334. After winning the championship... (5.1K words for a monthly ticket)(1/2)
With the Orlando Magic successfully winning the 2008-09 season championship trophy, this night is destined to be sleepless for the city of Orlando.
When everyone returned to the locker room, everyone in the Magic picked up the champagne and squandered it, even though the champagne they held was always tens of thousands of dollars a bottle.
But on this night, all the champagne is not for drinking, but for spraying each other to celebrate.
On the way to the locker room, a large number of reporters were carrying cameras and filming the Magic Team.
At the same time, Iverson finally couldn't help but tears in his eyes, and tears of joy were left on the way back to the locker room.
Because this day seemed to be a bit too late for Iverson. After all, when Iverson first entered the league, he showed his super offensive ability.
At that time, all the fans always believed that Iverson would definitely become the most dominant man in the league.
But no one expected that at Iverson's peak, he had always missed the championship trophy.
No matter how impressive the team was in the regular season, he has been rejected by other teams since entering the playoffs.
On this day, Iverson finally fulfilled a great regret in his career and followed the Orlando Magic to win the championship trophy for the 2008-09 season.
From then on, he got rid of the title of the Uncrowned King, took a step further in the historical status of the NBA, and became a true superstar.
Except for Iverson, other players were also very excited on this day. Even though Su Jiu was a man of two lives, when Su Jiu saw the championship trophy, he still couldn't help but tremble all over excitedly.
After all, being able to follow the team in its rookie season to win the supreme championship trophy, which can be said to be a huge honor for any player.
What's more, Su Jiu is one of the biggest contributors to this Magic team's championship. It can be said that if Su Jiu had not performed super gods in the playoffs, the Magic team would probably not even be able to step into the threshold of the finals.
On this day, all reports related to sports focused all their attention on the NBA finals.
When the Magic really won the championship, this undoubtedly changed the pattern in the league invisibly.
Because from now on, there will be another team in the league that has won the championship, and another super team that will probably have the ability to win the championship in the next few years.
In addition to Howard, who is currently at the peak of his career, he also has the "answer" to complete self-salvation in his twilight years of his career, and Su Jiu, who has just entered the league and became famous.
Some people say that the Magic Team's dynasty is quietly rising, while others say that the Magic Team can only be regarded as a flash in the pan.
But one thing is undeniable, that is, before the start of next season, this Magic team is destined to be the best choice among NBA fans...
…………
June 6.
On this day, the news about the Magic winning the NBA 08-09 season was completely pushed to a peak.
Before this, although the city of Orlando had experienced a large-scale sleepless night, the lively atmosphere of winning the championship had no intention of dissipating at all.
All the fans were starting to have a big carnival. Before the Magic organized the championship parade, many fans began to wear championship T-shirts privately, shouting in the middle of the road, and when they met someone, they would come over to celebrate together.
Some local tyrants even stood on the roof of the car and began to spread money around them frantically. While they were throwing money, they just wanted to hear the sound of Orlando champions coming from both sides of the street.
It can be said that from this time on, the atmosphere in Orlando has quietly changed.
If Orlando was just a city with an NBA team before, then at this moment, Orlando already has his own team culture and his own brilliant history.
For local fans in Orlando, there is an invisible spiritual pillar in their hearts.
Regardless of whether the Magic can still become the first ladder to compete for the championship in the next few seasons, this history of the team's championship will always be imprinted in the hearts of fans.
At this moment, while the outside fans were happily accepting and celebrating the Magic Team's championship, everyone in the Magic Team finally had a good night's sleep.
During this sleep, everyone woke up naturally, and they slept in the dark and relaxed.
Because last night, the owner of the Magic team had a luxurious reservation for a whole restaurant to celebrate the team's championship.
Just to let everyone celebrate with the staff, everyone drank very drunk last night, and didn't get drunk.
After all, at the beginning of the season, no one in this team, including the boss and head coach Stan Van Gundy, could have imagined that the Magic would miraculously win the NBA championship trophy.
It was precisely because before that the city of Orlando had no expectations at all that everyone became very crazy after the Magic won the championship.
Everyone, including the team owner Richard DeVos, was inevitably very crazy.
Even the mayor of Orlando has begun to prepare for the championship parade a few days later. After all, with the Magic's winning, this has greatly improved the consumption capacity of the city of Orlando in a short period of time.
Most importantly, Orlando's current mayor Freke is also a loyal fan of the Magic. He has basically reached the point where he will watch every game as long as he is not plagued by work.
So with the Magic's winning the championship, this downtown parade in Orlando will definitely not be simple.
Maybe this is not the craziest and most grandest time in NBA history, but it will definitely be the most memorable time in NBA history...
This time I woke up naturally. After Su Jiu woke up, I found that his room was in a mess, and he had even reached the point where he had nowhere to get on.
When Su Jiu turned around, he found Courtney Li and Iverson sleeping like a dead pig next to him.
Because Su Jiu's performance this season is too explosive, and Su Jiu's current contract is relatively cheap, once Su Jiu's contract expires, it will inevitably be snatched by other teams in the league.
In this case, in order to express his sincerity, the Magic management rented a very luxurious villa for Su Jiu as early as the late stage of the season.
