Chapter 984: We Won the Championship Before You Came
"Unanimous? It's so fake! And now the Pelicans are about to be eliminated! This unanimous MVP is not worthy of the name! Statements from Jokic fans.
"It's just 1-2 behind, and it's not eliminated, and the two games that we lost, everyone knows that the Pelicans are purely unlucky!"
"yes, and the MVP is judging the regular season, is there anything wrong with that?"
"Who is this man? Why did you suddenly run out and sing the opposite? It won't be Durant S again, right? β
"It's very similar, you look at the format exactly the same, fans of Pelicans so-and-so player, didn't the godfather fans really hammer before?"
"@ηΊ¦εΊε₯η²δΈ, it's out!"
"Don't worry, I have a hunch that the Pelicans will win the next game! Don will prove his MVP prowess! β
β¦β¦
The Warriors' locker room.
The players who had just finished training were resting inside.
Green saw Durant holding his phone and pressing it frantically, and poked his head out curiously.
When he saw that Durant was holding a trumpet and outputting it wildly on social media, he couldn't help frowning slightly.
Although he has a big mouth and plays dirty, his personality is the kind of positive and tough type, and Durant's way of using trumpets makes him a little ashamed.
"Kevin, what do we have to say openly in front of the media, that's our Warriors' style."
Green couldn't hold back and spoke.
In addition to splashing, another important element of the Warriors' rise over the past few years is the team culture.
During the turbulent years, the Warriors were an undisciplined, muddy team.
But it was with Splash and Green that a new team culture was re-established.
What Green is talking about is a very important part of their culture.
Durant glanced at Green, ignored it, and continued to log in with another trumpet.
Green's brow furrowed even deeper, even a little angry.
Durant didn't listen to him at all!
To say that after Durant came to the Warriors, he Green did his best to help integrate in, and constantly encouraged Durant to have courage against Tang Tian.
But I didn't expect Durant to react like this!
But this was the locker room, and he couldn't say anything, so he turned around and sorted out his things.
The players all left the arena one after another after showering, and Durant was still there to log in to the trumpet output with his mobile phone, and he didn't know how many trumpets it was.
Green couldn't stand it anymore.
Durant really didn't take what he said seriously at all!
"Kevin, we won the championship before you even came, so take me for it, it's the championship gene."
Green spoke.
The Warriors have won a championship, but Durant has not.
Durant put down his phone at this time and looked at Green with some unhappiness.
The two men stared at each other for a moment.
Durant put away his phone, put his bag on his back and left the locker room directly.
Grimm almost banged on the door angrily.
Durant's personality is really too weird, and the splash he knows is not the same kind of person at all.
But he didn't care about it after he got angry.
They are also together because they want to win the championship, and they are not the same teammates who grow together like Splash.
There is a lot of talk on social media, and the fourth game between the Pelicans and the Warriors is also in the spotlight.
This game will even directly determine the trend of the entire series.
If the Pelicans pull one back, the 2-2 deficit would be equivalent to a return to the starting line, but if the Warriors continue to win, then 3-1 will basically advance.
So this one will be crucial.
The next day, the fourth game between the two sides officially kicked off at the Oracle Arena.
The team led by a large score, and the enthusiasm of fans in the Bay Area was high, not only the attendance in the stadium was full, but also the large LED screen broadcast outside the stadium was crowded.
It was a shame for them to be swept away last year, and they must pay for it this year.
In the arena, Warriors big owner Joe Lacob and several investors were on hand to help.
The next game will be back in New Orleans, which will also be crucial for the Warriors.
There is even a person Tang Tian knows by their side, Agary Ranadave.
Rana Dave's dad was originally a small owner of the Warriors, and later formed a consortium to buy the Kings, but it can be seen that she is still a fan of the Warriors.
When the players entered, she was sitting in the front row and stretched out her hand to greet Tang Tian.
In New York, she had a relationship with Tang Tian at Olson's private estate, and she also tried to recruit Tang Tian to play for the Warriors.
Unexpectedly, time has passed, and the two met in different capacities at Oracle Arena.
The world is sometimes wonderful.
Tang Tian also said hello politely, but his eyes quickly focused on the arena.
The Pelicans must win tonight's game.
And he's got a lot of confidence, and the Pelicans were in good shape for this morning's training session.
The two consecutive defeats did not make them lose confidence, but only made them more motivated.
After the pre-game warm-up and before the opening ceremony, the MVP was presented on the spot.
Originally, it was best to receive this kind of grand prize at home, but Tang Tian chose to do it away from home, and he also wanted to use it to encourage the team.
Before Tetum handed the MVP trophy to Tang Tian, he deliberately emphasized that Tang Tian was the first player in NBA history to be unanimously elected.
The audience burst into cheers and applause.
Although they are opponents, Tang Tian is now the first person in the alliance, and the fact that he was unanimously elected is worthy of their attitude.
Tang Tian smiled and took the trophy from Tytum's hand, and took the initiative to hug Tytum.
"Thanks for the help."
While hugging, Tang Tian whispered to Tatum.
The NBA awards, because of Xiao Hua's ouster, are not unified to the post-season as in history, but are still presented during the playoffs as before.
The timing of this award is not completely fixed, in other words, it is completely determined by the Alliance.
This year's MVP award was presented a week earlier than last year, and Tang Tian naturally understood the reason.
This is using off-court factors to the Pelicans' advantage.
Tetum will not use the referee to manipulate the game like Xiao Hua, but his behavior has shown that he supports Tang Tian.
After all, it was Tang Tianfa who tripped Xiao Hua and brought him to office.
Tetum looked at Tang Tian with a smile and didn't speak, but his eyes already said everything.
After receiving the trophy, Tang Tian delivered his acceptance speech.
"Thank you to every media reporter who voted for me, I thought I would win the MVP, but I didn't think I would be unanimously elected, it was an incredible honor for me, and it was also the greatest encouragement and affirmation for me.
Thank you to all the Pelicans and basketball fans who are making this sport special.
I would also like to thank LeBron, Kawhey, Russell, Kevin, Stephen, James, each of them, because of them, the NBA will become more and more exciting.
Of course, I would like to thank my wife Elizabeth Olsen for her unconditional support, who raised my two children on her own and allowed me to devote myself to the game, and I love her more than anything else. β
