TWO NEW HISTORY TODAY

—————————————————————————————————————————————

The Western Conference Finals, which were held concurrently, ended even more quickly than the Eastern Conference Finals. The Spurs vs. Thunder was a matchup with a significant disparity in strength. The combination of Westbrook + Griffin + Ray Allen simply couldn't compete with the Spurs.

In four games, the Spurs swept the Thunder with a clean 4-0 score, taking the lead to reach the finals.

There was nothing to say during the match. Westbrook, with his reckless personality, easily fell into the trap set by the Spurs. In four games, he averaged only 17 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists per game, shooting only 30% from the field, with 4 turnovers in every game.

Ray Allen was invisible throughout the process. In fact, his current competitive level was no longer able to support the title of a giant. He would still be very good as a role player shooting three-pointers from fixed spots, just as he did with the Heat during the 12-13 season.

The only one on the Thunder who performed well was the White Monster, Griffin.

In reality, Duncan never had much to do with this kind of flexible, physically gifted big man. When he faced problems with the Suns in the past, he often had to fight against Amare Stoudemire, the Suns' primary big man. Both sides would explode against each other, and it was difficult to completely defend the other side.

Griffin's playing style is very similar to Stoudemire's in the early stages. Duncan, now 36, definitely couldn't keep up with the young and powerful White Monster who could run and jump.

However, Griffin alone couldn't cause much of a stir. His technical characteristics determined that he really couldn't be the key to the game's outcome.

The Spurs, who easily defeated the Thunder and reached the finals, didn't feel much joy in their hearts because they knew the real challenge lay in the finals. They were about to face the strongest team in the league, the Chicago Bulls, who had won four championships in the last five years.

The Spurs actually had a grudge with the Bulls that dated back several years. When Wang Chong first joined the Bulls, he led them, who were not favored by everyone at that time, to the finals.

Their opponent in the finals was the San Antonio Spurs.

At that time, Wang Chong was not as strong, and the Bulls' lineup was mediocre. Therefore, the Spurs defeated the Bulls in the finals and won the final championship.

Since then, the Spurs had missed the Finals for five consecutive years, and now they had finally returned. Unexpectedly, their opponent was still the Bulls.

However, times had changed. The Big Three, which was strong back then, was now a standard veteran trio. Duncan was 36 years old, Ginóbili was 35, and Tony Parker, the youngest of the three, was now 30 years old.

The Big Three were aging, and the sun was setting, but the three giants of the Bulls—Wang Chong, Curry, and Gasol—were at their peak. In addition, players like Jimmy Butler, Danny Green, Isaiah Thomas, and many others provided obvious advantages in their lineup. Not to mention, the Spurs currently had no one who could match a superstar of Wang Chong's level.

Before the finals began, the outside world was already very optimistic about the Bulls' eventual victory, and even the various odds offered by betting houses were extremely disparate.

Basically, everyone believed that the final showdown between the Bulls and Spurs was an 82-game open series. The Bulls had an 80% chance of winning the finals. The remaining 20% wasn't for the Spurs, but for the Bulls: unexpected injuries could hurt key players.

This wasn't unfounded. Last year, the Bulls actually suffered injuries. If the Bulls hadn't endured a large number of injuries, including Curry, Garnett, Billups, and other players, the Lakers might not have won the finals. They might have lost to the Bulls.

But on June 2, 2013, after the two teams started the finals, the Bulls' home fans were surprised to find that the game was much more difficult than they had imagined.

For a long time after the game started, the Bulls were tangled in a defensive battle with the Spurs. Both sides took turns increasing their scores, and the scoreboard remained tight.

It wasn't until the third quarter that the Bulls relied on Wang Chong's explosion to score 7 consecutive points, establishing a slight lead and maintaining it until the end of the game.

91:88.

In the first game of the finals, the Bulls won at home with a narrow 3-point advantage. This was far from the easy victory many had imagined.

In their opinion, the opponents of the Bulls in the Eastern Conference Finals, the Miami Heat, were definitely stronger than their opponents in the Finals. The San Antonio Spurs even lost to the Bulls several times by large margins, and yet they still played at home against the Spurs. If the Bulls won, they should have won easily.

