The Road to Stardom: Start as a Slam Dunk Master.

Chapter 229 The turbulent American basketball world

39分、18助攻、10篮板、7抢断、5盖帽。

This is the guy who brought a group of immature boys from the international community, in front of Kwame Brown and Chandler, who are almost already the first or second picks in the draft, as well as LeBron, Anthony, Bosh and other five-star high school students in the United States. , the data obtained when every position was almost exploded.

Although it is somewhat regrettable that the final buzzer-beater was not shot by him, this performance shocked the entire American basketball world.

This gorgeous data was immediately placed on the desks of almost all NBA owners, and attached to it was another evaluation report.

——Advantages, he has excellent reaching ability, his huge palm gives him unparalleled ball-holding strength, excellent ball control ability, and also greatly enhances his finishing ability.

When breaking through the defense, his footwork speed is astonishing and his center of gravity is kept extremely low. With the instant explosive power of the first step and his unique rhythm, he has reached the level of an NBA elite guard. Once displayed, it is enough to make the defender freeze in place like an ice sculpture. The ground cannot move!

The most important thing is that when he attacks the basket, his super ability to stay in the air allows him to make more follow-up actions in the air, leaving defenders at a loss. The offensive power of both his left and right hands is astonishing!

From a shooting perspective, his preparatory movements for shooting are extremely elegant. His hands and feet are fully prepared and coordinated, as if he is ready for the shooting moment at any time. When making pull-up jumpers, his jumping height and footwork are even more impressive. It's breathtaking, making him look not like a 17-year-old boy at all, but more like a battle-tested NBA standard pitcher.

From a defensive perspective, he is extremely fast in filling positions, has a strong defensive ability, and a fighting spirit. His ultra-fast reactions and ultra-long wingspan give him top-notch steals, and he can also use his speed to sink in. He can defend big men inside, with high mobility, high reflexes, excellent wingspan, positive defensive attitude and tireless physical strength, giving him the potential to become the top defender!

At the same time, he also has a strong ability to withstand falls. He collided with taller and stronger American players and fell from a height of more than one meter. He was actually unscathed and finished the rest of the fourth quarter. And his opponent was put on a stretcher.

This is a player with great toughness and physical endurance, and the injury risk assessment is at the lowest level. If there are conditions for further bone testing on him, I think his bone density must be very amazing!

——Weaknesses: This is a guy with almost no shortcomings. Some of his physical flaws are limited to his age. His slightly criticized physical strength in the fourth quarter should have been due to his collision with LeBron. It is related to the impact he received at the time, not to mention that considering that he played the entire 40 minutes as the absolute main force on both ends of the offense and defense, 95 of the 82 points scored by the team were related to him, which is enough to prove that he is not There are physical issues.

This is a true genius born for basketball! If there's a downside, it's probably his poor reputation across the country and the backlash from the public.

In order to cover up the loss of the US team, the media attributed Jay and LeBron's injuries to Lin Dong's personal reasons. Although most people in the industry understand this, they can even see LeBron's injury through the details of some live videos. There may be doubts about the injury, but there is now a lot of excitement across the United States, and the public's perception has been set. The trend has been established. Earl Lloyd, a former NBA star who currently lives in Japan, released a piece on Netflix after the game yesterday. The short video pointed this out, questioned LeBron's injury, and demanded that Nike officially disclose a credible injury assessment. However, only half an hour after the video was released, the comment area had been breached by angry American netizens, causing the server to become paralyzed. Netizens blamed He betrayed the great United States, and some people threatened to go to Japan to end him...

So from this point of view, recruiting Lin Dong will undoubtedly be a risky decision. He can bring unparalleled attention to the team, but if the public relations problem is not resolved, it may also make the team the league's best and even the best. The public enemy of fans across America.

Template for the future: Michael Jordan! 2001, April 4.

There are no shortcomings... This is of course because all scouting reports only come from the intuitive feeling of one game, rather than careful observation through the long-term public trial training process, but as an Asian, To receive such a 'flawless' evaluation in the eyes of these extremely picky scouts still makes the owners of all NBA teams feel itchy.

You know, dare to let scouts write that there are no flaws in the scouting report and fill in Jordan's name in the future template. This is really the first time in NBA history since the basketball god became famous.

