NBA: Yao Ming at his peak returns to his rookie season

Jordan is feeling very bad lately.

It's especially uncomfortable.

Latino girls can't make old scoundrels happy.

The reason is that the more popular this All-Star game is, the more face he will lose. Besides, Jordan knows about his family's affairs.

His knees, which had been with him for many years, started acting up from the beginning of the season.

After each intense game, Jordan often needed ice buckets and anti-inflammatory injections to continue playing.

Michael Jordan's Wizards suffered their sixth consecutive loss.

Of course, the number of games lost is not the point.

The key point is that Jordan is not the same player he used to be. If he could still play shooting guard, he wouldn't have forced himself into the frontcourt combination.

He's definitely good at playing basketball, but when it comes to dealing with players like Kobe, Duncan, and Garnett...

That's too much to ask of him.

In the lead-up to the All-Star Game, the old rogue appeared to be eating and playing as usual, but he hadn't touched a new young girl or stayed up all night for a month.

He was secretly working hard to prepare to shock everyone one last time!

but!

This media review was not favorable to the old rogue.

"The Last Dance of the Basketball God!"

"Vince Carter gives up his starting position!"

"Jordan suffers his sixth consecutive loss!"

"Jordan went more than five games without scoring 20+ points!"

Is this even human language?

He, Michael Jordan, a 40-year-old veteran, how can he still score 20+ points a game in this day and age?!

It's no wonder the media didn't have a high opinion of Jordan.

In the Eastern Conference, after the final round, the rosters, besides Iverson, Carter, McGrady, and Jordan, only Jermaine O'Neal, Ben Wallace, and Kidd were worth watching.

Carter became the mascot.

I definitely won't fight.

In other words, Jordan's team only had Jermaine O'Neal and Ben Wallace in the paint.

What is the relationship between the two people like?

It's the kind of relationship where you want to kill the other person, tear them to pieces, and then have a serious affair with their female relatives.

And look at the West... Shaquille O'Neal, Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, Yao Ming, Steve Francis, Stephon Marbury!

Hit me with your head?

The opponent's penalty area was not only packed full, but it was also insanely bad!

Just when Jordan was in a state of panic, he suddenly received a phone call.

The call came from Houston...

The All-Star Weekend has arrived, and the Rockets have been incredibly strong this season, with two key players making it to the All-Star Game. They are the only team in the Western Conference, besides the Lakers, to have two players selected.

Of course, their combat capabilities were appalling.

The Rockets are now notorious for relying on Yao Ming and Steve Francis; without them, they're not even a second-rate team.

Yao Ming is currently the strongest player from the 02 draft class.

Compared to the others, he was exceptionally strong, and surprisingly, Stoudemire was right behind him.

Stoudemire is a high school rookie.

With Jay Williams in the 02 draft class, it was surprising that Yao Ming and Amar'e Stoudemire suddenly emerged, and that Williams almost didn't even make it into the Rising Stars Challenge.

The stats are terrible, averaging only 10 points per game.

It's a complete disservice to his status as the runner-up.

When Yao Ming stepped off the plane.

The system's ancient scroll slowly unfolds.

This thing is single-core, random, and appears quite suddenly. Yao Ming almost stepped on it, but luckily he had practiced it and didn't embarrass himself in front of the fans.

【Grandpa Knight, it's time for the lavish round table meeting】

[Task 1: Even if I'm left out, I'll still be a starter, and during the All-Star Game, I'll achieve more dazzling stats and popularity than that clumsy shark.]

[Reward: Strength Points +0.5]

[Task 2: Rookie Shines, Win Rookie Game MVP with Dominant Stats]

[Reward: +0.3 random attribute point]

[Task 3: Win the All-Star Game MVP!]

[Reward: Random Gold Badge]

Although the system's rewards are very tempting, it's clearly a trap. This year's All-Star Game even had a trophy made specifically for Jordan.

In his past life, Garnett secretly developed his skills and stole the All-Star trophy.

If he hadn't won the MVP award, even the Timberwolves fans wouldn't have been able to protect him.

Now, Yao Ming, a rookie, is being asked to win the All-Star trophy in what was almost the strongest All-Star game in history?

You can try it.

However, Yao Ming is still prepared to accept the remaining two waves of attribute points.

All-Star Weekend, strictly speaking, is a four-day event from the 7th to the 10th. It is the biggest show of the year in the NBA. There is a fundamental difference between a player joining the All-Star game and not joining it, as well as the difference in salary and status!

It's like the eagle's weekend.

All-Star players are like the heads of the household busy at the barbecue grill, while the players who didn't make the All-Star team are like the kids at the children's table.

This weekend is a rare holiday for ordinary players.

Once the break is over, you can go back to being a workhorse.

For star players, it's considered voluntary overtime.

Besides playing matches, there are also commercial and charity events to attend to. Starting from the 7th, this kind of stress-inducing schedule will continue until the 10th.

Yao Ming played almost non-stop in the All-Star Game in his past life.

His All-Star game stats weren't great. One reason was his personality—not outgoing and lacking in theatricality—and another was that Yao Ming simply didn't have the energy to pull off any more fancy tricks in the game.

The main tournament is usually never finished.

After the plane landed, they simply sent their luggage to the hotel, and then a series of meetings were scheduled for Yao.

I absolutely have to meet with the reporter from the Chinese server.

Adidas's business arrangements are something they simply cannot avoid.

Yao Ming advised Bill Duffy to decline as many business cocktail parties as possible.

Even disregarding the All-Star Game itself, Yao Ming still managed to get Bill Duffy to cut some of his workload, and he remained incredibly busy.

So the weekend? Weekend my ass!

Bill Duffy's entourage took Yao Ming's luggage and helped Yao Ming and his accomplice Francis into the car.

Francis was quite excited.

Bill Duffy got a miniature Oscar; these days, the miniature Oscar is still very prestigious.

NBA stars can't just sit there whenever they want, and Francis's current salary wouldn't be enough to buy one.

Bill Duffy does have some ability, and Yao Ming is not stingy with giving him some benefits, which is why Bill Duffy is so high-profile about Yao Ming's shareholding in "Adiwang".

The success of the Giant God has made Adidas regret its decision.

They sold like hotcakes in the country.

The first batch of sneakers was released in just one month, and more than 1700 million were sold in the United States, while more than 500 million were still available in China!

Moreover, this sales ratio is still rising as the season progresses.

If they had given Yao Ming a contract worth 100 million yuan back then, they could have recouped their investment with just two or three pairs of sneakers and then sit back and make money effortlessly.

Unfortunately, those are all ideas from the past.

Francis also considered getting a shoe contract.

However, his status wasn't high enough, so Nike only offered him 300,000 yuan a year, while Adidas, out of respect for Yao Ming, offered him 500,000 yuan a year for a minimum of four years.

Boss Fu, with his fiery temper, immediately left the chat while cursing.

When Yao Ming arrived at the filming location of GG, he almost burst out laughing.

Before him stood two familiar faces, Kobe and McGrady, but what was even more amusing was seeing another familiar figure, the still-young King... LeBron James!
