The party was so enjoyable that the Knicks held another championship parade the next day.

James Dolan is the least short of money, and the parade is very grand, which is more lively than the New Year. In the morning, fans poured into Manhattan via the subway and the Long Island Railroad, and the subway cars were filled with the cheers and laughter of the fans, and more than 100,000 people participated in the victory parade. The number of fans is expected to be much larger than the number of other teams in the last 10 years when they won the championship.

The parade began at 11 a.m. Two-thirds of New York's police force is out to maintain order and ensure traffic. Police cars with flags open the way, followed by bands. As the procession passed through the office building, people looked out of office windows and threw confetti.

The weather is very good today, the sky is clear and cloudless, and the fly in the ointment is that the temperature is slightly higher. Knicks players board floats and receive cheers from fans on the streets of downtown Manhattan.

New York Mayor Bloomberg was also delighted with the Knicks' victory, saying, "The Knicks have given us a season to remember, and we're going to put on a parade to make them unforgettable." ”

The parade lasted about an hour, and at around 12:30 p.m., the team returned to Madison Square Garden, where the players, coaches and guests took a break to join the championship celebration.

The Knicks coaching staff, management and players took the stage one by one for interviews, and the big screen in the middle showed the highlights of the individual season, and the good things continued. Even Stephenson has a bright spot, he is always the most active one when he sits on the sidelines, and every time his team-mates score a goal, he jumps into the sky and cheers.

Parsons, Gallinari, Anderson, and Zhou Xuan are very eye-catching when the four handsome guys appear together, and the screams of the fans are also edited.

I don't know whose idea it was, but Kolorez, who wore the No. 99 jersey, was also edited into the video. She stole the spotlight countless times, and after Zhou Xuan scored, she sold cuteness with exaggerated expressions on the sidelines, officially surpassing director Spike Lee to become the new mascot of the Knicks.

When Zhou Xuan was interviewed, the shouts reached a climax, and the host said: "Let's welcome the ball control mage in New York!" ”

The audience responded with applause, shouting and chanting "MVP" together! Zhou Xuan only said one sentence when he spoke, which made the fans cheer even more enthusiastically. The phrase was - "I want to play for New York forever until I retire!" ”

It was as if one had seen the beginning of the New York dynasty.

Zhou Xuan's parents also attended the celebration, and sitting in the stands, Martha lamented: "I didn't expect our son to become an American hero one day." ”

Zhou Gaozhuo smiled: "I have a hunch that he will soon become a hero in China when he participates in the Olympic Games in the summer." ”

The excitement of the players may last for at least a month, but Zhou Xuan has to start recuperating and preparing for the Olympics.

That night, he received a call from Hu Jiashi, deputy director of the basketball management center, congratulating him on winning the championship, and asking him when he would return to China, and sending special personnel to greet him. Everything is a high salary and high indicators, and the hotel is the same as when Kobe, James and others visited China.

Zhou Xuan said: "Don't be so troublesome, I will meet with the team as soon as possible, participate in training and be with the players, such as arranging Yi Jianlian to share a room with me." ”

"That's fine, I'll arrange it." Hu Jiashi is very happy that the Basketball Association attaches great importance to this Olympic Games and requires results. Pay special attention to having a good relationship with Zhou Xuan. However, the difference may be uncomfortable for other players. It would be better for Zhou Xuan to offer to live with the players. This call is to probe the wind, and the Basketball Association is very afraid that Zhou Xuan will play a big name, and they can't control it.

The reason why the Basketball Association is worried is because tennis star Li Na plays a big name. At the press conference after the 2012 Confederations Cup women's tennis team, Li Na spoke coldly to the Chinese media and did not cooperate with the interview, and the press conference almost ended in an unhappy manner.

When the athlete's fame reaches a certain level, there is a situation where the media and the Sports Bureau are not birded. But Zhou Xuan will definitely not do that, there are so many Chinese, as long as the reporter adds oil and vinegar, one person can drown people with a mouthful of foam. Zhou Xuan will not affect his image for some meaningless trivial things. He planned to share the house with Yi Jian, and discussed it with Yao Ming. Yao Ming is experienced, so naturally there is no need to worry. If Yi Jianlian is not encouraged, it is difficult to say the state. The most critical part of China's victory and defeat is Yi Jianlian, and Zhou Xuan can't think of anyone else who is suitable for playing high blocking. In the Mavericks, Yao Ming often encouraged Yi Jianlian, but the effect was not particularly good, and Zhou Xuan's psychology was more suitable for this job.

"Do you have any other requirements?" Hu Jiashi asked.

"No, I'll just do it like everyone else. The run-in time is too short, and I have to communicate with everyone more. "Zhou Xuan used the training camp as a military camp, this is to go on an expedition, and the generals and soldiers can buy people's hearts by eating and living together. At this time, he treated the big names in the CBA as small soldiers.

"Really? Do you want to say a few things to keep in mind? The staff pays attention to your habits or something. And do you have anything to bring back to your home, do you want to send a car to pull the items? Hu Jiashi asked again. For him, it's called watertightness.

