Chapter 50 The Devil's Away Game
Chapter 50 The Devil's Away Game
In the next two preseason games, one will face the Bulls led by Rose, and the other will face the Kings with a cousin.
The knights lost.
Can we not lose? Although Wu Di played very well, the mentality of Williams and Varejao completely collapsed.
Now all kinds of gossip are flying all over the Internet, coupled with the sudden change of attitudes of Scott and Grant, they can't help but their mentality is not broken.
Especially Varejao, this is his seventh season in the Cavaliers, he originally wanted to rely on the influence of the seven-year boss to make a good effort to squeeze Wu Di away in the preseason.
Unexpectedly, the force was sent out, but he was squeezed away...
It proves that he is not a seven-year boss, but a seven-year itch...
"Damn it, we haven't played a rookie..."
When Williams heard this, his expression was also mournful. He participated in the All-Star Game last year, but this year he was reduced to a bargaining chip...
But after all, he and Varejao were in trouble together, he thought about it and comforted him:
"It's actually not bad that you can go to a metropolis like Los Angeles, which is full of lights and feasting. There are many beauties and fans. Although you are playing as a substitute..."
Varejao was almost comforted by him, but when he heard the last sentence, he broke his head with him...
……
Wu Di was in a particularly comfortable mood. On the first day after the preseason, the deal was announced.
The Clippers traded Baron Davis plus Jordan and a first-round pick for Varejao and Jamario Moon!
In this case, their lineup for the new season is Davis at No. 1, Gibson at No. 2, himself at No. 3, Jamison at No. 4, and Jordan at No. 5.
And there is one of the most valuable chips, which Williams has not spent yet...
This one can be exchanged for Kenyon Martin and JR Smith!
However, Wu Di and Scott still felt that this was their last choice.
It would be best for Williams to trade for a skilled big center or power forward to form a high-low match with Jordan, that would be perfect!
But don't worry now, just like this deal with the Clippers, won't it be a turnaround after waiting, maybe they will have unexpected gains during the season.
In addition to Jordan coming over, the marketing directors of Adidas and Under Armor also found him in the past two days, seeking endorsement matters.
The price offered by Adidas is 4 million US dollars in 1500 years, and the price of Under Armor is 4 million US dollars in 1800 years. The contract value of Under Armor has already doubled compared with Nike's original contract!
However, there is still no movement from Nike. It is estimated that they want to wait to see his performance in the regular season before considering a price increase.
Wu Di is not in a hurry now, since Jamison asked him to practice extra after the game last time, after these two games, he directly earned more than 100 million US dollars.
The speed of making money is much faster than he expected before!
The day after tomorrow is the first game of his career, and tomorrow he will go to Denver with the team to adapt to altitude sickness one day earlier.
Today he invited Arina to play golf at home.
He hasn't used the golf course at home since he moved in, so he has to experience it today.
Arena arrived around nine o'clock in the morning, driving a big silver Mercedes, SL55 AMG.
The SL55 can be called a generation of magic car, with a two-door coupe shape, elegant and charming body lines, and a peculiar "peanut"-shaped headlight. It is said that it has also won the favor of Jobs.
But wait, "peanuts" headlights?
Wu Di thought of Williams nicknamed "Peanut".
"You need a new car!"
Wu Di yelled at Ariana who was backing the car into the garage.
"You obviously need to change cars more than me!"
Ariana looked at the Mazda CX-5 beside her and joked.
When she got out of the car, the first thing she saw was the white mid-length stockings, which extended to the middle of her thighs. The blue lace at the end drew a circle of sexy flesh marks on her thighs, and then a white golf skirt. And a tight white golf suit.
Wu Di's eyes lit up instantly, and Ariana's energetic outfit made him a little swayed.
Still, he pushed Arina back into her seat:
"Go, go buy a car first! I'll buy it for you!"
"I don't need to change..."
"Let's go!"
