Chapter 174 We Are the Champions

"Sister Hui, you really don't need a ticket?" June 2000, 6, perhaps the last game between the Spurs and the Pacers, will start tomorrow night, holding a few tickets provided by the Pacers Club Meng Xu had no place to settle the free tickets. Meng Xu didn’t know many people in the United States. Unlike China, the summer vacation began in early June in the United States, so many international students from China have returned to China one after another. up.I found He Hui on the phone, but unexpectedly, He Hui said that she also got the free tickets. I really don't know how she got the tickets. You must know that even the Spurs, not everyone has free tickets.

Although this game has not yet started, basically everyone has treated this game as the last game of the finals. Many players in the Spurs have already begun to invite their relatives and friends to watch this game Originally, Meng Xu got ten free tickets, but when he heard that Duncan was going to invite all the players and coaches of the Wake Forest Devil Deacon team, Meng Xu volunteered to contribute five free tickets. Wake Forest is also his former home team, and letting those former teammates come to watch him win the championship can also greatly satisfy his vanity.

It's just that there is no place to put the remaining five tickets. After thinking about it, Meng Xu took out his phone, dug out the phone book, and started calling a few people. After participating in this year's All-Star Rookie Game After that, Meng Xu established a deep friendship with several rookies of the same year, Wallis Zebiak, James Posey, Elton Brand, Andre Miller. They will talk to each other on the phone, and even every time they play away games, the home team will have to bleed once. Although they are all rookies this year, due to the high picks in the draft, those guys are all signed. The local tyrant of the contract.

In the end, Meng Xu successfully sent out these free tickets. Since Elton Brand had already gone on vacation, he couldn't come.For the sake of their status in the team next season, the others voluntarily gave up their vacations and stayed in the club to train hard.After Meng Xu promised to reimburse airfare and board and lodging, these guys rushed to Indiana. James Posey even brought his younger siblings, saying that he would bring them to meet the big scene. Gain knowledge.

On June 2000, 6, the fifth game of the finals between the Spurs and the Pacers was about to kick off in an hour. At this time, the entire Bankers Life Arena was already buzzing with people, but unlike the previous two games, this one There were not many Pacers fans in the game. After learning that the team was leading 15-1, countless Spurs fans came from San Antonio. They couldn't wait to see the Spurs defending the championship on the road and achieving consecutive championships.

Moreover, this game is likely to be the last game of this season's finals. Many entertainment stars who want to use the NBA stage to gain popularity will not miss such an opportunity. Today's Banker Life Arena, sitting in the front few The rows are almost all stars of the American entertainment industry and some celebrities from all walks of life who want to get close to NBA stars, and those real fans, facing the first few rows of seats that have been fired at sky-high prices, can only choose Buy those back seats.

As for this game, all the high-level NBA leaders headed by David Stern also attended the game, because the Spurs are likely to win the championship, the Larry O'Brien Cup has been brought to the scene, and at the same time Mr. Bill Russell, who was in charge of presenting the finals MVP awards, was also invited to the scene, accompanied by the main sponsors of the NBA, as well as a lot of accompanying staff, and even many NBA celebrities were invited to watch this event. games.

"I really envy this guy. He won the championship in his rookie season." Looking at Meng Xu who had already warmed up on the court, Wallis Zebiak, who had just taken his seat, showed an envious expression.

"Oh, I don't know, do we have a chance to win a championship?" Andre Miller on the side also shook. , the Nuggets, or the Timberwolves are all small clubs, and the owner is so tight-lipped. Raising a superstar is basically the limit. Even a team like the Cavaliers and the Nuggets is basically a famous star. would like to go to this place.

"Yes." For Andre Miller's emotion, Szczerbiak deeply sympathizes. Although the Timberwolves have a super giant like Garnett, due to the salary cap and the stingy boss, the current Timberwolves are facing Fate that may disintegrate at any time.

"Look at you, just like the old man, we are still young and have a lot of time. Even if we are old and can't play anymore, we can find a stronger team and get a ring." James Posey, who came from a few brothers and sisters, did not have as many ideas as Szczerbiak and Andre Miller. James Posey, who was born in a slum, now only wants to sit in the main position and win a big contract. , So completely changed the lives of brothers and sisters.

He shook his head and did not speak. In Szczerbiak's heart, if he could not rely on his own strength to win the championship, it would be better to maintain his dignity and not to be this so-called champion than to hold onto his thigh for a championship.

When the game started, the Bankers Life Arena was already occupied by Spurs fans. Every time the Spurs players scored a goal, they would burst into loud cheers. Meng Xu was fascinated by the cheers on the field. , but there is no way to know that several of my friends are looking at me enviously from the sidelines.

"Brother, that No. 5's playing posture is so handsome. I want to be like him in the future." When Meng Xu completed a very elegant pull-up jump shot, James Posey's younger brother pointed at Meng Xu on the field and shouted shouted.

"Handsome is good for a fart, I can prevent him from shitting." James Posey with black lines said with a little contempt. He has always been the idol of his younger siblings. This guy rebelled, and if he knew it, he wouldn't have brought them here.

"James, you seemed to have been beaten by Meng last time." Szczerbiak grinned and said with a smile.

"Wally, next season will be up to you." James Posey expressed his strong dissatisfaction with Sczerbiak's behavior of exposing himself in front of his younger siblings, and even slapped him Szczerbiak was given a twist.

In the end, the Spurs easily won the game 75-90 against the low-spirited Pacers. When the game ended, the Spurs fans stood up and sang that we are the champions. , The Spurs substitute players on the sidelines rushed into the court in an instant, surrounded all the players on the court, and were even thrown to the ground.

"Champions, champions, we are champions." The Spurs players who had already formed a circle on the field hand in hand, shouted loudly towards the top of the Bankers Life Arena.
