The ATT Stadium was extremely lively tonight, with happy smiles on its faces, exactly the same as when it was held last season's championship parade.

Because tonight, the stadium will hold a ring awarding ceremony for the championship!

Last year, because it was a away championship, fans were unable to witness the scene of winning the championship in the stadium.

But now, they can see the scene where the league awarded the team a championship ring at home!

League President David Stern and Vice President Adam Xiaohua all came to the game site.

Amid the cheers of fans, the table with the championship ring displayed was pushed to the center of the arena.

The photographer on the scene immediately gave a close-up of the ring.

In the center of the top of the ring is a Spurs team logo. The team logo is surrounded by diamonds. The three English letters "NBA" above the team logo, and the English letters of the "champion" champion below.

Compared with the championship rings of other NBA teams, this ring of the Spurs is as low-key and simple as its team culture.

There is a very obvious point, that is, the words on the general team are "world.champion", while the Spurs are "NBA.champion".

The biggest advantage of doing this is to save money. After all, the theme composition of the champion ring is pure 14K white gold and diamonds, and the cost of a few words will be much less.

After Stern gave a congratulatory opening remark, he presented the championship ring with Spurs owner Holt.

First there is the coaching staff, then the core players, and finally the bench players.

There are also two types of championship rings. One is named, for players who have played in the finals and have obtained data, and the other is bench players who have not appeared for a long time.

After getting his own championship ring with GDP, Tang Tian was the fourth time.

His on-stage attracted cheers from fans, and the decibels were no smaller than the previous GDP.

Speaking of contributions, Tang Tian’s contribution in the finals is second only to Duncan, and fans know this very well.

Tang Tian took the ring from Holt's hand.

"Congratulations, you're outstanding."

Stern, who was standing beside him, congratulated him and gave Tang Tian a hug.

His face was full of smiles, and it was possible to feel that these behaviors were from the heart.

The ratings of the finals in China hit record highs last year, and he should be happy.

And that is obviously inseparable from Tang Tian.

After Yao Ming, the NBA finally found another player who opened the door to the Chinese market again.

When Tang Tian and Stern hugged each other, they noticed that there was a look at him on the side.

He turned his head and found that it was Xiao Hua.

Unlike Stern, although Xiao Hua was also laughing, he was a little smirk and didn't smile.

There were rumors before that Xiao Hua was competing with Stern's old rival, Tetm, as he was the successor of the league. Because Tetm has Asian descent, he was not interested in Asian players and did not know whether it was true or false.

After taking his own championship ring, Tang Tian then walked back to the queue.

"Why do I think this ring is similar to that of 2007? The only difference seems to be the numbers."

Tang Tian heard Parker's low complaints as soon as he walked back.

He smiled and picked up the ring and looked at it.

The front of the ring is the same as the one placed by the photographer on the LED screen. The abbreviation of Tang Tian’s name is written on one side, and the other side is a very interesting pattern.

A hammer hit a broken rock.

This should be a picture version of the dressing room proverb.

It seems that this rock culture is really everywhere in the Spurs.

"Manu, you have to give the designer some buffering time. I won a championship in recent years, and the place above is so small."

Tang Tian just finished reading it and heard Ginobili's slutty words and couldn't help but be amused.

The championship ring is more about honor. Whether it is simple or not, its significance is the most important.

The ring awarding ceremony is still underway.

At this time, at the other end of the court, the Thunder team members looked at the field with envy.

Durant's actions were quite funny at this time.

At first, he deliberately did not forget to look there, but after a while he couldn't help but turn his head to look, but perhaps he thought of something, he turned around immediately. After a while, he couldn't help but peek.

If the scene had not been projected to the center of the venue, it would have been projected by the photographer onto the large LED screen.

He was extremely excited when he won the Olympics, but after returning to the NBA, he found that what he cared about the most was the NBA ring.

But with Harden's departure, the ring was farther away from him than before.

The ring awarding ceremony ended, and the championship flag-raising ceremony was held on site.

The background music of "we.are.the.champions" (we are champions) was used on site, and the chorus was almost sang on site.

As the Spurs' fifth championship flag rose to the ceiling, deafening cheers rang out at the scene.

Now, they are the defending champions!

At this time, Durant finally looked at the flag with a focused expression, his eyes full of complexity.

"Kevin, let's get started!"

Just then, Westbrook patted Durant on the shoulder hard and said firmly.

Harden's departure made the team's morale depressed, but not including Westbrook, he has always been the most motivated person in the team.

Durante nodded, then looked at the other warm-up Spurs halftime.

Although Harden's departure caused the Thunder to decline, with him, Westbrook and Ibaka, the team's core framework is still there, and the Thunder still has strong competitiveness.

The Spurs won the championship last season without being favored, and they can do it too.

Moreover, his dribbling has made significant progress in the offseason, and his personal self-confidence is also at its peak.

After the award ceremony, the opening ceremony was followed by the scene, with both sides' starters appearing one after another.

The Thunder are still the lineup last season, with Westbrook and Sovlosa on the outside, Durant and Ibaka on the front line, and Perkins on the center.

On the Spurs side, Popovich also lined up a regular lineup, Parker and Tang Tian from the outside, Leonard and Duncan from the front, and Split from the center.

Ibaka got the chance to jump first for the Thunder, and Durant directly asked for the ball to play Leonard single when he arrived in the frontcourt.

Unlike last season, he could only make a left breakthrough and a turnover jump shot, because he strengthened the dribble, he faced Leonard with a cross step at this time.

Leonard saved the steal, but his death entanglement failed.

Durant's concentration was so high at the beginning. At the moment when Leonard took action, he changed direction and took action directly.

"Swish!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

Durant takes the lead for the Thunder.

After scoring the goal, his facial expression was quite cold and he looked like a god of death.

"Limit him to catch the ball as much as possible."

Tang Tian took the initiative to go to Leonard to remind him at this time.

Duran's characteristics have always been very sensitive. The Spurs have sent the championship ring in front of him, which must have stimulated him.

And more importantly, Durant can now dribble, which is more difficult to deal with than last season.
Chapter completed!
