"How long has it been since you've seen the Los Angeles Clippers and the New York Knicks appear on the same topic at the same time because of a player?”
Just as Magic Johnson and Kareem Jabbar announced,"
He would be heading to the UCLA Top 16 to watch the sweet Top 16 match that night.
T, NT conference.
Kenny Smith looked at the fatty beside him.""Shaq, when was the last time they were discussed together?”
"If I remember correctly, it should be 1996.”
The fatty sitting next to Kenny Smith was Shaquille O'Neal!
Shark, who became a T, NT basketball commentator after retiring, continued,"
"You all know what happened that summer.”
Summer of 1996.
Shaquille O'Neal left the Orlando Magic, where he had played for many years.
Journey to the West came to the City of Angels and became the star player of the Los Angeles Clippers.
At that time, except for the Los Angeles team.
The New York Knicks were also mentioned in the hot news of " Where Are The Sharks Going?"
Why?
That was because in 1995, the then New York Knicks coach, Donelson, had suggested that the Knicks trade Patrick Ewing.
Who should it be?
Coincidentally, he was using Ewing to exchange for O'Neal!
However, not only did the deal not go on the agenda, but it even led to Nelson being fired by the Knicks.
Reality proved it.
Donnelson's decision was not wrong.
Ewing had never won a championship trophy in his entire career.
On the other hand, Shaquille O'Neal.
After he joined the Los Angeles team, he won the first three consecutive championships for the Purple and Gold team in the new century. It was also the only three consecutive championships in the new century.
After leaving the Laker to join the Heat, O'Neal also teamed up with Wade to bring the Miami Heat a championship trophy.
O'Neal was clearly a stronger weapon than Ewing.
This was also the only topic that the Knicks and the Los Angeles Clippers were entangled with because of a player.
19 years later.
These two teams, which were in big cities, once again logged onto the main pages of major media websites because of a player.
"So Wang Yan is already on the same level as you, Shaq.”
Charles Barkley, who was sitting on the other side of Kenny Smith, said,""I've never seen my buddy and Karim so concerned about a college student.”
"That's because Wang is the defender version of me, Charles.”
O'Neal's mouth was as sharp as Flying Pig's."If it were any other template, he wouldn't have attracted the attention of the Los Angeles Clippers.”
"Come on, buddy, I'm obviously the model for the king's talent show.”
Charles Barkley laughed."You can go to the official website of the Draft and see who they wrote in the draft template for Wang Yan.”
Just like what Flying Pig said.
On the official website of the American NBA draft.
Wang Yan's draft template had been updated.
The Draft player template for Wang Yan was: LeBron James and Charles Barkley!
The war of words between Barkley and O'Neal continued on the topic of Wang Yan.
The two fat men were bickering with each other. This was practically a T. NT routine.
Sitting in the middle, Kenny Smith waited for the two of them to finish their argument before saying,"
"Regardless of whether Wang Yan is more like you or more like you, we have to talk about what you think of him first.”
"Shaq, you talk first."
"After all, the only one who is so passionate about Wang is your old team, the Los Angeles Clippers.”
Kenny Smith took the lead and passed the microphone to Fatty O'Neal.
"I have to admit that I was shocked by this young man's performance.”
As Fatty O'Neal spoke, T. NT's broadcast was showing Wang Yan's NCAA tournament and PAC-12 league matches.
"You've never seen a defender as strong as he is while maintaining this level of athletic talent.”
"After entering the NCAA Tournament, we also saw his unparalleled dribbling talent. His human-ball combination is definitely at the NBA level.”
"Although he has yet to prove his shooting ability, he can maintain a stable output in the NBA.”
"But in my opinion, this is not a problem.”
"Wang's finishing touch inside the paint is very soft, and his shooting without confrontation isn't that embarrassing.”
"His shooting skills can be trained, but his rare physical talent can't be trained.”
Fatty O'Neal had bragged about everything that Wang Yan could boast about.
Even if there was a flaw, it was nothing to the shark.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with what Shaq said.”
Charles Barkley continued,"Some people might say that Wang isn't good enough at shooting.”
"But what I want to say is, you can go and see how LeBron played as a rookie.”
"Wang has more physical talent than LeBron, and his dribbling ability is several levels higher than LeBron.”
"I can even put it this way: Wang's performance in his rookie season would far surpass LeBron James's performance in his rookie years.”
"It is entirely possible that he will give the most outstanding rookie performance in the new century!”
Even though Fatty O'Neal had bragged about everything that Wang Yan could do, he had done it all.
In fact.
Barkley still had other angles to brag about!
That was to compare Wang Yan's draft template: LeBron James!
James was definitely a superstar when he was a rookie.
He was just short of writing the words " I'm the favored son of heaven " on his face that looked like he was already 30 years old.
But even the rookie James was still inferior to Wang Yan in Barkley's eyes!
"Both of you think so highly of Wang Yan?”
Sitting between the two fat men, Kenny Smith was surprised.
Good fellow!
This was probably the first time that two fatties who did not get along with each other actually maintained a high degree of unity on the same topic!？
Especially Charles Barkley.
Flying pigs were very demanding.
Wang Yan could actually make Barkley say something like that. He even felt that the rookie Wang Yan would suppress the rookie James!？
This was indeed beyond Ken Smith's expectations.
It wasn't just Ken Smith.
After this episode of T. NT was broadcast.
It directly blew up all the online platforms in the United States!
On the trending searches on Twitter.
Wang Yan VS LeBron James 'entry directly landed at the second place on the trending searches!
The popularity was obvious.
Such explosive popularity.
It also allowed the media to find one of the people involved in the topic: LeBron James!
After the end of the game where the Clippers defeated the Grizzlies by a large margin.
In the post-match interview.
A reporter from ESPM asked James about Wang Yan's comparison to James when he was a rookie.
"Oh, King? His recent performance had left a deep impression.”
After paddling to win the game, James seemed to be in a good mood.""You know, I've known Wang Yan for a long time.”
"His performance in university was phenomenal.”
"You might not believe it, but I'm preparing to watch his next game.”
James said.
The reporters were in an uproar!
He was going to watch Wang Yan's next match live?
The reporters looked at each other.
They all wanted to know:
James only decided to watch the game after this topic became popular on the Internet.
Or had he already planned this before this topic became popular on the Internet?
However…
The reporters looked at each other, but no one dared to ask.
In the end.
A reporter from the Boston Honest Paper asked,"
"LeBron, if you had the chance, would you want to team up with Wang Yan in the NBA?”
(Kneel, kneel for votes, kneel for support!!)
