v3 Chapter 902： Pelicans championship ring

After the Warriors and Spurs, the referee question was heated, but the attention of the fans the next day was attracted by another game.

Pelicans and Cavaliers, the opponents of last season's finals, will have their season openers at the Pelicans' home.

The scene where 3 to 1 was forced to 3 to 3 last season is still vivid in the scene, and Tang Tian's performance of 62 in the seventh quarter was also as if yesterday.

At the beginning of the season, the two teams ushered in an encounter. The league is already familiar with shaping its rivals.

And this season the Cavaliers also signed Whiteside, the only veteran who has fallen out with the Pelicans.

At the beginning of the season, the league gave fans a gluttonous meal.

On the day of the game, the Cavaliers conducted open training in the training hall.

The field is training, and the stadium is full of reporters.

Such a full-fledged focus battle, they have to change things before the game.

The mentality of the Cavaliers players looks very good, the players are talking and laughing, James also relaxed with Whiteside to practice one-on-one offense and defense.

From these, it can be seen that the Cavaliers are determined to win the championship in the new season and are confident in the game that is about to start.

After the training, the reporters swarmed up, and the head coach Tyronn Lu, the team's core James, gathered a large number of fans.

But in addition to them, there was another person who was surrounded by reporters in three layers, not Irving or Love, but Whiteside.

Whiteside and the Pelicans are known for their grievances, but his strength is not bad, and he was a quasi-All-Star at the Heat last season.

The contract he signed for joining the Cavaliers is also the salary of the fourth giant.

And his not-so-good personality is also known as his exposure increases.

It is easiest for a reporter to order something.

"What do you think of the Pelicans tonight? We all know that you have played for the Pelicans for two seasons."

The reporter's first question was very straightforward.

"They are paper tigers."

Whiteside did not disappoint the reporter.

"Like their starting center, white and soft, I don't know when the center can start playing like that."

The center in his mouth refers to Jokic. Although it has been more than a year since he left the Pelicans, he is still very uncomfortable with the competition with Jokic.

"Do you think the team can win tonight?"

The reporter then asked.

"of course!"

Whiteside replied without hesitation.

"Before I didn't come here, this team had a tiebreaker against them. Now that I'm here, we will win, and we will easily win."

Whiteside's confidence overflowed.

If it wasn't for the fans who watched the Finals, he would really think that what he said made sense.

The content of Whiteside's interview was reported, and Cavaliers fans were excited.

The Cavaliers' strength is enough. They used to feel that they were a little bit less, but now they find that this is domineering.

James is domineering on the court, but low-key and humble in front of the media, and so are Irving and Love. Now Whiteside is here to make up this one!

Pelican fans were very angry when they saw it.

How did the Cavaliers hit the tie-break last season? There was no point in the game, and Whiteside started to do things himself, and then attacked Jokic.

This is really bad brain!

And fully filled the hatred value!

Other fans think it's not too much to see the excitement. This kind of remarks of Whiteside only makes the originally highly concerned game become more exciting.

On the night of the match day, the New Orleans Arena was full.

Not only because the opponent of the opener is the Cavaliers, but also because as the defending champion, the home season opener will have the award ceremony of the championship ring.

The ring belongs to the team, but the honor belongs to the fans. They will also witness the team's first championship banner hung in the stadium.

On such occasions, no Pelican fan will miss it.

One hour before the game, both team members entered the field in advance for warm-up training.

Tang Tian practiced for a while and sat on the sidelines to rest.

A reporter soon approached him.

"What do you think of Whiteside's remarks?"

What Whiteside's words were said to be sensational after they were reported is now well known.

"that's not important."

Tang Tian answered very casually, and his expression did not care.

The reporter was stunned for a moment. He obviously did not expect Tang Tian to be such an answer.

But looking at Tang Tian's expression is by no means pretending. He really didn't take Whiteside's words or Whiteside into his eyes.

The reporter also understood after recovering that Whiteside was taught by Tang Tian, ​​and he had no problem with his attitude towards the younger brother.

After the warm-up of both sides, the on-site staff soon began to lay out the stage, and both team members returned to the halftime to wait for the award ceremony of the championship ring.

Apart from Tang Tian and Ariza, the other members of the Pelicans looked very excited.

This is the first championship ring of their career.

At this time, the expressions of Deron and West were very special. Looking at the shining championship ring placed in the center of the stadium, the eyes were full of envy.

The two veterans were all-stars of the league when they were at their peak, but they have not been able to win the championship ring so far.

Tang Tian saw it and patted them on the shoulder.

The meaning is clear, not now, but it will be there soon.

Kenny Smith presided over the awards ceremony, league president Adam Xiaohua and Pelicans owner ’s wife Gal Benson came to the scene ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Tom Benson is not able to go out now, now The Pelicans have already been taken care of by his wife.

"Hello, champion fans of New Orleans!"

Smith is a professional commentator and he knows how to shape the atmosphere of the scene. As soon as he speaks, he will stimulate the mood of the New Orleans Arena.

"Charles envy you because you, like me, will immediately have a championship ring."

He then looked in the direction of the Pelicans bench and said that the plastic friendship with Barkley was undoubtedly revealed.

Cheers and whistles sounded at the scene, and the atmosphere was completely brought up.

Xiao Hua smiled, no one knew what he was thinking.

But just like at the end of the tiebreaker last season, the championship ring is waiting for him to be awarded, whether he wants it or not, and whether he is in a good mood or not.

When Smith finished the heat and announced the opening ceremony of the championship ring, the scene lights and camera were aimed at the ring in the center of the stage.

At the top of the ring is the player's jersey number, surrounded by 74 sapphires around the number, representing the Pelicans' 74-win record this season!

There are also 14 diamonds on each side of the ring, representing the team's 14-year history (including the predecessor Hornets),

The player's name is engraved on the side of the ring, with 4 to 0 and 4 to 3 below the name, representing their scores in the Western Conference Finals and Finals, respectively.

This ring is full of honor and history. Not only is there a large number of platinum and diamond combinations, but each ring is unique!

According to the news before the game, the cost of this ring is only 1 million US dollars!

The first ring of the Pelicans team, the team's top team really made a **** start!
