Such as the Bucks' Alphabet, or the Clippers' Beverley, etc...
This year's finals will be the cleanest game ever!

Paul and Harden will be interesting to watch!
The two former Rockets now have their own masters. Who can win the championship?
Harden's injury may make him return in the second game.
James Harden——
You won’t miss the opportunity to shine in the finals!
"The Nets' offensive firepower is too strong, and Phoenix may not be able to parry it, right? The trend of this series is obvious..."
Wang Meng, Xu Jingyu and Yang Yi sat in the live broadcast room opened by Xunxun Sports and analyzed the finals.
Wang Meng sat upright, facing the camera and talking:
"The Nets have two super scorers in Durant and Irving, and their offensive capabilities are undoubtedly top-notch. Although the Suns are strong overall, it is obviously difficult to compete with the Nets in terms of offense."
Xu Jingyu nodded:
"Yes, and the Nets also have Harden, an MVP-level player. His performance on the offensive end is very good, and the Phoenix Suns need to pay special attention to his threat."
"Man, didn't you see Harden's performance in the semifinals? Is that still called MVP level? He even surpassed Houston."
Yang Yi retorted.
The screen shows the semifinal showdown between the Nets and the 76ers.
Harden is like sleepwalking on the court, losing his sense of presence.
He was panting, put his hands on his knees, and squatted in the bottom corner.
"Are you sure you want to talk about that game?"
Xu Jingyu smiled:
"That was just one of Harden's many down games. His entire career is full of highlight moments, and you can't deny his value just because of one game."
Yang Yi squinted his eyes and raised a sly smile at the corner of his mouth.
He seems to have a unique insight into Harden's condition.
"You see, Harden consumed too much in the regular season. It is difficult for his physical and mental state to return to the best in a short period of time. The intensity and pressure of the finals are not something he can easily adapt to. of."
There was a hint of provocation in Yang Yi's words, as if he was challenging Xu Jingyu.
The audience in the live broadcast room also began to discuss heatedly:
Some people support Yang Yi's point of view, while others think Xu Jingyu's statement makes more sense.
"Harden is not young anymore, and this year is the dividing line."
Yang Yi said categorically, seeming to be very unfavorable about Harden's condition.
Xu Jingyu smiled after hearing this. He looked at the screen with a firm light shining in his eyes.
"Harden is a player who relies on his brain to play. He has a long career! Just watch, he will definitely prove his worth in the finals."
"Coach Yang, even if Harden is in a slump, the Nets still have two superstars, Durant and Irving, as well as Chinese rising star Bai Qiang."
Wang Meng interrupted and said that he is a die-hard fan of the Nets.
After hearing this, Yang Yi raised a disdainful smile on his lips.
"Durant and Irving are indeed super scorers, but Bai Qiang's performance in the NBA is not stable enough. He has not proven that he can compare with these top players."
Xu Jingyu shook her head and retorted firmly:
"You underestimate Bai Qiang's potential. He has shown outstanding strength and talent in the playoffs, especially in the series with the 76ers. Bai Qiang is a player with great fighting spirit and potential. , he definitely has the ability to shine in the finals."
Yang Yi shrugged disapprovingly:
"Okay, let's wait and see. Let's see if Bai Qiang can prove himself in the finals."
