Chapter 395 MVP!

May 5, 15pm, Auckland.

The Bay Area is full of mist all day long, but today is clear and clear. At dusk, the sun sets, and the orange-red afterglow sprinkles, dyeing everything red. The crimson clouds are like a group of flames, extending to the horizon .

On Route 88 passing through the Oracle Center, there was an endless stream of traffic, entering the vast parking lot one after another, in a busy and orderly manner.

Thousands of people got off their cars and walked towards the entrance of the Oracle Arena, forming a long queue, waiting for the ticket check-in.

They are of different ages and identities. There are muscular middle-aged blue-collar workers, well-dressed young Silicon Valley elites, and childish black teenagers in avant-garde clothes. But after meeting each other, they can high-five together without any barriers and get along well. .

Countless conversations and laughter were intertwined, stirring up people's emotions, making them more excited, and talking and laughing louder.

Suddenly, someone who didn't know started shouting the slogan "Warriors", and soon, the shouts of "Warriors" spread rapidly, forming a huge wave of sound, sweeping all directions.

Above people's heads, on the outer wall of the Oracle Center, there is a huge poster of Curry's upper body. He folds his arms around his chest and stares straight ahead with sharp eyes. crowd.

……

"Hey mom, can I dress like this?"

Inside the Oracle Center, in the stadium-side front row, Ayesha stood up, wearing a loose light gray dress, her figure was bloated due to lack of exercise during pregnancy.

Holding her increasingly round belly with both hands, she slowly turned twice in front of Sonya Curry. Beside the two of them sat Dale, Seth and Siddel.

Since the first round of G1 between the Warriors and the Mavericks, Dell and Sonya have watched the Warriors' games without landing, traveling back and forth between home and away games. to Oracle Center.

Sonya held Ayesha's arm and said with a smile:

"Very good, sit down, Ayesha, be careful not to touch your body."

Ayesha sat down slowly, still pressing her left hand on her protruding stomach, and said with some regret:
"It's a pity that I won't be able to watch Stephen's game later..."

Sonya comforted:
"It's also for your body. After another two months, when the baby is born, you can watch Stephen's games at will."

Ayesha nodded slightly, stroked her round belly, and said softly:
"It would be great if I got pregnant sooner. If Stephen can accept the award in front of the child, he will definitely be happier..."

……

pat.

In the locker room of the home team, Curry sat in his seat, put on the ankle brace meticulously, checked it carefully, and then put on the sneakers with some difficulty, muttering to himself:
"When will I have a signature shoe developed just for me..."

His regular sneaker contract with Nike is about to expire this year, and his agent team will be busier than ever this summer.

Curry tied his shoelaces, tightened them again, stood up, jumped twice on the spot, and sat down again after confirming that there was no awkward feeling.

At the beginning, the boss insisted that I wear ankle braces, but in a flash, six years have passed...

In Curry's mind, the eyes full of admiration and trust when he saw Zhang Yu for the first time appeared in Curry's mind. Zhang Yu's shock and joy after buying the Warriors...

He thought of the overwhelming ridicule and oneness after he was selected by Zhang Yu with the second overall pick, the shocking lore he made against Bynum, and the fact that he was selected as the All-Star starter when he was selected. The ecstasy and excitement that followed...

He also remembered the unforgettable pain when he lost to Florida State University in his freshman year. It was after that game that he never chose to pass the ball at the last moment. Zhang Yu's teaching let him know that it belonged to him Responsibility……

He also thought of the endless loss when he was eliminated by the Suns and the Mavericks. No matter how amazing he played in the eyes of others, he will never forget the unwillingness and frustration of being out of the playoffs, but Zhang Yu's simple and powerful sentence " Come back next year", so that he can always cheer up quickly and devote himself to summer training...

"Thank you, boss..." Curry murmured to himself with a smile on his lips.

"Hey, Stephen, let's go, for you, today's warm-up time has been advanced." Butler put his arm around Curry's shoulder and smiled.

