basketball never sleeps

Chapter 223 Return of the Dead

Mo Wen returned home and had two trainers give him a routine check-up and massage. He then turned around and fell directly onto the fluffy pillow, completely unaware of how much "trouble" his behavior tonight had caused to others.

I can’t be sleepy. I can’t be sleepy at all!

After brushing off the eye mucus caused by his anger, Popovich turned over and sat up in bed.

Ever since the team was swept last year, he has identified Mo Wen as the toughest stumbling block in his coaching career. Compared with most coaches, he has overestimated Mo Wen as much as possible.

But Mo Wen's performance today still made him feel as if a stone was breaking in his chest.

The Spurs won their first championship after Jordan retired, and were suppressed by the OK combination for three consecutive years when they thought they had a bright future. Just when they took a breath and won a championship, the unsolvable Heat Big Three came again. Popovich hates this kind of superstar or combination that can dominate the era more than anyone else.

The day before yesterday, he opened a bottle of aged wine specially for the disintegration of the Heat, but in the blink of an eye, the "disintegration of the devil" turned into "unsealing of the devil"?
If Mo Wen dares to slaughter the Mavericks today, he will dare to slaughter the Spurs tomorrow!
Is there still law in this cannibalistic world? Is there still law?
There are many people who share the same idea as Popovich.

Of course, Mo Wen's departure has greatly reduced the Heat's competitiveness, but given Mo Wen's current strength, can he be held down even if he switches to a weaker team?

The support of superstar teammates, the luxurious bench lineup, and the Mavericks' inappropriate tactical choices - no matter how much water there is in the 60+ in the finals, it is still 60+!

Many people still remember this era as two years ago when the team scored a total of 60 to 70 points.

The "demon bird and body" thing is a thing of the past. The "shadow of the emperor" behind Mo Wen may also include Danzi!
Based on Mo Wen's scoring explosiveness, many people have begun to doubt Mo Wen's ability to be the assist king.

So you're just being lazy with all those assists, right?

It must be said that no matter how tightly the dumplings are wrapped, the filling will still come out if they are cooked for too long...

In addition to the worried coaches of each team, many players also couldn't sleep.

Especially in the Dream Team 7 training camp in Las Vegas, envy, jealousy, suspicion, admiration, all kinds of emotions intertwined in the night sky, haunting the tired young people and making it difficult for them to fall asleep.

Kobe, a man of action, went out with a moon backpack on his head. That kid must have worked harder than him to grow so fast. Starting today, he also has to practice more!

In the United States, apart from "neurotic" people like Kobe, not many people would choose to disturb others' sleep at this time, but on the other side of the earth, the country was once again detonated.

Domestic fans thought that their excitement threshold had been trained very high by Mo Wen, and they believed that they would no longer shout and scream like ignorant bumpkins.

But when 62 points were in front of them...

It’s just “Conquer”, can’t I just sing it?
……

The outside world did not have much time to reminisce, as the schedule only gave them one day of rest, and taking into account the venue transfer, it was basically equivalent to working around the clock.

The Mavericks felt even more pressure when they returned to their home court.

The young general still wanted to use the tactics from the last game. He didn't believe that Mo Wen could have two consecutive hits, but Cuban, the boss who really liked to make himself known, refused to allow it.

Cuban: Is Mo your real father? He's been beaten into a pig's head, but you're still rushing to give him your head?
Little General: Is Mo your biological father? Are you willing to give up the hope of the team’s victory for him?
Looking at Cuban's attitude, the young general was quite puzzled.

Three years ago, Cuban was willing to let Nowitzki play at the risk of injury just to win the Western Conference Finals, which directly led to the deterioration of his relationship with old Nelson.

How come Cuban just gave up so easily now that the Mavericks have reached the finals?

We, your servants, were ready to fight to the death; why did Your Majesty surrender first?
It’s actually not difficult to understand from Cuban’s perspective.

Although it was only the Western Conference Finals three years ago, due to the influence of Danzi's "imperial power", there were no outstanding teams in the Eastern Conference, and winning the Western Conference Finals would basically win the championship with a high probability.

