Of course, there is another important reason why many people are optimistic about the Heat, that is, they do not think that the Heat will lose consecutive games!
The Heat and Warriors met in the Finals two consecutive years before, and the Heat lost both times. This is the third time they have met this year, so they won't lose again, right?
The Heat have three giants!
The Heat have James!
James has always claimed to be the best in the league!
If you lose in the first year, you can say that the Big Three are not getting along well enough. If you lose in the second year, you can say that the Warriors have a strong lineup. What about this year?
The Warriors traded away two important rotations during the offseason and only added two rookies, while the Heat introduced Ray Allen. This time the Heat can't say the Warriors have a stronger lineup, right?
Even if you are beaten, you should be able to withstand the beating, right?
Furthermore, the Heat have had a hard time in the playoffs this year, while the Warriors have had a smooth sailing. This is not necessarily a good thing for the Warriors!
Smooth sailing may be because the Warriors' opponents are too weak. Once they reach the finals, maybe the Warriors, who underestimated their opponents, cannot withstand the pressure and collapse?
In short, whether they are really not optimistic about the Warriors or just want to watch the excitement, there are many people who are optimistic about the Heat.
…
After arriving at Oracle Arena, the Heat rested for a night and began adaptive training the next day.
Of course, the Warriors are no exception and are preparing for war step by step.
After the training, it was time for interviews with reporters.
This link attracts the most attention every year.
The game hasn’t started yet, let’s warm up first!
The first person to be interviewed was James of the Heat.
"What's the most important thing against the Warriors?"
"Restrict Curry!" James replied: "Shoot the man before you shoot the horse, and capture the thief first. Capture the king. Curry is the leader of the Warriors. As long as Curry is restricted, we can win!"
"Compared to the previous two finals, what have been the changes between your two teams?"
"We also have a historical shooter. At the same time, my three-point threat is greater, and opponents dare not let me go!" James replied: "As for the Warriors, they left two important main players, and their strength has declined slightly.
."
"You mean your strength has increased and the strength of the warriors has decreased, so you have the upper hand?"
"That's not true, the Warriors still have the advantage in terms of lineup." James replied: "Curry's teammates are much better than my teammates!"
"Does the Heat have a good chance of winning this year?"
"Big." James answered very simply.
"Why?"
"Because I have become stronger! My three-point shooting has improved a lot this season, and the Warriors don't dare to let me go easily." James replied: "In addition, the Warriors don't have as many people playing on the court as we do. We are in physical fitness.
Take advantage."
"What do you mean? Didn't you say that the Warriors are stronger and Curry's teammates are better?"
"The Warriors have a lot of players, but they want a few of our main players!" James replied: "In this year's playoffs, the Warriors have to use several main players from their opponents in every game. At the same time, the Splash Brothers' playing time is also strictly limited.
, I think they should, definitely, and must continue to do this!”
The righteousness of James’ answer cannot be doubted!
"But the Warriors didn't say they would do the same in the finals?!"
"Since the Warriors promised to do this before, they shouldn't change their minds in the finals!" James replied: "This is about integrity. Whether it is a team or an individual, integrity is the top priority. If the Warriors don't do this, then
They just don't keep their word and are extremely shameless! At the same time, it also shows that the warriors are timid and afraid of us!!!"
Oh ho!
He is indeed the number one player in the league!
The speaking level is very high!
Before the game even started, the opponent was picked up!
It’s good to be able to talk and be shameless!
"If the Warriors agree to keep sending people, who will you choose?"
"Yao Ming, Hayward, Lowry, and Kirilenko, these four can only play a maximum of 5 minutes per game." James replied: "In addition, the Splash Brothers cannot play more than 24 minutes per game.
It’s just two periods!”
"Your request is the same as the Western Conference Finals. Isn't it a bit excessive?"
"What's too much? It's just the same, it's fair!" James replied righteously: "You can ask Deng Fang to see if he agrees."
"If the warriors really did this and you really defeated them, wouldn't it be a bit of a defeat?"
"There is no victory in the competitive arena without force!" James replied: "If Deng Fang admits that he has no integrity and admits that he is timid and scared, he doesn't have to agree, and no one will force him!"
this……
Aren't you forcing people to do this?
Isn’t it you who is talking about moral kidnapping?
Although everyone felt that what James said was quite shameless and very thick-skinned, no one objected.
The Warriors are indeed too strong. It would be good if Deng Fang agreed to James' proposal.
The league has been completely dominated by the Warriors in the past three years. It would be great if someone can defeat the Warriors and win the championship.
As for the means, it doesn’t matter!
The winner is the king and the loser is always like this!
Everyone knows how eager the former number one player in the league is to win, and it is understandable that he would use some means to win.
…
Soon it was the Warriors' turn to be interviewed.
Deng Fang is always the first to play on the Warriors' side.
"This is the third consecutive time you and the Heat have met in the Finals. How do you think this year is different from the past?"
"There is no difference. They are both 4:0. The process can be ignored." Deng Fang answered very calmly.
"Are you so confident? The Heat have strengthened themselves this year, and James' three-pointers are much more accurate than before!"
"In the face of absolute strength, it's all just clouds!" Deng Fang replied calmly: "James' three-pointers are more accurate than before, but that's just an illusion. His three-pointers can't kill anyone!"
"James said that you should continue the previous strategy and continue to reduce the playing time of the main players in the finals. What do you think of this?"
"I'm not surprised. If possible, the Splash Brothers would be happy if they didn't beat him for a minute!" Deng Fang shrugged and replied: "As long as he can win, it doesn't matter if he is shameless!"
"You mean you won't pay attention to him?"
"That's not true." Deng Fang replied: "I can agree to all his requests, but there is a precondition."
"What premise?"
"No one was injured!" Deng Fang replied: "The four of Yao Ming can only play 5 minutes each game, and the Splash Brothers can only play two quarters. This way our manpower will not be very rich. If we really want to do this, we must
Make sure no one gets hurt!"
"Everyone?"
"Yes." Deng Fang replied: "Especially the Splash Brothers. As long as one person is injured, this agreement will be void."
"Why is there such a premise? Injuries are part of the game, and no one can guarantee it. Besides, injuries to Warriors players are not necessarily caused by Heat players. Why do we have to make such an agreement? Are you afraid and want to cheat?
?”
The reporter who asked the question was from Miami, and his bias was very obvious.
"Okay, if it's not because of the injuries caused by the Heat players, it's okay to continue to fulfill the agreement, right?" Deng Fang replied: "I just want to present the audience with a wonderful finals, a finals without injuries.
,Isn’t this no problem?”
The Miami reporter shrugged and said he had no objection.
Having said that, it’s impossible to have any opinions!
