Chapter 273 The fifth championship trophy

Grandpa Lu's plan is time-consuming, and it doesn't need to take too long. It only takes two days.

In fact, Grandpa Lu didn't receive any calls from Kong Bu at all. After he learned about Stockton's injury, he already thought that he might need to make an appearance, and immediately flew back to the United States from China and went straight to Los Angeles.

He knows that Kongbu treats him well. Let’s not mention that he will have the opportunity to work in Kongbu’s training camp and earn half a million US dollars. He can only play the main point position with the Wizards. In fact, he has nothing to do with Kongbu.

Open a relationship.

He has always said to the outside world that he is a relative of Kong Bu, and Kong Bu has never denied it. No matter whether he is a human or a ghost, he has to give Kong Bu some face, so Grandpa Lu has always lived a good life. After arriving with the Wizards, Jordan made the decision for him.

Made the debut.

Due to his talent, he definitely doesn't want to become a first-line star point guard, but it will definitely not be a problem to have a middle-class contract in this league.

Now that Kong Bu needed help, even if Kong Bu didn't ask, Grandpa Lu volunteered and showed up in Los Angeles as soon as possible.

He has every reason to prevent Stockton from playing in Game 5 of the Finals. This is his right and also his obligation. Even if he sues the President of the United States, he will be justified.

After spending so much time at the Lakers headquarters in Los Angeles, Buss finally made the decision and gave up the plan to let Stockton play.

On the one hand, Stockton's current state is definitely not good enough. Even if he plays, no one knows whether it will be effective.

On the other hand, he doesn't want to do anything that arouses public outrage. The introduction of Stockton to the Lakers has already made many teams dissatisfied.

It would be a huge headache if we were to completely clash with the players union now.

Who can stand the players union chasing you every day and suing you?

Zen Master was going crazy. He immediately held a press conference, complained to the media reporters, and even reiterated the rumor that Tyronn Lue, President of the National Players Association, was a relative of Combs.

As a result, Grandpa Lu also jumped out immediately, not giving Zen Master a chance to "spread rumors" at all.

"Say they are relatives, but actually it's just a joke."

"I am a black man, and Kongbu is an extremely pure Chinese man. Do you think we can be relatives?"

"There are really no fools who believe this kind of joke, right? It would be more credible to say that I am related to Kong Bu than to say that I am related to Jordan."

"As a representative of the players union, I must be responsible for every player. Phil Jackson should not try to make me compromise by throwing dirty water on me."

Grandpa Lu is a man capable of great things. At this critical moment, he doesn't even need to be a relative of Kong Bu.

As a result of his interference, Stockton failed to play after the start of Game 5 of the finals.

The Philadelphia 76ers won this game very easily.

The Lakers have completely lost their energy, and the generals on the court are playing sluggishly. They don't look like a finals team.

In fact, O'Pang's statistics are not bad. In this game, he also scored 30 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks, top-notch inside statistics, but he just gave people the feeling that he did not use his full strength.

Everyone felt that he deserved a more explosive performance.

Kobe's performance in the entire series was not bad. On the offensive end, he averaged 23 points per game, and his shooting percentage was acceptable. Mainly because of his great value on the defensive end. If he hadn't been guarding Gerrard, even Stockton

Without injuries, the Lakers are no match for the Philadelphia 76ers.

Malone played very well in the first two games, even averaging 25 points per game, but since Stockton missed the third game, his data has shrunk drastically. No one has passed the ball to him.

His ball rights have dropped sharply, and his role in the Lakers team is almost the same as that of Robert Horry in the previous two years.

It may not be as useful as Horry, after all, Horry still has a good three-point ability.

Fox has achieved nothing, he is a typical weasel who marries a wife, playing small tricks. Don't expect him to produce any explosive statistics on the court. All he can do is score a few goals and go through the motions.

Fisher is still very cheating. When he faced off against Iverson, his defensive efficiency reached an incredible 127, which means Iverson could score 127 points in 100 possessions.

Taken together, this Lakers team is not bad and is definitely a strong team, but it is not strong enough to end the dominance of the Philadelphia 76ers.

Yao Ming averaged 26 points, 16 rebounds and 1 block in this series, and has gradually narrowed the gap between himself and O'Brien.

In other words, there is not much difference between the two at the moment. After all, Yao Ming's rebounding is much better than O'Pang's.

Gerrard is still very strong on the defensive end, but his offensive average is much less than Combo expected, only about 13 points per game.

