Versatile Point Forward

Chapter 402
On the night of winning the championship, the Blazers took a plane back to Portland from top to bottom.Holding the championship trophy, their fatigue seemed to have completely disappeared. The whole cabin of the private jet was filled with their laughter and laughter. McMillan, who had always been somewhat displeased with this kind of behavior, was also sitting in his seat, smiling. Seeing the players under his command having a great time, even the most stable veterans began to take out their mobile phones to take photos with the O'Brien Cup.

No wonder they are ecstatic about winning the championship. Although the Blazers also reached the finals last season, their living environment this year is worse than last year, especially in the finals when they have to face the Heat who have just formed the Big Three. I was more or less apprehensive.

However, to everyone's surprise, they beat the Heat 4-1. Although the process of the game was very difficult, the final big score was quite disparate. Everyone had to look at this young team with little action last summer with admiration.Yes, they are indeed a young team. If Roy and Oden were not injured, the starting lineup would be all young players under the age of 30, but they won the championship anyway.

Ye Feng didn't get involved in the playfulness of his teammates. After all, he just suffered a sprained ankle. This kind of injury can be big or small. Since the whole team wanted to fly back to Portland as soon as possible, McMillan didn't let Ye Feng Stay in Miami to diagnose the injury, but let him return to Portland with the team, and then go to the hospital designated by the team to see.The team doctor didn't raise any objections either. After seeing Ye Feng's performance after his reappearance, he deeply doubted whether this Asian boy was a robot.

Seeing the O'Brien Cup being passed around in the hands of his teammates, Ye Feng couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion.Before, he thought that reaching the finals with the team in the second season of his career was already a good achievement, but he did not expect to lead the team to win the championship as the core of the team and be crowned the MVP of the finals in the third season. It was a dream that couldn't be more real.You must know that this is not the NBA in ancient times, but even in the past it was a very good achievement.

In the first three seasons of his career, there are very few players who led the team to win the championship as the core of the team. The only thing Ye Feng can think of is the famous Lakers Kareem Abdul-Jabbar who was also called Lewis Alcindor back then. In 1969, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was selected by the Bucks with the first pick in the first round. He led the team to the finals in his rookie season. In the 1970-71 season, the team traded for the old and vigorous "Big O" Robertson, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar won the regular season MVP. And the scoring champion, led the team to win the championship and was crowned the finals MVP. The Bucks are also considered to be the fastest team to win the championship after joining the NBA. You must know that they established the team and joined the NBA a year before Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was selected.

Of course, even if he has already won the championship, Ye Feng doesn't think he can be compared with an epic player like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. He knows that there is still a big gap between him and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, but speaking of his inside skills It is still passed on from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who can be regarded as his half apprentice...

There is a long distance between Miami and Portland. It can be seen from the divisions of the two teams. The Heat belong to the Southeast Division, while the Trail Blazers belong to the Northwest Division. In other words, they are flying from the southeastern part of the United States. To the northwest, the distance is not too far.Normally, on such a long-distance flight, everyone would seize the time to take a nap, but this time, no one wanted to go to sleep, and they kept fighting until the plane landed at Portland International Airport.

Because they were traveling overnight, it was only daylight when the plane landed. Although everyone was in high spirits on the plane, they only thought about their big and soft beds when they got off the plane.Originally, McMillan planned to take the players to leave the airport quietly and go back to their respective homes, but when they dragged their suitcases out of the airport gate, they were shocked by the sight in front of them. There were still fans of the Blazers at this time. Wait outside the airport for their return!
I don't know how long they waited outside the airport, when Ye Feng saw them for the first time, everyone looked a little drowsy, and those banners were all crooked on the ground.Perhaps the airport security knew that they were here to welcome the pioneers back, so they were able to wait at the airport gate for so long. If other people stayed here for a long time, they would have been persuaded to leave by the airport.

Of course, there are some fans who are holding on, for fear of missing the time when the Blazers get off the plane and leave the airport to take the bus back.I don't know who yelled, and the others quickly woke up from the half-dream state. They saw the Trail Blazers players who were about to leave the airport at a glance, so they rushed forward, shouting various slogans, and pulled up the banner Hats off to the players and celebrate the Trail Blazers winning the championship.

Their enthusiasm also touched the Blazers players who were planning to go back to sleep. Who wouldn't want to have such loyal and fanatical fans?Although everyone was drowsy, they still pulled themselves together to sign autographs and take photos with the fans, completely forgetting that almost everyone was yawning with red eyes when they got off the plane.In their view, the fans waiting at the gate of the airport have worked harder than them, and it is a consolation to do so now.

However, the fans also knew that the Blazers flew back to Portland overnight. Seeing that they didn't have much rest on the plane, they didn't ask for autographs or group photos too much.Anyway, the team is going to hold a championship parade these days, and the scene at that time is really exciting. They just want to make a stand today, and they still want the players to go back and have a good rest. The celebration is not at this hour and a half Will do.

After boarding the bus, everyone looked at the bouquet of flowers in Ye Feng's arms and laughed, and some of them who had a good relationship even made jokes.As the MVP of the finals, Ye Feng sprained his ankle in the last game, so he naturally enjoyed a higher courtesy than others, so many bouquets are also a tribute from the fans.

Ye Feng put the flowers away, then slowly sat back in his seat, looking at the fans who were still unwilling to disperse around the bus, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.Matthews, who was sitting next to him, was very envious, and asked winkingly, "Ye, how does it feel to receive so many flowers? I hope your girlfriend won't be jealous."

Ye Feng smiled and said in a low voice: "I am proud of the team I play for. The Blazers fans may be the cutest people in the world."
