legendary point guard

Thanks to Da Pai and Cai Ying for the generous reward!

Although reaching the finals has become a reality, most fans of the Orlando Magic still can't believe it, because for them all this was just an existence and fantasy, but happiness came so suddenly.

The city of Orlando went crazy because of this, and the mayor of Orlando even designated June 1st, when the Orlando Magic defeated the Cavaliers and entered the Finals, as Magic Day.

Because the Magic's advancement was something that no one expected, and now that the Magic has advanced, it's like creating a miracle. He hopes that this day can be remembered by the people of Orlando forever, and he also hopes that the people of Orlando will always know that creating miracles will never give up.

The Magic's promotion has brought too many benefits to Orlando. As the core of the team, Lin Sen's value has skyrocketed again because he led the team to the finals despite being not favored.

After all, a rookie as the team leader led the team to the finals without being favored. It is a pitiful thing in the entire history of the NBA. In this era of information explosion, it is naturally highly publicized.

Coupled with David Falk's deliberate creation and the NBA League's god-making plan, Lin Sen has become a superstar and even rivals countless legendary superstars in history.

Especially David Stern, he originally hoped that LeBron James and Lin Sen would be inseparable in each of the seven games, but the result did not go as he expected. The shortcomings of the Cavaliers' lineup directly made the Magic almost

After gaining an overwhelming advantage, David Stern simply changed the publicity plan.

Promoting LeBron James as a tragic hero who never gives up and standing still to lose even if he loses, and shaping Lin Sen into a new legend, both of them are undoubtedly the best in David Stern's new god-making movement.

In particular, Lin Sen's skin color and off-court appearance made David Stern very satisfied. On the other side of the ocean, China's attention to Lin Sen is increasing.

Linsen's commercial value has increased exponentially. At this time, Adidas announced that it would establish the Linsen brand within two years. The Linsen sports brand will be a subsidiary of Adidas. It is not ruled out that it will gradually become self-financing and have independent autonomy.

’s subsidiaries.

The release of this news undoubtedly pushed Lin Sen to Michael Jordan again. Everyone knows how popular the Jordan brand owned by Nike is, and it was Michael Jordan who brought all this, a rookie who just led the team to the finals.

Being able to obtain this qualification seems to most people to be fantastic.

Many experts even publicly criticized Adidas executives for being crazy about money and money. His Royal Highness, who was compared to him, said in an interview with reporters: "Of course I can't interfere with their decisions, but I know that this journey will be a success."

How difficult it is, it doesn’t take one skin color or one final to make everything happen naturally.

I hope they will succeed, because competition is needed in any field, and without competition there will be no progress."

Just when many people were envious and criticized, Adidas released a report on the direct income Lin Sen brought to Adidas.

It has only been three and a half months since Lin Sen's Legend Generation was officially released at 2 pm on February 15. Pre-orders and sales exceeded 10 million within 33 hours of its release, and the Legend Generation is still sold around the world.

The most popular basketball shoe.

According to the report released by Adidas, global sales of Lin Sen's Legend Generation reached a terrifying 35 million in the past three and a half months, of which the women's customized version reached 15 million.

The sales volume of the Legend Generation All-Star Edition has also reached 7 million. The Legend 1.5 Generation, launched in the playoffs, has also sold 10 million units in less than a month and a half. With Lin Sen leading the Magic into the championship,

The final playoff version has a surge of 2 million in these two days.

The sneakers endorsed by Linsen alone brought 52 million to Adidas in just three and a half months. With Lin Sen leading the Magic to the finals, the person in charge of Adidas is confident that sales will reach 65 million before the new season.

Such a sales volume is only 7 million lower than the best-selling Jordan 21 in 2005-2006.

Although the good economic situation this year has directly led to an increase in people's consumption, Adidas is full of confidence that the total sales of Linsen's signature shoes can rank among the top three in sales throughout the year.

Coupled with the launch of the legendary second generation next season, Adidas believes that Lin Senguang's sneakers can bring Adidas sales of almost 100 million US dollars in 2007. Such a figure undoubtedly makes Adidas executives extremely excited.

Of course, one of the reasons is that Adidas has launched women's models, and Nike and Jordan have also followed Lin Sen's lead and launched corresponding women's models, but the actual sales are too low to compare with Lin Sen's.

In addition to sneakers, Lin Sen's customized sports suits and long and short T-sleeves have brought considerable sales to Adidas, even far exceeding expectations. The sales of Lin Sen's signature version of arm guards have reached a terrifying 400 worldwide.

Ten thousand U.S. dollars.

In addition to these intuitive sales data, the brand value Lin Sen brought to Adidas is immeasurable. The release of this report directly stimulated the crazy rise of his Adidas stock.

At the same time, Adidas also reached an agreement with David Falk to pay US$60 million for the soon-to-be-established Linsen Sports Company to acquire the 2kgames subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive.

This 60 million will be used as sponsorship fees for the Adidas brand in all games launched by 2kgmes in the next three years. Although 2kgmes’ games include rugby, ice hockey, baseball, basketball and boxing, sales have not been good. Adidas has spent so much money.

