NBA: Top 3D talents to start

Chapter 456 Rookie, do you understand the rules?

"Wang Feng, the team now hopes to sign a ten-day short-term contract with you, and use ten days to further examine whether your level can really adapt to the rhythm of the NBA game."

Van Gundy looked at Wang Feng who he "loved and hated" in front of him and said.

Wang Feng took the ten-day short-term contract handed over by the other party, and briefly glanced at it.

Ten days, salary one thousand dollars.

If it is changed in the future, this contract is like sending a beggar.

After all, the minimum short-term contract for the next ten days will be about [-] US dollars.

But this kind of thing is incomparable.

2022年NBA的工资帽是1.236亿美元,而1995年时,NBA的工资帽仅为不到1600万美元,差的不是01:30点。

In 95, $1000 was reasonable enough. You can get $1000 in ten days. Many people would never dream of it.

Even Wang Xu's fast food restaurant can't earn a thousand dollars in ten days.

More importantly, this is just a transition. During the 10-day inspection period, as long as Wang Feng can conquer the Knicks with his performance, there is no suspense in getting a guaranteed contract.

Therefore, without any hesitation, Wang Feng simply signed his name on it.

"Wang, congratulations on becoming a member of the Knicks. Although it is only temporary, I have confidence in you." Larry smiled and congratulated Wang Feng.

"Thank you."

Wang Feng thanked him very sincerely.

Although Wang Feng has absolute confidence in his own strength, no matter what, the Knicks scout Larry is definitely his bole. Without Larry, Wang Feng does not know how long he will continue to play in Rock Park Ball can get a chance to enter the NBA.

……

A day later, the dusty Knicks returned to New York.

Overall, the Knicks are very satisfied with this road trip.

Since losing to the Bulls in the Christmas game, the Knicks have won all three games after that, including yesterday's away game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

In this way, the Knicks won three consecutive victories, which also made many media criticize the team and head coach Pat Riley because of the loss in the Christmas game.

This made Pat Riley a lot better in his recent bad mood.

Sitting in his office, he sipped the hand-ground coffee his assistant had just brewed.

Riley picked up a newspaper.

Just before he could take a closer look at how the local New York sports media commented on the Knicks' three-game winning streak, Van Gundy came.

"Jeff."

Riley put down the newspaper and smiled at his right-hand man.

"Pat, that Huaguo player Wang Feng has signed with a short-term contract of ten days." Van Gundy said to Riley: "I think he is really good and has the value of staying."

As he spoke, he handed Riley the detailed report of Wang Feng's trial training.

"Oh." Riley raised an eyebrow slightly.

Van Gundy didn't mention it, he almost forgot.

To be honest, Riley didn't really believe what Van Gundy said on the phone.

As a well-known legendary coach in the league, the fortune teller Pat Riley has seen too many storms, but he has never seen even a yellow-skinned player after being in the league for so many years.

Like the vast majority of people in this era, when it comes to Asia, he also thinks that there is a desert of basketball, lacking a scientific youth training system, no formal competitions, and talents can produce outstanding basketball players?It's a bit of a stretch.

Moreover, the trial training is only a reference standard for the overall quality of the players, and the test results cannot directly represent the performance of the opponent in the official game.

With this in mind, Riley opened Wang Feng's trial training report.

Then, his expression froze.

The astonishing and dazzling data made Riley seriously doubt whether the trial training report was wrongly written.

But for Van Gundy's ability to work, Riley will not question.

Therefore, this trial training report is true.

However, Riley soon saw reports about Wang Feng's age.

"This Wang Feng is already 30 years old?"

Riley frowned.

At this age, anyone will think it is too big.

"Well, his age is a little bit older, but his technical style has already formed, and he can become an excellent immediate combat force after adapting to the rhythm of the NBA game a little bit, without any problems."

"That depends on the actual situation."

Riley put the workout report aside. "Where is he now?"

