I’m Really Playing Basketball

The opening game between the Warriors and the Lakers ended with Chen Xiao, Wade and Luo Ge laughing maniacally with their hands on their hips.

After the game, many experts interpreted the unbridled laughter of the three people as a kind of "laughing and proud" similar to the "smiling pride" of a peerless master who retired after becoming famous.

Although arrogant, they are worth it, because in the first 15 years of their careers, they won the NBA championship for 14 years. The three of them are legends who truly dominated the NBA for an era.

If the time of the Celtics dynasty is counted as one era, the three of them can even be regarded as ruling two eras.

The three of them are a unique trio in NBA history.

The greatest trio in NCAA history, after entering the NBA, can still dominate everyone in this way. From the beginning of its birth, the combination of these three means arrogance, invincibility, and dominance.

Therefore, when the three of them bid farewell to Wade in such an arrogant manner, no one said that they were not worthy, not even the fans who did not like them.

But for Chen Xiao, Wade and Luo Ge, they knew very clearly that the three of them didn't mean this when they laughed wildly.

Twenty years ago, their laughter represented confidence in their future careers.

And now, the three of them laughing wildly means they are satisfied with their past careers.

There are no regrets in their careers.

They left with their original intentions.

And this laughter was their original intention twenty years ago.

However, no one from Chen Xiao, Wade and Luo Ge explained this at the post-game press conference.

Because there is no need, there are some things that only the three of them need to know.

Therefore, at the post-game press conference, Chen Xiao, Luo Ge, and the reporters at the scene all praised Wade.

Wade once again thanked Chen Xiao, Luo Ge, Yao Ming, his wife and his wife's family, as well as other former teammates of the Heat, and the Heat's head coach Rick Carlisle at the post-game press conference.

When Wade was thanking him, sensitive reporters also discovered that Wade also thanked someone he has always cared about, the president of the Heat, Pat Riley.

Therefore, when a reporter asked this question, Wade smiled and said: "If it weren't for Mr. Riley, I think I would have regrets in my NBA career."

After Wade said with a smile, everyone suddenly realized.

Yes, if Pat Riley treats Wade like he treats Yao Ming, then with Wade's character, he will definitely not leave the Heat. If he does not leave the Heat, it will be impossible to reunite with Chen Xiao. If he and Chen Xiao If Xiao doesn't fit the body, then naturally he won't be able to attract Brother Luo.

Finally, it is naturally impossible for this trio that has made the United States crazy for the past two decades to unite in the NBA and contribute such wonderful and memorable times to everyone.

Therefore, what Wade said is really right. Marquette and Three Eagles fans across the United States have to thank Pat Riley.

Of course, as to whether Wade is sincerely grateful or sarcastic, only Wade himself knows.

However, in today's game between the Warriors and the Lakers, Pat Riley did not attend the game between the Heat and the Bucks. Instead, he appeared at the God Chen Memorial Arena in Oakland, Golden State, to bid farewell to Wade.

It can be seen that Pat Riley is actually a big-picture person.

In fact, Pat Riley told reporters after the game: "I communicated with Dwyane this summer. I regret the decision I made back then. I hope he can give the Heat the last game of his career. I hope he can play the last game of his career to the Heat." He could retire with the Heat, but unfortunately, he refused, but I can understand his choice. If it were me, I would make the same choice. When I saw him laughing wildly with God and Ron after the game At that time, I knew he made the right decision and we got to enjoy one of the greatest legendary moments in the NBA."

Pat Riley didn't lie. He actually contacted Wade before the draft. He hoped that Wade would sign a short-term contract with the Heat after he jumped out of his contract in the summer to end his career. Even if he didn't sign with the Heat and stay with the Warriors, he still hoped that Wade would The opponent in the last game was the Heat, played at the Heat's home court.

This Wade did not refuse, but Wade hopes that his last game can include Wade Jr.

But obviously, Pat Riley failed to meet this requirement. Although the Heat draft pick is behind the Lakers, if he is willing to trade up, he can actually get Wade Jr.

