Basketball: The Chosen Victim

Chapter 110 Chapter [-] What grade is it, it's the same as what I use

"LeBron, because your score in this game is lower than Wu Di's, Barkley is going to lick O'Neal's forehead now, did you do it on purpose?"

At the Heat's post-match press conference, following a reporter's question, there was a burst of laughter at the scene.

"Hehe, thank you for your question. I didn't know in advance... This is a bet between Barkley and Kenny Smith, right? If my score is higher than Wu Di, what will Kenny Smith do?"

Lao Zhan touched his nose and smiled.

"Kenny Smith will kiss Barkley's pigskin!"

There was another burst of laughter at the scene, Lao Zhan shook his head and said with a smile:

"These two are great players! I am very much looking forward to TNT's next program after being told like this!"

There was another burst of laughter at the scene. Lao Zhan has worked hard on how to deal with the media. He has successfully resolved the original proposition to send here, but he still thinks it is not enough. He said earnestly:
"Wu Di played very well today. In fact, my 46 points are just to pay tribute to him!"

There was an exclamation at the scene, yes, No. 46 is Wu Di's number, it turns out that Lao Zhan had already planned it!

The female reporter Clifton, who originally admired the spirit of the old James, had little stars in her eyes...

What is the atmosphere, what is the mind?

This is the real emperor, James!

She asked tremblingly:

"LeBron, why do you pay tribute to Wu Di?"

Lao Zhan looked in the direction of Cleveland in the distance:
"It's a legacy! We're both from Ohio State, and we're both nicknamed Emperors. It's amazing what he did as a rookie. Even though I scored four more points than him in the same amount of playing time, my 4 I have 12 more rebounds than him, I have 5 more 10 assists than him, and other statistics are even more crushing..."

Clifton had listened to Shi, but she was about to continue asking questions when she was interrupted by another reporter:
"LeBron, although you are better-looking than Wu Di in terms of statistics, how do you explain that the Heat were overtaken by the Cavaliers in the middle?"

Clifton wanted to curse, what the hell, didn't the Heat win by 17 points in the end!

In the game, the score alternates in the middle, what a normal thing!
It seems to be because of Zhan Huang's fault. He has already scored 46 points in three quarters. What else do you want him to do?

Damn, she's so cold in her crotch now, it's such a disappointment!

"You are from the media in Ohio, but this is a very good question..."

Lao Zhan scratched his eyebrows as he spoke, and continued:
"Let me recall, when Wu Di capped off Dwyane's Mi Zongbu to get an accidental possession of the ball, and then made a three-pointer!"

"It's really amazing, even I regret that it was not a lore goal... Hehe, the game is full of too many uncertain factors, but this is the charm of the game, isn't it? This is a team game, full of various influences Factors, team morale, individual performance, targeted tactics, etc., until the moment the game ends, no one knows the final result of today..."

"And you never know who's going to make a difference in the end game, like my dude Antawn Jamison played really well today, got close to 30 points in three quarters, oh yeah man, if you're watching For the press conference, I wish you a speedy recovery! The NBA can’t live without you! The Cavaliers can’t live without you!”

There was a burst of applause at the scene. If you don't accept it, you can't accept it. Lao Zhan's answer is so refreshing that people can't help but want to agree.

And others have already attacked Lao Zhan, but Lao Zhan can still praise Wu Di for his shining points, and he can also send sincere blessings to his former teammates...

This is the bearing of a king...

It is the Cavaliers locker room on the side. Wu Di and Jordan are being questioned by the local media in Miami:

"Didn't you say before that you can get revenge on the Heat? Now that you have lost by 17 points, who do you think is responsible for the loss in this game?"

Little Jordan was about to speak, but Wu Di suppressed him, and said directly:

"Do you want me, a rookie, to teach you that the winner is the one who has the last laugh? Losing now can only show that we still have room for improvement, and we still have a lot of potential to be tapped!"

The reporter was noncommittal to this answer, but shut up in moderation, but another reporter who seemed to be the leader quickly said aggressively:
"Wu Di, since you said that you are a rookie, I would like to ask you to answer. In many rounds of today's game, the opponent double-teamed you and you didn't pass the ball. Now many people outside are questioning your scoring. Is this against you? What about the lack of necessary game experience?"

