Golden State Warriors and Boston Celtics begin to decide the NBA title this Thursday (2) in San Francisco.
The Warriors are the third most champions team, alongside the Chicago Bulls, with six titles.
The Celtics share the first place on the podium with the Los Angeles Lakers, with no less than 17 titles.
One can isolate himself as the third biggest winner, with seven cups, and the other, be alone in the highest place, with 18.
They will play at least four times, the first two games in San Francisco and the other two in Boston.
If there is no improbable 4-0 sweep, the fifth game returns to San Francisco; if necessary, the sixth will be in Boston, and the seventh is scheduled for the city of the charming Golden Gate Bridge, for the best campaign of the team directed by Steve Kerr. The devil will be there.
Kerr was a three-time champion as a player for the Bulls, alongside Michael Jordan, the Pele of basketball, and sees some similarity between Jordan and Stephen Curry, his best man. “I think Stephen is like Michael Jordan in many ways. There are so many amazing moments where he doesn’t even stand out anymore because that’s what you expect him to do. So maybe that’s his biggest sign of greatness,” he said in an interview. late last year to enhance Curry’s collective spirit.
Despite being the all-time record holder for three-pointers, setting a record that will be as difficult to break as Pele’s 1,283 goals, Curry, 34, plays basketball, a team sport, not an individual basket ball.
Joining him is brother Klay Thompson, 32, almost as deadly as he is in long-distance shooting, and the heart and soul of the quintet, the explosive Draymond Green, 32.
Kerr, who also coaches the US Olympic team, is something of a Pep Guardiola of basketball, not just for the changes he introduced to the game, but for his engagement on social issues.
His outburst after yet another massacre caused by the criminal arms policy in the United States, last week, at a school in Texas, won the world. “In the last ten days, we’ve had elderly black people killed in a supermarket in Buffalo. We’ve had Asian worshipers murdered in Southern California. And now we’ve got kids murdered at school. When are we going to do something? I’m tired of this. condolences to the devastated families out there… I’m tired of the minutes of silence. Enough!”, he pounded the press conference table, refused to talk about basketball, got up and left.
Kerr, born in Lebanon, lost his father, dean of the American University of Beirut, in 1984 to two shots in the back of the head in a terrorist attack.
Boston returns to the finals after 12 years and already played a decision with San Francisco, 58 years ago, when they won 4-1.
Jayson Tatum, 24, is the Celts’ biggest draw, another kick-ass pitcher, who shoots three-pointers like he’s blowing kisses to his girlfriend.
He kicking and Marcus Smart, 28, scoring and passing, are the two main weapons to prevent the experienced Golden State’s small favoritism from materializing.
As I hope there are no rare readers or rare readers who support the Boston Celtics, I share my support for Curry, Kerr, Green and Thompson. For basketball — and for attitudes.
Go, Warriors, go!
