The Heat, Cavaliers and Magic eliminated by them are also the strongest teams in the Eastern Conference.

The bosses of each team, Wade, James, and Howard are also rising stars who have been in the limelight in recent years.

Although the Warriors have home court advantage, it will definitely not be so easy to win such a seasoned team.

On June 6, the NBA Finals officially started!
"Dear viewers, what I am now explaining to you is the first game of the NBA 09-10 season finals."

"Today the Warriors sit at Oracle's home court to meet the Celtics' challenge."

Director Yu and Director Zhang are still giving explanations dedicatedly.

And the players of the two teams also appeared one after another.

In the first game of the Finals, the Warriors placed Du Zhe at the small forward position.

The team's starting lineup is composed of: Curry, Ellis, Du Zhe, Tolliver and Turiaf.

Maggette took Duzhe's position and will lead the team's second team as the sixth man.

This also means that the Warriors will further tilt the ball towards Du Zhe.

The Celtics lineup has not changed much.

Point Guard: Rajon Rondo
Shooting Guard: Ray Allen
Small Forward: Paul Pierce

Power Forward: Kevin Garnett

Center: Kendrick Perkins
Du Zhe looked up and saw that the entire Oracle Stadium was filled with Warriors fans, and the entire arena turned into a sea of ​​golden yellow.

In the golden ocean, there are also a few green flowers dotted, like a solitary boat in the sea, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

I think it should be Celtic fans who came to support their team not far away.

The shouts at the scene were deafening, making Du Zhe's head feel a little dazed.

He can also understand this. The fans here have endured it for too long. After experiencing a low period for more than ten years, they need a chance to vent their pent-up grievances for more than ten years.

It can be said that the Oracle Arena at this time has truly transformed into a terrifying devil's home stadium.

The Warriors players clearly enjoyed the atmosphere, especially Curry, who hadn't seen it since his debut.

And Ellis, as an old man of the team, couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Since the black eight miracle, he hasn't seen the fans so excited for a long time.

Before the start of the game, the team gathered together as usual and accepted the tactics arranged by the head coach Nelson.

And surrounded by the players in the center, besides Old Nelson, was Du Zhe.

After going through round after round of bloody battles in the playoffs, Du Zhe has become a well-deserved master of the Warriors.

Although he is young, even though he is only an undrafted player, even though this is only his first full season, no one will question his status as the team's boss.

After the old Nelson finished setting up the tactics, Du Zhe also said some morale-boosting words as usual to cheer everyone up.

But so far, the Warriors have nothing to worry about.

After each game, everyone has gradually adapted to the rhythm of the playoffs, and because Du Zhe has the bottom line, other players can also let go of their hands and feet, and don't have to bear so much pressure.

After getting ready to play, Du Zhe set his sights on the Celtics bench.

I saw that although the faces of the Big Three were dignified, their eyes were quite firm, as if they were not disturbed by the boos from the sidelines at all.

But Rondo was eager to try, with a look of being unable to hold back.

From Rondo's eyes, Du Zhe saw the ambition of the other party who was unwilling to be lonely. Rondo is not a master who is content with the status quo.

However, no matter how ambitious Rondo was, Du Zhe didn't take him seriously.
