Chapter 5: First Shot of NBA Debut
In the days when the NBA preseason started, Luo Long did not stop training for himself, and Uncle Han hired a strong logistics team for him.
There are 5 top trainers, 2 nutritionists, 3 masseurs, and 5 doctors...... There are even 10 full-time maids sent by the Luo family (young and beautiful and qualified by international servant qualification training).
Not to mention chartering one of the best local training halls in Minnesota for Luo Long's private use.
This is the fundamental reason why Luo Long is absent from team training and pre-season: he has the capital to rely on his family's resources to get better training results in private.
In addition to running and shooting on the sweaty court, in the huge equipment training room, 5 sexy beauty trainers with their own merits are dressed coolly to accompany and guide Luo Long, who is constantly playing iron.
Since ancient times, China has red sleeves to add fragrance.
In fact, during strength training, there are several sexy beauties around who touch each other from time to time, coupled with the faint body fragrance and female smell on the beauties, there is a sense of blood that makes men full of strength when training.
For the iron idiots in the gym, a sexy beauty with a wow-out figure throwing a wink at them in tights can double the training effect of this group of iron idiots.
This is the nature of men, and the secretion of testosterone will soar because of beautiful women, this is science, not. And Luo Tie was surrounded by so many sexy beauties, he just admired it and devoted himself to training.
The descendant of this rich family in China, the only purpose for him to play in the magnesium country is the basketball dream, and at this moment, Xin Luolong is not only playing basketball because of the responsibility for the original owner's dream, he has a character: pure masters don't need to explain, or don't do it, if you want to do it, you have to be the best in the industry!
β¦β¦
Time flies.
On October 29, 2008, in the Wolves' own home arena, the Target Center, Luo Long's NBA debut game was about to begin.
The arena wasn't packed to the brim, and Minnesota fans lost their enthusiasm for the team after Wolves King Garnett left.
And at this moment, only Al Jefferson still has some combat power in the starting line of the Wolves, after all, he must still have a certain amount of court power as the weight of the Wolves King Garnett to exchange for Green Kai.
Head coach Randy Hortman was unhappy with Rolong's absence from team training and the playoffs, but at the behest of his boss, he promised to give the Chinese man at least 15 minutes of playing time in his debut.
Hotman looked at Luo Long's arrogant and flamboyant appearance, and secretly complained in his heart: Who is this Huaxia? Aren't Chinese people all humble and polite? This guy looks more like a crusader ranger.
And when Luo Long greeted Hortman, Luo Long made Hortman swear to swear to kill this arrogant kid in the substitute rotation.
"Hello, you should feel honored because you are going to be the beneficiary of my domination of the league. Trust me to make your wisest decision, or you're an idiot. β
Hortman held back his anger and said with a cold face:
"Very good, looking forward to your efforts."
When the game started, Luo Long was a little disappointed to find that he was not in the starting list, which made him feel discriminated against, but Luo Long did not go crazy on the spot.
Although Luo Long's temperament is very arrogant, he is not stupid enough to give the coach a chance to clean him up.
There are many ways to counter-attack, such as waiting for him to play better, and he believes that the coach's opinion of him will change a lot.
This is competitive sports: you can have character, you can engage in special, and you can even eat with your toes...... You can fool around as much as you want, but there is a premise for all of this, and that is that you can play on the pitch to match your personality.
If you're a superstar, you're qualified for lawlessness.
Luo Long, who is well versed in the rules of competitive sports stadiums, knows that Hortman's dissatisfaction with him is actually just a lack of sufficient understanding of his strength, and whether he can give himself cold words or not depends on his good relationship with the Wolves owner.
This made Luo Long feel even more fun.
He didn't come to play the NBA in the magnesium country to make money, he wanted pure basketball, and what he needed was greater challenges and problems, because for Luo Long, even the 800 million debt has been paid off, what else can he not accomplish?
The first quarter ended quickly, and the Wolves' starting five did not surprise Hodman, who trailed by a full seven points in the first quarter after a steady play.
Hortman has been tempered by these Wolves players.
Even if you kill them, they won't be able to play better, so Hortman won't lose his temper much.
However, in the face of a famous crotch-pulling team in the league like the Kings, they even played lifeless, and they looked like they were coping with errands, so that Hortman couldn't help but scold them twice:
"You pigs! How do you defend those balls, and are your shots at elementary school level......"
Just as the players of the team were smiling cheekily in disapproval, a discordant voice appeared.
"I'm willing to bet that if you let me play, we'll be able to come back and win, even outrun our opponents by more than 10 points in a quarter!"
Luo Long stood up with a confident evil smile and spoke disdainfully in disdain for the whole team.
Sure enough, he immediately reaped the dissatisfaction of the whole team.
It's just a rookie who just came to the team and didn't care about the feelings of the rest of the team...... However, I have to admit that they admired this guy with a lot of courage.
If you are humble and polite to him, if you are tolerant and generous, Europeans and Americans will think that you are a coward and a weakling.