At that time, the Mavericks' team doctor judged that Nowitzki would be able to return to the game, but the disagreement lay in the fact that old Nelson was unwilling to let his beloved disciple gamble on his future career.

And now, it seems that the Mavericks are only one step away from perfection, but looking at the prehistoric behemoth blocking their way, they know that this road is blocked.

Seeing Mo Wen showing off his strength on the road, Cuban was already worried. If he were to be beaten like this again when he returned to his home court, how would he be able to hold his head up in front of the people of Dallas?
The Mavericks finally returned to their normal strategy and deployed a series of double-team tactics targeting Mo Wen.

The Heat also changed their tactical arrangements. Wade finally got back the ball he had been longing for. He will prove himself to the world tomorrow that he is not the third in command of the Heat!
This is my…time!

If he hadn't been injured last year, if it wasn't for that damn Bowen, if...

Wade was still enjoying his fantasy time in the hotel room when suddenly a "whoosh" sound came from the direction of the door.

Wade was still wondering, when he looked up he saw a colorful picture album passing through the crack in the door.

Out of curiosity, he got out of bed and picked up the picture album.

The shocking picture was reflected directly on his retina. There was no such thing as "a beautiful girl in her twenties with a body as soft as butter" or "a fairy with enchanting beauty and well-proportioned body". The less educated Wade could only think of two words - so big, so white!

Pooh!
You scheming Dallasites, are you using this to test your officers?

What haven't I seen in Miami?

Where is morality? Where is the bottom line? Where is dignity? Where is the contact information?

No matter how much he despised her or how agitated he was, Wade still had a clear idea of ​​what was going on before the big battle, not to mention that this was a double room.

The purpose of double rooms is to allow players to supervise each other. After all, there have been cases where players could not bear the loneliness and secretly went out to find food or pick up girls before the game.

Not long after, Mo Wen came out of the bathroom and looked at Wade, who was flipping the blanket for no reason, with a strange look on his face.

Why do these cheeks look sneaky and like they are eating something secretly?

Before Mo Wen could think about it, there was an angry knock on the door.

"Those bitches in Dallas, I knew they were going to play tricks on me, fuck their whole family..."

When the door opened, an indignant Da Fan was seen holding a magazine that was not completely torn.

"Mo, did your room receive this?"

Mo Wen raised his eyebrows and looked at Wade on the other side.

Wade pretended to listen to a CD, then took off his headphones and showed an innocent expression.

"No? It's okay, you guys take a rest." Da Fan looked at the expressions of the two men and didn't doubt him. He turned around and knocked on the door of the next room while cursing.

After closing the door, Mo Wen glanced at Wade with a meaningful look.

"Michael (Finley) is a local, and Shaq has connections here too. If you want to play in the game, you can ask them to arrange it. Don't think too much about it now."

"Uh-huh??"

The big-cheeked guy frowned in confusion.

"Remember to turn off the lights next time you lie. You don't normally have such rich expressions, idiot."

Mo Wen curled his lips in disdain and turned off the ceiling light.

"Here, here, here, you bastard. I hid it so as not to affect you. You are such an ungrateful person."

The lights went out, and Wade broke down. He pulled out the book and threw it at Mo Wen.

Mo Wen moved to the side, opened the door and kicked the unclean thing that had just landed on the ground out.

He really doesn't want it.

There is no such thing as Liu Xia Hui. There are just beautiful women in their early 30s, mature women in their 20s, girls who are about to become legal, and lolita in their prime years. Naturally, people in the family cannot feel any appreciation for these worldly people with flabby waists, tattoos and eyebrows.

Kidney Qi, or the level of related hormone secretion in Western medical science, is related to the body's explosive power. Mo Wen is too lazy to interfere in other people's lives as long as it doesn't affect him.

……

The sun and the moon took over, and G3 of the finals arrived as scheduled.

At the American Airlines Center, what various media described as the "second half of the tragedy" also began.

The two sides broke up their formations, and the Mavericks players were stunned again.

