Chapter 164: Yao Says He'll Blow You Up

"Da Yao, why are you here too?"

Sun Hao really didn't expect Yao Ming to come with Wang Zhizhi!

"The club game was over, so I came with it when I had the chance."

Yao Ming still looked a little shy, but compared to Wang Zhizhi, he was much more open.

Thanks to Nelson's car being an SUV, Yao Ming really wouldn't be able to sit in.

In the car, Yao Ming kept asking Sun Hao and the NBA questions like the last time they met.

He even asked how O'Neill played.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Sun Hao could feel that Yao Ming seemed to be a little impatient for the NBA.

Whether it was playing in the summer league in Long Beach or after the Sydney Olympics, when the reporter asked him if he could play in the NBA, the simple and direct "ability" could be felt.

And Yao Ming respects Sun Hao very much, although he is older in age, but he is called Brother Hao like Yi Jianlian.

This brother is not in age, but in personal ability.

Sun Hao is the first Chinese to land in the NBA to play.

However, Yao Ming's unexpected appearance also has a small problem.

Originally, the Mavericks arranged for Wang Zhizhi to live in a hotel, of course, the cost was the kind from Wang Zhizhi.

Sun Hao knew that Wang Zhizhi's income in China was not high, and the hotel in the United States was expensive, so he directly said that Wang Zhizhi would live in his own house first.

Wait until Wang Zhizhi finds a place to rent, and then move out.

Anyway, he has two rooms, which are empty and empty, so he can save a lot of trouble.

But when Yao Ming came, they had to find a hotel temporarily.

"Brother Hao, do you have a sofa at home? I can sleep on the couch. ”

Yao Mingsheng read "Emotional Intelligence" by heart, and knew that because he was going to go to the hotel, he immediately asked.

Sleeping on the couch?

This is to be Jeremy Lin in advance!

Of course, Sun Hao didn't agree.

Just rushed to Brother Hao, it was impossible to let Yao Ming sleep on the sofa.

Of course, there is another point, who has such a long sofa for Yao Ming to sleep on?

After finding the hotel, Sun Hao was ready to go to the team with Wang Zhizhi.

Yao Ming's words planned for him to go around on his own first.

However, Little Nelson directly pulled Yao Ming on.

Yao Ming is not the same as Sun Hao and Wang Zhizhi, he belongs to the kind of talent that is visible to the naked eye.

Especially now that the trend of big men is popular all over the world, Yao Ming, a natural giant, is absolutely fragrant.

Little Nelson certainly had an idea.

Now that Sun Hao and Wang Zhizhi are here, if they get Yao Ming again, he will really get half of the Chinese team to the team.

So, a carload of people arrived at the hotel, and when they left, it was also a carload of people.

When they arrived at the stadium, the three of them separated.

Wang Zhizhi and the accompanying translator were taken to the general manager's office by Nelson Jr. to sign the contract, and Yao Ming was arranged by Nelson Jr. to visit the stadium by the staff.

Sun Hao, of course, went to the training.

After Sun Hao's training, he rested in the locker room with his teammates.

Wang Zhizhi was also brought to the locker room by Nelson Jr. at this time.

"Guys, our new member, Wang."

After the introduction, Nelson Jr. also specially told the players not to "bully" Wang Zhizhi.

He loves Chinese culture deeply, not only for Sun Hao, but also for Wang Zhizhi.

The atmosphere in the Mavericks team was good, and Nelson Jr. explained, and the players all got up to greet Wang Zhizhi one after another.

Wang Zhizhi just smiled and nodded in response.

Because it was just a simple greeting, the interpreter on the side didn't say much.

Just when Sun Hao thought that Wang Zhizhi couldn't let go of his hands and feet.

"Three grams of oil."

Wang Zhizhi said thank you for the taste of "".

He almost fell to the ground.

Good guys, this is much more Chinese than Yi Jianlian.

As soon as you open your mouth, you know that there is wood.

Sun Hao suddenly realized that Wang Zhizhi's so-called introversion in history may have a lot to do with English!

Well, but that's not a bad thing.

In the future, he and Yi Jianlian can hold an English study class together.

With his scalp on his head, he probably didn't understand a few words, and Wang Zhizhi took a long breath when he walked to his wardrobe and sat down.

He has a lot more things to adapt to than Sun Hao.

After a while, old Nelson came.

After announcing tomorrow's game schedule, he asked Harris to take Wang Zhizhi to familiarize himself with the tactics.

After the Mavericks confirmed that Wang Zhizhi would come, they cut Obiena Ikec, who was traded from the Wizards, before the buyout deadline.

Because the NBA has rules that only players who are cut before the buyout deadline can play in the playoffs with the team.

