The Rest, Only Noise
Chapter 1041: game of the century
Latest URL: "Okay, let's go out and celebrate."
The players changed into the first championship shirts in league history and stormed out of the locker room neatly wearing black hats marked with the championship trophy.
This moment is special, it belongs not only to the player, but to the player's family.
Louis let out a long breath.
"Old Lu, you have completed an unprecedented job." Zhao Yuanzheng may be the only one who knows how Louis did these things.
Louie just shook his head with a wry smile, and then went to the locker room to meet the president, Jack Kruger, still too excited.
"World champions! World champions!" Krueger shouted. "We are world champions!"
Louie doesn't know if this game will change the Knicks' fortunes.
He didn't ask, either, because Kruger was getting excited.
They returned to the garden with the rest of the team.
In the award ceremony after the game, in addition to the moment when Kruger was overjoyed, the most attention was paid to the selection of fmvp.
Before Game 7, the judges may still be swinging between Wilson and Ewing.
But after Wilson scored 66 points in a single game, there was no suspense.
In the seven games of the finals, Wilson won his fourth fmvp trophy with an average of 37.4 points, 7 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 2 steals and 1.4 blocks per game.
For this result, Wilson felt ashamed.
He thinks that his selfish performance in the first six games cannot afford the honor of fmvp, but the judges will not care about this.
"If you don't put the trophy away, I'll take it home and give it to someone who wants to spend the night with me!" Rodman laughed.
Wilson grinned and stole a glance at Ewing.
But Ewing said without any personal emotion: "Hold it up, you deserve it!"
Wilson grabbed the trophy as carefully and jerkily as he had lifted the fmvp trophy for the first time.
He didn't want to appear too complacent or satisfied, he always felt that this trophy did not belong to him.
Miller then booed and the others pressed his body to boo and cheer.
The collective emotion instantly overwhelmed the individual shyness, and Wilson was no longer burdened.
"Is this the perfect team, Louie?" Tomjanovich asked.
"Do not."
Louis shook his head and smiled.
"This is my dream team."
Tomjanovich still has questions, but it's not the right time to bring them up.
During the game, Louie asked him what he could do to keep the team.
What does that mean?
Will this team disappear?
how can that be possible? They are so united now, how can they disappear? Or, in Louis's eyes, the beauty in front of him, the perfection at the moment, the scene where this dream shines into reality, is unsustainable?
Rudy didn't ask.
He felt that he had to find the answer on his own.
One day, he's going to be the head coach too, he's got to think like Louie.
why? He doesn't know yet, it's a mystery.
In the end, Louis also wore a black championship cap and won the O'Brien Cup in the crowd.
In this way, the nba1992-93 season ended with the Knicks' six-peat championship.
For the league, a match like this on the eve of negotiations on the next broadcast contract is a godsend.
It's hard to overstate the impact of the Knicks-Blazers Finals, especially Game 6 and Game 7, on North American sports and pop culture.
In terms of numbers, Game 6 had 52 million viewers, while Game 7 hit an even more terrifying height.
In the first half of the Game 7, 55 million Americans watched the live broadcast. In the third quarter, when the Blazers played their most ferocious offensive and established a 22-point lead, the number of people watching the live broadcast reached 58 million.
In the fourth quarter, the Knicks counterattacked until the final Wilson's lore, and the ratings of the tiebreaker were fixed at 61 million.
This not only far surpassed the legendary 1991 World Series Game 7 of MLB, but also surpassed the epic 1986 World Series Game 7, becoming the highest-rated game in a North American sports league other than the NFL Super Bowl.
This is attention.
And through this round of the series, the league and the team's direct and indirect advertising, endorsements, peripheral products, tickets and other income totaled 40 million US dollars.
This is profit.
Wilson, Jordan, Ewing, Barkley, Thomas, Rodman, Sabonis... The two teams will have at least 10 Hall of Famers in the future.
This is the board and star content.
Best player, best team, perfect storyline.
The sum of all this has allowed basketball critics to dare to risk the world to call the seventh game between the Knicks and the Blazers the first "game of thetury" in professional basketball history.
The game of the century is the term used by critics of American football.
It was born in the 1930s. The two sides were the two best teams in college football that year - Ohio University and Notre Dame University. Ohio established a 13-0 advantage in the first three quarters, but was reversed by Notre Dame in the fourth quarter.
There were 80,000 people who were there to witness the game, who paid $50 for tickets in the 1930s just to not want to regret it for the rest of their lives. In the end, the process and dramatic results of this game did not disappoint them. This is recognized as the first century game in history.
After that, almost every ten years, college football would see a thrilling game of the century.
And, as strong as nfl, only the 1958 championship game is called the game of the century. That year's NFL championship game was the beginning of professional sports telecasting, a record-breaking 45 million viewers, and paved the way for future Super Bowls to become America's national programming.
Now, back in 1993, when basketball critics dubbed the Knicks' Game 7 against the Blazers the Game of the Century, there were plenty of football fans and pundits alike.
But for basketball fans, that's the best description of Game 7.
In terms of height, the Knicks may not be as good as the Celtics who won eight consecutive championships in 1966. In terms of the twists and turns of the game, they are also slightly inferior to the seventh game of the Eastern Conference finals in 1988. Choosing one game in professional basketball history as the game's "game of the century" could only be the seventh game between the Knicks and the Blazers.
Historic status, games of the century...these arguments are a selling point for critics and a talking point for fans.
After the game, Wilson was asked how he felt about the strength and weakness argument between himself and Jordan so far.
Wilson replied with a smile: "I don't know who is stronger, but every time I play, I win."
Ewing made a joke that is said to be a classic, "I officially invited Charles Barkley to our championship celebration on behalf of the team. If he didn't 'invite' Coach Lu to drink that bottle of Coke, maybe the Blazers would have won the championship. In the final, if he doesn't come to the celebration, I don't think we might dare to come on stage to give a speech."
"Oops, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has let the haters down again." Miller once again pointed to the big director, "I don't want to hear any questions about Spike Lee tonight, we all know he is idiot."
As a party, what Louis needs most now is rest, and all the face-to-face matters are left to the players.
He has exhausted himself this season.
To this end, Louis called Auerbach to ask him how to keep going after losing motivation and energy, and, is now a good time to rest?
As a result, Auerbach didn't seem to believe what he heard, and asked in surprise: "Rest? Are you **** kidding me? How dare you say this word to me? Want me to give you advice? What advice do you want? What advice do you think I can give you? You're only 33 **** years old, how can you sleep after winning your seventh championship?"
Louis immediately realized that he had found the wrong person for advice.
ps: A new chapter has begun, Oye.
