Chapter 599: Kobe's season! !

Both Yao Mai and Kobe have reasons to win.
Then the Clippers and Wizards are also very interesting.
The Clippers have entered the Finals for the first time, and the Wizards were originally called the Bullets. After being renamed the Wizards, although they have made it to the Finals several times, they have yet to win.
No matter which of these two teams wins, there will be a lot of topics.
Before the official start of the finals, the league announced the last batch of awards of the season, the best team and the best defensive team.
Best Defensive Team: Paul, Kobe, James, Garnett, Howard
Second defensive team: Rondo, Wade, Artest, Duncan, Yao Ming
The best team: Paul, Kobe, James, Nowitzki, Yao Ming
Second team: Sun Hao, Wade, Roy, Duncan, Howard
Three teams: Parker, Pierce, Durant, Anthony, Gasol
There is one point to note here. There is a requirement for the MVP selection league. The minimum number of games is 50 games. Sun Hao was not selected.
But for the best team, there is no limit.
However, the number of appearances will also affect the final voting result, so Sun Hao finally only won a second team.
The most intuitive point of this lineup this year is that the top five shooting guards at the beginning of the century were Sun Hao and Kobe.
The core force of the league has become the 03 generation and younger players.
The youth of a generation is coming to an end, and the youth of a new generation has begun.
After the last batch of season awards were awarded, the finals officially opened.
Because the Clippers have an excellent record, the first game was played at Staples Center.
Sun Hao showed up at the Staples Center with Scarlett.
When warming up before the game, he first chatted with Kobe and then with Yao Ming for a long time.
His current identity is an audience. For him, the outcome of the game is not the most important thing, the most important thing is the game process.
At this time, the old Deng Liwei, the head coach of the Clippers and the general manager of the team, came over and chatted with Sun Hao for a while.
Many people may have forgotten the one-year contract signed by Sun Hao and the Warriors. At the end of the season, he is a completely free agent!
At this time, he will naturally attract the attention of a lot of team management.
what? The Clippers already have Kobe?
That's not a matter at all!
As long as Sun Hao says he wants to come to the Clippers, the Clippers will clear enough salary space in minutes.
You have to know that the Clippers do not have the label of "public enemy for all" of the Lakers, and the value of the players of the Clippers except Kobe is not low.
Do it a little bit and set up a big three of Kobe, Sun Hao and Gasol in minutes.
At this time, I have to revisit the league's matter of free agent recruitment. Even the parent team cannot talk to free agents before the free market opens.
However, as mentioned before, there are always countermeasures under the policy.
Leave a contact information to show your good feelings or something, and it is very common to even hit a side ball.
Of course Sun Hao didn't think much.
It sounds good that he and Kobe are teammates, but that doesn't appeal to him much.
Because the first and second players in the league are on the same team, forcing other people to cling together, this is not his style.
After the opening ceremony, the two teams started one after another, and the finals officially opened.
As soon as the game opened, the Clippers showed a stronger competitiveness than the Wizards.
To say that the Wizards can reach the Finals has a lot to do with Tracy McGrady's performance, but Yao Ming's advantage in the interior is fundamental to the team.
The role of a top center in the playoffs is immeasurable.
However, the Clippers' current inside configuration is not much worse than the Wizards.
Although Bynum is a lot behind Yao Ming, there is still Gasol.
Yao Ming has fewer advantages in the paint, and the Wizards seem to be struggling on both offense and defense.
Fortunately, the Wizards' fighting spirit is exceptionally high, and the Clippers have never let the Clippers open the score.
When the two sides finished the first quarter, the Wizards were only 5 points behind the Clippers 22-27.
This fierce competition also feasted the fans' eyes.
However, in the second quarter, the Clippers began to gradually take advantage.
Obviously, the bench strength of the two sides is not on the same level.
Odom, the best sixth-man level, and Sun Yue from the outside line, one attack and one defense make the scalp numb.
Previously, when the Warriors played the Clippers opener, the Clippers' substitute contributed to the 24 points behind.
If it weren't for Landry's magical play in the fourth quarter, the Warriors might not have a final chance to win.
