The next day, major media outlets reported the results of the Eastern Conference Finals.In NBA history, the most dominant teams in the league have been able to reach the Finals three years in a row, including the Knicks in 5153; the Celtics who dominated the '60s and the '80s when they fought the Lakers for years; pistons from the late 80s; the Bulls who won two triple championships in the 90s; There are also the Lakers who staged three consecutive championships at the beginning of the 21st century.Now, the Nets have also taken a solid step to become the sixth team in history to do so without much accolades.Because it would be too embarrassing to greet them not with a dynasty, but three runners-up in a row.On June 6, the two sides will start their first match at the home court of the Nets.ESN invited 14 expert panels to analyze the current situation of the two teams and make predictions for the finals.The Nets have the home-court advantage in this Finals, with a schedule of 232, that is, the Nets play two home courts first, the Lakers then play three home courts, and finally the Nets have two home courts.Among the 14-member expert panel, 11 chose the Lakers to defeat the Nets to win the championship, and only 3 were optimistic that the Nets would eventually win the championship.Among them, even Leslie Hodgson, a reporter with the ESN Nets, chose the Lakers to win the championship in 7 games.However, many ESN pundits agree that this matchup will be very tight, and none of the 14 will choose to win or lose with less than six matches.In ESN's online fan poll, the Lakers remain strong.In just one day, more than 70,000 fans voted, of which 81 favored the Lakers to win the championship and only 19 favored the Nets.This is also because the Nets attract Chinese fans, otherwise the support rate is even lower.Looking at the fame of the starting star, the Lakers F4 won completely.The substitute Nets have a slight upper hand, but it is generally the stars who decide the victory, not the substitutes.Both players have a wealth of experience in the finals.There is no such thing as a good or a bad.ESN listed several key factors for the Finals, believing that the Lakers will win the championship again after a year's absence.The first is the Lakers' singles advantage.One of the things that the Nets must do well defensively is to interfere with O'Neal's every catch, because O'Neal has super dominance on the inside.The second is cross-rotation defense.Kittels did a good job defending Kobe, but the two would not be in line for most of the game.The appearance of off-ball screens will have a lot of transposition.The Nets last faced the Lakers in the Finals.Terrible at this.Of course, Martin and Collins were too young to start their fledgling at that time, and their defensive ability was definitely better than in 2002.Finally, there is the ability to score in key moments.At critical moments, the two teams will attack more directly and more one-on-one.The Lakers have two superstars, and the key shot looks much better than the Nets.The "OK Combo" has won three consecutive championships and has proven the power of the triangle attack.Proves the ability of the two stars.The Nets are far behind in this regard.Experts generally believe that Wang Jun's ability to play key shots is much stronger than that of the core Kidd, which will be a major hidden danger for the Nets.In addition to predicting the outcome of the game, major media also mentioned Wang Jun's words about the Lakers at the press conference, and the contradictions of the Lakers.That would be the only hidden danger for the Lakers to lose.Many Lakers fans were unhappy with Wang's remarks.On the Internet, some people started a discussion with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, thinking that Wang Jun's statement that the finals were the "Battle of Guandu" was a manifestation of arrogance, and he thought he was a hero.A Chinese fan who supports the Lakers posted that this is more like a "battle of the fall", and the Lakers set up an ambush on all sides.The Nets are already embattled.There was even a post by Kemi that directly satirized Wang Jun, saying that he would not dare to compete with Kobe Bryant in the finals.It's just the kind of player who plays without the ball and has no body, and has no skills to speak of.Ryan Hughes read the online comments and called Wang Jun at noon."
Wang, didn't I tell you to pay attention to what you say, why did you forget that you are so easy to offend people?"
Wang Jun said with a bitter smile: "I was interviewed in Chinese, in the face of Chinese fans really don't want to say those boring official words, Lakers contradictory news all day long, it doesn't matter if it comes out of my mouth" Hughes said seriously: "You have to understand, it doesn't matter how many bad things the media say, they just do this."
If you say no, it's like laughing at Kobe and O'Neal, offending two stars at once, and some people will suspect you of being a thorn. ”The OK combination has been in the air for a long time, and there are really no players who openly laugh at them, and the influence of the stars is very great.Even if the person concerned is a scumbag, there are generally no peers who stand up and scold, and they are not good for themselves and cause a commotion.If someone stands up and sprays, it must be that the scum is hopelessly avoidable, such as "Big Dog" Robinson.Wang Jun thought for a while and said with a smile: "Lei, you are too sensitive, let me give you an example, two shrews scolded on the street, attracting a group of onlookers, and the police were dispatched."
At this time, a pure virgin was watching the excitement next to her, and couldn't help but laugh twice, everyone will think that this virgin is too poor, and her quality is not as good as those two shrews who scolded the street, is it impossible, at most, I think she is very real, a little stupid. ”Hughes was stunned on the other end of the phone for five seconds before replying."
Why is your example so disgusting," Wang Jun said with a smile, "I think that's the truth."
If people are drawn to attention, it's definitely not because I'm a prick, it's because I'm attractive.There are so many people watching the excitement next to me, and there is no one who pulls the rack, don't you laugh or say anything, it's not that you are watching the excitement, they are just more hypocritical than me. ”Hughes found that he couldn't refute it, and the example given by Wang Jun was the current situation of the Lakers, and there were more people watching the excitement.Wang Jun continued: "I am honored to be compared with Kobe Bryant by the fans, and I will definitely work hard to play well in the finals." ”After chatting for a few words, Hughes encouraged him not to be nervous, and hung up the phone after trying to type out the data as much as possible.Hughes thought about it and felt that the reminder was a bit redundant, since Wang Jun dared to laugh at the "OK group" infighting in the interview, he naturally would not be intimidated by their fame.In contrast, he cares too much about the name of the star.The Lakers are not as strong as they seem.The contradictions of media leaks are only the tip of the iceberg, and in fact they are much more serious than people understand.There are conflicts not only between the players, but also between the players and the coaches, and even within the Bass family.Jeanie Buss has helped Buss Sr. manage the professional baseball team since she was 19 years old, becoming the Lakers' commercial president in 1999 and the Lakers' representative at the league's shareholder meeting.In the eyes of outsiders, she is a symbol of the Lakers.She has always been very involved in Lakers operations.Jim Bass became assistant general manager of the Lakers in 1998 and later oversaw human resources.He has a low-key style and is not well known, but he is also interested in taking over from the Lakers.Jerebus is semi-retired, and only one of the two will become the new head, so it is inevitable that there will be a fight.This kind of thing often happens when the son inherits his father's business, but Jenny is more capable, which complicates the relationship between the Lakers management.The problems with the OK combination have been going on for a season, and the dressing room has been completely split to the point where every player has to stand on the team.The big man is one faction, the guard is one faction, and Kobe and O'Neal don't talk to each other.Not long ago, there was a gossip in Los Angeles, the news said that O'Neal refused to let Lakers chief trainer Garivetti massage his ankle because Waiti is "Kobe's man", which shows how bad the relationship is.Kobe Bryant will still be willing to be a little brother like he did in the previous three seasons, play honestly, and wait for O'Neal to attract the ball after the package is divided O'Neal already has 3 Finals V, of course Kobe Bryant also wants to have his own, and the two can't coexist at all
