PS:!!!!!!!!!
At this moment, the news also reached them. David Stern, who had just gotten off the plane at the Forbidden City International Airport, heard it.
“what?Paul Allen, 150 million dollars for seven years!”
"F * ck! Was he crazy? He was simply disrupting the market.”
"Damn bastard! This tycoon was simply throwing money like crazy to buy the O'Brien Cup.”
David Stern cursed, his expression extremely ugly.
Originally, during the offseason, he had thought of using Zhang Long to play against the Los Angeles or Boston Celtics. Among the two powerhouse teams.
The battle between the yellow and green teams in the 1980s reappeared.
After all, the portland trail blazers were a small city.
"Mr. President, what should we do now? Do you still want to go to Mother Yang?" the assistant asked.
"Yes, of course I have to go. This was the only chance to open up the market in the Dragon Kingdom.”
"Hey! This couldn't go on. If it were the rich, they would do this. Using cash to attract superstars…"
David Stern frowned and muttered to himself,""The current labor agreement will only expire in two years.”
"The 98-99 season is the focus of the CBA labor negotiations. He had to point out that a team's total salary exceeded the salary cap. You have to pay a luxury tax."
"Yes, I am. This is the only way."
If not, the owners of the rich teams would have to pay for it. They would wantonly wave their banknotes and use money to clear the way. The rich teams would become stronger and stronger.
A team without money would only become weaker and weaker.
Thinking of this, David Stern couldn't help but feel a headache.
"What is it? A player from our Dragon Country and China appeared in the NBA?”
"Yes, his name is Zhang Long. He was from Guangxi, Guangxi, and his parents had unfortunately passed away. Now playing for the portland trail blazers."
"Also, he performed well in the playoffs. He scored an average of 37 points per game. He was currently leading the team to the Western Conference finals.”
"This time, I am extending a solemn invitation. Mother Yang sent a broadcasting team to Atlanta.”
"David. You mean…Little Zhang could possibly make it to the NBA finals?”
In Mother Yang's deputy station head's office, the deputy station head personally recorded the video. He put it on the CD.
"That's right. With his strength, he could lead the team to the Western Conference championship. However, against the basketball god Jordan, could they win? This is full of suspense."
David Stern nodded calmly.
"This is the first time a Dragon Country player has made it to the finals. At the highest level of basketball in the world, facing the God of Basketball."
"Yes... We will consider it carefully. However, they still had to hold a meeting to discuss and make a decision.”Yang Ma, the deputy station head, pondered for a while before speaking slowly.
"This is a small step for China and a big step for the world of basketball.”
David Stern quickly spoke and continued to persuade him.
......
After resting in the hotel bed for a day, Zhang Long finally recovered some strength.
"My God, Cliffford. He had gone to the nightclub last night and was still not back?”
Looking at the dark circles under his eyes in the mirror, Zhang Long couldn't help but yawn. He walked out of the bathroom and saw that the bed next door was empty. He couldn't help but shake his head.
Unexpectedly, an NBA player. He still had to vent his energy at night.
One had to know that it was an away game. Sonic fans ran to the Blazers 'hotel all night and made a scene.
It was two o'clock in the morning, and he was still playing the horn. Loud DJ music. The entire team, including the coaching staff. The uniform team was restless.
Especially Zhang Long, who was woken up in the middle of the night. Cliffford couldn't sleep and wanted to drag him to a nightclub.
Zhang Long quickly rejected with a smile. She said that she was not yet 20 years old and could not drink.
At noon that day, they took a bus to the rented arena. Restorative training.
“what?Why don't you rent it to us!" The head coach, PJ Calessimo, was shocked. He walked up to the owner of the arena and argued with him.
"Get lost! I'm a Sonic fan."
"It's all because of Zhang that we lost!”
"I'll compensate you for the breach of contract."
Zhang Long stood in the middle of his teammates, chatting and laughing. They were talking about the delicacies of their own country. Snacks.
"We have a delicacy in Nanning. Old friend fan."
"Old friend? A fan? What's that?"
"It can make you sweat profusely when you catch a cold. Eating a bowl of noodles could instantly cure a cold.”
Helpless, the manager could only lead the players. They took the bus back to the hotel gym for strength training.
"Coach. Forget it. None of our brothers slept well yesterday.”
"Since we can't practice basketball, why don't we go back to our room now? Zhang Long had a good sleep to recover his energy. After riding the spinning bike for a while, he sweated a little.
"Alright, Sonic fans. This is simply too crazy."
Then, Zhang Long walked back to his hotel room. He locked the door and took a shower. He lay comfortably on the bed and fell asleep.
It had to be said that this was the NBA playoffs. With the home advantage, the fans would not tire of playing tricks on the visiting team.
1996-05-20 On the 24th, the portland trail blazers challenged the seattle supersonic.
It was still the original starting lineup, no changes.
Both teams started with the center forward jumping ball.
"Hey! Kid, you're really lucky. He became a billionaire in an instant. "Michael (Jordan), after playing for so many years, you still don't earn as much as you do."
"Is that so, old man? I can give you 63 points.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Long flew past Gallipayton like the wind. He jumped, stretched, and caught the basketball in his arms.
Zhang Long's first move was to attack quickly. With lightning speed, he charged at the Sonic Sonic basket.
Bang! It was Zhang Long's first time doing a slam dunk with one arm at the opening of Key Arena.
Garry Payton and Shawn Kemp had just reached the three-point line. He could only watch helplessly. Thousands of fighting spirits were aroused in his heart.
The scoreboard changed. Blazers 2-0 Sonic.
Changing offense and defense, supersonic possession, first attack.
Zhang Long deliberately ran to the inside lane and fought with Shawn Kemp. The two of them showed their elbows and pushed each other under the basket.
He wanted to try out his touch on the outside. At a 45-degree angle on the left flank, he made a three-point attack.
Clang! I'll beat you up in anger.
The rebound was snatched by the 221 giant Sabonis.
It couldn't be helped, Rain Man Camp. He was forcefully pushed to the right side of the three-second zone by Zhang Long.
Rain Man Kemp started to trash talk."Hey, soft egg. What's wrong with you today? He actually ran into the paint to fight me hand-to-hand."
"Old man. I'm not called Hello. I advise you to go to the hospital to see a gynecologist."
Zhang Long glanced at it and quickly ran across the half court. He began to accelerate and run without the ball.
"Old Sa. Let's do an alley-oop!" Zhang Long pointed at the basket and shouted at Sabonis.
“OK。Zhang, you have to take it well."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sabonis directly made an exquisite long pass to the quarterbacks. He passed the basketball to the Sonic Sonic hoop.
Zhang Long followed the dragon and rushed to the basket. With a kick of his knees, he suddenly jumped up like an eagle spreading its wings. His right hand grabbed the basketball and, separated by the supersonic center, Erwin, he made a powerful slam dunk.
Boom!
The Sounders 'starting center's expression changed. It was as if a speeding train had crashed into him.
In the next second, he was knocked back. He fell heavily onto the floor.
Zhang Long's arms hung on the basket as he faced the camera. "The sky is my limit!!”
The scoreboard changed. Blazers 4-0 Sonic.
In just 18 seconds, Zhang Long had already scored 4 points.