Not to mention that Stevenson, everyone knows that his draft template last year was set to be Jordan, just because the editor-in-chief of the draft website is his uncle, does a guy with the 23rd pick deserve it?

But this Lin Dongpei.

All NBA owners know very well how difficult it is for an Asian to get this evaluation from their own scouts!

However, the shortcoming that should have been the least of the shortcomings has really stumped the owners of each team.

If it's another problem, even if it's this guy XD or QJ, the team has 10,000 public relations methods to help him solve it easily.

But only this kind of trouble involving the issue of football products, coupled with his identity as a yellow-skinned Asian, makes public relations very difficult. If he is not careful, let alone helping Lin Dong clear his name, he may even be involved in his own business. The team also needs to be involved.

Unless you have proof, clear proof.

For example, if LeBron pretends to be injured, he has to find someone with enough influence in the current sports world to endorse him at the risk of damaging his reputation. Only then can he possibly turn around half of the situation and come back.

The latter is easier, as long as the star player of each team is enough, and the boss can always talk in person, but the question is, where can you find proof of LeBron's fake injury?

These NBA bosses are very well-informed. Nike had already signed an intention contract with LeBron before the game, which means that as long as he participates in the draft next year and becomes the No. 7 pick in the draft, he will get a contract. The astronomical endorsement contract of 9000 years and million US dollars is one of the main reasons why many media are promoting LeBron before the game and building momentum for him.

This guy is a new star that Nike plans to build, and he lives in Nike’s private hospital. The only reason why Nike is not helping to light a fire behind the scenes is that they think there is still a possibility of cooperation with Lin Dong in the future, but Le After all, Brown is a target they have already inspected, and they have already invested a lot of energy in him in the early stage, so it is impossible to just let him go.

Therefore, even if Nike wants to sign Lin Dong, the best way to get the best of both worlds is to let LeBron take the initiative to settle the differences with Lin Dong and become a pair of good brothers to quell the scolding war among fans.

But asking Nike to give you proof that LeBron faked his injury is impossible.

The most fascinating thing in the world is undoubtedly two words: want!

But the most painful thing in the world is three words: sorry!

The bosses were a little itchy for a while, but they had to endure it.

If there is no evidence, then given the one-sided comments across the United States today, it is best not to act rashly.

All we can do is wait and see!

…………

The videotape was replaying the game in slow motion.

This is not the kind of picture taken by the local media in Seattle, but some hidden cameras installed inside the Sonics Arena. It can capture all the details on the field from all directions and angles, far from the casual wide-angle lens of the TV station. comparable.

Of course, there is only one person in the United States who can own this tape, and that is Schultz, the owner of the Sonics.

The videotape has obviously been edited, and the shots taken by multiple cameras have been edited together, pieced together and analyzed into some complete multi-angle pictures. That was the shot of LeBron and Lin Dong colliding together.

Through the footage spliced ​​from eight cameras, it can be vaguely seen that LeBron had already raised his elbows and raised his knees before the impact.

At the same time, when Lin Dong lost his balance and fell from mid-air, the scene where his knees hit the ground was also clearly captured by the camera.

This shot made Payton in front of the video recorder feel goosebumps all over his body.

When I was in the gym in the afternoon, I saw Lin Dong standing up quickly after falling. I instinctively thought that Lin Dong should have been well cushioned when he landed, so he was not injured. But he didn't expect that he fell from one meter. When it fell from such a height in the air, the weakest knee joint fell straight to the floor.

Payton felt that even if he replaced his younger self this time, he would probably be reimbursed for at least a year, but Lin Dong could still insist on playing the entire game...

Schultz next to him had roughly the same idea. While marveling at Lin Dong's iron legs, what he thought of was not Lin Dong's will. What he thought of was value!

What are NBA owners most afraid of? The biggest fear is that after spending a lot of money to finally get a superstar or a good seedling, it turns out that it is injured or disabled as soon as it is cultivated. Isn’t that a waste of effort? But look at Lin Dong’s legs, they look as if they were made of iron.

What's this? This is the guarantee of winning the championship. This is the greatest value of a star, endurance!

Schulz simply fell in love with it more and more. He now thinks that Lin Dong's leg alone is worth 100 million!

"Wait, this is it, slow down twice."

