Oracle Arena.
A grand award ceremony is being held here. Although the Minnesota Timberwolves are an away team for the fans in Oakland, many people still gave them respectful applause to thank them for their wonderful contributions. Performance.
The league's newly appointed president, Adam Silver, also personally stood up and handed the Western Conference Championship trophy to the Timberwolves players as all the fans watched.
As the team leader, Zhao Feiyang originally stood on the far right, a certain distance away from President Xiao Hua on the far left.
But when the trophy was handed over, none of the players picked it up immediately. They just stared at Zhao Feiyang silently.
"Zhao, come and pick it up! If you hadn't led us, we wouldn't have been able to get such an honor..."
Kevin Martin said.
"Yes, you are our team leader, the only leader..."
The person who said this is Dwight Howard.
At this moment, his face was full of smiles, but when he said these words, his expression was very serious, and his every move showed his respect for Zhao Feiyang.
If he was not convinced before, then after the team won the Western Conference championship, Howard no longer had any doubts about "Zhao Feiyang is the only leader of the team".
"Zhao! Come on! Don't refuse! If you don't take it, we won't move first..."
Zach LaVine also stood up and said.
The same goes for other players. Even if they didn't say anything, no one had a different opinion.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Feiyang had no choice but to take the initiative to walk to President Xiao Hua. After receiving the Western Conference championship trophy, he did not appear too excited. He just happily lifted the trophy and handed it to the side. Howard's hands.
"Dwight, pass it on! Let every brother feel it... This is not our end, our end is the O'Brien Cup..."
Howard nodded.
However, the smile that couldn't be hidden at the corner of his mouth still betrayed him. He held the Western Conference championship trophy in his arms with a happy face. If there weren't so many people, he might have kissed him a few times before he would give up.
"Oh! God! It's been many years...the last honor was the Eastern Conference Finals..."
"It's been so long that I almost forgot this feeling..."
Although Howard was a little nostalgic, he was not very reluctant to part with him.
Soon he passed the trophy to the next person, and the person who received the trophy was Kevin Martin. Martin had an emotional expression on his face and a very pleased smile on his lips. He kept rubbing the words on the trophy, as if holding the cheek of a blonde girl, with a very confused expression.
"Finally got you, man!"
"Damn it... you came too late, my career is almost over..."
As he spoke, Martin seemed to want to cry, and tears kept rolling in the corners of his eyes.
Seeing him like this, Raven on the side first patted his shoulder, and then comforted him in a low voice, "Hey, Kevin, don't cry... Man, if you do this now, wait for us What will we do if we win the championship?”
"Better save your tears for the championship!"
Raven's opening reminded Martin.
He quickly put away his sad mood and smiled happily again.
"Damn it!"
"Zach, thank you for the reminder. If it weren't for you, I would have wasted so much emotion... It's your turn, man, to pick up the trophy..."
Before Martin could finish his words, LaVine could no longer hold back and grabbed the trophy.
Unlike the veterans, LaVine is now only a sophomore in the league and his career has just begun.
Of course LaVine is ecstatic to receive such an honor just starting out.
He was not as able to control his emotions as the veterans. He picked up the trophy and kissed it regardless. He kissed it seven or eight times in a row before finally letting go.
After letting go, LaVine was still a little reluctant. Before handing it to the next player, he raised the trophy high again and greeted a Timberwolves staff member standing opposite him.
"Hey Smith, can you take some pictures for me?"
"That's right, here's a close-up... I'll post it online, man, use your best shooting technique... Yes, that's right, that's it... .”
After finally taking the photo, before LaVine could continue, Andrew Wiggins couldn't help it. He took the trophy from LaVine's hand and complained about LaVine while admiring it.
"Hey, Zach, you guys are too boring... This is not a trophy, not a girl. If you keep it for yourself, I won't agree..."
"Brothers have been hungry for a long time. You cannot monopolize such an honor alone..."
the other side.
After the Western Conference Championship trophy was awarded, President Xiao Hua presented the Western Conference Finals MVP trophy.
There is no doubt that this trophy is of course awarded to Zhao Feiyang.
His performance has been the best since the series, and he is also the team's most stable. It can be said that the Timberwolves can do without anyone, and they absolutely cannot do without him.
Just like a car, if there is no engine, no matter how good the other parts are, it cannot run on the road.
For the Timberwolves, Zhao Feiyang is the engine. No matter how well others perform, they are at best matched with a suitable gearbox and chassis.
When the Western Conference Finals MVP trophy was handed to Zhao Feiyang, many Chinese fans at the scene clapped and shouted excitedly.
Before the game was over, Zhao Feiyang was their "opponent", but after the game, Zhao Feiyang's Chinese identity was undoubtedly the pride of the Chinese.
Just like Yao Ming, he was questioned at first, but in the end he achieved All-Star status.
However, it seems that Zhao Feiyang has reached a height that exceeds that of Yao Ming.
"MVP!"
"MVP!"
"MVP!"
The fans at the scene shouted loudly, and the atmosphere was very lively. For a moment, some Timberwolves players were even confused. It seemed that this was not the home court of the Warriors, but Zhao Feiyang's home court!
"Zhao, do you have anything to say?"
After introducing Zhao Feiyang's performance in the series and various statistics from the Western Conference Finals, president Xiao Hua handed the microphone to Zhao Feiyang's hands.
Facing the live audience and the cameras of fans around the world, Zhao Feiyang appeared calm and confident. He picked up the microphone and said what he wanted to say calmly.
"The Warriors are a great opponent! We lost to them last year, and this time we finally won it back!"
"But this is not our end. We will continue to fight until we win the championship and impress the whole world!"
