The edge of basketball is compelling

Chapter 346 346 Championship Ring, Championship Banner!
"Oh~"

Faced with ESPN's questioning, Zhou Si just responded with a one-word status.

It's useless to say more now, the game still depends on fighting.

……

On November 11st, the curtain of the NBA1~2015 regular season finally kicked off.

There are a total of 4 games on this day, the Cavaliers vs. Bulls in the East, Celtics vs. Nets, Warriors vs. Rockets in the West, and Trail Blazers vs. Pelicans.

It can be said that every scene is a battle of focus!
Xiao Hua, this is planning to use boos to attract the attention of the audience from the beginning of the season.

In Zhou Si's view, wouldn't it be better for the Cavaliers to fight against them in the opening game to create a rivalry and a boo head for revenge?
Then after thinking about it for a while, Zhou Si understood that today they were going to receive the championship ring and raise the championship banner at home. Xiao Hua was probably taking care of James' mood.

James has only won a championship for so many years, and Zhou Si has caught up with him in two seasons...

However, the Pelicans are also considered a good opponent.

Last year's regular season record was third in the Western Conference, and the playoffs also reached the semifinals. The dark horse is full of fineness.

In fact, the rise of the Pelicans is not too unreasonable.

Last season, the Pelicans hired the Warriors' chief assistant, Gentry. Gentry's fast offensive and defensive system helped the Pelicans to a higher level.

Coupled with the outburst of thick eyebrows and the support of teammates after handing over the inside line protection to Noel, it is not so incredible when you think about it.

While thick eyebrows are still gaining weight this summer, he promises to develop three-point range.

With a low post and three-point eyebrows, to be honest, such a brand new Pelican Zhou Si is also quite looking forward to.

……

Before the game, in the Blazers locker room, Zhou Si walked over and rubbed his eldest nephew's head!
He's a little nervous today.

After all, today is his NBA debut!

"Brother, I'm always nervous, what are you doing?!"

Zhou Si thought about his mood during the first NBA game, and said to Guo Ailun:
"Relax, it's all about me."

Call ~
Listening to Zhou Si's words, the eldest nephew let out a sigh of relief.

At this time, a big hand pressed on his shoulder.

I saw the handsome blond Leonard also said:

"Don't worry, I'll help you with the pick-and-roll when the time comes! You'll have a blast!
By the way, I have a three-point basket, remember to find me when the time comes to score the ball! "

"Oh my god, you are such a good person!"

Guo Ailun said with some emotion.

"Don't worry, we will help you too!"

The others also roared.

Reed on the side glanced at this side and went about his own business, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

……

With the end of the warm-up, all the lights in the stadium are turned off!

The lights were turned on again, focusing on the extremely dazzling O'Brien Cup at the middle circle of the court from all directions!
The eyes of the fans are also attracted by the gold cup!
In addition to the O'Brien Cup, there are many championship rings on the award table.

At this time, a close-up of the championship ring was shown on the big screen at the right time.

"Wow~"

The audience burst into amazement!
Really handsome!

The ring is mainly red and black, which is also the home color of the Blazers.

The front of the ring is inlaid with the Trail Blazers team logo made of rubies and obsidian, and the blank places are filled with broken diamonds!
Under the illumination of the light, the broken diamonds shine abnormally, obviously the cut is very good, and the value is very high!
A lot of money, willful!
"World" is engraved on the top of the ring face, "Champion" is engraved in the middle and "2015" is engraved below.

The recipient's name is engraved on the left and "Portland Trail Blazers" on the right.

At this time, Zhou Si found that the expressions of McGrady and Reed were very special, their eyes were full of envy and a trace of regret.

They were all All-Stars in the league, but now they are still empty-handed.

O'Neal presided over the awards ceremony, and both league president Xiao Hua and Blazers owner Paul Allen came to the scene.

First, the president delivered a speech, and then presented the rings one by one!

When O'Neill hosted, he also cue Barkley:
"I wanted to leave this opportunity to Charles. I have too many rings to count. He may not have looked at it much."

The scene suddenly roared with laughter.

"Okay, without further ado, let's enter the ring awarding ceremony!"

"Mr. Paul Allen!"

The first to accept the championship ring was the owner Paul Allen, followed by the general manager of the Trail Blazers Orsi and other management!
Then there is the coaching staff led by coach Stotts and assistant Campbell.

Last but not least is the player!
The first player to receive the ring is the retired Billups!

Although it was the second time, this big heart was still very excited when he went to receive the ring.

At this time, Zhou Si walked over and patted Reed and McGrady on the shoulders.

He didn't speak, but Reed and McGrady understood Zhou Si's eyes.

Next year, rings, you will have them too!
Then the other players went on stage to receive the championship ring one by one!
Finally, amidst the most frenetic "MVP" chants, Zhous came to the center of the court and took the ring from Paul Allen.

"Congratulations, Zhou."

After Xiao Hua and Zhou Si shook hands, they spoke.

His tone was sincere.

After all, Zhou Si is now the thickest cash cow in the league.

"Thank you!"

Zhou Si smiled politely.

Although he knew that he was a pure businessman and liked to manipulate referees, as long as he didn't mess with himself, Zhou Si didn't need to know.

He's not some saint trying to purify the NBA.

Anyway, if Xiao Hua wants to cheat, he will cheat Americans more.

Zhou Si was the last to receive the championship ring, and the championship ring was awarded.

Everyone in the Blazers put on their rings and happily posed in various poses for the reporters to take pictures.

Such a small ring is the symbol of the NBA's highest honor, and how many superstars have devoted their lives to not being able to get one.

For example, Barkley in the TNT commentary booth.

On one side of the court, Pelicans players had mixed feelings.

So envious, so jealous!
We really want the ring too.

The thick eyebrow clenched his fist even more!

Last season, they stopped in the semifinals. This season, no matter what, they will go further to the Western Conference Finals, right?

And then reach the finals next season, it shouldn't be a big problem to win the championship within three years, right?

Then, under the signal of O'Neal, everyone stood up and faced the side of the arena.

There, the championship banner symbolizing the glory of the team will be hoisted!

As the black cloth on the flag was pulled away, the championship flag was also revealed.

Unlike the championship ring, the championship banner has a uniform style.

The upper part is the team logo of the Trail Blazers, the middle is the words 2014-2015, and the bottom is the logo of the NBA championship.

This is the second championship banner in the history of the Trail Blazers after 23 years!
There was a tsunami of cheers at the scene, and many old fans burst into tears!

The players of the Trail Blazers also held up their hands with championship rings, and watched the championship flag slowly rise to the height of the Rose Garden. At this time, the fighting spirit of the players on both sides reached the highest point!

Come on, have a good fight!
