I’m Really Playing Basketball

On June 17, 2002, G4 of the Finals between the Bobcats and the Spurs continued in San Antonio.

Because of G3, the Spurs, who had high hopes, were defeated by 20 points at home. Therefore, before the start of this G4 game, no one would believe that the Bobcats would overturn in this game.

As for bringing the Finals back to Charlotte, this is even more unnecessary. According to the 232 format of the Finals, the Bobcats need to lose two consecutive games to bring the Finals back to Charlotte.

If this is the case, then there are real variables.

Therefore, almost all experts said before the game that the Bobcats will definitely beat the Spurs to win the championship in this game.

Therefore, after the G3 game, Chen Xiao fans from all over the United States gathered here in San Antonio.

After all, this is the sixth championship of Chen Xiao's career, which equals Jordan's. At the same time, this is also the first dynasty of Chen Xiao's career.

Therefore, the meaning of this championship is very important to Chen Xiao and Chen Xiao's fans.

Therefore, let alone in the United States, in China, before the start of the finals, the whole country welcomes this carnival as if it is welcoming the Spring Festival.

After all, in the finals between the Bobcats and the Spurs, the Chinese side unanimously believed that the Bobcats would win the championship.

And now, it is indeed as everyone imagined, it is indeed going to win the championship.

Therefore, in order to record the dynasty of Chen Xiao's career, unlike Yao Ming's dynasty, Chen Xiao's is a standard three-peat dynasty. Therefore, the whole of China is looking forward to this game, and CCTV is even more From the time Chen Xiao and Shanmao came to the Holy City, they broadcast live 24/7 everything about Chen Xiao in the Holy City.

Really, starting from June 13th until today, June 15th, CCTV was broadcasting everything about the Bobcats and Chen Xiao 12 hours a day. From when Chen Xiao got up to when he went to bed every day, he was always with Chen Xiao. It records Chen Xiao's smile, records Chen Xiao's sweat, and records Chen Xiao's seriousness, solemnity and hard work.

CCTV and the domestic audience seemed to not want to miss every moment of Chen Xiao's first dynasty in his career, and maybe the last dynasty.

Just like Michael Jackson's fans were crazy about Michael Jackson.

By the way, why do you say that this dynasty is the last of Chen Xiao's career?

Because after this season, Chen Xiao will be 30 years old. For Chen Xiao and the Bobcats, it is definitely impossible for the Bobcats to pay hundreds of millions in luxury tax next season to keep Rose.

In this case, with Rose leaving, Granger was seriously injured and his career was in doubt. The team was old and young. With the rapid rise of the Cavaliers and Bucks, many people did not believe that Chen Xiao could continue. Take a dynasty.

Maybe Chen Xiao can lead the team to win the championship again in his future career, but Dynasty...

This is really impossible.

Although the Bobcats' championship this time has extended the era of him and Wade for one year, the future does belong to James and Durant, although Chen Xiao may still be the strongest player in the league.

It was precisely because even the basketball experts in China had such predictions that CCTV was so concerned and grand about Chen Xiao's finals.

"After all, this is the pinnacle of Chen Xiao's NBA career!"

This finals is the pinnacle of Chen Xiao's career. It is impossible for Chen Xiao to reach such a pinnacle in the future. This is the consensus reached by the Chinese and American audiences.

Even the Spurs players think so.

Although the finals are already 0-3, this result is still quite sad for the Spurs players. However, when the two teams were warming up, Luo Ge, Duncan, Ginobili, Prince, Parker, Al Jackson , Dior, Leonard and others greeted Chen Xiao before the game and expressed their best wishes to Chen Xiao.

Well, it's a blessing, not a congratulation. After all, Chen Xiao hasn't led the Bobcats to win this game yet.

Although it is said that they are 0 to 3 behind and no team has been able to complete the miracle of overtaking, but now, the Spurs have indeed not lost.

Therefore, for Duncan and Luo Ge, coming to wish Chen Xiao before the game, who is now the focus of the world's attention, is already a good relationship between them. Otherwise, there will not even be blessings before the game.

