Chapter 222 032: Brilliant Journey
There was a slight buzzing in Rivers' head, not from outside noise, but from dizziness.
The Big Three lineup was brought into the finals by him, and he thought it would kill the Quartet. At least after the first game, everything moved in the expected direction.Unexpectedly, he was beaten by the Lakers for three consecutive games, and now he is on the verge of failure.
Ray Allen and Pierce are the two life-saving straws of Rivers, and the task of throwing the fairy ball is entrusted to them.However, it is difficult to imagine the difficulty of performing the miracle of 35 seconds and 13 minutes in the finals.
Garnett and James Posey run the screens, opening the floor and looking for offensive opportunities.
Gao Fei stood on the sidelines and kept waving his arms to block Rondo who was serving.
The basketball flew into the court from an unexpected position, landed in Ray Allen's hands, and then flew out again.
That's it's goal is the basket!
clang!
The sound of iron striking almost cost Rivers half his life.
Garnett quickly grabbed the rebound, layup with his left hand, and scored a second offense.
Lakers 86-80 Celtics!
Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak has left his seat to arrange the championship celebration in advance and arrange the ribbons used to celebrate the victory.
The situation on the court is not as relaxed as that off the court.
Goofy sent the ball to Kobe, and the Celtics immediately used foul tactics.
Goofy stood on the center line as Bryant got to the free throw line, watching from a distance the players gathered in the paint.
This is a sight that can often be seen. Because of the different games, it brings a different look and feel.
Kobe is very steady, the grand prize is in front of him, and he still maintains his mentality.
The first free throw was missed, which caused a clear sigh from the fans at the scene.
"It's really interesting. Los Angeles fans can feel the players' emotions." Su Cheng didn't bother to go over and clap his hands, and pointed to Kobe, which was a tacit understanding.
Kobe took a deep breath, regained his rhythm in the second free throw, and made a precise hit!
87-80!
41.3 seconds!
The Los Angeles fans felt like they had pressed the deceleration button, and the last few dozen seconds seemed extraordinarily long.
Rivers called a short timeout, seized 20 seconds to arrange tactics, and continued to let Ray Allen shoot three-pointers.
There is not much time left, and the point difference is still obvious. It is really difficult to reverse and win.
David Stern sat on the sidelines, watching the game patiently, waiting for the final result.
At present, the Finals MVP trophy has not yet been named the Bill Russell Cup, so Russell is not required to present the award.
Ray Allen lived up to expectations, facing the Lakers' extremely high-intensity defense, he made a super long three-pointer.
Pierce made fewer fouls and immediately attacked Goofy with the ball to gain more time.
Gao Fei knew that he was only one step away from victory, so he remained patient and waited for the final result.At times like this, impatience doesn't do any good.
The fans at the scene once again shouted his nickname neatly.
The support of the crowd, coupled with the boldness of being about to sweep the gentleman, allowed Gao Fei to shoot extremely stable free throws.
Made two free throws!
Gao Fei's personal score came to 30 points.
When Rivers called the final timeout, he knew clearly that the loss was about to happen.
Ray Allen shot three times, but this time the result was different, and he was stopped by Gao Fei, who was struggling to jump.
The Celtics' struggle was ultimately fruitless.
The Lakers beat the Celtics 90-84, won Game [-] of the series and won the NBA Championship.
高飞31分7篮板11助攻5抢断4封盖。效率很高，命中率达到65%。
Kobe contributed 28 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists.
Gao Fei thought he would be very excited, but he also felt that he deserved to win the championship.He took the game ball and handed it over to the equipment manager for safekeeping.
The Lakers players gathered on the court to celebrate together.
Most people are aware that this lineup may not exist next season.However, if you have wine and are drunk today, you still have to enjoy the current scenery to the fullest.
The sports media are very professional, and quickly calculated the average statistics of Gao Fei and Kobe.
Both industry insiders and fans know that the Most Valuable Player of the Finals will be produced between the two.Data comparison is the easiest way.
After five games, the average basic data of the two is not much different, but the winner is determined by the high-level data.
Gao Fei's PER reached 32.55, and the plus/minus value is also the highest of the two teams, and the data is comprehensively dominant.Unless media reporters are eccentric, there will basically be no deviation.
Thirteen media reporters were responsible for voting for the Most Valuable Player of the Finals. After research and analysis, they came to their own conclusions.
According to the media, the domestic market is the second largest after the US market, and there is no need to exclude outstanding players.Believe the data and vote for Goofy.
A few minutes later, David Stern, who knew the ownership of the MVP, came to the sidelines, ready to present the O'Brien Cup and the Finals MVP award.
The Lakers players put on the winning T-shirts brought by the staff and waited for the award ceremony.
