Chapter 167: Yao Ming's Decision
The two of them came to Sun Hao's side and unconsciously glanced at each other.
They didn't know each other before.
Sun Hao also had an inexplicable feeling when he saw the two in the same frame.
In history, Yao Ming in 2002 and James in 2003, the two are consecutive champions.
Because they are in different districts, they don't have much intersection with each other.
But one game that stood out to him was a regular season game in 2009.
At that time, the Cavaliers had the best record in the league, and James was in full swing.
But that game was one of the worst of James' career.
In that game, he faced Artest and Battier's wheel battle, coupled with Yao Ming's interior guard, he scored 21 points, 1 board and 0 assists on 7-of-21 shooting in the game.
The Cavaliers also ended up losing to Houston 74-93.
That's right, 0 assists, and that was the only game in James' NBA career without an assist, which is known for his versatility.
Now because of Sun Hao's appearance, the two met before entering the alliance.
I don't know if that game will happen again, but if it does, it will be very interesting to look back on this scene in a few years.
Sun Hao also took the opportunity to introduce the two to each other.
"Sun, thank you for the invitation before, I learned a lot in this game, the psychological tactics on the defensive end, that helped me a lot."
James thanked Sun Hao.
Sun Hao's expression was confused with a certain great man, what kind of psychological warfare?
But looking at James' grateful look, he was embarrassed to interrupt, just smiled and nodded.
At this time, there were staff on site distributing burritos after the game.
Sun Hao saw that James didn't have it in his hand, it should be that James was afraid that he wouldn't see him when he went back to the locker room, so he went down to the venue in advance.
Sun Hao turned around and asked the staff for a few.
"Your taco."
Sun Hao handed it to James.
James swallowed.
It was his favorite food, but he learned a lot from Sun Hao tonight.
"No, it's your taco."
James didn't take it, his idea was very simple, to give his favorite to Sun Hao, that is the biggest way to thank him.
Sun Hao's brain was buzzing, and he always felt that he had messed up with some advertisement.
In the end, Sun Hao still forced the burritos to James.
He can't actually eat this kind of play.
After a few more conversations, James left first.
Sun Hao turned around and asked the staff to bring the ball for the game, found a pen, signed his name on it and gave it directly to Yao Ming.
The first time you watch an NBA game, you have to leave something as a souvenir.
Jerseys and shoes are not as significant as the commemorative significance of the ball used in this game.
"Brother Hao, do you have time later?"
Yao Ming was not polite, and suddenly asked again after taking the basketball.
Sun Hao looked at him suspiciously.
"I have a question for your opinion."
Sun Hao nodded, although he was puzzled, Yao Ming didn't ask on the spot, it should be the more important one.
When they returned to the locker room, Nowitzki was very excited to shout and scream inside.
This game was a big morale boost for the team.
And the point is to teach Kidd, whom Dallas hates.
"Sun, we're likely to face them again in the playoffs, and this game is very important."
Easley said to Sun Hao with a smile.
"It seems to be true, nice~"
Sun Hao didn't care too much about the team's ranking before.
But Easley said that.
The Mavericks are third, the Suns are sixth, and according to the playoff rankings, isn't it just two teams playing a series.
With today's style of play, the Mavericks have a very good chance of passing the first round.
The playoffs are approaching, and not only the coaching staff, but also the players are starting to care about the playoff matchups.
Back last year, the Mavericks didn't make the playoffs, and if they passed the first round, it would be more than a small step.
After taking a shower and changing clothes, Sun Hao and Nowitzki said hello to them, and left with Wang Zhizhi first.
Yao Ming was still waiting for them outside.
Wang Zhizhi has not yet found a place to live, and he still lives in Sun Hao's villa.
He took a taxi back first, while Sun Hao stayed and went out to drink coffee with Yao Ming.
Yao Ming said earlier that he had a question to ask himself.
"I'm facing a problem right now."
After a few idle words, Yao Ming began to get into the topic.
"When are you going to get into the NBA?"
Sun Hao thought about it on the way here, and Yao Ming would ask about it.
The longing in Yao Ming's eyes in the past two days was completely undisguised.
Yao Ming nodded, Sun Hao was so fine.
"What do you think of yourself?"
Sun Hao didn't give Yao Ming any advice directly.
Everyone's situation is different.
Like Yi Jianlian before, he belongs to the kind of person who is more introverted and does not have too many opinions.
Well, it's like a younger brother who needs guidance.