Of course, no matter what they think in their hearts, the Spurs players know that even if they try hard to disrupt this game, it will be difficult. The Spurs players know this, and the Spurs audience also knows this.

Therefore, in this game, the Spurs' home court, most of the people sitting on the sidelines were Chen Xiao's fans.

Well, Chen Xiao's fans are not Bobcats fans.

Among the Chen Xiao fans sitting around the court at this time, some were wearing jersey No. 11 of Marquette University, some were wearing jersey No. 7 of the Nets, and of course, some were wearing jerseys of the Cavaliers and Bobcats. In addition to the jersey, there are quite a few people wearing Chen Xiao's Chinese team jersey.

And what is very surprising is that the number of Chen Xiao fans wearing these jerseys is even about the same.

After all, the colors of these jerseys are so recognizable.

Marquette's is gold.

The Nets are white.

The Cavaliers are dark red.

And bobcats are blue.

Of course, the national team jerseys of the Chinese team are also very recognizable, not only in colors, but also in different styles.

Therefore, seeing so many different Chen Xiao jerseys at the scene, and the numbers were almost the same, even Barkley and Kenny Smith, the commentators of TNT for this game, were very impressed.

"In the NBA, there are many superstars who have played for multiple teams. Even Jordan has played for multiple teams. In the NBA, there have always been a handful of superstars who have played for many teams. Among the super giants of multiple teams, Wonder Boy is the most special. He has received the love of all the teams he plays for. In perhaps the most important game of his career, these fans who once loved him, even if he I have already left, and I still love him, and I am willing to send my blessings to him."

"He has received blessings from all over the world!"

After Barkley yelled emotionally, Kenny Smith couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

This is really very rare.

Don't talk about NCAA and Chinese team, just talk about NBA teams, Chen Xiao has played for the Nets, Cavaliers and Bobcats.

In the Nets, he is the angel of the Nets fans, and now there is a bronze statue erected for him by the fans outside the Nets' home court.

In the Cavaliers, he is the GOD of Cleveland. The current Cavaliers arena is named after him. At the same time, there is also a bronze statue of him standing outside the arena.

In the Bobcats, there is no doubt that he is the greatest player in the history of the Bobcats. Michael Jordan, the owner, general manager and head coach of the Bobcats, has stated more than once that after the end of this season, Chen Xiao’s bronze statue will be It stands outside the Bobcats' home court, and the Bobcats' home court name will also be renamed from the Charlotte Bobcats Arena to 'Chen Xiao Center'.

See what kind of situation this is?

If other superstars have changed three teams in 10 years like Chen Xiao, not to mention bronze statues and stadium naming, even retired jerseys will not be easy.

For example, Xiao Du in history.

Xiao Du's level is already high enough, a super giant in the top fifteen levels in history.

I have changed three teams in my career, and whether the three teams will retire their jerseys is a very pending matter.

Super giants changing teams always bring various problems.

In this case, it is difficult to handle the relationship between the super giants and the fans of each team.

Even for a player like Nash, historically, when he went from Phoenix to the Lakers, his jersey was burned.

So, in the NBA, fans have never been so rational.

Fans are emotional.

No matter how good your reasons are, if you have changed three teams in your career, they are all three-surname domestic slaves.

However, what is surprising is that neither Nets fans, Cavaliers fans, nor Bobcats fans regard Chen Xiao as a domestic slave, and no other team fans despise Chen Xiao for changing teams so frequently.

However, after Kenny Smith sorted out Chen Xiao's career a little bit, he could understand it.

When Chen Xiao left the Nets, it was not him who wanted to leave. It was the Nets' management who coveted Carter before he led the Nets to the championship and traded him for Carter.

Fans certainly don’t blame Chen Xiao. Even now, all regular season and playoff games of the Nets in the 2002-2003 season are the best memories for New Jersey fans. Every game is extremely wonderful, especially Chen Xiao was young at that time. In the finals, he was very good at creating the 'Snake King's True Eye', 'Wolf King's True Eye' and 'God's Eye'. He took out 5 O'Neals with his left hand and five more with his right hand.

