Basketball starts with breathing

Chapter 303 Next season, Lu Yu terms? [The first update, please subscribe]

After the game, the Bulls celebrated and played all night in San Antonio. Lu Yu had a reason to avoid a few girlfriends. He flew back to Chicago the next morning.

Jessica went back to Spokane, Annie, Scarlett and Monica all went to their respective crews, only Charlize was out of filming recently and stayed in Chicago to accompany Lu Yu.

This is the only benefit of finding female stars as girlfriends. When they are busy filming, they have no time to care about what Lu Yu is doing.

Maybe they knew, but they just pretended not to know.

And there is a tacit understanding, they will not appear beside Lu Yu at the same time, and the drama of one man and two women, now only Annie and Charlize acquiesce, because they have reached an alliance agreement, of course, they will also stagger the time. , it's a pity.

After a two-day break, the Bulls held a grand championship parade in Chicago, and the entire Chicago became a paradise for fans to celebrate.

All the Bulls players will greet the fans on the parade float, this time will belong to them, this is what they have worked hard for a season, and it must be celebrated.

Lu Yu said to the team and the arena staff before the celebration: "We represent you, the life you bring us, the inspiration, all of these are important, that's it. Go cheer and let yourself Rejoice. We have a platform to do something unprecedented and represent the whole of Chicago. We're back, celebrate in Chicago, let's go."

During the celebration, Tyson Chandler took a friend's camera and started taking pictures, and at the same time shouted: "Pool party all summer!"

Head coach Bill Cartwright said: "The thing that makes me most happy is seeing the players who win the championship for the first time. In the journey of life, you always want to get back the feeling of the first time. The reality is that you will never again. It's going to feel that way, and it's only through Ron Artest, Richard Hamilton, Quentin Richardson that you can feel it again."

Despite the dividers on both sides of the celebration line, people skipped the dividers to get as close to their favorite players as possible.Crowd control seems to be an unfamiliar concept at the moment, but no one seems to care.

Brad Miller said: "It's been an amazing year and I told you not to let us win the championship. But obviously, no one can stop us."

Lu Yu stood in the first car, enjoying the support and cheers of the whole city, as if he had become a hero of the whole city.

The parade was followed by a grand press conference. The reason for the grand press conference was that not only were there many reporters carrying guns and cannons as before, but also tens of thousands of fans came to the scene.

Players and coaches have to come on stage to express their thoughts, interact with fans and reporters.

Lu Yu ranked third from last, followed by team general manager Jerry Krause and Bulls owner Jerry Runsdorf.

Legendary Bulls commentator Johnny Cole shouted: "The next one to play is our regular season and finals MVP, Chicago's superhero, Lu Yu!"

He made the ending of Lu Yu's name very long, very long. For a period of time, in order to pronounce Lu Yu's name correctly, he also went to study Chinese for a period of time.

As a commentator, Cole witnessed the Chicago Bulls' 90s six-time championship dynasty era, and also witnessed Michael Jordan's wonderful performance on the court.

Kerr and Jordan also developed a special pregame ritual. Before Jordan entered the stadium, he had to go to the broadcast booth where Kerr was sitting to shoot talcum powder.

Jordan said: "I can't remember when I started this habit. I just thought he was dressed very well, and I wanted to make a little mess."

And now, Kerr has once again witnessed the growth of a second Bulls superhero.

The fans cheered and applauded together. The applause and shouts of the audience continued for a long time. Lu Yu walked up to the stage and waved to all around him. Before that, he always felt that he would not be excited by winning the championship, but he really got it. When he won the championship, when he really stood in front of tens of thousands of fans, he felt that the championship was worth it.

Johnny Cole asked: "Lu Yu, many people say you are the next basketball god, what do you think?"

Lu Yu took the microphone and thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "I am me, different fireworks, I am not the next one, but I can be sure that I am the first Lu Yu, in my opinion, Michael is the world The basketball god of basketball, and I'm not that great, I just want to be the basketball god of the Bulls."

The fans applauded enthusiastically. Yes, Bulls fans only want Lu Yu to be the basketball god of the Bulls.

Besides, Lu Yu and Jordan have completely different styles.

I am me, different fireworks, Lu Yu not only plays well, but also speaks well.

Johnny Cole asked, "How many championships do you think you can bring to the Bulls?"

This is a concern of the fans. They hope that Lu Yu can bring many championships, not just this one, but a few more championships, so that Lu Yu has a better chance to surpass Michael Jordan.

