The 2013-2014 NBA playoffs have finally come to the most eye-catching Finals!

The two sides that will face each other in the Finals are the defending champion San Antonio Spurs and the previous year's champion Miami Heat!

If a friend hasn't watched the NBA for a year and tunes in to the Finals again, he will wonder if time hasn't passed, why are the two teams exactly the same as last year?

In this year's finals, the league introduced new rules, and the format of the finals changed from the previous "2-3-2" to "2-2-1-1-1", that is, the original 3 consecutive away games were canceled, which is not good news for teams with poor regular season results.

In the original "2-3-2" format, if the pair with poor results in the regular season can grab one of the first two games, then they can use three consecutive home games to send their opponents home, and in the finals, the home advantage will be more obvious.

But now, the format has changed, and there are no three consecutive home games, which is obviously not a good thing for teams with poor results in the regular season.

The Spurs don't care, anyway, in the regular season, they are the first, and they still have a advantage to take advantage of the change in this format, so they are naturally happy to see it.

The Heat is different, they originally suffered in terms of record, but now that the competition system has changed, they will suffer even more.

"No matter how the format changes, I believe that our team will win in the end, and my teammates and I will do our best to win, although the process may become difficult, but I promise that we will succeed!"

In an interview with reporters, James answered his opinion on the change of the format in very official terms.

"LeBron, do you have confidence in this year's finals? Or is the team ready to compete for the championship? "Local reporters in Miami tend to ask a little more subtle, but now that the finals are just around the corner, we do need to ask more straightforward questions.

"I don't think we're exactly in the state of contention for the championship right now, because the finals haven't started yet, and you can't say you're fully in that state until you start."

James replied this time first and then promoted, this kind of trick to deal with reporters is already practice makes perfect, and he can be completely self-contained.

"But I like it and I'm happy with the way the team is and I'm sure in the finals we'll be better and now we can do better on both ends of the pitch."

Listen, listen, this boast doesn't feel excessive at all, and it makes people feel very modest, really like an emperor.

Well, anyway, Miami's media friends put James into the script of the so-called Emperor's Restoration, and under their leadership, last year's Spurs were more evil and evil, especially the kid from the East, who was even more to blame for the blatant rebellion with the Spurs!

This year, the Miami media are hoping that the team can win, and only then will James be able to stay on the team this year.

Otherwise, the Heat's Big Three will definitely disperse this summer!

Compared with Miami, San Antonio is much calmer about the finals, thinking that there are more finals and more championships, and the Holy City media is a little inexplicably confident in the team.

In their opinion, the team's victory this year is like this: Qin Yan broke out and Spurs won; Leonard broke out and the Spurs won; Whiteside broke out, the Spurs won, and finally the GDP ended the game, and the Spurs won again!

Well, after winning four games, you can directly hand out trophies and start the parade.

Look, what is domineering, this is called domineering, straightforward, not dragging the mud at all, what "Emperor's Revenge", those people in Miami like to play with flowers, and there is no sincerity at all.

Of course, the media on both sides are the first to start the public opinion war, and the style of Miami's side is gorgeous, piling up articles with all kinds of gorgeous words, just like the luxurious Big Three lineup of the Heat.

San Antonio's side is naturally very simple and speechless, just like the team's style of play for many years, if it weren't for the fear of being slapped in the face, the Holy City media would want to be swept directly in the vernacular.

What's the use of writing so much? It's flashy, the strength of the two teams is there, and they should win anyway. That's what the Quds media had to say about their Miami counterparts.

Of course, the media people in Miami have quit, and they have also fought back, in response to the articles of the Holy City media, they also give comments such as uneducated, vulgar, barbaric, etc., with this level of writing, are you embarrassed to be a media person?

In fact, Miami's evaluation is not very accurate. Do you really think that the media in the Holy City are uneducated? Wrong! Miss by a mile!

Originally, the media in the Holy City actually planned to make up a gorgeous script for Spurs, after all, people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and packaging is very important.

But it's very helpless, their own team doesn't cooperate, they have nothing to write about!

When the GDP trio was interviewed by reporters, they were very low-key, they said that they would not think about the championship now, and the most important thing was to play a good game one by one.

As soon as the media saw that they couldn't hear anything useful from the mouths of these three people, they immediately changed their goals and asked the rest of the team, hoping to get some useful information so that they could wrap up the team.

The result? The whole Spurs team seems to have a unified voice, no matter who you interview, the answer is the same, there is no cool or exciting news at all, which makes the media in the Holy City very melancholy.

Oh my God, what can you write about this kind of interview?

In desperation, they gave up the idea of telling stories with their Miami counterparts, and after taking a few photos of the team's training, the Quds media carried forward the spirit of "two pictures at the beginning, and the rest is all up to the editor", and wrote the "unpretentious" interview news above.

If the Spurs knew that because of their deliberate low profile, the Holy City media would be labeled "uncultured", I wonder if they would be ashamed.

Well...... Extrapolating from objective reality, it is obviously not.

In the pre-game media war between the two cities, the day of the opening of the finals finally came.

All the members of Miami got on the charter plane, and at the airport, tens of thousands of fans came to see them off!

"Miami wins!"

"Heat Championship!"

……

"LeBron, we're going to win, right?" Looking at the fans outside through the glass of the plane, Wade suddenly sighed, and he turned his head to ask James beside him.

James also turned his head to look at Wade, and the moment the two looked at each other, they seemed to be ready to see those hidden thoughts in each other's eyes.

"Well, it's going to win." After a moment, James looked away as if evasively, and replied lightly.

Wade also twisted his head to the side, the big war was coming, and at this time, his heart couldn't be disturbed.

It's just that after he turned his head, he was still muttering in a low voice:

"Really? You're going to win......"
