Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 609 Knights "Big Three"

The roof of the Staples Arena quickly fell with purple and gold ribbons. The Lakers players and coaches were immersed in the joy of winning the championship, hugged and celebrated, and shed tears of excitement.

Zhang Weiping and Su Qun at the commentary seat also embraced each other and wept, feeling sincerely that they have caught up with the great era.

Since then, Zhou Yu's honors have shone through the ages, winning 9 championships, 6 regular season MVPs, and 8 finals MVPs. No matter which honor is the most in history, he has become a well-deserved and undisputed "NBA History No. 1"!
The Los Angeles Lakers also broke the record of the Boston Celtics' "eight consecutive championships" in one fell swoop, becoming a unique existence in the NBA!
The next goal is "ten consecutive championships", which is also Zhou Yu's ultimate goal. If he successfully achieves it, he will immediately announce his retirement and start a new life.

With the opening of the NBA2006-2007 season, the signings of each team are basically settled.

The team that has changed the most is the Cleveland Cavaliers led by "Little Emperor" James. Through multiple transactions, they finally ushered in super power forwards "Stone Buddha" Duncan and "Son of the Wind" Nash, forming a terrifying team. "Big Three".

It is understandable for Duncan and Nash to join the Cavaliers. After being suppressed by Zhou Yu in the West for too long, they are almost depressed. They want to take advantage of their playing years to try their luck in the East and win a championship by the way.

For the Lakers, it will be more difficult to defend their title in the new season, because they are facing three top superstars in the league.

In order to ensure that Zhou Yu can participate in the playoffs in the best condition, Harris adopted a "rotational rest" strategy to allow Zhou Yu to maintain sufficient rest time.

Even so, the Lakers advanced to the playoffs with the No.3 record in the Western Conference during the regular season.

NBA2006-2007 regular season East and West rankings are as follows:

Western Division: 1. Dallas Mavericks (9 wins and 5 losses); [-]. Phoenix Suns ([-] wins and [-] losses); [-]. Los Angeles Lakers ([-] wins and [-] losses); [-]. San Antonio Spurs ([-] wins and [-] losses); [-]. Houston Rockets ([-] wins and [-] losses); [-]. Denver Nuggets ([-] wins and [-] losses); [-]. Utah Jazz ([-] wins and [-] losses); [-]. Golden State Warriors ([-] wins and [-] losses).

Eastern Division: [-]. Detroit Pistons ([-] wins and [-] losses); [-]. Cleveland Cavaliers ([-] wins and [-] losses); [-]. Chicago Bulls ([-] wins and [-] losses); [-]. Toronto Raptors ([-] [-]. Miami Heat ([-]-[-]); [-]. New Jersey Nets ([-]-[-]); [-]. Washington Wizards ([-]-[-]); [-]. Orlando Magic ([-]-[-] burden).

Dirk Nowitzki of the Dallas Mavericks was elected MVP of the regular season this season.

The Lakers are in full swing in the West, sweeping the Denver Nuggets, Phoenix Suns, and Dallas Mavericks with three "3:4" successively, advancing to the NBA Finals for the tenth time in a row.

东部的骑士队也是势不可挡，分别以“4:1”淘汰华盛顿奇才、“4:0”淘汰迈阿密热火、“4：2”战胜底特律活塞，与湖人队会师总决赛。

Before the game, although the Lakers were more optimistic, the strength of the Cavaliers should not be underestimated.

Duncan, Nash, and James formed a good chemical reaction, playing triumphant songs all the way, and they rarely met opponents.

Not long after, the first game of the finals came as scheduled. With a better regular season record, the Lakers had one more home court advantage than the Cavaliers.

Therefore, the first two games of the Finals were held at the Staples Arena, home of the Lakers, and the scene was full of people.

The starting lineups of the two teams will soon be freshly released:
Los Angeles Lakers: Point Guard: Fisher, Shooting Guard: Zhang Jinsong, Small Forward: Li Nan, Power Forward: Wang Zhizhi, Center: Yao Ming.