Why is Wade holding the ball again?
The frustration of not getting tested on key points once again overwhelmed the entire Mavericks team.

However, seeing that Mo Wen did not have the ball also made them feel relieved to some extent. If they had a choice, they would definitely prefer to face Mo Wen without the ball.

Even when Mo Wen doesn't have the ball, he can still make them tremble with his shots.

With the insistence of Cuban and other coaching staff members, the rhythm of the game returned to G1 of the Finals, except that Mo Wen and Wade swapped their positions on the court.

The Mavericks' defense against Wade was not successful. With Mo Wen as his backup, Wade was more determined to break through and kill than he had been in history.

In theory, the only players who can match up against the flexible little cannon are players of the same type as him.

Unfortunately, the Mavericks do not have such a reserve of players.

The retreat of Danpi and Diop can solve some of the problems, but Wade is not the kind of player who only knows how to act recklessly. He can do pull-ups, folds, and throws off rebounds. Under Mo Wen's training, he is technically better than his historical self.

Political Commissar Ma had boasted before that if he could grow to 2 meters, he would be invincible.

But Wade told everyone that height is not an excuse.

If you are really talented, you should become "Short Jordan" instead of "If Jordan".

Unfortunately, the short Jordan is still a little lacking in leading his teammates. Wade has been a finishing point for a long time, and his observation direction is more focused on the opponent's defensive loopholes, so he is not so sensitive to discovering opportunities for his teammates.

The Mavericks, benefiting from the referee's care, also showed good offensiveness.

Terry and Harris' continuous breakthroughs caused damage and also caused great trouble to the Heat's defense.

After the first quarter, Wade scored 11 points, Mo Wen scored 8 points, and O'Neal fouled out and rested early, only getting 4 points and 2 rebounds. The Heat were still one point behind the Mavericks at 30:31.

Cuban looked at the young general with a somewhat cold look. If they played normally, the Mavericks would still have a chance to win, right?
At the beginning of the second quarter, at the insistence of Mo Wen, the Heat activated the faster Dolyak and began to speed up the tempo. The Mavericks were not prepared and were first broken up by the cavalry charge. They were easily scored in two consecutive rounds and were unconsciously led by the Heat to play a fast break.

By the time the young general called for a timeout, the score difference had widened to 8 points.

When the Mavericks calmed down and began to intentionally control the rhythm, Mo Wen, Rasul and Doleac were replaced by Payton, O'Neal and Finley, and they began to slow down and grind the field.

Seeing the opportunity, Terry and Harris immediately increased their speed, hoping to punish these old guys with the mobility of the young people.

However, Finley and Payton showed their strength on the offensive end, taking advantage of Wade's rush to grab the ball, seizing the few open opportunities and making consecutive hits.

Watching Finley, whom he had pardoned, making two consecutive three-pointers in his own stadium to help the Heat maintain the score difference while receiving the Mavericks' salary, Cuban felt as absurd as if he had been hit on the back of the head by a boomerang.

"Look at Cuban's expression. I bet the boos from the fans were not for Finley, but for him. Maybe he is a good boss, but not a great boss."

Mark Jackson made this comment in the ABC studio.

Finley's emotions at the moment were also quite complicated. He had no intention of celebrating after scoring two consecutive goals. Except for observing his teammates and shooting, he never looked up again.

Payton couldn't stand it and urged Finley on while he was shooting free throws:

"I really doubt whether you are a Ni Ge or not. You are already divorced, why do you still care about their thoughts? Give me your middle finger. We want to show our love to them in person. Look, my cousins, look at how well I am doing now!"

Finley, with an old farmer's face, patted Payton's arm to signal him to stop talking.

After all, he was the former leader of the Mavericks. Although he was abandoned in the end, it was far from the point of falling out.

Before the finals began, Cuban specially invited his parents to watch the game, but his parents felt embarrassed and refused.

Being ruthless is the strongest expression of his heart.

Fat Snail poked Mo Wen off the court.

"Will you show mercy when you return to Miami next time?"