However, even if the score is low, one cannot ignore the restraining role played by Gerrard on the offensive end. If he hadn't restrained Kobe, Iverson would definitely have suffered.

Iverson should be regarded as the most outstanding player in the series. Since Stockton was injured, he has been at an almost arbitrary level on the offensive end. He scored 37 points in the third game and 41 points in the fourth game.

In five games, he scored 46 points.

With such a performance, the Finals FMVP will definitely not run.

Kongbu was sincerely happy for Iverson. This stubborn little man finally won the first very valuable personal honor in his career.

Stern is at Staples Center, and he needs to host the championship award ceremony tonight.

The income generated by this round of finals was much less than he expected, but now the championship has been produced. Since it cannot be changed, he can only face it with a smile.

On the podium that had been set up, Stern announced with a smile on his face that the Philadelphia 76ers had won the 2001-2002 season championship.

The Philadelphia generals cheered.

It's okay for young people and players who experienced last season's championship, but old Miller is a bit out of control. Even if this championship is not valuable to him, it can be regarded as fulfilling his dream.

From now on, he will also be a player with a championship ring.

And if we really talk about the gold content, it’s actually not bad, at least it’s much higher than the gold content of Barkley’s championship ring.

You must know that the old Miller has set many three-point records this year, especially the record of 400 three-pointers in a single season, which shocked everyone.

Barkley, who was commentating on the game, lamented, "Why did I choose to retire at that time?"

"TNT only gives me a salary of US$800,000 a season. If I stay with the Philadelphia 76ers, why should Combs give me an annual salary of US$1 million? And I can win another championship with the team."

"I'm so stupid, really!"

Kenny Smith nodded repeatedly. This time he agreed with Barkley's statement.

Standing on the podium, Kongbu breathed a sigh of relief. This championship trophy is of great significance to him.

This is a milestone championship trophy.

From then on, Kongbu will legitimately become the coach with the most honors in the league today, no one!

After entering the league for five full years, Kongbu has actually broken countless records.

For example, the youngest head coach, the youngest with 100 wins, 200 wins, 300 wins, the highest winning percentage for more than three seasons, the highest net point differential in a single season, etc. Anyway, as long as there are records that have nothing to do with career years,

Almost all of them have been broken by Kongbu.

At present, his number of championships is equal to that of Jackson Master, his number of COYs exceeds that of Jackson Master, and various records have been obtained. He is the strongest coach in this league.

…

On the night of winning the championship, Iverson treated him to a treat and led the players to a night of fun in the bustling Los Angeles. No need to guess, Iverson spent at least 100,000 US dollars on this night.

However, Iverson spent the money happily. A FMVP directly made him a superstar qualified to be on par with McGrady.

His popularity is very high. With two championships and the blessing of an FMVP, his sneakers will definitely be sold out recently.

A mere $100,000 is just a small amount of money to him.

After the fun, Combo returned to Philadelphia with a bunch of drunk guys.

As soon as he got off the plane, Kongbu received several phone calls.

One was called by Jordan, asking him not to forget the league expansion meeting in half a month.

Of course, Kongbu cannot be forgotten, because even if there is no expansion meeting, Kongbu will have to go to New York to participate in the draft, and there is no way he will miss it.

Then there was a call from Bird. He told Kongbu that the training ground was ready and that Kongbu could take people there at any time.

Then came the call from Knicks owner James Dolan. This year, it will still be in the form of a reality show to record Kongbu's training camp, and there is a lot of work to be prepared in advance.

Kongbu sighed. He had just won the championship on his front foot and didn't even have a drink of hot water. He had to immediately plunge into intense work.

…

"Brian, go communicate with the Bucks' new general manager, Harris, and sell Mason to them and sign a trade contract as soon as possible."

Kongbu summoned his four assistants and began to assign work.

There were originally five assistant coaches, but Brother Bread had already excitedly ran to the Bucks with little Mason to report.

Brian Hill nodded, "Okay, boss, we traded Dalembert for young Mason."

"You can't really give little Mason to the Bucks for nothing, you need some chips."

Kongbu smacked his lips. After all, Mason didn't play the whole season. He had so many chips that he was too embarrassed to speak.

"They have the 41st pick in the second round, so let's take this pick."

"I mean, after all, it's impossible not to give up everything, otherwise the alliance's process won't go through."

Kongbu asked the Bucks for a second-round pick that wasn't very high.

This second-round pick can be used to select this year's rookie Matt Barnes.

Under normal circumstances, Barnes is selected with the 45th pick, and the Bucks should be able to successfully win him with the 41st pick.
