Mountain Peak System: a Path to NBA
Chapter 835 - 300: Ascending the Divine Staircase—The Rightful GOAT
However, Curry, who tried to imitate Ah Tai and Davis by attacking Qin Yue, was not so lucky.
Because Qin Yue had noticed Curry's movements early on, so before Curry launched his attack, Qin Yue decisively pinned Curry to the floor and gave him a good "bullying".
On TNT TV Station, watching the Warriors players already celebrating victory on the sidelines, Barkley laughed and said: "This is why so many players in the NBA long to be champions, because the joy of winning a championship is unique."
In response, O'Neal couldn't help but retort: "Charles, have you ever won a championship?"
Upon hearing this, Barkley said: "I haven't won a championship, but I have the heart of a champion, Shaq."
On the court, the process of this fifth game of the Finals was no longer of interest to anyone.
After all, in a game with a decided outcome, who would care about the process?
At this moment, for the home fans, they even wished this game could end immediately.
"Messiah said at the end of the fourth game that he had already prepared his victory speech in advance. Charles, knowing Messiah as you do, what do you think his victory speech will say?"
"If I were Messiah, I would definitely say, 'Now, what reason do you have to say I'm not better than that old bastard Michael Jordan?'
End of the game, 88 to 131.
For the Knicks players who endured torture throughout the entire game, the moment the buzzer signaling the end of the game sounded, they finally found relief.
In stark contrast to the Knicks players...
Were the Warriors players, who felt that no amount of celebration was enough.
Oracle Arena.
Amidst the thunderous cheers of the home fans, at the moment Qin Yue personally cut down the net for the team, the Warriors became the first team in the NBA's complete statistical history to win four consecutive championships, not only further solidifying their dynasty.
And, on that star-studded path to greatness, Qin Yue also crossed the threshold named Michael Jordan.
From this point on, the basketball world officially welcomed a new GOAT, a new God of Basketball.
Conquer all directions, unify the six realms.
This era is named Great Qin!
On the court, as the Warriors players, who had been celebrating for a while, returned to the locker room to change into championship T-shirts and put on the championship hats, the entire arena reached a peak moment once again.
On the main stand in Oakland, as Qin Yue led the Warriors back to the center of the court, a giant Tifo unfolded, capturing the attention of all the world.
Six rings.
A crown.
A single punch knocking down a cartoon "Egghead" wearing a Bulls No. 23 jersey. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Stomping on cartoon caricatures of Kobe, O'Neal, Duncan, Nowitzki, Wade, Garnett, Yao Ming, James, Durant, and other contemporary stars.
Amid the resounding chants of "GOAT, GOAT"...
Although Qin Yue himself always felt that the "Cartoon Qin Yue" on the Tifo was not drawn dominantly enough.
But for the entire basketball world, this Tifo fittingly reflected Qin Yue's status in the contemporary basketball scene.
Eight-year professional career, seven complete seasons.
Countless personal records.
Countless great battles.
And countless trophies in his collection.
At the center of the court, as league commissioner David Stern voluntarily stepped aside, leaving the main stage for Qin Yue, Qin Yue took the microphone from the on-site host and finally said the words his supporters most wanted to hear.
"Now, let me say that I believe I have achieved at least as much as Michael Jordan. Does anyone disagree?"
Disagree?
At this moment, who would dare to disagree?
Even in the eyes of the home fans, Qin Yue had given plenty of face to that old bastard Jordan.
After all, what Qin Yue was saying now was that he could stand shoulder to shoulder with Jordan.
Not surpass Jordan.
No doubt about it.
This was definitely the most humble moment in the eyes of Warriors fans for Qin Yue.
Regarding this, Barkley sighed with emotion: "To be honest, I still prefer the old Messiah."
O'Neal laughed and said: "Can you tell us why, Charles?"
Barkley said: "Because the old Messiah would not be this humble, screw humility, why is it in this world that people always like to demand successful people to be humble?"
Humility?
Just asking, does this word really have anything to do with Qin Yue?
On the court, after enjoying a wave of applause, Qin Yue continued: "I know that in many people's hearts, I surpass Michael Jordan in both skills and looks."
(Applause)
"But I must say, you cannot ignore Michael's outstanding contributions to the sport of basketball and the NBA because of my greatness."
"Without exaggeration, our generation lives under the blessing of Michael Jordan."
"So, even though I also believe I am the greatest player in history, out of respect for Michael, I will never say 'Now what reason do you have to say I'm not better than that old bastard Michael Jordan?'"
(Applause and laughter)
In Qin Yue's previous life, the most anti-intellectual statement he ever heard about the NBA was undoubtedly, "In the GOAT debate, you can't just compare skills, you must also consider the player's off-court influence."
How anti-intellectual is this statement?
In Qin Yue's view, those fans who are willing to ignore the facts to elevate someone to the GOAT position may not realize...