And the Wizards also had a big problem tonight. Finley was suspended.
This has to be traced back to the controversial tiebreaker in the Eastern Finals.
Although Finley successfully completed the exchange with Garnett, he was also suspended for two games by the league.
With Artest leaving the team, Finley's role in the Wizards' forward line is still very large.
The main force can rely on tenacious fighting spirit to make up for that not too big gap.
But the substitute became the winner of the game.
In the end, the Clippers withstood despite the Wizards' fierce counterattack in the final quarter, winning the game 106-97.
After Sun Hao watched the game, he basically had a general judgment in his heart.
No one on both sides of this game said that the performance was abnormal, or that it was an explosion. It was all normal performance.
In this case of normal play, the Wizards are not an opponent of the Clippers.
No surprises, or if there is no explosion, this year's championship will basically be known.
However, there is a tiebreaker in the Eastern Finals, and this judgment is only a rough idea.
After all... who knows if something like that will happen again?
The finals continued, and it was at this time that West came to visit Sun Hao.
Unlike the old Dunleavy before, West did not reveal anything related to free agency.
He came to Sun Hao for one thing, and wanted Sun Hao to participate in the Warriors' draft.
In this wave, West said he was in the atmosphere.
To put it in a more vivid way, West's approach means that he believes that Sun Hao will stay with the Warriors.
And the most important thing is that Sun Hao is not so easy to refuse.
After all, West said nothing else.
Sun Hao finally agreed, because Curry, he will definitely go to the draft this time.
It's nothing more than selling West's favor, and then changing the place to watch the draft.
Time flew fast, and the finals came to an end amidst the comments of the fans.
The competition was fierce, but the result was expected.
The Clippers defeated the Wizards 4-1 and won their first championship in team history.
Although McGrady had been closed before, but by the time of the finals, he was already a bit of a force.
The strength of the Clippers itself is stronger than them, it is difficult for him to play big.
The only game the Wizards won was when Yao Ming went inside and scored 30+10 to win.
However, compared with the Magic in the same period in history, and the plus version of the Lakers, the Wizards can win a game is actually pretty good.
As for the off-board move, Carlisle didn't use it anymore.
In essence, although the name "card" is included in the name, Carlisle and Karl are still very different.
He used the extravagant tricks against the Celtics, completely surrendering to the other way.
Facts have also proved that he did that and did not bring him too much negative impact, because the Celtics two years ago operation has already filled the ground.
The Clippers are the champions, and Kobe also averaged 32.4 points, 5.6 rebounds and 7.4 assists in the finals. There is no suspense. At the same time, he was elected FMVP for the first time in his career!
Sun Hao watched the G6 game live, when the team won the championship, Kobe was already trying to control his emotions.
When he got the final FMVP trophy, he finally couldn't control his emotions and tears filled his eyes.
He and Iverson are probably the most controversial and similar players in the league.
Iverson is awkward, Kobe is paranoid.
At the beginning of their careers, because of their respective personalities, they all fell asleep.
However, Kobe's attitude and talent, even luck, are better than Iverson, so he has gained more.
Of course that is history, and now, the fate of the two have become somewhat similar.
Iverson put aside his jealousy and acted as deputy to James, and finally ushered in his first championship last season.
And Kobe, after becoming mature, he finally reached the top because he ushered in the most suitable insider Gasol.
Especially when he came this way, revenge on James, revenge on Sun Hao, and then reach the summit.
The significance of this championship, personally, is not inferior to the one that Nowitzki won in history in 2011.
In front of more than 20,000 fans at home, Kobe made his acceptance speech in a slightly hoarse and choked tone.
At the beginning of the testimonial, he thanked Vanessa.
Some past events were reluctant to mention again, but Vanessa chose to stand behind him in the Eagle County incident, which made him full of love for Vanessa.
In the past few years, he has repeatedly fought and failed. After the Olympics, he lost himself for a while. It is also Vanessa who has given him the greatest encouragement and support.
"I love you forever, no matter what."
Kobe also sprinkled dog food in front of everyone.