But as a businessman who does everything in the interests of the team, his warmth towards Wade is still no match for the interests of the team.

The Heat don't need Wade, and there is no need to pay such a high price to get him.

He feels guilty about Wade, but this guilt is not enough for him to sacrifice for a star who has left the Heat. Even if Wade is the greatest star in the history of the Heat, that won't work either.

Therefore, Wade's last game became the Lakers.

For Wade, does he want his last game to be in Miami?

Of course I hope.

However, it was obvious that he knew what Pat Riley was like, and he would not be deceived by Pat Riley twice. Therefore, this time, he was not disappointed because he knew that this was an impossible thing.

After Chen Xiao and Luo Ge bid farewell to Wade together, on October 22, 2021, the Warriors played their second game of the season away from the Spurs.

This game once again focused the attention of basketball fans across the United States.

There was even more focus than Wade's farewell game.

After all, Luo Ge's fans are not just ordinary basketball fans, but also many black female idols.

Let's put it this way, Brother Luo is the Chen Xiao of America.

That is to say, Brother Luo does not have a system, does not have unlimited endurance, and he has no interest in that aspect, otherwise Brother Luo can also harvest unlimitedly.

Although Luo Ge has been married to Beyoncé for a long time, how could those black female idols in the United States give up pursuing Luo Ge?

Wouldn't it be that a married Brother Luo, who is more responsible and temperamental, is more attractive?

In fact, this is indeed the case.

And these black actresses who continue to pursue Brother Luo are actually not without success.

Although Luo Ge is a very, very good person.

But there was someone who was too crazy to resist. According to Chen Xiao's understanding, Brother Luo got the trick that time.

I originally thought I was trying to persuade her to give up, but I didn't expect...

On October 22, outside the AT\u0026T Center, home of the Spurs, Beyoncé took Roger's twin children and Rihanna took his twin children and met unexpectedly in front of the bronze statue of Roger at the AT\u0026T Center.

Tonight is the last game of Luo Ge's career. In his 13-year career with the Spurs, Luo Ge has won 12 times in first defense, 11 times in the first team, 1 time MVP, and 2 times FMVP. One, of course, is extremely beloved by Spurs fans.

Therefore, even though they are Luo Ge's opponents tonight, Spurs fans are really treating this game as a festival.

Since the NBA opening game started two days ago, Spurs fans have been celebrating and waiting for this game.

In front of the bronze statue of Ronaldo in the AT\u0026T Center, it is definitely the most lively place for Spurs fans.

Then, seeing Rihanna and Beyoncé, who have supported hundreds of gossip media outlets in the United States in the past few years, gathered here, the Rogo fans celebrating on the spot put aside their own celebrations and got ready to watch this big show. .

However, what disappoints these Spurs fans is that the two big sisters in the American entertainment industry, who usually quarrel with each other in the media, did not quarrel this time.

The two even looked like they were talking and laughing.

However, looking at the gritted teeth in the smiles of Beyoncé and Rihanna when they spoke, I am afraid that what they said was also like Bichi, Hua Q and the like.

However, although these two big sisters in the American music industry, the two superstars who have won 37 Grammys together are unhappy with each other.

But their relationship with their children is very good.

The four children were talking and laughing among themselves and looking at the bronze statue of their father. It was really interesting.

By the way, this time the Spurs erected a bronze statue for Luo Ge. In fact, it was not just for Luo Ge, but also for Duncan and Popovich.

When Duncan retired, he only had four words. When Duncan retired, there was no parade and no national attention to see him off. He left very quietly.

After leaving, the Spurs did not indicate that they would erect a bronze statue for Duncan, nor did Duncan himself request it.

Many Spurs fans and local citizens have been petitioning for Duncan's bronze statue over the years, but the Spurs have not done anything.

This time, what makes Spurs fans and San Antonio citizens happy is that the Spurs erected three bronze statues at once.

Obviously, the Spurs have already thought about it, that is, one day, they will erect bronze statues for Duncan, Popo and Luo Ge at the same time.