So the Mavericks' approach is to give Acke a chance.

Similarly, the Spurs cut Raja Bell, who previously played in the summer league with Sun Hao, who signed with the 76ers soon after, is a similar reason.

However, this operation also shows the importance that the Mavericks attach to Wang Zhizhi.

And looking at the arrangement of the old Nelson, I also want Wang Zhizhi to adapt to the team as soon as possible and play as soon as possible.

Wang Zhizhi took another long breath when he got up.

This emphasis is also a pressure.

Sun Hao got up at this time and patted him on the shoulder.

"Del people are very talkative, don't be nervous, there is me, if you don't understand, you can ask me at any time."

There is nothing wrong with Sun Hao's words, taking care of each other in a foreign country, with him, Wang Zhizhi will adapt much better than in history.

Not to mention anything else, this Wang Zhizhi plays better, and he will have many helpers in the national team in the future.

Going around and around, helping Wang Zhizhi is still helping himself.

Wang Zhizhi was taken away by Harris, and the players left one after another after finishing training.

Yao Ming hasn't come back yet, Sun Hao wants to wait for the two of them to leave together, and then treat them to a meal or something.

Seeing that Easley hadn't left yet, he walked over and sat down.

There was something he wanted to ask Easley.

"Howard, do you know Jason Kidd well?"

During the All-Star Game before, Sun Hao thought that Kidd was quite weird.

It's just that he was robbed of the starter, so he shouldn't ignore him like that, and he looks a little unhappy.

That's the personality that only Peyton has.

"What? Want to hear stories again? ”

Sun Hao is one of the few loyal listeners in the Mavericks, and Easley also enjoys sharing stories with Sun Hao.

Sun Hao nodded, he had already listened to it.

"Jason's words, he has a lot of connections with Dallas."

In fact, there is no need for Easley to say, Sun Hao also knows the relationship between Kidd and the Mavericks.

If nothing else, 7 of the 19-year career has been spent with the Mavericks.

He was drafted by the Mavericks in 1994, returned to the Mavericks in 2007, and won the only championship of his career with the Mavericks in 2011.

At best, a Dallas native left his hometown, and finally came back to his hometown after a long walk and finally ascended the throne in his hometown.

At worst, I just couldn't get along outside, and finally came back disgraced, holding Nowitzki's thigh and winning the only championship.

And the reason why there is that bad statement is the story that Easley said.

The theme of this story is called the Dallas Three.

Jason Kidd, Jimmy Jackson, Jemo Mashburn.

Because all three people have the letter J in their names, and they are all players selected by the Mavericks themselves, hence the name.

The Dallas Triad was in high spirits at the time.

The first to land on the Mavericks was Jimmy Jackson, the No. 4 pick in 1992, who averaged 16.3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game in his rookie season and was an all-around shooting guard.

Next up was Jemo Mashburn, the No. 4 pick in 1993, who had 19.2 points, 4.7 rebounds and 4.6 assists in his rookie season and was an all-around small forward.

This is the "Jordan" that Sun Hao met with the Hornets before.

Finally, there is Kidd, who was drafted in 1994, averaged 11.7 points, 5.4 rebounds and 7.7 assists per game in his rookie season, and was a proper team engine.

These three people can be said to be quite a match, one super assist and two super scorers.

In fact, in Kidd's rookie year, Jackson's stats were 25.7 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists, and Mashburn's stats were 24.1 points, 4 rebounds, 1 board and 3.7 assists.

The trio are averaging 61.5 points per game, improving the team's record from 22 wins the previous year to 36.

Infinite youth and talent.

Everyone can see that with a little run-in, they can grow into the alliance's new trio, trident, and even the triumvirate.

Promising.

But all of this was ruined because of one woman.

The woman's name was Donnie Breston, and Kidd and Jackson were in love with her at the same time.

Don't think Kidd is a high-spirited person, at that time, in order to curry favor with Breston, he had no bottom line on and off the court.

"It's hard for people to see Kidd passing the ball to Jackson."

"I've forgotten when Kidd last passed to Jackson."

That's the word used in media reports at the time.

And in front of the media, Kidd has completely forgotten about the team.

'Even if I'm in an unguarded position, he'd rather pass the ball to the referee than me as a team-mate.

Jackson complained in front of reporters.

"This guy thinks only about himself and never thinks about other people's feelings, why do I have to pass the ball to him?"

Kidd's response was quite direct.

Management involvement will not change the situation at all.

In front of the woman, Kidd has completely lost his mind.

As a result, the management could not stand this situation, and Kidd, the initiator, was the first to be traded away.

Immediately afterwards, Mashburn and Jackson were also sent away one after another, and the promising trio was disbanded.

