"Congratulations to the Los Angeles Lakers for once again becoming the Western Conference champions, and congratulations to Zhao Chen for advancing to the Finals for three consecutive years. The Lakers performed wonderfully in the playoffs. They defeated the Rockets, Thunder, and Warriors and successfully reached the Western Conference!"
"This series was very confusing. The Warriors once tied the score at 2-2, but in the end the Lakers still had the last laugh."
"This is the closest the Warriors have come to defeating Zhao Chen. They are stronger than the previous two years, but just a little bit close."
"Let's see how the Warriors operate this summer. Their contract with small forward Barnes has expired. Barnes is very popular in the market. Let's see if the Warriors can keep him."
"The strength of the Lakers is mainly Zhao Chen. Of course, the other positions are not too far behind the Warriors. This is also the reason why the Lakers were able to win the series. Booker, Jokic, Harrell and others all showed their performance in the playoffs. own value.”
"Let's look forward to the Lakers' finals and see whether Zhao Chen can successfully achieve his personal dynasty in his third year."
Zhang Weiping shouted excitedly.
For three consecutive years, Zhao Chen has reached the finals as a core player. He successfully won the championship in the first two years. Will he win again this year?
Zhang Weiping is looking forward to it!
Warriors fans at Oracle Center once again witnessed the Western Conference championship award ceremony.
Zhao Chen has a habit of climbing to the top in away games, which is very unfriendly to away fans.
Only a small number of Lakers fans who were trying to get autographs from Lakers players stayed to watch the Western Conference championship award ceremony.
The Lakers' management also appeared at the scene, but it was not Jim Buss and Kupchak, but Jenny Buss and Magic!
Anyone with a discerning eye can notice that the Lakers' management is quietly undergoing changes.
After all, Jim Bass and Kupchak failed to defeat Jenny and Magic, and sadly hid behind the scenes.
In the middle of the season, the battle between the Lakers management was very intense, and it is only now that it has stabilized.
The Lakers' logistics experience will distribute Western Conference championship T-shirts and hats that have been prepared long ago to everyone.
Now it was time to enjoy the short victory, and Zhao Chen relaxed and started celebrating and dancing with his teammates.
Winning the division championship is not the final success, but it is also an affirmation of honor for the Lakers.
Zhao Chen touched the hat on his head.
The third time, this is the third time he has received this hat.
Zhao Chen also firmly believes that there will be more in the future.
Jenny came over and high-fived every player.
When she arrived at Zhao Chen's side, she even gave him a kiss.
Zhao Chen had a good impression of Jenny, better than Jim.
Jenny is professional, while Jim is more of a vassal whose existence depends on him.
Jenny can help Zhao Chen, but what Jim does is just not to cause trouble.
Of course, the most important thing is that Jenny is willing to give part of the Lakers equity to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen will fulfill it after he retires.
Zhao Chen's worth doesn't matter whether he has equity or not. What he wants is respect and the feeling that the team is truly his.
Jim Buss and Kupchak often treat players as tools.
Jenny is very generous, and Zhao Chen is also very helpful.
The league staff quickly gave the trophies to Jenny and Magic.
Then the two gave the trophy to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen stood at position C for a group photo!
After taking pictures, Zhao Chen gave the trophy to Booker and then returned to the locker room.
After all, the Western Conference champion is not the championship, and there is only a very brief ceremony.
Zhao Chen will not be satisfied with just the Western Conference championship, his goal is still the championship!
Before the Lakers eliminated the Warriors, the Cavaliers took the lead in getting tickets to the finals, and they were already on a plane to Los Angeles.
In the East, the Cavaliers were really easy.
James' strength, coupled with Irving and Love, no team can prevent them from entering the finals.
"Zhao, I can't wait to play against you." James forwarded the news of the Lakers entering the Finals on Twitter.
"Hey, are you waiting to be dealt with by Zhao Chen for the third time?"
"If Zhao Chen is here, you will be the runner-up."
"LeBron, you can't lose to Zhao Chen every time, come on, come on."
"Lakers championship."
As soon as James tweeted, many Zhao Chen fans and Zhan Hei swarmed in.
Although James won the championship, he is still looked down upon by many fans.
There is no other way, we only won the championship by working together.
James' return to the Cavaliers was also considered to be a redemption, but Zhao Chen became a big mountain standing in front of him.
James VS Zhao Chen.
This is also a topic hyped by the media.
"Whether James will lose to Zhao Chen for the third time in the finals."
Judging from the time he entered the league, James should be higher in status than Zhao Chen.
But in fact, that's not the case. Zhao Chen came from behind and is no less popular than James in terms of popularity and honor.
No one doubts that when Zhao Chen reaches James' age, Zhao Chen will be even better.
...........
During the preparations for the finals, Zhao Chen and Kobe explained the characteristics of the Cavaliers and James to their teammates as much as possible.
Zhao Chen has the experience of defeating James many times, and his experience is also very useful for the coaching staff in setting up tactics.
In Zhao Chen's telling, as long as the Lakers don't go crazy, defeating them is normal.
Although the Cavaliers in the previous life were a championship team, Zhao Chen believed that they would be better than the Warriors.
The Warriors play as a team, while many of the Cavaliers' superstars play with the ball concentrated in the hands of James and Irving. In many cases, their passing of the ball is not as smooth as the Lakers'.
The Lakers are not afraid of this tactical system.
During the preparations for the Finals, everyone in the Lakers showed their desire for a championship.
Especially Kobe, even though this is his last championship journey, he is still extremely serious and competitive.
If any player relaxes even a little bit, Kobe's scolding will come.
Not only the players are preparing seriously for the game, but also the entire Lakers team.
If the Lakers win the championship, every staff member will receive a considerable bonus.
This is the new policy after Jenny took office. This policy has also made Jenny more supported by the Lakers staff to a certain extent.
Jenny knows what people want.
The success of the Lakers needs to be discounted to everyone with money.
Tension is building.
Zhao Chen did not let this atmosphere disappear, but encouraged this appropriate tension.
Of course, nervousness only exists among players who are playing in the finals for the first time. Veterans who have played in the finals are very calm.
May 28th!
Spring has left and the weather is getting hotter.
Players from only two teams in the NBA are still playing hard, while other teams have entered vacation mode.
The G1 game of the finals will kick off this night at Staples Arena.
At eight o'clock in the morning, after Zhao Chen finished the breakfast carefully prepared by Jiayi, he drove his supercar and set off.
Along the way, promotional signs for the Lakers championship can be seen everywhere.
Since winning the championship last year, the number of Lakers fans has increased significantly. They like to spend money to buy tickets to watch Zhao Chen's games.
Many people couldn't afford tickets to the finals, so they gathered in the square at the entrance and watched the big screen specially prepared for them by the Lakers.