But the game's development highlighted a difficulty.

Gasol, who shone in the game against the Heat, was completely suppressed by Duncan in this game. He only scored 14 points and 8 rebounds, while Duncan, at 36 years old, scored 20+14.

Curry's performance was also average. The Spurs were very aware of Curry's threat from beyond the three-point line and took special care to guard him. In this game, Curry only made 2 of 7 three-point attempts. Although the Spurs focused on the tactic of protecting against his shots, they didn't guard against his drives, giving him many opportunities to break through and attack the rim with the ball. He scored only 18 points in total.

The Bulls' ability to win this game completely depended on Wang Chong's performance.

Seeing his teammates being suppressed, Wang Chong decisively took the ball and scored 43 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 assists under Leonard's full defense, ensuring the Bulls' victory in the first game.

Although the Bulls won, the process of the game sounded the alarm for everyone. There was absolutely no weak team that could reach the finals. The Spurs had eliminated the defending champions, the Los Angeles Lakers, in the Western Conference Finals.

Two days later, in Game 2 of the Finals, the Bulls played steadily and won the second game with a 2-0 advantage.

It seemed like the Bulls had taken the lead and had an absolute advantage.

But immediately after returning to the Spurs' home court, the Bulls lost both games, and the score was tied 2-2 by the Spurs.

The game reached its most exciting and thrilling battle in Tianwang Mountain.

The Bulls sat at home and had a fierce battle with the Spurs in Game 5. With Wang Chong's incredible triple-double of 48 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists in a single game, the Bulls defeated the Spurs 107:98 and took the lead in Tianwang Mountain.

With the wait for Game 6 of the finals, the Spurs, returning to their home court, still couldn't withstand the pressure.

Curry, who had been suppressed for five games, finally recovered. In this game, he hit 8 out of 11 three-pointers. He scored 31 points, 4 rebounds, and 8 assists, ruining the Spurs' opportunity to tie the score and force a tiebreaker with the Bulls.

With a large 4:2 score, the Bulls defeated the San Antonio Spurs and successfully won the 2012-13 season championship. This was also the fifth time the Bulls had won the championship trophy in six years, successfully surpassing the Los Angeles Lakers, who had four championships in five years, becoming the most successful team in the NBA in the new century.

Although the process was somewhat unexpected, the results were in line with most people's expectations.

Wang Chong averaged 39 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists over the 6 games of the finals and was unanimously selected as FMVP with no suspense.

With this championship, Wang Chong's total number of championships officially reached six, tying Michael Jordan.

However, when he won his first championship with the Lakers, he could only be considered as the third main force of the Lakers. His tactical status was still lower than that of O'Neal and Kobe. Compared to Jordan, who was the absolute core and won six championships, Wang Chong was still slightly inferior.

Jordan has six FMVP trophies, and Wang Chong's five FMVP trophies are the best proof.

It's just that Jordan was already 35 years old when he won his sixth championship. After winning the championship, Jordan decided to retire and officially announced his retirement, showing his exemption from competition.

Wang Chong is different. After winning his sixth championship trophy, he is only 28 years old. His career is still very long. He will win a seventh, eighth, ninth, or even tenth championship in the future.

Saying this, some people think of when James first joined the Heat. When asked in an interview how many championships the Heat could win, he said very pretentiously, "Not one, not two, not three, not four," in a rhetorical manner.

Now, three years have passed since the formation of the Heat's Big Three, and the Heat still don't have any wins or championships, while Wang Chong has already won six championships. It's just a shrimp and a pig's heart.

However, the league is somewhat indifferent to Wang Chong's victory. Although the reports are overwhelming, both fans and other consumers of news already feel that it should be this way. In fact, the Bulls won 4:1 in the Eastern Conference Finals after defeating the Heat and reached the Finals. Many people had already decided that the championship this year must go to the Bulls.

The question that most fans are concerned with now is when Wang Chong will win his seventh championship, his sixth FMVP trophy, and his fifth MVP trophy, because the acquisition of these honors will directly determine whether Wang Chong can be placed at the same level as Jordan, who is discussed as number one in the history of the league.