Ironically, Donnie Breston never ended up in a relationship with Kidd.

Ironically, just over a year after being traded to Phoenix, he married his current wife, Jumana.

"Jason hates this place in Dallas because of those unpleasant experiences."

Easley concluded.

Sun Hao nodded after listening, and he seemed to understand why Kidd had that attitude at the All-Star Game.

Kidd doesn't like Dallas and the Mavericks right now, and he grabbed his starter again, and he can have a good attitude.

But whether it's for the sake of a woman who doesn't care about the team, or the attitude of an All-Star, Kidd is not a good person!

Just after chatting, Wang Zhizhi and Yao Ming came back together.

Yao Ming's face was full of smiles.

"The NBA is really advanced, a lot of the equipment here is not available in China, and those equipment are really good."

After Yao Ming came in, he sighed to Sun Hao.

It's not a question of whether the moon is round or not in foreign countries, it's really a gap in technology.

"There will be, and there will be."

Sun Hao replied with a smile.

"Well, there will be, and I will find a way to make it have in the future."

Yao Ming's next words surprised Sun Hao.

He didn't expect Yao Ming to have such great ambitions at his age.

But this may be Yao Ming.

Otherwise, after retiring from the military in history, it would be impossible for him to let go of a lot of money-making bosses to be the thankless and professional chairman of the Basketball Association.

The next day, Wang Zhizhi participated in the training with the team.

And little Nelson let Yao Ming visit the site for the first time.

Wang Zhizhi, like Sun Hao, was placed on the bench when he first joined the Mavericks.

Although not as amazing as Sun Hao at the beginning, Wang Zhizhi still showed good instant combat power.

You must know that he just finished playing CBA in China, and his body is still completely in a state of competition.

The only thing that he didn't adapt to was the three-point line, the NBA's three-point line was much farther than the CBA's, and his shots were obviously short.

"Can I play?"

Yao Ming watched a paragraph on the sidelines, and couldn't help but turn his head to little Nelson and asked.

"What?"

Nelson Jr. thought he had misheard.

"I can help the white team."

Yao Ming is very direct, and the white team he said is the team that Wang Zhizhi is in.

Little Nelson understood, but he smiled and shook his head.

Yao Ming's body can't play a game of this intensity on the court.

Yao Ming shook his head in disappointment after seeing Nelson's reaction.

Cuban was also on the team at this time, and Nelson Jr. turned his head and chatted with him.

When little Nelson returned, he introduced Yao Ming to Cuban again.

"Can I get on the pitch?"

After Yao Ming knew that Cuban was the owner of the Mavericks, he couldn't help but speak again.

He really looks like he has itchy hands and itchy hearts.

Cuban was also stunned for a moment, and he laughed along.

"Wait until they're done."

However, unlike Nelson Jr.'s reaction, Cuban was a little interested in the big Chinese man who suddenly appeared in front of him.

Yao Ming was overjoyed when he heard it, and he actually began to warm up on the sidelines.

This made Cuban laugh again.

This big guy is funny.

After the practice over there, Cuban signaled that Harris arranged for second-year rookie Booth and Yao Ming to go head-to-head.

At 2.11,104 kilograms, Booth was a second-round pick last year, but he averaged 4.5 points and 4.4 rebounds per game with the Wizards this season, and is the kind of player who has proven that he can stay in the NBA.

Harris also didn't want Yao Ming to be too ugly.

After all, he is familiar with Little Nelson and knows Little Nelson's China complex.

Booth didn't understand the team's arrangement.

Although the big yellow man in front of him was more than half a head taller than him, he was too thin, like a skeleton.

The key is that he is too young, and he looks like a college student who has never played a profession.

The two are not in the same dimension, and such a heads-up is meaningless.

However, the arrangement of the team owner, he has just arrived in the team, and it is impossible for him to refuse such a request.

"Yellow-skinned, I won't be too ruthless."

Booth's emotional intelligence looks okay, and the amateur players who can be arranged by the team owner to be in the same position with him have some background.

Yao Ming turned his head to look at Sun Hao, his English is now estimated to be at the same level as Wang Zhizhi.

"He said he'd let you."

Sun Hao became a part-time translator.

"You tell him not to let me, and if he lets me, I don't know if I can play in the NBA."

Yao Ming was a little anxious when he heard this.

Sun Hao smiled when he heard it, daring to love Yao Ming was to see the gap between himself and the NBA.

But it's not surprising, whether it's summer league or yesterday, Yao Ming behaves like a curious baby, full of desire for the NBA.

"Calvin, he said he was going to blow you up."

Sun Hao turned his head to Booth and translated.