Mo Wen raised his eyebrows.

"Do I look like a good person to you?"

"I think you are quite polite?" Fat Snail looked at Mo Wen stupidly.

“The IRS (U.S. Internal Revenue Service) will knock on your door, too.”

At the end of the first half, the Heat only maintained a 5-point lead.

The fans on the sidelines are very excited, this is the most promising game!
With the help of an invisible big hand, Jason Terry showed a performance that was not inferior to Wade.

Nowitzki, who had been "lost" before, also showed signs of recovery in this game. Haslem has already committed 3 fouls, and the pressure on Nowitzki will be even smaller in the second half.

The Mavericks' problem is still on the defensive end. They are facing either last year's championship members or retired veterans from other teams, who basically have unique skills.

It's a bit difficult for this group of role players to attack the enemy, but they are very familiar with following Wade and Mo Wen to expand the wound.

The young general had no expression on his face and still had a stern look on his face.

He had been observing Mo Wen and found that he was in good condition. In the first half, Mo did not exert much effort and only scored 13 points and 4 assists. He was afraid that there would be a big problem in the second half.

Most of the Mavericks players had similar thoughts. They didn't dare to celebrate loudly after scoring a good goal in the first half, for fear of angering this guy.

Danzi seems to have retired, but also seems not to have retired.

In the second half, Mo Wen took over Wade's ball-holding game for half a quarter, and worked with the sensitive Mavericks players to demonstrate how to break a double-team.

The perfect way to break a double-team is not to quickly pass the ball to a teammate who can see it, but to get the ball to the most suitable person based on the established tactical positioning and the positioning, shooting and passing habits of teammates.

This theory was included in many basketball textbooks in the last century, but as people became more aware of the limitations of players' abilities, it was gradually no longer mentioned, because the theory was too theoretical. It not only placed extremely high demands on the player with the ball, but also required other team members to have sufficient discipline and basketball IQ.

Unfortunately, the Heat have just this condition.

Brave Niu Niu successfully limited Mo Wen's scoring, but the gap between the two teams was visibly widened. The biggest purpose of the young general calling two timeouts might be to help Mo Wen rest.

Hundreds of kilometers away, Spurs fans showed ferocious smiles on their faces.

Yes, that’s right, everyone must die!

Previously, Mo Wen broke the record for assists in the Finals at home in San Antonio, and the Spurs fans were often ridiculed by fans of the other two teams in Texas.

This year it’s the Mavericks who are on the court, and guess what, even the way they get beaten is the same!

Wade, who scored 20 points in the first half, just got a little excited when the Mavericks were about to be defeated.

I have seen people who bully the weak and fear the strong, but I have never seen people who bully the strong and fear the weak.

Cuban covered his face on the sidelines and began to fall into the thinking of a paying player again.

How can he trade for Mo Wen without trading Nowitzki, and how much luxury tax will he have to pay?

If I can't get Mo Wen, who can restrict him?

Referee Donaghy on the sidelines had less energy and more madness in his whistle.

Hey, you little bastard, you bought the opposite of me, right?

It would be fine if you didn't bet on yourself to win, but why did you bet on 4:0?

When Donaghy made consecutive shots and sent Haslem off for three fouls in a single quarter, the Mavericks had been left with a 16-point lead and were on the verge of giving up.

It's numb. Even the whistle is numb.

Thanks to Donaghy's unremitting efforts, the Mavericks finally saw hope in the second half of the fourth quarter.

Stern was a little speechless. You were asked to be the invisible hand, not the black hand. The camera even gave you a close-up and you were still being stubborn. What's wrong with you?

The chairman of the referee guild who was present at the scene also frowned. The credibility of the referees belongs to everyone. From the cash you earned from this library, do you really regard the guild as your home?

However, the union chairman did not interfere with Donaghy openly. Family members cannot question family members. He just hinted to another linesman during the commercial break, and also tried to find problems with the Mavericks at the same time to play hedging.

Anyway, as long as everyone suffers from injustice, there is no bias, at most it is stupidity.

