: Seven hundred and eighty-seven: "being villain" again

  One day after the Grizzlies eliminated the Spurs, the Heat eliminated the Pacers. As a result, the Grizzlies and the Heat met again in this summer after last year.
  This is the first time since the Bulls and Jazz in the 97-98 season in the NBA that two teams have met in the Finals for two consecutive years.
  Nba history, there are not many instances where two teams have met in the finals for two consecutive years. In the past 30 years, it has only appeared 4 times, and this is the fifth time for the Heat and Grizzlies.
  81-82 and 82-83 seasons, the shoti Lakers led by "Magic" and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played against 76 players with Moses Malone and "Dr. J" in the finals for two consecutive years! The Lakers won the title first, but the 76ers completed their revenge the following year, and the two sides were tied.
  Later, the Shoti Lakers established their dominance, relying on 9 years and 5 championships instead of two duels with the 76ers.
  After this, it is the classic "black and white hegemony" era. In the 83-84 and 84-85 seasons, the Celtics and the Lakers also met in the Finals for two consecutive years. "Magic" vs. "Big Bird" was the most beautiful scenery of the NBA in that era. This was also the duel between the two greatest superstars before Jordan appeared.
  The final result is also that the Lakers and Celtics won once. Of course, the Lakers met the Celtics again in the NBA Finals and defeated them in the 86-97 season. However, due to the gap of one year, the two sides did not set a record of meeting in the finals for three consecutive years.
  Later, it was the Lakers and the "Bad Boys" Pistons that divided the world. The result was the same, the Pistons and the Lakers each won a championship.
  Finally, it was the battle between Jordan and the Jazz in 96-97 and 97-98. But this time, the "tradition" of winning one championship each was broken by Jordan. Jordan defeated the Jazz for two consecutive years and completed his second three consecutive titles. At the same time, it also established its unshakable historical position.
  And Karl Malone and John Stockton have become the two largest supporting roles in NBA history.
  Facts have proved that if two teams have met in the finals consecutively, if one of them wants to not be eliminated by this era, at least one has to win a championship.
  The Heat have lost once last year, so for James this year, he has no retreat!
  He knows that if he loses again this year, he will become the second Karl Malone!
  Is Karl Malone great? There is no doubt that he is one of the greatest players in nba history.
  Selected as the best first team for 11 consecutive years, selected as the best defensive team for 3 consecutive years, 14 times as All-Star, 2 regular season vp, one of the NBA 50 superstars, second place in NBA history!
  Karl Malone has won countless honors, and his story is endless for three days and three nights.
  However, even so, Karl Malone is still not the greatest. The reason is simple. He lost to Jordan in the finals for two consecutive years. He has not created his own era.
  His honors are more like to set off Jordan's greatness!
  James does not want people to mention himself in the future, the first reaction is Link's number one background board.
  In any case, James will have to win this year. Even if the Heat have completed 2 championships in 3 years, it is a very remarkable achievement!
   But if it turns into 4 finals and only wins 1 time, then it is completely irrelevant to greatness.
  So, James will definitely not let the Grizzlies succeed!
  After the conference finals, James seemed to have evaporated. Except in the training hall, the reporters rummaged across the entire South Coast to find Miami upside down, but James was not visible.
  It is not difficult to see James’ determination, James will not relax himself before he wins the O’Brien Cup for the second time.
  There is no doubt that what James did has given the Heat fans great confidence. They believe that once James, who is still the first player in the league, is 100% invested, no one on this planet can stop him, even if it is a full vp!
  Bill Simmons seems to have also seen the chance of a comeback, so he hastened to stand up and publicly expressed in his column that he is more optimistic about the Heat winning the championship.
   "Many people think that LeBron's strength is already below Link. I feel deeply sorry for this kind of person. Because if you learn more about LeBron, you won't appear so ignorant."
"Since the start of the playoffs, James' efficiency rating has reached 3122, ranking first in the league! His true shooting percentage is also as high as 664, the highest of all starters who averaged at least 30 minutes per game. He averaged. Using the opponent's turnover to score 55 points, ranked second, average fast break score of 49 points ranked fourth, averaging 117 points per game in the penalty area ranked fourth. In addition, James shot 813 in the three-second zone. In three Ranked first among players with at least 50 shots in the second zone. On the offensive end, James is not only efficient, but also extremely lethal."
  "It's a pity that the NBA only has regular season vp and finals vp. Unfortunately, they don't have such awards as playoffs vp. If there is, believe me, the winner must be LeBron!"
  Bill Simmons's style is the same as before. Although he is a sunspot, he is never blind. All the data he enumerated are true. Facts have proved that James is indeed still one of the most dominant players in the league.