Green also came over and said:

“Stephen, let’s go, everyone is waiting for you.”

Clay also looked at Curry and said;
"Stephen, let's go, you have to be the first to appear today."

"Come on, Stephen..."

The people gathered around one after another, and tried to persuade them.

Finally, Zhang Yu came to Curry, raised her head slightly, looked into his eyes, and smiled slightly:
"Stephen, remember what I said to you? Today, you finally fulfilled it."

boom!
Curry's thoughts were drawn back to the afternoon when Zhang Yu took him to drink coffee, and those words seemed to keep lingering in his ears:

"I recruited you to the Bulldogs not because you shot 100-for-96 from [-]-point range, but because you're Stephen Curry, and you have potential beyond your imagination. Not only will you make it to the NBA, you'll You're going to be a superstar, you're going to be the top scorer in history!"

Curry came back to his senses and suddenly smiled:
"No, boss, you're not right, I'm not the number one shooter in history."

Zhang Yu was startled, then laughed loudly:

"Okay, I was wrong, but I believe that this day will not be too far away..."

Afterwards, the Warriors players filed out of the locker room, and Curry walked in the forefront. On the outside of his vamp, there was a line of crooked words:
"I can do all things!"

……

Inside the stadium, the audience was full and the voices were buzzing. Almost everyone's eyes were fixed on the exit of the player tunnel.

David Stern was sitting on the sidelines with a kind face, and he was talking in a low voice with the assistant beside him. Beside him, several league staff members gathered, opened a box, and took out the box very carefully. made a bronze statue.

boom!
The audience suddenly boiled up, and Stern turned his head to look, and saw Curry trot into the arena from the exit of the player tunnel.

"Yeah!!"

"Ah, Stephen, you are finally here!"

"MVP—MVP!"

Almost all the spectators stood up, and the atmosphere in the arena was so enthusiastic that it seemed to explode. Without the need for spotlights, Curry instantly became the focus of everyone's attention. The other Warriors players followed Curry and walked into the arena Inside.

Afterwards, the Warriors completed their warm-up amidst the continuous drumming and noise of the fans. Only when the national anthem was sung, the audience barely restrained their excitement and calmed down.

Later, when the players entered the arena, the DJ on the scene introduced the Lakers players of the visiting team to enter the arena in a calm tone, which caused a burst of boos, even when the DJ pronounced Kobe's name.

Snapped.

Suddenly, the headlights on the dome of the arena went out, and only a few beams of lights remained floating in the auditorium. The decibels in the arena suddenly soared, and the DJ quickly finished Butler, Clay, Green and Chandler in a passionate voice. name, and then paused, before trying to raise the pitch, with a voice almost roaring, loudly said:

"Now, let me introduce, the upcoming is this season's MVP, three-time All-Star, two-time All-NBA, one-time All-Second Team, two-time scoring champion, Rookie of the Year, First-Rookie of the Year, from Butler University's number 30 - Steph~~~Curry!!"

In the passionate voice of the DJ, under the spotlight, Curry high-fived his teammates one by one, came to the field, and waved around.

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

All the fans at the scene stood up and shouted in unison, shaking the dome.

The big screen in mid-air began to play highlights of Curry's career in the past three years, his first goal for the Warriors, his first three-pointer, and the three-pointer he made against James. Divide the ball, he faced Bynum's three-point lore, he played Durant's breakthrough layup, he swayed Parker's emergency stop jumper, he hit the big military training Dirk Nowitzki's step-back three points...

All the glory of the past is manifested at this moment.

Stern got up slowly and came to Curry. The league staff had already arranged in the center of the field. The "Maurice Podorov Cup" was named after the first NBA president and symbolized the MVP. ", standing quietly on the round table.

David Stern picked up the microphone, coughed lightly, and the audience gradually quieted down. He looked at Curry and said with a smile:

"Stephen Curry, you are the leader of the Warriors..."

"Yeah!!"

"Curry!"

