Chapter 15: First Arrival in Cleveland

Zhang Kong did not go to the Cavaliers to report for the first time, and came to the unfamiliar Cleveland, the first place he went to was the street court, and the experience in New York made him completely like the atmosphere of the street court, in addition to gambling on the ball can make him easily get a little pocket money, the more important reason is because he likes the atmosphere of love for basketball.

I know very well that after entering the NBA, I am afraid that there will be a long time without being able to fight on the street court, and Zhang Kong, who has been reborn, cherishes the present day when he can still play on the street court. As for choosing streetball, give up the NBA...... Zhang Kong didn't think about this.

Since he has the strength of the top center, of course, he has to go to the top league and face the strongest opponents to prove himself.

He doesn't know God, Buddha, Allah, the Great God...... No matter who really fancied something about him as an otaku, let him be reborn, and let him have such an ability. But now that he was born again, he wanted to make his life as happy as possible.

In this way, he will not lose the opportunity to live again.

After a month of fighting on the street court, Zhang Kong completely conquered the street court around Cleveland, and now it is like being in Rock Park in New York, the players on the street court call him KING, no one tries to beat him, but they are proud to be able to play basketball with him.

If there is anything that makes Zhang Kong feel dissatisfied, it is that the street ball players in Cleveland, in terms of strength, are obviously much worse than those masters in New York, no one can give Zhang Kong the feeling of being completely nervous like Black Widow, although the game with Black Widow ended in his complete victory, but Zhang Kong had to admit that when fighting, he did have a sense of danger that Black Widow could penetrate the defense at any time.

And that's the feeling that the Cleveland streetball players can't bring to him.

Also, the streetball atmosphere in Cleveland is much worse than that in New York, after all, the kind of basketball Mecca in New York is not available everywhere, even in the United States, where basketball is popular.

After completing the conquest of the street court and the summer league is basically over, Zhang Kongtao casually called Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown and said that he was coming to report. In the afternoon, Zhang Kong, who had taken a nap, slowly stopped a car and went to the Quick Loan Arena from the apartment he rented.

When Zhang Kong arrived at the Quick Loan Arena, he saw a middle-aged white man who looked strange: "Hello Mr. Zhang Kong, I am the assistant coach of the Cavaliers, you can call me Adam, welcome to the Cavaliers." I'm your fan, sign me later. ”

"Hello." Zhang Kong shook hands with Adam, of course he knew that his second round end show could not be taken seriously by the team, don't think about the welcome ceremony or anything, Zhang Kong originally thought that no one would come to greet him, but he didn't expect the Cavaliers to send an assistant coach.

But the fans?

"Hey, I've seen you play at Rock Park." A smile appeared on Adam's face: "You're really amazing, whether it's a slam dunk or defense, to be honest, I also accidentally glanced at the information to know that you are actually this year's rookie." But you're a little late......"

Adam shrugged his shoulders: "Mr. Mike Brown just got angry and said you were too arrogant. But whatever, you're arrogant, you're the king of Rock Park. The only KING! ”

"Heh~~~" Zhang Kong couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect that he could actually meet the fans in New York in Cleveland, and immediately felt much more comfortable: "Thank you, Adam." ”

"It's nothing, let's go do the side of the body first, and then go to the general manager to sign the contract."

"It's incredible! It's incredible! ”

Adam walked all the way into the equipment room with Zhang Kong, and ten minutes later, he rushed out like crazy with a piece of paper, sprinting and yelling at the same time.

"What's wrong with him?" The Cavaliers who were training looked at the crazy Adam and looked at each other: "Are you crazy?" ”

"God knows, but didn't he just pick up that rookie, is it that rookie's business?"

"Rookie?"

"Yes, I've heard that Haoxiang is famous on the streets of New York."

"Rookie?" LeBron James, the star of the Cavaliers (I'm not really the head coach), listened to his teammates' conversation with a thoughtful look on his face.

Danny Fee, as the general manager of the Cavaliers, although not judged to be brain-dead, has been almost ignored for a long time. It's because he didn't make any commendable deals, and certainly not the kind of deals that were too brain-dead.

All in all, it is a position below the passing line, but not too much worse, and it is 108,000 miles away from the range of excellent general managers.

If there's anything commendable about him, it's the 2003 draft, where he drafted the top pick LeBron James, and the Cavaliers, who had been dormant for more than a decade, began to rise.

But that year, as long as he wasn't brain-dead, no matter who got the top pick, he would choose LeBron James. But that doesn't mean he's a man without ambition.

He has been a player for the Cavaliers since his retirement and has been in the management of the Cavaliers since retiring, working his way up from a small assistant coach to the general manager position, with the goal of becoming the top general manager like Larry Bird and Pat Riley.

But this requires competence and, more importantly, qualifications. So he's been trying to make some deals to prove himself, but alas, he's asking for too much and giving too little leverage.

But when Adam, an assistant coach he didn't even know well, placed a piece of paper in front of him, Danny Fee's eyes widened and he had a hunch that his moment of happiness seemed to have arrived.

"This is the rookie, the last rookie of the second round we traded?" Danny Ferry's eyes widened: "Didn't you take the body data of Wilt Chamberlain or Bill Russell when he was younger, didn't you take it wrong?" ”

"Hey, general manager, even if you want, where can I find the physical test data of those two people for you? They didn't have a physical test at the time. Instead of being dissatisfied, Adam was full of excitement: "It's his, yes, it's the guy's, everything is real." Mr. Danny, we have picked up the baby, the best baby, better than Oden! ”
