Li Qun turned on the GPS car locator, and sent Chamberlain to the Byron Garden Hotel all the way, and the two chatted happily on the way.

When he arrived at the hotel, Chamberlain reluctantly got out of the car and politely invited: "Li Qun, do you want to go to my place for a cup of coffee?" ”

Hearing Chamberlain's invitation, Li Qun's eyebrows frowned slightly, and politely declined: "I'm sorry, I have to have a meeting when I go back, oh, you know, we've just gotten off work now, and we have to go back to sort out the news to be reported tomorrow, so it may not be convenient for time." ”

Chamberlain smiled and nodded, knowing that his invitation was a bit abrupt, these players in the NBA have rich pockets and excessive hormone secretion, so they often make unclear news with women, and it is estimated that Li Qun is also worried about what will happen if she enters Chamberlain's room.

exchanged mobile phone numbers, the two separated, Chamberlain whistled and was full of pride, tonight was really wonderful, he became famous, met a beautiful woman, and earned 20,000 US dollars, especially the latter, he has not yet received the salary paid to him by the team, 20,000 US dollars is his entire net worth, he can call home to help pay off his debts.

With a win, the Warriors returned to Golden State the next day, and the Jacksons played in the nightclub until four o'clock, then got on the bus and went to sleep. Chamberlain slept so well last night, how could he let them sleep so peacefully? So they tossed these people one by one.

Jackson and the others were full of helplessness, they couldn't beat Chamberlain in a fight, and the latter still talked about the fact that they dumped him in the stadium last night, and they didn't make sense, so they could only be tortured by him and had no power to fight back.

However, Chamberlain didn't go to Samael to settle accounts, he felt that this guy was amazing, and his encounter with Li Qun last night seemed to have been in this guy's calculations.

In order to appease Chamberlain's resentment, Jackson, Davis, Barnes and others coaxed him with good things, and they took out newspapers to show him and praised him from various angles:

"Look at this, California Sportsman, and see what it says. Last night, the giant Goliath landed at the Staples Center Arena, and he won 30 minutes in the mall, scoring a triple-double, including almost breaking 20 rebounds, breaking many league records. Z, you're famous, you're completely famous! ”

"What is this? Take a look at the report of "Red Sports", the Warriors have the best rookie debut in the history of the league, if the Chinese young man named Chamberlain continues to perform like this, the San Francisco will soon win the O'Brien Cup, what does a young man who can get a triple-double on his debut mean? What does it mean for a young center who comes off the bench and can also cut 18 rebounds? In this age of lack of quality big men, everything speaks for itself......"

"That's not bad, it's the Philadelphia Sentinel's news—oh Chang, you're so happy that the Philadelphia Sentinel is paying attention to you! Chamberlain took his first steps on the road to legend, and the young man who never participated in the draft presented a huge puzzle to the whole world, where did he come from? Why is it that such a wonderful young man we didn't know before? ”

Chamberlain listened triumphantly as these people read the good things in the newspapers to praise him, in fact he had read this stack of newspapers, and many of them were questioning his news, but Jackson and the others obviously would not read those news to disgust him.

Almost everyone read a piece of the news, and then Jackson hung his eyelids and asked, "Z, are you satisfied now?" Can you give us a good night's sleep? ”

It is about 400 miles from Los Angeles to San Francisco, that is, about 600 kilometers, and this time they came to play without a special plane, the distance is relatively short, and it is more appropriate to take a bus. Sleeping on the spacious bus was the only thing the players could do, especially with the gang having an all-nighter last night.

Chamberlain refused: "That's not good, you hurt a rookie's young heart last night, so ......" His mobile phone rang, and as soon as Chamberlain saw that the caller ID was Sackmond's phone, he let go of Jackson and his party, waved his hand and said, "Count yourself lucky, Uncle Chamberlain is kind-hearted and broad-minded and forgives you, okay, get out of the way and go to sleep!" ”

"Praise be to Chamberlain, O God!" Ellis said weakly, grabbed a seat in the front row, lay down and began to sleep.

Old Nelson looked back at this scene with a satisfied smile on his face, every team has a tradition of bullying newcomers, but the Warriors have done a good job at this point, the team is united, Chamberlain has only been here for less than ten days to integrate into the team, such a group of brothers together, playing games is obviously better.

Doug Sackmond was one of Chamberlain's best friends, and his best comrade-in-arms on the court in the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. Chamberlain's reputation was only loud in the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades, and in high school, when he was diagnosed with gigantism, he became obscure, but Sacmund was not like that.

