Basketball Fanatic: Genius Is on the Left

Chapter 1241: Such a wonderful start

The 2013-14 regular season came a little later than usual.

But don’t be afraid of being late for a good meal. This situation further stimulated the enthusiasm of the fans.

In just 30 minutes, all the home tickets for the three teams facing each other were sold out.

The fastest one was of course the matchup between the Knicks and the Heat. The excited Knicks fans didn't even let the clock go by even one point.

Such a grand occasion also made David Stern, who continued to serve as the league president for two seasons, very pleased and secretly thought that he had not chosen the wrong successor.

In fact, league executives have mixed opinions about supporting Zuo Li and helping the Knicks win four consecutive championships. Many executives believe that no matter how popular Zuo Li is, how many Knicks fans there are, and how prosperous the New York sports market is, he can win three consecutive championships. It's enough. Four consecutive championships is really more than enough.

After all, if only one team in a league can ever win the championship, it will affect the development of other teams and make fans gradually feel fatigued, which will eventually lead to the development of the league stagnating or even regressing.

However, David Stern defied all opinions and not only insisted on not doing anything, but also blocked many small moves for the Knicks. This made the Knicks' four consecutive championships so smooth.

Facts have proved that David Stern's vision is indeed unique. The Knicks' strength not only did not affect the league, but instead fed back to other teams, further increasing the league's attention.

This may seem counterintuitive, but this is exactly what David Stern is so awesome about.

He always sees where others can't.

You can only see the second floor, and he is already on the fifth floor.

He dared to do this precisely because he saw Zuo Li's potential, which was not comparable to that of All-Stars and super giants. If we talk about successors, then Zuo Li should be the only successor to Jordan.

Looking at Jordan's original achievements, do you think it was just on the court?

NONONO!

Jordan's influence in all areas off the court is No. 1 in basketball history.

Oh, except maybe running isn’t very good.

He made Nike and Chicago a success. Even many years after his retirement, many fans in North America still believed that he was the first person in sports history. Such an achievement could not be found in the league for decades.

But Zuo Li can approach or even surpass Jordan in some fields, so Stern feels that such a person is simply a gift from God, and it would be a shame to not praise his hairstyle.

Facts prove David Stern's vision. Looking at the current situation of the NBA and the unparalleled influence overseas, otherwise he would be reluctant to leave this position.

There will still be no shady events this season, and David Stern also wants to see how far Zuo Li can go!

The night of October 29th, Madison Square Garden.

The championship ceremony for four consecutive years started as scheduled. Zuo Li, Curry and others wore their fourth championship rings one after another. Nash and Lu Wei finally joined the Champions League.

Six flags flew over Madison Square Garden, and the Knicks tied the Bulls to become the team with the third most championships.

The audience next door was still the unlucky Heat~www.readwn.com~ The Big Three saw the championship flag raised for the third consecutive time.

However, everyone’s reaction is general. Maybe people are numb, or they are used to losing.

There were no Miami fans even talking to each other before the game. Maybe it was because the slaps in the face over the past few seasons hurt too much.

The result of the game was still no surprise. The Heat, who had been suppressed by the Knicks for several seasons, still failed to break through their own inner demons.

The Knicks sent out a starting combination of Zuo Li, David Lee, Iguodala, Klay Thompson and Curry.

This was Iguodala's first official game with the Knicks. He seemed very excited. Maybe it was the championship ring that had just been awarded to him. He followed James crazily for 35 minutes and not only limited James' score to 26 points. With 8 rebounds and 3 assists, he also contributed 10 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks and 3 steals.

Even though the scoring data was less than half of his peak of 20+, the efficiency was much higher. The 50% field goal percentage made the commentator exclaim that the Knicks had made a lot of money again.

And Iguodala himself doesn't care about his own data: "I performed very well. I know my role. Zuo Li has already talked with me. I don't care how many points I can score here. I will A great performance for the team.”