It was also an additional condition for Lin Sen to agree to renew his contract with Adidas.

Although the price was high, Adidas still gritted its teeth and agreed in order to keep Lin Sen as a cash cow. Later, Adidas proved that the investment was worth it.

In addition to the 60 million paid by Adidas, Lin Sen will personally contribute 30 million. In addition, Carolina, Natalie Portman, and Adriana Lima will also contribute 10 million US dollars each.

Borrowing is not investment. Lin Sen naturally knows their thoughts.

David Falk also spent 5 million. Ruth Edison also spent 2 million and invested 3 million in technology.

Several people combined to collect US$140 million. David Falk also led a negotiation team of up to 8 people to negotiate with take-two.

After David Falk found out in advance the confidential information that the sales of several latest 2K games launched by 2K did not reach the expected net income of less than 1 million US dollars, David Falk took the initiative in negotiations, and finally in June

On March 3, the day the San Antonio Spurs defeated the Utah Jazz in Game 6 to advance to the Finals, they reached a $135 million acquisition agreement with Take-Two.

This acquisition not only acquired the game copyright but also acquired the original technical personnel, and immediately merged with Ruth Edison's company to form a new 2k company.

When David Falk announced the news, many people were shocked for a while, because everyone knows that the sports game market is dominated by EA, and 2k is a Pacific Ocean behind EA.

Spending 135 million to acquire such a company that has been developing for almost 7 years and has not made much progress naturally made Lin Sen the laughing stock of the United States.

"Man, you know he has a lot of money. So it is possible that he made this decision because he has too much money to spend. I think take-two will be extremely grateful for their generosity." A well-known Wall Street economist

So said.

On the day when the two parties announced that the acquisition was successful, the sale of 2k of Take-Two's stock not only stopped the decline for a consecutive week, but also increased by as much as 3 US dollars. Lin Sen's behavior was jokingly called take by many people.

-The savior of two.

However, the person involved, Lin Sen, didn't care at all. These matters were left to David Falk. He still devoted himself to training. Facing a rival team like the San Antonio Spurs, he didn't have much confidence, even

I have no confidence because this year's Spurs are too strong.

During the regular season, before Linson joined the Magic, he played for the Timberwolves and the Spurs. In this game, numerous topics arose, including not only the off-court collision between Adriana Lima and Eva, but also Linson and Amanda Sey.

Fried had an affair in the locker room during halftime. Linson broke out in the second half after the affair and shook Bruce Bowen's ankle. He also made a buzzer-beating jump shot at the last moment to lead the Timberwolves without Garnett to defeat the Spurs.

.

After joining the Magic, Linsen represented the Magic and played a game with the Spurs in mid-March. As a result, the Magic lost to the Spurs by 22 points at home and was almost beaten without temper.

The first game of the Finals will start on June 7. Although the Spurs only ranked third in the Western Conference during the regular season, they achieved a record of 58 wins and 24 losses. This record is 3 wins more than the Magic, which is second in the Eastern Conference.

games, so the schedule for the finals will be that the Spurs will play 2 home games first, then the Magic will play 3 home games, and finally the Spurs will play 2 home games. Of course, the premise of all this is that both sides can play 7 games.

No one believed that the Magic and the Spurs played seven games. Although the Magic were not optimistic before entering the playoffs and slapped those experts in the face with their performance and entered the finals, their previous opponents obviously could not compare with the powerful Spurs, so in

The best prediction before the finals started was that the Magic lost to the Spurs 2:4.

The odds offered by Las Vegas for the Magic to win are frighteningly high, and all the media are optimistic that the Spurs will win again after 99, 03, and 05. Even the local media in Orlando don’t think the Magic can win.

Create a miracle again.

On June 5, Orlando arrived in the small city of San Antonio two days early. The Magic spent the two days in this small Texas city either in a hotel or in an arena.

"They are a young team with unlimited potential, especially Wood Lin. He is the kind of player that most coaches dream of. I have followed him and his growth from the moment he entered the league.

The speed is beyond my imagination.

He has beaten us before, and I know how powerful he is. He is one of the strongest players in the league at this position, and he is only a rookie. God only knows where his limit is. We want to defend our home court and win.

He must be contained to win." Spurs head coach Greg Veach told reporters after the team's last training session.

Everyone knows how terrifying **Vicci's mouth is. Players in the opponent's team who he praised before the game often perform poorly in the game. **Vicchi's praise also made many fans joke that they can finally watch it.

To Wood Lin's poor performance in the game.

As a defensive expert who once had his ankle knocked by Lin Sen, Bruce Bowen also vowed before the game that he would use his performance to tell everyone that he was still him.

Magic head coach Stan Van Gundy said seriously when being interviewed by reporters: "We are just learners. We don't think too much about the O'Brien Cup. We are just here to learn. Everyone around the world knows it.

How powerful are the Spurs of GDP."