"Practice on the practice field," Van Gundy said.

……

inside the training ground.

Wang Feng is practicing self-picking in a field.

Not far from him, several Knicks players looked at Wang Feng with surprise in their eyes.

"What does that guy do?"

"I don't know, I don't know him, he probably isn't from the team."

"It's the first time I've seen an Asian face in the arena. Is he a relative of the team owner or management to experience the daily training of a professional basketball team?"

Some team members were just talking in a low voice in the distance, but someone had already stepped up on their own initiative.

"Hey, boy, what are you doing here?"

Wang Feng stopped shooting and turned his head to look.

In front of him was a burly black and hard man.

Wang Feng knew him. This was Charles Oakley, a representative figure of the league's blue-collar insiders in the 90s, who could be compared with members of the Pistons Bad Boys.

To be fair, Wang Feng doesn't have a good impression of Oakley. The opponent is not a star himself, and he doesn't have any idol halo. Moreover, Wang Feng once saw what Dayao, who was still a rookie, said in an interview after he confronted Oakley.

"He (Oakley) is not fighting you, he is going to fight you."

Wang Feng is a die-hard Yao Mi, so Oakley, who plays with a ball while hitting people, doesn't like it at all.

And just now, the tone of Oakley talking to him was not friendly.

Of course Oakley has arrogant capital. Looking at the entire Knicks, except for the star gorilla Ewing, he can basically be regarded as the No. [-] player in the team.

Although on the court, Oakley is mainly a blue-collar insider, but because of his fierce playing style, most young players on the Knicks are quite afraid of him. On the contrary, Ewing is more introverted and gentle, and he is easier to get along with.

In the 90s, the style of the iron-blooded tough guy was the most admired, so Oakley is also one of the favorite players of the head coach Pat Riley.

However, Wang Feng doesn't care about you.

Just your fucking name is Oakley, you're pretty crazy, aren't you?Do you think someone has a good brain... No, you think you are the only boss in the locker room?
Wang Feng has also seen strong winds and waves. During the four years of the Cavaliers, he has always been the boss of the team and the one who spoke in the locker room.

Although his appearance is more handsome, and he is not as fierce as Oakley, his deterrent effect is not bad at all.

In other words, Oakley's deterrent power is more reflected in his appearance and fierce playing style on the court, while Wang Feng is more reflected in his super ability on the court.

You don't have to accept me, it doesn't matter, let's have a touch on the field.

When he first joined the Lakers, in order to establish his prestige, Wang Feng played a one-on-one bullfight with Ingram, who was still a newborn calf and fearless at the time.

Could it be that the scene from that year will be staged again?

Looking at Oakley, Wang Feng's eyes were calm, and his tone was neither humble nor overbearing.

"My name is Wang Feng. I signed a contract with the team two days ago. Now I'm your teammate... at least for the time being."

"Is it our teammate?"

Wang Feng's words stunned all the players who heard it.

Although Wang Feng's physique is in line with NBA playing standards, but his Asian face is really...

"So that's it, the newcomer."

After Oakley was surprised, a smile appeared on his face. "Rookie, it seems that you don't know much about the rules. You didn't take the initiative to say hello to us seniors when you first arrived. I will tell you some rules that rookies should know."

Wang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly. "Rookie? I'm sorry, I'm already 30 years old, not much younger than you, you should call someone else a rookie."

The words with guns and sticks made other people around immediately hear the strong smell of gunpowder.

Of course Oakley heard it too, the smile on his face disappeared immediately, and a fierce light flickered in his eyes.

This guy's reputation as a villain on the court is by no means in vain. Even just looking at his fierce expression, you can feel a pressure, which is completely incomparable to the likes of Green in the future!

"Hehe, I didn't expect it, but it's still a thorn. It's interesting."

Oakley looked at Wang Feng with a sneer, the authority in the team was provoked by a new guy, he couldn't pretend nothing happened.

