Chapter 309 2002~2003 NBA Championship! (Ask for a commuter pass!) )

Jordan was sighing, the game was going on, and the Wizards were slowly unable to parry.

Jordan can play smart, but without the full-court output he did in the last game, he wasn't good enough to help the Wizards win.

Yao Ming faced the immaturity of the bag, Hamilton's functional singleness, and Mobley's ceiling was not high...... It's all shown in the game.

The general trend of the game was determined at the beginning of the game.

Although that wave of small climaxes once gave Wizards fans hope, Sun Hao's wave of scoring made hope extinguished in an instant.

And Sun Hao's performance is far more than that.

G6 Son didn't appear in the previous game against the Spurs, but ended up playing the whistle against the Wizards.

Jordan spent more time looking at the ball and sighing.

After all, this is no longer his time.

Although he felt that Sun Hao had been able to "inherit" him, he would inevitably feel a little sad.

Halfway through the fourth quarter of the game, Sun Hao scored 32 points, and the score on the court had increased to 20 points.

This score, the result is decided.

Van Gundy began to take the initiative to replace the main team, and hugged the players one by one when they came off the field.

Although they didn't lead this team to the championship in the end, they were able to reach the Finals and play 2-4 with the Mavericks, and they didn't perform badly.

The old Nelson also replaced the bench.

The fans all stood up in unison after seeing this, their faces full of excitement, cheers and whistles.

With the remaining half quarters played, the Mavericks are ready for their championship moment!

"We want Michael! We want Michael! ”

At this moment, some fans were chanting Jordan's name.

There is no suspense about the outcome of the game, and the finals of the 2002~2003 season will also end here.

In other words, tonight will be Jordan's last dance in the NBA.

They also wanted to take one last look at Jordan's performance.

Jordan didn't respond at first, this kind of game where the winner is divided, he has no need to go up, and there is no point.

But the cheers grew louder and louder, until finally the whole audience was chanting.

Jordan finally stood up.

At this time, his appearance has nothing to do with the outcome of the game, but only to fulfill the last wish of [so many] fans.

When he saw Jordan on the court, the members of the Mavericks, including Sun Hao, also stood up and applauded him.

The youth of a generation finally ushered in the final curtain call.

Luckily, they were able to watch Jordan dance again.

Jordan re-entered the game, and the ball was quickly in his hands.

At this time, it was Finley, one of Jordan's successors.

Jordan knew that his knees were not good, so he didn't choose the face frame, but chose the back frame to attack.

Leaning on his body, he also felt Finley's center of gravity, and finally suddenly turned around and leaned back.

I don't know if it was the cheers of the away fans that made him a little excited, he completely shook off Finley this time and shot the familiar backwards.

"Huh!"

With the crisp sound of entering the net, the ball goes into the net!

The scene erupted in cheers and whistles.

To be able to see Jordan's trademark back-up in the final moments, they have no regrets!

Jordan wanted to play two balls and go down, but he found that his body felt like it came and he played it all the way to the end.

And he dared to work hard, scoring 10 points in a single quarter in the fourth quarter, allowing his full-court score to reach 20+.

When the final whistle blew, the fans who had already stood up at the scene burst into a sea of cheers.

It's Jordan's last dance, and it's the final ending.

The Mavericks won their NBA championship!

The Mavericks' players on and off the court have already begun to celebrate.

There were also many fans on the sidelines who poured into the stadium.

A championship moment for the Dallasians!

Nowitzki leaned over and hugged Sun Hao, patting each other on the back.

After three seasons, they finally did it!

If they could, they would now be shouting: Do you know how we've spent the past three years?!

Bodi Loga looked more composed.

To him, it seemed like it was just one of his many championships.

He is always on the road to winning the championship ~ changing teams ~ winning the championship.

And in the first year, he was the best rookie and the best champion, a real winner in life.

However, at this time, the most excited was neither them, nor Dampier who kept shouting "I am the second center in the league", or even Raga Bell who was running around the stadium excitedly, but Barkley.

