For Wu Di, today is a day that makes him excited, but it is also a sad and sad day.

The series was over, it ended in a different way, and as an O'Brien Cup contender, he really didn't know how he was going to deal with it.

Wu Di felt sad, he felt that the series should not be like this, and the ending was very different from what he expected.

MIC's low sobs resonated with him, and when he hid the tears, the reporters at the scene captured the shot with ease.

"Look, the big boy is in tears, is he too much to bear such a result?"

"He's done well enough, and we should expect more from him to grow, shouldn't we?"

"These are the tears of a hero, the tears left after all the hard work, not only should he not be ridiculed, but he should be admired, and from the whole playoffs, he is a hero."

Countless voices suddenly overflowed, and what they expressed was that they were more optimistic about Wu Di.

Of course, there are some people who have made up their minds at this time.

"After this trip to the finals, I think it's going to be very difficult for him to get back on the stage."

In fact, there is some truth to this voice, and the reason why this year's Wizards were able to reach the finals is that his own luck still plays a big role.

What's more, in the NBA, a major league, if a team wants to reach the Finals, it needs not only strength, but also strong luck.

Moreover, with so many teams with different characteristics competing for two places, the difficulty can be imagined.

In fact, Wu Di should be satisfied, although he failed to get the championship ring as he wished, but for a player like him, his rookie season is already extremely perfect. In the history of the NBA, so many superstars have more or less regrets on the stage of the Finals, and even some superstars have not even tasted the Finals. So, for a historic Chinese rookie, this season has been perfect enough. ”

"He's proven his ability and he's proven to have potential for the future, so all he should do is forget about the finals and grow quickly."

These voices are a fair view, and for a player who is playing in the NBA for the first time, looking at the table throughout the season, it is really perfect enough.

Best Sixth Man, Best Rookie First Team, Rookie Game MVP...... A lot of accolades have been placed in place for his future, and all he needs to do is do exactly what he says now: stay healthy and grow up.

The most impressive thing for fans is Wu Di's goal in the last two minutes of the game, which has to be said to be a historic perfect dunk.

In the words of many mainstream media, it was a slam dunk that tended to perfection in terms of power, movement, coordination, softness, and aesthetics.

This dunk left an indelible impression in the hearts of all people who like the NBA, and even, not long after the birth of this dunk, no one can shake the best dunk shot in the 02~03 season.

Subsequently, some retired superstars have commented on the ball on the Internet and in the media, and all the evaluations revolve around Wu Di's potential, and the results of the comments are all positive.

Such a shot, even if the person who was blocked is not a famous player, it is the undisputed dunk of the season. However, when the slammed person becomes a future Hall of Famer Tim Duncan, then its significance is difficult to overestimate.

"It was a good dunk and I was just trying to stop him, but unfortunately I didn't think he would choose that dunk. I failed to intercept and I admit it was a great dunk. While celebrating the championship, Duncan, who was interviewed, said truthfully.

Of course, Wu Di can see this interview, in fact, he knows very well in his heart that this ball will have an incomparably great impact on Duncan's heart, at least, Wu Di is confident that he has left an indelible impression in the heart of this cute boy.

As for Duncan's kind of evaluation, Wu Di only thinks it is public relations talk.

He could clearly remember the wonderful change in the expression on Duncan's face after he completed the dunk. It was then that he learned that no one was a heart of stone. This Duncan will also have emotional fluctuations when he is hit by a huge shock, at least from this dunk, he saw disbelief, anger and even horror in Duncan's eyes......

Of course, the superstars have a different way of fighting back.

Wu Di clearly remembers what Duncan said in his ear when the players left the game at the end of the game.

"The future is yours."

At first glance, such a voice sounded very encouraging, but after a closer look, Wu Di could see that something was wrong.

He's going to be 22 next season, and when a 27-year-old inside lineman says something like that to himself, it sounds weird.

Considering the "longevity" gap between outside and interior players, the future seems very far away.

The future belongs to me? How long will it take to be considered the future? Wu Di laughed coldly in his heart, this cute big man really has something to say.