"Hearing you say this, how can I have the feeling that this king wants to inspect the world, and if he is a loyal minister, he will come with me? Thank you for being attentive and considerate, but I really don't need to. "Zhou Xuan thought about precautions? Or you don't watch the game and don't go to Europe, your name is a bit unlucky, I don't want to play overtime.

Zhou Xuan called Yi Jianlian and asked him about his recent situation.

Yi Jianlian said: "Brother Yao and I are in good shape, just waiting for you." You'll need to pass the ball then. ”

"No problem. You know the coach's phone, right? I'd like to have a call with him and talk about ideas. Zhou Xuan said.

"Yes. I'll text you in a moment. ”

Zhou Xuan said: "Also, I and the people from the Basketball Association suggested that I share a room with you when it comes to talking, do you have no opinion?" We can talk about tactics, if you have a teammate who is particularly good and wants to sleep together, I can change it, in case someone is jealous, it's not good. ”

A crow flew over Yi Jianlian's head. "No one is jealous, we don't do ...... here"

Zhou Xuan felt the need to talk to Deng Huade about tactics.

There are a lot of singles in the Chinese national team's games, so many people feel that the Chinese team's tactics are useless. Zhou Xuan has seen that Deng Huade's tactics are actually more flexible. Compared to Younas's ever-changing Yao Ming singles, throwing a three-pointer from the outside after attracting a bag, or shooting a three-point shot after a 45-degree cover, Deng Huade's system is based on the idea that every player participates in the offense and can be the end of the offense at any time.

And the interior players' off-ball screens, small-area mutual screens, air cuts, and a wide range of three-pointers around the baseline, or 45-degree cross-screens on the inside, are not uncommon in every game.

Under the mature and terrifying defensive system developed by modern basketball, under the strong defensive pressure and efficient defensive rotation of European teams, it is already a tactical success to be able to cause a small range of one-on-one misplaced singles. In the finals, the Knicks vs. the Thunder, the main reason for winning was also the misplaced singles. The Chinese team can't win because the individual ability is not strong enough, which is difficult for any coach to improve.

Zhou Xuan made a phone call. Deng Huade picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number, and asked, "Hello, who is it?" ”

"Hello, Coach Bob, I'm Zhou Xuan."

Deng Huade smiled and said: "Hello, I heard that you are going to participate in the training camp in the near future, why do you have my phone?" ”

"Asked the teammates. I've just finished the finals and have some things to prepare in the U.S., so I want to talk to you about it before I report it. ”

"Okay."

Whether a coach can do a good job mainly depends on the results. If there are no achievements, no matter how much you preach the iron-blooded spirit, it will be in vain to talk about it on paper. Zhou Xuan was willing to participate in international competitions, and Deng Huade's confidence was immediately sufficient. Just finished the finals, if Zhou Xuan is absent from the Olympics to rest, no one can say anything, after all, it is too tiring. Not only the people of the Basketball Association, but the head coach did not dare to put on a stand in front of a double MVP like Zhou Xuan. Coaching one of the best players in the world is something that no one can ever do.

Zhou Xuan also has a certain understanding of Deng Huade, and after watching his news in the past two years, he generally knows that this person has a lot of character. After chatting for a while, they talked very much. Being able to communicate with Chinese players in English without any barriers, Deng Huade also feels very happy. It's also important to have a good interpreter when it's time to play. Zhou Xuan is here, and it will be easier to convey his tactical ideas.

Deng Huade is good at rebellious thinking, good at breaking conventions, unique, unconventional, and good luck often comes to him. Every card he played caused a major earthquake, causing strife and unrest to the internet, the media and fans. This time, his men are strong.

Zhou Xuan's understanding of tactics is also better than Deng Huade imagined, and he will immediately copy several sets of classic tactics of the Knicks on the phone, and let the players actively cooperate with Zhou Xuan.

Deng Huade was very clever and directly discarded some of the past tactics. With Zhou Xuan and Yao Ming here, it would be nonsense to let Yi Jianlian, Chen Jianghua, Liu Wei and others play alone. Tactics for the stars are a must.

After the call, in the morning training session, Deng Huade not only arranged Yao Ming's low-post receiving singles and strategies, but also let Chen Jianghua and Yi Jianlian try the air cut of the high-post off-ball cover, as well as the singles of the weak side of the defender. In the Olympics, China will focus on blocking and demolition and eagle attack.

During the break, Yao Ming chatted with Yi Jianlian.

"Zhou Xuan called you?"

"I did, he said he wanted to share a room with me." Yi Jianlian said.

Yao Ming smiled: "This kid is a man of God, you have to listen to his advice more." Anderson played so well with the Knicks, you're sure to learn too. ”

"I know, I've listened to him practice three points for the past year, isn't it also a little effective?" Yi Jianlian smiled bitterly.

"This Olympics is also about whether you can stay in the NBA and play at a high level! We all believe that you are critical. Yao Ming patted Yi Jianlian on the back and said with a straight face.

Relying on Yao Ming and Zhou Xuan, the Chinese group can qualify, and if you want to get good results, you have to look at the role players.
