Chapter 245 The King of the World
In the last few minutes of the game, Zheng Ke and all the fans stood up together. The fans shouted, and there was joy everywhere.

At some point, the Timberwolves players took off their small parts one by one, such as wrist guards and elbow pads, and threw them into the audience, causing the audience to scream.In this happy atmosphere, Zheng Ke even forgot that the equipment on his body was equipped with magic equipment. He threw out the "Rubber Wristband of Maddie's Left Hand" and "Roy's Right Leg Knee Pad". This time, I immediately regretted it.

On the contrary, the fans who snatched his equipment were very excited and shouted loudly: "Take off another piece, take off another piece!"

The moment the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the Timberwolves' coaching staff, players, and staff all rushed into the field.

The first championship in Timberwolves history!
It was so unexpected, the fans were crying with joy, it felt so dreamy.

Two years ago, when Garnett left here, fans in the Minnesota area were heartbroken. People felt that the Timberwolves might be in a slump, and it would be difficult to link up with the strong teams in the West in the next five or even ten years. I dare not even think about it.Unexpectedly, the Timberwolves picked the nobleman, Zheng Ke, a magical boy from the ancient East. He led the Timberwolves to rise with a strong attitude, and won the championship in two years!

Most people burst into tears. Billups, who left the Pistons, thought he was getting farther and farther away from the championship, but he didn't expect to touch this highest honor again.The older ones, such as Anderson, Mac Miller, Smith, Collins, etc., had tears in their eyes, while the young players, Brewer, Lowry, Afflalo, etc., were laughing and laughing, their faces covered with tears. happy smile.

Love won the championship in the first year of his career, and he was still a main player. He said that it made a group of old people go crazy with jealousy. TNT broadcast guest Barkley was there talking about it, thinking that this kid was extremely lucky.

Zheng Ke walked to the sidelines and pulled Taylor who was sitting and cheering for him. Zheng Ke lowered his head, kissed Taylor lightly, then took Taylor's hand and walked into the middle of the field.The fans who followed Zheng Ke immediately booed, whistled and laughed in good faith.

Although the results of the final MVP selection have not yet come out, Zheng Ke's election is already a matter of no suspense.

In the last game, he scored a game-high 36 points in three quarters, and grabbed 8 rebounds and 7 assists at the same time. If he finishes the last quarter, maybe he can complete a triple-double.

During the finals, Zheng Ke averaged 32.2 points, 8.9 rebounds, 8.1 assists, 3.9 steals and 1.7 blocks per game, dominating the game on both offense and defense.

The members of the Magic team left the field, Howard's expression was very distressed, his eyes were red, like a wounded beast.They shook hands and hugged the Timberwolves players one by one. Zheng Ke found Howard and hugged him vigorously: "It's okay, Dwight, you have done a good job, and there will be opportunities in the future!"

Howard pursed his lips and did not speak, he was afraid that tears would fall when he spoke.

Zheng Ke patted Howard's chest, and then went to find other Magic players.He doesn't have the habit of adding insult to injury, the Timberwolves have already won the championship, and it's no big deal for Zheng Ke to comfort the Magic players.

Countless reporters and cameras can be seen everywhere. Although most of them are around Zheng Ke, there are still many scattered in the middle of the field. Every Timberwolves player has a reporter to interview. The fringe players are all the focal points on the court today, showing their faces greatly.

The reporter interviewed Billups: "You left the Pistons last summer and returned to the Timberwolves. Have you ever thought about dying in the Clippers?"

This question got to Billups' heart, and he said excitedly: "Of course, why not? You know, in the early days of my career, I have been wandering in this league. Going to live, the Timberwolves are great, we won the championship, there is only 20-year-old Zheng Ke, we can win more championships in the future, I hope to retire here."

The No. 13 player in the finals, Love, who averaged 14 points and [-] rebounds per game, was also the target of the reporters: "Kevin, can you tell me how it feels to win the championship?"

Love smiled innocently, touched the beard on his chin, and said: "It feels very good. I am very glad that I was able to win the championship at the beginning of my career. This is an honor that all players dream of. I like it. Timberwolves, I love Minnesota!"

The staff set up a small stage, where the championship award ceremony will be held soon.

The Timberwolves players all stepped onto the small stage, as well as members of the coaching staff, general manager McHale, owner Glenn Taylor, and others. Of course, league president David Stern also appeared on the stage.The staff handed the Timberwolves players white T-shirts commemorating the championship and peaked caps commemorating the championship, and then the lights on the scene suddenly went out, and the spotlight shone on the small stage that was built.