Yes, Lord Ba was excited at this time as if he had just done something, his face flushed, and he kept shouting and shouting at the people around him.

This championship is really important to him!

He's not hugging, after Sabonis was reimbursed for the season, he entered the Mavericks rotation, and he averaged 10+ minutes per game from the Western Conference to the finals.

Such a championship is earned by his own hard work.

From now on, he will no longer have to be ridiculed by Kenny Smith's champion, he can straighten his back in front of Jordan from now on, and he will never have to appear in the list of "uncrowned kings" again!

Of course, it's not just Barkley, it's everyone else on the Mavericks who is celebrating.

You may not believe it, but no one has ever tasted a championship before on this Mavericks team!

The elder Curry, now holding his two sons, especially the eldest son, Curry, is already smiling from ear to ear.

He chose to come to Dallas to fight for another year in order to fulfill his eldest son's wishes, which was really the most correct choice he had ever made in his life;

Sabonis, although injured in the Western Conference final against the Spurs, "Roof of the World" also got a championship ring before retiring;

Howard Easley, the story king of this team, Sun Hao's guide when he first entered the NBA, also won the championship with the team, and in a sense his career has been more successful than Nash;

Van Exel, Adrian Griffin, Nahura......

They are all collectively broken!

Of course, it's not just the players who are excited.

Old Nelson, crying with joy directly!

It is said that he has been sharpening a sword for 20 years, and he has been sharpening for more than 20 years!

This championship is hard to come by!

And finally, he can send a message to Popovich later.

"Greg, I heard I can't win the championship my way?!"

Cuban also jumped onto the field early, excited not at all like a boss, but just an avid fan.

Even he, together with Nowitzki, found a barrel full of champagne from somewhere, and when old Nelson was not paying attention, he directly gave the old man a "Daigo empowerment"!

Of course, there are also fans, and the National Route Center Arena at this time is really like a boiling ocean!

The first championship in the history of the Dallas team!

Witness the legend!

……

On the other side of the court, the Wizards didn't leave the court right away.

Van Gundy gathered his team together and said words of encouragement.

Jordan wasn't among them at this time.

He stood some distance from his teammates, watching the celebrating Mavericks intently.

He suddenly remembered what Sun Hao had said before in order to provoke him.

Michael never hit a tie-break.

He really didn't make a robbery in the end......

It's just that the difference is that he won the first six times, but lost the seventh.

The number seven is sometimes really metaphysical.

The short celebration over there ended for the time being, and the two teams had to complete the final handshake.

"The future is yours."

When Jordan shook hands with Sun Hao, he gave the latter a deep hug.

“……”

Sun Hao didn't expect Jordan to come to this sentence.

It's just that unlike Duncan's slight joke, Jordan's words are true.

His NBA journey has come to an end here, and the future belongs to the era of young people.

And Sun Hao defeated him to reach the top, and he is undoubtedly one of the best in the generation at the beginning of the century.

Even judging from the performance in the finals alone, that one can be removed.

After the handshake, Jordan did not immediately go back to the locker room with the others, but sat on the bench on the sidelines and waited.

The Mavericks returned to the locker room to change into their championship clothes, and the scene began to set up for the championship awards.

Stern saw that Jordan was still there and went over to chat with him for a while.

The two seasons of Jordan's comeback have played a huge role in promoting the NBA, including this Finals.

If it weren't for Jordan, Sun Hao and Nowitzki alone would obviously not be able to achieve this ratings effect.

That's why Jordan didn't see the league publicly.

No one is perfect, and when you accept the shortcomings of some people, you will find that most people actually have a successful side.

"Will you stay in Washington?"

While chatting, Stern also expected what would happen after Jordan retired.

"Yes, but I'm going to give myself a vacation."

Jordan patted his knee as he spoke.

The pre-match rumours about his knee injury were true, and the team doctor advised him not to play.

But his heart wouldn't allow him to do that, so he beat it anyway.

