Chapter 1094 Winners and Losers
Swept, the Storm team even swept the Trail Blazers. At the beginning of the season, many people also regarded the Trail Blazers as the favorites to win the championship!
And last year's big team, this year only added a former All-Star insider Olajuwon and a Chinese rookie, and they even passed the first round of the playoffs, and they still seem to have some spare energy.
Three days later, Paul Allen still remembered that after the game, Feng Yu called and asked him to have dinner to celebrate.
He hated it so much that his teeth were itching, he never imagined that his team had more stars, higher wages, and paid luxury tax, yet he still lost! That idiot team manager must be fired, and the coach must also be fired, not as good as the previous Adelman!
However, he also cursed Feng Yu that he would never make it to the finals, not even the second round of the Spurs!
What he never expected was that the Storm team won again in the second round. This time it's not Olajuwon's explosion, but Carter and Pierce's explosion. These two blasted the Spurs outside. In the second round of the series, both of them even averaged more than 25 points per game! The shooting percentage is over 50%, this is the playoffs.
To be honest, Feng Yu was also very surprised. He didn't expect the young man to rush forward, which is quite impactful. As for Rodman, this guy, once the playoffs came, his defensive strength immediately improved to a higher level.
Next, it turned out to be the Los Angeles city derby, which was vigorously promoted by the league.
Storm vs. Lakers!
Originally, many people were optimistic about the Lakers. Even at the beginning of the playoffs, many people put the Lakers' championship odds first.
But the Storm Team came up with the attitude of a dark horse all the way, which makes people really dare not underestimate it. What's more, although the big fat man is very dominant in the basket, he may not be able to dominate Olajuwon. After all, the big fat man entered the finals for the first time, and he was taught by Olajuwon to be a man!
In fact, Feng Yu was not too optimistic about his team's victory. The big fat man was at his peak at this time, and no one could defend against him alone. But fortunately, the Lakers' outside line is not good, and Kobe has not yet grown to the killing mode. Others are not very good at defending.
"Guys, do you have the confidence to beat the Lakers? This arena is called the Wind and Rain Arena. If the Lakers win, our entire team will be ashamed." Feng Yu said, clapping his hands.
Everyone was silent, coach Carl said: "Boss, don't worry, I have a way to deal with that big fat man, just like the way the Spurs dealt with him last year. Don't forget, we have several substitute insiders."
Shark hacking tactics!
The big fat man just made free throws a little bit worse, otherwise his achievements would be even higher.
"In these few games, we will mainly attack from outside. And we have to play fast, that big fat man can't run anymore." George Karl, the tactic he is best at is also defensive counterattack. Getting these players now is even more powerful. What's more, Olajuwon is the kind of player with his own system.
"Very good, if you can win the championship this year, I will definitely not be relentless when offering contract extensions in the future. The luxury tax is nothing to me. What I want is to win!"
The eyes of Carter, Pierce and others lit up. What they are most worried about is that after the contract expires, they can only renew one contract. If they can both stay and get a big contract, that would be better of course. The strength of each other is still very much recognized.
And Lewis, Billups, Alston and others also secretly made up their minds that they must fight this year, for the big contract... ahem, for the championship!
"Big Zhi, you haven't played much in these games, do you have any thoughts?" Feng Yu asked.
Dazhi was a little shy: "I don't have any ideas,
I'm going to work on my defense and get my speed up. "
Big Zhi's defense is below the average line, not as good as those blue-collar insiders. If it weren't for his good shooting skills, George Karl wouldn't let him play at all.
While Feng Yu was encouraging the players on the team, Paul Allen made a big bet with a gambling company that buying the Lakers would win the championship, and then called Feng Yu.
It happened that Kirilenko was also nearby. He asked Feng Yu, how much did Paul Allen buy, one million dollars? OK, I'll buy the $2 million one, and the Storm will win the championship!
Feng Yu thought for a while, and bought two million, betting that his team would win. Team owners are not allowed to gamble, but Feng Yu and the others use other people's names, such as Ralph.
After learning that Feng Yu and Kirilenko both bought the Storm team to win, Paul Allen looked disdainful. These two people don't understand football at first glance.
Who can guard against that fat guy in Los Angeles? More than 30 points and more than ten rebounds in a game, and you haven't blown your inside line yet. If the Lakers didn't sell it, I would have bought it long ago. Olajuwon, it would be okay if he was five years younger, but now, he is definitely not the opponent of that fat man!
Since Feng Yu sold Microsoft's stock, Microsoft's stock price has been falling all the way. Although the decline is not large, and after the release of the new system this year, it has risen a little, but overall it has fallen a bit.
And this Feng Yu didn't know how to find out that Enron's financial fraud made Enron's blue-chip stock plummet, causing the stocks of many related companies to fall accordingly.
Coupled with the overall decline in Internet technology stocks, it seems that Microsoft's market value will shrink a lot this year.
All of this is Feng Yu's fault!
So Paul Allen will not miss any opportunity to ridicule Feng Yu, he will let Feng Yu know that it is useless for the team you bought at a high price to poach an All-Star with a high salary!
...
The big fat man glared at the blue-collar center forward of the Storm Team. It's only been a while. You have committed four offenses, so you can't defend normally? What are you doing pulling my arm? Every game is like this, can you still play basketball?
But the blue-collar center stared at him unceremoniously, and muttered: "I guess you dare not do it, you coward!"
This is a tactic arranged by George Karl to irritate the fat man and disrupt his rhythm.
The big fat man has passed the impulsive age, holding back his anger... and missed two free throws. Then watching Rodman grab the rebound and hand it to Billups, Billups made a long pass, Carter took three steps directly, and the Tomahawk dunked!
When Carter passed by Kobe, he also said: "Hey, how does it feel to be someone's little brother?"
So Kobe fell into the singles mode again, destroying the overall tactics of the Lakers, but at this time Carter's physical fitness was quite strong, and Kobe's jumper was not accurate today, so the point difference was further widened.
The coach who looked a lot like Grandpa KFC also looked depressed at this time. He lost to the Spurs last year, and this year he lost to the Storm Team. Can't this fat man practice free throws well? Did I tell you, don't foul Olajuwon, why don't you listen!
That Kobe is not as strong as Jordan, but he has the same disease as Jordan, conceited! Always stuck in singles mode, don't you know that when Jordan played infinite singles, he never made it to the finals?
When the halftime whistle was heard, Feng Yu really wanted to laugh up to the sky, the Lakers were actually defeated by them!
The remaining Pacers are also an outside team. At this time, Olajuwon is superb again! Even if he has old arms and legs and doesn't score many points, he can still blow up the Pacers' inside line! Let them dare not make casual moves after fouling, and Carter, Pierce and others can attack the inside line wantonly.
Four to two, the Los Angeles Storm team, unexpectedly this year's dark horse all the way to the end, won the NBA championship!
At this moment, Coach Carl and others were crying with joy. This was their first championship trophy. Feng Yu had an unbelievable expression, and then laughed wildly, and he really won.
Kirilenko laughed excitedly: "Feng, we won, we won!"
What he was excited about was not the little money he earned from gambling, but the fact that he won the bet with Paul Allen! That proud old guy, he has long been displeased!
Paul Allen stared blankly at the TV, and it was the scene of the Storm team celebrating. This was the first championship trophy in the history of the team, and it was only the second year after Feng Yu took over the team! At this moment, although Feng Yu was wearing sunglasses, he could still see the corners of his mouth curled up, and he looked like a winner in life, which made him tremble all over with anger.
Kuang~~ A puff of black smoke came out of Paul Allen's television set.
Could it be that compared with Feng Yu, I am really a loser in life?
