Chapter 420 Sword Finger
A TV station in San Francisco made a program to review the history of the NBA Finals.

Among them is the hottest finals of the first ten years. The time interval is not far away, and the scene of winning the championship seems to be still vivid in my mind.

The 90s that just passed were the era with the brightest stars in the entire NBA history.

Among them is Reggie Miller, the head of the Pacers who has now reached the finals.

Reggie Miller is 35 years old this year. As one of the greatest three-pointers in NBA history, Miller has never "counseled" against Jordan. Because of Jordan's existence, Miller knows how difficult it is for him to win the championship. Dare to fight is the true portrayal of Miller when facing Jordan.

Among the championship teams throughout the 90s, the strongest team was judged to be the 96 Bulls.

This year, the Bulls had an unprecedented record of 87 wins and 13 losses in the regular season and playoffs, ranking first in NBA history. The second-best team to achieve 86 wins was the Celtics in 82, which won 64 at the time.The Celtics in '67, the Sixers in '76, the Lakers in '72 and the Lakers in '87 on a pared-down list of greatest teams all fell short.

Jordan achieved the three MVPs of the regular season, the All-Star Game and the finals this year, the pinnacle of personal career achievements.

The Bulls rank first in the league in scoring at 105.2 points per game and second in defense at 92.9 points per game for a 12.2 point differential.

These cold data prove that the Bulls, which made a comeback this year, are the strongest team in the history of winning the championship in the 90s. To put it mildly, it is very likely to be the strongest team in the entire history.

In the late 90s, with Jordan's retirement, the league began to enter a state of competition.

One of the most distinctive features of the competition is that at the beginning of the season, or just entering the playoffs, you will never have an absolute voice in your heart saying that they will be the champions of this season.

It can only be "they have a high probability of winning the championship".
To put it bluntly, no one knew what the finale of this season would be. It was as if no one had expected that Qin Fei led the Warriors to eliminate all the strong opponents in the Western Conference and reach the finals.

Even now holding three match points, he will soon become an example of a single-core championship in NBA history.

Qin Fei is in exactly the same state as when the Spurs won the championship last year, led by a superstar, supported by many veterans, in addition to a group of court thugs, a coaching team with rich experience and excellent tactical guidance ability.
The entire Bay Area is like a festival, and Warriors fans can be seen everywhere drinking beer glasses and carnival in street bars.

When the media described Reggie Miller of the Pacers, he liked to use the term "one shot into the soul", but when describing Qin Fei, most of them used the word "deadly".

Qin Fei is like a bloodthirsty long knife, whether it is a straight stab or a sweep, it can exert great power.

After the G4 battle ended, Miller was interviewed by the media.

"It is undeniable that every player regards a championship ring as a lifelong pursuit. But only time will give the answer. If I can win the championship, I will be a great bastard. If I can't win the championship, I will be a pure bastard."

Miller's outstanding personality, just like his performance on the court, is like a poisonous snake hidden in the shadows, always releasing danger signals.

The walkers walked all the way, and there were thorns all over the place.

In the 96-97 season, the Pacers exchanged for Jaylen Rose, and Rick Smith missed 30 games due to injury. After the head coach Larry Brown left, the Pacers only had 39 wins and 43 losses.Miller's $290 million villa on the outskirts of the city was torched by vengeful anonymous fans, but he still returned to the court with cold-blooded three-pointers and big mouths.

In the 97-98 season, Miller averaged 19.5 points per game, the lowest value in 9 years.They still failed to make it past the Eastern Conference Finals, but that didn't stop Miller from earning hatred and respect the way he always did.In Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Bulls, Miller scored 10 of his 28 points in the last 13:0.7.Two days later, he pushed Jordan away in the last [-] seconds, hit a lore, and drove the Chicagoans to a desperate situation.

From the start of the golden generation in 96 until today, the seasons that Miller has experienced are like the epitome of his entire career: he climbed up from the ruins, and then went around provocatively with scars all over his body.

On June 6, the final G17 match was held at the Oakland Stadium as scheduled.

This night's game may determine the NBA championship for the season, so the league president David Stern also came to the scene and watched from the sidelines.

Naturally, there were no empty seats in the Oakland Stadium, and there was a lot of voices.

The starting players of both sides have not played yet, and the scene is already full of enthusiasm.

During the opening ceremony, the fans cheered with their arms raised high.

When Qin Fei came on stage, such cheers reached Dingfeng.

In the 360-degree shooting with no dead ends, Qin Fei's fans are everywhere.

Of course, it is not surprising that fans are born at the peak, and true believers can only be witnessed at dusk.