This scene also caused continuous cheers on the scene, and even many fans shed tears.
Speaking of it, there are some flaws in love, and sometimes they are even more memorable.
Bryant's Eagle County incident made them love each other more deeply.
And Scarlett’s accidental miscarriage at the time made Sun Hao and Scarlett more inseparable.
Some fans have gained a lot of inspiration from these stories.
Maybe you are now experiencing a difficult situation, or even a moment of depression and despair.
But who knows, this is not to make your tomorrow better?
After Vanessa, Kobe then thanked the fans in Los Angeles.
Returning to Los Angeles, being able to be accepted by the fans so quickly, that gave him the most motivation to persist until now.
Although Kobe's personality is different from Sun Haotian, he still has a lot in common.
For example, the attributes of their partial scores on the field, as mentioned before, and their attitude towards fans.
Then, Kobe thanked the management.
"When I was most confused, they took me back to Los Angeles, which made me renew my fighting spirit."
Kobe's words are also very true.
After leaving the Lakers and leaving O'Neal, consecutive years of failures in the Mavericks and being hacked, his career and reputation have reached the lowest point.
You must know that his return to Los Angeles is not that he wants to return, but that the Clippers paid a great price to trade him back.
So from this point, he would be very grateful to the current management.
At the end of the speech, he thanked his opponents in this route, including Sun Hao.
"Without them, I would always be Kobe wearing the No. 8 jersey, but because of them, I can become the No. 24 Kobe."
Kobe used a metaphor, but the meaning in his words was already very clear.
Because his change is not because he wants to change, but because of these opponents.
"Especially Sun, I look forward to another matchup with him next season. My goal is definitely not just the champion in front of me."
Kobe, this is officially declaring Sun Hao's friend official as his lifelong enemy.
Although, this has actually been a long time ago.
Compared to Alexander who was the Mavericks, he is the one who really has this qualification.
Sun Hao, this can be regarded as being called out in the air.
However, that is exactly what he hoped.
And at this moment, Sun Hao strengthened his determination to stay in the Warriors.
After a "failure" season, the lads of the Warriors will grow.
And he also wants to take them to win back after failure!
West: This wave I am in space.
Two days after the Clippers won the championship, they held a grand parade to win the championship in Los Angeles.
For the unprecedented, Kobe took his Vanessa and daughters to the parade.
After winning this championship, Kobe also values ​​his family a lot more than in the past.
Los Angeles fans are also very excited on this day.
Although it is not the Lakers this time, it is the seventh championship that Los Angeles has won in the past ten years.
This championship parade was also carried out 7 times in ten years...
This frequency is even greater than that of Chicago at the beginning, and it is straight ahead of Boston, which won eight consecutive championships.
At the end of the parade to win the championship, Kobe also once again as a representative to express his opinions.
At the end of the testimonial, he also repeated the words he said on the night of the championship.
He is not satisfied with the current championship, he wants to bring more championships to the Clippers.
This is also completely understandable, you must know that the Clippers' main lineup is still at its peak.
The first of the Clippers, another dynasty in Los Angeles, why not?
The Clippers' championship parade ended in the expectations of the fans, and the 2008-2009 season finally finished.
For Sun Hao, although he was not joined halfway to win the championship this time, the experience after participating is also very interesting.
And he is also looking forward to playing against Kobe next season.
Because the Clippers are different from the previous Nuggets.
There is a hint of luck for the Nuggets to win the championship, but the Clippers do not.
In the next few years, they will be one of the strongest teams in the league.
This kind of "underdog" status gave Sun Hao something to go back to when he was still playing in Dallas.
That makes people motivated.
Of course, it is still very early to start next season.
A few days later, Sun Hao took Su Feng on a plane to New York.
There, the 2009 NBA Draft is about to kick off.
The 2009 NBA Draft is a draft that has attracted much attention.
In addition to Curry, there are...
