Chapter 313 The Inheritance of Basketball
Li Du and Yao Ming stood behind the field and looked at each other. They heard some ominous omens from Pierce's words just now.

Pierce's few words on behalf of the Big Three reminded Li Du and Yao Ming of a sad moment. During the halftime of the 2003 All-Star Game, after Mariah Carey sang "HERO" affectionately for Jordan, Jordan Said a passage with almost the same meaning: "I must say, to be with you, my former teammates, my former opponents, my opponents, I want to thank my family for staying by my side for many years, allowing me I have been following my dream of playing basketball. For all the fans who support basketball, not only Michael Jordan, I thank you for your support. I can have a good handover after leaving the basketball game. There are many great stars in the game There are also many great stars who will come to play in the future. Great stars such as Dr. J, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird have passed on their light to me. Now I will pass this light task to these stars and those in the NBA. other players who play."

Yao Ming was at the scene at the time, and he felt more deeply about what he said. Back then, Jordan talked about inheritance, and then he retired. Now Pierce also talked about inheritance. Are the three of them going to retire too?
When Yao Ming and Li Du were having doubts and emotions, they had already taken over the O'Brien Cup, and then the current NBA president David Stern invited the "Lord of the Rings" who created the Celtics dynasty. "Bill Russell, presenting the Finals MVP trophy.

The finals MVP trophy has been renamed the Bill Russell Cup last season, just to commemorate this former superstar who has made great contributions to basketball!

Li Du undisputedly won the Finals MVP, not to mention his role as the absolute leader of the Warriors, and needless to say that he has led the Warriors to defeat opponents at critical moments of the game countless times, just looking at his statistics is enough.He averaged 42.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, 8.9 assists, 2.1 blocks and 1.9 steals per game. This data is the performance of an absolute superstar no matter what era it is in.

The white-haired Bill Russell tremblingly handed the Finals MVP to Li Du, and then blessed him in his ear: "Congratulations, young man, your performance on the field is close to perfection!"

After Li Du politely said thank you, he was about to deliver his acceptance speech. At this time, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the Celtics still standing in the corner of the court. Thinking of what Pierce and others said, he blurted out with emotion. : "There is a poem in our country, 'Old men stand on the ground, aiming for thousands of miles. Martyrs are old, and their ambitions are endless'. Today I dedicate this sentence to my predecessors. The NBA needs you, and basketball needs you! Maybe your glory is no longer, maybe You have lost the sharpness you used to have, but your greatness does not fade with the passage of time, but it lasts forever! Everyone knows that I entered the league with the help and leadership of basketball seniors. Without their help, I would have I am not what I am today! Here, I sincerely thank all the predecessors, it is you who created the current NBA and the current basketball!"

Li Du couldn't continue when he spoke here, because thunderous applause and cheers erupted at the scene, and no one could hear what he said now.After waiting for the applause to fall, Li Du continued: "Thank you fans and friends, my teammates and coaches. You have always helped me, and I can stand here now. I also want to thank my family, my wife Pu Rui Di, I am Master, Mistress, and Senior Brother. Your support is my greatest motivation and comfort! Finally, please allow me to use an ancient poem to send to my Chinese friends far away across the ocean: Riding the wind and breaking the waves will sometimes hang straight to the clouds Ji Canghai."

Li Du used Li Bai's poem at the end. In this sentence, he wanted to tell everyone that winning this championship is just the beginning. He and Yao Ming will work together to win more victories, more championships!
After the awards ceremony was over, Li Du ignored other people's surprised eyes, ran straight to Pierce and the others, and asked eagerly, "Paul, Ray, Kevin, you don't really want to retire, do you?"

Pierce patted Li Du on the shoulder lightly and said, "Li, don't be nervous, we won't retire for the time being."

Ray Allen and Garnett also said that although they have now reached the late stage of their careers, or even the end, they will not retire for the time being and will continue to be active in the league.

Just don't retire!After receiving affirmative answers from the three of them, Li Du finally felt relieved.If three superstars retire because he won the championship, then it is his fault.

The three of them understood Li Du's thoughts and smiled at each other. Although Li Du is already very powerful, it can even be said that he is already a historical superstar, but he is still a young man after all, and he has not yet seen the basketball game. The sadness and farewell on the Internet, it is still difficult to accept the sad departure of the older generation of players.But it doesn't matter, time is the most ruthless thing. They believe that with the passage of time, Li Du will eventually witness one after another of his current opponents and seniors gradually leave the basketball court. After a lot of experience, they will get used to it.

When Li Du returned to the locker room, the whole team was celebrating crazily. After spending a night with everyone, Li Du and Yao Ming returned to San Francisco with their families the next day.

On the plane, Li Du stared at the white clouds outside the window in a daze. He didn't look happy at all for winning the finals MVP.Yao Ming sat beside Li Du, patted him lightly, and said gently: "Xiao Du, you are still too young to be sad. Pierce actually said that the three of them will disintegrate! In fact, even without us, the Big Three It will also disintegrate after this season."

"Oh?" Li Du asked with doubts: "Brother Yao, they fought well, why did they separate?"

Yao Ming smiled slightly and explained: "Because the three of them signed contracts for three years, after this season, their contracts expired, and everyone has won the championship as they wished. The long-cherished wish is over, so naturally Time to move on to other things.”

"Money?" Li Du asked: "The three of them have been famous for a long time, and Garnett even got the highest annual salary in the league. Will they be short of money?"

Li Du himself doesn't usually spend much money. Although his annual salary is already 1800 million US dollars, plus various endorsement fees, the annual income is about 6000 million US dollars, but he has no idea, his money is average. They are all handed over to Priti for management, or for the master to use in the martial arts gym.

Yao Ming shook his head and said: "It doesn't have to be money. Of course, money is definitely the common pursuit of everyone. Maybe there are other things besides this, so it has nothing to do with us."

Li Du nodded and sighed: "The martyr's twilight years, the end of a hero, is the most touching thing. This is another charm of the NBA."
