Chapter 38: The Quarterfinals of the Olympic Games?

If Sun Zhuo remembers correctly, Vince Carter will be the All-Star ticket king this season, winning the All-Star ticket king when Kobe, Maddy, and Iverson were all at their peak, which shows how much everyone likes to watch his gorgeous performances, and it is precisely because he often performs gorgeous moves in the regular season that everyone is looking forward to his All-Star performances.

Sun Zhuo didn't expect that he was targeted again, and these two people were still a pair of cousins......

After watching Maddie score 60 points, Sun Zhuo once said that he wanted to take a small notebook to write down Maddie, and he just talked about it casually at the time, but after fighting Carter, he really prepared a notebook, and then recorded Vince Carter's cruelty and ruthlessness to himself.

On a plane from Toronto to Los Angeles.

Kobe Bryant saw what Sun Zhuo was writing with a pen, and asked curiously, "Sun, what are you writing?" Take it and I'll take a look. ”

Without waiting for Sun Zhuo to agree, Kobe, who was sitting next to him, took the "small book" in his hand, looked at it twice, laughed out loud and read: "On December 19, 2003, against Magic, Maddie cut off 60 points on my head inhumanely!" On December 22, 2003, against the Raptors, Vince Carter dunked 8 times in a single game, including a 360-degree turn and an empty windmill...... Haha, Sun, what are you doing with this? ”

Sun Zhuo snatched his "small notebook" back, and said with some unhappiness: "These guys see that I am a rookie and deliberately bully me, I want to clearly record their 'crimes' and wait for revenge!" ”

"Hahaha." When the Lakers heard this, they all laughed.

However, Kobe Bryant asked: "With your strength, you can respond to them on the spot, there is no need to wait for next year, I found that you have a bit of hidden ability in these two games, is it the coach's meaning?" ”

Kobe felt that Sun Zhuo's state in these two games was a little wrong, as if Sun Zhuo could play well when Kobe was not there, and when Kobe was there, Sun Zhuo did not dare or was unwilling to play, so Kobe Bryant shifted his eyes to the mysterious Phil Jackson.

Phil didn't want Kobe to think too much, and he didn't want him to have any misunderstanding about himself, so he also spoke, and changed the topic and asked, "Kobe, have you finished reading the book "Captain Croilly's Mandolin" I gave you?" How do you feel? ”

Kobe yawned, draped the blanket over his lap, and replied nonchalantly: "I'm not interested in that book, and you know that I've been in a very irritable mood lately, and I'm not in the mood to read." ”

"In fact, the more irritable you are, the more time you should spend reading a book, it will calm you down." Phil Jackson actually knew that Kobe Bryant had already thrown the book in the trash, and what he really wanted to ask was O'Neal, but in front of Kobe, it was impossible not to ignore Kobe.

Phil Jackson looked at O'Neill and asked, "Have you read the copy of Siddhartha I gave you?" ”

O'Neal became nervous, as if he had been pushed to the free throw line all of a sudden, O'Neal replied: "Of course, the book you gave me, of course I read carefully, this book is about a young man, he has power, money, and women, which is very similar to me, haha, but he gave up all this in pursuit of a sacred life, which is not quite like me." ”

Hearing O'Neill's feelings after reading it, Phil Jackson was obviously very dissatisfied, but if O'Neill began to seek spiritual enlightenment after reading this book, it would be surprising, at least he read it carefully, which would still be helpful.

Kobe Bryant has always been angry about Phil Jackson's "Song of Solomon" given to Sun Zhuo, so he didn't ask Sun Zhuo in front of Kobe how he felt after reading it, but just asked: "How are you feeling about the Christmas war against Yao Ming?" I heard that this game will also be broadcast on your TV station, and China has produced these two outstanding players, and you Chinese fans should feel comforted. ”

That's right, the next game is the Christmas War, the Lakers have participated in the Christmas War for several years in a row, especially in the last two years, which can be regarded as classics, 01 to play the 76ers, 02 to play the King, this year David Stern arranged the opponent for the Lakers is the Houston Rockets, of course he can't predict the prophet, knowing that Sun Zhuo will play, his topic is "Yao Shark War", the shrewd Stern always has the ability to turn a plate of cold rice over and over again to fry it into a delicious taste.

At the mention of Yao Ming, O'Neill said with disdain: "I know that Yao is your Chinese friend and a teammate of your national team, but unfortunately, he is about to be beaten by me." ”

Due to the outside world's pursuit and hype of the "Little Chinese Giant", the most dominant O'Neill is very unhappy with Yao Ming, at this time, the relationship between O'Neill and Yao Ming is not as good as in the later period, and the two will really fight fiercely when they meet.

In the past two days, Emma, who temporarily served as Sun Zhuo's new agent, is also negotiating with many sneaker manufacturers such as NIKE and ADIDAS, which is a very difficult task, Nike has LeBron James, Jordan has Anthony, Reebok has Iverson, Adi has Maddie, Converse has Wade, plus their uncertainty about Sun Zhuo's future, they dare not gamble as much as signing James, but on the other hand, Sun Zhuo did show the strength of a superstar.

In the end, Sun Zhuo reached a three-year $14 million contract with Adidas, which is a gamble and compromise for both parties, Adidas is afraid that Sun Zhuo will only have a short-term shine and will not be worth the price, and Sun Zhuo knows that he will soon become a superstar, and Adi will only benefit, but he currently needs money to invest in gold and stocks, so he doesn't want to wait any longer.

Since then, Emma has also officially become Sun Zhuo's agent.

After finally getting the sneaker contract, Sun Zhuo came to the stage of the Christmas war, which will be the first big scene he encountered after entering the NBA.

There was also a game on the same day against the Magic vs. Cavaliers, and the performance of the peak McElva Christmas game was unmatched, and James would have learned it well, and of course, James played not badly.

Before the game started, as soon as Yao Ming and Sun Zhuo met, they stepped forward to greet each other.

Yao Ming faced the big shark today, the psychological pressure is naturally very great, but when he saw Sun Zhuo, he felt very cordial, and his mood was a lot more relaxed, when he was in China, the relationship between the two was not bad, and Yao Ming has always taken good care of Sun Zhuo, and he is very happy to see Sun Zhuo playing now, especially the Chinese national team has a competitive player, and when China plays international competitions, there will be better results.

Yao Ming shook hands with Sun Zhuo and said, "The last time I saw you, you were nervous and asked me for help, I didn't know how to survive in the NBA, I didn't expect to see you again, you are already the best rookie in the NBA who can score 48 points in a single game!" Brother, I am proud of you, you are the pride of us Chinese! ”

"No, no, no, don't say that, you are the pride of the Chinese, I am actually, not so strong." In front of his own people, Sun Zhuo is still very modest......

Yao Ming smiled and said: "Don't be modest, even if you are the best player in China, I don't mind, next year's Olympics, even if I am my assistant, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that we must win and reach the quarterfinals!" ”

Sun Zhuo was no longer modest now, and said in an incredible tone: "The top eight? ”
