One Guard

Chapter 780: Double Happiness

16 wins and 1 loss, with a winning rate of 94.12%, the highest in NBA history! The Dallas Mavericks have become an unprecedented team. They have crushed the entire league from the regular season to the playoffs like no other team has ever done.

On the temporary podium at Quicken Loans Center, Yiyang happily received his third O'Brien Cup. This is also the second consecutive year that the Dallas Mavericks have won the championship trophy.

Two consecutive championships, although this achievement is not as great as the three consecutive championship dynasty. But in the NBA, there are only a handful of teams that can win consecutive championships.

A team as powerful as the Celtics' Big Three, although famous, has only won one championship.

Yiyang raised the O'Brien Cup above his head, indicating that his era has officially arrived. This is Yiyang's first consecutive championship, but everyone believes that it won't be the last.

LeBron James watched the entire championship award ceremony on the TV in the locker room. When he decided to leave for Miami last season, LeBron thought he would be the one to stand on the podium this year.

But contrary to expectations, the strength of the Mavericks has been difficult to shake. Even if they reunited, they could not change James's decline in this duel.

Wade took the O'Brien Cup from Yiyang and smiled happily. Last season, he lost the championship trophy because of the Mavericks. This season, he also regained the highest honor because of the Mavericks.

Dwyane Wade, like Yiyang, already has 3 O'Brien Cups. James is lagging behind again, he always seems to be one step behind Wade...

After Wade, it was Dirk, who also won the championship trophy for the third time, who raised the O'Brien Trophy above his head. After winning the championship in 2011, Dirk felt that he was lucky enough. As an international player, being able to lead the team to win a championship in the NBA in this life, being able to get rid of the title of "softie", and taking a further step forward in his historical status, all these made Dirk extremely satisfied at the time!

But what about now? He has two more championship trophies and two more championship rings! Yiyang's arrival changed the fate of the Dallas Mavericks.

After that, it was Yiyang’s college teammate Shelvin. BA championship trophy. In the past, this was an honor that he could not even imagine! Being able to make a living in the NBA is everything Mark has longed for. After being waived in the middle of the season, Mark even thought he would spend the rest of his career in the Development League.

But now, he stood on the podium and held the gold cup, which represents the highest honor in the basketball world.

After the championship awards were completed, it was time for the FMVP awards. In this year's finals, Iguodala performed very well.

His relentless defense against LeBron James was one of the main reasons why the Mavericks were able to sweep the opponent 4-0.

But in the face of awards like FMVP, even Iguodala can't compete with Yiyang. 43 seconds and 16 minutes. With this alone, Yiyang is qualified to become one of the most valuable FMVPs in NBA history!

"Boy, I didn't expect that I would award this trophy to you for the second consecutive year." When Bill Russell presented the award, he made a little joke with Yiyang as always.

"I'll come again next year!" Yiyang bent down slightly and took the second FMVP trophy of his career with both hands.

Since the emergence of the FMVP award, only 5 players have been able to achieve consecutive wins. The names of these five people are all like thunder, and they are all absolute superstars. Michael Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant and James in previous years. Now, Yiyang's name is also prominently listed.

In the past, people said that Yiyang was close to a legend. But at this moment, he has already joined the list of legends!

"No international player has ever achieved such great success on the NBA stage. The Mavericks have won two consecutive championships! Danyi's legendary career has just begun!"

The left hand is the O'Brien Trophy, and the right hand is the Finals Most Valuable Player Award. Yiyang and his teammates stood on the podium, while reporters took photos frantically.

74 wins, 16 wins and 1 loss, a 4-0 sweep in the finals, 43 seconds and 16 minutes... This championship team in the 14-15 season will be regarded as a classic by future generations, just like the Chicago Bulls back then. That way, it will never be forgotten.

※※※

After the awards, as usual, the players started a fierce champagne fight in the locker room. After the champagne fight, there was another nightclub party. When Yiyang woke up the next day, he felt nothing except a splitting headache.

The rest of the Mavericks team were similar to Yiyang. After Marion woke up, he found that his pants were missing. God knows how he got back to the hotel yesterday.

Despite this, the Mavericks players couldn't wait to get on the plane back to Dallas at noon. The Mavericks players all know that now, everyone in Dallas is waiting for them to take back the O'Brien Cup.

