Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

The Eastern and Western Conference Finals have ended, but the NBA atmosphere is getting more and more heated, and people are looking forward to the arrival of the finals.

The finals of the past two years have been very exciting, especially the duel between Zhuang Yu and Kawhi Leonard has become the focus of discussion.

The popularity of this finals even exceeded that of the past two years.

One reason is that there is a "China Derby" in this finals. Zhuang Yu from the Lakers and Zhou An from the Nets are two Chinese players who are good brothers in private, and they will face off in the finals.

This naturally became the focus of discussion among people, especially the Chinese football fans, who were extremely excited and could not wait any longer.

This situation is somewhat unfamiliar to Chinese fans, but it is a scene they have longed for and dreamed of countless times.

But even when Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian were both in the NBA, this situation never happened.

Not only did our Chinese players make it to the NBA Finals, but two players made it to the NBA Finals at the same time, which is definitely a grand event.

Every Chinese fan does not want to miss this historic moment.

Who said that Chinese basketball will never reach its peak after Yao Ming?

The glory of the past belongs to the past, the glory of the present belongs to the present, and even greater stories seem to be coming... How can it not be exciting?

In addition to the duel between Zhuang Yu and Zhou An, there are also superstars such as Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving who are familiar to countless fans.

It can be said that the attention received in this finals may be second only to the Warriors vs. Cavaliers in 18.

Some reporters also took action, looking for opportunities to interview players from the Lakers and Nets, hoping to get some interesting news materials.

This kind of interview is also a good thing for NBA officials, as it can further build momentum for the finals and increase the popularity of the finals.

For this, the NBA even privately told the Lakers and Nets to arrange for their players to be interviewed.

There is naturally nothing much to say about the two teams. They make money and everyone likes it.

Someone from the Lakers quickly accepted the interview, it was Lopez.

During the interview, he expressed his great anticipation for the finals. The Nets are a strong team and he is excited to play against such a team.

A bunch of clichés made the reporter complain in his heart, feeling a little unhappy. What you said is all nonsense, this is not what we want to hear.

Of course, there aren't too many gimmicks or highlights about Lopez.

The reporters still focused their attention on Zhuang Yu.

When Zhuang Yu was being interviewed, a group of reporters came up and asked, "Zhuang Yu, who do you think is better, you or Durant?"

Suddenly, everyone's eyes lit up.

In the past 10 years, Jankudu has been the focus of the entire league and the league's top player.

It was not until the rise of Zhuang Yu in recent years that the situation of the three-way competition among Zhan Kudu was changed, and he became a presence on par with Zhan Kudu.

After three consecutive championships, Zhuang Yu even surpassed Zhan Kudu and was hailed as the number one player in the league.

However, the popularity and achievements accumulated by James, Kudos and Durant in the past 10 years will not be erased. In the hearts of many people, they are still the strongest players in the league.

Zhuang Yu smiled and said, "KD has always been my favorite player. He has excellent skills, amazing talent, and a passion for basketball. Everyone knows that he is a basketball fanatic and a pure basketball player. I think..."

After hearing these clichés, Ji Zhu couldn't help but feel a sour taste in his mouth, and quickly interrupted: "No, no, no, I just want to know who do you think is better, you or Durant? Please answer me directly?"

Oh......

Zhuang Yu remained calm and replied, "You know, KD and I have different styles. I don't have his height and wingspan, but I'm faster than him, and..."

Come again?

The reporter was devastated, thinking, I just want to create some hype, why do you always talk to me about this nonsense?

At this time, another reporter stood up and said, "Zhuang, I think what this brother wants to ask is, putting aside the differences in position and talent, in terms of scoring ability, who do you think is better between you and Durant? Who is the real scoring king?"

This statement is very straightforward and sharp.

Having said that, Zhuang Yu was no longer polite: "Well, KD is the scoring champion, and his scoring ability is top-notch in the entire league, but... I also happen to be very knowledgeable about scoring, and I believe I will not lose to him."

In the end, Zhuang Yu finally gave in. We Chinese people are humble.

However, the reporter had already understood what he meant, and his eyes lit up: "So you think your scoring ability is better than KD's?"

Zhuang Yu smiled without saying anything. It’s okay if you want to report it this way. I won’t say it, but if we really compare, I’m not afraid of KD.

Who hasn’t won the scoring title yet?

If Zhuang Yu hadn't reduced his personal shots during that period in the middle of this season in order to allow Holiday, Lopez and Clarkson to compete for the All-Star Game, his scoring would have surpassed Bradley Beal long ago.

Although Zhuang Yu broke out again for a period of time later and his personal scoring data reached 30.8 points, it was still a little less than Bill's 31.3 points and failed to win the scoring title this season.

