Another reason why the entire Cavaliers team is confident is that both James and O'Neal are fully resurrected.
These two people, inside and outside, are very important to the Cavaliers!
Deng Fang actually healed the injuries of James and O'Neal. This kid is so stupid!
A healthy James is invincible!
O'Neal, who is resurrected with full health, is also unstoppable!
Deng Fang will definitely pay the price for his arrogance!
The Cavaliers are full of confidence, and the Warriors are also high in morale.
We are not like you!
Although we are No. 1 in the Western Conference and you are No. 1 in the Eastern Conference, it seems similar, but you must know that the strength gap between the Eastern and Western teams is huge.
The situation of the strong in the west and the weak in the east has existed for many years!
The Grizzlies, who are tenth in the Western Conference, might be able to rank among the top four in the Eastern Conference if they get to the Eastern Conference!
If the Cavaliers come to the West, they will probably be in the bottom half!
Want to compete with us?
Are you far behind?
Regular season results are meaningless?
Is the regular season a skirmish?
We are like this, aren’t you?
Everyone is the same, why is the record meaningless?
Besides, most of our opponents are strong teams in the Western Conference!
Even if the regular season record doesn't count, just looking at the playoff performance, the Cavaliers can't compare with us!
Except for the first round against the young Bulls, which they won 4:1, the Cavaliers played 7 games in the next two rounds!
We are two 4:0 and one is 4:1!
That 4:1 was given intentionally by us!
The regular season record is useless, what about the playoffs?
You have experience, but the Lakers don’t?
The Lakers are the defending champions, and we also swept them!
Who do you think you are?
If you meet the Lakers, you may be swept out by the Lakers!
James is great, Curry is even more amazing!
James was last year's MVP, Curry is this year's MVP!
James and O'Neal's injuries have been cured, but what if others are injured?
Will the Cavaliers owner still pay?
All our Warriors players are not afraid if they are injured!
Not a penny to pay!
Just asking are you afraid?!
So no matter how you compare, warriors are not afraid of knights!
During the interview, Deng Fang even made wild remarks:
4:0!
No suspense!
We are here just for 4:0!
As long as Curry and I are here, James will never be able to win even one game against the Warriors!
Unless... join the Warriors!
Facing James' team, it is impossible for the Warriors to lose a game!
It is the same now and it will be the same in the future!
Although Deng Fang kept arrogant and made big words frequently, it was still shocking to say such words before the finals!
No matter what, the Cavaliers are still first in the Eastern Conference!
James is the best in the league!
At least that's what Stern thinks!
Generally speaking, before the series starts, the coaches of both teams are full of poisonous milk.
Don’t say whether it’s useful or not, at least you won’t anger the other party!
It’s rare to see someone like Deng Fang so unscrupulous in provoking his opponents!
But that’s okay, the finals are becoming more and more interesting!
Not to mention anything else, the ticket price alone is staggering!
The ticket price for this year’s finals is more than double that of last year!
The number of seats on the sidelines has tripled or quadrupled!
The Warriors boss is overjoyed!
Cohan never dreamed before the season started that the Warriors would make the playoffs!
Making it to the playoffs makes Cohan so happy!
I didn’t expect to reach the finals now!
The ticket revenue alone is tens of millions!
Not to mention broadcast revenue and sponsorship fees!
All this is because of Deng Fang!
In Cohen's eyes, Deng Fang is a cornucopia!
As long as Deng Fang said it, Cohan would not hesitate and just do it!
Although the salary Deng Fang received was already ridiculously high, Cohan had nothing to say.
That’s what they deserve!
No matter which company, as long as you can create enough profits for your boss, you will be the boss!
…
After waiting for three or four days, the much-anticipated finals finally arrived.
At 8 pm on June 3, the first finals game between the Cavaliers and Warriors started on time at Oracle Arena.
After waiting for many years to finally see their home team reach the finals, Warriors fans are very excited!
Not only did they reach the finals, but they also had home court advantage. Playing the first game right in front of their own home was an incredible feeling!
Before the game time, the Oracle Arena was already buzzing with gongs and drums, and the crowd was buzzing.
In order to prepare for the Finals, the Cavaliers flew to Golden State overnight after playing the tiebreaker with the Magic.
From May 31st to June 3rd, the Cavaliers had four days of rest.
The Warriors have been resting since the 23rd.
A whole 11 days!
It has to be said that the Warriors definitely have the upper hand in terms of physical reserves.
During this period, the Warriors did nothing else except watch Cavaliers videos and practice targeted tactics.
Deng Fang has given instructions many times, don't worry about the Magic team, just look at the Cavaliers' tactics!
Every player must keep in mind the characteristics of the player he is playing against.
The goal of the coaching staff is also very simple, which is to study the Cavaliers.
What if the Magic make it to the Finals?
impossible!
Deng Fang doesn’t think the Magic have any chance of reaching the finals!
Of course, Deng Fang is not afraid if the Magic beat the Cavaliers.
If playing against the Cavaliers is not difficult, then playing against the Magic can be said to be stress-free!
Even the defending champion can be swept away, so what's a magic trick?
The Magic were even more powerful in last year's finals, but weren't they swept out by the Lakers 4:1?
Therefore, the Warriors' preparation goal is very clear, that is the Cavaliers!
What are the characteristics of James?
Is O'Neal afraid of a double attack?
How good is Anthony Parker's breakthrough ability? Which direction is he accustomed to?
Where is Xiao Mo's shooting hot zone, and are there many breakthroughs?
If James comes to guard Curry, how should we respond?
…
The Warriors have made detailed statistics on all these problems and provided countermeasures.
Don’t fight an unprepared battle!
Deng Fang said, never lose a game!
Although Deng Fang often spoke wildly, he rarely made mistakes.
There is no way, the Warriors can win most of the games, and of course most of Deng Fang's lies come true.
Compared to the Warriors, the Cavaliers' preparations are much more hasty.
After the game on the night of the 30th, the Cavaliers flew to Golden State overnight.
Seven games and the intensity of the playoffs are not easy for anyone.
What's more, the Cavaliers and Celtics also played 7 games before!
Although Deng Fang cured James' illness and James' physical fitness was very sufficient when he was first cured, he played nearly ten games after that!
James has always been the focus of attention from his opponents!
Especially in the two games after O'Neal was injured, James was even more stressed.
So James' physical condition is not very good.
The same goes for O'Neal.
Although James consumes a lot, he is young after all, only 26 years old!
O'Neal is different, he is already 38 years old!
After Deng Fang treated O'Neal's injury, O'Neal actually fought hand-to-hand with Howard for two games!
Even though he was resurrected with full health at the beginning, O'Neal's physical energy bar is not full now.
