Chapter 500 [Champion's Speech!] Yes we can! 】

The Suns didn't have a party in Detroit that night to celebrate the victory, and flew straight back to Phoenix.

In the previous two games, Pistons fans had a very unfriendly attitude towards the Suns, and when Guo Xu left the court in the third game, some fans even poured drinks on him, which caused a bad reaction.

The last time the Pistons won the championship in 1990, eight people were killed in a celebratory parade in Detroit, six were hit by a car, one fell off a roof and died, and one was shot to death, and criminals took advantage of the chaos to rob the city......

For this reason, the Detroit gang was once called a "mob", and the Suns players were not willing to bet on the quality of fans in order to stay an extra night. Since you can't have fun, it's better to go home directly.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Pistons fans have never been able to wash away their bad reputation, and the Auburn Hills Palace Battle is the best example.

After returning to Phoenix, everyone had a dinner to celebrate, and then waited at home for the holiday to wait for the notice to participate in the championship parade.

It was only three days before the championship parade was decided, not because the management was too incompetent, but because of the special geographical location of Phoenix. The other teams marched during the day, and the Suns set it for the evening, which is the only one in the NBA.

This arrangement was decided after discussion and communication among many parties, and although more police officers were needed to assist in the march at night, at least there was no need for medical personnel to go out. What if you were at an event during the day, with a large crowd of fans coming together and cheering in the 40-degree heat? How many people suffer from heat stroke?

What is more difficult to control than heat stroke is the emotions of the fans, and people who go out on a hot day are easily irritable, and it will be bad if they clash over trivial matters such as crowding.

In short, the celebration of the parade must be done with virtue and safety first.

At night, there is a parade, the floats are equipped with lights, and the street lights are also fully turned on on the way, so that fans can see the players clearly, applaud and interact with them. The route of the parade was also discussed many times, and the streets were chosen to be wide to avoid accidents.

Guo Xu brought his "family" to participate in the championship parade for the first time, and Meghan enjoyed the applause of the fans on the float with him, and the whole person was a little fluttery, as if she had become a superstar, at least a star wife.

When she was in Los Angeles, Megan was a little envious of Vanessa's exposure, and now she relies on a popular movie and Guo Xu's girlfriend identity, and her popularity has far surpassed Vanessa.

Megan likes Guo Xu more and more, and she has identified him in this life. She feels that her man is a hero, superhuman, a genius, who can fulfill all her fantasies.

When she was a child, after watching romance movies, she often fantasized that her future boyfriend would be a big star, a big hero in the world, Guo Xu's current fame and status are much stronger than she thought back then.

Looking at the entire United States, there are not many people who are more famous than Guo Xu. As long as Meghan follows him, she is very beautiful and will be envied by countless people, if you use a Chinese idiom to describe it, the most suitable is...... Bully people by flaunting one's powerful connections?

Phoenix isn't as geographically located as Los Angeles, but it's the fifth-most populous city in the country, and with a rough estimate of a million people taking part in the parade, it's been a long time since the city has been so lively.

Surrounded by desert, this desert-encompassing city has a unique charm for attracting so many people to settle down, and this year it was ranked as the third safest city in the United States after San Diego and San Antonio. Probably because there are a large number of Catholics, Protestants, Mormons, or because the weather is too hot, people are reluctant to go out to sin for fear of being dried by the sun.

In short, the process of the parade was very smooth, and the order of the scene was well maintained.

After the march, the Suns held a recognition rally at Arizona State University football stadium, which was watched by about 50,000 fans, mostly young people. The coaches and players appeared on the stage one by one, and under the questions of the host, they said a few words of thoughts to the fans on the temporary stage in the field.

The person the young players are most grateful to is Guo Xu, and Haslem even made public the fact that his girlfriend joined Guo Xu's catering company. "Jason is the best leader, a good friend, he's not very old, but he's our big brother with the Suns."

Diop said: "I'm so happy. The Suns are the best team, my teammates and coaches helped me settle in very quickly, and my offense is still terrible but they don't laugh at me, they just praise me defensively. ”

Rookie Josh Howard laughed at both rows of teeth. "I joined the best team in the league and won a championship, and I feel like the luckiest guy I am."

The next veteran to come out on the pitch is Kukoc, who has reversed that claim. "Josh said he's the luckiest, I don't believe it, but I'm a player with four championship rings, and I've worked with two of the NBA's greatest outside players. Yes, I think Jason will definitely be able to match Jordan in the future. ”

Guo Xu appeared in the finale, made a big show, and delivered a large speech, summarizing his journey after joining the Suns.

The year before last, the Suns began to rebuild, Marbury and Hardaway left, and many people said that the Suns became a bad team, predicting that the Suns would not make the playoffs for a long time, and they were wrong. Yes, we can do it.

When an incompetent coach messed up the team at the start of the season and left fans in despair, Mike D'Antoni and a group of brilliant youngsters stepped up and the Suns used run-and-gun tactics to get out of the way and become the powerhouse of the West. Yes, we can do it.

When the rookies were playing in the playoffs for the first time, we made it to the Western Conference Finals without experience, and we were one step away from the championship. Together, we all witnessed a successful and great rebuild for the Suns. Yes, we can do it.

When the Lakers formed F4, the Timberwolves formed a three-headed monster, and Dallas formed a five-star Mavericks in the summer of 2003, experts predicted a decline in our record. We showed everyone that we can succeed. Yes, we can do it.

The Suns had a long 82-game regular season with the best record, but after losing two games to the Timberwolves in the playoffs, we were met with numerous doubts. They questioned our youth and said we couldn't beat the veterans. As a result, we once again proved ourselves with our strength, and all three-headed monsters are floating clouds. Yes, we can do it.

Now, I just want to tell everyone that this is our moment, this is our time, and the next dynasty team in the NBA will definitely be the Suns, and when we encounter ridicule and doubt, when someone says we can't do it, we respond to them with this eternal creed — yes, we can do it!

Thank you to everyone who supports the Suns, and may God bless you all. Now, people say, can we successfully defend our title next year?

The audience was in high spirits and chanted together: "Yes, we can do it." ”

The members of the coaching staff and teammates were shocked, and they felt that their performance was too poor when they just said their feelings.

When a few simple words shimmered, everyone present felt the majestic power. Guo Xu was able to lead so many people to shout slogans together, what kind of oratory talent is this?

Jerry Colangelo, who is preparing to run for the position of general manager of the U.S. national team, and his son Brian Colangelo are both staring at each other with their mouths wide open.

Brian and the other audience voices quieted down, and sighed: "What else is there that Jason won't do?" It's brainwashing. ”

Jerry nodded in agreement: "I think he should run for president when he retires." ”
