The Three Illusions of Texas
Originally, Jiang Lin would not have been in such a hurry, but the news of Kobe's interview had forced him to hurry.
Then, he looked at the schedule. The next two consecutive trips would be to fly to Los Angeles after the game in Houston. There would be no training time during that period, and the team would not rent a top-class stadium. They would only rent a local school's stadium for small training. He did not know if it would count as a three-point number by the system, so they could only train at home for a limited time.
For nothing else.
It was to better prepare for the challenge with Kobe!
If he wanted to become stronger and deal with the Los Angeles Clippers with a stronger attitude, he had to strengthen his armed forces.
Hearing this response, he had to go all out to screw his "old boss". After all, he had even made a bold claim to a staff member that he wanted to get 60 points.
Jiang Lin would not underestimate the current year's Laker either. Although they had a bad start, they were able to enter the playoffs almost on Kobe's own. Because Howard had a shoulder injury that year, he had to rest for many games in the regular season. F4 had never been able to fully recover.
This year was the last year of Kobe's peak period, and it was also the year where his skills were the most mature and stable. It was just that he met the Spurs in the first round. The Spurs had been a top team in the championship for the past few years.
He was already prepared. He would first reach the trigger point, then go all out to trigger the achievement when he played the lone ranger. Then, he would bring a three-point skill pack to play against the Los Angeles Clippers. That would be more reliable.
The Chinese were never arrogant people. When Jiang Lin said that, he was fully prepared. It would be difficult for him to break into the middle of the Laker's top player, Howard and Gasol. Therefore, it was important to have a shot. The farther, the better.
There was no need for a logo three-pointer. It was very difficult for him to score during training, so he would practice the empty three-pointer first.
"Hey, Jiang, go back and pack your things. You should be staying at a hotel for the next three days. We'll meet at the airport at 4 p. m. If you're late, you'll be fined 20,000 dollars.”Jiang Lin was still practicing when almost everyone in the stadium had left. The press officer, Jack, hurriedly shouted to him after he hurried downstairs.
"Alright, just throw in one more." The shirtless Jiang Lin completed today's three-point training with a dry pull three-point. It was exactly 30,000 three-point training goals, reaching the trigger point.
"Finally, I don't have to shoot a three-pointer!" After the ball went in, Jiang Lin took the ball and crazily dunked with both hands to reward himself.
With so many consecutive three-point shots, and it wasn't even consecutive shots, anyone would throw up. Jiang Lin couldn't help but want to dribble and dunk!
Jack looked at him with a doting gaze. This newcomer was not affected by the flattery of the outside media at all. He was still the person who trained the most on the team, which was very reassuring.
Being arrogant was the last thing a rookie should do. When they saw the video of Jiang Lin's interview in Chinese, the fans all over the world thought that he was arrogant. In the end, he trained harder than anyone else. He deserved to be arrogant!
"Kid, have you seen Kobe's interview video?”
"I did." Jiang Lin said as he put on his clothes.
"This morning, Edward said he was going to risk your life.”
"That's why I've trained for three points."
"Haha, let's go. Don't be late. The consequences are really serious.”Jack was the second to last to leave the arena.
Jiang Lin quickly ran to the single apartment and brought his belongings. This was his first away trip, so there was a special chartered plane and a special seat. Therefore, most players would bring a few sets of clothes on the plane. Jiang Lin also went back to prepare.
It might not matter if he was not at home for a few days, but he thought that Yang Fei might look for him, so he left a small note and stuffed it under her door.
"Yang Fei, this is Jiang Lin. I won't be at home for the next three days. If you need anything, just call me. This is my phone number and also my WeChat number.”
Jiang Lin didn't know why he was doing this. As neighbors, they didn't even have contact information. There was no more hardcore way to get WeChat, right?
He thought of what might happen in three days and added,""You might have heard about my work and news after I came back. Hehe, but I know you won't be disturbed by this. We're still ordinary neighbors.”
If the first match was just a warm-up, then Jiang Lin would become more and more explosive. Yang Fei would hear about his deeds no matter what. What he hoped for was not to disturb the friendly friendship between the two of them.
……
That night, Jiang Lin followed the team's special plane to land in Texas. This was one of the three giants of Texas. The wild wind of Texas blew against his face. Although Jiang Lin knew that the Mavericks were in a transition period this year, it was his first time playing away. He did not know what would happen.
The reason why the Mavericks were in a transition period this year was not because of Lin Jiang's memories from his previous life that the Mavericks were 12th in the Western Conference this season, but because they had seen the lineup of the Mavericks on the plane. The team was full of older players. As far as their eyes could see, they were old players from 2000 and 1999. The lineup of the team was really aging.
The three big illusions of Texas: the Spurs are old, the Mavericks are weak, and the Rockets are strong. These three sentences have been used until now.
Therefore, even though the Mavericks looked weak, he could sometimes beat strong teams.
While Jiang Lin was actively preparing for the match, the country had completely launched an offensive to promote him. Paininfo Sports sent two beautiful anchors, Xiao Qi and Mei Na, to the United States as frontline reporters. They were responsible for reporting and interviewing all the Grizzlies 'matches before the match, while Duan Ran was responsible for post-match interviews and press conferences.
They even hired a photography team that specialized in shooting music videos and sports documentaries to follow the three reporters throughout the entire process. They just had to stay by Jiang Lin's side and be done with it. They wanted to give Jiang Lin any help unconditionally and establish a friendly cooperative relationship with him.
Jiang Lin's commercial value was limitless. He had to build a good relationship with him first. In the future, if he wanted to expand into the entertainment industry, he would have to work in the sports world. Jiang Lin should be the biggest celebrity in China's basketball industry in the post-Yao era. There was a reason why he could earn so much money. He had a keen sense of the market.
Therefore, the task that Pain News Sports gave Duan Ran and the other two was: "Agree to all of Jiang Lin's requests, and all of the resources in the company can be mobilized for him!”