……
When Wu Di was promoted to a superstar class before, he specially bought a Rolex Daytona for Downey and Alexander as a reward.
After all, their salaries are paid by Gilbert. As the boss, he expresses from time to time that their enthusiasm for work is guaranteed.
But Ariana didn't accept it at the time, so Wu Di took her directly to the Porsche Center this time.
"Any car model here, just pick it."
Wu Di smiled, and he directly mentioned a Cayenne Turbo S in the showroom, with blue exterior and red interior, plus some Bose audio and other optional equipment, the total price is close to 23 US dollars.
Arena chose for a long time, and finally chose a silver 911 GT3, the top model of 911, which costs a little more than 26 US dollars.
They are all Porsches. The price in the United States is much cheaper than in China. The top model is almost catching up with China's entry-level model, that is...
"Are you sure you want to choose manual transmission?"
Wu Di looked at the configuration list in his hand, and couldn't believe his eyes. Buying a Porsche with manual transmission?
"Yes, this is the essence of GT3!"
Ariana laughed and said that she originally wanted to pick up the car after saving enough wages, but Wu Di won it for her in advance.
"Okay, let me feel it when the time comes, and swipe the card!"
Wu Di nodded, just buy a gift, as long as Ariana likes it.
After the whole process, it cost close to 50 US dollars, and in less than half an hour, the Mazda CX-5 shotgun was replaced.
The speed of swiping the card made the Porsche salesgirls look wet, and the look in Ariana's eyes was full of envy and jealousy.
Although it was still 3 months before the car was picked up for GT6, on the way back, Ariana still gave Wu Di a taste of what real speed and passion are.
I have to praise, the position design of the Cayenne gear handle is still very careful, and it will not get stuck on the body at all, which is very reasonable!
Back home, Ariana turned into a coach and carefully taught Wu Di how to play golf.
This thing, he really needs to practice. Next month, they have a game against the Bobcats, and they might be able to use it by then.
I heard that the old rascal likes to gamble with this game very much. When the time comes, he is going to bet on the bullfight with golf. He has no other intentions, just want to see how much the old rascal is worth now.
In the middle of the fight, Wu Di had a whim and asked Ariana if she wanted to be his manager.
After all, having experienced today's speed and passion, the two of them have had a life-long friendship.
Although Ariana has no resources or experience in this area, he now has a deeper understanding of this industry. Compared with brand resources, reliability is the top priority of a broker.
At the beginning, in order to get more opportunities for team trial training, he went to great lengths to contact the legendary agent Schwartz.
But a series of bad things that happened later proved that it is hard to live up to the reputation. Schwartz is just a snob and is not reliable at all.
Seeing Wu Di trusting herself so much, Aruina was very moved, but she didn't agree immediately, but said that she needed to think about it again.
……
The next day, the team's special plane took off again to Denver, the capital of Colorado.
Denver, also known as Mile High City, is located on a plain adjacent to the Rocky Mountains, with beautiful scenery, and is a famous ski resort in the United States.
The Nuggets' away game is listed as the top of the Devil's away game because of Denver's altitude of more than 1600 meters.
In fact, at this altitude, the vast majority of people will not experience altitude sickness, which often occurs when they enter an altitude above 2700 meters.
However, due to the high oxygen consumption per unit and the possibility of back-to-back competitions, athletes are more likely to suffer from physical discomfort in the face of relatively scarce oxygen, so there is the theory of "devil's away game".
In the 09-10 season, the Nuggets had 34 wins and 7 losses at home, with a winning rate of 90%, and 16 wins and 25 losses at home, with a winning rate of 40%.
However, it’s not that there is no way to deal with it. Just like the Cavaliers this time, all the members rushed to adapt a day in advance, and even rented a court to play a half-hour warm-up match.
While making Jordan and Davis familiar with the cooperation, the players' bodies have basically adapted to the altitude of Denver. Most of the disadvantages of the "devil's away game" have been wiped out, and they are waiting for tomorrow's game on October 10!
