Chapter 942 Announcement of Retirement

The Raptors management did not feel disappointed because Ying Xiong implemented the player option and jumped out of the contract. In their view, no matter whether Ying Xiong renews his contract with them, the other party will definitely jump out of the contract.Therefore, they were not out of the competition for Yingxiong.They are still very confident, because as a historical superstar, not everyone can refuse the temptation to have the opportunity to break the Celtics' 8 consecutive championships.

In Hawaii, Yingxiong and Sun Jing are on vacation together.Now that the two know each other, they have never stayed together for such a long time for vacation and play.

On the beach, Ying Xiong and Sun Jing were lying on deck chairs, drinking juice under a parasol.

Sun Jing asked Ying Xiong: "You are on vacation here so leisurely, in the United States, Bill and Fat Tiger must be driven crazy by those managers!"

Ying Xiong said with a smile: "There is no way, this is their job, and being pestered by others is not a bad thing!"

"Big Bear, who will you sign with?" Sun Jing asked.

"You, I only sign a contract with you!" Ying Xiong said seriously.

"You're being mean and serious. Tell me in secret that there's no one else here!" Sun Jing said.

"Jing, let me tell you the truth. I know that I just want to sign a contract with you and sign a lifetime marriage contract! As for who you want to know who I will sign with in the NBA team, I will announce the answer at the awards ceremony on the 26th." !” Ying Xiong said seriously.

Sun Jing knew that when Ying Xiong didn't want to talk, no matter how much he asked, he couldn't get an answer.

The topic of where Yingxiong will go next season is intensifying in the NBA.Whether it is Woj or other NBA names, no news has been received.This is the biggest fish in the NBA free market. If he doesn't decide where to go, many teams will not dare to carry out operations this summer, for fear of affecting the overall situation.

Time passed day by day. During this period, in addition to the draft meeting that kept the teams busy for a while, it also made the stagnant league a little more active.But after being active, it still returns to dullness.Perhaps, this is the eve of the storm.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the current center of the alliance is on those few big fish, and among the few big fish, Ying Xiong is the most critical one.

However, Ying Xiong did not make a statement for a long time, which made the teams who intend to recruit him feel helpless, and also made the media reporters who wanted to dig out heavy news anxious.

As for where Ying Xiong is going, apart from himself, only his two managers, Li Jianwu and Bill Duffy, know.As professional brokers, they naturally would not leak the news, so no one knew what the specific inside story was like.

On June 6, the second NBA Awards will be held at the famous Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California.The major awards of this season will also be announced at the awards ceremony.

As a candidate, Ying Xiong naturally attended the ceremony.For him, the regular season MVP is already in the bag, which is well known.

The winner of the best rookie is Lang Ben Simmons, the No. 76 pick of the Philadelphia [-]ers;

The most improved player award is Pascal Siakam of the Toronto Raptors;
Kyle Lowry of the Toronto Raptors won the best sixth man;
Ujiri of the Toronto Raptors won the best general manager;

The coach of the year was awarded to Toronto Raptors coach Devin Casey;
Ying Xiong of the Toronto Raptors won the best defensive player;
It was Ying Xiong of the Toronto Raptors who won the regular season MVP.

– The Toronto Raptors were the biggest winners of the awards ceremony.

应雄在过去的2017-2018赛季，场均贡献45.3分9.1个篮板7.1次助攻4个抢断2.1个盖帽，投篮命中率是75.1%，3分命中率是57.4%，罚球命中率是95.1%。他蝉联了最佳防守球员和常规赛MVP，是本届颁奖典礼中得奖最多的球员。这是应雄NBA职业生涯获得的第5个常规赛MVP和第3个DOPY。

Ying Xiong delivered his acceptance speech at the scene: "First of all, I would like to thank my home team—Toronto Raptors, everyone on the team. Without you, I would not be where I am today! Coming to the NBA and becoming a professional basketball player is my dream. , fortunately, I realized this dream. 10 years ago, I was an ordinary member of a high school basketball team in China. I didn’t expect that I could achieve the results I have now, but I have always believed that I can realize my dream , as long as I train hard and study hard, I will improve every day."

Ying Xiong paused, and continued: "In the past ten days, too many people have asked me where I will go next season. I am here, and I want to get to know everyone. I will not be anywhere next season. go!"

Before the words fell, the scene began to be restless.No reporter had obtained this news before. What exactly did Ying Xiong mean by what he said, and what exactly did he want to explain.

Ying Xiong smiled and said: "I'm not joking, I just want to take this opportunity to tell everyone where I am going next season. To be precise, I jumped out of the contract, not because I hope to sign a maximum salary with someone, but because I want to Retired!"

As soon as Ying Xiong said this, the entire awards ceremony instantly became lively.Because the news was so shocking that there was no warning at all.

Ying Xiong smiled slightly and continued to break the news: "Perhaps many people are puzzled and think that I have not yet reached the age of retirement. But in fact, there is no one who stipulates the age at which a basketball player should retire. Everyone, I don't want to continue playing basketball. , It’s not that I don’t love basketball anymore. On the contrary, I love basketball forever, and basketball has become a part of my life, but loving basketball doesn’t mean I have to play in the NBA. There are too many things to do in life, playing in the NBA It's my dream. I have realized this dream. I don't have to surpass Michael Jordan and get 10 scoring titles. I don't have to surpass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to become the player with the most points in the NBA. I It is not necessary to surpass the Boston Celtics, win 9 consecutive championships, or even more. I have completed all my goals in the NBA, and I have no regrets. I chose to retire, and I will not Come back again. I played 10 seasons in the NBA. I owe a lot to the people I love and my parents. I hope to use the time in the future to make up for the negligence of them in the past. Thank you, my NBA basketball time, thoroughly it's over!"

In China on the other side of the ocean, Sun Jing couldn't help crying when she saw Ying Xiong's live broadcast of his acceptance speech in front of the computer screen.It turns out that this is Ying Xiong's answer. His next home is family and responsibility, not the continuation of his dream.