By the way, this season, Pop also announced that he will retire as an NBA head coach after coaching this game against the Warriors.

At this point, Duncan, Popovich, and Ron Howard, who created the Spurs legend, will all retire from the active NBA stage.

At this time, fans are admiring the erected bronze statues of Duncan, Luo Ge and Popovich, and inside the AT\u0026T Center, Luo Ge is now in the Spurs home team locker room with Spurs players. , the coach, and the staff were chatting.

Luo Ge spent 13 of his 19-year career with the Spurs. For the Spurs, Luo Ge is one of the team's greatest legends.

For Luo Ge, the Spurs are also the most special NBA team in his heart.

If he hadn't wanted to fulfill his old dream, he would have stayed with the Spurs for the rest of his life.

Even if he failed to stay with the Spurs forever, his loyalty and contribution to the Spurs were still respected by the entire team and the entire city.

Although Dwight Howard is the only Spurs teammate left at that time, when Luo Ge appeared in the Spurs locker room, the current boss of the Spurs, Jimmy Butler, took the lead in giving Luo Ge a standing ovation for his return.

And watching Luo Ge enter the Spurs locker room again, Popovich, who single-handedly created Luo Ge, had red eyes and burst into tears for a while.

When people get old, they always miss the past, especially after their wife leaves. Bobo, who has always been dissatisfied with aging, also finds that he is actually old.

This can be seen from his current coaching, he no longer has the original vigor.

Many people say that he led the US team to FIBA ​​and was taught a lesson by various FIBA ​​masters. After returning, he lost his confidence and the ability to turn decay into magic.

In fact, that's not entirely the case. It's more that his mentality is indeed older than before.

Duncan and Ron Howard are the two softest players in Popovich's heart.

If you really have to compare, then Duncan is Popovich's first time, first love, and goddess, while Ron Howard is the one who puts the most effort and sacrifices the most, his wife.

Yes, when Duncan came to the Spurs, he was already a complete player. There weren't that many things Popovich could change about Duncan.

But Ron Howard is different. Before Ron Howard came, he was just McGrady's younger brother in the Magic. He was a role player with star player potential who was dumped by McGrady after taking the blame.

It was Popovich who developed Ron Howard's new offensive style bit by bit, and led Ron Howard to grow into a top ten superstar in history bit by bit.

It can be said that Ron Howard is a player who carries all his efforts and ideas.

Especially after being betrayed by Leonard, another player he had also placed high hopes and efforts on, Popovich couldn't hide his feelings every time he saw Ron Howard.

So much so that when I had to bid farewell to Ron Howard in person in this game, I burst into tears.

Popovich has been strong all his life in the NBA and has never been soft. Unexpectedly, in the last game of his coaching and the last game to bid farewell to Ron Howard, he showed such a soft look to the world.

Luo's farewell today was broadcast live on TNT. Luo, who is very popular in the United States, wanted to say goodbye, and the standards were much higher than Wade's.

Therefore, the look of Popovich hugging Luo Ge was seen by fans across the United States and even the world.

"Coach, this doesn't look like you."

"No, this is me. I've been pretending all my life, but I won't pretend anymore today."

Yes, no one is born with a heart of stone. Eighteen years ago, he changed himself for the first time for Ron Howard, and he will never intentionally hurt his opponents on the court again.

And today, he once again changed himself for Ron Howard, letting the world see his vulnerable side.

When Popovich and Ron Howard hugged each other and cried, it was actually not that important to the game between the Warriors and the Spurs.

The relationship between Popovich and Ron Howard as master and disciple, and their mutual appreciation for each other's achievements, have long transcended all of this.

Just like Maizi, a former Spurs player, said when he saw this scene and his eyes were red with tears.

"They are not a father and son like Wade and Wade Jr., but their relationship is better than a father and son. Pop is Ron's mentor in basketball, and Ron is the soul of Pop's basketball. The connection between them , beyond the body.”

Maizi's words seem very mysterious.

However, everyone understood Bobo's cry.
