Chapter 500: Drunken Night

That night, the whole of Sacramento went completely crazy, from the homeless at the bottom of society, to the middle class in suits and leather shoes, and even many of Sathau's political and business tycoons also participated.

According to the media investigation after the incident, the entire city of Sa consumed more than three times as much alcohol on this night as usual, and almost all bars and nightclubs were out of stock.

When Blair Bowman won the Finals MVP trophy from League President Calvin, the "would-be veteran" who has been in the league for more than ten seasons finally couldn't hold back tears of excitement.

At this time, no one would have thought that the tears were a sign of Blair's weakness.

While there are many real veterans in the league who have also struggled for a championship ring for many years, some have made their wish, while many more have struggled.

But there aren't many who can stick to a team like Blair Bowman.

Moreover, Blair's own strength has been recognized by many people in the league, and his experience is actually more in line with people's adherence to morality.

Blair was speechless after receiving the trophy, but he went on to pull the likes of Turgun and Salehi on the podium.

In fact, in Blair's opinion, this Finals MVP trophy should be awarded to Turgon, if Turgun hadn't attracted most of the defensive attention, it is estimated that Blair would not have been able to score high points in the later games of the Finals.

But Blair thought that if Turgun alone was to be on the podium, he would make the rest of the team think differently, so he pulled almost everyone in the team on the podium.

"I want to thank a lot of people, but if I say it, I'm going to have to sleep here today."

Blair, who had wiped away his tears, finally returned to normal, and his speech began with a joke, which immediately diluted the weak image that Blair's crying had brought to many people.

"So, those who have been sarcastic, sarcastic, and laughed at me, I won't thank you today, because I need to thank my team-mates for my success today and my manager, Mr. Stone, for helping me."

"Thank you, Chief, we wouldn't be where we are today without your leadership, and I hope to work under you until you retire, if you will."

"Also thank you to my teammates, we are a team, although this trophy was given to me, there must be a share of yours."

"Thanks to my family for the support I have given me, I would not have been able to make it this far without you."

"Finally, thank you to the fans of Saatah City, it is you who have given us the courage to get to where we are today, it is your trust that has given us strength, and today, I will share this trophy with you."

Blair's words immediately ignited the entire Energy Pinnacle Arena, and although the game was over, most of the fans did not leave, and they were all waiting for the next championship award ceremony.

Next, it was the scene that all the supporters of the Runners were most looking forward to.

Wang Lei smiled and watched his players walk onto the podium with the shouts of the live DJ, and finally he also walked onto the podium under the smiling attention of Ma Dongmei.

Calvin, who is now the president of the alliance, shook hands cordially with Wang Lei.

"Thank you for your contribution to the league, young man, you have created a whole new style of basketball and a whole new era, and I want to pay tribute to you."

Calvin said that this is indeed a feeling, if there is no Wang Lei's arrival, it is estimated that the entire alliance is still struggling for profitability, but now with the opening of the huge market in the east, the alliance has seen a clear goal and direction.

At the same time, Wang Lei's run-and-bomb tactics have also attracted more viewers to the league, and now the league's ratings have shifted from some loyal middle-aged fans to young fans, young fans are more passionate and energetic, they are more willing to see exciting games, and at the same time, the consumption impulse of young fans is more violent than that of middle-aged fans, which means that the league will also have new interest growth points in the development of peripheral products.

"You've won the prize, Mr. Calvin, my players are not good enough, and I am not doing enough, I hope there will be more opportunities to communicate with you in the future."

"Haha, Oriental humility, Coach Stone, I believe this will not be the last time I will award you an award, there will definitely be more opportunities in the future."

For Calvin, he was the first in the league management to propose supporting the Runners, and he benefited from the Runners, so he will naturally take more care of the Runners in the future.

In the end, when Blair lifted the championship trophy again, the entire Energy Balance Arena was boiling again, and at the same time, in the distant Eastern Continent, many fans also saw this scene, they saw Wang Lei's talent and ability, and also saw the great changes he brought to the world basketball today.

After the award ceremony, team owner Francis Leonard held the championship trophy like a child, he didn't expect that he would be so rash to invite Wang Lei to gain so quickly.

When Francis was very young, he also saw other teams and other owners pick up the trophy on TV, and Francis thought that he would one day pick up the trophy as a player, but the reality is that Francis does not have much talent in basketball, on the contrary, he is very talented in business.

Now Francis's childhood dream has come true, and he, like Wang Lei, pinned his dream on others when he couldn't realize his set dream.

Wang Lei trains the players, while Francis believes in Wang Lei unconditionally, which makes them have a common identity.

Now their goals have been achieved, but Francis and Wang Lei also have no intention of ending there, Francis hopes that the trophy of the future championship can fill his collection room, and Wang Lei also hopes that he can leave a monument in this time and space.

Wang Lei, who returned to the locker room, was drenched with champagne by the carnival fans, and Wang Lei did not have the slightest politeness, and pushed Francis, who was still holding the trophy at the door, to front of him, and the players had some scruples.

But then Wang Lei took champagne and began to spray at Francis, Francis also made a willing look, holding the trophy to greet Wang Lei and the players to "celebrate" together.

The wine was so sweet that most of the wine was wasted by the celebratory runners, but they were inevitably drunk.