Wu Di has finally realized Westbrook's helplessness. These reporters can't do anything else, they are really professional in digging holes!
If he answered this question honestly, saying that the current lineup of the Cavaliers requires him to execute a large number of offenses, then the opponent will have a lot to play in the future. It can be said that Wu Di blamed the team, or that Wu Di has never tried. Passing the ball more, not trusting teammates, etc...

Anyway, these questions are impossible to disappear before he wins the championship. He answered casually:

"Speaking of experience, we have accumulated a lot of valuable experience today. These experiences have benefited me a lot. I believe that with the help of these experiences, we will achieve better results. So, the next question!"

But the reporter was obviously not satisfied with his answer, and he continued to ask:

"Wu Di, just now LeBron James said that he scored 46 points to pay tribute to you. How did you respond in the arena?"

Wu Di was speechless, what? !

Lao Zhan even said that 46 points are a tribute to him?

After he mentioned West, Lao Zhan even said that his score was a tribute to him?

How can you talk nonsense!
In terms of face, Wu Di still has to learn from Lao Zhan...

"You didn't respond, right? MVP-level players took the initiative to pay tribute to you, but you, a rookie player, didn't show any sign of it. I have to say that you are too arrogant. Could it be that you just..."

Seeing that Wu Di didn't respond, the reporter became more and more excited as he talked, and even began to reprimand him directly.

Little Jordan couldn't see it, and wanted to help the boss refute it, but was stopped by Wu Di again. The questions from these reporters were just like the little tricks and trash talk he encountered on the court before. He had to rely on himself to break through:
“嘿，你知道48分加6篮板加5助攻加3盖帽加3失误加4犯规等于多少吗？”

The reporter was stunned. As a native American who was educated and happy, although this kind of mental calculation is very simple and can be done by Chinese primary school students, it still stumped him!
But what does Wu Di mean by this? Is there any way in this data?

Wu Di paused for a while, and found that no one could answer, he cleared his throat and said loudly:

"Equals 69! Exactly three times 23! I paid LeBron three times as much respect, and you, Mr. Ben White of the Miami Herald, not only completely ignored my kindness, but also accused me here Arrogant, may I ask, who is not counting?"

Ben White instantly blushed and lowered his head. He never expected that Wu Di actually paid tribute to LeBron!

But... plus turnovers and fouls?

Why does it sound weird?

But after this incident, no reporter dared to find faults casually. Soon, the post-match locker room session ended, and Wu Di was finally clean.

"Little Qiao, I finally made some appearance today!"

Wu Di patted Jordan on the shoulder hard and said with a smile, Jordan played tough today, especially defending against James in the second quarter, he really looked like a superstar!

Little Jordan touched his head and smiled charmingly:

"Hey, boss, you set an example, little brother, I should have exploded a long time ago!"

"Haha, it's good that you know! Load management tonight, no more training, and let the physiotherapist in the team relax for you later!"

"Wow that's great haha!"

Little Qiaodan immediately relaxed when he heard the words, and the emperor laughed.jpg.

However, Wu Di scolded upon seeing this:
"Dead snake and rotten eel (meaning slacker), you are serious! The practice time is doubled today! After two days of magic, I can't help you anymore!"

Little Jordan's face was broken, but he succumbed to Wu Di's coercion, so he had to follow him back to the court to continue practicing.

So, while brushing money, no, extra training, Wu Di obviously found that Jordan's defense seemed to be enlightened.

Especially in the selection of defensive positions and defensive actions, he has made great progress.

But what made Wu Di depressed was that according to the system's judgment, he was still a starter at [-] knives per goal, so after two hours, he only spent about [-] knives.

After all, not everyone is as talented as him. Even for a player like Jordan who was later selected to the first team, progress does not happen overnight.

Thinking of this, Wu Di was also sweating for Beverly. When Beverly came to try out last time, he was only in the rotation level.

It's now Dec. 12, less than three months away from the trade deadline.

If Beverley can't improve to the level of the main rotation during this time, he will not let Beverley join the team.

There is still a long way to go for the team to strengthen, but Wu Di's krypton gold road is getting smoother and smoother!
Halfway through the extra practice, Arina called:

"Honey, it's basically settled! The boss of Under Armour's private jet will pick you up tomorrow, and we can sign the contract for the development conference the day after tomorrow!"