Even so, he has won the scoring title three times in the past few seasons, which is only one less than Durant's four scoring titles.

In addition, Zhuang Yu's average points per game in the three seasons when he won the scoring title were all over 30 points, while Durant's average points per game in two of his four seasons were less than 4 points.

What's more, since the 13-14 season, Durant's average points per game have not been able to reach 30 points, while Zhuang Yu has averaged more than 5 points per game for five consecutive seasons.

Who is better in scoring ability?

The reporter then asked Zhou An.

This can be said to be one of the highlights of this final. Everyone knows the relationship between Zhou An and Zhuang Yu, so it will naturally be brought up for discussion.

A reporter asked, "How do you feel about facing Zhou An in the finals?"

"What do you think?" Zhuang Yu said with a smile, "Needless to say, of course I will beat him to death."

Uh......

A group of reporters were a little confused. No, you should have been so awesome a long time ago. You were so humble when I asked you about Durant just now. Why aren’t you the same now?

A group of reporters looked at Zhuang Yu and thought to themselves, “We still like your rebellious side, otherwise we wouldn’t have any material for the report.”

The reporter who asked the question earlier came to his senses and asked, "No, aren't you and him from the same compatriot? And I heard that you have a very good relationship and are good brothers?"

Zhuang Yu said: "We are indeed good brothers. We were teammates in high school. We have supported and encouraged each other over the years. We have come to the NBA together and are about to enter the NBA Finals together. This makes me very excited."

"But, competition comes first, brothers come second."

Uh......

A group of reporters didn't know what to say.

You said competition comes first and brothers come second, what else can we say?

There were also reporters who reacted quickly and thought about interviewing Zhou An tomorrow and telling him what he had said to see what his expression was.

Haha, that must be interesting.

Given the relationship between Zhuang Yu and Zhou An, there is naturally no need for politeness. He will not let Zhou An off in the finals and will definitely strike back with a strong punch.

Of course, we must strike hard at people like Durant and Irving, but since we are not that familiar with each other, Zhuang Yu still needs to be restrained when speaking.

Soon, “Competition first, brothers second” became a hot search.

Chinese fans couldn't help but laugh when they found out.

"Haha, Zhuang Yu is so interesting."

"Why didn't he just say he was a brother before he came to chop me? Haha, if Zhou An knew that, he would be very sad. This is so funny."

"Why are you so sad? A reporter interviewed Zhou An before, and Zhou An also said that if he met the Lakers in the finals, he would definitely fight back hard. He also said that the Lakers have won three consecutive championships, so they should give up the championship title."

"Tsk tsk, now I'm looking forward to it even more..."

Zhuang Yu's speech did not cause any disgust among the people, but instead made people look forward to the finals even more.

This is competitive sports, not a dinner party. In the end, there has to be a winner. Once on the field, it is like a battlefield. How can there be any room for affection?

On the field, the greatest respect is to give your all!

......

On the other side, Zhou An also saw the news, but just smiled. He was not angry. Instead, he felt very expectant and looking forward to it, and his fighting spirit became stronger.

The reporter soon asked the same question when interviewing Zhou An, and Zhou An's answer was the same as Zhuang Yu's - competition first, brothers second.

The conversation between the two people across space has become a hot topic among fans and has also raised the popularity of the finals to a new level.

......

Finally, the finals are here.

Los Angeles is very lively today, and the outside of the Staples Center is crowded with people.

They were not waiting to enter the stadium, because the fans who bought tickets had already entered the venue, and those who were gathered outside were those who failed to buy tickets.

It's just that there are too many people and it looks exaggerated.

All kinds of noise and discussions mixed together and formed a torrent, drowning out the sound of car horns on the road.

The Staples Center was packed.

There was almost no empty seat in the huge stadium, which shows how exciting and lively today's game was, attracting more than 20,000 fans.

Amid the fans' anticipation, players from both sides came on the field one after another.

Boos and cheers alternated and it took a long time for them to subside.

Zhuang Yu walked towards the Nets players, first hugged Zhou An, and then greeted Durant, Irving and others.

This is not over yet.

There are so many people coming today, and many relatives and friends are here.

Including Zhou Zhiming, Zhou An's parents, Zhuang Yu's parents, father-in-law, mother-in-law, as well as Yang Jinsong, Anna, Kobe's family, Yao Ming's family, Xiao Qingyang also came to the scene, and brought his girlfriend... a petite girl, who made Zhuang Yu couldn't help but hit Xiao Qingyang twice. You guy finally got it.

After greeting his relatives and friends one by one, Zhuang Yu went on stage to warm up.

When the players from both sides finish warming up and return to the sidelines, the game is about to begin...