However, if you beat the Europeans and Americans so hard that they cry and call their mothers with a few punches when they are gaining an inch, and let him realize that you are powerful, the Europeans and Americans will not only not hate you in the future, but will respect you, praise you, and recognize your independence and dignity.
And the same is true in the NBA.
Luo Long's rudeness did not make Hortman angry, but instead gave the coach, who was worried about not being able to boost the morale of the team, a glimmer of hope for the team to cheer up.
"Very well, Rowe, you said it well. I want all of you to learn from him, this was his first debut, but I didn't see a hint of fear or flinching in his eyes. But look at you people, how many games you've played, and now you don't have the passion for the game and the desire to win. β
After saying this, Hotman actually showed a smile to Luo Long and said:
"Rowe, when the second quarter starts, you'll be on the court in place of Jefferson. Listen, I've given you the opportunity, and it's up to you what kind of results you get. If you disappoint me, think about the consequences. β
Luo Long held his head high and said directly:
"I said I was going to lead the team to a score advantage of more than 10 points, and I did what I said!"
β¦β¦
After the intermittent timeout, Luo Long walked into the court with his head held high like a mighty king, and walked into the court with steady steps.
And the moment he stepped into the court, the cold mechanical voice of the system sounded in Luo Long's mind again.
γDing! New Quest Inspires! γ
[Mission content: Complete the debut game, defeat the Kings, and score at least 20+ points in the debut.] γ
[Mission Reward: Jordan's special skill mastery +1%, permanent increase in strength by 10% card +1.] γ
Luo Long was ecstatic in his heart.
He can see in his pre-season personal training that for every 1% increase in mastery of the two special moves he possesses at the moment, his strength will grow by leaps and bounds.
At this moment, the system panel shows: Jordan's nirvana (11%), Kobe Bryant's nirvana (10%).
In his personal training, he has made all the trainers sincerely sigh that he is a rare Chinese basketball super genius in a century.
Therefore, as long as he can complete more tasks and earn rewards as the new season progresses, he believes that he will one day fulfill his promise: "Dominate the NBA and make all NBA stars tremble when they see him!" β
Thinking about it made Luo Long couldn't help but be excited and excited, and a crazy smile immediately appeared on his face that made people want to beat him.
The referee blew the whistle for the start of the game.
In the opening jump ball session, Luo Long took advantage of the bouncing advantage brought by Jordan's nirvana, and with a height disadvantage of 8 cm, he held the basketball with both hands in the air one step ahead of him and pulled the ball down.
In terms of rebounding and blocking, Luo Long's talent is no problem even if he is an ordinary blue-collar interior in the NBA.
However, then, to the shock of the fans, the tall and unfamiliar Huaxia power forward did not pass the ball to his team's guard, but played an amazingly smooth crotch dribble and quickly dribbled the ball through the half.
Magic Johnson??
All-Star Game O'Neal imitated Iverson's famous dribbling scene??
The home fans have a question mark on their faces .jpg
Because of the absence of team training, Luo Long also shocked Wolves head coach Hortman, because Luo Long's dribbling skills have the taste of a defender.
Then, without waiting for everyone to digest Luo Long's dribble, Luo Long took advantage of his speed to pass the opposing defender in one step, and then stepped into the inside.
The Kings' defense immediately shrank to the inside, they still don't know the details of this Chinese interior player, they only know that the NBA has Yao and Yi, both of whom are terrible opponents who must not be empty on the inside.
However, what everyone on the Kings team didn't expect was that when Luo Long rushed to the edge of the box at high speed, he suddenly paused and took a big step back, and then shot a dry jump shot like a shooting guard.
οΌοΌοΌ
You're a big forward, okay.
Please don't play with the actions of a defender, okay?
And looking at Luo Long's smooth and elegant shooting posture, as well as his natural control of the offensive rhythm in high-speed movements, Hortman really forgot Luo Long's rude words just now.
Maybe this young man can really bring a special change to Wolves?
"Huh!"
With the blessing of Jordan's nirvana, Luo Long's ball easily entered the basket.
And the three towers on the inside of the Kings, as well as the Wolves center who cut inward, all looked dumbfounded at Luo Long with an arrogant and provocative face.
"Haha, pigs, wait for me to slaughter and eat meat!"
The Kings' interior players glared angrily, but looking at Luo Long's height of 208cm and his muscular muscles, they honestly kept their cool.
And the audience at the scene became a sea of joy.
Minnesota fans didn't expect that this newly arrived Chinese rookie player would have such an accurate drop-back shot, and they felt that the team would improve in the new season.
You might even make it to the playoffs!
β°(*Β°β½Β°*)β―
Among these fans, a small number of Chinese fans also took out their mobile phones to inform their partners that they had an NBA star in the Chinese circle, his name is Luo Long!
It is conceivable that in the next home game, there will be a lot more Chinese fans on the scene.
Luo Long looked up at the audience on the court and shouted:
"15 points more! I will put an end to it with my own hands, so that you can experience the joy of madness! β
In response to Luo Long, there was an explosion of cheers and shouts from the home fans.
Many people are starting to like this Chinese player, and this is what the new Wolves star should look like.
The fans are very relieved.
Well~~~
