On June 4, the first game of the Finals between the Lakers and Celtics officially started at Staples Arena.
Kobe's efficiency was good, scoring 30 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 steal.
It's hard for the Lakers to lose in a game where Nai Nai plays efficiently.
Moreover, Kobe also has a perfect second-in-command Pau Gasol.
He played very well in this game, scoring a double-double of 23 points and 14 rebounds, and was an absolute contributor to the team's victory.
In the end, the Lakers defeated the Celtics 102-89 and got a good start in the finals.
After the first game of the Finals, Lakers fans were ecstatic and said that the Lakers would win the final championship.
On June 6, the second game of the NBA Finals continued at Staples Arena.
In this game, Ray Allen showed off his power, making 8 of 11 three-pointers, setting a single-game three-point record in the Finals.
He scored 32 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists in the game, leading the Celtics to win the game and tie the total score at 1-1.
The Celtics were able to win the game, and Rondo also contributed a lot.
He had a triple-double of 19 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists in this game. He had a triple-double in the finals for the first time in his career.
After the second game of the Finals, Celtics fans stood tall and said that the Celtics would defeat the Lakers and win the championship like they did in 2008.
Just as the finals are in full swing, the Warriors owner's sale of the team, which fans are more concerned about, has finally come to an end.
Joe Lacob teamed up with partner Guber, the founder of Mandalay Film and Television, to spend $600 million to acquire the Warriors.
Lacob has been an avid basketball fan since he was very young. Like all children who love basketball, he dreams of one day owning an NBA team of his own.
He finally waited for this day, successfully acquired the Warriors, became the owner of the team, and fulfilled his childhood dream.
But Lacob was not satisfied with this. He wanted to build the Warriors into a team as great as the Celtics.
After he became the owner of the Warriors, he immediately reorganized the Warriors management.
First, the Warriors general manager Larry Riley was promoted to the team's president of basketball affairs and Bob Myers was hired as the team's general manager.
After that, he spent a lot of effort to invite logo man Jerry West to join the Warriors management, serving as a team consultant and becoming a member of the Warriors' executive committee.
As for other aspects, no major adjustments have been made.
After forming the core management team, Nelson, Jerry West, Bob Myers and others began to discuss the next draft and offseason team reinforcement plan.
After the Warriors' ownership change came to an end, fans refocused their attention on the Finals.
On June 8, the third game of the finals started at the North Shore Garden Team.
The result of this game was once again unexpected.
After the Celtics returned to their home court, they failed to pursue the victory and win the game. Instead, the team was in a sluggish state and lost the game.
In this game, Kobe scored 29 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks.
Although Naochi's shooting percentage is a bit low, his contribution on the defensive end is indispensable, which can be regarded as making up for it.
In the end, the Lakers defeated the Celtics 91-84, leading the total score 2-1.
On June 10, the fourth game of the finals still started at the North Shore Garden team.
Although Kobe Bryant scored 33 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals in this game, the Lakers still lost.
The Celtics relied on their strong defense and six members of the team scored in double figures. They won the game with difficulty and tied the total score at 2-2.
The Battle of Tianwang Mountain that followed was extremely tense between the two sides.
Kobe's comprehensive statistics of 38 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists were difficult to help the team win.
In the end, the Celtics defeated the Lakers 92-86, leading the game 3-2 with a total score and winning the match point.
On June 15, the sixth game of the Finals returned to Staples Arena.
In this game, Kobe Bryant once again scored a game-high 26 points, leading the Lakers to an 89-67 victory over the Celtics, leveling the total score at 3-3 and heading into the tiebreaker.
After seeing the Lakers win Game 6 of the Finals, David Stern finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This year's finals helped the NBA gain a lot of ratings and made the league a lot of money.
The ratings will definitely increase significantly from the finals to the tiebreaker.
On June 17, Game 7 of the Finals was played again at Staples Arena.
Kobe performed poorly in this game, shooting 6 of 24 from the field and scoring a game-high 23 points, but he made up for it by grabbing 15 rebounds.
Gasol scored a double-double of 19 points and 18 rebounds, and was the biggest contributor to the victory.