Qin Fei was not so arrogant as to think that he really won everyone's hearts. Such an aura was enough. As for the honor he brought to the team, it was actually the honor he brought to himself. The best form is when the two complement each other.

"MVP!"

The voice of the most valuable player is not small.

In the previous selection of MVP, Qin Fei lost to Shaquille O'Neal of the Lakers unsurprisingly, but at this moment, fans in the Bay Area can proudly say that their head star is also an MVP-level figure in the league.

Qin Fei waved his hand, but he didn't know who he was waving to.

But the fans were excited and felt that they had an interaction with the star.

After the appearance ceremony, the game officially began.

The Pacers jumped the ball to win.

Mark Jackson dribbled the ball halfway, and he shouted for his teammates to move.

"Block it!"

Reggie Miller yelled, Schmitz on the side covered him, Qin Fei came out to chase and defend, and then Miller retreated near the bottom line,
As soon as the man ran out, Mark Jackson's pass arrived.

He raised his hand two points, and the moment Qin Fei pounced, he had already completed his shot.

The speed of his hands was astonishingly fast. Qin Fei had already circled out to defend at the fastest speed, but he still couldn't catch up. However, Qin Fei still gave Reggie a strong pressure. In the previous few games, he defended like this.

Qin Fei turned his head and saw that the basketball had just hit the net!

The Pacers scored 2 points.

"So determined?"

Qin Fei was a little surprised. Reggie Miller came out with a cover. As a defender, he couldn't be as transparent as he was without being disturbed at all. There would definitely be less delay, but Qin Fei's movement speed was already very fast. It was not easy for Miller to make a shot, and he really made the shot.

Miller returned to the defense with a blank face, and couldn't help but want to spout some trash talk, but he held back.

Qin Fei is also a passive trash talker. He prefers to refute others on the court rather than find fault deliberately.

He stepped back into his own half and played positionally.

During the positional attack, Qin Fei received the ball, passed hands with Grant around the top of the arc to cover, then received the ball and turned around, ready to play a pick-and-roll with Big Ben on the other side.

Qin Fei was double-teamed by the Pacers. He immediately played the ball and gave it to the big book.

Daben's passing ability is average. Although he has the top movement ability among NBA insiders, it is obviously impossible for him to organize with the ball.

He made a halfway turn and gave the ball to Grant again.

At this time, the Pacers have returned to the defense, Grant turned around and missed the hook, and the rebound was taken by Schmitz.

Schmitz is not saying that he has no rebounding ability at all. With his height of 2 meters, even if he stands under the basket and stretches out his arms, that is also an absolute dam under the basket.

The reason why he grabbed few rebounds before was due to the personality of the European insider. He gave up the ball to his teammates. He didn’t have the idea of ​​desperately grabbing rebounds. On the other hand, it was also to protect his career.
The Pacers gave up the fast break and just fought in the same position.

In the next round, Reggie Miller was still out, but this time the quality of the cover was not high. Qin Fei followed Reggie Miller closely, not giving him any room to shoot.

Mark Jackson lobbed the ball to Schmitz, and Schmitz turned around and hooked. The big hook on the outside of the penalty area was still relatively far away.

Accurate hit!

The cheering momentum of the fans on the scene dropped suddenly. The Pacers were so fierce in the opening game?
The Pacers are in surprisingly good condition, while the Warriors seem to have too much distracting thoughts about winning the championship, and their performance at the beginning of the last game was unsatisfactory.

Qin Fei also missed a shot. In the opening 4 minutes, only Grant's free throws broke the scoring drought.

At this time, the Pacers had a 10-2 lead, and Carlisle called a timeout to arrange tactics.

Carlisle wanted to call a timeout when it was 8-0 before, but he finally held back deeply. When the Pacers turned around and scored two more points, he really couldn't bear it anymore and directly suspended the game.

During the first timeout of the final G5 game, various advertisers came one after another.

The camera swept across the enthusiastic fans on the scene, some of them were full of confidence in the team, and the intensity of cheering and encouragement did not decrease at all. They wanted to take off their clothes and cheer on the field.

In the front row sat a lot of celebrities, including various bigwigs in the political, economic and entertainment circles.

I used to sit in the box, but today I must sit in the front row. The front row is the golden position to watch the game, and I can witness the history of the Warriors for the first time, if they win the championship.

The camera swept across a group of ordinary men and women, and finally fixed on a pair of beautiful little sisters.