"How many seats? No, no, no, I haven't thought about it. I just hope to play happily with my teammates and let other teams in the league see how well we cooperate."

Lu Yu paused for a moment, and then said solemnly: "The championship is only the result, and what we enjoy playing basketball is the process. Come on, brothers, again, basketball is for five people! Come on for us!"

Lu Yu said this classic line again, basketball is for five people, and this sentence also brought the atmosphere of the scene to its peak.

Cartwright sighed secretly in his heart. Lu Yu said a lot, as if he said something, but at the same time, he didn't say anything. This made the reporters at the scene have no topics to catch. I have to say that Lu Yu faced this kind of The ease of the scene is far beyond that of ordinary players.

When the general manager and team owner came to the stage to speak, the atmosphere was not so enthusiastic. Their topics were mainly about the future construction of the team, encouraging players to play with confidence, and big contracts are waiting for you.

There is nothing to adjust this year's Bulls lineup, and the team's salary space is also perfectly utilized. Lu Yu's contract next year is a team option, and the Bulls will definitely choose to implement it. After the end of next season, the Bulls will definitely choose to advance Renewal, that's a no-brainer.

The topic of the major media that day revolved around Lu Yu's speech. He is the core of the Bulls team, and naturally he is the most concerned person.

After winning the championship, Lu Yu's popularity has reached an astonishing height, not only in China, but all over the world. The entire basketball world knows that there is a Chinese player with super strength and a record of [-]% victory in the playoffs. Led the Bulls to a championship.

This year is a harvest year for Lu Yu.

Won the World Championship, the MVP of the World Championship, the NBA regular season MVP, the All-Star Game MVP, the Finals MVP, the NBA championship, not to mention other scattered honors, what kind of first defense, stealing king, etc. of.

Such achievements, not to mention the NBA, are rare in the entire world of basketball.

And this also makes NBA President David Stern firmly target Lu Yu to become the next basketball god and superhero.

The NBA is a place that needs superheroes.

In fact, the league has always known that the prosperity of the NBA is due to Jordan alone. From a niche sport that no one cares about to a world-famous sporting event, it is just a short process of Jordan's shooting star across the starry sky, because the niche is basketball. The essence of sports, it does not have the intensity of rugby, the blood of football, and the speed and passion of [-]-meter track and field, but it needs superheroes more than any sports.

In the era of the four major points after Jordan, the league seems to continue to rise, but in fact it is just an inertial development left by Jordan. The league has always known this truth, so for so many years, it has been tirelessly looking for the next. A shooting star, because they know that once the shooting star disappears, everything will return to its original appearance.

Perhaps relying on its existing popularity and fan base, it can maintain its business model, but it may be difficult to return to its former peak.

The world is a place that needs superheroes, America needs it, and the NBA needs it even more.

But neither Tracy McGrady, who has ridden the Savior alone in the past two years, nor Iverson, who has won a victory in the face of huge waves, can't carry the word superhero.

Not to mention Kobe Bryant, who is still growing up under O'Neal's wing.

If someone in the league has gone from a rookie to a super giant in just two years, there are only two people, one is Arenas who has not yet reached the super giant level, and the other is a super giant and has become a Chicago superhero Lu Yu.

Perhaps, in David Stern's blueprint, this year's draft LeBron James will also have a place.

But Iverson, Tracy McGrady, Arenas and Kobe did not go further than Lu Yu.

As for James, the guy nicknamed The King hasn't entered the draft yet.

Of course, Lu Yu knew that even if Lao Zhan was in the NBA, he probably only wanted to play brother basketball, which had nothing to do with the word superhero.

Lu Yu is actually quite optimistic about Arenas.

Because Arenas and the mighty Arenas in his previous life have changed, Arenas in this life has grown up in a low profile, and now he has become one of the dual cores of the warriors.

Mid-season soaring points also proved that Arenas has the potential to become a super giant.

Thinking of Arenas, Lu Yu thought of the so-called Arenas clause, but because of Lu Yu's butterfly effect, Arenas changed from a second-round pick to a first-round pick, so the Arenas clause could not appear. .

It's not impossible, but it may have to wait for the next second-round pick as good as Arenas, such as... This year's Manu Ginobili or Tony Parker from the Spurs?
The NBA has many clauses. The more famous clauses named after players are the Bird Rights Clause, the Arenas Clause, and the Rose Clause.

Ross hasn't appeared yet, but Lu Yu has appeared.

I don't know if the alliance will make a clause in Lu Yu's name at the end of next year... Lu Yu clause.