The consequence of the fight is that I am afraid that he will have to rest for a while before he can come out.

Otherwise, his walking may be affected for the rest of his life.

Stern smiled and nodded.

There's nothing wrong with Jordan staying with the Wizards.

If possible, it would be better to become the owner of the Wizards in the future.

The league needs topicality, and Jordan is the best topic.

At this moment, the staff reminded him that the award ceremony was about to start, and after greeting Jordan, he also got up and walked to the center of the stage.

The fans who had poured into the stadium had all returned to their seats.

Although the game was over, no fans left the stadium, but some fans from outside the stadium sneaked in, making the National Route Center arena even more crowded.

However, that doesn't matter, because the award ceremony is what you want in this atmosphere!

The Mavericks re-emerge from the players' tunnel.

They have already put on T-shirts embroidered with the logo of the championship on their chests, put on hats that belong to the championship, and stepped out of the footsteps that belong to the championship!

When they appeared, the cheers of the scene could not be stopped at all.

That's their championship team!

Sun Hao felt the enthusiasm of the fans and waved in response.

When he first came to Dallas, he did feel uncomfortable because of some of the racist issues here.

But when he didn't pay attention to those and focused on the stadium, he found that Dallas was the most enthusiastic place for fans in the country.

The team members were guided to stand in the center of the stage.

Stern picked up the microphone and made some opening remarks.

"We've seen the gods of basketball come to an end with a whole bunch of legends, and we've seen a great team come after that, and without a doubt, it's the best Finals ever!"

Of course, Stern will mention Jordan, only this time the basketball god did not become the protagonist, but only a foil.

"The 2003 NBA championship was ...... Dallas Mavericks! ”

When Stern officially announced the result, the National Route Center was once again in a state of flux, and it was the climax of the post-tournament.

Knowing the result is not the same as the official announcement.

It's like when you go to a hotel with your sister, only the moment the hotel room is closed is the time that really makes your blood boil.

After Stern, Bill Russell, the Lord of the Rings, handed Cuban the trophy that belonged to the championship.

Cuban kissed and handed it to the elder Nelson behind him, and the elder Nelson took a picture before handing it to the team member behind him.

The team members kissed one by one, this era is not 2020, don't worry about infection or anything, the glory will be over!

In the end, Nelson Sr. and Cuban stood in the middle with trophies in their hands, and Nowitzki got a lot of champagne from nowhere.

Before the photo was taken, the Mavericks players were already secretly shaking in the back.

As soon as the photo shoot began, they all took it out and sprayed it forward towards Nelson Sr. and Cuban.

The dodging of Cuban and Nelson Sr. was frozen by the photographer.

This photo is incomparably precious.

Of course, a photo is definitely not enough, you and your wife hold the trophy for one, and my son and I also come for one.

For the players, this is the most cherished moment of their lives.

At this time, the final award was being selected.

FMVP, also known as the Most Valuable Player of the Finals.

The selection of FMVP is different from the selection of MVP, he comes more rude and simple.

11 mainstream media, a total of 11 votes, and the person with the most votes is FMVP.

There is still some suspense about the ownership of FMVP.

There are actually only three people who are likely to get this award.

Nowitzki, Sun Hao, and Jordan.

Jordan will appear on this list, on the one hand, Jerry West has been elected MVP of the losing side in history, and on the other hand, it is naturally feelings and performance.

Jordan has averaged 25.2 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game, shooting 45% from the field and 100% from three-point range (1 shot).

Such a performance is undoubtedly historic for a 40-year-old veteran.

Because of the successive stimulation of Sun Hao and the fans, Jordan can really be said to have gushed out all his last energy, and there is not a drop left.

So he also has a certain chance of being elected.

Of course, compared with Jordan, the probability of Nowitzki and Sun Hao is obviously greater.

Because not only this Finals, but the past whole season, they have made the league feel that they are growing and strong.

This glory, naturally, should belong to them, one of the two. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