In the end, the Lakers narrowly defeated the Celtics 83-79, eliminated the Celtics with a total score of 4-3, and won the championship.
Kobe got his wish and won the second FMVP trophy in his career.
At this point, the 2009~10 season has officially come to an end!
…
…
On June 24, the 2010 NBA Draft officially kicked off at Madison Square Garden.
Sun Yi took a break from his busy schedule and squeezed out time to watch the draft in his apartment.
On the TV screen, after NBA Commissioner David Stern made the same opening remarks, the draft officially began.
The Washington Wizards, who held the No. 1 pick, did not hesitate and directly selected John Wall.
In the scouting report, Wall's draft template is Marbury and Rose. The lower limit is not low, and they are proper All-Star embryos.
Next, the Nets, who got the second pick, selected Evan Turner.
If Turner were not an older draft pick, he would likely be the No. 1 pick in this year's draft.
This guy has made a name for himself in the NCAA, and his popularity is at its peak. He completed the 2010 Grand Slam of important individual awards for American universities, and has a collection of honors.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
Although Turner failed to play well in the NBA, he is not considered second place in the league. The Nets can only accept this cruel reality with tears.
Immediately afterwards, the Digital People selected DeMarcus Cousins with the third pick.
Cousins' performance in this year's March Madness was remarkable and helped Davidson College defend its NCAA championship.
Although this guy is simple-minded, he is extremely talented and has great potential. It is a matter of course that he can be selected with the second overall pick.
After drafting Cousins, the Numbersmen will absolutely take off next season.
They have Holiday and Yingodala on the outside, and Captain Brand and Cousins on the inside.
Such a starting lineup is indeed luxurious enough, and there are also strong players such as Lou Williams, Thaddeus Young, Huoyins, and Speights on the bench.
After seeing the selection of the Digital Team, Sun Yi silently mourned for Lao Zhan.
It is conceivable that if James wants to break out of the Eastern Conference next season, he will definitely lose a layer of skin.
"The NBA is becoming more and more interesting, and facing the unknown is challenging."
Sun Yi didn't think much and continued to watch the draft.
Afterwards, the Timberwolves selected Wesley Johnson with the fourth overall pick.
With the fifth pick, the Kings selected Derrick Favors.
Now comes the key point!
The Los Angeles Clippers, holding the sixth overall pick, selected small forward Kawhi Leonard from Davidson College.
In this year's March Madness, Leonard led Davidson College to defend the NCAA championship, and his college career was considered complete.
Moreover, his draft prediction ranking on the authoritative website entered the lottery area, so he did not stay in school for another year and signed up for the draft in advance.
According to the scouting report, Leonard's draft template is Sun Yi, but except for his similar figure to Sun Yi, he cannot be compared with Sun Yi in other aspects. He is just like a weakened version of Sun Yi.
Therefore, Leonard's prospects are not favored by scouts, and he is expected to be selected at the end of the lottery.
The Clippers' ability to select Leonard with the sixth pick is considered a gamble.
Last year they missed Sun Yi with the No. 1 pick and regretted it very much. This year they will not miss the "weakened version of Sun Yi" again.
In front of the TV, Sun Yi felt bad after seeing the Clippers drafting Leonard.
If the Clippers trade for Chris Paul next year to form a combination of Paul + Griffin + Leonard, then the Clippers will really become an aircraft carrier.
"It's really difficult to break out of the devilish division in the Western Conference!"
It's hard for Sun Yi to imagine what the Western Conference will be like in the next few seasons.
"Hey! This is not something I should consider. Let the management have a headache!" Sun Yi did not worry about it and continued to watch the draft.
With the seventh overall pick, the Detroit Pistons selected Greg Monroe.
With the eighth pick, the Utah Jazz selected Gordon Hayward.
With the ninth pick, the Indiana Pacers selected Paul George.
After Sun Yi saw George being selected away, he secretly thought it was a pity.
During this period, the reorganized Warriors management held many meetings and discussions, and finally decided to focus on Sun Yi as the core of the team and carry out recruitment and selection work based on the characteristics of his playing style.
