Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

The next afternoon, when the first ray of sunlight broke through the clouds and shone on the land of Brooklyn, the Nets were ready and boarded the plane to the city they loved.

The plane slowly rose and took them to the place that would be flooded with glory and joy.

Their hearts are full of anticipation, because at this time tomorrow, they will board the sightseeing bus and have their own championship parade.

That night, when the Nets plane landed steadily at the Brooklyn airport, the players' emotions reached a boiling point.

They knew that a grand welcome ceremony was waiting for them.

However, when they just got off the plane and saw that the hall not far away was already crowded with people, they couldn't help but be shocked by the scene before them.

A large number of fans almost surrounded the airport. They were wearing colorful Nets jerseys, holding up slogans and banners, and cheering.

The local police also dispatched a large number of police officers to maintain order at the scene, but even so, the enthusiasm of the fans was like a surging tide and was difficult to stop.

Brunson looked at the scene in front of him and said in surprise: "My goodness, how many people are here? It's like they are going to overturn the airport!"

Durant looked calm. He smiled and shook his head, saying, "I think half of Brooklyn's fans are here, and there's no room for them. I think fans from other cities also came to pick us up at the airport. I'm used to this kind of scene."

Indeed, for veterans like Durant, this kind of scene is not uncommon.

But even so, he was infected by the enthusiasm of the fans and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

There are so many popular players on this Nets team now, and the brilliant record of two championships in three years has made the Nets the pride of Brooklyn.

Everyone expects the Nets to establish a dynasty and become a legendary team in NBA history.

Some players who had just joined the team in the summer and won the championship with the Nets were even more excited. They seemed to be in a dream and couldn't believe that all this was real.

They looked at the fans around them, listened to their cheers, and felt the glory and joy of being champions.

As the team's head coach, Lu Yong also smiled as he looked at the excitement on the players' faces and the crowds of fans outside.

He knew that all this was earned by the players' sweat and hard work, and was the glory they deserved.

As several people walked into the hall, even louder cheers rang out.

The fans, wearing Nets jerseys of various numbers and styles, cheered loudly and waved their hands wildly.

They shouted the players' names, expressing their love and support for them.

"Brunson! You're the best!" a fan shouted.

"Durant! You are our hero!" another fan waved a sign and shouted excitedly.

"Nets! Nets! Champions! Champions!" The fans' cheers echoed throughout the airport.

Lu Yong led the players to wave to the fans around them, with happy smiles on their faces.

From the airport aisle to the parking lot, Lu Yong's ears were constantly filled with the cheers and blessings of the fans.

He felt extremely proud and satisfied because he knew that all this was the result of the joint efforts of him and his players.

When the Nets boarded the team bus, the fans' cheers continued.

They watched the Nets leave the airport, their eyes sparkling with anticipation and blessings.

This team is their pride and their belief, and they will always support them.

The bus slowly drove away from the airport. The players sat in the bus, looking at the scenery passing by outside the window, their hearts filled with emotion and anticipation.

They know that the coming days will be a new journey, and they will continue to train hard to bring more exciting games to the fans.

On the bus, the players began to share their moods and feelings with each other.

They talked about the wonderful moments in the game, the enthusiasm and support of the fans, and the plans and goals for the future.

Everyone's faces were filled with smiles and their hearts were filled with hopes and dreams.

Lu Yong sat quietly aside, watching the players' laughter and joy, his heart filled with relief and satisfaction.

He knew that this team had become a true championship team with strong strength and firm belief.

He believes that in the days to come, they will create more miracles and brilliance.

It is worth mentioning that among the people who boarded the bus with the Nets, there was an eye-catching figure - Chinese center Zhou Qi.

His tall stature and yellow skin made him stand out in the crowd, especially when he walked with Ding Yanyuhang, another player from China, he attracted the attention of countless media.

Reporters raised their cameras to capture this rare scene.

Two Chinese players, Zhou Qi and Ding Yanyuhang, stood side by side, their faces filled with pride and expectation.