Faced with this situation, even though Su Jiu repeatedly refused, the magic management resolutely handed the key to Su Jiu.
He also said that the house has been rented anyway and the key is in Su Jiu's hands, so it is completely casual to live in it or not.
As the Magic team forced the key to Su Jiu in this almost foolish way, Su Jiu was obviously a little amused.
Su Jiu knew very well that the reason why the Magic were so concerned about him was that he hoped to stay with the team after his contract expired.
Faced with this situation, although Su Jiu had never encountered it in his previous life, he had heard of it after all.
After all, although the NBA has been banning the team from having private contact with players on the surface, it is the so-called Yin-Yang contract and benefits gifts.
But in fact, in order to retain and win over players, the team often sends some very important gifts privately.
Among them, in addition to the Yin-Yang contract, there are also houses, cars and beauties. In this case, even if the alliance is very good at hand, it is impossible to dig them all clearly.
Of course, according to the Magic Team boss's intention, it would not be an exaggeration to give Su Jiu a villa in private. After all, compared with the personal potential that Su Jiu has shown so far, the money for a villa is simply slim to sign with the contract he can sign in the future.
However, once such a thing is discovered and exposed by reporters, the consequences will be very serious. After all, this completely violates the paper rules of the NBA Alliance.
At that time, not only will the Magic team be subject to huge fines, but even Su Jiu will also face a major penalty of ban and fines.
So in terms of measurement, when the owner of the Magic Team learned that Su Jiu was still living in a very small rental house, he rented a whole villa so that Su Jiu could move in.
Because in this way, Su Jiu can not only see the sincerity of the Magic Team management, but when the reporters discovered this, the Magic Team boss could also say that he rented a house for him to treat the employees.
After all, this is not a gift between house purchases and sales, and such things do not violate the alliance's paper rules.
So in the late season, Su Jiu moved into this very luxurious single villa at this moment.
When Courtney Li learned about this, he would often come to Su Jiu's residence to live together.
If Su Jiu and Lizi had not had some emotional scandals with some women, then the reporters would probably think that these two were a pair of gay men!!!
Because everyone in the Magic Team was too happy and too excited yesterday, after the team's group dinner, Li Zi, Su Jiu and Iverson came to Su Jiu's villa alone, and drank together completely unconscious.
As Su Jiu was forced to wake up by hunger, he found that he was the first person to wake up, because at this moment Iverson and Little Lizi were still sleeping there like dead pigs.
Looking at the two people who were still asleep deeply, Su Jiu just shook his head helplessly and did not wake them up.
After all, this long and tense season has just ended, and the players finally got a chance to have a complete rest during this time.
So when Su Jiu saw that the two of them were still sleeping, Su Jiu walked into the kitchen alone, and seemed to want to make some food.
Because several people drank two sessions last night and were very excited throughout the whole process, they didn’t eat anything about the staple food, and basically drank big sips in their empty stomach.
At that time, under the anesthesia of alcohol, Su Jiu did not feel anything wrong, but when he woke up, Su Jiu found that his stomach was really empty.
Even if he didn't eat something immediately, Su Jiu felt that he was going to die at any time.
"Bang! Dang!"
As Su Jiu tinkered with some food in the kitchen, when Su Jiu was in a good mood, he heard Iverson's voice coming from behind.
"Huh~, it's so early, why did you get up so early? I heard you jingling in the kitchen early in the morning. Those who know you think you are cooking, and those who don't know you think you are decorating."
Looking back at Iverson, who was obviously sleepy at the moment, Su Jiu felt a little funny. He kept moving in his hands, and then he pointed at Iverson at the sun outside the window without being angry.
"It's still early. Look at how big the sun is. It's afternoon soon."
"But then again, your alcohol content is really terrifying. By the way, you can drink so much?!"
Walking to the refrigerator, Iverson took out a bottle of milk from the refrigerator, then turned on the milk and drank it all, and then raised his eyebrows at Su Jiu with a slight pride.
"Himmer~"
"Haha, of course, if you want to say that you are better on the court than me, then I think there is definitely, but if you say that you are on the bar, then I think I will definitely be the man standing at the end!!"
Looking at Iverson's smug look, Su Jiu pretended to be disgusted. After skillfully pouring the fried eggs onto the plate, Su Jiu turned around and walked to the oven, as if he was baking some egg tarts.
"Don't brag about your little things to me. I've been with you for so long, and I haven't learned anything else, but I've learned the essence of bragging."
"I think if you could hold a big talk competition, then you would definitely be a well-deserved champion and you would be the kind of person who will be directly assigned to you as soon as the game starts!!"
After making fun of Iverson, Su Jiu obviously felt relieved.
Because since Iverson came to the team, Su Jiu and Iverson seem to have a very compatible personality. At least they communicate very closely in normal times, and they have basically become friends who can talk about everything.
"By the way, let's talk about some serious business. Your contract will expire next year. What are your plans?"
"Do you plan to retire if you succeed or stay for a few more seasons?"
While picking up the rag and wiping the oil stains splashed in the kitchen, Su Jiu turned his head and asked Iverson behind him.
"I haven't thought about it yet. Although I think it would be a better choice to retire directly, in my heart, I still want to continue to compete for a few more seasons."
To be continued...