As for the Magic's leading rookie Lin Sen, he did not express any opinions and was waiting for the game to start.

On June 7, the 2006-2007 season finals will start in San Antonio. In the past, the games between the San Antonio Spurs and the Detroit Pistons gave David Stern a huge headache, because the two teams played in the same way.

A standard ratings killer.

This year's finals also gave David Stern a headache. However, he and TNT, which has the rights to broadcast the finals, carried out crazy publicity. The focus of the publicity was undoubtedly around the Magic and Lin Sen.

In the survey before the game about your willingness to watch this year's finals, David Stern was quite satisfied. Of course, this was just an advance survey. David Stern, sitting in the NBA office in New York, was waiting for the start of the finals.

.

The Spurs' home court is already packed. Spurs fans are among the most die-hard fans in the league. Perhaps they are the only ones who understand the charm of Spurs basketball. A small number of Magic fans and Chinese groups also came to the scene, but they were all submerged in the world of Spurs fans.

.

Carolina and Natalie Portman came to the scene with the team, and the most eye-catching person on the sidelines of the Spurs was undoubtedly Tony Parker's woman Eva.

"Wow, I finally have the opportunity to commentate on Wood's game. Kenny, do you know how painful it is to sit in front of the TV and watch the game? I've had enough. I can't wait for the start of the finals. It's

I believe Orlando will play so smoothly." Charles Barkley appeared in front of the audience shaking his head.

"Is it your credit? You are the most shameless guy I have ever seen. No one else, Jeff, don't you think so?" Kenny Smith turned around and asked.

Sitting to the left of Kenny Smith is Jeff Van Gundy, who was recently fired by the Houston Rockets. Recently, Huo Zhenting is actively inviting Phil Jackson to coach the Hong Kong team. Once Phil Jackson refuses, Huo Zhenting will target Jeff.

Van Gundy.

"Kenny, do I need to say more? Saying he is a waste of time, maybe we can talk about the upcoming game." Jeff Van Gundy said with a smile.

"Charles, you who call yourself a die-hard Lin Mi, can you tell me what you think?" Kenny Smith pushed the dissatisfied Buckley.

"Well, although I really hope that the Magic can win the game, I know that is not realistic. I remember this season that you and I witnessed Wood's second-half explosion and the final victory over the Spurs, but the chance of such a game happening is too high.

He is too young, and the finals are not regular season. Greg is an extremely cunning guy, and Wood will be in a lot of trouble, not to mention Dwight and Darko, who are still very immature inside."

"You mean you don't think much of Orlando either. Jeff, what do you think?"

"Kenny, Charles and I have similar opinions. If there is no accident, it is unrealistic for Orlando to win the championship." Jeff Van Gundy said.

At this time, the starting players of both sides also came on the court. Chris Webber, as a top power forward who was once as famous as Duncan, partnered with Howard in the post, while Turkoglu, Azubuike and Linsen were the other three starters.

For the Spurs, Oberto and Duncan are partnered in the post. The small forward is defensive expert Bruce Bowen. The back line is left to Mike Finley and Tony Parker. The Argentine Demon Blade, who has performed well in the playoffs this season, is still on the bench.

On the table.

"The good game is about to begin!"

With Kenny Smith's words, the game kicked off, and Howard still won steadily with the jump ball, but this became the only time Howard defeated Duncan in the game.

Tony Parker mainly defended Linsen, but this was not the focus of **Vicchi's defense. **Vicchi focused his defense on containing others.

Howard was taken care of by Duncan and became a complete background. Not only was he unable to attack well, he was also unable to defend. After playing only four minutes in the first quarter, he was fouled twice by Duncan and had to rest.

Chris Webber is no longer as skilled as he was in the past and can only shoot mid-range shots. However, under the care of Oberto, his touch is also very poor. The offensive end of Milicic who was replaced was also restrained by Duncan.

Turkoglu on the front line was blocked by Bruce Bowen and only passed the ball. Rookie Azubuike was not as outstanding as he was in the regular season.

Even if Lin Sen made 6 shots in the first quarter and scored 16 points in a single quarter, it could not help the Magic chase the point difference to single digits.

At the end of the first half, the Magic relied on Linson's 28 points at halftime and were 18 points behind the Spurs. In the second half, Hill and Spurs veteran Devin Brown scored consecutive goals to help the Magic see some hope, but this was just a flash in the pan.

, without the inside containment, magic can't hurt the Spurs' neck bones at all.

"I think what Wood wants most at the moment must be his old teammate Eddie instead of Dwight, who looks like a primary school student in front of Tim!" Kenny Smith looked at having four fouls early and only scored 6 points and 6 rebounds.

Howard, who blocked two shots and sat off the court to rest, said.

When the game reached the sixth minute of the fourth quarter, Lin Sen, who had just played for two minutes, was replaced by Stan Van Gundy, which also announced that the Magic had completely given up on the game.

"Wood is feeling LeBron's loneliness!" Jeff Van Gundy said as he looked at Lin Sen, who turned to look at the big screen with unwilling eyes.
