Chapter 617: Ranking and War of Words (Big Chapter Sent ~)
"Damn!" Tang Qian was sweating in the training hall, but compared with last summer, his progress was obviously slow. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In other words, the ability has improved, so it is extremely difficult to try to be the top of the top.
But Tang Qian had no reason to give up, because he knew where the limit of his ability was, far from now.
During this period of time, there have been a lot of turbulent things in China, such as the grapevine that Tang Qian broke up the national team, Tang Qian appeared at the big shark training base, Tang Qian's waiting hall and the big star Taylor. Swift talked very happily and so on. These news are spread with nose and eye, the process is meticulous, and it does not look like "fake news" at all. When this kind of thing happens, the basketball management and the basketball association have spoken, and there is no such thing! The national team is all elite members, how can it be blown up by one person? The people who spread this rumor have bad intentions!
Yao Ming, the boss of the big shark, also said: "I don't know about this matter, as for Tang Qian? Maybe he's been here, maybe he's not, I'm not an athlete anymore, and I can't stay at the training base every day, right? With a slightly witty remark, Yao Ming avoided the important and took the matter lightly.
But on the national team, it was surprisingly quiet, and no one spoke up, as if they were collectively deaf and blind.
As for Taylor's news, few people in China believe it, because Taylor has never come to China for a concert, how can he accompany a basketball player in the departure hall of Modu Airport to "talk very happily"? Coupled with the large-scale ban on Tang Qian in China, in addition to their own "released materials", it is almost difficult for ordinary people to search for Tang Qian's foreign news. So on the whole, few people believe that the queen of European and American country music will stay alone with Tang Qian in the Magic City Waiting Hall.
In the center of the basketball tube, the letter tube was furious and said, "What's going on? What's going on? Did he return home? And quietly blew up half of our national team??? Is this true??? Yes!!! Chen Xin, who lowered his head below, said resignedly: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's really a trust." According to the internal news of the big shark, Tang Qian did go to the training base, otherwise with the personality of these 'national players', he would definitely not be so quiet. ”
"Call Yao Ming! Ask him what he wants to do! Are you going to do it with us??? The voice of the letter management was still angry. Report, report to the letter management, I have contacted Yao Ming's side, but people don't admit this matter at all, and we keep playing Tai Chi, lack of photos and video materials, there is no way to make substantive accusations against him......" As soon as Chen Xincai's voice fell, the letter manager slapped the table and said: "Yao Ming!" This Yao Ming! Do you really think that you are the banner of domestic basketball, so you can do whatever you want? You have to know that no matter how 'flag' he is, he is just playing basketball, and he is not qualified to fight us! If I get his pigtails next time, I won't let him go easily! ”
"Hmph, the domestic football world, not the NBA, everything here has the final say!"
……
"Don't worry! Don't worry! Scald! You've been practicing too much in the past two days, and it's only counterproductive! Rodman stopped the training and stood beside Tang Qian and admonished. Improving rebounding ability is a very long process, for example, a genius such as Rodman, it took more than 2 seasons to complete the transformation, Tang Qian's current progress is not much slower than him, and further back, it depends on how strong the latter's rebounding talent is.
If it is strong enough, then maybe it can soar in the next year or two, if it is not enough, then it is a pity that it is useless to work hard for a lifetime. Sometimes, it's so cruel that hard work determines the lower limit, but the upper limit of your talent is by no means something that can be changed by a simple "effort".
Otherwise the NBA after the 80s, as for only Dennis. Is Rodman a super rebounder?
"I just think there's something missing, and a little more effort should be fine!" Tang Qian did not stop this time, but kept increasing the amount of training, the state of "water dogs" every day, Rodman secretly expressed his admiration.
But it's just admiration, after all, if you want to break through again in a short period of time and enter the field of 18+ rebounds, Rodman doesn't believe that the oriental center in front of him can do it. From his own point of view, 17+ rebounds is the limit of Tang Qian's expectations, and his original estimate is only 14+ rebounds...... Could it be that this yellow man still has to surpass his rebounding level? It's almost impossible, it's possible, it's as small as an ant's egg. As the strongest rebounding monster in the late 80s, Rodman has seen too many so-called geniuses, let alone surpassing himself, and not even one that can be compared.
So he is not optimistic about Tang Qian, not without reason.
On the one hand, he hopes that Tang Qian can break through and reach the peak that he has not touched, and on the other hand, he feels that Tang Qian cannot surpass him in rebounding talent. This kind of ambivalence is the true portrayal of the "flower big worm".