A burst of cheers interrupted his speech, and Stern paused before continuing amidst the cheers:

"You led this team to the best record in the NBA this season. This is not only a tribute to you, but also a return to the entire team and the best Bay Area fans..."

"Yeah!!"

The cheers suddenly became louder, as if in response to Stern's response, he had to stop again.

And Curry kept nodding his head, looked at Stern, at the MVP trophy, and at the fans in the distance, pursed his lips tightly, applauded, and then kept rubbing his hands, It seemed a little dazed, but also a little nervous.

After the cheers paused for a while, Stern raised the microphone again:

"This is also very special. You are the first Warriors player to win the regular season MVP in the past 52 years. The last player to win the MVP before that was Wilt Chamberlain. So, you are on a very special team, an amazing team. It is now my honor, and it is my honor to present - Stephen Curry won the 2011-2012 regular season Most Valuable Player Award!"

Before Stern finished speaking, the fans stopped suppressing their emotions and shouted loudly:

"Yeah!!"

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

Amidst the shouts of mountains and tsunami, Stern picked up the MVP trophy with some difficulty and handed it to Curry. Curry bent down quickly and took it with both hands.

Stern smiled and said:

"I'm so happy, Stephen, to see a new era begin."

Curry replied modestly:

"Thank you, I am honored to receive your compliment."

Stern patted Curry on the shoulder with great relief and took a step back. Curry took a deep breath and held the MVP trophy high above his head.

boom!
People were completely insane, the shouts of "MVP" resounded throughout the arena, and there was no other noise.

On the sidelines, Ayesha caressed her lower abdomen with one hand and covered her lips with the other, with tears in her eyes and choking with sobs.

Beside her, Dell stared at Curry, the corners of his mouth curled up, but two lines of dirty tears slipped quietly from the corners of his eyes, half relieved and half sad.

His unrealized dream will be realized by Curry.

Sonya was still laughing, but her vision had long been blurred by tears. No one wanted to see Curry succeed more than her. After walking step by step, she finally saw Curry succeed in realizing his dream, and she could no longer hold back her excitement .

In front of the Lakers bench, Kobe chewed gum, looked at Curry, smiled and applauded, as if he saw the high-spirited self in the past, memories flashed in his eyes, and then he returned to calm.

Kobe has won everything, and the MVP has long been out of his appreciation. The championship is the only goal he is chasing.

The MVP stopped in front of him, so he would step over the MVP, and no one could stop him.

In front of the Warriors bench, the Warriors players clapped vigorously or waved towels, trying their best to enhance the atmosphere.

Butler looked at Curry, who was under the spotlight, and a look of envy flashed in his eyes, and then his eyes became more and more determined, full of fighting spirit.

Clay's expression was still as calm as ever, but he quietly clenched his right hand and shook his head slightly, as if he was a little dissatisfied with himself now.

Green, Leonard, Jeremy Lin, Chandler... In front of Curry who won the MVP trophy, everyone had different thoughts in their hearts, but in the end they looked at Curry with joy and joy. eager.

They are happy that Curry was elected MVP, but they also want to be in the spotlight.

Ambition and aspirations burst forth at this moment.

In front of everyone, Zhang Yu put his hands in his pockets and stood there quietly, staring at the award-winning Curry with a smile on his face, complex eyes, and his posture has not changed for a long time.

At this moment, listening to the tsunami-like shouts in his ears, he recalled the afternoon when Curry came to Butler University to participate in the trial training.

At that time, Curry was rejected by all the prestigious schools, and it was the most frustrating time. Only Zhang Yu knew how much energy this thin, baby-faced high school student contained in his physical fitness.

Now, six years later, the world has seen how powerful Curry is.

On the court, Curry put the trophy back on the table, returned to the bench, ignored the teammates who came up, hugged Zhang Yu, and said:

"Boss, I did it!"

Zhang Yu patted him on the back and said with a smile:

"Stephen, this is just the beginning, you won't just win one MVP."

Curry nodded heavily and said:
"Boss, I have only one goal now - the championship!"

　There is still a shortfall of [-], ask for a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!
