Chapter 32: Justice is never absent
slapped the draft expert in the face, and made a quick shot in March, which made Ding Mo'an completely famous in the United States on the other side of the ocean. Along with Ross, UCLA's Westbrook, Love, Beasley, and O.J. Mayo. This made many bad teams put their minds on Ding Mo'an.
And the Grizzly Bears, who were the first scouts to discover Ding Mo'an's precious jade, are now in a hurry. Originally, the Grizzlies had the idea of playing Rose, but Rose was both a Chicago native and a good player. This season, the Bulls are crazy again, and they are on the rebuilding agenda. There is a high probability that they will outperform the Grizzlies in the draft pick, so the chances of the Grizzlies wanting to get Rose are very low.
At this time, Ding Moan came out of nowhere to show his natural strength that was not weaker than Rose, allowing the Grizzlies to find the number one option. It's just that Ding Mo'an suddenly became famous, and the Grizzlies once again faced a lot of belly teams that had to compete with wolves.
Although the Grizzlies are determined to swing, the only star on the team, Paul. Gasol objected. He is 28 years old this year and is about to enter the peak of his career, so it is natural that he will not want to stay with the Grizzlies and accompany them into a long rebuild.
How many years does a player have in his prime? No one wants to waste time in rebuilding. So Paul was left behind. Gasol's plan to enter the rebuilding is broken. Grizzlies management could never have forced Paul. Gasol stayed, plus Paul. Gasol's contract expires this season. Then the only way is to trade him out for some benefits.
Grizzlies management is starting to figure out how to trade Paul. Gasol, speed up the pace of reconstruction. In the training hall of the Tigers at the University of Memphis, two strange Chinese coaches came.
"Coach Hu and Coach Zheng have returned from China. They will continue to work with the Tigers! "Head coach Calipari introduced the two middle-aged coaches to all the Tigers.
But Ding Mo'an, who was standing in the queue, was taken aback. How did Coach Hu Weidong and Coach Zheng Wu come to the Tigers?
Because Ding Mo'an and Rose joined the Tigers relatively late, Hu Weidong and Zheng Wu had already returned to China. Uncle Zhang didn't drink Ding Mo'an's mention, so Ding Mo'an didn't see the two coaches.
But Hu Weidong and Zheng Wu are very interested in this Ding Mo'an, who has never met but is famous. When they arrived, they had already learned from the accompanying basketball association staff that the Tigers had a rapid momentum this season, and the new freshmen and the No. 1 high school in the United States were Derrick. Rose formed a backcourt double gun, and bloodied opponents one after another.
The freshman leads the scoring charts with an average of 25.1 points per game and has practiced shooting miracles for three months. The most coincidental thing is that this freshman is still a Chinese.
This makes the two coaches who are highly respected in the domestic basketball world even more curious. Without Kalipari's introduction, Ding Mo'an stepped forward, shook hands with the two coaches and said, "Coach Hu and Coach Zheng are good!" My name is Ding Mo'an! ”
The two coaches also greeted Ding Mo'an very kindly. For Ding Mo'an, a Chinese player who has achieved such great success in the NCAA, the two coaches only feel a sense of comfort.
The more they understand the gap between Chinese and American basketball, the more disappointed the two coaches are with the young people in the country. Now except for Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, and Sun Yue, who has not yet been able to play in the NBA, who else is there in Chinese basketball?
When the two coaches saw Ding Mo'an, they felt that there was still hope for Chinese basketball. Isn't there another young player who is playing in the NCAA, the birthplace of basketball, in the United States across the ocean?
However, Hu Weidong still asked one more question: "Xiaoding, are you in the system?" Zheng Wu on the side also looked at Ding Mo'an curiously, as if he had heard this name before coming to the United States.
"Three months ago it was...... Now I'm in the U.S. to play in the NCAA. Ding Mo'an showed a helpless look on his face.
Zheng Wu seemed to remember where he had heard the name Ding Mo'an, and he hurriedly said to Hu Weidong on the side: "Old Hu, didn't your Su Provincial Youth Team terminate the contract with a player named Ding Mo'an a few months ago?" ”
Hearing Zheng Wu say this, Hu Weidong seemed to recall it, and projected an inquiring gaze at Ding Mo'an. Ding Mo'an smiled bitterly and nodded in acknowledgement.
"Little Ding...... Is it, as the newspaper writes, that you are jealous of your teammates and hit them. When Hu Weidong said this, he didn't believe it. He also knows that the three little guys of the Three Kings are good players in China, and if they are put in the NCAA, they will play in a second-tier league at most.
And the Ding Mo'an in front of him, a player who has played well in the NCAA Division I League, and a genius who is as famous as the talented players in American basketball, it is impossible for him to do that.
Seeing that the two instructors wanted to know what was going on, Ding Mo'an told the two instructors all the way from the beginning to the end and the whole experience of being forced to come to the United States to play.
The two instructors listened and listened, and their eyes moistened. Seeing Ding Mo'an talking casually, as if he was not talking about his appearance, Hu Weidong and Zheng Wu were even more distressed in their hearts.
They knew that Ding Mo'an was heartbroken by his own people and was completely disappointed in the domestic basketball world, so he would be like this. saw such a good talented player, but was suppressed by three black-eyed villains, and finally was forced to have no ball to play, and almost gave up his dream.
"Fortunately, I didn't give up, and with the help of my good buddy Zhang Yang and Uncle Zhang, who is the physical trainer of the Tiger team, I joined the Tiger team. Then what happened next should be known to both directors. ”
Ding Mo'an breathed a long sigh of relief, recalling the gloomy time three months ago, Ding Mo'an didn't know whether to thank the three kings or hate them. Thank them for targeting themselves and letting him know Uncle Zhang's family and Ross? Or do you hate them for ruining yourself at home and your parents being pointed at for it?
Director Hu Weidong wanted to hold back his tears, but tears still slowly flowed from his eyes, and at the same time, there was a burning anger in his heart. Because Hu Weidong is the greatest player in the history of the Soviet provincial team, and he is also the head coach of the Soviet provincial team!
"It seems that the atmosphere of the Soviet provincial team must be cured!" Hu Weidong almost gritted his teeth and said this. He patted Ding Mo'an on the shoulder and said firmly: "Xiao Ding, I apologize to you on behalf of the Jiangsu Provincial Team and the Chinese basketball world!" Lao Zheng and I will definitely return your innocence! Our Chinese geniuses must not be harmed by their own people and become homeless! ”
In an instant, Ding Mo'an's heart was cooled and warmed by the tears shed by Director Hu and his sincere apology. The previous disappointment and indifference to the Soviet team and the Chinese basketball world collapsed.
Justice may be late, but it will never be absent!
