Sun Ce was taken aback, and after a closer look, this appearance was a little familiar......

Lin!

Sun Ce walked up, Jeremy Lin was dozing off, and when he saw Sun Ce coming back, he quickly stood up, almost didn't stand firm, Sun Ce hurriedly held on.

After stabilizing himself, Sun Ce asked strangely: "Hello, I remember you, you are Jeremy, right, what are you doing at my door?" ”

"Three grams of oil, I'm Jeremy Lin, I'm sorry, I came here in the morning with the team and wanted to ask you for something, but you weren't there, I was waiting for you here, and I accidentally fell asleep." Jeremy Lin speaks English with a standard Californian accent.

"......" Sun Ce looked at Jeremy Lin speechlessly for a while, and his scalp was numb before he opened the door.

"Come in and sit down for a while, have you had dinner?" I don't think so, so I asked my dietitian to deliver an extra dinner. ”

took Jeremy Lin to the living room and sat down, and Jeremy Lin did not refuse.

After sending a text message to the dietitian, Sun Ce thought of what Jeremy Lin had just said and asked, "What are you coming to me for?" Do you play away? We didn't play for the next two days! The next game is to play the Knicks. ”

"I'm not in the NBA yet, I'm playing for the Santa Cruz Warriors, a team under the Warriors in the Development League, and tomorrow we're playing the Memphis Highway and we're playing in the University of Memphis' arena." Jeremy Lin scratched his head as he spoke.

He hadn't eaten since the morning, and he was afraid that he would miss Sun Ce's time to go home, God knows if this kind of famous star would go home for the night at night, the more he waited, the more tired he became, the more tired he became, the more hungry he became, and then he squatted in front of Sun Ce's house and dozed off against the wall.

He doesn't have extra money to eat, he comes out to play away, the team provides meals in cheap hotels, his salary is only 13,000 US dollars a season, or an average weekly payment, usually in Santa Cruz is already stretched thin, and occasionally has to rely on his mother to help him with some money, and he will not easily spend even 10 cents when playing away.

"The road team, oh, I remember, Grevis and Darrell and Sam used to go there to play." The team's rookie point guard Graves Wazquis, two rookie contract players, Darrell Arthur and Sam Young, need to play there for a long time to stay fit or hone their abilities.

Thinking of this, Sun Ce remembered a news he had seen before, or he only saw it when he deliberately paid attention to it, Jeremy Lin was selected by the Warriors and did not give him a contract, but chose to agree to retain his signing rights.

The terms of the agreement are: Retaining the signing rights of Jeremy Lin, which can help Jeremy Lin find an opportunity to play in the development league, and as long as Lin is still playing with the Santa Cruz Warriors, the Warriors will have the right of first refusal to sign.

However, this agreement is not very rigid, and Jeremy Lin can choose to leave at any time, but he will also lose the opportunity to play for the Warriors Development League team.

It's not so easy to play in the development league, like the Memphis road team under the Grizzlies, most of the players in it are NCAA famous stars, and even the starting members of the NCAA championship team, who were not selected by the NBA, still retain the dream of entering the NBA, and are willing to spend their days in the development league with a low salary, waiting for opportunities, in case the home team has a wide range of injuries, like the Warriors last season, there were only 6 official players left to play, they have a chance.

It's just that this season, the Warriors' health is so good that Jeremy Lin waited for half a year and didn't wait for the opportunity.

After a few casual greetings, Sun Ce asked, "Did you come to me on purpose for something?" ”

What's the matter?

When Jeremy Lin heard Sun Ce's words, he really didn't know what he was doing here.

The same players who came out of the Warriors also didn't give up long after being drafted...... Without the old Nelson, the Warriors chose a Jeremy Lin whose style was similar to Sun Ce, who had just been selected at the time, and he didn't know how to use it at all, the flaws were too obvious, and it was impossible to give playing time to play blindly, Sun Ce was lucky, Ellis happened to be injured, and the old Nelson dared to play again, so Sun Ce had a chance to come out.

He Lin didn't have a chance at all, and he was sent to the Development League after the preseason.

This time he came to Sun Ce, purely out of obsession, wanting to see what was the difference between Sun Ce and him.

He knew that there must be a world of difference, everyone in the NBA has a chance to win the MVP, but Jeremy Lin just wanted to meet Sun Ce.

Now seeing Sun Ce, Jeremy Lin really feels how big the difference between the two is.

This size alone is even more exaggerated than what you watch on TV!

Jeremy Lin didn't know how to answer for a while.

Sun Ce felt that the players of the same class and this year's rookie seemed to be afraid of him, and he felt that he was not a bad person! At most, who offended him, will he fight with that person in the next game, and often hang and pound the opposite side?

As for it?

In addition to this, there may be a huge disparity in the basketball world.

Sun Ce and Yao Ming really relied on their strength to gain a foothold in the NBA, and others respected them because of their performance on the court, while Jeremy Lin was discriminated against in the development league.

There are few teams like the Grizzlies that are so inclusive of overseas players, and in addition to the Grizzlies, there are also a few teams such as the Raptors, Spurs, and Hawks who are more famous for their inclusiveness.

Sun Ce looked at Jeremy Lin, thought about it, probably guessed the purpose of Jeremy Lin's coming, and asked, "You want me to give you some advice, right?" I remember you saying that you had something to ask. ”

When Jeremy Lin heard Sun Ce's words, he quickly nodded and responded: "I don't know what I should do, I have no direction at all, I played hard in the Santa Cruz Warriors, better than everyone, but I never had a chance to enter the NBA, but I don't know if I should leave, and I don't know where to go......"

Unlike the original time and space when Jeremy Lin went to find a summer league opportunity after he was defeated, Mark Jackson and D'Antoni both had an impression of him and signed him to play in their own team's development league team, this time and space Warriors selected him, as a second-round pick, the Warriors have the right to sign, and other teams will naturally not pay attention to a player who is not very concerned in the first place, there are more NCAA players, and the MOP in the semifinals may not be able to enter the first round.

Listening to Jeremy Lin talk about what happened to him, Sun Ce was noncommittal, and it was none of his business.

And in Sun Ce's heart, Jeremy Lin is a stranger, he is an authentic American in terms of accent, personality, and culture, and Jeremy Lin's experience really has nothing to do with him.

invited Jeremy Lin in to sit down, just because in his memory, Jeremy Lin eventually became an NBA player, and finally went to play in the imperial capital of China, he will play in the NBA for a long time in the future, and he will play against each other from time to time, so he invited the other party in out of politeness.

But after listening to what Jeremy Lin said, Sun Ce felt as if he delayed Jeremy Lin, because of his reasons, the Warriors wanted to gamble on luck to choose him, but they didn't give him a formal contract......

Sun Ce thought for a while and said, "If you want to change, I think you can go to New York for a trial, I have watched you since I was a child...... Ahh ”

D'Antoni ...... Nelson...... The assistant coach of the Warriors said that I am very similar to you in the summer league......" Jeremy Lin muttered to himself for a while, then suddenly stood up and said, "Thank you, Lord, I'll cancel the contract when I go back, I'm going to the Big Apple!" ”

Jeremy Lin suddenly stood up and jumped Sun Ce, and what he said scared Sun Ce again!

"Hey, hey, hey? I'll just say that, are you so decisive? Why don't you think about it? ”