But just when Oakley opened his mouth to say something, a teammate on the side suddenly said.

"The head coach is here!"

Pat Riley strode into the training hall, followed by several assistant coaches including Jeff Van Gundy.

"Boy, you are lucky."

Seeing this, Oakley did not continue to entangle with Wang Feng. He has a bad reputation, but the head coach Pat Riley is a more ruthless person than him. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a court tyrant.

Even Oakley is reluctant to let Riley die.

"I want to return this sentence to you intact."

Looking at Oakley's back, Wang Feng had already decided in his heart who he would step on to take over.

As a full-level tuba who was parachuted into the 90s, Wang Feng's mentality is completely different from when he first traveled to the Warriors in 14.

Dynasty Terminator!
As the name suggests, he appeared here with the purpose of ending the alliance's dynasty, not to mention Oakley, even if Jordan himself stood in front of him just now, he would directly challenge and beat the opponent without hesitation.

As for the stepping stone mentioned just now... Wang Feng came to this time and space by air, no matter for any team in the league, it was a sudden change.

Just like the current Knicks, which have a complete starting five, Wang Feng must squeeze out one of the five starting positions if he wants to get up as soon as possible and win the starting position.

Oakley is, in Wang Feng's view, the most suitable candidate to step on the top.

Regardless of how well-known this guy is on the court, in the final analysis, he is a blue-collar player. Apart from grabbing rebounds, staring at the opponent's strongest offensive point, and fighting, this guy has no outstanding advantages.

The so-called excellent defense is only because he has good strength, and his movements are relatively dark, and his defensive deterrence at the basket is relatively strong. Oakley's lateral movement speed is very slow, which is slightly faster than those heavy centers. Therefore, the ability to supplement defense and assist defense is not outstanding, and it is easy to be restrained by pick-and-roll and off-ball running.

As for the offensive end, Oakley is seriously lacking in scoring methods, averaging only 9.7 points per game throughout his career.

Before Wang Feng came to the Knicks, he had investigated the team's situation in advance. Oakley has been serving as the starting small forward this season, and at the small forward position, he has done blue-collar work inside.

The 2-meter-08 power forward Charles Smith averaged only 4.3 rebounds per game this season, while Oakley at the small forward position averaged 9 rebounds per game.

In this regard, local fans in New York seem to be quite critical, but the Knicks, or the head coach Pat Riley, seems to think there is nothing wrong with such a lineup.

No... To be precise, even if Riley understands this truth, there is nothing he can do, because the team is indeed short of people at the small forward position.

"Is that one of the reasons why the system parachuted me directly to New York?"

Because after Wang Feng came here, after carefully investigating all 30 teams in the league, he felt that the Knicks were the most suitable for him this year.

Because the overall strength of the Knicks itself is not weak, last season was the finals team, and this season can also enter the second round according to the original historical process.

With the addition of Wang Feng, a big man with a full value of 99, and Ewing, who should have an overall rating of 92 or more in this period, and a vote of go-getters, he is fully capable of defeating O'Neal's Magic in the Eastern Conference and defeating the Magic led by Olajuwon in the finals. The Rockets won the championship trophy.

Of course, since this season itself is not a season for Jordan's Bulls to exert their strength, the ownership of this championship does not affect the judgment of the dynasty terminator.

But in a big team like the New York Knicks and leading the team to win the championship, Wang Feng can directly gain a lot of exposure, thus saving a lot of time to prove his strength.

For Wang Feng, the Knicks are only a temporary place to stay. He does not intend to stay here, because it is a rare opportunity to challenge Jordan. Partner beat Jordan.

He is more inclined to join a team whose overall strength is generally weak and can maximize his strength.

How should I put it... This can be regarded as the pride of Wang Feng, who now has a full score of 99 and is blessed by more than a dozen high-level badges.

In the 94-95 season, Wang Feng's goal was to make a name for himself in this league, so that the whole league and even the whole world would know his name as Wang Feng!