"Gao, you should be the one to win the prize this time." Kobe Bryant studied the data of the first four games, and he was slightly inferior to Gao Fei.If he wants to win the FMVP, he has to play exceptionally well tonight.
He looked at the technical statistics and knew that it was basically useless.
The O'Brien Cup was taken over by Kobe, and he raised his hands for the media reporters to take pictures.
"Next up is the Finals Most Valuable Player award," said David Stern. "The winner is..."
The fans at the scene expected Gao Fei to have a happy ending, shouting his nickname in unison, just in time to interact with David Stern.
David Stern holds a microphone and smiles.He likes the reaction of the fans at the scene.It has always been Stern's wish to promote the globalization of the NBA. Having a top star from the second largest market is of great benefit to the promotion.
Even if Gao Fei retires, it is unlikely to leave the basketball career.As long as he is still active in the basketball circle, he has a very high popularity.
In any case, he is only 23 years old and could return to the game at any time.
"Congratulations to Gao Fei for being the MVP of the 2008 Finals!" David Stern announced the final result after the cheers subsided.
Gao Fei took over the heavy trophy, marking the end of his three-year career.
"Thanks to the fans of the Lakers Nation, thank you for your continuous support. Without you, we would not have succeeded." Gao Fei took the microphone and delivered a speech, expressing his gratitude to the Los Angeles fans.
No matter how lively the celebration is, there will be a moment when the curtain ends.
After returning to the locker room, the cheerful atmosphere continued.
Jerry Buss, Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar all came to the locker room to see Goofy who was about to return.
"Gao, thank you for your dedication over the past three years. Without you, the team would not have been able to win the championship twice in three years." What Jerry Buss said was not polite, but it sounded a bit like it.
Gao Fei hugged Jerry Buss with a cigar in his mouth, and said with a smile, "You should thank yourself, your trust has been repaid."
"Enjoy the fruits of victory that belong to you, and hope to see you again one day." Jerebas is not a young and strong guy, there are some differences, and it may be the last time.
"I may still do business here, and we can cooperate at that time."
"This is something for later, but you can try."
After Magic Johnson waited for Jerry Buss to leave, he greeted Gao Fei.
"I thought you were going to be the number one point guard in history."
"Maybe I'm not that ambitious." Gao Fei said with a smile, "It's good for you now."
"I'm not someone who cares about historical status. I hope to continue to watch you play. Your retirement this time is a loss for the Lakers."
"No, Mickey and Jerry are capable enough to form a championship lineup." Gao Fei knew that he could not have too much appeal in the United States, and he also knew that as long as the Lakers won the championship, most people would forget about him .
None of this is particularly important, at least to him.
Kobe came over to hug Gao Fei, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Gao, these three years of cooperation have been a wonderful experience for me. Thank you for coming and bringing such a strong fighting force to the Lakers."
"To achieve each other, you don't need to be so polite." Gao Fei remained humble.
In the post-match press conference, almost all questions were about Goofy.
Kobe wasn't jealous.He knows that this is Gao Fei's night, and in the rest of his career, the wider stage belongs to him.
Gao Fei was rarely calm, and answered the questions with the most friendly attitude, basically telling the secrets that the media reporters did not know.
"Gao, why did you even change your style? You used to be very resistant to media interviews." The ESPN reporter asked a question he was interested in after learning about the basketball content.
"To be honest, I really didn't want to be interviewed at that time, thinking that it would affect my state." Gao Fei replied easily, "I don't have to think about winning or losing, so I am naturally happy to accept your interview."
"Aren't you going to play BJ Olympics?"
"Of course we will." Gao Fei smiled happily.
The whole interview process was full of joy.
Gao Fei and Kobe walked back to the locker room, still surrounded by many media reporters.However, the topics are very conventional, without considering the environment.
"Then we'll be rivals." Bryant said with a smile, "I won't show mercy."
"That's good. You should do your best in a basketball game." Gao Fei and Kobe clapped hands, picked up his backpack, and walked out of the locker room.
Anne Hathaway was waiting for him outside the arena.
"Gao, your basketball career is temporarily over."
"Not yet, there is still the Olympic Games which is very important to me." Gao Fei reminded Anne Hathaway.
"Yes. I mean after the Olympics, what are your plans?"
"Maybe I will take a rest first, and then devote myself to the business world." Gao Fei told his plan, "I hope to have more assets."
On May 5, an earthquake occurred in Wenchuan.Gao Fei is in the playoffs, so he doesn't pay much attention, but he still donated millions of domestic endorsements.
He felt that if he wanted to help more people, he had to have more money.
"Are you going to take another step towards the chaebol's goal?"