As for whether or not he will be scolded, isn’t being scolded the main job of the referee?
Commercial leagues will definitely be influenced by business, and regional competitions will also be constrained by regions. Unless everything is mechanized and digitized, it will be difficult to have absolute fairness.

Mo Wen knew very well who Donaghy was. Although he was angry, he had no relevant evidence and it was not easy for him to directly expose anything.

"A month ago, I attended a dinner for the Governor of California and met a guy named Jeff who claimed to be a tax collector from Texas. Do you know him, Shaq?"

When returning to defend Donaji, Mo Wen suddenly said this.

"what?"

O'Neal is a bit confusing.

But Donaghy, who was stared at by Mo Wen, heard the threat in the sentence.

He wanted to brag, but he didn't dare to, because he really knew a tax officer named Jeff. MD, you are so cruel.

He glared at Mo Wen's back, and when Mo Wen turned around, he quickly looked away.

The income from gambling also has to be taxed in his personal name. If he is really audited, his means of covering up will not be enough.

Don’t talk about procedures and rules, as they are for people outside the circle. In a society where relationships are important, everything is the same. Old Huo has to stand up when it is time.

The Mavericks players who "returned from the dead" were originally excited and thought that the referee would send them to the end regardless of the consequences, but they didn't know why the penalty standards suddenly returned to normal.

No, you've been bragging for a long time just to drag us up and get beaten?
Looking at O'Neal, Wade and Mo Wen who were angry in front of them, why did they suddenly feel so disgusted and nauseous after the food that the referee just fed into their mouths?

"O'Neal received the ball in the low post and pushed it hard. Hey, it's like a mountain of pressure. Dampier can't handle it at all!"

"Wade broke through again, and Nowitzki couldn't hold him back. He jumped up on one leg and smashed the ball with all his might. This shot was really inspiring. I guess Wade's anger for the two violations he was called for just now was all because of this!"

"Rasul is covering for Mo Wen. There's no one in front of Mo Wen. Wade is passing the ball. Look at this ball... Hey, be careful of Diop's retreat—whoa, it goes in! Mo Wen turned in the air and dunked the ball like a flying flower. This ball is really magical!"

Coach Zhang, who had been holding his breath and muttering about the poor refereeing standards today, gradually raised his voice as the Heat stars responded one by one.

On the other hand, the Mavericks players were beaten back to their original form.

They persevered to the end today, but the price was another beating?
Is the referee teaming up with the Heat to make fun of them?
At the end of the game, the Heat won the Mavericks by 116 points 103:13.

莫闻拿到23分14助攻6篮板3抢断的常规数据；韦德则砍下最高分36分5助攻5篮板1抢断1盖帽，没有划水的奥胖只得到了划水的数据17分10篮板2盖帽。

On the Mavericks side, Jason Terry was the team's leading scorer for a second consecutive year, scoring 31 points and 6 rebounds, while the rejuvenated Nowitzki made 21 of 8 shots, only one three-pointer, and barely got 30 points and 9 rebounds by relying on free throws. Only the sixth man Stackhouse scored in double digits with 11 points, and the rest only got sporadic single-digit points.

After losing three games in a row, from all-out attack to focused attack, and then to focused defense, Chang Gong was only one step away from the final battle process.

Full retreat.

The situation of Game 4 of the Finals also perfectly fits these four words.

The rookie who had just grown up had already accepted his failure.

The intensity of resistance in the game is about half-hearted.

After halftime, facing a 20-point deficit, the Mavericks set their sights on 2007.

Be happy, just be happy. When Mo Wen is gone next year, we’ll see how you old guys can compete with us!
Mo Wen, just wait and see who can help you when you return to the bad team!
Three months in the east, three months in the west, don’t look down on the young and the poor!
The Heat players did not think about the future, but began to reminisce about the past.

The joy of winning consecutive championships made many players see the revolving lantern of their own lives.

The BGM of "My life is like walking on thin ice" echoed in their minds, and they almost cried because of themselves.