The DJ at the target center on site began to say: "Ladies and gentlemen, please keep your eyes on the center of the field. Now is the time to present the 09 O'Brien Cup and the 09 Finals Most Valuable Player awards. Let us have Ask ABC reporter Stu Scott to host the award ceremony for us."

Scott took the microphone, scanned the surrounding crowd, and said in his unique voice: "Thank you, everyone. The one who presented the O'Brien trophy to the Minnesota Timberwolves is the president of the NBA - David Stern."

He paused, and continued: "The owner of the Timberwolves, Glenn Taylor, is the one who accepts the award on behalf of the Timberwolves."

After Stern took the microphone, he thanked Scott first, and then said slowly: "First of all, I would like to thank the Orlando Magic, the well-deserved Eastern Conference champion."

There was a burst of applause immediately at the scene, and Zheng Ke and others also applauded generously behind Stern.

Stern changed his words and said: "However, tonight and this year's championship trophy belong to the Minnesota Timberwolves. This is the first time in the history of their team to win a championship. Thanks to Timberwolves owner Glenn Taylor, and thanks to the Timberwolves management , Thank you to all the members of the Timberwolves, and sincerely congratulate all the members and coaching staff of the Timberwolves. I will also send my congratulations to my friends in Minnesota!"

"Now, let's award the O'Brien Trophy to the 09 NBA champions - the Minnesota Timberwolves!"

After speaking, Stern handed the microphone to Scott, picked up the O'Brien cup on the table in front of him, and handed it to Timberwolves owner Glenn Taylor.

As Glenn Taylor took over the O'Brien Cup, the fans immediately burst into a tsunami of cheers, and they continued to ring.After Glenn Taylor played with the O'Brien Cup for a while, he gave the trophy to the other Timberwolves and let the trophy pass from player to player, so everyone reached out to grab a couple of them.

After a while, Scott re-hosted: "Now Mr. Stern will announce the winner of the Most Valuable Player of the 09 Finals and present him with the trophy."

Stern took the microphone and said in a magnetic voice: "Tonight, we are honored to invite Bill Russell, who once led the Celtics to win the championship trophy 13 times in 11 years, The player with the most championships, we named the MVP after him."

Russell was fully dressed and was waiting in a straight suit. Although he was over 75 years old, he was still astonishing, as if there was still a giant beast hidden in his old body, which gave a great deal to the Timberwolves players on the side. pressure.

After Stern invited Bill Russell, he began to announce: "The most valuable player of the 2009 Finals, he averaged more than 32 points, nearly 9 rebounds and 8 assists per game, Zheng Ke!"

Although people at the scene had already expected it, the fans couldn't help screaming, cheering and applauding the moment Stern made the official announcement.

Stern picked up the trophy, shook Russell's hand, and handed the trophy to Russell.

Holding the trophy with a smile on his face, Russell handed the trophy to Zheng Ke who was standing behind.Zheng Ke looked at the old man, took the trophy with both hands, and the surrounding Timberwolves players immediately applauded.

Zheng Ke grabbed the trophy with one hand in his left hand, raised it high above his head, and enjoyed the worship of the fans.
After making a fuss for a while, Scott took the microphone and interviewed Zheng Ke: "Congratulations to Zheng Ke for winning the first championship. This is the first championship in your career. What do you want to say in particular? words?"

"Of course," Zheng Ke replied: "I would like to thank my teammates, my coach, general manager, owner and fans who love me. Without their support, the Timberwolves would not be where they are today, and I would not be here. Accepting the award. This is the most exciting moment in my life. In the future, I will continue to work hard to win more championships.",

"Last year, the Timberwolves didn't even have the playoffs this year, but this year they directly won the championship. There is a big span in it. Compared with last year's Timberwolves, what do you think is different this year?"

Without thinking, Zheng Ke blurted out and replied: "We all know that the team must insist on good defense. Compared with last year's Timberwolves, this year's Timberwolves have better defense. Every player is full of fighting spirit. Chauncey brought his defense to the fore. It was given to us. What I used to think about was always locking the enemy's arrow characters, but now I think about preventing the enemy's overall attack."

"Congratulations, Zheng Ke." After the brief interview, Scott made a concluding host: "Congratulations to the Minnesota Timberwolves, congratulations to them for winning the first championship trophy in team history!"

Zheng Ke held Taylor with his left hand, and raised the MVP trophy above his head again with his right hand.

Tonight, he is king of the world.
