NBA: Start with a three-point experience card

Chapter 696 Cigars and Champagne Go Better When Winning the Championship
O'Neill was taken aback when he saw that Xiao Hua was about to present the award first.

Immediately, the words in his mouth changed directly: "I invite the loyal followers of Lord of the Rings Bill Russell to present the award to Wang Yi."

Wang Yi disliked Xiao Hua's approach very much.

Chinese traditional culture is to respect the elders.

What's more, Bill Russell is such a legendary superstar.

As a result, as soon as Xiao Hua took office, he ignored Bill Russell.

The trophy named after someone else should naturally be awarded by someone else, what the hell are you Xiao Hua.

He deliberately didn't want to accept this trophy, but he earned this trophy by himself, so why not.

But if you want it, where will you put the legendary superstar Bill Russell?

Ever since, Wang Yi had an idea in his heart.

After receiving the trophy, he said into the microphone:

"This is called the Bill Russell Cup. I think if he touched it himself, it would be equivalent to giving away the trophy. From now on, everything will go smoothly for me, F MVP every year."

As he spoke, he came to Bill Russell with the Bill Russell Cup in his hand.

Bill Russell is now an old man with gray hair, and he seems to be trembling when he sits there.

But Wang Yi still handed the trophy to him: "Senior, consecrate it for me."

When Bill Russell heard this, a smile appeared on his sluggish face.

My affection for Wang Yi doubled in my heart.

He stretched out his right hand and stroked the trophy lightly.

It wasn't until this moment that Wang Yi held up the FMVP trophy that glittered with golden and silver lights.

His first heavyweight individual trophy in his NBA career!

At the American Airlines Center, where James, Wade, Dragon King, and Bosh once fought.

Wang Yi held up the Bill Russell Cup.

On top of the trophy is a basketball, glittering with golden light.

Below is a round platform that is approximately cylindrical, with the shape of a basketball net engraved on it, shining silver.

In short, just one word: high-end atmosphere and high-grade.

From top to bottom, there is a compelling air of king.

Finals Most Valuable Player, referred to as FMVP!
Another MVP.

Wang Yi once won the MVP in the All-Star Game.

But in the final analysis, the All-Star Game is a performance, and the All-Star Game MVP is nothing.

Compared with the regular season MVP and the finals MVP, it is only a few dimensions behind.

For every player in the NBA, there are three most important awards.

The first is naturally the championship.

The importance of the championship that countless players have struggled for all their lives is self-evident.

The second is the regular season MVP.

Receiving this award means that among the leading stars of all 30 teams, you have the greatest effect on the team.

One can imagine the weight of this award.

The third is FMVP.

How many players struggle for a championship all their lives.

And how many of those players who won the championship can win the F MVP?

Every year, more than a dozen players win the championship, and only one FMVP is produced among them. Winning this award shows that you are the most beautiful boy in the finals. .

To evaluate a player's historical status, the number of championships, the number of MVPs, and the number of fmvp are three hardware standards.

Now Wang Yi has finally won the championship and his first F MVP.

But his ambitions are big.

How is one enough?
How is FMVP enough?
He wants two, three, four, five...

Beyond James, Kobe, and even beyond the basketball god!
Wang Yi asked Bill Russell to consecrate the trophy, which won the favor of countless fans. Even if he was not a fan of Wang Yi before, Wang Yi's performance in the finals had already made them cast their eyes on Wang Yi. Yi's performance in this game directly made Wang Yi countless fans.

Next, Wang Yi was holding the MVP trophy, and several other players were holding the championship trophy. Everyone held cigars in their mouths and took pictures in front of dozens of media reporters.

It's called a Victory cigar.

It originated from the legendary NBA coach, Red Auerbach.

Cardinal Auerbach was a big fan of cigars.

Always light a cigar and smoke leisurely when the team's game is about to end and the team's victory has been determined.

He later led the Celtics to an unprecedented 8 consecutive championships.

During the 8 consecutive championships, he can often be seen sitting on the sidelines and smoking a cigar leisurely.

Every time after winning the championship, there is a special draw.

Therefore, many teams in the NBA have followed suit, and they must smoke cigars when they win the championship, even if they don't know how to smoke.

But now, in order to have a more positive image, the NBA no longer allows real cigars to be lit on the spot.

So now every player just has a cigar in his mouth and doesn't light it.

At the same time, in a villa far away on the mountainside of Los Angeles.

James watched the game in his home theater.

I just saw the picture of Wang Yi and the Kings players holding cigars and taking pictures with the trophy.

He poured himself a glass of red wine and took a sip silently.

Seeing James' appearance, his wife Savannah wanted to speak, but she didn't.

She knew that James was definitely not feeling well now.

What James wants to pursue is greatness.

His ambition from the beginning was not just a championship.

He wants to surpass Kobe and Jordan.

Beyond Kobe he seems to have done so far.

But overtaking Jordan looked hopeless by the time he retired.

To surpass Jordan, first of all, the number of championships is two short.

Although he once said that the number of championships is not a measure of historical status, he also knows that it is nothing more than self-deception.

Isn't basketball just about winning?

And isn't the ultimate form of winning a championship?

Wouldn't it be ridiculous to say that the number of championships is not a measure of historical status.

He originally thought that even if he couldn't catch up with Jordan's number of championships before he retired, he would at least win 5 championships.

But now it seems that he is drifting away from the fifth championship trophy.

Even though he still has great ambitions and aspirations, time makes people grow old.

His physical condition is getting worse every year, and his competitive state is getting worse every year.

Time can transform him from an immature boy into a mature man, making him honorable and sought after by thousands of fans.

It can also make him change from a flying superstar to an old man who can only rely on experience and touch to play.

Time, you're a fucking bitch.

What made him even more speechless was that if Wang Yi was still on the Lakers this year, the championship would probably belong to the Lakers.

It ended up getting screwed over by that stupid woman, Jenny Buss.

At the same time in Phoenix, in a mansion.

The veteran Paul looked at Wang Yi in the picture, with endless loneliness and sadness in his eyes.

When he first debuted, he was heroic, with a white horse and a long gun. At that time, his heart was higher than the sky.

He wants to win four or five MVPs, he wants to win four or five championships, he wants to win four or five FM VPs, and he wants to become a legendary superstar.

But now standing at the tail end of his career, time has worn away his ambition.

His life is thinner than paper.

Every time it comes to a critical moment in the playoffs, either he is injured or his teammates are injured.

So much so that he hasn't been able to win the championship until now.

What four or five MVPs, four or five championships, four or five F MVPs, seems a little strange to me now.

In his dream at midnight, all he saw was the golden O'Brien Cup.

God, can I have an O'Brien Cup?

I don't want anything else, I'm not greedy.

All I want is the O'Brien Cup, just one.

At the same time, Gua Ge Anthony is as lonely as Paul.

James has 4 championships anyway, and Paul has led the team to the finals anyway.

And what about yourself?

I haven't even touched the floor of the finals.

Seeing the twilight years of his career, he can only hold his thighs around, wanting to seek a championship ring-for a player who was once known as the peerless double pride with James, how difficult it is for him to achieve this .

He had to let go of the pride in his heart, the arrogance and arrogance.

For a player of his level to hug his thigh—this is simply a shame for him.

But for the sake of the championship, he can bear it.

However, even if he hugged his thigh, he failed to get a championship ring.

Could it be that in this life, after all, I will miss the championship?
Looking at the Kings in the picture and Wang Yi holding up the FMVP trophy, he couldn't help but fell into confusion.
