Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty-Fourth Universe Brave, That's All?(1/2)
After the league introduced rotation rules, the farce was finally put to rest.
And judging from the subsequent reactions of various teams, this revised rule has basically been recognized.
However, this has also had some impact on the football market. For example, the ticket prices for games against weaker teams have become lower, while the ticket prices for live games across the United States have further increased.
This also presents a polarized situation in terms of TV broadcast payment and foreign live broadcast ratings.
After all, for fans, both money and time are limited.
Of course, the impact of that is very limited, and fans have refocused their attention on the schedule after such a farce.
Because, the Christmas war is coming soon!
And there is only one Christmas game this year, Nets VS Warriors!
After Tatum became the league president for one season, he finally learned how to speculate in games.
Of course, this season, the lineups of the two teams collided three times a season, and every time they collided, it was a ratings bomb, and it is unlikely that Tatum could not grasp it.
And at this time, looking back at the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two teams and the fans of the two teams during the previous break, it was actually a perfect warm-up.
In a basketball game, the ball still counts. No matter how fierce the fight is off the court, it is not as useful as winning a game on the court.
For example, in the finals of last season, Green and Durant fought hard and even had the upper hand, but in the end the Warriors lost, and he could only be used as a "surrender" KT board and placed on the front of the Nets' championship parade.
, and he has no temper at all.
Therefore, the completion of this game can be called Mars hitting the Earth.
Then, Barkley came to "add fuel" to the game!
"The Warriors are absolutely going to win this game, and if they don't, I'll be wearing Gisele Bundchen's latest endorsement omen in the studio!"
This wave exploded directly.
Barkley made the biggest bet of his commentary career for this game!
And the key is that as the well-known "No. 1 Lin Chui", his reverse operation is a bit crazy.
The fans' interest was instantly piqued. After all, who doesn't want to see Barkley wearing Omen!
So, it's a bit incredible to say that those fans who were just watching the show suddenly became Nets fans before this game!
They support the Nets and want the Nets to win. Their purpose is very simple, just to see what Barkley looks like in Omen!
…
On Christmas Eve, the Durant family and Lin Ying's family gathered in the river bend to celebrate Christmas.
Durant brought his mother Wanda over from Oklahoma, and the two families spent Christmas Eve together quite happily.
"Isn't Charles' sacrifice this time a bit too big?"
Durant and Lin Ying sat by the river and watched the scenery. Durant picked up the binoculars and looked at the sexy girl on the yacht not far away and said.
These women are not afraid of the cold even in winter.
"He may make sacrifices, but he will definitely make gains."
Lin Ying said with a smile.
You might think that Barkley sacrificed a lot, but in fact he earned more eyeballs.
In a sense, if Barkley does not seize this opportunity, fans may soon forget about him.
After all, compared to the Vipers, there was Bill Simmons in the past and A. Smith now, and Barkley is far inferior.
"So we have one more reason to win."
After Durant thought for a moment, he nodded seriously.
Because only by winning can Barkley have the opportunity to perform and earn traffic.
This wave of logic is a perfect closed loop.
"If we...lose tomorrow, we will be tied with the Warriors for the best start to the season, and that would be unpleasant enough."
Durant's reaction was very fast this time.
"There may be only a thin line between perfection and imperfection."
Lin Ying nodded.
Fate is sometimes so strange. The Warriors' 24-game winning streak was ended by the Nets last season. This time the Nets have a chance to break the best start in history with 24 wins, and their opponent in Game 25 happened to be the Warriors.
“It’s very exciting!”
Durant looked away from the girl in the distance, handed the binoculars to Lin Ying, then stood up and turned around.
"My dear, you are here."
Dicker had just come out of the house.
Lin Ying glanced at the telescope in his hand.
This guy has eyes on the back of his head?
…
This year’s Christmas Day game is at the Nets’ home court.
The heated scene at Barclays Center that night was like the finals.
On social media, some people hailed this game as the "NBA Spring Festival Gala", and it lived up to its name.
In the front row of the auditorium, the wife team members Swift and Dicker took their seats early.
Swift is also very fond of Dicker now, because Dicker is a model herself, and she is also planning to let Dicker star in the MV of her new song.
locker room.
The Nets are also getting ready to go soon.
Lu was doing the final mobilization for his teammates at this time.
"The two most important days in life, the first day is the day you were born, and the second day is the day you know why you were born. I think our team was born to win championships."
Lu's chicken soup level is learned from Rivers, but he is better than his master.
After hearing this, the teammates were all eager to give it a try.
Lin Ying also looked at Lu in surprise.
This is what Lu said in history when he reversed 1-3 in the finals. Of course, it can no longer happen now.
But Lu said this now, which shows that he attaches great importance to this game.
"So no matter how strong an opponent we face, we will always be champions and now is the time to prove it!"
Lu continued.
After he finished speaking, the team members were already excited.
At the signal of veteran West, everyone clenched their fists and raised them together, and then shouted slogans.
"We are the champions!"
After Swift created this song for the Nets, the Nets have always used it as the opening music, so it is not only a slogan, but has become a team culture of the Nets.
Therefore, the effect of Lu's speech was greater than he expected.
After shouting slogans, the players trotted out of the locker room and then ran along the players' tunnel into the stadium.
When they appeared, there was a burst of cheers.
New York fans have been waiting for their championship for a long time!
After a while, members of the Warriors also entered the court one after another.
The camera panned over the faces of the Warriors' core players in turn.
Curry's face is calm, James's face is murderous, Thompson's face is flashing with the flames of revenge, and Green...
As soon as the camera was shown, the scene was filled with boos.
Some fans in the front row even made crazy "Green surrender" actions.
Social media may forget, but fans remember.
Green's move will follow him throughout his career!
However, Green's reaction fully reflects his character.
He wasn't angry either, and completely ignored the fans' actions, chatting and laughing with James on the side.
James didn't care, he was thick-skinned, he was a professional.
While the court was still warming up, Barkley and the others were already chatting in the commentary box.
O'Neal and Smith were discussing what color Barkley should wear. After all, Bundchen's latest underwear comes in several colors.
Barkley was full of confidence and was still hurting O'Neal.
"Shaq, even when you are at your peak, you can't beat these Warriors. They are the true invincibles of this era."
"If I were still here, Draymond would regret coming into the league."
