Chapter 287 The building will collapse

"Thanks to this city for giving me a place to stay in a foreign country; thanks to this Lakers for allowing me to realize my own value; thanks to my teammates and coaches, and every staff member of the team, you made me feel the taste of the championship; thanks to my girlfriend, Amy, you made me feel like home here;"

Chen Cheng let out a long sigh and turned his attention to Kobe on the seat.

"Finally, I want to thank Mr. Kobe Bryant, who is a very competent team leader and a big brother. It was him who reached out to help me through the difficulties without hesitation when I encountered difficulties. It was him who taught me to be tenacious, tenacious, diligent, never give up, never give up! Thank you, Kobe!"

Chen Cheng's speech was very sincere. Kobe shook his arms at him on the seat, shook his body, and made a very stingy feeling.

When he returns to the seat, it is Payton and Malone's turn to make the finale.

These two veterans paid a salary to invest in order to get a championship ring and leave no regrets in their careers.

Now they finally got what they wanted.

Two veterans who had been fighting in the NBA for almost 20 years were in a state of emotion at this moment.

Gary Payton seemed to have not recovered from the ecstasy of winning the championship, and said a lot incoherently. In the end, even he himself didn't know what he was saying, so he stuffed the microphone to Malone.

"I played with the Utah Jazz for 18 years and I also got all the honors I could get, except, this!" Malone raised the championship trophy under her feet again.

"When Gary called me to Los Angeles, I had already thought about it. No matter what the result of this season, it will be the last season of my career..."

Before Ma Long finished speaking, he was immediately interrupted by the audience.

"Try another year!"

"Try another year!"

Ma Long lowered his head and smiled, tidied up the brim of his hat.

"Thank you, I will definitely consider this issue seriously. Because the injury has not been completely cured, I need to take a break and then make a comprehensive assessment of my body. So, thank you, thank you la, thank you Lakers, I love you!"

The player's speech ended, and the head coach made a summary statement.

Phil Jackson's appearance attracted cheers and applause from the fans present.

He summarized some of the problems that the Lakers have encountered this season and expressed his affirmation of the team's achievements. Of course, the strong support of the financial backers behind the team is indispensable.

Next, it is time for everyone to enjoy the holiday. As for how next season will be, there is no need to consider it now.

"Enjoy now!"

The players raised their champagne in their hands and threw it all out, sharing this wonderful moment with the fans.

After several days of carnival, Chen Cheng finally had a thorough rest.

The Basketball Association also gave him an additional green light, allowing him to report to the team in mid-July, three days before the men's basketball warm-up match.

This is what head coach Harris means.

Moreover, Chen Cheng's performance in the playoffs also made him feel very relieved. The entire coaching staff is full of hope for Chen Cheng's future games.

Taking advantage of this rare short vacation, Chen Cheng and Xinjie started a short self-driving journey together.

After that, he will fly to Chicago, go to Glover's training camp, and then accept his week-long "destruction".

Then he returned to China early and attended the opening ceremony of Cannon Baker's Chinese training camp.

Then we went to the national team to report and start preparations for the Athens Olympics.

The two set off from the West Coast and headed to Miami on the East Coast, with the goal of completing a journey across the American continent.

Just as the two of them were on their third day of their trip, Yang Yuxin received a call from editor-in-chief Bill.

Bill's phone was concise and said only one sentence: "There is something wrong in the Lakers' locker room!"

Chen Cheng, who was speeding on the highway, felt a sudden slap in his heart when he heard this.

The two of them were traveling and suddenly fell to the bottom of the valley. They found the nearest service area, parked their cars, and found all the sources of information they could find.

The result made Chen Cheng fall into an ice cave.

Major sports news media in the United States have received revelations, which are derived from the oral narration of a policeman named Winters.

The policeman had some communication with Kobe Eagle County incident and also recorded the records.

Logically speaking, the content of the conversation between them cannot be made public. For some reason, it was suddenly exposed at this time.

Of course, the content is the sentence that is enough to make the Lakers' locker room explode in an instant, "I should learn from Shaq how to settle these things. If Shaq encounters such a thing, he might not hesitate to let the other party 1 million dollars to calm this matter."

It was later rumored as the saying "Shak also did it."

In Chen Cheng's impression, this inquiry and transcript occurred in 2003. It was precisely because of this incident that the relationship between ok had an irreversible crack, which eventually led to their parting ways.

But now this incident has been so long, but it was exposed at the critical moment of the team's championship.

The ultimate goal of the mastermind behind this matter is to completely break up the Lakers team.

Chen Cheng called Kobe, and the phone was already shut down.

Obviously he got the news earlier.

Now we are avoiding the bombardment of the media.

At this time, in a wine estate in California, Jim Bass was hugging two hot beauties, holding the phone in one hand and shaking the champagne in the other.

A phone ringing sounded and Jim answered the phone.

A voice came from the other end of the phone: "Dr. Bass and Jenny asked me to prepare for a press conference as soon as possible. Shaq and Kobe's phone number have completely lost contact."

"Very good, next, throw out the heavy stuff we collected one by one."

Jim's mouth showed a sly smile.

Just as Chen Cheng drove to Los Angeles, Yang Yuxin's phone rang again.

"The media has received news from insiders that Carl Malone once made some verbal teasings on Kobe's wife Vanessa during her injury during her home game..."

Yang Yuxin's mobile phone was turned on with the amplifier, and Chen Cheng listened to the content on the phone, and was sweating the mainstream.

The opponent obviously came prepared and wanted to upend the Lakers' locker room.

But who is this person?

Just as he was thinking hard, the third explosive news came.

Videos of Gary Payton playing at a famous strip club in New York were uploaded to the American video website.

In the video, Payton holds a bottle of wine in his hand, which detracts Chen Cheng from being worthless, and his words are mixed with many words related to racial content.

During that period, it was the time when fierce conflicts arose between veterans like Chen Cheng and Payton. Now, these contradictions have long been resolved one by one.

However, netizens don’t care about this. They just forwarded it wildly and reposted the video on forums of major Chinese communities.

A few days ago, everyone was immersed in the joy of winning the championship. At this moment, the locker room has begun to collapse from the inside.