"White Warcraft", Blake Griffin, the imperial champion;
"Uncle Mu 2nd Generation", Hashim Thabeet, who played 10 blocks in three consecutive games at the University of Connecticut;
Rubio, the "Spanish Golden Boy" who shined in the Beijing Olympics;
Tyreke Evans, the former top high school in the United States, the 2008 McDonald’s high school MVP, and known as the "defender James";
In college, he has averaged 7.6 free throws per game and is known as the next Ginobili's all-around guard James Harden;
University of Arizona’s double-double machine, rebounding monster Jordan Hill;
Kamal DeRozan, known as "Carter's successor";
Rarely, Brandon Jennings, who did not play NCAA after graduating from high school, went to Europe to play brilliantly;
The NCAA's best rookie last year, brutal power forward Taylor Hansbrough;
...
This is basically something given in this year's draft report.
According to media reports, this is a serious draft year.
In the eyes of Sun Hao, who has opened his eyes, this draft is worthy of the name.
Curry aside, if it weren't for injuries, Griffin would have left a lot of history in history, becoming the super giant Harden, and the All-Star DeRozan.
These few people alone are enough to support this draft.
And judging from their performance in the first few years of entering the league, they are also fully in line with expectations.
Because in addition to these few, Evans played 20+5+5 in his rookie season;
Jennings has a vigorous performance of 55 points in a single game as a rookie;
Rubio has become a frequent visitor to the top five in his rookie period.
These are enough to explain the quality of this draft.
Of course, Sun Hao cared most about Curry.
Curry's previous draft predictions were the highest in the top three, but he didn't know why Curry would have an ankle injury.
Because he knows that in history, Curry didn't have any injury problems early in his career. It was during the contract year that he had an ankle problem.
Curry's contract extension was very famous at the time.
Curry's talent was not the best at the time, but it was not bad, but an ankle injury caused him to miss a lot of games, and many people thought he would fade out of the NBA stage.
Then the Warriors showed courage and renewed him with a four-year, 44 million contract.
This was questioned by many people at the time, because Curry's injuries were still more serious at the time, and it is not uncommon for him to be more talented than him and leave the NBA due to injuries.
It can be said that the Warriors took a very big risk.
But it turns out that the Warriors finally made a bet, and the bet was successful.
That contract suddenly became the most famous "child labor contract" in NBA history.
So the first thing Sun Hao did when he arrived in New York was to find Curry and ask him about his ankle.
"Tell me the truth, Stephen."
Sun Hao looked serious.
He suddenly remembered that when Curry was watching the Spurs and the Warriors game, he had asked if he wanted to come to the Warriors.
So he thought of a possibility.
"I... well, this is a guise, but except for Mr. Jerry, I have only told you."
Curry still couldn't hide words in front of the uncle Sun Hao.
Sure enough.
"So Dell doesn't even know about this?"
Sun Hao looked a little angry.
That is, he treats Curry as his nephew, and he doesn't bother to care about other people.
This kind of thing seemed to him really impulsive.
As he said at the beginning, the Curry Warriors' ascent space is too limited.
And one more point, the higher the rank, the greater the training intensity of the team.
If Curry really got a lottery edge pick, it would not be as good as the top five or even the top three picks.
"He knows that he has three people."
However, Curry's words made Sun Hao almost fall.
Boy, you math teacher can't do it!
Moreover, this unexpected answer made Sun Hao ready, suddenly he didn't know what to say.
"Dell agreed?"
In the end, he still felt a little unbelievable.
Old Curry is his former teammate, he still has some understanding of his character, not the kind of person who likes to take risks.
"He... said that my life is up to me."
"..."
It's true that Curry doesn't like adventure, but he is quite doting on his children.
And to be honest, if it were Sun Hao himself, he would like such a father.
and many more!
It seems to be taken astray!
"Mr. Jerry has promised me that he will do everything possible to choose me. He is very optimistic about me."
Curry's cute face speaks cute words.
West chose Curry, optimistic about one aspect, after all, Curry is not strong or even weak at this time.
On the other hand, it has something to do with him.
Sun Hao's disciple, no matter how you look at it, he left another bargaining chip.
But Curry had already spoken here, and Sun Hao couldn't say it anymore.