Sun Hao brought him to the United States, starting from the NSAA, it was definitely good for him.
But Yao Ming's situation is different.
Especially after a few contacts, he felt that Yao Ming was an assertive and thoughtful person.
"I came this time to see the distance between myself and the NBA players, and yesterday I played that Calvin, and I think I can do it."
Sun Hao nodded, Yao Ming is indeed very active and purposeful in doing things.
To be honest, if it were him, he wouldn't have been able to ask for that in yesterday's situation.
"Including watching the game today, at first I felt the same as yesterday, but when I saw the performance on the field, I felt that I couldn't do it again."
Yao Ming finished speaking.
Wang Zhizhi's performance in the national team and CBA is better than him.
If nothing else, let's just talk about the CBA finals that just finished this year.
Bayi won 3-1 against Shanghai, and Wang Zhizhi's average of 27.5 points per game was better than his 23.5 points.
But Wang Zhizhi's performance in garbage time is very average.
From these words, I can feel that his mentality has experienced ups and downs in the past two days.
In the end, I was completely confused.
"It's actually a multiple-choice question."
Sun Hao thought for a moment and spoke.
"Option 1: Participate in the NBA draft this year, you can enter the NBA training a year earlier, and your progress will improve faster, but the risk is that the order is uncertain and a bit risky.
Option 2: Play for another year, and then enter the NBA after winning the CBA championship and playing better, which is more stable and safer. ”
Sun Hao finally sorted out Yao Ming's clues.
He can't actually give direct advice.
To put it bluntly, Yi Jianlian is because of his bad performance in history, you can start from his bad places, and then try to change him in a good direction.
It's like a game of minesweeper.
But Yao Ming, he is good enough in history.
As Sun Hao said, he actually didn't know whether Yao Ming's election a year ahead of schedule was a good thing or a bad thing for him.
Yao Ming was thoughtful.
Sun Hao analyzed the pros and cons for him, and he did have a lot of clarity in his thinking.
And he didn't ask Sun Hao again.
It's more appropriate for him to do this kind of thing like multiple-choice questions.
……
After the two chatted, Yao Ming took a taxi back to the hotel, and Sun Hao also drove back to the villa.
Don't ask why you don't send it, if you ask, the car can't be plugged in.
With Yao Ming's size, if he really plays in the NBA in the future, it is estimated that he will have to buy a super-large SUV to be enough.
"Eggplant, eggplant"
When I got home, the magpie was there again.
That feeling, as if eggplant is not its name, but Sun Hao's.
"You're back, I saw a wild cat outside the window in front of me, and I stayed for a long time, I don't know if it's still there."
Wang Zhizhi went downstairs and looked at the windowsill as he spoke.
Sun Hao turned his head at this time, only to find that a small head was attached to the glass.
It's the three flowers from last time.
I didn't expect to be alive after so long, and here it is again.
It seems that one person and one cat are quite fateful.
Sun Hao went to get some ham sausages again, remembering that he didn't have enough to eat last time, so he deliberately took a piece of beef.
This time, Sanhua didn't run.
Sun Hao thought he still recognized him, and opened the window to hand over the food.
When he opened the window, he found that Sanhua was already dying.
The stomach is suffocated, and there is a big hole in the leg.
It seems that during the interval, Sanhua had a hard time.
No wonder the magpie didn't speak this time.
Such a three-flower is no longer a threat to it.
Mature guys.
Originally, there were so many wild cats, and Sun Hao didn't have the time to care about it, but this hit his gun, and he didn't care about it.
"Roughly, you help me go upstairs to the storage room and get a cardboard box down."
Wang Zhizhi responded after hearing it.
After a while, Wang Zhizhi took down the cardboard box.
"You've got a lot of trophies upstairs."
With Sun Hao, Wang Zhizhi talked a lot.
It can be seen that Sun Hao's previous judgment was right, Wang Zhizhi's inner line is shy, which is not the same as Yi Jianlian, and there are more language factors.
"Well, I went to the pet hospital, and I don't know if they are still open at night."
Sun Hao carefully carried Sanhua into the cardboard box, and explained to Wang Zhizhi and went out.
In the United States, it is said that the medical system is advanced, but the degree of convenience cannot be compared with that in China.
When people see a doctor, many times they can queue up until they get better.
Therefore, many people do not go to the hospital for minor illnesses.
This is also the reason why you can see those protagonists in American movies who have a medical kit in their families, all of which are forced by life.