Cleveland Cavaliers: Point Guard: Nash, Shooting Guard: Hughes, Small Forward: James, Power Forward: Duncan, Center: Ilgauskas.

The Chinese commentators for this game are still Zhang Weiping and Su Qun.

"Director Zhang, what do you think of the Lakers' trip to the Finals? Although they have all defeated their opponents without any risk before, this time they are facing the Cavaliers with the 'Big Three'. "

Su Qun asked with interest.

"The strength of the Cavaliers is indeed very strong, but the Lakers are a 'nine-peat' dynasty team after all. Both the overall tactics and the psychological state of the players are quite mature. I think the Lakers should still have a greater chance of winning. Some."

Zhang Weiping said bluntly.

"Director Zhang is right. Whether it is Duncan or Nash, they have been defeated by Big Zhi many times. Although James has great potential, he is still young, and his experience and strength are gradually improving. The Lakers are obviously more dominant. "

Su Qun nodded and agreed.

After the scrimmage in the middle circle, Yao Ming took the lead to win the ball for the Lakers, Fisher passed the half court with the ball, and the two sides started the first round of the game.

Zhou Yu knew that Duncan's defense was good, so he deliberately raised the high position to attract him out of the basket.

With the help of Zhang Jinsong's screen, Fisher rushed inside with the ball, but was quickly blocked due to his lack of speed.

In the next second, Fisher passed the ball to Li Nan on the other side.

The main defense against Li Nan is the "little emperor" James. Facing the young James, Li Nan has no fear.

It's a pity that James' physical fitness is too good, and Li Nan's breakthrough with the ball has not received good results.

Immediately afterwards, he sent a pass to Zhang Jinsong who made an air cut to the basket. After Zhang Jinsong got the ball, he took advantage of the situation and walked up to the basket in three steps. Facing the slower-moving Ilgauskas, he made a low-handed layup. The ball is scored!

"2:0", the Lakers scored first and won a "good start".

The Cavaliers immediately organized an offense, and Nash quickly passed the half court with the ball, forming a "triangle" position with James and Duncan, and seemed to be playing a "triangle offense".

Nash dribbled the ball continuously under the crotch and picked up the speed quickly. Fisher made a mistake in judgment and was passed by Nash in one fell swoop.

Nash, who went deep into the Lakers' hinterland, was not in a hurry to make a move, but searched for his teammates' positions from the corner of his eyes.

After a wonderful pass from behind, Nash passed the ball smoothly to Duncan at a 45-degree mid-range on one side.

Duncan immediately made a mid-range shot and made a steady hit with his signature 45-degree rebound shot!
"2:2", the two sides tied.

The Lakers' new round of offense is dominated by Zhou Yu, who mentioned a high position. Zhou Yu uses various dribbles in different directions, intending to pass Duncan in one fell swoop.

It's a pity that Duncan seemed to know his moves like the back of his hand, and he didn't take Zhou Yu's fake moves, and he was still standing firmly in front of Zhou Yu.

"Wang, I have suffered from you so many times, don't I have a long memory? If you have any new tricks, just use them, and I will accompany you to the end!"

Duncan gritted his teeth while defending.

Zhou Yu had no intention of arguing with Duncan, but felt that Duncan's defensive skills had reached a new level, and it was not easy to get past the opponent.

In the next second, Zhou Yu passed the ball to Zhang Jinsong who was running horizontally to meet him, and he quickly cut to the basket.

Zhang Jinsong quickly passed the ball straight to Zhou Yu who cut to the basket in the air, and the two formed a good "two over one" interaction.

Zhou Yu jumped up after receiving the ball and directly attacked the basket. He thought it would be easy and fun for Ilgauskas to clean up the basket, but he ignored James who had been eyeing him all the time. When it comes to James' nail plate hat, he is quite embarrassing.

James, who grabbed the ball, immediately advanced with the ball and launched a fast break counterattack.