Payton and Walker on the court couldn't stop laughing despite the murderous gazes of the Mavericks fans.

Especially Walker, no matter who scores the goal, even if it is the Mavericks, he can't wait to do his hip-twisting dance. Not to mention, the comedy effect of breaking the defense is really first-class.

Finley, who returned to his old place, did not play in the second half. He just sat on the sidelines, staring blankly at the Mavericks logo in the midfield, his eyes wet.

The old players of the Heat who won the championship last year were relatively calm at this moment. Only Wade couldn't help shaking his legs and counting the time.

No one laughed at him, as everyone knew that he missed the final excitement last year due to injury.

In a good mood, Mo Wen made a rare "return" to the role of assistant coach for the Heat. He discussed with Davis and Spoelstra, who was promoted from the position of video analyst, what tactics the Heat could play next year.

To be honest, Mo Wen was not optimistic about the Heat after he left.

With the great goal of winning three consecutive championships, the Heat players will not be directly dragged down and lose their energy by the "one championship satisfaction syndrome" as in history.

If they want to continue to compete for the championship, it depends on whether Riley can continue his god-level reinforcements.

He couldn't think of anyone in the alliance who could replace him, not to mention that he was not the only one leaving.

Rasul's contract has expired, and Mourning has decided to retire after winning two championships. Although he has won two championships, Doleac wants a higher tactical position.

Counting on my fingers, from the outside to the inside, the Heat will definitely face a big cut next season.

Although as long as O'Neal and Wade can stay healthy, the Heat will definitely have no problem maintaining their competitiveness, but Riley is here...

The veterans with championship experience can barely be packaged as high-quality assets, and coupled with the fact that the draft picks are not overdrawn, the Heat are not without any chips.

It still depends on whether Riley's connections are strong enough when the Heat's "dynasty dream" is being sniped by the entire league.

As the game was coming to an end, most of the fans in the American Airlines Center had left.

Those who stayed were only there to watch the final chapter of this team that was said to be the strongest in history.

In G4, the Heat played quite well as a team. As the Mavericks surrendered early, basically everyone got a certain amount of playing time. A rare 7 players on the team scored in double digits. Payton, who was mocked by Lakers fans two years ago as an old guy who couldn't move his legs, also scored 11 points by shooting.

Payton on the bench stood up straighter than ever before: "I wonder who dares to say that I won the championship by cheating!"

O'Neal grinned and said disdainfully: "Isn't it?"

"Of course not, I only scored 2 points less than you. 'Shaq looked exhausted in Game 4 of the Finals, veteran Payton showed off his strength and scored 11 points to ignite the whole team'. Isn't this a good headline? When I get home I'll find a tabloid and ask them to write a report like this for me!" Payton shook his head, as if he was back to the foul-mouthed and demanding-a-punch look he had 10 years ago when he faced Dan Zi.

"Listen, if you die one day, I will definitely buy your face at a high price and make it into gloves. They will definitely be the toughest and most wear-resistant gloves in the world!" O'Neal said as he tried to pull Payton's face.

“Move aside, move aside. This face of mine will be used for a photo with the championship trophy. Keep your dirty hands away. If you want to interact with your idol, I can give you an autograph later… Um, ahhh…”

Without waiting for Payton to finish, O'Neal grabbed Payton's face forcefully, like he was pinching a hamburger.

"What else can you say with your mouth besides pretentiousness and trash talking?"

"They would also say that the little sardine looks like the tin of a shark... ahwu... taa ...

As soon as O'Neal slapped his hands together, Payton's slightly fat round face immediately turned into a snake-like face.

"Fuck it, go to hell, Ni Ge'er!"

drop--

The red light comes on and the race is over.

The Heat players swarmed to the center of the court. After a year of hard work, they finally reaped the most generous rewards at this moment.

In the NBA's history books, the Heat's logo also jumped forward one space.

In the commentary room of CCTV, Coach Zhang's familiar voice, "Champions! Champions again! Champions again!", rang out again.

Sun Zhengping also sighed: "Three consecutive individual championships, I can't believe Mo Wen has won three consecutive championships! You have to admit that there are geniuses in this world."

