Chapter 1115: Chapter 355: You Will et an Opponent Who Can Save You, But That Person Is Not
Yes, Robert Horry is a master of clutch shots, but that doesn’t an he makes every single one.
After missing this shot, the Warriors imdiately counter-attacked, aiming to seal the ga completely.
But Stadeyer made a sloppy pass; he charged with the ball against the Admiral, only to find himself surrounded, and in his panic, he flung the ball in the direction of Roger outside the three-point line.
However, Stadeyer’s pass was really too high, almost going out of bounds.
The Spurs players on the scene lit up with hope, as if they saw a chance for a coback.
If this pass truly ended in a turnover, it would be compared to Klay Thompson’s outrageous behind-the-back pass in the finals.
But then, what people saw was Roger jumping up with all his might, spreading his fingers in the air and grabbing the ball securely as if his hand was coated with glue. Upon landing, Roger smoothly took a step forward, then abruptly stopped and shot the ball, scoring with ease!
A ball dood to be a mistake was turned into a solid 2 points by Roger.
Bruce Bowen shook his head; he’s not soone who easily lets go of hatred. He would definitely kill you personally, a fate decided last year.
The ga ended, 4 to 0, with Roger taking away everything from the Spurs players.
He took away Tim Duncan’s halo of greatness.
He took away David Robinson’s last hope of a championship.
He took away Gary Payton’s final expectations.
He also took away the joy of all fans in the Lone Star State, giving the land pain.
For the first ti in the playoffs, Tim Duncan lost to Roger, and it was deeply morable.
After it all ended, Duncan and Roger hugged.
Seeing Roger about to speak, Duncan imdiately interrupted: “Don’t say ‘the future is mine,’ you liar.”
Roger couldn’t help but laugh; who would’ve thought that one day Duncan would be fooled by this line?
“I didn’t an to deceive you, Tim; have you ever thought that your future hasn’t co yet? You’ll et that person coming to save you.”
“No, I’ll never et a better teammate than David.” Duncan said, glancing at the devastated David Robinson.
The Admiral’s career ended, finished in disappointnt.
The forr first pick, who once triggered a frenzy across the United States, ends up with a bleak conclusion.
The entire series, David Robinson seed like an extrely average player, becoming a man bearing humiliation for a lofty dream.
Even so, he still didn’t get a good enough ending.
Duncan doesn’t want to leave the league like that.
Just as Tim Duncan was reflecting, Roger smiled and waved: “I’m not talking about teammates; I’m saying you might et an opponent who can save you. But that person isn’t .”
“An… opponent who can save ?”
“What’s so surprising about that?” Roger blinked.
Not only will he save you, but he might also save others.
After speaking, the entire Spurs team withdrew, and the Warriors held up the Western Conference champion trophy in Texas.
Roger gave the right to receive the trophy to Stoudemire. Though Stoudemire wanted to refuse politely, Roger told him: “This toy is more suitable for you; it would be too childish for to hold.”
Indeed, to a man praised as the GOAT, the Western Conference champion is rely a toy.
GOAT may not yield many championships, but believe , there will definitely be a pile of conference champion trophies.
DPOY, MVP, and the Spurs curse, Roger has already dealt with them.
He’s only missing one thing to announce: “This is my year.”
Just that one more thing.
—————–
Yes, this is my final season, but I’ve already booked tickets for the next season; I’ll never leave the Spurs. I’ll watch Tim climb to the top again; he definitely will. — David Robinson discusses the end of his career.
People won’t be surprised by his greatness because they’re used to his excellence. Roger is undoubtedly a great opponent. But what will be the result of the finals? Will Roger, the DPOY, be trapped by extre defense? Let’s wait and see. — Tim Duncan calmly talks about Roger’s return to the finals.
What did Roger and I talk about? Hmm… that’s our secret. — Duncan doesn’t tell reporters about his conversation with Roger regarding “an opponent who can save you.”
“Roger, what does returning to the finals an to you?”
“Nothing special; returning to the finals isn’t our ultimate goal. I can only say, the first glorious mont since 1975 for the Bay Area is coming. The championship trophy will remain in Oakland; that’s what we must achieve before we leave. I won’t leave any place empty-handed, not this ti either.”
“Facing one of the strongest defensive teams in NBA history, this finals journey is destined to be challenging. Do you think your team is ready?”
“This question will be answered by Craig Popovich, who doesn’t watch the tapes, next door. If you don’t have ti to visit him, Detroit Pistons will answer you.”
— Roger being interviewed by ESPN.