Therefore, before the draft, Warriors management Jerry West and Nelson specifically asked Sun Yi for his draft advice.
Sun Yi's suggestion at the time was to trade up, strive for a higher pick, and use this draft pick to select Paul George.
But the trading plan was not completely successful, and the general managers of other teams were not all fools.
The Warriors traded up their 22nd pick in the first round and paid a certain amount of chips in exchange for the Timberwolves' 16th pick.
"Since Plan A is bankrupt, we can only start Plan B. I hope there will be no accidents."
Sun Yi calmed down and continued watching the draft.
On the TV screen, Stern was announcing the 13th pick in the first round.
This is a very metaphysical pick, and many well-known shooting guards have been born in this pick.
There is a saying circulating in the league: If you don't know what kind of player to pick with the 13th pick in the first round, it's better to pick a shooting guard.
The Toronto Rams didn't believe this evil and selected power forward Ed Davis.
The subsequent ranking was almost the same as what Sun Yi remembered.
Since this is a small year for the draft, there are no good prospects, and most teams have selected their favorite players.
With the 16th pick, the Timberwolves helped the Warriors select Eric Bledsoe.
When Bledsoe learned that he had been selected by the Timberwolves, his face suddenly fell. He didn't want to go to Minnesota in the ice and snow.
Moreover, the Timberwolves have too many defenders and he has no chance to play.
But not long after, Bledsoe was as happy as a child after learning from his agent that he had been traded to the Warriors.
With the help and care of his two seniors, Sun Yi and Curry, he thinks his future is bright.
Sun Yi felt relieved after seeing that Plan B was successful.
Bledsoe's physical fitness is very strong and his defensive ability is excellent. He will be selected to the best defensive team in the future. He is more than enough to be Curry's substitute.
"The problem of the weak point guard line has been alleviated." Sun Yi feels that the execution ability of his team's management is very strong.
Sun Yi did not continue to pay attention to the remaining picks in the first round, waiting for the arrival of the second round.
Before long, the second-round draft began.
The previous picks were the same as in Sun Yi's memory, there was no difference.
When he was selected as the eighth pick in the second round, Sun Yi perked up and focused on the TV screen.
"With the eighth pick in the second round, the Golden State Warriors selected Landry Fields!" NBA Vice President Tatum Kang announced passionately.
In front of the TV, Sun Yi was a little confused after seeing the Warriors drafting people. He didn't understand what was going on, and it was somewhat different from the plan.
Just when he was calling the Warriors management, he saw the transaction information displayed on the TV screen, and his scalp suddenly went numb.
"How could it be him?!" Sun Yi was a little shocked.
Originally, the Warriors wanted to use the eighth pick in the second round to select Stephenson, but not long after the second round of the draft started, Nets general manager Billy King suddenly called to seek a trade.
After hearing Nets general manager Billy King's trade plan, Jerry West readily agreed.
The Nets sent A Lian and received the eighth pick in the second round + some cash from the Warriors.
Sun Yi stared at the ongoing draft with dull eyes, thinking about the problem in his mind.
The fans in China must be overjoyed that the UAE was traded to the Warriors, and the media reporters will have news to report. This is bound to cause a huge sensation in the domestic basketball area.
Sun Yi is concerned about whether the Arab League can integrate into the Warriors' system.
If Arab League is integrated into the Warriors' system, it will be very helpful to him and he will be able to gain a firm foothold in the NBA and not return to the CBA to dominate.
In the subsequent draft, the Lakers selected power forward Derek Karakot with the 58th overall pick.
At this point, the 10-year draft has come to an end.
This year's draft was more exciting than Sun Yi had imagined.
The Digital Team and the Clippers have found a treasure, and there is a trend of soaring into the sky.
The Warriors also completed the draft task, and there were some small surprises. The overall strength of the team has been improved.
There are no changes for other teams, and they can only look forward to making a difference in the next free market.
After the draft, the general managers of each team have devoted their energy to the upcoming free market.
This year's free market is much more lively. With many big-name stars expiring or opting out of their contracts to test the waters, there will definitely be some deals that shock the league.