But that's for people, pets are still very convenient.
The difference, in the final analysis, is money.
Sun Hao's luck is good, and the nearby pet store is still watching.
Sanhua was soon sent in for treatment.
"Sir, would you like to buy some cat food? These are of decent quality. ”
He was sitting and waiting, and the salesperson in the store was pitching to him.
Sun Hao was idle, got up and listened to the salesperson for a while.
Speaking of which, in Sanhua's state, even if it is saved, it is estimated that it will take a long time to cultivate.
He may be going to become a shovel officer.
Bought cat food, cat litter, a series of messy things and threw them in the car.
By the time he came back, the veterinarian had already come out.
Sanhua's condition is a little better than expected, and it is more malnourished.
As for the opening on the leg, because it was delivered in time, it will be fine if you deal with it.
Don't say it, this little guy is quite smart, and he ran to Sun Hao as soon as he was injured.
Sun Hao didn't take it back immediately, and put it in the pet hospital to recover for a while.
After all, he still has to train for the game, and he can't take care of it.
"Eggplant, eggplant"
When he returned to the villa, Wang Zhizhi had already slept first.
But as soon as the magpie heard his footsteps, he woke up again.
Sun Hao stared at the pile of things and the magpie for a while.
He suddenly thought of a question, if Sanhua was kept at home, would he eat the magpie in two days?
Well, that's a problem.
But...... Doesn't seem like a bad thing?
"Bad Guy ~ Bad Guy"
At that moment, the magpie suddenly barked.
“……”
This guy actually felt it!
He felt that the study class or anything could be waived, and this magpie was probably about to start cultivating immortals.
He felt that Sanhua could not be his opponent.
Well, that's definitely the case.
……
The next day the team did not play, and Sun Hao took Wang Zhizhi and Yao Ming to Los Angeles together.
Yao Ming has already seen everything he should have seen before, and staying for an extra day is saying that he will see more, but he doesn't know what to watch.
Simply, Sun Hao took him to watch Yi Jianlian's game.
Sierra Leone Canyon School's opponent is a local high school, and the overall strength is not too strong.
Yi Jianlian played bravely in the game, scoring a big double-double of 24 points and 11 boards.
After the game, Sun Hao led Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi down to the venue together.
"Brother Hao!"
Yi Jianlian hadn't seen Sun Hao for a while, and he missed it very much.
"Roughly!"
He then guessed that Wang Zhizhi was also here.
Although it was the first time they met, Wang Zhizhi was too famous.
Speaking of which, downstairs in Sun Hao's house before, it was Wang Zhizhi who was discovered by Yi Jianlian first.
"Yao Ming."
Yi Jianlian then also saw Yao Ming.
He watched the Olympics with Sun Hao last summer and also had an impression of Yao Ming.
China's mobile Great Wall has met earlier than in history.
Professional athletes have a demanding diet, but it's normal to go out to eat and drink once in a while.
Success is not easy, but people are people after all.
The four of them went to Chinatown to have a Chinese meal, which was considered to be a treat.
Yi Jianlian's personality is indeed much better than before, and he can be considered open when chatting with Yao Ming.
And at the dinner table, Sun Hao announced the establishment of an English study class.
At present, Yi Jianlian is at the top of the list, followed by Wang Zhizhi's Chinese English, and Yao Ming's level is zero.
If you want to integrate into the NBA quickly, you have to grasp the language hurdle.
The establishment of study classes is also to supervise each other and make progress together.
After eating, Sun Hao and Yao Ming were blowing the wind on the balcony.
It's still a little cool in Los Angeles in April.
"I made a choice."
At this moment, Yao Ming suddenly spoke.
Sun Hao looked at him suspiciously.
"I decided to go to the NBA Draft this year."
Yao Ming then spoke.
Sun Hao was surprised.
Yao Ming's decision didn't come suddenly.
"Da Yao, you have to think clearly."
Sun Hao didn't give advice, but he gave a reminder.
"I figured it out, the alignment is really important, but the improvement of strength is more important."
Yao Ming's idea made Sun Hao very moved.
This kind of consciousness is not something that ordinary people can have.
But this is still not what Sun Hao feels the most, what touches him the most is Yao Ming's next words.
"If I run this year, then next year's World Championships, I will play in the NBA, and I don't believe that I will lose like that again, Sydney, I am very unwilling." Diagram of the Avenue of the Heavens
