You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 124 The Tensioned Meeting

Wei Xia's mind was extremely confused.

The first thing he made clear was that those light curtains that could clearly see the clips were all NBA games, and they were all Celtics games, and it could even be said with certainty that they were John Havlicek's games.

He started counting the light curtains that had fragments.

The first time, when I counted to 58th, I messed up.

The second time, I messed up when I counted to 200.

For the third time, he decided to count quickly in groups of twos. It doesn’t matter if he makes a mistake, as long as he has a general idea of ​​the numbers on the spot.

The answer he finally got was 1400.

The number is definitely not accurate, but it will not be more than 1400, which means that the light curtain that can clearly see the clip is within 1400.

He hasn't forgotten how he crossed over to Skywalker last year. Could it be that he can play those games as long as he walks into these light curtains?

He thought to himself, then made an attempt and took the initiative to walk into the light curtain.

In an instant, his body entered it, and the way of possession was different from the previous terrifying high-altitude slide.

He entered the light curtain and was stimulated by the dazzling light so that he closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he saw a black man standing in front of him, grinning his lips, showing his big white teeth. He said in earthy English that made him want to laugh: "Monkey Duo, the opponent tonight is relatively weak. I can teach you how to shoot the basket. Don't be afraid that you won't make it. Bill hopes you won't make it!"

"Ok."

Wesha recognized the man from Havlicek's memory.

Sam Jones, nicknamed Mr. Key, won all 10 tie-breaks he and Bill Russell have participated in in their lives.In those tie-break games that no one cares about in modern times, Russell averaged 20+30+5 assists per game, while Jones averaged 29 points per game, far exceeding their average performance.

With this Vietnam War and Yueyong duo, it's no wonder that Chamberlain, the soft-footed shrimp who doesn't behave when he gets to the big scene, hasn't defeated the Green Army several times in his life.

Jones' words reminded Wei Xia even more.

John Havlicek's life was changed by him, and the history of the NBA will also be changed.

Havlicek's memories let Wei Xia know that it was the tenth game of the former rookie season. In the preseason training camp, Auerbach ordered Tom Heinsohn and Sam Jones to teach Havlicek to shoot.

Havlicek may be the luckiest person in the world. He only needs to be responsible for buying cigarettes for Heinsohn and courting Sam Jones—if he can’t do it, he will wait until Weisha travels to do it—and he can learn jump shots from one of the best shooters in the world.

Especially Sam Jones, who is a master-level shooting master. In the seventh game of the Eastern Conference Finals last season (1961-62), it was he who hit the lore against Chamberlain to help the Celtics advance.

Havlicek started working on shooting at least five seasons earlier because of Wescia's involvement.

What changes this will bring is unknown.

Wesha only knew that he was forcibly removed from the arena by his brother after only one and a half quarters in his first regular-season game as Havlicek.

Wei Qiu woke up Wei Xia.

"You really don't look good. What time are you still sleeping? If you don't get up, you won't be able to catch the plane!" Wei Qiu urged.

Wei Xia's eyes closed and opened, opened and closed again, his consciousness seemed to be still in that game, and it took a few minutes before he really returned to reality.

Old times are still old times.

Wei Xia now knows what he can and cannot do in the old days.

He couldn't play in the old days, because the game can only be played in the pure black world. After the draft, the pure black world changed drastically. It was full of John Havlicek's game light curtain, and Wei Xia could play any game of Havlicek's career at will.

The weak link that he can't take care of in reality can be completely made up in the old days.

Thinking of this, his fingers trembled with excitement.

"It's incredible." Wei Xia got off the bed and washed it quickly.

Since he slept for a while, he didn't have time to eat breakfast, so he could only eat a piece of bread while walking.

Outside the hotel, his family was ready to leave.

Wei Xia is also leaving. He has to fly to Los Angeles to discuss the signing at the Toyota Center, the headquarters of the Lakers.

In addition to the staff members he has met, there are also some high-level people who have not met him and will also take this opportunity to meet him.

Wei Xia, Wei Qiu, and Wei Chun were separated from their parents at the airport.

Wei Mingliang and Mei Chen were going back to Philadelphia, and they were going back to Los Angeles together.

"By the way, Felix, how much can you get for your first contract?" Even Wei Xia's ex-girlfriend and first love would not be closer to him than Wei Qiu at this time.

Wei Xia walked and said: "I expect to sign a contract of nearly 4 years and 1200 million US dollars!"

"Annie, how long will it take me to earn 1200 million?" Wei Qiu asked brazenly.

