"I have to thank many people, from Ms. Gale to management to coaching staff to fans, this team may not be the best in history, but it is the most united, and the word championship cannot be separated from."

However, Tang Tian was really charming in his speech, and then the words attracted a burst of cheers and screams at the scene.

“I have to thank my wife Elizabeth and my two sons, who gave me endless motivation on the field, and they will always be my strongest backing.

I have to thank my team, and Carl, who will soon become my new agent, is not only a member of my team, but also my brother.”

Unlike in the past, Tang Tian also added Carl to the people he thanked, which was obviously to push him to the public.

Sure enough, after Tang Tian said Carl's name, many reporters wrote down the name and began to search his information privately.

I believe that it won't take long before Carl will be known to everyone like Moo Paulo.

“What I want to thank most this year is Jimmy and Kemba, our friendship is beyond basketball and we are the best brothers.

This champion cannot be separated from them, they are one of the best basketball players in the world."

Tang Tian finally mentioned Walker and Butler.

Not only did the two perform well, but next season is the year of their contract, he also needs to create momentum for the two brothers to get the maximum salary.

After interviewing Queen Tang, the reporter interviewed Stevens and the other three brothers, one after another.

Like Tang Tian, ​​they praised the rest of the team more during the interview.

The unity that Tang Tian mentioned is really the label of this strongest team in history.

This may also explain why this team can win 80 wins in the regular season without running-in.

After the interview was completed, the staff there came over with envelopes containing the voting results.

The last item of the award ceremony is the selection of fmvp.

11 media outlets 11 votes.

Russell was pushed out in a wheelchair, but his spirit seemed better than last year.

It can be seen that his condition has improved.

Xiao Hua took the envelope and opened it.

As a result, there is actually not much suspense.

In the four finals, the Pelicans swept the Cavaliers, with 20+ wins in every game, and the main players basically checked in three quarters.

But even so, the competition is basically concentrated among the four brothers who work hard.

Tang Tian averaged 25.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.1 blocks per game;

Walker, averaging 17.2 points, 3.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game;

Davis averaged 17.1 points, 10.3 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game;

Butler, averaging 12.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 2.3 steals per game;

The disadvantage of the team's strong lineup is that it is easy to win the game, and everyone's data will not be very good.

But compared to the comparison, Tang Tian is still the one with no suspense.

"It was Tang Tian who won the Bill Russell Cup in the 2018 NBA Finals."

Xiao Hua actually knew it before opening the envelope, and now he gritted his teeth and read the final result.

Tang Tian got 8 of the 11 votes, and Walker, Davis and James each got one.

When Xiao Hua read Tang Tian’s name, fans cheered and cheered at the scene, and the Pelicans teammates behind him also cheered and screamed for Tang Tian from the bottom of their hearts.

Although in terms of data, Tang Tian’s Finals are not impressive compared to the past two years, it is different throughout the playoffs, at least it is at an average of 30+ per game.

He also scored 50+ in overtime against the Trail Blazers, helping the team maintain its unbeaten golden body.

Moreover, Tang Tian’s strength is no longer questionable now, and he is more versatile and stronger than Jordan at the time.

Russell was helped up, but Xiao Hua directly gave the trophy to Tang Tian, ​​and the Lord of the Rings was a little embarrassed.

However, this did not prevent Russell from coming to communicate with Tang Tian.

"Congratulations, you are the third child to complete it three times in a row."

Russell looked at Tang Tian with admiration and love.

The trophy of FMVP was awarded only one year after Russell retired.

This is also why this trophy is called the Bill Russell Cup, and his participation is required for the award.

So every award presentation makes a lot of sense to Russell himself.

The third one he mentioned refers to three consecutive fmvp.

Before Tang Tian, ​​only Jordan and O'Neal had done it, and Jordan had done it twice.

“I will be the first one.”

Tang Tian said with a smile.

Russell didn't react at first, but he only reacted after Tang Tian made a 4 gesture, and then laughed.

The first one Tang Tian said refers to the first player who completed the 4-game FMVP.

Because Russell did not have the FMVP award in that era, Tang Tianzhen won four consecutive championships, so he would be the first one.

"This era belongs to you."

Russell smiled and hugged Tang Tian. He really liked the child Tang Tian.

After hugging, everyone started taking a photo together.

At this time there was a detail in the venue.

As the president of the league, Xiao Hua should be in the C position, but no one gave him any advice. In the end, he was squeezed to the edge.

The president is unique in this regard.

The award ceremony ended, but there were various group photos in the venue.

After the photo, there is a real champagne carnival in the locker room.

After the Champagne Carnival, there is also an all-night bar champion night.

This year's bar consumption is fully covered by Gail Benson.

After drinking more than half of the wine, Tang Tian, ​​Walker and Butler rested and chatted in the private room next door.

This year was the most enjoyable year for the three brothers, and there were a lot of things to say after winning the championship.

As we chatted, we naturally talked about the next free agent market.

They have a good relationship and nothing can cover their eyes.

"Don, I've talked to Jimmy, and we'll leave New Orleans in the offseason."

Walker spoke.

He didn't say the reason, but it actually had something to do with Tang Tian.

Tang Tian’s data this year is much worse than last year’s average triple-double average.

In other words, Tang Tian sacrificed a lot of ball rights for him and Butler, and his data was completely unworthy of the league's number one player.

"Good thing."

Tang Tian nodded.

NBA is a business alliance and a data alliance. Like 2k, the super giants will be together for a long time, and the player's strength and market will be weakened.

The three Heat and the three Cavaliers who are now being criticized have a lot to do with this reason.

In order for the team to win, super giants must have division of labor and sacrifice.

They are the same, they win together, but not to mention his personal data, Walker and Butler both plummeted.

Especially Butler, if he plays for another two years, he may become the next Bosh or Love.

None of the three of them spoke, but they were actually thinking about each other and tacitly understood.

"But it must be the maximum salary. If it is not the maximum salary, I will have to let Benson pay the luxury tax to keep you."

Tang Tian then added.

This is what he promised Walker at the beginning.

Although the data is not very impressive, the strength shown by Walker and Butler is definitely worth the maximum salary.

"Actually, I don't want to leave..."

Butler couldn't help it in the end and said.

It can be seen that Walker should have done a lot of his ideological work before.

"knew."

Tang Tian looked like a proud brother and reached out to touch Butler's head.

They are discussing here, but the Pelicans management doesn't know what they think.

If Benson was determined to pay a super luxury tax to keep people, Walker and Butler might not have left.

Furthermore, Xiao Hua has decided to step down, and by then, the new alliance president will still be unknown any changes to the system rules.

If there is a hard salary cap, then the luxury tax is not something you can pay just by wanting it.
Chapter completed!