The two girls are both model-level figures. The wide Warriors No. [-] jersey covers their graceful bodies. Two white, round and slender legs protrude directly from the jerseys. The lower garment seems to be missing, and the lady's sitting posture sets off her calf more slender.
A girl with red hair and a girl with blond hair.

Helena and Mandy.

The two also came to the scene today. As Qin Fei's support team, one is sweet and the other is arrogant. They both have good looks and outstanding figures, attracting countless eyes.

However, there are quite a lot of girls cheering for Qin Fei today. These two are considered to be the top-notch girls, and there are also first-line girls who are not far from the top-notch looks, including many local female stars in California.

"Qin Fei is too annoying, attracting so many crazy bees and butterflies."

Mandy was very dissatisfied with this situation, and her heart was complicated, and she didn't know whether it was pride or sadness.

Helena is more capable now. After joining the work, she has also matured quickly, and now she is focusing on work. Apart from that, it is enough to have the people and information she cares about.

She looked at the situation on the field and was a little worried.

"Why does the Pacers seem to be better than the Warriors? Why can't the Warriors keep making shots?"

Helena has watched the game before, but she has always been ignorant, and now she is showing the status of a fake fan. Seeing that the Pacers are leading, it feels like the Warriors are not good enough.

"Qin Fei can't do it."

She muttered something behind her.

The generals of the Warriors who played this game as their last game invited their family members to watch the game. After all, if they win, they will build a simple podium at the game site and hold an enthronement ceremony.

So this is a big moment and everyone wants to share it with their loved ones.

The Warriors were in a predicament. After the opening, everyone's hands were not going well, but the Pacers looked at death like home, and they played well in the opening game, suppressing the Warriors.

"Single attack is definitely a good way, and three-pointers must not be shot for the time being."

The guests who commented also began to give advice to the Warriors.

It's not that they must support the Warriors, but it's just a way for the lagging side, which is the "commentary style" that all guests "favorite" to do.

There's no point in playing for the leading team, anyone can do the icing on the cake.

But to help the lagging team, if the coach and the guest give the same advice, and the Warriors catch up in the end, then it shows the guest’s tactical quality. If they don’t catch up, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, the solution has been provided, and the players themselves can’t score.

"drop--"

The buzzer sounded, and the two sides returned to the field.

The Warriors served from the bottom line, and Qin Fei turned directly into the ball holder and dribbled the ball across the half court by himself.

"Qin Fei started attacking with the ball?"

The host was surprised that this was slightly different from the Warriors' tactical changes he had envisioned.

Qin Fei held the ball for halftime, and Jaylen Rose rushed over immediately, sticking to Qin Fei's defense. He has not fouled in this game, so he can increase his defensive strength appropriately.

Qin Fei dribbled the ball behind his back to avoid Jaylen Rose's lunge, then caught the ball under his crotch and pulled the ball back.

Jaylen Rose was staggered and almost lost his position.

After this flash, he didn't dare to get too close to Qin Fei, his reaction speed was not enough at all.

Qin Fei dribbled the ball with his low hand, the basketball bounced twice on the ground, and switched to his right hand to take a horizontal step.

Then he passed the ball to Blaylock who came out of the wing.

Ben, who had just screened for Blaylock, immediately continued to move up to cover for Qin Fei who was off the ball. Qin Fei directly threw away Jaylen Rose in the middle, and used Ben's screen to make an air cut to the basket.

"Make it up!"

Jaylen, who was blocked, was in a hurry and yelled loudly.

Blaylock hit the ball and hit the ground to Qin Fei who made an air cut and walked in.

At this time, the Pacers had no choice but to chase and defend Qin Fei with Schmitz, who followed Big Ben, but Schmitz's pace was too slow, and Qin Fei completely killed him in front of him with one dribble.

He dribbled again with his low hand, then hugged the basketball and drew a big circle in the sky.

He directly shook Dale Davis who was defending.

Qin Fei took a big leap, bent his knees slightly and lifted off like a rocket.

At this time, both Dale Davis and Schmitz could not interfere with Qin Fei. Qin Fei turned to attack from the side, raised the basketball high, tilted his body, and replaced it with his left hand to dunk with a straight arm!
"Bang!"

The basket "buzzed" and trembled.

The fans at the scene thought it was just an ordinary attack, but they didn't expect to come back from a timeout, as if they were being exploded in front of their eyes, suddenly a bolt of lightning rushed into the inside line, completing a violent dunk!

The entire arena was silent for half a second, and then there were deafening cheers.

The cheers resounded through the arena, and seemed to pass through the arena to the outside.

Under the black night sky, the whole bay area is boiling.