After all, it's done. If Curry himself has an idea, he can clarify it, but Curry has no idea himself, and he can't force others to do something.
Everything depends on what will happen in the draft.
With his template, even if there are potential injuries, it is not ruled out that a team will take the risk of cutting Hu.
You must know that in history, Curry was expected to go to the Knicks, but was intercepted by the Warriors with the previous pick.
So, before that time, who knows what will happen!
The next day, Sun Hao and Jerry West met, and then went to the Warriors' draft cabin.
"A few years ago, Michael was drunk and he shared one thing with us."
The draft has not yet started, West and Sun Hao chattered.
And this chat brought out some old events related to Sun Hao.
"He said the Wizards chose Yao because you gave him key advice."
Sun Hao was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh.
Good guy, when Jordan was drunk and told him out, West was there!
This made him and West feel a lot closer.
"So I invited you to come today, but also want you to give some advice during the draft."
West said with a smile.
Very kind.
And the key is that this method and this angle of entry are too comfortable.
In a sense, West is no different from Popovich, Riley, and Klaus. They are all old foxes who are scheming.
What's the difference?
Just said that, West was not there at all, he just told hearsay and then made up a story.
Who will really go into these details?
Even if you really delve into it, it's just a smile.
But their style of doing things is very different. The reason why West is respected by so many people is not just his ability.
"Our current situation is that Stephen Curry has been given draft promises in the first round."
And he went on to talk about the current state of the Warriors.
To say this directly is to treat Sun Hao as his own person, and in a sense it also allows him to directly participate in management decision-making.
"But we haven't figured out who to pick in the second round. Our current draft is too low and we can trade up if necessary."
West said that he had handed Sun Hao a booklet.
Sun Hao opened it and took a look. It was filled with some players who were predicted to have prospects for the second round of the draft this year, and some who might be selected.
West did this thing without leaking.
It's strange that you don't like dealing with such a person.
Looking at those names, many memories in Sun Hao's mind were also conjured up.
This is something he repeats every year in the draft.
Because each of these names may represent a memory in his mind.
After reading the list, Sun Hao also gave a few suggestions.
Danny Green, Patrick Beverley, and Wesley Matthews.
Zhang Tielin, mad dog, and horse legs.
These three people are all guards, and they all have one characteristic, they are all defensive, and two of them also have 3D attributes.
Even if the Warriors drafted Curry in the first round, there would not be much conflict with these people.
West just nodded, and didn't ask why there was no inside line.
And he turned around to let Mullin know what sort of pick these guys might be in and what bargaining chips they need to pay.
Sun Hao feels more comfortable~EbookFREE.me~ No, no, he feels that if he continues to stay in the house, he will sign a long-term contract with the Warriors in July.
"I'm going out to get some breath."
Sun Hao stood up as he spoke.
West did not stop either, and signaled Sun Hao to do whatever he wanted.
Out of the draft hut, Sun Hao let out a long breath.
While feeling that West was terrifying, Sun Hao felt that this was actually not a bad thing.
Because West did express respect for himself.
It's really not something ordinary people can do for a historical-level celebrity to be able to show himself so humble but still awe-inspiring.
Shaking his head, Sun Hao didn't think about things related to his summer signing. Instead, he found the place where Su Feng was and walked to sit down next to him.
At this time, the draft was about to begin, and the little green room was already full of people.
Sun Hao quickly found Curry's figure.
That baby face is so eye-catching everywhere.
Curry also quickly found Sun Hao, and was a little shy waving to him.
Shy to shy, Sun Hao soon discovered that Sun Hao's table, in addition to his father and mother, had his girlfriend Ayesha.
Curry is black, but his skin is white. In terms of appearance, although the baby face looks small, it is considered very handsome among blacks.
The world is the same everywhere, the value of the face is justice, Ren Curry started picking up girls when he was 15 years old.
Now, Old Curry is accustomed to the existence of this daughter-in-law.
So she naturally appeared on such an important occasion.
Just after the greeting here, the scene lights suddenly dimmed, then the spotlight hit the center of the stage, and Stern walked out of the background.
The draft will begin soon!