Wu Di shook his fist, finally!

A $1000 million signing bonus plus a $1500 million annual endorsement fee...

Even if Ariana's share is removed, he can exchange for 21 talent points at once!
When these 21 talent points are all added to the static talent, he will not be weaker than Lao Zhan in terms of height and wingspan, and he will even be half a level stronger than Lao Zhan!
At that time, in conjunction with the enhancement of his explosive power and other aspects, no matter how high the defensive awareness of Lao Zhan is, it is impossible to restrict him from receiving the ball like today!
Wu Di has never looked forward to his birthday like now!

"Baby, you've worked hard these days, what reward do you want?"

Wu Di asked, in addition to signing bonuses and endorsement fees, Ariana also negotiated quite generous honor bonuses and endorsement rights.

The sum of these bonuses and rights is even higher than the endorsement fee. Aruina really made a great contribution this time!

"Haha, you are the biggest reward, and you bought me a 911 GT3 before, and you will be able to pick up the car soon..."

Ariana said some witty words, but she didn't mention rewards. She is a career-oriented woman. For her, being able to negotiate such a contract is more exciting than any material reward.

Wu Di didn't force it either:

"Okay, then we'll see you tomorrow, let the private jet come directly to Miami to pick me up!"

A few moments later, Lena Anderson, his flight attendant lover in Miami, also called:

"Haney, why haven't you come out yet?"

"It's here!"

Wu Di picked up his bag and was about to slip away first, but before slipping away, he drew a cake for Little Jordan:

"Little Qiao, you called me boss on the first day you came to the team. As the boss, I will definitely not treat you badly. In fact, I bring you to practice these days to prepare to help you win a big contract from the team, at least 500 million. The kind that is more than a US knife!"

When little Jordan heard the words, his heart and chrysanthemums burst into full bloom in an instant!

Look, this is the boss!

No, this is the godfather!

His current salary is less than $80. If Wu Di can help him win a big contract of $500 million, his salary will increase by more than five times!
This cake is better than playing World of Warcraft two days later!
Needless to say, Wu Diduo, he picked up two basketballs and continued training.

Wu Di nodded in satisfaction when he saw it, and he actually said it was less than 500 million.

If Jordan can reach a superstar in the middle of the season, in view of the current scarcity of centers in the league, a big contract of 1000 million dollars is guaranteed!

But it's good to leave some margin. After all, he is a reborn person and knows how to manage expectations.

Walking out of the American Airlines Center, Wu Di just got into Lena's Mustang sports car, and was immediately attracted by her slender and straight legs.

It was already the twelfth lunar month in Cleveland at this time, but Miami was still in vests and hot pants, which made people imagine.

Lina is more than 1 meters tall, and her legs are more than 8 meter long. It is a pity not to use these legs for three rounds, but it is definitely not a waste to use them to step on and shift gears.

"The Lun family waited so hard for you!"

Lina brushed up her golden hair and offered Xiangbo. She had indeed waited for a long time, and the red nail polish on her index finger and middle finger were worn off.

Wu Di's big hand is obviously not enough for today's training. Now that the opportunity comes, he decisively performs a fancy dribble, regardless of Lina's obstruction, and breaks into the penalty area to score.

Only this time there was no annoying whistle.

The sound of breathing gradually became heavier, and the two of them had a farewell to their newlyweds, and it felt more turbulent than the tide...

Wu Di felt the hot feeling in his hand, and secretly observed the surrounding environment.

It is already 11 o'clock in the middle of the night, and the huge parking lot of the American Airlines Center Arena is empty, not to mention people, there are not even a few cars...

"It's better than..."

……

The next day, Wu Di woke up in great spirits and looked at Lena who was still sleeping soundly on the bed.

"You are so bad!"

Lina was eating breakfast, and she was so angry that she was forced to open, and she looked very cute.

"Haha, I'll take you shopping in the morning, what do you want to buy?"

Wu Di smiled and said that the plane would not be able to pick him up until afternoon, and he was going to buy some Christmas presents for Lina in advance.

"Okay... I want to buy another watch, can I? You know, a watch is never too much for a stewardess..."

While eating the bread, Lina murmured that before Wu Di left last time, he gave her a Cartier gemstone watch.