During this period, the news that Kobe Bryant finally began to fully resume basketball training was released, and for a while, the outside world continued to speculate.
ESPN felt that Kobe Bryant was not good, although Dominic was not good in NBA history. Wilkins's "miracle" was in front of him, but how old was Wilkins at that time? He was only 31 years old. Bryant. Bryant turned 35 a month ago, and in the field of competitive sports, every year is actually a weakening of various body functions. ESPN's experts have said that if Kobe Bryant is 4~5 years younger, then they are also full of confidence and think that they can return to the king and resurrect with full blood. But at the age of 35, there is no way, people can't fight against time and God.
T.N.T and local Los Angeles media believe that the Los Angeles No. 24 can do a miracle and fully recover next season to lead the Lakers to compete for the NBA championship in the 2013-2014 season. People who hold this view generally believe that even if Kobe Bryant can only recover to 80%~90%, there is still a chance to compete for the O'Brien Cup. Because there are still Howard, Nash, Gasol and others in the team, as long as the run-in is good, it is impossible to have the "bleak situation" of last season.
But because ESPN and other media have a greater influence, the people who are optimistic about Kobe's recovery still account for the majority and dominate.
At this time, the negotiations between Tang Qian and the Lakers also reached an impasse, due to the delay in the management of Los Angeles, which made the fans who supported Tang Qian also feel angry, and said: Renew the contract in China immediately! We want to compete for the championship next season and we can't live without him on the bench!
It's a pity that there is another kind of "rumor": Tang Qian's age is not clear, and he is really not worth the annual salary of tens of millions, if he is willing to stay for 5 million, then he can still accept it happily. Tang Qian scoffed at this obviously "rhythmic" view, and responded at the same time: I can stay with the Lakers, but 5 million a year? I guess I'm not that cheap yet! It's not about money, it's about distrust, disrespect for my strength and status.
However, for the "age gate" and "false testimony gate", Tang Qian kept silent and chose to remain silent.
Because he's already given Jenny. Bas was clear, and if he wanted to clarify, he didn't think it was necessary. Because the media's job is to "stir up trouble" and "make news", he doesn't want to be pushed to the "cusp" of that kind of "storm" again, for people's entertainment, and gossip.
You've done what you have done, and the rest is up to Jenny. Buzz what she thought.
At the end of September, ESPN announced the player rankings for the 2013~2014 season, and the first place was still LeBron. James, in fact, he has been in the first place on the list since 2011~2012. This year marks the third consecutive year. And compared to last year, he finally completed a perfect score of 10 points from 9.99 points to win the championship, but he has just completed 2 consecutive championships, and it is not surprising that he is in this position. Second place went to Kevin. Durant, who, like last year, has no fluctuations and is still the "second in the millennium" feeling. Third place went to Chris. Paul, who replaced last year's third place finisher, Dwight. Howard's location. Fourth place is a new face, he is the solo James, well, Harden, he jumped through the rankings in one fell swoop, and made it to the top five for the first time. And the fifth? For Durant's teammate Russell. Westbrook, who occupied last year Derek. Rose's turf, which is also the first time that Willow has reached the top five of the Players Season Rankings. The sixth to tenth were Stephen. Curry, Dwight. Howard, Carey. Owen, Derek. Ross, Mark. Gasol. As for the 24th in Los Angeles...... He was ranked 25th by ESPN this season.
This is also the first time that Kobe Bryant has fallen out of the top 10 since the millennium, and it is outside the top 20 as soon as it falls.
Above him were Hibbert, Noah, Bosh, Wall, and so on...... This made the No. 24 of the Lakers "lose face" all of a sudden. After all, he was the sixth player on this list last year, and now he has plummeted 19 places, and no one is happy. In particular, ESPN's famous Cohei Henry. Abbott posted that Kobe Bryant is no longer good, his Achilles tendon rupture, and he can still rank 25th, which is a sign of respect for him. If you really want to let him be ranked in full power, it is estimated that he will not even be able to enter the 30th place.
This can be regarded as annoying Kobe Bryant, who is desperately recovering, because "Black Mamba" was still a winner of a period last season, with an average of 27+5+6+1 data per game, and the shooting rate is a career high. suddenly degraded him to "worthless", with Kobe's temper, it is impossible to ignore it. So the latter was interviewed publicly: ESPN people are just some stupid. Force!
It's a pretty straightforward way to do it! But it fits Kobe's character very well!
Think I'm only ranked 25th in the world? The 24th in front of me is estimated to have to undergo a urine test!
Subsequently, Kobe. Bryant's private Twitter changed his profile picture to the word 1225, although there is no explanation, but everyone knows what it is.