In less than half an hour, this photo was transmitted to China across the ocean through social platforms, and quickly caused a sensation on the Internet.

Countless fans flocked to the link to this news and left messages to express their surprise and expectation.

The surge in the number of users and comments caused the servers of major platforms to be overloaded in a short period of time, which is enough to show how popular the Nets are in China now.

"What's going on? How did Zhou Qi get mixed up with the Nets? Is he going to join the Nets next season?" A fan left a message in the comment section, his tone full of surprise and curiosity.

"Haha, it seems like our Chinese players are going to shine in the NBA! Zhou Qi and Ding Yanyuhang are both the pride of our country!" another fan replied, his tone full of pride.

"Maybe Lu Yong wants to promote Chinese players. By the way, it would be great if Zhou Qi really joins the Nets next season! Having two Chinese players playing for the same NBA team at the same time, this has never happened in NBA history, right?" A senior NBA fan analyzed, his tone full of expectation and longing.

"Although Zhou Qi's performance in international competitions is a bit unbearable to watch, he is still the most talented big man in China after Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian. I hope he can become better with the help of Lu Yong and become the pillar of the Chinese men's basketball team in the future!"

A fan who is very fond of Chinese basketball left a message, his tone revealing his high expectations for Zhou Qi.

"Wow, Zhou Qi is on the road to a comeback! From an outcast of the Rockets to a potential player of the Nets, this is simply an inspirational movie! I look forward to his performance next season and hope he can bring us more surprises!"

"Haha, it seems that the spring of Chinese basketball is really coming! Zhou Qi and Ding Yanyuhang are both treasures of our country! I hope they can shine in the NBA and bring glory to our country!"

"Although Zhou Qi's performance in the Rockets was not good before, I believe that under the guidance of Lu Yong, he will be able to regain his form and become an important player in the Nets. After all, Lu Yong is one of our family members, and he will definitely give Zhou Qi more opportunities and help!"

"Oh, I'm really looking forward to next season! Imagine the scene of Zhou Qi and Ding Yanyuhang playing for the Nets at the same time, it would be so exciting! I hope they can work together to win more honors and victories for the Nets!"

Every comment from the fans revealed their expectations and blessings for Zhou Qi. They hoped that this big man who had been frustrated in the international arena could find his own stage in the Nets. Although Zhou Qi played very poorly when he played for the Rockets and was eliminated by the league soon, Lu Yong is a family member after all. If he can accept Zhou Qi and help him train in the atmosphere of a championship team like the Nets, then Zhou Qi's future achievements will definitely be higher than staying in the CBA.

On domestic social media, the names of Zhou Qi and Ding Yanyuhang quickly became hot topics.

Fans are speculating about the possibility of Zhou Qi joining the Nets and his future development prospects in the NBA.

They are looking forward to these two Chinese players fighting together on the NBA stage to bring glory to Chinese basketball.

Zhou Qi himself also appeared very low-key and humble when facing the attention of the media and fans.

He said he was very grateful to Lu Yong and the Nets for giving him the opportunity, and he would cherish this rare experience, train hard and improve his strength.

At the same time, he also expressed his respect and expectations for Ding Yanyuhang, hoping that the two could work together to win more victories for the Nets in future games.

As Ding Yanyuhang gradually emerged on the NBA stage, Chinese basketball has also ushered in new development opportunities.

More and more young players are beginning to dream of entering the NBA and bringing glory to Chinese basketball.

Ding Yanyuhang's success has undoubtedly set an example for them and inspired them to keep moving forward.

In the days to come, Zhou Qi and Ding Yanyuhang will join hands to compete for the Nets in the NBA.

Domestic fans will continue to pay attention to Zhou Qi and Ding Yanyuhang's performance in the NBA.

They are looking forward to the two Chinese players working together in future games to win more honors and victories for Chinese basketball.

In the night sky of Brooklyn, the Nets bus slowly drove by.