"Of course... OJBK!"

……

Although Miami is only the second largest city in Florida, it is known as the "Capital of South America" ​​and "Gateway to the Americas".

This is a paradise for rich people in South America, especially the commodity tax here is much lower than that of other big cities in the United States. Many upstarts in South America like to come here for vacation shopping.

So there are many high-end large shopping malls here, and the two of them drove to the Merrick Park shopping mall after a short drive.

This is the most high-end commercial center in Miami. It only operates high-end luxury brand stores. It pays more attention to protecting customer privacy, and the store has very little customer flow, which is just good for them to shop.

Yesterday's game and extra practice, Wu Di made a total of 140 million US dollars, Christmas is coming soon, this time it happens to be used to buy Christmas gifts.

One for Ariana, one for Lena, one for Celine, one for Mengchao, four for Four Golden Flowers, one for Megan, one for Amanda, plus one for my mother...

There are eleven gifts in total, time is tight and the task is heavy. If you see the same ones, you just swipe your card, and all the shop assistants can't stand up straight.

But after all, it’s not about buying a car. It took a long time to spend more than $40. This efficiency is about the same as playing with Jordan.

The main reason is that it is only 2010, and Rolex’s relatively high-end Lu Jindi is only less than 4 US dollars, and there is no limit, let alone a price increase...

"Made, I'm a little uncomfortable spending the money today!"

Wu Di thought for a while, and walked into a Vacheron Constantin store again, well, it's time to reward myself!
After all, Vacheron Constantin is one of the three top watch brands, one level higher than Rolex.

Soon, he fell in love with a perpetual calendar with a gold belt and a blue disk. When he asked about the price, it was only $9...

And, to make matters worse, old friend James Jones is there!

"What a coincidence, I want to buy this too..."

Jones smiled and nodded to him as a greeting.

Wu Di's eyelids twitched, but he also nodded with a smile. Everyone is a decent person, and it's not worth tearing their faces for such a trivial matter.

But the same style as Jones Day?

He suddenly hesitated a little.

"Hi... Beth!"

Lena greeted the black girl next to Jones. Beth was her colleague at American Airlines.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

Beth was a little surprised. In her eyes, Lena was a small and transparent existence. She didn't expect to come to such a high-end shopping mall.

"I'm watching my watch with my boyfriend..."

Lena said submissively that Beth was one level higher than her at work, serving as the foreman second only to the purser.

"Oh!"

Beth squinted at Wu Di. She was somewhat blind to Asians, so she didn't know Wu Di's identity. She just thought he was so young and handsome...

Her small mouth curled up, and the woman's jealousy couldn't be suppressed as soon as it came up. She looked at the big bags and small bags in Lina's hands, and she had already given Wu Dian a Huaxia in her heart who only knew about her parents' hard-earned money. International student status...

And her boyfriend is an NBA star who makes money by his own ability!
Thinking of this, she whispered to Jones:
"What grade, it's the same as what you use..."

Jones smiled and did not refute.

Although Wu Di's salary is higher than his, he knows that the rookies who just entered the league spend like water, and they often can't save much money in the first season. Like the famous No. 0 agent Gilbert Arenas, the first During the season, he owed hundreds of thousands of dollars to the bank!

As an old man in the league, he has seen too many such things, and Wu Di is even crazier than Arenas.

Because Wu Di bought a McLaren-Benz SLR with a few million dollars at a sky-high price some time ago!

This Chinese rookie must have been used to being poor before, and he has no concept of saving at all. When he pays later, he may have to use several credit cards to make up the amount!
Otherwise, why did you suddenly hesitate in front of the counter?

But Wu Di quit. He pointed to the watch in the center of the showcase behind the clerk:
"I was going to give this watch to my trainer just now, and you wrap that watch for me too!"

The clerk was a little surprised and said:
"Sir, are you sure, this piece is an ultra-thin limited-edition engraved perpetual calendar tourbillon, which costs 35 US dollars..."

Beth was stunned for a moment. Jones' annual salary was only a little over $100 million. After deducting the expenses, it would be a bit difficult to buy a watch worth $9. This young man just changed a watch that was several times the price?

Wu Di raised the credit card in his hand, and glanced at Jones with a livid face beside him:

"Yeah, what grade, it's the same as the one I use!"