……

In the routine hug after the game, the Mavericks players did not show too much reluctance, but instead had a sense of relief that they were finally free.

"You have done very well, keep up the good work next year." Mo Wen did not hesitate to praise at this time. It was indeed not easy for the Mavericks to get to this point. The Heat won the championship with pure strength, so it was not hypocritical to comfort and praise them.

"Congratulations." Jason Terry forced a smile with difficulty - finally he didn't have to face this face.

He had a superstar performance in this series, but he doesn't want to recall it at all now.

Nowitzki has the saddest look among all the Mavericks players.

His performance was seriously off-base throughout the series, and he bears much of the blame for the Mavericks' loss.

However, this is not entirely a bad thing. Historically, a large part of the Mavericks' losses this year were blamed on the referees and the "Wade fall". The problems shown by Nowitzki did not receive much attention and improvement. It was not until the Warriors' black eighth round defeat next year that Nowitzki truly woke up and began to evolve.

If Nowitzki had realized his shortcomings earlier, this year's failure would have been worth a fortune.

Finley held his former little brother and comforted him for a long time, until he started crying first.

He still won the championship at the American Airlines Center, but the uniforms were no longer in the Mavericks' colors.

Nothing is more sad and ridiculous than this in life.

In the end, it was Cuban who came over to comfort Finley.

Finley's contract with the Heat is only for two years, and will end next year in 07. However, after Finley was amnestied by the Mavericks, his contract will be valid until 08, and the execution amount is as high as 3500 million!
Relying on this relationship, and seeing that Finley is still averaging 10+ points per game, Cuban said that he can return to the Mavericks after his contract expires. According to the current rules, Cuban can still provide Finley with two salaries!
Cuban, who accepted the defeat with all his heart, did not lose his temper. He asked the home staff to fully cooperate with the officials and Heat staff to prepare for the final award ceremony.

When everything was ready, the Heat players put on championship T-shirts, and the old man who flew from New York came to the stage with the O'Brien Cup.

"Before we announce the champions, let us thank the Dallas Mavericks for giving us a great Finals..."

"Now, I declare the champion of the 2005-2006 season to be the Miami Heat!"

Allison, who had come down from the VIP seat a long time ago, walked forward with ease - raised his glass - and smiled. He finally felt Alexander's happiness.

After Arison, everyone tacitly gave the trophy to Wade first.

Looking at the clean and new O'Brien Cup, Wade, who was standing in the C position as he wished, was already in tears. It turns out that the trophy in his hand is so beautiful!

After a fetishistic French kiss, Wade lifted the trophy, then completed what he had wanted to do last year, holding the trophy and facing the camera with one hand giving a thumbs up and the other making a "Yeah" sign!
Mo Wen, who was the second to get the trophy, just raised it symbolically and cooperated with the photographer with a smile designed by the makeup artist. Then, like Wade, he made an OK gesture (3) to the camera and passed the trophy on.

There’s nothing to be surprised about. The first time is strange, the second time is familiar, and the third and fourth times are like brothers and sisters, and we are all old friends.

The next player to receive the trophy, O'Neal, also pretended to be rich.

He held the trophy in one hand and held the other hand loosely, as if he was about to be unable to hold the trophy in his arms.

After giving away the trophy, he did not forget to wave his five fingers in front of the camera.

It seemed like he was bragging to everyone, but also seemed like he was hinting at something.

Unfortunately, 8 had already turned off the TV after halftime.

As long as I don't pay attention to you, you can't be angry with me
——TMD!

The happiest people on the court were Payton and his veterans who took a pay cut to join the team for the championship.

Riley even gave his celebration time and shots to these old guys.

Laugh as much as you can.

Let those veterans who are still hesitating see the Heat's ability to make their dreams come true.

last of the last.

The only individual honor award in the playoffs - the "FMVP Scratch-Off" was also given to Stern.

There is no suspense.

Even in the just-concluded G4, Mo Wen played very poorly and only got 12 points and 11 assists.

