Chapter 460 Second Speech
The seven-game battle between the Lakers and the Kings has finally come to an end. Their tenacity and the final seventh game have brought great enjoyment to all fans!
Although the Lakers lost the chance to advance in the end, their superstars O'Neal and Kobe are still welcomed by a large number of fans!

"Phew. It's finally over!" Bruce sighed secretly. Thinking of the result of the game between the Lakers and the Kings last night, he couldn't help but secretly feel sorry for the Lakers, the king of the dynasty!

If we follow the course of history, starting from this season, although the Lakers can reach the finals with the "Four Kings" next season, this will be short-lived after all.

Now, with the strong rise of the Warriors, Bruce doesn't think they will break into the finals next season, just like history!
"Bruce, what are you thinking?" Wilkens asked curiously.

"Hehe, I'm just a little emotional!" Bruce said casually, and then changed the subject: "Is the strategy for the Spurs almost ready?"

"Well, yes, there are still some joints that need to be filled!" Wilkens said with a smile, and handed Bruce the information on the next second round in his hand, and said confidently: "Even if the Spurs have the league's top Our backcourt, but our balance and the performance of star players are no less than the combination of Vince and Gilbert!"

"Huh? Tim??" Seeing the decision to put Duncan in the power forward position in the document, Bruce couldn't help but looked up in doubt.

"That's right, don't forget that Tim has been serving as the team's power forward for the first five and a half seasons, so placing him in this position now is exactly what he wants!" Wilkens said slowly Explaining for Bruce, after seeing him nodding, he continued with a smile: "Our frontcourt has a very obvious advantage. After releasing Ben, we will have an exciting super combination on the defensive end!"

"Wow, think about it, Ben's defense and rebounding, Tim's offense and defense, oh God, why does this combination look so wonderful?" Bruce looked excited after hearing Wilkens' explanation Chang thought of the power of the two Wallaces!

"Haha, why not??" Wilkens said with a flash of confidence in his eyes, laughing loudly.

On May 5, when all the Spurs rushed to Oakland, the second round between them and the Warriors really attracted a lot of attention from the media and fans!

After a season of testing, the Warriors' lineup and abilities have been demonstrated most powerfully, especially their proud bench lineup. The beginning of the season has simply become a nightmare in the league!
As for the Spurs, it was because of a transaction with the Warriors that has been vaguely talked about so far. With the gradual outbreak of Carter and Arenas, they and the Warriors have also become a large number of media and fans. Talk about it with gusto, after dinner!

The exchange between Duncan and Carter at the time caused an uproar in the league. No one is optimistic about the future of the Warriors after paying a lot of chips!

However, with the perfect integration of Duncan and the Warriors, under the guidance of Bruce's media, the media with such sloppy attributes finally changed their attitudes, and no one questioned Bruce's decision again!

Does Popovich regret it? ?You can see one or two from the fact that he is standing on the Warriors' court with an unhappy expression!
"RC, I admit, this is the stupidest thing I've ever done in my life!" Popovich said to Buford next to him with an ugly face, especially when he saw the Warriors putting up Duncan's oversized posters. Depression is like a tarsal maggot, causing him unspeakable discomfort and pain!
"Greg, now that it's like this, we have to make a good plan for next season!" Buford said to Popovich calmly, and then changed the subject: "Don't forget, we also Not for nothing!"

"Huh? You mean the draft pick from the Clippers?" Popovich gradually regained his composure. Thinking of that pick, his expression subconsciously eased a little!
"That's right, this year's draft will be the most exciting one since 96. If we can get LeBron, the Spurs will improve instantly!" He couldn't help being excited for the little guy with the number jersey!
If the Spurs can finally get him, at least at the front line, they will have a leader for more than ten years!

However, will everything be as simple as they thought?

[-]:[-] p.m. local time in Auckland.

As the fans entered Rockefeller Center one after another, everyone was excitedly waiting for the upcoming battle!

Bruce was sitting in the locker room, watching Duncan and the others chat confidently, thinking of the upcoming match against the Spurs, he couldn't help standing up excitedly!
"Hey, guys, we're going to have a big fight with the Spurs soon!" Bruce greeted, and then shouted excitedly: "For us, this season is the closest we get to a championship."