  And Link? While James was preparing for the war, reporters took pictures of Link and the mysterious woman walking in the mall
  In the photo, Link, wearing sunglasses and a peaked cap, is strolling leisurely in the mall with a slender woman who also wears sunglasses. In this situation, it was as if the Grizzlies had been eliminated and Link had begun his vacation.
  After this photo was released, it caused an uproar among the fans.
  Link's "lazy" state before the finals undoubtedly made his villain image more popular.
  It is self-evident that a player who is serious about preparing for the game and who is active and sunny and a player who does not work hard before running out and wandering around is more positive.
   "I think this kid is floating, right? Does he think he can definitely win the championship?"
  "Hahahaha, it seems that the Miami Heat is a winner. Come on, LeBron, give this kid some color!"
  "The hero is sad for the beauty level. No matter who this woman is, Link will be ruined on her. Look at the players who interact with the Kardashian women and you will know what Link will end."
   "The Grizzlies are simply self-defeating, LeBron, come on, it's time for Link to suffer a bit!"
  On the Internet, Miami fans cheered. When Link went out to go shopping, they were just like celebrating the festival, just like setting off fireworks on Miami Street.
  And those fans who want the Grizzlies to roll over are also happy to see this. They are very willing to see that Link pays for his laziness and underestimation of the enemy.
  The Grizzlies fans are naturally trying their best to maintain Link, the city hero, but to be honest, Link’s leisurely state before the finals also worried the Grizzlies fans.
  It's just that the Grizzlies fans didn't complain.
  Looking at the comments about himself on the Internet, Link couldn't help crying. Yes, this time, I was "by the villain" again.
   "I'm obviously obedient, OK, why I'm a rat crossing the street again." Link sat on the sofa and couldn't help but complain.
The reason why he came out leisurely in the past two days is because the chief physiotherapist of the Grizzlies and the "secret weapon" Kobe gave Link to Link last summer, Ms. Judy Seto said that Link's muscles have been too much recently. Nervousness should be related to the intense playoff games.
  This year, because the Grizzlies are going to break a 72-win record, in 82 regular season games, Link played full time and didn't miss a game. Even in the last moments of the regular season, Link did not get a chance to rest.
  After 82 games, Link immediately tried his best to fight 13 games in the playoffs.
  Don’t look at the Grizzlies losing only one game in three rounds. It seems that winning is particularly easy. But in fact, if Link hadn't tried his best every game, the Grizzlies wouldn't be able to play such a devastating offensive.
  This seemingly easy score is based on the efforts of everyone.
  In this way, Link didn't have a good rest for almost the entire season. Even during the All-Star Weekend, Link also participated in the dunk contest and the race.
  So, Seto suggested that Link take a good rest before the finals. Otherwise, in the more intense finals, there may be a risk of injury.
   As soon as he heard the word "injured", Georgel waved his hand and cancelled all Link's additional training and special training.
  Except for the team’s basic recovery training and tactical drills, Link is not allowed to participate in any high-intensity training.
  And these days, Georgel himself has not arranged a heavy training task. If a team has to hold back before the start of the finals, then it is really over.
  So, the Grizzlies basically finished training at two or three in the afternoon these days.
  So, after the early end of the training every day, Link will be fine. In this regard, he himself is still depressed. It's a good time, because I'm connected with the word "lazy" on the Internet.
   "No way, who made your image of a bad person go deep into your bones?" Link came up, and Rachel Demita, the "woman in sunglasses" in the photo, couldn't help laughing.
  Rachel came to Memphis with the TV station~EbookFREE.me~ She will appear as a sideline reporter in the first two matchups of the finals this year.
   Therefore, Rachel can finally be together with Link Gianke before the holidays this year. In the past two days, she has lived directly in Link's house.
  After training yesterday, she and Link went out for a stroll. As everyone knows, there was such a big turmoil.
   "Am I so bad?" Link dropped the phone. If he read more of the comments on himself on the Internet, he would almost feel that he is innocent.
   "It's not like."
   "Then I will be scolded even if I go shopping."
"Because they are afraid of you, they can only find psychological comfort from this aspect. They comfort themselves, but Link is not training seriously. They comfort themselves, Link is underestimating the enemy. To put it bluntly, they are just looking for someone who can defeat you. That's the possibility."
   "As expected of a famous hostess, she speaks well. But it doesn't matter. The finals are still three days away. After three days, they will know if I am lazy."
  Link curled his lips. Instead of worrying about it, he might as well enjoy the short leisure time before the finals. Following the instructions of the physiotherapist and the head coach can be considered serious preparations.
  Link believes that Kobe’s "secret weapon" will definitely not be stunned.