But with that game of 62 points and 13 assists, it was impossible for anyone to compete with him.

Wade seems to be the main attacker more often, and his average of 28 points per game is not bad, but Mo Wen's average score is a terrifying 36 points.

Averaging 36 points and 12 assists per game, just like O'Neal who once won three consecutive championships, his statistics alone can kill all controversies, not to mention that he still has a pair of hooks on his feet.

The only thing that comforted Wade was that although he didn't get the trophy, there was still a media outlet that voted for him.

Thinking about how he could still get recognition from others despite having a terrifying 62 points, Wade suddenly felt that he was good enough again.

On the field, Mo Wen once again came to the interview microphone holding the trophy.

"Hey everyone, long time no see. Who would have thought it's me again!"

"Once again, I want to thank my teammates and coaches for pushing me here again. I really want to be pushed by them again, even though I don't lack it."

"I don't know what everyone thinks of this trophy of mine. Is it luck, luck, or luck?"

"I'll tell you a secret. Through the ball of this trophy, I can see your inner emotions. Let me see your jealousy, jealousy, and jealousy again! So much jealousy..."

"Oh? You want to kill me, who is it? Mr. Cuban! You can't do this!"

(Cuban spreads his hands)
"OK it was just a joke."

"You know, I'm a team player, so I don't have a lot of personal success to share with you."

"I know some people will say that you have 62 points, how can you say I am a team player, but honestly, every point I scored has the efforts of my teammates behind me."

"They are the best teammates, we are the best team, if you want to be as successful as me, come to the Heat!"

"Also, Mr. Riley, don't forget my advertising fee."

(Riley spreads his hands)
"This trophy is more of a full stop to my career with the Heat than an honor. I am very happy and I have no regrets about it. This is the perfect ending."

"People who have passed by, please don't be sad about my departure, because if I don't leave, your team won't survive!"

Many Mavericks fans who did not leave were amused by Mo Wen's remarks.

After a talk show-like acceptance speech, the project in the spotlight came to an end.

Back in the locker room, there was platinum-colored foam mixed with unbridled screams.

The joy of winning consecutive championships is no less than winning the championship for the first time.

The pressure of the year was released at this moment. Even Finley, who had been in a low mood before, picked up the bottle and started to wander around.

Image doesn't matter at this point.

But people get tired sometimes.

When all the champagne they brought was almost finished, everyone began to taste the little remaining wine carefully.

"Is it about to end?" Looking at the reporters who were gradually dispersing, Wade drank half a bottle but his eyes were still a little hazy.

"Yeah. Go wash your face. You may have to attend a press conference later."

"Go to hell, I've said everything I need to say. Now I just want to...hiccup...enjoy the present moment." Wade shook his head nonchalantly.

Mo Wen didn't say anything. He had almost the same mentality last time.

"Mo." Wade turned his head and stretched out his hand. "Let me see it again."

Mo Wen looked around and threw the FMVP trophy next to him to Wade.

"Hey, you guy, this is a trophy!" Wade yelled.

"Yeah, it's just a trophy." Mo Wen tilted his head. "If you want it, I'll give it to you... I'll give it to Zaire as a toy."

This trophy really doesn’t have any special meaning to Mo Wen.

The so-called honorary trophy is like a scheming green tea bitch.

Before you get it, you are willing to give everything for it, but after you get it, you find that it is nothing special.

Wade stared at the trophy in a daze. The reflection of the ball on it made his cheeks look even rounder.

"Tsk, I don't want yours. I'll have one next year, too, one of my own!"

After saying that, he threw the trophy back into Mo Wen's arms.

"Really not?"

"No!" Wade's answer was very firm, with a spirit of achieving fame and success immediately.

Mo Wen smiled and put the trophy into his bag.

"Don't regret it."

"Regret shit!"

"Let me tell you something. This trophy is made of gold, 24K pure gold!" Mo Wen smiled and zipped up his zipper without giving Wade a chance to regret.

"you you you……!"

"Regret it?"

"roll roll roll!"