"I have been moving forward, but the purpose may change." Gao Fei put his arm on the back of the chair and said, "I want to help more people."
"This is a great idea." Anne Hathaway believes that charity is great. No matter what the purpose is, as long as you are willing to do it, you can help people in need. "Although the sports media has always said that you are a great defender, But I never did. Now I do."
"I want to be a good guy more than a good player."
"Understood, boss." Anne Hathaway has a cooperation with Starlight Entertainment, and Gao Fei is his little boss.
The wind at night is very cool, which brings Gao Fei a refreshing feeling.
He devotes a lot of time to basketball, and after playing the Olympics, he can finally enjoy life to the fullest.For him, it is also a new experience.
"Are you still planning to find women in the entertainment industry?" Anne Hathaway talked about feelings.
Gao Fei thought for a while and said, "I don't want to settle down for now, it's fine to be single."
"I think you want to be promiscuous." Anne Hathaway has come into contact with many rich people and knows that they have no shortage of women.If you stay single, you don't have to accept moral judgment, and the people around you are constantly changing.
Gao Fei has no such signs yet, but no one can tell in the future.
The car was parked in Beverly Hills.
Gao Fei picked up the game ball and the FMVP trophy, and asked with a smirk, "Annie, do you want to come in and sit down?"
"Okay." Anne Hathaway is also single, so she doesn't reject any kind of flirting.
Caitlin hasn't rested yet, come to serve.
"Caitlin, here are some special dishes. Annie and I will have some drinks." Gao Fei will have a few days off to relieve the fatigue accumulated in the long league, and then he will return to China to report to the national team. Fan.
Caitlin still made a nutritious meal, took out the collector's edition red wine presented by the merchant, and opened the bottle for the two to drink freely.
Gao Fei looked at the bright night lights in the hotel area in the distance, and suddenly remembered the past.But he had happier prospects and decided to move on.
"Annie, I think you are very beautiful today."
"Is it because of makeup?"
"No, it may be that I am very happy today. If you choose to let go, your mind will be extremely relaxed."
"If I don't act, I don't think I can do it, so I still admire you." Anne Hathaway is not a businessman, so she can't figure out why Gao Fei can be so hard-hearted.
"I'm a man, so I can look at problems more rationally. Michael Jordan chose to be the boss in the end. Since he can get to that point, why bother to perform for others?" Gao Fei explained, "Even if I don't play games, Wouldn't it be happier to be able to play basketball?"
"You've really looked away." Anne Hathaway couldn't help but admire Gao Fei.
"Don't talk about it, drink."
The goblet was touched lightly, and the red liquid inside swayed slightly, as if a good life was beckoning to Gao Fei.
He will no longer enjoy the cheers of tens of thousands of fans, but there are more different funs.
Anne Hathaway is not a very passionate woman, and she doesn't want to experience a dewy relationship with Goofy.She thought it would be nice to be friends, and she shared a room with Caitlin and had an unforgettable night.
Gao Fei didn't go to see Anne Hathaway off the next day, but went to ESPN to accept the interview he agreed in advance.
ESPN takes this opportunity very seriously, and the studio is well-decorated and the content is rich.After the recording is over, post-editing is required before it can be presented to the audience.
……
Gao Fei finally finished his work in the United States, handed over the work to Tiger, bought a ticket back to BJ, and flew back to China overnight.
Due to jet lag, Goofy is equivalent to "losing" a day.
Sun Feiyang drove to the airport and picked up Gao Fei to go home.
"Xiao Fei, you will be liberated after the Olympics." Sun Feiyang said with a smile, "Do you plan to coach in a basketball school?"
Gao Fei was a little sleepy, his eyelids couldn't stop drooping, and he said with a smile, "Master, don't be joking. Even if I retire, I won't be able to become a coach in a sports school."
"Of course I know, it's just a joke." Feiyang Sun turned a corner and drove back to Gao Fei's parents' house, "Xiao Fei, don't you want to buy a house in BJ? You have to go back to live in China anyway. The accommodation is convenient."
Gao Fei didn't have a real estate in BJ. He heard the system avatar say that the house price would double in the future, so he decided to buy another one.But this kind of thing can be handed over to an intermediary, and there are more things I want to do right now.
"Master, how about we secretly go to Wenchuan before reporting to the national team?"
Sun Feiyang's expression darkened when he heard Wenchuan, and said: "If we go, we should try our best to go there by truck and bring some supplies that we can use."
"Okay, that's it."
Gao Fei knew that Feiyang Sun had lived in BJ for a long time and knew many people, so he entrusted this matter to him.
He still has jet lag, rests as much as possible, and waits to visit the traumatized city with Sun Feiyang.Their strength is weak, but they can still do their part.
