“Damn it, Grant, you don’t really think I’m troubled by this trivial matter, do you?

Do you think I’m some kid crying over missing his dad?

No, I just don’t want to join in this stupid celebration.

Look at Shaq, look at the others, look at them, I have no idea what they’re doing.

They act like they’re already real champions, but in reality, we’re still empty-handed, we have nothing.

Altogether, the team doesn’t have more rings than Roger alone.

What is the Western Conference champion?

If I were Jerry Buss, I’d throw it in the trash the next day.

At Staples Center, even the Western Conference banner doesn’t deserve to be raised.

I’m just…

I’m just holding the Western Conference champion trophy imagining the taste of the championship.

The sweep in last season’s finals makes me sick every damn day.

This time I must win, nothing can stop me!

I have no mind for anything else, and certainly not for that old bastard Joe.

If you’re here to console me, save it, Grant, I’m perfectly fine.”

Grant Hill looked into Kobe’s determined eyes, feeling maybe he really was overthinking it.

He didn’t disturb Kobe anymore, stood up and left, giving Kobe plenty of private space he wanted.

After Hill left, Kobe continued to take out his phone, looking at the message already typed but not sent: “Why didn’t Joe come?”

Hesitating for a few seconds, he deleted all the letters, ultimately not sending the message.

To hell with it, he didn’t care.

He didn’t want to be distracted by any nonsense; he only wanted the championship, the championship that’s so close to him now.

Kobe now possessed an undisturbed stone heart; he only wanted victory.

And such a person often burst out with unimaginable power.

Just like when Roger pointed the gun at Jordan.

The sole surviving member of the new era’s four great guards had now aimed the gun at Roger.

—————–

11 games, 11 wins, all by double-digit margins.

The Lakers are the first team in NBA history to sweep two 50-win teams in the playoffs by double digits, and this is the Los Angeles Lakers team the Hawks now have to face.

— “Sports Illustrated.”

Roger’s myth may be ended by the Los Angeles Lakers, no doubt about it, during the regular season Roger beat the Lakers once, but I can hardly imagine anyone who can destroy the Lakers in a seven-game series.

— “Slam.”

This is the strongest Finals opponent Roger has ever faced in his career; surely, he knows that too.

Can Roger still fulfill his promise of a three-peat with the Hawks?

No one can predict that.

— “Hoop.”

The new era’s four great guards are lining up trying to snatch the crown off Roger’s head, but three of them have already fallen by the wayside.

Will Kobe be the sole winner?

— “Los Angeles Times.”

Roger is resisting the attacks of the younger generation; every one of the new era’s four great guards imagines Roger as Michael Jordan, and they all want to become Roger.

But there is only one Roger, and everything that happened to Michael Jordan will never happen to Roger!

— “Atlanta Journal-Constitution.”

“I know, perhaps sixty to seventy percent of the media believe the Los Angeles Lakers are unbeatable.

But I still have to say, this is a Roger in his prime, a Roger who is in total control.

Except for post-up moves, Roger’s skills have no weaknesses.

And his strict adherence to discipline has sculpted a perfect body, able to withstand any severe collisions and fouls, nor will it make him feel fatigued late in the game.

He can punish defenders shorter than him, as well as crush those taller.

The reverse is also true; on the defensive end, he makes all perimeter offensive players in the league suffer.

Plus, he knows how to use his teammates and knows when to take over the game.

He’s managed the locker room well, he’s no longer openly or privately harming his partners; everyone who plays alongside Roger enjoys it very much.

So, we won’t see the farce like Ray Allen and George Karl had, nor worry about the Hawks suddenly falling apart at some time.

I think the only problem with Roger now is there’s no opponent in the East that can keep him motivated to win.

He has nothing left to win; there’s only one year in his career he didn’t win the East, and he wasn’t even excited when he won MVP.

This situation can kill Roger’s desire to win; nobody likes repeatedly playing simple games, and I once worried Roger might leave at the peak like MJ did when he first retired.

But the Los Angeles Lakers perfectly solved this pain point, believe me, Roger sees the Lakers like a teenage boy peeking at a beautiful and vibrant senior, already raring to go.

So, this is the greatest player clashing with the most terrifying team.

However, one thing can be confirmed: anyone who thinks the Hawks or Lakers can easily defeat the other is an idiot.

This will definitely be a bloody, intense, tightly-contested, exciting Finals; no side can win effortlessly.

All these games in this series will eventually be selected into ESPN’s classic game channel.

At least for fans, this is a good thing; surely no one wants to see Roger easily abuse those poor West teams in the Finals anymore?

As a sports column writer, from a rational perspective, I cannot predict this final series.

But from an emotional standpoint, I one-hundred-percent support Roger and believe he’ll be the last one laughing.

God knows what surprises he’ll create for us.

In any case, we will know the answer tomorrow.

Get ready and go to bed early.

Then tomorrow night, we embrace greatness.”

— Bill Simmons “ESPN Magazine” column.