"If we can overcome the obstacles of the Spurs, even if the Kings and Mavericks are not underdogs, our defense and balanced style of play have a very high chance of making it to the finals!"

"So guys, why don't we go to the finals with our heads held high??"

Bruce's pre-match mobilization really aroused everyone's excitement and fighting spirit. Even Ben Wallace, who put money first, could see his mood at a glance as his muscles bulged. Nothing!
No one is not excited about honor while getting a lot of money, and this is the case with the current Warriors players!
"Oh, let's fight for honor!!" Barkley suddenly jumped on the chair, waving his arms with excitement!

Driven by Barkley, the Warriors' locker room suddenly became full of fighting spirit!
Seeing how excited and fighting they were, Bruce secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and excitedly quarreled with them!
In the evening, as the game was about to start, a series of entertainment programs being staged on the court gradually came to an end in the sound of flutes in the arena!
"Gentlemen and ladies, welcome to Rockefeller Center. I am the commentator for this session, Rick Barry!"

As the game entered the countdown, Rick Barry made a welcome speech to the fans with a smile all over his face!
"That's right, welcome to you exciting guys. I'm the guest commentator, Kenny Smith!" Smith touched his bald head, put the earphones on his head backwards, and said loudly in a funny way.

The combination of the two has gradually become an anticipated landscape in the Warriors arena. It is because of their witty commentary that the fans are given the most anticipated part besides the game!
"drop!!"

The flute in the arena sounded again, and everyone knew exactly what the flute represented!
In the player channel, Bruce followed Starks and others excitedly. As the owner of the Warriors, he is obliged to express his gratitude to all the fans in the second round of the game at his home court!

In the player tunnel on both sides, as the players from both sides came out one by one, the fans in the stands cheered and roared excitedly for their warriors!

When the players and staff of both sides walked to their respective rest areas, Bruce walked directly onto the court with a smile!
The photographers around the court, when Bruce kept walking towards the court, they pointed all the shots at him!

"boss!"

As Bruce stood still, a staff member quickly handed over a microphone!

"Ahem!!" Picking up the mic, Bruce coughed twice as if he was auditioning the sound.

After hearing the surrounding volume gradually weaken, Bruce greeted the surroundings with a smile for a while, and then started his speech amidst the cheers of the fans!

"First of all, I am very grateful to you, the loveliest people. Without your support, the Warriors would not be able to get to where they are now!"

"This season, despite the ups and downs and disappointing games for the Warriors, we finally stood up!!"

"Wow!!"

There was a burst of cheers, and Bruce was presented one after another, and the fans roared excitedly!

Seeing the excitement of the fans, the smile on Bruce's face grew stronger.

"You know, I'm just a kid who doesn't understand anything!"

"Ha ha!!"

A loud burst of laughter suddenly sounded, and everyone was amused by Bruce's joke!
"Of course, it's me, a little kid, who has done a job that other teams envy in these short five years!"

Bruce said with a smile, and after getting a laughing response from the fans, his expression changed, and he said with a little emotion: "This season is the last year we won that trophy, whether it is the respectable Jazz, It's still the Lakers who have been eliminated, we have experienced the initial difficulties and growing pains, and we have been kicked by them!"

This time, Bruce's words did not arouse the fans' laughter. The supporters in the stands, driven by Bruce, seemed to recall the scene when Bruce first entered the Warriors!
The big screen in mid-air, as if responding to Bruce, directly played all the contributions he has made since entering the Warriors!
"Crash!!"

The warm applause suddenly sounded. During the non-stop playback on the big screen, the fans saw the original Carter and also saw the recently traded Duncan. They all used their warmest applause and cheers for the young man. Cheers!

The protracted applause made the Spurs feel a little pressure one after another. It was hard for them to imagine how popular Bruce was at their home court.

"Uh... Vince, if we don't get traded..." Prisbilla whispered to Carter with great regret, but in the end he couldn't say anything at all!