While Schultz was rapidly calculating the value in his mind, Payton next to him had already shouted.

The person next to him quickly slowed down the video tape.

Payton pointed at LeBron in the corner of the screen and smiled dumbly at Schulz: "This shot has the clearest shot. I found it. Look at this guy's knees!"

I can see that LeBron in the camera has not hugged his injured knee at this time. His knee looks white and clean, not at all like the red look afterward. You can even see LeBron using the corner of his eye at this time. I looked at Lin Dong out of the corner of my eye.

When the camera slowed down, Lin Dongdu was already curling up holding his knees in pain. Only then did LeBron finally react, reaching out and hugging his knees, showing a painful look.

As the camera continued to pull back, the team doctor came on stage to check. After reaching out and pressing left and right on LeBron's knee a few times, the unnatural expression on his face at that moment was clearly captured by the camera...

Schulz's brows widened completely.

"Cut this video again and get some close-ups," Schulz ordered.

"Are you going to release it now?" Payton asked excitedly. He couldn't wait to see the reaction on the Internet.

"Stupid." Schulz glanced at him. This guy was OK at playing basketball, but he was far behind in doing business and packaging. "Public relations is a very delicate matter. It requires timing. The Internet is Things are not reality, and it is easy to follow the crowd. Now the heated discussion has just begun, and the public is still in the process of irrational venting. It will be useless even if this video is released now."

"Waiting for them to vent for two days and letting their emotions cool down a little before releasing this thing will have a magical effect. Also..." He looked at Payton and said with a smile: "Every team is waiting to see if this evidence is released. It’s too early, they will follow the trend and be good people, it’s better to wait a little longer. Those guys are just outsiders. Seeing the one-sided voice on the Internet, in order to win the favor of the fans, they will also stand up and say something. Wait until then. Lin Dong's reappearance not only gives Lin Dong a life-saving help, but also leaves him with fewer competitors. Those teams that have cheated Lin Dong may not necessarily choose Lin Dong even if they get the No. 1 pick next year. After all, they are afraid that he will hold a grudge and not sign the contract. Well...hahaha!"

Payton touched his chin upon hearing this and nodded thoughtfully.

MD, a coffee seller is so thoughtful...

"After this matter is over, we will formally discuss joining Lin Dong. If he intends to draft next year, then we will fail this season." Schultz smiled and patted Payton on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Summer When trading in the market, I will slim down the team and give you what is yours. Work hard. As long as we capture this kid, we will have everything!"

Even Payton's brows relaxed now.

I finally figured it out. It turns out that this guy didn't understand, but he was reluctant to let go before. He probably also considered the relationship between himself and Lin Dong... Hahaha, if I had said this earlier, wouldn't I have ruined it a long time ago? !

"OK!"

　I saw many brothers saying they were unhappy with the ending of yesterday’s Nike summit.

　　It can be seen that the readers here are really very supportive. The author is really not willing to give up on anyone, so I still make a statement.

　　There are several reasons why I write this.

　　First of all, it was to push Sakuragi, and the last ball was given to him to shoot. It also meant to pay tribute to the slam dunk master, as a continuation of the shot after the end of the slam dunk chapter.

　　Secondly, don’t you think the strength gap between this American team and the international team is already huge? If the protagonist leads the team to win, I think it’s already very awesome. It doesn’t have to be 50 points and it should be written as a torture. Although we are an invincible novel, it won’t be such an exaggeration. I think As long as the protagonist doesn't lose, that's fine.

　　Then there are the two most important points. This entire article is actually about the fate of LeBron and the protagonist. Now that LeBron has gone down, it would be too watery to continue to write about the last few minutes and ten rounds one ball at a time. Sorry, I really don’t want to add water to the book.

　　Another point is that after the Nike Summit is the World Championships, they will play against the American team. The opponent has learned their lesson and targeted Lin Dong. I will detail how to defeat the opponent in that game. I think the effect will be more good.

　　It is a pity that the plot did not satisfy all the readers who followed it.

　　I always feel that the brothers who spend money to read my books are all my benefactors. I don’t brag about it. I am really grateful to you, so I want to do my best, so I explain it here. There is no influence or influence. If there is any kind of flattery, similar plots in the future will be avoided by considering the reasons for everyone's dissatisfaction this time.
