Chapter 57: Two groups of people rob

Half an hour later, John Wooden used the computer to send the information to the table, and after a while, he checked the registration information on the official website.

If China is a society of human feelings, then the United States is a society of human connections. John Wooden is a giant in the basketball world, so he has connections, and it is naturally easy to do this kind of thing.

After the registration was completed, John Wooden kept Xiao Shi again, but did not continue to teach basketball because everything he could teach had already been taught to Xiao Sa.

However, today he is very strict, he talks about work.

"Next, maybe you're going to be a professional footballer right away, do you know what a professional footballer is?" John Wooden opened his mouth very strictly, which he had never done before, even when he had been teaching before.

Xiao Sao was a little frightened by the old man's Yan SΓΉ, but he still answered his thoughts very truthfully: "It is to regard basketball as his own job, rely on this job to support his family, and change his life." ”

"Yes." John Wooden nodded: "Basketball is a job, the same job as a plumber and an electrician, but the type of work is different, but it is essentially the same." In the current league, there are many players who are not working hard, they are overwhelmed by the overwhelming spotlight, by the cheers of the crowd, and by the countless high wages. They began to see themselves as stars, not players. They treat playing as a catwalk, not a job. ”

Hearing this, Xiao nodded silently.

"There are too many ** in this league. Many young people become millionaires, multi-millionaires overnight, and they change their destiny in an instant. As a result, I forgot why I wanted to play basketball. John Wooden continued earnestly, "You are my most proud student, although I have not taught you for long. But I don't want you to be one of them, understand? ”

Xiao nodded vigorously, but still did not make a sound.

At this time, John Wooden continued to ask, "Can you sue me why you played?" ”

Xiao Sa thought for a while and replied seriously: "The reason why I got into basketball is because I want to find a job that can earn money. I heard that basketball is very profitable, so I practiced basketball hard and worked hard to make myself stronger. ”

Xiao Sa replied very seriously, and John Wooden also listened very seriously, he was silent for a few seconds, raised his head, and stared at Xiao Sa with old and somewhat cloudy eyes: "Will you always take your work seriously?" ”

"Of course." Xiao Shi replied in the affirmative.

"I hope you will always remember your words today. I don't want to see you in the NBA corrupted by all that overwhelming temptation and vanity. After all, you're my proudest student. John Wooden stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Spo's shoulder, and his sternness instantly turned to prudence.

Xiao Shao looked at the old man in front of him, and his heart was full of respect.

"Alright, go ahead. I'll ask George to take you to training camp in Orlando tomorrow. I'll pay the fee first, and when you have the money, it's not too late to pay it back to me. John Wooden patted the back of his hand, full of love, like a grandson who had told him to go on a long journey.

Xiao Shao couldn't hold back for a while, tears slipped down, he bent down deeply, and gave John Wooden a bow close to 0 degrees.

"Thank you, you changed my fate." Xiao said from the bottom of his heart.

"Work hard, kid." John Wooden just smiled and didn't say anything more.

Early the next morning, Xiao Sa boarded the plane to the Orlando training camp. Sitting next to him was George, the guy who had repeatedly said he was going to fight Xiao Shao again.

Orlando Gym is a gym that most rookies attend, except for the hot rookies, who basically flew around after announcing their participation in the draft, and they had to go to the major teams for tryouts.

But luckily, this time Westbrook and Kevin Loew were here.

This makes Xiao Xiao at least not so lonely.

The other news is that his agent, Miss Barbara, has finally returned from a trip around Europe, and she is going to meet with Xiao Shi in Orlando and then have some substantive discussions about signing an employment contract.

This can also be regarded as good news for Xiao Shao.

And in fact, the good news is not limited to that. Another piece of good news that Xiao Xiao didn't know was that when Byron Davis negotiated with the Los Angeles Clippers, he threw out an extremely important condition: his little brother must be selected in the draft, Xiao Sao.

This is quite unreasonable condition, and no one would do such an unprofessional bundling. However, Byron Davis said very strongly that if he can't, then he will sign with another team.

This condition made their first encounter end without a problem. Then, Neil Orsche, the general manager of their human resources department, and McDonleavy immediately investigated the unfamiliar name of Xiao Sha.

Then, to their great surprise, an apology appeared in all the newspapers in Los Angeles, which read: "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, my rudeness and arrogance have hurt you." Jeanie Bass would like to send you our sincerest apologies and ask for your understanding. Jenny Buss.

The name Jeanie Buss is undoubtedly one of the most familiar names to the general manager of the Clippers, after all, the Lakers are their sworn enemies in the same city. Although they are not opponents of the same level at the moment, it is their duty to pay attention to their opponents.

They hurriedly launched an investigation into this clue, and from the Lakers insiders, they got the most detailed inside story yesterday.

In this insider, they distilled three very important clues.

And none of these three clues have anything to do with the disgraced Jeanie Buss, after all, it's just gossip.

The first clue is that they learned that Xiao Shi's body measurement number jΓΉ is very amazing. The second clue is that they learn that Xiao Xiao is a shooting genius. And the third clue is that Kobe Bryant said loudly that Xiao is a genius and asked the team to sign him quickly.

These three clues instantly ignited a fanatical interest in the hearts of Dunleavy and Olsie, after all, this is a genius praised by Kobe Bryant, and his shooting and body are so good. The most important thing is that he is a mortal enemy with the Lakers, and this is simply a talent tailored for the Clippers!

At this time, they also found the registration news of Xiao Shi on the official website of the NBA, and they also learned that Xiao Shi had gone to Orlando training camp.

So, Dunleavy immediately sent Olchea and the three most important scouts of the scouting department to Orlando. They want to get the most comprehensive report if the results of this report are optimistic. Then the Clippers will not hesitate to agree to Byron Davis' terms.

I have no idea what is going on on the Clippers' side.

What he didn't know was that the Thunder's Sam Presti had also sent their most capable scouts to Orlando, with a focus on Westbrook, Serge Ibaka and Shaw, as they now have three first-round picks. If they pass the scout, they will select Westbrook at No. 4 and Ibaka at No. 24 and No. 29.

It was their plan and they barely thought about the other players again, barring some deflection surprises.

But they think the likelihood of an accident happening is very, very low.

Because according to the current draft market, Westbrook's pick is probably between eighth and tenth, and Ibaka is unfavored, a pure dark horse. Finally chic, and I have never heard of it. Therefore, they are still full of confidence in coming up with such a signing.
