After leaving the court on the day of the championship, the Trail Blazers players bought a lot of alcohol to take back to their hotel.

In Anjie and Morris's room, the Trail Blazers players gathered, drank wine, chatted and constantly took pictures with the "fake" O'Brien Cup.

Although this trophy is just a fake, the players know that the real one must have been put into the showroom of the Moda Center by the Trail Blazers staff at this moment. Originally, the league moved the O'Brien Cup to prepare for the big seven, but unexpectedly, the Trail Blazers laughed directly.

Drunk, everyone also started a video chat with George and Lillard in the middle of the night, although it was already two o'clock in the morning, George and Lillard, who were recuperating at home, were just as excited as Anjie and his group who were celebrating, and they couldn't sleep at all.

The two guys celebrated the victory with their teammates on their phones, and of course, they preferred to be there at this moment.

After drinking, the Trail Blazers fell asleep. They don't have to worry about whether they need to practice tomorrow, they don't have to worry about whether they need to play tomorrow, and they don't have to worry about whether the Cavaliers' small lineup will suddenly explode en masse outside the three-point line.

It's over, this long, short season is all over. And they became the winners who survived to the end......

Last summer, the Trail Blazers' operations in the free agent market caused an explosion in the world of public opinion. With a flashy lineup, the Trail Blazers' regular season performance did not disappoint.

Although the Trail Blazers have experienced injuries that have turned them from championship favorites to underdogs that even bookmakers don't like. But in the end, with the efforts of everyone who remained, the Trail Blazers still won the eventual victory.

They have lived up to anyone, and this O'Brien Cup is definitely worthy of that sensational summer. This O'Brien Cup has definitely taught a lesson to those who once looked down on the Trailblazers. Never, never, never underestimate the heart of a champion.

Despite the ups and downs, the 2017-2018 season of the Trail Blazers was undoubtedly a success. They beat one super team after another and eventually climbed to the top. The biggest winners are none other than them.

The Trail Blazers players slept in messy rooms like this, and at least tonight, they could sleep peacefully.

The next day, the Trail Blazers players didn't slowly wake up until noon. They were all thinking back to what they had been going through last night, and some of them even giggled involuntarily.

As soon as An Jie woke up, he was fully examined by the team doctor, but fortunately, this guy's knee was only sprained, and the structure was completely intact.

After getting the news, everyone on the Trail Blazers team also breathed a sigh of relief. Although the season is over, the Trail Blazers have won the championship. But if An Jie's knee is hit hard again, it will definitely affect his career.

Although it was only a sprain, An Jie was still unable to walk the next day because of the delay in treatment and excessive fatigue.

The team doctor couldn't help but joke with An Jie. "It seems that our MVP has to go back to accept the worship of the fans with his crutches."

As it turned out, when reporters surrounded the Trail Blazers at Cleveland's Hopkins International Airport, they were all startled by Angel on crutches. Looking at Anjie's struggling appearance of even walking, it's really hard to imagine that this guy is the same person as the guy who blocked James continuously yesterday.

Of course, only a handful of people were able to approach the Trail Blazers players and coaches under the help of airport security.

Rickard was stopped by a local Portland reporter and asked about Anjie's injury.

In front of the camera, Ricard first shook his head, his expression very lost. The reporter, who is also a fan of the Trail Blazers, was so frightened by his expression that his face turned pale.

"Ann's injury...... It's a pity......" Ricard added, touching his nose. "It's a shame to tell the other 29 teams in the league that Ann's injury is okay and that he will continue to be your nightmare next season!"

Looking at the reporter's expression, Riccard laughed heartily.

Rickard's humorous remarks made reporters feel like they were on a roller coaster. However, after learning that An Jie was fine, most people were relieved.

Also, if An Jie had suffered a major injury, he would not have staged such a wonderful heroic return scene yesterday. This Portland hero isn't going to fall so easily right now.

The cheerful Trail Blazers carry the O'Brien Cup and Bill. Russell's FMVP Trophy boarded the plane and left the land of Cleveland for their hometown of Portland.

Looking at Cleveland, which was gradually disappearing under the clouds, Anjie smiled and closed his eyes. Home, it's time to go home.

The sun was already very hot in mid-June, but at Portland International Airport, Wu Hua and other reporters could only wait under the scorching sun.

Because the Trail Blazers won the championship, reporters also have the privilege of going to the tarmac today, covering the whole process for the world when the heroes return home.

In addition to reporters, George, Lillard and Anjie's family members were also waiting on the tarmac. Catherine took the peaceful little hand and looked into the air expectantly.

On a hot summer day, the color of the sky is very beautiful. In addition to the bunch of people on the tarmac, Portland International Airport has been occupied by Trail Blazers fans. This is perhaps the most popular flight in Portland's history.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the huge roar of the plane finally sounded. Through the radio at the airport, people have learned that the one that is about to land now is the plane on which the Trail Blazers are flying in triumph.

Reporters set up long guns and short cannons, fans shouted excitedly, and Catherine and An Xiang couldn't help but laugh. The man in their hearts is coming back!

The plane landed slowly, and the sound of the camera "clicking" surrounded Catherine's ears.

"Is Daddy back?" An Xiang took Catherine's hand.

"That's right, Daddy is back!"

The plane came to a halt, the cabin doors opened, and the stairs had already been erected. Everyone was eagerly awaiting, waiting for the first person to step out of the cabin.

In the next second, a big man with a club, a Trail Blazers championship baseball cap and a commemorative T-shirt, holding an O'Brien Cup, was the first to walk out of the plane door.

"It's Ann! It's Ann! ”

"Welcome back!"

"Good guys! Well done! ”

An Jie had just come out, and the crowd at the scene was boiling. At this moment, the group of people on the tarmac had already put down the work at hand. At the moment, they are all die-hard Trail Blazers fans!

An Jie laughed and raised the O'Brien Cup in his hand, and the others poured out from behind An Jie one by one. This group of glorious sons of Portland finally appeared in front of people.

After that, An Jie slowly walked down the stairs. He shoved the O'Brien cup into Morris's arms behind him, and then walked straight to the two people in the crowd he cared about the most.

An Jie didn't speak, he threw away the crutches, took Catherine into his arms with one hand, and hugged An Xiang tightly with the other.

After that, more and more people stepped off the plane, and they also hugged their families and friends. The scene was jubilant, as perfect as Wu Hua imagined.

What happens after that is no longer important to An Jie. He satisfied the autographs of the fans, and did not refuse the invitation to take a group photo. As long as he can be with his family, An Jie is happy. What's more, this time, there is also the company of the O'Brien Cup?

The overall champion, finally back to their territory. At the end of the day, the Trail Blazers gathered again in the showroom of the Moda Center. The genuine, spotless O'Brien cup was lying in the display case. Next to it, there are three other golden trophies.

In just a few years, the originally empty showroom has been decorated with four championship trophies.

"Amazing achievement, guys, I'm so proud of you." Rickard looked at the four trophies in the glass case and felt that they were simply the most beautiful things in the world.

"It's not enough, there is more to be put in such a big showroom!" An Jie's words made everyone smile. These guys are all coming together to win a championship!

"Happy holidays, guys." An Jie hugged his family and turned to everyone and smiled. This smile is as sunny as when he was twenty years old.

yes, the holidays have arrived. The O'Brien Cup afterward? Let's talk about it next season. Now, Anjie just wants to enjoy her time with her family.

Another summer day destined for perfection, another day to celebrate.

Happy holidays, Anjie.