Wei Chun thought that Wei Qiu had no good intentions, and when he heard his question, he said bluntly: "Even if you divide 1200 million by one hundred, it will be very difficult for you."

Wei Qiu was not convinced, but he was only a student at a community college, no matter how much he was unconvinced, he could not make a strong rebuttal.

They returned to Los Angeles together, Wei Xia paid their fare, and then took the special car sent by the Lakers to the Lakers headquarters Toyota Center.

At this time, the Toyota Center was not busy.

In previous years, it is time to prepare to gather available personnel to play in the summer league, but this year the Lakers do not plan to form a team to play in the summer league.

There is no summer league arrangement, and it is in the offseason. The training center usually only has maintenance facilities and maintenance staff.

Today is the meeting day for the rookies, the coaching staff, and the management team, and there are many people here.

Wei Xia met the assistant coaches who had come to try out before.

Phil Jackson was still wearing loose clothes, and although he looked at Wei Xia with a smile in his eyes, their last trial training was not pleasant.

"Wish, I hope you didn't have a bad impression of me because of this trial training." Jackson said as if it would be okay if Wei Xia had a bad impression of him.He explained the difficult day: "I just wanted to see how you would react in an unexpected situation. To my surprise, you performed perfectly. Although you were not drafted by any team at the time, your attitude has reached a professional level."

Is this why he tosses people for five hours?It's really convincing.

Wei Xia faked a fancy smile: "I'm so glad I didn't disappoint you."

"Now is not the time to be happy," Zen Master's voice is low and connotative, "If you want to win a place in the team, you need to work harder than others."

Wei Xia's speechless calm made Jackson think he had acquiesced.

Then, Wei Xia saw a whole team brought by Zen Master.

In addition to the assistant coaches and trainers he had seen before, the new face was George Mumford, a member of Jackson's luxurious team, a reformed drug addict and a psychologist who knew all about the gods of basketball.He integrates everything he has experienced into his unique world view and psychological theory to help athletes brush off the dust in their hearts, let them enter the "the zone" mode on the field, and give full play to their abilities.

Tex Winter, the father of the triangle offense, fought alongside Hall of Famer Bill Sharman.The veteran coach quickly impressed the Lakers with his ability to withstand pressure.Like Kobe, he's not afraid of anything. He served as Jackson's "bad cop" in Chicago and was the only person on the coaching staff who dared to challenge Jordan directly. Winter would occasionally correct Jordan's chest pass or other technical flaws.

Chip Shaffer, : Once a trainer for the Bulls, now comes to the Lakers as a game coordinator.Like any member of the coaching staff, in the years when Jordan dominated the championship, he may be everywhere and have his indelible contributions.

There were nine people in total, all staff members who came to the Lakers with Zen Master.

To support this team, the Bass family will spend nearly a million dollars a month (not counting the Zen master).

Wei Xia greeted each of them and walked into the president's office on the second floor.

The office belonged to the Buss family, nominally Jerry Buss, but Dr. Buss rarely came to the Toyota Center, so the people who used it were his two power-fighting children.

One is Jim Buss, whom Wesha has already met, and the other is Jenny Buss, whom Wei Xia has met for the first time.

"Wish, we've met, your arrival will definitely help us return to the championship!" Buss Jr. may have never learned how to flatter others, otherwise he wouldn't have done it so embarrassingly.

After listening to his words, Wei Xia only felt tens of thousands of ants crawling on his scalp.

Jenny showed Weixia how glorious the Lakers' team history is, from the 70s to the present, 9 golden championships.

"Visa, I hope you can make it 10!" Jenny smiled at Weisha at close range, "I like round numbers."

Wei Xia replied with a faint smile: "I like it too."

"Jenny, Felix's nickname doesn't pronounce 'Visa'." Little Buss was like someone who was anxious to reveal to everyone who Wei Xia was. "Visa is a mispronunciation. I don't know which country bumpkin came up with it. American English has swallowed the pronunciation seriously, and now I can't even pronounce four-letter phrases."

Is he mocking his sister?Wei Xia did not expect that the Lakers had so many internal problems.

Jenny's smile was becoming stiff.

Wei Xia belongs to the kind of person who will fast-forward and skip when the plot becomes awkward. He opened his mouth to help Jenny: "It doesn't matter. In fact, the origin of Wish is also due to misreading. Later, when more people read it, it became 'Wish'. I'm used to it."

"That's not right," said Buzz Jr., wanting to disgust his sister. "Wish is a cool nickname, and Visa sounds like a nickname for freckled Indiana rednecks."