Moreover, everyone is also paying close attention to the trends of other teams in the league, such as the Los Angeles Lakers' Big Three and the Miami Heat's Big Three, because it's well known that these teams are not competitors for the Bulls. Unless their lineup is optimized and improved again, they still won't be able to compete with the Bulls for the championship.

But how easy is it to strengthen? Especially for the Lakers, it will be difficult to maintain the current lineup, and even more difficult to make reinforcements in the summer.

Many teams have also set their sights on the Bulls' players.

This season, the Bulls players whose contracts are expiring will be the most affected, especially the second-best player on the team, Stephen Curry. Many teams have planned to offer him the maximum salary immediately after free agency opens, as well as the team's number one salary offer, promising a central position.

Although Curry is a restricted free agent, as long as the Bulls decide to match the offer, they can retain him by force. However, if he strongly desires to leave the team, the team will generally opt to release the player. Ultimately, blunt melons are not sweet; in this business-oriented alliance, few people would really end up harming both sides just to gain momentum.

The executives of these teams believe that the trade assets they offer are quite tempting. After all, who doesn't want to be the boss? In the Lakers, Kobe was ready to make a move even before O'Neal was older.

Although Curry is somewhat discreet, he should be ambitious. Moreover, due to injuries, even though Curry was selected to the best team this season, his evaluation isn't particularly high. In fact, he doesn't deserve the maximum salary offer. The reason why teams are willing to use the maximum salary to secretly pursue Curry is because they want to weaken the Bulls' dominance this way. No team in the current league wants the Bulls to keep winning the championship.

However, these people's illusions are doomed to fail.

How could Wang Chong sit back and watch the Bulls refuse to give Curry the maximum salary and let go of Curry, who would later be known as the strongest three-point shooter in history?

What the Bulls offer Curry must be a maximum salary offer, and there is no other possibility.

And Curry's personality is really different from Kobe's. Not to mention fighting for the team's leadership, even when he truly was the leader of the Warriors, he didn't act like a star at all, which could turn Du, who had just joined, into the team's leader. A Lant didn't care at all if it was ostentatious and showed power, proving his broad mind.

In fact, before free agency opened, Wang Chong had already privately inquired about Curry's intentions as the older brother. Curry had a strong desire to stay with the team and was eager to serve as Wang Chong's right-hand man and become Wang Chong's Pippen.

As long as the team can keep Curry smoothly, Wang Chong doesn't care about other changes in the team lineup, even if Gasol, Butler, Draymond Green, and other players leave. As long as Wang Chong + Curry is there, the Bulls can become the favorites to win the championship with just a well-rounded lineup. ——A

At the end of June, the annual NBA draft was held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, home of the Nets.

As a relatively famous draft year, this year was rare in that Wang Chong was too lazy to even select a player.

The first overall pick, Anthony Bennett, would become the most famous parallel first pick in NBA history, completely surpassing his predecessor Kwame Brown. However, most of the rookies in the 2013 draft class failed to make a name for themselves.

Of course, among a group of rebellious stones, there were still some diamonds in the rough. For example, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who was selected with the 15th pick in the first round, was nicknamed "Antetokounmpo" and went on to win the regular-season MVP for the first time, leading the Bucks to win an NBA championship trophy.

However, Antetokounmpo's growth cycle was long, his position conflicted with Wang Chong's, and he lacked three-point shooting ability.

What most discouraged Wang Chong was Antetokounmpo's ranking as the 15th pick in the first round.

Although this pick wasn't high, for the Bulls, who had the best regular-season record and the best playoff championship, it was out of reach.

The Bulls are now the public enemy of the league. If you want to acquire a high-ranking draft pick through trade, you'll have to steal it, and the gain outweighs the loss.

Taking everything into account, Wang Chong wouldn't consider Antetokounmpo.

Another diamond piece was Rudy Gobert, who was selected with the 27th pick in the first round.

As a defensive guard who would win the Defensive Player of the Year award three times in the future, this selection had an excellent cost-performance ratio.

But the problem is that even with the 27th pick, the Bulls couldn't reach it, and even if they selected Gobert, with Gasol still there, there wouldn't be many opportunities for him to play. Additionally, next year's main pick, Nikola Jokic, would also land in the NBA, making Gobert seem very useless.