Zhou Qi and Ding Yanyuhang sat in the car, their faces filled with anticipation and longing.

They know that the road ahead is still long, but they also believe that as long as they have dreams in their hearts and strength under their feet, they will be able to go further and fly higher.

That night, Lu Yong had just returned to his villa in Brooklyn and had not had time to wash up when he received a call from league commissioner Adam Silver.

As soon as he saw the caller ID, Lu Yong couldn't help but frowned slightly, and a feeling of displeasure surged in his heart.

He still can't forget the referee's bias in Game 4 of the Finals.

The Lakers received "special care" from the referee in that game, while the Nets had to try their best to finally win the victory with difficulty.

Lu Yong knew very well that Xiao Hua was probably responsible for this.

Despite being angry, Lu Yong still answered the phone.

After all, there will be a lot of collaboration between the two, and he needs to maintain a professional demeanor.

"Hey, Lu, congratulations to the Nets on winning the championship!" Silver's voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of pride and congratulations.

Lu Yong's response was not enthusiastic, even a little cold, and he simply said: "Thank you."

Silver seemed to sense Lu Yong's indifference, but he didn't care. Instead, he continued, "Lu, I know you are a little dissatisfied with the referee in Game 4. But for business reasons, I did give some instructions to the referee. However, I didn't mean to target the Nets. You should know that I respect and appreciate you."

Lu Yong sneered in his heart. He knew that Xiao Hua would not target him.

After all, he has made great contributions to the promotion and commercialization of the NBA in the past two years.

Xiao Hua explained to me at this time probably because he didn't want to make things too awkward.

After all, if Lu Yong really insists on making a big fuss about this matter, it will not be of any benefit to the NBA and Silver.

Thinking of this, Lu Yong's tone softened a little, and he said, "Adam, I know that the NBA is a commercial league, and I can understand your approach. Fortunately, the Nets eventually swept the Lakers 4:0 to win the championship, so I don't want to pursue the past anymore."

Xiao Hua secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

He knew that Lu Yong was a smart man and would not get entangled in this matter.

So he changed the subject and said, "Lu, I heard that your Nets team is interested in signing Chinese player Zhou Qi next season? Is this true?"

Lu Yong smiled and said, "You are well-informed. Yes, I will let Zhou Qi join the Nets next season. I believe in his talent and potential, and I believe he can make a name for himself in the NBA."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hua nodded secretly in his heart.

He knows that Zhou Qi is the future star of Chinese basketball, and if he can make a name for himself in the NBA, it will undoubtedly be a good thing for the NBA.

So he said, "Lu, you have a unique vision. It is a good thing for the NBA to have more Chinese players playing in the NBA. This will not only further expand the Chinese basketball market, but also make the NBA more diversified and international."

Hearing this, Lu Yong sneered in his heart.

He knew that Xiao Hua only cared about commercial interests, but he didn't care.

After all, he also needs the NBA platform to showcase his talent and strength.

So, he said: "Adam, don't worry. I will do my best to train Zhou Qi and make him a rising star in the NBA. At the same time, I also hope that the league can give our Nets more support and help."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hua nodded secretly in his heart.

He knows that Lu Yong is an ambitious and capable person, and he believes that he can lead the Nets to go further.

So he said, "Lu, don't worry. The NBA will continue to support you Nets. At the same time, I also hope that you can continue to contribute to the development and promotion of the NBA."

The two exchanged a few simple pleasantries on the phone, and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed.

Xiao Hua seemed to be in a good mood. After chatting with Lu Yong for a few more words, he hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yong took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly.

He knew that the battle with Xiao Hua was not over, but had just begun.

In the future, he will need to work harder to lead the Nets to higher heights.

At the same time, he also needs to be more cautious in dealing with the various challenges and tests from Silver and the NBA.

Thinking of this, a hint of determination and resoluteness flashed in Lu Yong's eyes. (End of this chapter)
