After the final whistle sounded, the scene was in an uproar.
Many Warriors fans covered their heads and faces, not wanting to believe that they really lost!
The Warriors players on the field also looked hard to accept that their efforts for a season had come to an end.
Curry looked up at the ceiling with his hands on his hips, Thompson had a complicated expression on his face, Green looked at the basketball in his hand, and then angrily threw it on the ground...
On the sidelines, Cole looked confused. Is his rookie season really over?
For a rookie coach, he should be happy that in his first year he not only led the Warriors to break the franchise record, but also led them to an unprecedented clean victory in the Western Conference Finals.
It can be imagined that the team was only one step away from advancing to the finals. It was so close to winning the O'Brien Cup, but it fell at the last step.
well!
All the thoughts finally turned into a long sigh.
After a while, Wang Zelin's data was displayed again on the large LED screen.
25 points, 16 rebounds, 10 assists, 5 blocks and 1 steal!
Triple-double and 4×5 in the playoffs, he really did it.
There is also a special note at the back: Wang Zelin’s 6th single-game triple-double in the playoffs so far in his career!
Judging from the current trend, in 1 to 2 years at most, he can break into the top five in the playoffs triple-double history list, and let his name appear on another list of NBA historical records.
"Incredible! Incredible!"
Mike Breen was amazed again and again. In his more than 20 years of commentary career, he has never seen such a super type who can be so dominant while still maintaining an all-round ability.
It's like... a fusion of O'Neal and Webber!
Suddenly, a crazy idea came to his mind, and he also had the idea of writing an article after the game.
At Oracle Arena, Warriors fans left the scene disappointed after the game. Immediately, many Warriors players also left one after another.
However, the Splash duo did not leave, but walked straight towards Wang Zelin.
"What are you doing? Want to have a fight? That's not right. With this guy's small body, it's unlikely..."
Just when Wang Zelin kept slandering, Curry stopped in front of him and said: "Congratulations! I hope you can defend the title! But next year, we will not lose again!"
After shaking hands and congratulating each other, Curry turned around and left, leaving Wang Zelin with a free and easy figure.
Damn it, you still have to show off after losing?
Just when Wang Zelin, who was messy in the wind, was about to speak, Thompson on the left also spoke: "Wang, promise me, you will not lose to LeBron! Otherwise, we will work hard for a year but lose to the championship runner-up. This is beyond words. It doesn’t sound good.”
Then, without giving Wang Zelin a chance to respond, the guy turned around and trotted to follow Curry.
"Lost to old bj? Are you kidding? Who would lose to that old man!"
Looking at the two people's retreating figures, Wang Zelin, who stayed where he was, murmured to himself.
After a while, it was time for the presentation ceremony of the Western Conference Championship Trophy.
Walking inside was a rather friendly Chinese-faced face, including Tan Huiming, NBA Vice Chairman and Chief Operating Officer of Chinese descent!
His English name is Mark Tatum, but when facing Chinese media or Asian media, he usually uses the Chinese name given to him by his mother.
"Congratulations, king! You have become the champion of the Western Conference Finals again!"
What was unexpected was that Tan Huiming expressed her congratulations to Wang Zelin in fluent Mandarin.
"Thank you! Ahem, um, how should I call you better."
After nodding, Wang Zelin suddenly looked embarrassed.
"Haha, just call me Lao Tan. It sounds more friendly."
Looking at the giant man in front of him who looked a little shy just now, Tan Huiming suddenly smiled. No matter how outstanding his performance is on the court, Wang Zelin is still just a young man in his early twenties off the court.
"Lao Tan... that's fine too!"
Although this title always reminded Wang Zelin of a certain brand of instant noodles, his attention quickly changed and he stared directly at the Western Conference Championship trophy in Tan Huiming's hand.
Compared to the awkwardness in his heart, that thing is the most important thing. Although he already got one last year, who would have too much of that thing?
…
…
Wang Zelin and his teammates are very excited to have reached the finals for two consecutive years.
No one dares to say now that it will be difficult for the Trail Blazers to defend their title as a small-market team. Up until now, the Trail Blazers have been extremely dominant in the Western Conference playoffs, winning 4-0 in the first two rounds. After sweeping their opponents, they encountered the tricky Warriors and lost two games.
12 wins and 2 losses!
If this can't be called dominance, then I don't know what kind of record can deserve it.
After overcoming the most difficult Warriors, their next road to defending the title is only the last Cavaliers!
Although the series between the Cavaliers and the Bulls has not yet ended, Wang Zelin feels that James, as the ultimate boss in the Eastern Conference, cannot overturn the Cavaliers.
As a result, he and his teammates have locked onto the ultimate enemy.
The Trail Blazers advanced to the finals ahead of schedule, making the night of the 31st destined to be restless!
"A thrilling series! It can be called the best in the new century!!!"
"Averaging 41+19+6+5+1 per game in the Western Conference Finals! Oh my God! The number one player in active service must be the King!"
"Wang: Sorry, I didn't perform well tonight. I only scored 25 points..."
"Next to complete their journey through the planes, they have only one last opponent left, the Cleveland Cavaliers!"
"The Finals are no less exciting than the Western Conference Finals! LeBron + Cousins + Irving, I'm about to get wet! No, it seems I have to prepare tissues in advance!"
"e on! Trail Blazers championship!"
"Cavaliers championship! LeBron is the chosen one!"
"The little emperor who returns to Cleveland will surely ascend the throne!!!"
…
The game had just ended, and fans online were completely blown away.
This majestic showdown at the top of the Western Conference made them feel absolutely exciting.
After the conference championship presentation ceremony, Wang Zelin returned to the locker room with the Western Conference Championship trophy. As soon as he opened the door, a bottle of champagne that had been prepared was sprayed at him.
Love from teammates!
