"This, perhaps, is a little difficult." Schwartz thought for a moment and said.

"Because of the money?"

"No, it's not money, you know, Grover isn't a personal trainer anymore, and the last player he worked with was Dwyane Wade." Schwartz explained.

The profession of trainer did not exist when basketball was born, and its origin can be traced back to Grover.

Grover, who was 23 years old and had just graduated from college, found Jordan, who had already made a name for himself at the time, but had just missed almost an entire season due to injury.

No one knows what method he used, but he managed to convince the basketball god to become a guinea pig again.

It was after that that the 2.0 version of the steel skeleton Jordan appeared.

Jordan was largely no longer plagued by injuries, Grover became famous, and the profession of trainer was officially introduced.

Or more accurately, at that time it should be called a physical trainer, but with the development, many aspects have been refined.

Xu Yong first learned about Grover when he was a child collecting Jordan's newspaper in his previous life.

After cooperating with Jordan, he successively cooperated with Grant Hill, Kobe, Maddy, and Wade.

As you can see from this list, this is simply the king engine.

This is also the reason why Xu Yong mentioned him immediately after finalizing the agent contract.

It's just that Schwartz's answer made him a little regretful.

If Grover can't get it, he'll have to settle for Procopio or Phil Handy.

However, just as Xu Yong was about to speak, Schwartz's words made things take a turn for the better: "But he will still hold some training camps now, and I can go back and find out about his arrangements." ”

"No problem." Xu Yong nodded happily.

He doesn't necessarily have to work with Grover, he just needs to know exactly how to train and try to achieve Jordan's physical fitness.

This is not wishful thinking, because of injury immunity, his physical development will not be lower than Jordan's.

But the premise is that he needs the most scientific training method, and that method, only Grover can give.

Schwartz was so efficient that he called Xu the next day and said that Grover would hold a training camp in Chicago in a week for just over a few thousand dollars, and he had already booked a spot.

And when Xu Yong said to pay, Schwartz had already paid the money.

"That's part of the broker's investment." Schwartz's words gave Xu Yong some new understanding of the profession of agent.

According to Schwartz, before the draft, agents make some investments in players, most often arranging airfare and hotels for rookie tryouts.

Because most of the rookies are students, and there are too many black poor players on the American side.

However, Schwartz is an additional investment, which also shows that he is really optimistic about Xu Yong.

Xu Yong didn't think that he was short-handed.

Because it is said that it is an investment, it will naturally pay off.

Changing positions, Xu Yongdu can't wait to give himself a set of one-stop services.

The player feels your kindness, the commission for the next contract is high, and the little money invested becomes a dime.

A week later, Xu Yong flew to Chicago.

Grover just has a card, and the training camp was actually held in the training hall of the United Center.

And the reason why this time node was chosen is because the Bulls have been eliminated.

The Bulls finished seventh in the East this year and faced the defending champions, the Celtics, who finished second in the East, before being eliminated after seven games.

However, Rose played with style, scoring 36 points and 11 assists on 12-of-19 shooting in his NBA playoff debut, and the media in Chicago shouted that a new Jordan had appeared.

It is necessary to repeat here that Rose also wore number 23 when he played at the University of Memphis.

It was the first time Xu Yong had come to the United Center, and when he came to the door, he quickly saw the bronze statue standing at the door.jpg.

The overall structure of this three-meter-five-high statue is Jordan's aerial strolling posture of the free throw line dunk in the slam dunk contest that year, but the difference is that there is an extra dunk figure under Jordan's crotch.

As for who this person is, it has been hotly discussed, and some people say that it is the "gorilla" Ewing, after all, Jordan really detained Ewing back then;

Some people also say that it is Carl Malone, after all, "being slotted" is about the same as "background board", and when it comes to Jordan's biggest background board, it must be Malone;

Some people also say that it is "Magic" Johnson, after all, Jordan crossed Johnson's generation to become [the new sheriff in town].

There are different opinions, but no one knows who it is except the designer.

Xu Yong's gaze was quickly drawn to the sentence under the sculpture.

“The.best.there.ever.was，The.best.there.ever.will.be.”

As a Chinese, after reading this sentence, Xu Yong directly came up with a sentence in his mind: "There is no one before, and there is no one after." ”

Eight words, a majestic momentum rushed to the face.

The breadth and profundity of the Chinese language is simply a killer to translate this kind of.

However, only Jordan is worthy of such a caption.

If you replace Jordan with someone else, even if it's a future GOAT, you're guaranteed to be splashed with paint the next day.

That is, after reading this sentence, Xu Yong had an answer to the question of "who is the person who is being is" in his heart.

It shouldn't be a specific person, because if it's a certain person, it's meaningless if the fame is small, and the person who is deducted when the fame is big will definitely not do it.

So it should refer to "an era".

Jordan leaped through an era, and then became the one who never came before or since.

This can be seen in the shape of the person who is spaced, because it is a shadow shape.

And after having this answer, Xu Yong was inexplicably heroic in his heart.

In an instant, a statue of Jordan was also erected in his heart.

That's his idol, the great god of basketball.

He took a deep breath and walked briskly into the United Center.

After confirming his identity, the security guards let him into the training gym.

Because he was a narrator before he was reborn, he developed a habit of arriving at the place earlier than the agreed time.

Being a narrator is about preparing for the re-examination and relaxation at the same time.

It's just a matter of getting used to it, and seeing Schwartz before is that the advantage of doing so is that it will make others feel your respect.

This time he participated in the training camp too, in order to make a good impression in Grover's mind, he was half an hour early.

So when he entered the training hall, he found that it was empty.

He seems to have arrived a little too early.

However, when a basketball player arrives at the training gym, it is not easy to find something to do.

He went to the rack and pulled a basket out, practiced shooting and warmed up.

However, he had just pulled the ball out, and before he could start warming up, he heard footsteps outside the door.

He followed the sound to the back door, and when the footsteps reached the door, he also saw the person who had entered.

His breath was held for a moment.

That unique temperament, like a sculpture suddenly coming to life.

The person who came in turned out to be Jordan!

This was something he hadn't expected at all, as Jordan was already the small owner of the Bobcats at this time, so he should theoretically live in Charlotte.

And at the time of the NCAA finals, Jordan was to support North Carolina, but Jordan's appearance at the Union Center at this time was really unexpected.

Jordan soon saw him too.

The two men looked at each other.

Then, Jordan blurted out: "The caddy there, come and play heads-up with me." ”

The moment he heard the words, Xu Yong, who was originally excited in his heart, was stunned on the spot, and the Jordan statue in his heart collapsed.
