Chapter 248: Hammond's Three Questions (Gambit)
Basketball camp, and it's also a fan meeting camp, it has another name - the basketball dream!
Yes, making every teenager with a basketball dream realize the cruelty of reality is the ultimate meaning of this training camp, LeBron James did it last year, and Kobe Bryant did it last year!
Now it's Yi Jianlian's turn!
After teaching some simple training methods, the host picked a few teenagers who looked obviously very energetic to come up and have a friendly bullfight with Yi Jianlian.
……
"UAE, I'm your fan, I watch your game every time!"
"Okay, nice to meet you!"
Yi Jianlian smiled and looked at the first little guy who came up in front of him, looking about fifteen or sixteen years old, he looked pretty good, and he knew by looking at the equipment on his body that he was a frequent player.
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
Triple hit!
Yi Jianlian invited this guy to eat hot pot after meal, which made him dizzy.
"It's my turn next!"
Yi Jianlian leaned sideways to approach the teenager, just a little exertion, and then pushed the teenager up, and then directly turned around and rushed into the inside line with one hand to split the ball and score the ball.
"Come again!" That boy didn't admit defeat a bit!
Yi Jianlian was not polite, and continued to hit him with his back, knocking him into an unstable center of gravity before turning around for a layup.
Soon Yi Jianlian scored 3 goals, and according to the regulations, this little guy should go down.
"No, give me another chance! I believe that the harder you work, the luckier you get! ”
"Good!"
Yi Jianlian was not polite, and the third back hit completed the split.
"No, I don't believe it, I love basketball so much!"
The boy seemed to want to cry.
"It's okay, you're still young, if you want to become a professional player, you still have a chance!" Seeing that this little boy was so stubborn, Yi Jianlian was also a little unbearable, and leaned his waist close to him, wanting to give him some chicken soup to drink.
"Well, I believe that the harder you work, the luckier you get!"
"Oh, that's a good attitude! What's your name? Yi Jianlian became interested in this child and chatted with him.
"My surname is Cai, my name is CXK, you can call me Xiao Kun!"
"......" Yi Jianlian pulled the corners of his mouth, he looked at the little boy in front of him, his heart was quite uneasy, there were millions of alpacas galloping by, and finally he sighed, touched CXK's head and said, "That's it!" Kid, you better learn to top your crotch! I believe that as long as you learn that action well, you will definitely be able to have something to do with the NBA in the future! ”
"Really?" BA is his biggest dream!
"Well, trust me, you absolutely can!"
"Okay, I'll go back now and learn to top my crotch!"
"Come on, but you remember what I told you, and you must not tell anyone!"
"I see, I promise!"
Yi Jianlian got up, he was very close to CXK just now, and the communication was not loud, and others didn't hear it at all.
The other fans who were waiting outside the stadium just saw Yi Jianlian tilting his waist and talking to the kid for a long time, and they didn't know what they were talking about.
……
Yi Jianlian looked at the back of CXK leaving and shook his head silently: Hey~
"Next!" The host on the sidelines began to let the next fan in.
"Smack!" Yi Jianlian cap.
"Phew!" Yi Jianlian dunk!
The next process is almost the same, Yi Jianlian is still serious at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, but in about 7 minutes, the 8 lucky people selected by the host have been beaten down by Yi Jianlian, and they can clean up one in less than a minute on average.
After all the heads-up, Yi Jianlian only took a few breaths and returned to normal, and he didn't even sweat much.
"Wow!"
The fans who came to the scene could only sigh unconsciously.
It was also through Yi Jianlian's communication with these fans that these fans knew how big the gap between amateur basketball enthusiasts and professional basketball players, especially Yi Jianlian, a top NBA star.
It's basically a bottomless trench.
After the basketball camp, BJ's meeting was over, and after returning to the hotel for a night's rest, Yi Jianlian set off for the next city: CD.
It's still the same activity process and go through it again.
And then there's XA......
After the Xa fan meeting, Yi Jianlian's first trip to China for a week came to an end, and Nike representatives had a deep understanding of Yi Jianlian's influence in China during this week, with three cities and full venues, and about the news of NBA players' offseason trip to China, Yi Jianlian's popularity was obviously higher than that of Maddie and Allen Iverson.
"It's a nuclear bomb!"
Nike is obviously very satisfied with the public opinion impact caused by Yi Jianlian's Huaxia tour.
And they also began to consider whether Yi Jianlian's Huaxia trip next year could add a few more stops......
***
During Yi Jianlian's trip to Huaxia.
Hammond has another big move, and this time it's about Michael Reed.
On July 9, the Bucks reached a deal with the Warriors, the Bucks sent Michael Reed, and the Warriors sent Jamal Crawford plus a second-round pick, the latter signed a 7-year contract of 55.92 million yuan with the Knicks in 04, and the contract expired in 2012, judging from his average of 19.7 points and 4.4 assists per game, this contract is not bad for money.
But what Hammond values is not only the contract, but also the ability of Jamal Crawford to handle the ball, and he is one of the league's leading ball-handling singles. The deal was clearly meant to address the Bucks' lack of offensive points with the ball on the second team.
Hammond called Dan Fagan as soon as the deal was completed and asked him to tell Yi Jianlian about the result.
In any case, Michael Reid was sent away in this deal, even if the wood is already in the boat, and Yi Jianlian has already agreed, but what should be said has to be said again.
"Okay, now the problem of the second team's attack with the ball has been solved!"
Hammond pulled out his notebook and wrote about the Bucks' roster flaws, which he had summarized himself before the offseason action began.
Before the second team's attack with the ball, there was a problem that had been ticked behind, and it was obviously solved, and it was the lack of a stalwart in the fourth position.
Now he's ticked off behind the second team's ball-handling offense as well.
The arrival of Jamal Crawford has solved this problem!
"And one last question!" Hammond saw that there was still one problem left, and he was also subconsciously relieved, he was finally done!
"There's one less substitute in the third position!"
Belch...... Hammond frowned.
Mason's contract also expired this year, and the latter signed a three-year 10 million contract with the Kings, and Hammond couldn't compete and had to let it go, so there was naturally a vacancy for the No. 3 position.
It's just that none of the players in the league's No. 3 position are very cheap at the moment, and Hammond doesn't have any chips to get those guys for the time being.
Fortunately, they used a second-round pick to select a guy named Danny Green at this summer's draft, and he should be able to top it for a while at the beginning of the season, and then slowly look for it!