However, after experiencing this failure, Wu Di made a lot of determination to himself in his heart.

He doesn't like people talking to him like that, he wants to be in charge of his own destiny, he wants to be the benchmark for everyone, he wants to return to the finals, he wants to lift the O'Brien Cup.

Especially when he saw the whole Spurs team laughing around the golden trophy, this desire in Wu Di's heart became stronger and stronger.

For the media, the eventual winner is the focus, and Wu Di's attention revolves around that unique way of leaving (the perfect last-minute shut-in Duncan).

But that attention didn't last long, and the world started to revolve around this year's championship, the San Antonio Spurs.

The biggest focus was on Tim Duncan, with the Spurs' eventual win that cost him the second championship of his career, and the second time he won the Finals MVP.

Judging by what Tim Duncan has achieved this year, he is the king of the season, regular season MVP, Finals MVP, and championship...... Three crowning honors have made him one of the league's top insiders.

And, more importantly, in the second trip to the Finals of his career, he averaged 27.2 points, 16.0 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 3.3 blocks per game, and his strong interior dominance made his status in the league begin to rise.

However, a large part of his focus also comes from the negative.

I have to say that such a powerful inside player was completed by Wu Di by mistake, which is really terrifying.

It can be said that the higher Duncan's career achievements, the greater Wu Di's fame will be.

However, the impact of a ball can only be a temporary hero, and if you want to be a lifetime hero, then you can only embellish yourself with countless honors and successes.

For Wu Di, it was clear to him that his debut season was completely over.

In fact, thinking about it the other way around, his real regret is just that he didn't win the championship. As a rookie, he's had an exciting and fulfilling season, and he's already at the top of his rookie class.

And what's next?

Wu Di thought about it, and it seemed that there was only rest.

After he had rested enough, he thought about doing something else.

The meeting with Jordan was also on the night of the end of the finals.

It was a unique and nostalgic night with basketball god Michael Jordan and him for an all-night conversation.

During this period, Wu Di tried to make a comprehensive and detailed evaluation of Jordan with a perfect life, and the information obtained also gave him a new understanding and understanding of the ability division of basketball players in this world.

Indeed, as Magic Johnson said, Jordan himself is in a position, and below that position are the people of them.

Jordan's personal details perfectly interpret the strength of an athlete, not only in terms of combat power, but also in the strength of talent attributes that Wu Di can hardly imagine.

With such a new understanding, Wu Di finally has a final direction to work towards, that is, the position above the golden player, and he hopes to reach that level one day.

Of course, there is also the series of terrifying talents that Jordan has, which not only made Wu Di realize the gap between other players in the league and Jordan, but also made Wu Di's heart feel endless excitement. Motivation comes from pressure, and under this kind of benchmark beyond cognition, Wu Di knows how much room an athlete has for growth.

Of course, some of the chats between Wu Di and Jordan revolved around basketball topics, and Jordan admitted that he wanted to trade Wu Di many times throughout the season, and several times he was even close to completing the transaction, but Wu Di used his own table to dispel Jordan's thoughts.

This kind of frank remarks gave Wu Di a new understanding of Jordan's personality.

Wu Di asked him if he would be given up if he was injured.

Jordan said yes.

"If I don't play as well as I do now, will you still trade me?"

Jordan: "Yes." ”

"Why?"

Jordan: "I'm the general manager of the team, and I have to make sure that every thing is good. And this is the Business League, and everything I do is for the future of the team. Even if I like you immensely, I won't give you preferential treatment. ”

"The purpose of your chat with me? Or the original intention? ”

Jordan: "I want you to recognize the nature of this league, and you have to be strong and develop a strong character at all times. I look forward to your future and will follow you all the way. ”

……

"Michael, remember? I said I was going to help you, and now, I came very close to that goal, but in the end I failed. ”

Jordan shook his head with satisfaction, it turned out that the young man who claimed to be able to help him in college had exceeded his expectations, and he was already satisfied:

"No, no, no, Wu Di, this qiē has exceeded my expectations, as a teammate and leader, I am grateful to you for your performance along the way."