Some media people smelled the "excitement" and began to write in a big way:
Based on Kobe's performance last season, I think this list is bullshit! Because Ross is still in the top 10, isn't he?
For a first-team winner in last season's top 10 efficiency, even taking into account injuries and declines, that should be around 15. I don't think Parker, Love, Anthony and others will surpass Kobe Bryant in court ability.
However, ESPN responded to these remarks, led by data expert Amin . Al Hassan wrote: "Based on Kobe's age and his injuries, I really think 25 is already generous! If these respectful factors are not taken into account, I agree with Henry. Abbott's point of view, Kobe Bryant should be ranked outside the top 30 this season!
This undoubtedly caused the "Black Mamba" to be furious, and said: I will let you know what it means to be "generous"! As a player ranked 25th in the league, I will give it my all in the new season!
Kobe Bryant's prestige and influence also made a large group of people in the league follow the speech.
T.N.T reporter Halt said: Kobe Bryant is ranked 25th? Are you kidding me? Well? I can't wait to see how Kobe performs! You know, what Black Mamba does best is fight back!
Orange County Chronicle reporter Hunes said: Can't wait to see the performances of the top 24 players of the new season! Hopefully they can all surpass the 25th!
Nuggets player Quincy. Miller was even more blunt: Kobe? He? 25 bits? ESPN shouldn't know how to spell the word "respect"!
Wow~25? ESPN is really naked! -- This is Wizards columnist Mike Brown. Prada wrote on Twitter.
Lakers fans have said: Thank you ESPN for the ranking! Because it will make the 24th full of energy, and the whole season will be fought for!
Lakers players also said: Maybe ESPN's ranking is the meaning of Kobe Bryant.
However, if you are careful enough, you will find that the Lakers' No. 29 did not say a word, and he has been silent in this big storm and big mouth fight. This is completely different from the previous image.
Why didn't Tang Qian get involved in this matter? Because he knew very well in his heart that Kobe. Bryant, the proud No. 24, has only a few games at most this season, and he will be scrapped again, and this time, it is the straw that breaks the camel's back, making Kobe's magic disappear forever. Injury after injury, for a 35-year-old veteran, that kind of ability blow is self-evident. So Tang Qian chose to be silent and did not speak publicly as before.
He originally thought that "Alien Space" would give him an ability card or an off-field mission to get this "damn Achilles tendon". But it seems that "Different Space" has no intention of doing this, and now that the new season is about to begin, is it not destined that the Lakers will fall quickly? This looks good for himself, but don't think about the championship and good results, Tang Qian is still self-aware.
If Howard leaves and Nash is injured and suspended, he and Gasol really don't have much chance of winning. At most, entering the playoffs, and fighting to the second round is the limit. This is still because of the calculation of his demigod descent and various ability cards. If not, hehe, whether or not you can get in the playoffs is a big question. In the 2013-2014 season, the Lakers had only 27 wins, a winning rate of less than 33%, and they lost 55 games throughout the season, ranking second to last in the West.
Can a team with this kind of record make the playoffs? That's already a miracle, isn't it?
But Tang Qian's heart is still for that Larry. The O'Brien Cup, with a huge desire for it.
After all, he is the one who "won" the NBA championship trophy, so it would be an absolute lie to say that he didn't want the ring! But with this lineup, it is very difficult for Tang Qian to make a name for himself, maybe the data can be brushed well, but the record is not easy to say.
However, now he can't do any "effort", so he can only wait patiently.
At the same time, because the Lakers have not made an offer for a long time, many teams have extended an olive branch to Tang Qian. Because even if the age is tampered with, it is still a real Lianzhuang block king and a new rebounding king, and this alone is coveted by many teams. But it seems to be negatively affected by the "age gate" and "fake certificate gate", and the highest price is only about 8 million a year, and there is no one for 9 million a year, let alone a contract of 10 million.
Zhou Zhiru has been busy with this matter, but the Lakers' slow response has also made her start to "appropriately" contact other teams to put pressure on the Los Angeles Lakers. At this moment, someone finally reported a big contract, it was the Bulls from Chicago, the Bulls offered 3 years and 31 million to sign Tang Qian, but the third year is a team option, and the team will make the decision on whether to continue to implement the contract.
At this moment, Zhou Zhiru was confident, and she began to talk to the media constantly, in order to pressure the Lakers management. Kupchak was so focused on "Warcraft" Howard that he didn't have time to pay attention to Zhou Zhiru at all. In this way, the Bulls seem to have won the game, because even if it is the parent team, if you don't match the contracts offered by other teams, then Tang Qian will "change hands" and leave Los Angeles.
