610: 217: I will lead you forward (Asking for monthly passes!)_2 610: 217: I will lead you forward (Asking for monthly passes!)_2 The reporters below erupted into laughter.

Who would have thought that the once-dominant Michael Jordan had now become a mere foil to Roger’s greatness, a source of amusement.

The reporters were all laughing, but Jerry Sloan’s heart was filled with extreme bitterness.

After the dissolution of the strongest duo in history, was it really time for other teams’ spring to arrive?

No, it was far from that simple.

The game was undoubtedly a huge blow to the Jazz, and the 21-point gap made their first victory seem like a fluke.

The team’s morale had certainly been affected.

Jerry Sloan had to find a way to get the team back on track; otherwise, the game might not return to Salt Lake City.

After arriving in Atlanta, the atmosphere of the finals became even more fervent.

Every day, countless fans flooded the streets, cheering for the Hawks.

Just three more victories, and the fans in Georgia would see their dreams fulfilled.

Just three more victories, and Roger would indeed become the ultimate savior.

Just three more victories, and Atlanta would be able to shake off the shadows cast by the World Series and the Super Bowl.

Just three more victories, and Roger would become the first superstar to establish a “personal dynasty”!

On the streets of Atlanta, everyone wore the Hawks’ number 14 jerseys, following their deity.

All the people of Atlanta were ready to celebrate.

A resplendent history seemed to be just three victories away.

At that time, few people cared about what Karl Malone said after arriving in Atlanta: “If we hadn’t thought about winning, we wouldn’t have boarded the plane to Atlanta.”

When he said this, his voice was powerful, and his gaze was more determined than in the past 13 years.

It wasn’t just Karl Malone; after the exceedingly discouraging defeat in the previous game, the entire Jazz team seemed far from despondent.

Even a nice guy like Jeff Hornacek was yelling at the camera: “Get a good shot of our faces, it’s us who will bring the championship back to Salt Lake City!”

Indeed, on the night after G2, the Jazz locker room was as Jerry Sloan had expected, deathly quiet.

Even Karl Malone felt that he could no longer see any hope for a championship.

Roger was like a superman who could do anything, beating down all those who looked like villains.

Just thinking about Roger’s unreasonable three-pointers, the entire Jazz team felt helpless.

Even the Jazz’s greatest strength, “putting people to sleep with vicious elbows,” was no match for the Hawks now.

This situation made everyone in the Jazz doubt themselves.

Jerry Sloan saw all of this, so today, when the Jazz players boarded the plane, each of them found an envelope on the small table in front of their seats.

It was an open letter from Jerry Sloan to the whole team.

“My dear family, there’s no mistake, the entire locker room felt sorrowful, as if a bomb had exploded in it after G2.

We’re all disappointed because we couldn’t hold our ground at home.

The whole world thinks that the Atlanta Hawks are about to rise to the top.

The whole world believes that Roger’s personal dynasty is within reach, and that we are just one of the many backdrops.

But looking back at our journey through the playoffs to this point, it seems as if everything has made us the most unique presence in history.

We took down the legendary trio of the Rockets in the first round.

Back then, we were behind 2-1, with the Rockets at match point, and the media were all talking about the black eight miracle.

But who had the last laugh in G4 and G5?

In the decisive fifth game, we had Karl with 29 points and 13 rebounds, John shooting 5 out of 8, Dikembe with 3 blocks, and everyone’s hard work!

We turned things around against the trio, and then came across another team that was prematurely crowned by the media.

But Tim and David couldn’t stop us.

We made Gregg Popovich rage like thunder with his complaints, we caused David to get completely lost, and we showed the world that Tim Duncan wasn’t that strong yet.

Remember the final battle?

We curbed the Spurs with our proactive team defense, their three-point shooting 1 for 11, lowered David’s shooting percentage to 31%, and kept Tim to just 14 points, shattering the championship dreams of all San Antonio media!

Then we continued to advance, facing another so-called championship favorite, that giant from Florida whom countless media had dubbed the league’s number one center.

What happened?

Those arrogant bastards couldn’t win a single game against us, that’s right, they couldn’t achieve even one damn victory!

We completely took down the Lakers, turning those self-professed big-city stars who called us country bumpkins into the biggest losers!

This is us!

This is us!

We are the number one seed in the West.

Every opponent we faced was a favorite to win the championship.

Yet we have knocked down five of the top 50 stars to get here!

So, what does all this mean?

It means we’ve always been creating greatness out of hardship!

Because we are strong enough, that’s why we’ve come this far!

Now, what lies in front of us is just another championship favorite.

The whole world is talking about Atlanta’s redemption, talking about Roger’s personal dynasty.

Like in the previous rounds, no one favored us.

But so what?

NBA history has chosen us.

Don’t run away, don’t be afraid, there’s no need for despondency, it’s an opportunity given by fate.

We will overcome another great opponent and then make history!”
