From South China Tiger to NBA King

Chapter 47 After the training camp

After coming out of the Chicago training camp, Schwartz always had a smug smile on his face, and he couldn't stop.

"It's unbelievable, Jiang, you really did it!!"

Until sitting in the car, Schwartz still couldn't believe that Jianghu actually defeated Jimmy Butler in a heads-up.

That's Jimmy Butler, who averaged 24 points per game last season and ranks among the top five small forwards in the league.

In addition to James and Durant and Leonard, is there a better small forward in this league than him?
Paul George, I'm afraid not.

Jiang Hu looked out of the car window and shook his head slightly: "To be honest, I was able to beat Jimmy because of a certain amount of luck."

"I may not be able to do it again!!"

For Butler, Jianghu felt a little sorry.

It is really helpless to let the other party become a stepping stone to one's own fame.

Among the people present, only he is the most famous, and only by defeating him can people see their own strength clearly.

"Forget it, if there is a chance in the future, take him to the country to show his face, give him a good endorsement or something..." Jiang Hu thought with shame.

"Anyway, you did it in terms of results only!!" Schwartz said excitedly looking at Jianghu.

"Yes!!"

Jianghu smiled, turned his head and patted Schwartz on the shoulder heavily.

"So Mr. Manager, my task has been completed, and the next part will be handed over to you."

"Do you have confidence!!"

"Don't worry, Jiang, if I wasn't sure before the training camp, now I'm [-]% sure about it."

Jianghu looked at Schwartz in surprise.

This is the first time he has received a positive response from him.

"Very good, but [-]% is not enough, I want [-]%."

"Next is your performance time, I have more important things to do."

"What's the matter?" Schwartz asked suspiciously.

Training camp is over, what else is there to do?

"train."

"Find me the best trainer and nutritionist, who is good at adjusting the physical condition of the players." Jianghu looked into Schwartz's eyes and said.

"The next time, training, gaining weight, with the best posture, welcome my rookie season!!"

Schwartz looked at Jianghu, who had just finished training camp and couldn't wait to start training again, and felt extremely relieved.

Such an outstanding talent, coupled with such a serious attitude, as long as there are no major accidents, his career is worth 20 billion US dollars, which is definitely not an exaggeration! !

Thinking of this, his gaze towards the rivers and lakes became even hotter...

That greedy and enthusiastic gaze is like looking at a glowing cash cow, or seeing a cash truck...

The car returned to the hotel in Chicago.

Jianghu went to rest in his room, and Schwartz couldn't wait to pick up his mobile phone.

Open the address book and dial the number.

"Beep~beep~" A blind voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hi, hello, my big manager, Mr. Jeff." The rough voice came from the phone, full of joy...

"Jerry, you should know why you are looking for you."

"How much, you report the number yourself!!"

Facing this kind of greeting from little Karami, Schwartz was too lazy to answer, and stated his purpose straightforwardly.

"What money, what are you talking about, I don't understand, my big manager!!" Jerry said pretending to be surprised.

"Okay, I don't have time to waste time with you, the video from the training camp, let's make a price, I know you must have it in your hand!!"

Schwartz didn't bother to circle him in circles, pointing straight to the ultimate goal.

"Well, you still understand me!!" Jerry shook his head with a sigh.

"5 US dollars, no bargaining!!"

Jerry, who was unmasked, didn't bother to make a detour...

"Deal, send me your bank card number!!"

After hanging up, Schwartz continued to make other calls.

"Hi, hello, is this Mr. Hayward, the editor-in-chief of "Basketball Times"? I'm Jeff Schwartz..."

........................

On the second day of the Chicago joint trial, Jiang Hu did not go to the training camp, but started his own personal training.

When he was training silently, major sports media in the United States released various news related to him.

The well-known sports media "Bleacher Report" released a piece of news: "Super physical fitness, the Chinese teenager has become a dark horse in Chicago's joint trial training"

"In the Chicago joint trial training held yesterday, Jianghu, a young player from China, performed very well. He achieved good results in the physical test. He ranked second in the static test and ranked first in the dynamic comprehensive physical fitness."

"In the 1-minute catch-and-shoot test, he made 20 of 18 shots, ranking first in the game. In the subsequent three-point test, he made a terrifying 25 shots again. The record is astounding."

"In addition, in the heads-up session, he played against another lottery favorite, Jayson Tatum, and easily defeated his opponent 4-7 with 0 goals in straight sets."

"Jianghu from South China Tigers in Guangdong, China, is a very top scorer. He once led the 45-0 Guangdong team to win four games in a row with an average of 3 points per game in the CBA. His offensive coverage is extensive, from free throws From the line to the mid-range and then to the three-point line, they are all offensive areas he is good at."

"What surprised us the most was his physical fitness. He is 206cm tall, with a wingspan of 221cm, and his extremely fast movement speed allows him to run around the court like LeBron. His excellent three-point shooting ability and Can make him an excellent spacer, and his offensive ability is enough to take any team's offense to the next level!!"

"After deliberation by the expert group of this newspaper, the template of Jianghu is tentatively set as: Tracy McGrady."

"Projected pick, the second pick was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers."

ESPN: "Chinese rookies are outstanding, or they may be selected by the Lakers"

"Jianghu, a young player from Guangdong, China."

"He is the youngest player in this draft. He is only 18 years old and 280 days old. He has already played in the Chinese professional league at the age of 17."

"He sat on the bench for a long time at the beginning of his career and did not get too much playing time, but after the team's main player was injured, he quickly stepped up from the bench and led the ball with an average of 45 points per game. The team made a desperate comeback and created the first team in sports history to come back from a 0-3 deficit."

"In the Chicago joint trial training, the Chinese young people once again made us shine, with excellent running and jumping, excellent shooting ability, which is completely contrary to our stereotype of poor physical fitness of Asian players. His physical fitness was placed in the past draft Enough to be the No. [-] pick, but with fellow draft pick Mark Fultz, it's hard for him to get his hands on the No. [-] pick."

"The template given by this station is—Paul George, who is predicted to be the second pick and will be selected by the Los Angeles Lakers."

TNT "The Chinese teenager's training camp challenged the audience, is he the right candidate for the top pick?"

CBS "Draft situation changes again, China Jiang may become the biggest X factor"

Under the efforts of Schwartz, Jianghu's name appeared frequently in the major media news, and people gradually realized that there was actually a player from China in this draft with outstanding strength.
