Jeremy Lin's father, Lin Jiming, was born in Taiwan, and his mother, Wu Xinxin, is from Zhejiang Province, both of whom are engineers, so Lin's family conditions are not very poor, at least much happier than the childhood of many black basketball players.

Jeremy Lin is the second oldest in the family, and he also has two brothers.

The family was very enthusiastic about Wang Xiao's arrival.

They all heard Jeremy Lin say that Wang Xiao took care of him in the school team.

Jeremy Lin has been doing well in the league recently, and even many news outlets have reported on Lin's outstanding performance.

This made the whole family feel very incredible.

Jeremy Lin loves basketball and dreams of joining the NBA, which is something the whole family knows.

But whether it is his parents, his brother, or Jeremy Lin, they all know in their hearts that this possibility is too low.

For so many years, Yao Ming is the only Asian who has been successful in the NBA.

Yi Jianlian, who was selected by the Bucks with a high pick this year, also had high hopes, but since the start of the new season three months ago, Yi Jianlian's performance has been somewhat unsatisfactory.

In the same period, Chinese guard Sun Yue was a point guard like Jeremy Lin, but for three months, Sun Yue, who joined the Lakers, failed to play even a game.

This also made them even more skeptical about whether Jeremy Lin could successfully join the NBA.

Inviting Wang Xiao as a guest, on the one hand, is to thank Wang Xiao for taking care of Jeremy Lin, and on the other hand, he also has the idea of wanting to find Wang Xiao to solve his doubts.

They didn't know who Wang Xiao was at first, but in the age of the Internet, it was too simple to find a person's information.

So they learned that Wang Xiao had been an assistant coach in the NBA for five years, and successfully got the position of head coach of the Trail Blazers, becoming the first Chinese NBA head coach in history.

They also knew that following Wang Xiao would go against the will of the boss and insist on choosing Kevin. Durant, who gave up the talented center Oden who was favored by everyone, was subsequently fired directly by the angry team owner.

At that time, everyone was laughing at Wang Xiao, thinking that he was a person with abnormal brains and mental problems, but what was the result?

Oden was reimbursed for the season without even playing a game, and Durant, who was not favored by everyone, showed good ability in the Trail Blazers.

He averaged 17.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game, shooting 45% from the field.

As a rookie, this level is almost enough to be booked as the best rookie of the season.

What's even more surprising is that Durant's stats are at Brandon. Roy's side got it!

Everyone thought Durant would be suppressed because he didn't have the ball next to Roy, but they turned out wrong.

Durant was only a little uncomfortable in the first few games, but quickly found a way to fit Roy, and quickly integrated into the system with a catch-and-shoot style.

Far from bogging the Trail Blazers in the chaos of uneven ball possession, his addition was enhanced by the threat of long-range shooting.

As a result, the Trail Blazers led the record list at the start of the season, and even by Christmas in December, the Trail Blazers were still in fourth place in the competitive West.

This is a result that Trail Blazers fans who have not made it to the next tournament for many years could not have imagined!

In comparison, the supersonic speed at the bottom of the fighter alliance because of Oden's injury looks so miserable, so miserable that many people can't help but think about what Wang Xiao said at the beginning.

"Auden is trash? Durant NB? ”

Of course, the results of a season cannot be used as a reference standard, but Durant has used his performance to show everyone that he is indeed in the NBA.

To be reasonable, Wang Xiao was a little surprised when he saw that Durant could average 17.6 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists per game while having a 45% shooting rate.

When he chose Durant, Wang Xiao didn't think much about it, he just thought it was a dream, and Durant was indeed the strongest player in this class, so he chose it.

In hindsight, from a coach's point of view, Durant wasn't actually a good fit for the Trail Blazers.

The Trail Blazers have enough potential youngsters, and Roy and Aldridge are both players with an outside style that is biased towards the outside, and for the team, what they need is a qualified interior player, not an outside shooter.

Even if he joins the Trail Blazers as the champion, the ball will still be in the heart of the team, Brandon. In Roy's hands, not Durant.

In Durant's first year with the SuperSonics, although he averaged 20 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game, he averaged 17 shots per game among all rookies.

But with the Trailblazers, he didn't have that privilege.

In fact, in the Trail Blazers, Durant only averages third most shots per game, Roy averages 15.8 shots per game and can score 18 points, Aldridge averages 15.3 attempts per game and can score 17.8 points, while Durant only averages 14 shots per game and does not lose to the other two in scoring.

Wang Xiao estimated that after he was selected as the champion, Durant has been controversial, and all kinds of people have jumped out to criticize him for not being as good as Oden, which also made Durant accumulate a lot of dissatisfaction, which he transformed into a small universe and exploded, so he showed a better self than another time and space.

(Durant's shooting percentage in his first season was not high, and his long-range shooting ability was not very strong, and the main means of scoring was to score by breaking through the foul, but in the second season, his three-point shooting rate soared from 28% to 42%, and the shooting rate also rose to 47%. This book advances Durant's talent a little earlier, I don't think it's an exaggeration, after all, when Durant was in the Thunder, except for the first season, he was basically not the one who had the most possession, and it was not a joke to win three consecutive scoring titles next to Westbrook and Harden in the two ball-handling positions, and book fans and friends don't need to bar Durant to have such a great question, there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people, and in my eyes Durant is indeed a player who can adapt to many systems, When he was with the Thunder, he could coexist with Westbrook and Harden, and when he was with the Warriors, he could perfectly integrate into the Warriors' already mature system, but his "hardest decision" was a little difficult to accept. ）