Like last year, Yiyang still made his final appearance. As soon as he appeared with a championship trophy and FMVP trophy in his arms, a wave of noise came and almost knocked Yiyang to the ground!

This year, the team that came to welcome the Mavericks players home was even bigger. Yiyang stood on the gangway and looked around. It was dark and full of human heads! Maybe half of Dallas is here!

After getting off the plane, even the mayor of Dallas personally greeted him and shook hands with the Mavericks players.

"Tonight, I'm going to hold a grand celebration dinner for you at the city hall! Gentlemen, be sure to attend!" It can be seen that the mayor is respectful to the Mavericks players.

Although Dallas is not like Cleveland, there is no doubt that in the past two years, due to the relationship between the Dallas Mavericks and the international factors of Yiyang, Dallas' economy has also grown by leaps and bounds based on the sports industry!

The Mavericks have brought not only honors to the city of Dallas, but also real benefits! Dallas' tourism revenue has surged in recent years, with more and more Chinese tourists appearing on the streets of Dallas. On days when the Mavericks are playing, places like restaurants and business districts are basically overcrowded, and most of them are not Dallas locals at all!

No one slacks off on a cash cow, not even the mayor. The Mavericks have done so much for this city, but the mayor feels that his little dinner is not worth mentioning!

Under the arrangement of the mayor, the Mavericks players took special cars and drove slowly through the deserted streets of Dallas. Today's formation makes Cuban even dare not imagine what the championship parade will look like in a few days.

Finally, the Mavericks players arrived at the American Airlines Center Arena. Surrounded by the fans, they really experienced the treatment of becoming heroes.

Around you, there are tens of thousands of people looking at you with admiration! Most of them would even name their unborn children after these heroes!

Yiyang received undoubtedly the loudest cheers, and everyone, regardless of gender, old or young, was willing to scream for Yiyang.

After more than half an hour of crowding, with the full assistance of the Dallas police, the players finally entered the arena.

Everything was the same as last year. Cuban asked Yiyang to personally put the O'Brien Cup into the small showroom. Yiyang still remembers that when he first joined the team, Cuban took him to visit. The room was still empty. Apart from a Western Conference championship trophy, there was nothing interesting to see.

But now, it is decorated in a colorful way. Unforgettable photos and great moments from every Mavericks team are hung on the wall. The scene of Yiyang completing an arm-hanging dunk during the dunk contest was enlarged by Cuban and placed in the center! Of course, the most eye-catching thing in this room is the three golden O'Brien Cups!

"What did I say last year? This small room will need to be expanded sooner or later!" Cuban looked at his players and coaches with a smile. When Cuban said this last season, he was actually just joking.

But now, it's clear to everyone. Three consecutive championships are really not far away from them!

After placing the O'Brien Cup in place, the Mavericks announced their disbandment. Starting today, the players don’t have to train, play, or attend any damn press conferences. After a year of fierce fighting, they had another happy holiday.

After the team disbanded, Yiyang couldn't wait to drive home. He hadn't seen his wife and mother for several days, and he missed them very much.

But today, when he returned home as usual, Yiyang did not see Vignali greeting him at the door. Feeling a little uneasy, Yiyang went straight to the kitchen, but did not see Vignali. Just when he felt strange, Vignali came down from upstairs after hearing the noise, with a complicated expression. When those words came to her lips, Vignali found herself a little nervous.

"Mom, don't cook tonight. Let's go out to eat and celebrate!"

"Yes, Mom! The mayor invites us to a celebration dinner tonight. You should go too! Vig, what's wrong with you? You look worried." Yiyang could tell at a glance that there was something on Vignali's mind. After all, the two knew each other too well.

"I...uh...you're going to be a father, too!" Vignali lowered her head and blushed slightly.

These words were like a bolt from the blue, as if time had stopped.

Wen Xue's eyes widened and the plate in her hand shattered to the ground. And what about Yiyang? Just like when he competed with Irving for the ball in the final attack on the basketball court, he rushed forward and hugged his wife tightly in his arms!

"Be gentle, don't hit the child." Vignali smiled happily, while Wen Xue on the sofa had red eyes.

Did you see it? old man. This family, which was originally torn apart, is finally becoming complete.
