The finals between the Lakers and Cavaliers has attracted countless attention even before it begins.

As we all know, the format of the finals is a 7-game, 4-win system.

According to common sense, it should be at least five or six games.

But since Shen Huan landed in the NBA, he has never played in the fifth game.

All of his playoff games were resolved 4:0, no matter what kind of tough enemy he encountered.

This was true for last year's finals, and even more so for this year's more dangerous Western Conference finals.

Facing the Golden State Warriors, whose strength had not diminished at all and also added a superstar like Durant, Shen Huan still defeated them 4:0 and successfully joined the Cavaliers in the finals.

So after the game between the Lakers and the Golden State Warriors, sports experts from ESPN and TNT issued a poll.

As a result, a total of 133 people voted, and 123 people believed that the Lakers will definitely win the finals.

105 of them even believed that Shen Huan would continue his direct miracle and beat the Cavaliers 4:0.

This is a bit worrying.

Why did the Cavaliers play a total of six games before winning? These psychological factors are also very important.

As a result, James had to cheer for his team when he was being interviewed.

"I know that the Lakers are stronger than last year, and I also know that after more than a month of competition, Shen Huan's condition has reached its peak and is as strong as last year.

But in addition to hard power, what the Cavaliers have is an unyielding fighting spirit. The preparations I made in the past year were just to fight Shen Huan again, and now the opportunity has come!

If Shen Huan can lose once in the NBA, then I also hope that I gave it to him!"

As soon as James said his words, Cavaliers fans retweeted them everywhere, with a look of "I'm not afraid of you."

But this feeling makes people feel a bit bluffing and emboldens themselves.

In particular, ESPN’s Kenny Smith caught his last sentence to judge: “LeBron said that he hopes to give Shen Huan a defeat. Does this mean a loss in a game, or a loss in the finals?

If it's the latter, I have to say that LeBron is too arrogant. Anyone who knows a little bit about football knows that it is impossible for the Cavaliers to defeat the Lakers.

But if it’s the former, then isn’t it a bit too tragic for LeBron to do this? He only wants one victory. Is this the current number one superstar in our NBA?”

Kenny Smith's words spread throughout the United States.

James, a good-tempered person, couldn't help but scold his mother in private.

I thought, I said this, but don’t point it out, am I still shameless?

Compared to the Cavaliers' encouragement, the Lakers actually didn't make any high-profile remarks.

Not even Kobe Bryant, the Black Mamba, said anything.

Because he knows that the victory must belong to the Lakers, so he just needs to adjust his condition and play 4 games seriously.

All words can wait until after winning the championship.

The only thing he regrets is that Kobe is testing Shen Huan again in the past few days whether he wants to stay in the NBA and play in the playoffs for another year.

Such three consecutive championships would rank fourth in history, second only to the Celtics, Lakers and Bulls of that year.

Although the Lakers have had such a dynasty, the emergence of this dynasty in their own hands is definitely something worth bragging about for a lifetime.

However, Shen Huan still refused.

Winning three consecutive championships is certainly good, but Shen Huan doesn't think it's that precious.

In the next year, he will not only be busy doing further research on agriculture, but also the extraction of graphene and various development applications, which will take a lot of time.

If it happens again like this year, a total of 5 months of delay will be a waste of life.

Iverson didn't speak for Kobe.

In fact, he will retire after next year. If Shen Huan can win three consecutive championships, he himself can also have such glory.

But Iverson is not the kind of person who forces his brother to do things he doesn't want to do just for the sake of glory.

He respected Shen Huan's decision, but at the same time he hated himself a little for not having the habit of taking a helicopter to the training ground and the stadium.

Otherwise, it would be legitimate for Shen Huan to propose it, just like persuading Kobe to voluntarily play for a year. How good would it be?

All right.

These are all digressions.

On the day when the first game of the Finals came, the first game was at the Lakers' home court.

For the 8:30 pm game, traffic in downtown Los Angeles was paralyzed as early as 5 pm.

It was only through the urgent dispatch of many police forces that everyone could arrive at Staples Arena one after another.

Needless to say, the tickets for the finals are, in one word, expensive!

It's so expensive that even many loyal Lakers fans can't help but resell the tickets they grabbed, thereby earning the equivalent of their own income for 2-3 years.

Ordinary fans can only buy the seats at the back, or temporary seats.

The really expensive ones are on the first floor, 20 rows in front.

Everyone sitting here comes from a family worth hundreds of millions, or is a celebrity with an annual income of tens of millions.

Some celebrities may not have a high income, but they still gritted their teeth and bought high-priced tickets and sat in conspicuous positions.

This kind of exposure makes them feel that they can definitely make money back.

After the warm-up, the fans behind Shen Huan were no longer just a few young ladies. They all sat a little further back.

Sitting behind Shen Huan is the general manager of a hedge fund company.

However, he did not talk about fund investment with Shen Huan, but talked with Shen Huan about how to target the Cavaliers with great interest.

This manager knew football. He analyzed the tactics he had imagined for Shen Huan, and he was so excited that Shen Huan didn't find it funny.

Of course, there are still lucky people in this game.

During the last game against the Golden State Warriors, the fans who stood up for Shen Huan and beat up the man who snatched the child's things were also sitting in the arena today.

Although it is not the best location and is a bit out of the way, they are very satisfied.

The price of a game ticket has skyrocketed to 50,000 to 60,000, and when the Lakers can still fulfill their promise and let them watch the finals, they are already satisfied.

Not to mention that Shen Huan also gave everyone a pair of sneakers signed by him in advance. Such gifts made them feel that their efforts were worth it.

Even before the Lakers and Cavaliers warmed up, the lights and cameras were focused on them, and the DJ enthusiastically introduced them to everyone and praised their behavior.