I heard that the Bulls made this decision because of their international scouting director, Ivanka Brown. Kandu's vigorous push and what they mean is to sign Don Deep, and last season's first-guard Joaquin. Noah formed an inner line "iron bucket array". The purpose of this operation is to strengthen the team's interior line and make Derek. Rose can make a more relaxed shot after his comeback.
However, Tang Qian is unlikely to accept this contract, after all, he knows very well that the Bulls will accompany the prince to study for the next few years, and Ross will continue to be reimbursed and cannot be supported. In this case, if you join by yourself, first of all, the status of the team must be re-consolidated, and then if you want to fully exert it, you will also be restrained, which means that you want to take over, and it will take several years.
I'm not afraid to spend time, I'm afraid of spending time, and I can't touch the floor of the finals, so it's embarrassing.
Moreover, Gasol joined the Bulls in the later period, and the team's struggle for power, boss fighting, internal friction and civil strife will continue until after 2016, Tang Qian feels that he has gone, which is a pure waste of time. Of course, the main thing is that he was not a Bulls fan in his previous life and did not have a natural affection for the Bulls, so he would prefer to stay with the Lakers and stay in Los Angeles if he could.
It's not for how much money, it's just for the dream reality of myself as an ordinary person in my previous life.
Just when the Bulls released the news and had already contacted Tang Qian's agent, someone from the Lakers finally spoke up, saying: China is an important cornerstone of our Lakers' future! We won't give up easily! He is definitely worth a 10 million annual salary!
The person who spoke was not Lakers management, nor was Mickey. Kupchak, but Jenny. Bass.
Jenny. After Buss finished speaking, he added the next day: No matter what price the Bulls offer, I think the Lakers should match! Otherwise, the decision-makers will be fully responsible!
When I saw this, Mickey. Kupchak's lungs exploded, and he couldn't help but jump out and say: Please also ask some people in the Bass family not to interfere with their work! I am the general manager of the team hired by Mr. Bass! Our goal now is Dwight. Howard, no one else.
Tang Qian hasn't said anything yet, Jenny. Buss continued to speak through local media: I just don't want to see the Lakers let go of a hopeful! It's like when the Orlando Magic gave up "Big Shark" O'Neal for the sake of "pennies"! This Eastern center, the Lakers should stay! And the new season is about to start, and the Lakers management has not introduced new people for a long time, which is definitely very unfavorable for the reinforcement plan in the future!
Kupchak coldly retorted: I am doing what I am doing, I should be doing what I will do, and I don't need an "outsider" to remind me! Some people should take care of their role in international affairs first.
Mickey. Kupchak is clearly saying that your hand is stretched too long, and now is not the time for you to take care of the Lakers! Stay with me!
This "team civil strife" has made many fans talk more after dinner, and many people are even speculating that in the end, Jenny. Bass and Mitch. Kupchak, who will win?
After Tang Qian went home from practice, Zhou Zhiru said to him on the phone: "Tang Qian, you can't delay any longer, I know you like the Lakers and Los Angeles, but you are also a professional player." I think going to the Chicago Bulls is a good direction, they will come back from injury this year, and then you and I think ......" Before she finished speaking, the former said: "No, Rose I think it's just a glass man, a medicine jar, and if I go, it won't fundamentally change Chicago's strength." Because they were one of the strongest defensive teams in the league, what they lacked was offensive points and offensive firepower, and I wasn't very useful. Then Bulls head coach Tom Brown. Thibodeau's coaching style is not something I like. ”
"Glass Man?" Zhou Zhiru pointed out mercilessly: "How old is Ross? Only in his twenties, how do you know he can't recover? Is the future a glass man? Kobe Bryant is now 35 years old! Do you think he has a better chance of recovering or is Rose more likely to recover? Again, you're a professional footballer, you can't be so headstrong! "Anyway, it's not the last one, I'm not inclined to go to the Bulls, you're an agent, yes, but my opinion, you have to consider it." After speaking, Tang Qian hung up the phone, and then muttered to the wall: "Now look at the wheel of history, whether it will continue to move forward." ”
"Dwight. Howard, when are you leaving? ”
PS: I saw someone ask Xiao Zi why she didn't change it yesterday, didn't Xiao Zi ask for leave yesterday? I wrote it later in the previous chapter~
This is a big chapter.,I hope to apologize~ Xiaozi is not a full-time author.,So you can't ignore it at work~~~ I hope you forgive me~~~Woo woo~~~
