On March 8th, Beijing time, the Warriors’ Dream Chaser and former NBA star Pierce appeared on the latest podcast. In the show, Chai Meng said that he planned to play for another two or three years and retire. He also said that he would not announce his final season in advance unless he could catch Curry's ride and pretend that it was his farewell tour.
Pierce asked on the show how long he wanted to play for Dream Chaser. Chase Dream’s answer was two or three years, but there was no exact time. "I can't (announce my retirement in advance) because someone will ridicule me like I said to you, and then I'm done," Dream Chasing said to Pierce with a smile.
Dream Chasing once complained about Pierce in a game in 2017: "Chasing a farewell tour? They don't love you that much. Do you think you are Kobe?"
Dream Chasing has won 4 championships and been selected to the All-NBA Team 4 times. Star, 2-time All-NBA selection and 8-time All-Defensive team selection. In the 2016-17 season, Chai Meng became the Defensive Player of the Year. Without him, it would be difficult for the Warriors to win four championships. Like Curry, Thompson, and Cole, he is part of the core of this dynasty. However, his character has often aroused heated discussions. The suspension controversy this season made him the focus of heated discussions in the media.
Pierce is also very funny, and strongly urged Dream to perform a farewell tour. Chai Meng joked that there is only one prerequisite for his farewell tour. “The only chance I have of announcing my final season in advance is if it happens to be Curry’s last year and Klay’s last year, because then I can ride on Curry’s bandwagon and pretend it’s my farewell tour. Yes, hahaha!" Hearing Zhui Meng's response, Pierce burst out laughing.
So far this season, the 34-year-old Dream Chaser is averaging 9.1 points, 7 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game. The Warriors have 33 wins and 28 losses, ranking ninth in the Western Conference.