Therefore, even though almost 10 years have passed, Chen Xiao is still the favorite of Nets fans and New Jersey fans. Many Nets fans say that Chen Xiao left behind the greatest season and the greatest Finals performance in NBA history. Gave them.

As for the Cavaliers, Chen Xiao's departure was his own initiative. He was not forced or forced. However, Cavaliers and Cleveland fans still did not blame him, because everyone knew , it was indeed impossible for him and James to be in Cleveland at that time. After helping Cleveland realize its dream of a world championship, he very generously handed over the kingdom he protected to the hands of King James. , personally completed the coronation for James, and brought Cleveland the perfect king who can make them happy and satisfied for more than ten years.

To Chen Xiao, they really only have gratitude. Although Chen Xiao eliminated the Cavaliers in the playoffs time and again after leaving, Cavaliers fans are still grateful to Chen Xiao.

There is still only nostalgia for Chen Xiao and James, the "just partners".

The Cleveland Cavaliers led by Chen Xiao and James are too legendary.

The legendary moments in it are really no less enjoyable than those enjoyed by Nets fans. For example, facing the strongest Nets F7 in history in the playoffs, and constantly performing Miller moments against the strongest Nets in history.

Although James has played many perfect games with the Cavaliers over the years, if you ask the Cavaliers to choose their 10 favorite games, there will not be one dominated by James.

In the Bobcats, this goes without saying. Now Chen Xiao is a player of the Bobcats. Even if he is not a player in the future, Bobcat fans will not have any dissatisfaction with Chen Xiao. After all, as many Nets fans said , Bobcats fans are really lucky, they can have Chen Xiao for so many years.

A newly established team is about to win the fourth championship in team history so soon.

You know, the Celtics, Lakers, and Bulls are the only ones with more than 4 NBA championships.

If the Bobcats successfully win the championship, it will be the fourth team in history to win more than four championships.

The newest team in the league is about to rank fourth in the background, how lucky is this.

Moreover, not only the fans of all the teams that Chen Xiao played for came to wish Chen Xiao this time.

Look at those NBA stars on the sidelines.

Nets' star players Kenyon Martin and Richard Jefferson, Cavaliers' leading player LeBron James, as well as Boozer, Tyson Chandler, Monta Ellis, Lou Williams, Ja Mal Crawford, Aldridge, Randolph, and even Stoudemire, who was filled with endless anger when he left the Bobcats, all stood on the sidelines in suits and sent blessings to Chen Xiao.

Of course, these people naturally included O'Neill, who unscrupulously backstabbed Chen Ling after leaving the Bobcats.

O'Neal explained why he backstabbed Chen Xiao at the time: "The friendship with Chen Xiao is my life, and backstabbing him is my life."

O'Neal's very helpless words made people see his pain. He made it very clear that he did not want to stab Chen Xiao in the back. To stab Chen Xiao in the back would be to betray his life. However, for the sake of the effect of the show, He had no choice but to make a living.

I have to say that O'Neill is really good at acting, and it seems that his friendship with Chen Xiao really lasts forever.

It was precisely because so many good friends came to the scene that before the game, it seemed to be Chen Xiao's personal achievement show.

But no matter what, O'Neill's acting like this also allowed Chen Xiao to achieve another achievement that Barkley said.

"None of the players and coaches who have partnered with him said that he is not good, and everyone's blessings to him are from the bottom of their hearts!"

"That's why I said that he has really been blessed by the whole world!"

"even!"

When Barkley said even, on the big screen at the scene, Chen Xiao had already walked up to an old man, smiled and hugged him.

The old man's name is Rod Thorn, a legendary manager in the NBA. He once served as David Stern's second-in-command for 14 years. He is one of the people with the highest status in NBA history. At the same time, he is also the general manager of the Nets. The person who sent Chen Xiao away with his own hands and broke up the legendary net.

Of course, because of this, the whole world knows that he regretted this deal for the rest of his life.

Even he came to bless Chen Xiao at this time.

"Chen, can you still save New Jersey?"
