"Meng, is what you said to those media yesterday true?" On February 17, 2008, the day of the All-Star Game, Meng Xu, who had not yet gotten up, was blocked in bed by a large group of people such as Kobe, James, Wade, etc., and asked him whether what he said to the media yesterday was a momentary gaffe, or if he really had such a plan.

"What did I say?" Meng Xu, who was still sleeping in a daze, was a little confused for a while after seeing the large group of people gathered in front of his bed, what could he say, so that they could block himself in such a way.

"Look at this." After seeing that Meng Xu was still a little confused, Kobe Bryant directly threw the newspaper in his hand to Meng Xu.

"That's it." Picking up the copy of the New York Times that Kobe Bryant threw over, and after taking a general look at the headlines in the sports section, Meng Xu rubbed his eyes and said to the people in front of him: "I said it, what's wrong?" ”

"Want to retire after winning the championship? Dream your dreams!" After getting Meng Xu's affirmative answer, Kobe's attitude changed directly, and after scolding Meng Xu angrily, he slammed the door directly.

"BOSS, ARE YOU STIMULATED BY SOMETHING?" After Kobe Bryant left, Meng Xu's room instantly became cold, and after waiting for a long time, Dwyane Wade asked Meng Xu softly, and Chris Paul and Andre Iguodala, who were behind Wade, also looked at Meng Xu with the same expression as Wade.

"What can I get stimulated by is that I feel less and less motivated, in the past, I was hungry to compete, I wanted to win, but when you find that everything is at your fingertips, it feels like everything is becoming more and more meaningless."

"Pretend!" After Meng Xu finished speaking, everyone at the scene was silent again, and Anna's voice sounded in Meng Xu's ears, Meng Xu's words could be said to be pretending to be Hongguoguo.

"Okay, it's just a retirement, so you guys feel like you're giving me a memorial service, you're all happy, and there's a big dinner waiting for you in the evening." Seeing that the group of people in front of him all looked depressed, Meng Xu was also angry, what kind of expressions did they have one by one, and they didn't know which old-timer they were holding a memorial service.

"Alright, alright, it's all gone, I haven't woken up yet." Stretching out his arm and waving at them, Meng Xu pulled up the quilt and covered his head again.

After Meng Xu got into the quilt, everyone in the room left one after another, but Meng Xu, who had been awakened, didn't feel sleepy at all, and recalled everything that happened yesterday in the quilt with his eyes open.

Due to the increasingly mediocre All-Star Slam Dunk Contest, the NBA League invited a few old bacon to participate in this year's All-Star Slam Dunk Contest this season, and finally Meng Xu won this year's All-Star Slam Dunk Contest with two 49-point dunks, and also became the oldest All-Star dunk king in NBA history.

And after the All-Star Game of the day was over, Meng Xu was blocked by many media outside the player tunnel, originally Meng Xu thought they would ask some, congratulations on winning the honor of slam dunk king. Or how do you feel about being the oldest dunk king, but the first question that came up to the New York Times reporter was: Meng, if you won the championship this season, would you choose to retire?

Meng Xu can't forget the GB reporter until now, with a smug expression on his face after asking the question, since Meng Xu said that the number of champions surpassed Jordan's retirement in the third year, these reporters from the New York Times jumped out every now and then to remind Meng Xu and wanted to embarrass Meng Xu.

"Of course I'll keep my word." Meng Xu, who secretly scolded MMP in his heart, still answered the question of the GB reporter with a smile on his face, and then directly squeezed through the crowd and returned to more consciousness.

Although under the constant speculation of the New York Times, it has become a commonplace topic for the number of champions to surpass Jordan, but Meng Xu has really reached the point where the number of champions may exceed Jordan, if the Pacers win the championship this season, then Meng Xu, like Jordan, will create two dynasties, and it is even more terrifying 7 years and 6 championships, so when Meng Xu was interviewed by many reporters, he said very accurately that he would keep his original promise. The news that Meng Xu might choose to retire after the end of the season immediately made the headlines in the sports section of most newspapers.

After Meng Xu's words became the focus of public opinion on the day of the All-Star Game, even the limelight of the All-Star Game was covered for a while, and He Hui, as Meng Xu's agent, has now become the busiest of all NBA star agents, from NBA President David Stern, to Pacers owner Simon Brothers, and then to many sponsors, all of whom have called to inquire about the authenticity of this matter.

However, in this "Meng Xu retirement" turmoil, there are also a lot of countercurrents, the Lakers' star Kobe Bryant, and the Cavaliers' star LeBron James, said in an interview with reporters that they will not let Meng Xu retire from this league so easily, after all, the premise of Meng Xu's retirement is to win this season's championship, and whether the Pacers can win this season's championship is still unknown.

"The Pacers are a strong team, but they have lost a number of key players this season, so they will not be as easy as last year in the playoffs this season, and the Cavaliers, Celtics, may keep them out of the Finals, so I think it's a bit too early to talk about Meng retiring after winning the championship." After entering the league, James, who held the title of Meng Xu's successor, undoubtedly did not want Meng Xu to retire like this, because James has not yet realized his desire to defeat Meng Xu when he entered the league, so James's first thought after reading the newspaper was to eliminate the Pacers in this season's playoffs.

"LeBron said it well, and that's my opinion, even if Meng's team makes it out of the East, I'm going to let me know that the era of his rule is over, and he wants to win this season's championship and retire? There are no doors!" Compared with LeBron James, Kobe Bryant was not so subtle when he was interviewed, Kobe Bryant wanted to defeat Meng Xu more than James, so he would never allow Meng Xu to retire before losing to himself.