"Win! We won! King, we really won!!!"
He finally regained his sight, but a big white mouse jumped into his arms, knocking him back.
When I looked down, it turned out to be Jokic!
At this moment, Jokic's face was filled with tears, and his excitement was indescribable.
During the playoffs, especially when he averaged about 5 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists per game, in 11 minutes of playing time, such data is quite efficient.
What's more, he's still just a rookie.
"Hey, man, don't look like that. We're just district champions, there's a championship waiting for us!"
Seeing Jokic's emotional changes, Wang Zelin felt warm and said with a smile.
Afterwards, he stuffed the Western Conference championship trophy into Jokic's arms, picked up a bottle of champagne from the ground, opened it skillfully, and joined the carnival in the locker room.
…
"Why haven't you come yet?"
"Didn't we agree that Wang Zelin would attend the press conference?"
"I shouldn't be playing poker with the cheerleader right now!"
"Hey, I can't rule out this possibility."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The scene of the post-match press conference.
The scene was already crowded, but Wang Zelin had not yet arrived. All the reporters looked confused and made all kinds of random guesses.
Wang Zelin just created his third playoff triple-double in a single season, but now he missed the post-game press conference!
This is beyond comprehension.
By the time the press conference began, reporters were already rushing to ask Wang Zelin where he had gone.
"Sorry for keeping everyone waiting for so long. Since today's game was very intense, Wang and other teammates were sharing the joy after the victory."
Terry Stotts was well prepared, and when faced with reporters' questioning, he appeared calm and calm.
Although the reporters are still unwilling to give up, without Wang Zelin and their news materials, their news materials will naturally be reduced, and they will also feel a little regretful.
Just recalling the various crazy performances Wang Zelin contributed in this series, I understand.
It is precisely because of the many fierce battles before that the fruits of victory tonight are even more precious.
Now even if the world collapses, it cannot stop the carnival of those young people.
Without the protagonist, the press conference ended in a hurry after more than ten minutes.
"Xiao Li, please go back first, sister still has something to do!"
Seeing her colleagues around her gradually leaving, Zhou Lin'an seemed to have thought of something. She stood there and frowned for a while, then seemed to have made a difficult decision in her heart to let the photographer next to her leave first.
"Ah! Oh, okay, then Sister Zhou, please pay more attention to your safety."
Photographers who can be dispatched to foreign countries are basically human beings. It didn't take long to think of some of the ambiguous rumors that Zhou Lin'an and Wang Zelin had spread before, and they immediately understood.
Half an hour later.
"Why hasn't Zelin come yet? Why don't you send him a message? No, it won't be a surprise."
While Zhou Linan was waiting, she realized that the sky was already dark and it was raining lightly.
It was still raining a little in the middle of the night at eleven o'clock. The dress was very cool and she was a little cold.
More than ten minutes passed.
Just when Zhou Lin'an couldn't bear the wait anymore, there was movement behind her.
"Beauty, wait for someone."
Zhou Lin'an turned her head at the deep magnetic voice.
A gray casual jacket was draped over her shoulders.
"Zelin? You...you haven't left yet?"
"Oh, do you really want me to leave? Then I'll leave now!"
"Hate!"
Of course Zhou Lin'an understood that the other party was teasing her, but when she saw the coat on her body, she felt an indescribable warmth in her heart.
"I'm just about to go for a ride. Beautiful lady, do you want to come with me?"
"OK!"
…
I don’t know how long the car drove, but the light rain finally stopped, and the two of them arrived at the north shore of Lake Merritt in Oakland.
Since 1868, when the mayor of Oakland proposed turning this area into an artificial lake and ecological reserve, Lake Merritt has become the largest artificial saltwater lake in the United States, with the function of regulating urban flooding and providing bird conservation.
It is also the first wildlife reserve in North America.
Arriving at the shore of the lake, Wang Zelin saw a children's playground and bird sanctuary, where many citizens played with their children under the starry sky.
The car stopped in front of a large building.
"Let's get out of the car and take a walk."
When the two got out of the car, Zhou Lin'an saw that this place was actually a paradise, with a green grassland at their feet, a beautiful flowery lakeshore in front of them, and a carousel not far behind them.
“It’s so beautiful here!”
Zhou Lin'an's mouth twisted. At this moment, she had forgotten the original purpose of this trip to collect first-hand information.
"Zelin, you can wear these clothes, you only have a single shirt on you."
After regaining consciousness, she took the initiative to hand her coat to Wang Zelin.
"It's okay. My skin is thick and strong, and it's impervious to wind and rain."
After taking over the coat, Wang Zelin put it on Zhou Lin'an's shoulders again. Due to the size difference, the latter seemed to be wearing a windbreaker.
"Glib tongue."
Zhou Lin'an secretly smiled, and her face turned red instantly. Her fair and delicate face could not hide the joy in her heart.
Under the starry sky, a cool wind blew. Zhou Lin'an felt a little cold. She tightened her clothes with both hands and hugged her chest tightly.
At this moment, a pair of warm arms suddenly hugged her from behind.
Zhou Lin'an's head trembled, her face turned red, her heart beat faster, and she slowly turned her head.
Under the starry sky, countless beautiful and gentle lights shone on the handsome and gentle face in front of her. She was filled with endless joy and looked at Wang Zelin with her big, gentle and bright eyes.
Immediately afterwards.
Wang Zelin's face gradually came closer and closer.
Zhou Lin'an felt the breath of the person in front of her was so strong and warm. Before she could react, a gentle kiss came to her.
It felt like eating a big, sweet marshmallow...
…
------Digression-----
In the previous chapter, there was an error in the ranking of the top five triple-double records in NBA playoff history. The second place after Magic was the old bj's 15 times. It was accidentally written as Zhang Dashuai, which has been changed.