Sackmond was San Francisco's most watched high school student of all time, once known as the No. 1 point guard in the United States, and his fight with O.J. Mayo was once the most interesting place in the national high school league in high school, when Sacmund won the favor of many stars, such as the king of singing JAY-Z, the famous director Spike Lee, and the New York Yankees star Derrick Kitt was also his die-hard fan.

Throughout high school, Sakmund was the pride of San Francisco fans, and everyone believed that he would become the best NBA star San Francisco had ever seen, and the elder Nelson was also familiar with him, and it was rumored that one of the reasons why the old coach was willing to leave the Mavericks and come to the Warriors to regain the reins was that the Warriors' management promised to do everything they could to pick him up when Sakmund participated in the draft.

In his three years of high school, Sacmund led him and Chamberlain's St. Lawrence High School to the Western High School League, playing against opponents who lost their armor, and Duke Blue Devils head coach Mike Shashewski said that he should go straight to the NBA after watching his game, and there was no guard who could match him in high school or even in college league.

In 2005, after attending the Nike High School Summit in Sacmund and winning the MVP, Isaiah Thomas, then the general manager of the New York Knicks, once said: "If I have the No. 1 pick in my hand, if Sakmund participates in this year's draft, then I will not hesitate to take him." ”

Isaiah Thomas's career as a general manager is notorious, but he has an extremely accurate eye for people, including Maddie and David Lee, who were all favored by him at the beginning. And he is naturally best known for his career with the Pistons.

Known as one of the three best point guards in NBA history, Mr. 'Smiling Assassin' knows a lot about point guards, but even he has a lot of praise for Sakmund, which shows how glamorous this guy was in high school.

Unfortunately, everything changed in the summer of 2005.

In the summer of 2005, after Sacmund received an invitation from the University of Kentucky, the ecstatic family decided to go on vacation to Los Angeles, only to be in a car accident on the highway where Chamberlain and others are now walking.

The crash devastated Sakmund and his family, killing his parents instantly, seriously injuring his younger brother Hitt Sacmund, and suffering a torn ligament in his left knee and two nerves, which the doctors who treated him at the time had asserted that he would have to rely on crutches for the rest of his life.

As a result, after a year of rehabilitation, Sakmund successfully stood on the court again, but this time he went to the NBDL, and he could never go to the NBA again, and his physical fitness really could not support him to step on the NBA court. However, relying on skillful skills and superhuman awareness, Sakmund has become the top playmaker in the NBDL.

How high would Sackmond have achieved without this crash? Chamberlain doesn't know what to do, but he can't be sure that if Sackmond is not injured, then the NBA point guards at this time should not be Paul, Delon, Kidd, and Nash.

If it hadn't been for that damn crash, Sakmund would have been in the draft this season, and then he would have come to Chamberlain's current team, as expected by the Warriors.

Although Chamberlain in high school became a waste on the basketball court, Sacmund always regarded him as a comrade-in-arms, played with him all the time, and encouraged him not to give up on himself, so the two had a very good relationship, but now Sacmund has gone to the NBDL Bulls in Austin, and the two are far apart, so there is less contact.

In fact, now Chamberlain is a little confused, he feels that the current situation is very unreal, all this belongs to Sacmund, it is Sakmund's perfect debut, it is Sakmund's appearance that helped the Warriors promise the Warriors, everything should be replaced by Sacmund.

Looking at Sakmund's name on the phone, Chamberlain fell into the memory of the past, and it was not until the phone rang that he came to his senses and quickly called Sakmund back.

After a beep, the phone was immediately connected, and Sakmund's rough voice sounded: "Hey, Zhang, I can't believe it, you were the one who taught the Lakers a lesson last night in Los Angeles buddy?" If I hadn't read the newspaper today, I wouldn't have known all this was happening! You bastard, you actually joined the NBA? Why don't you tell me? ”

Not only did he not tell Sackmond, but Chamberlain didn't even tell his parents and family about it, because it was all too incredible: a man with gigantism, who had been sentenced to death by sports, suddenly had a super powerful body? It's too incredible to be accepted at all.

Therefore, Chamberlain only found a random neighborhood to rent next to the Oracle Arena accompanied by Samael, in fact, the arena was not very far from his house, but he did not dare to go home, because he could not explain to his family why he was suddenly so physically fit.

Sure enough, as soon as Sacmund called, the first question he asked was such a question, how could Chamberlain answer?
