Basketball injuries only make me stronger

Chapter 36
TV suddenly reported a big news!

A drunk-driving basketball player named Redick killed Morey, who was the Rockets' manager at the time.As a result, Redick himself was paraplegic at a high level below the waist, and he will have problems with defecation and defecation in the future.Not only that, but he also faces a hefty fine and several years in prison.Afterwards, he expressed regret in an interview, because he decided to participate in the NBA draft next year, and many teams have already expressed concern about him.

There is no doubt that he is finished.

There is no regret medicine in the world, Redick and Morey go well!
……

Choosing the 76ers, of course Lian Feng has his own ideas.

In the limited selection, Lianfeng must consider factors such as loss risk and team fitness, future expectations, team atmosphere, etc., and expect them to be balanced at a certain level.

It's hard to decide.

So Lian Feng simply didn't think so much.

He chose to think differently.

In fact, there is no need to think so complicated and utilitarian!
The 05-06 season was Iverson's last full season with the 76ers.

Then, Iverson was also Lian Feng's idol!
Only Iverson of the 76ers is youthful!
These two points are enough.

Let Zhuo Mei worry about such messy things as operation, balance, business, and career planning.

After all, I am not LeBron James. I really can't become an excellent athlete, and at the same time, let the identity of a businessman appear on me in a unified way.

Then be pure!
I restarted my life, why bother to think so many questions?

Love basketball, continue to love basketball, and then simply enjoy it, become teammates with legendary superstars, play against legendary teams, win or lose, and fight for honor... This process is complete, and it is enough.

After staying with Zhuo Mei for a long time, I was almost subtly messed up my mentality.Sure enough, women only affect the speed of my ball.

Humph.

Of course, this cannot be said to her face to face.

Having really made a decision, Lian Feng could finally calm down and think about this trial training.

After thinking about it carefully, I suddenly realized that there was really no need to worry.

Looking at the top picks in these years, body, height and wingspan are undoubtedly the first considerations, because these are things that cannot be taught.

The draft is a gamble. Most people are willing to believe in what they can see. Height, wingspan, jumping, and speed are all that.And all kinds of passing and ball skills can be polished carefully.

The gang leader chose Kwame Brown, which once became a laughing stock.But is the boss really stupid?Kwame Brown was not the only one who wanted to choose Kwame Brown.

Why choose him?Just rely on Kwame Brown's physical fitness and... age!
There is a saying that goes like this, the NBA is not afraid of rookies being thin, but afraid of rookies being slow.What is even more frightening is that the rookie is short and slow.

Lian Feng's talent can be seen blindly. It is also a gamble. Unless 76 is mentally ill, of course they will not let go of a young man who can win a big market once he wins the bet!
As for the second-round pick, there is no need to worry about it.I haven't played in the NCAA, and I haven't even been able to participate in the joint trial training. NBA teams are not fools. How could they use the precious first-round pick on themselves?
……

"We are very happy that you made the right decision! Believe me, under the guidance of Coach Cheeks, you will start a wonderful NBA career!"

When the team management made a commitment to Lian Feng, the rest of the matter will be represented by his agent.

You know, what the 76ers gave him was just a promise, but if the team temporarily changes their minds during the draft, Lianfeng will have nothing.

Fortunately, Lian Feng is not fighting alone, and this kind of situation is absolutely unacceptable to CAA.Zhuomei will use the strength of the company to help him communicate and arrange everything, including the negotiation of the contract content.

Lian Feng couldn't help sighing how lucky it is for an athlete to have a reliable agent.

Players have to take into account the impact, so many things are inconvenient to negotiate with the team management, and it is also inconvenient to tear their faces.But agents can unscrupulously help players strive for the best interests, and even challenge the team management.

In addition, a brokerage company like CAA with good resources and wide channels can also win greater benefits for players when operating endorsements, commercial activities and other things.

Leaving those messy things to Zhuo Mei, Lian Feng can concentrate on playing.

Zhuo Mei is also willing to do these things, not only because it can reflect her value, but also because it is something she loves.

Lian Feng stayed in Philadelphia for another two days.

He had nothing to do these two days, mainly Zhuo Mei was busy running around to help him coordinate the details of the docking.With CAA as the backing, Lian Feng can have the confidence not to be fooled.

Taking advantage of Zhuo Mei's busy time, Lian Feng went to the team's training hall for a stroll.

In the week or two leading up to the draft, teams try out many players.After the trial training of Lian Feng's six players ended, they started the next round of trial training non-stop.

This period of time is the offseason, and I heard that Iverson is taking his mother and a bunch of brothers to a certain place for vacation.Webber is resting his body, and Iguodala, a sophomore, is doing special promotion.

It's really a pity that I couldn't see the AI, not even the first brother.

However, under the relationship of Cheeks, Lian Feng was fortunate to be taken by a guide to visit the Wachovia Center.

After all, it will be his home arena in the future, and Lian Feng showed great interest.

Strictly speaking, the people of Philadelphia certainly love the 76ers, but they love the NFL Eagles even more.Especially in recent years, there have been more and more negative news about AI, and the attendance rate of the team has been declining year by year.

But when it comes to the team, the guide's face is still full of pride.

"Lian, you have to know some history! The 76ers have always been one of the giants in the league. In the history of our team, there have been players who have changed the history of the NBA such as Chamberlain, Dr. J, and Iverson. Make the 76ers one of the world's fan favorites...yes, the world loves us!"

Lian Feng agreed.

With the success of the NBA's global promotion strategy, especially the Chinese people, in this era, I don't know how many people also fell in love with the 76ers because of Iverson.

"This arena, I'm more used to calling her the First United Center! But as you know, it was renamed the Wachovia Center last season. It is the fifth largest arena in the league. Provide catering, entertainment, accommodation and other services. Due to the relatively recent construction time, the design of the arena has absorbed a lot of experience from successful arenas, and all facilities are highly practical. It is the most famous ball in the league. One of the stadiums! Oh, and of course, it’s also home to the NHL (hockey) Flyers.”

The team retired 7 jerseys in total.
No. 6, Julius Erwin.

Number 10, Maurice Cheeks.

Number 13, Wilt Chamberlain.

15, Hau Greer.

Number 24, Bobby Jones.

No. 32, Billy Cunningham.

No. 34, Charles Barkley.

Counting the names of these retired players, the guide was very excited. He acquiesced that Lian Feng did not know these names.In the perception of Americans, the news of Chinese people is as closed as it was 30 years ago.

Lian Feng was silent for a while, then shook his head: "One day, the No. 3 jersey will be fluttering here!"

The guide glanced at Lian Feng in surprise, "Is AI your idol too?"

Lian Feng smiled, but did not answer.

idol?
Like most people who like AI, Lian Feng admires the spirit of AI.His achievements in the NBA where there are many people are already a legend.

The greatness of AI is naturally needless to say.

How can it not be exciting to be a teammate with AI in the last peak period?

……

Two days later, Lian Feng and Zhuo Mei finally boarded the return flight.

Next, Lian Feng can stay in China for a long time.

Since it has been confirmed that it is a second-round pick, Lian Feng is not even interested in coming to the scene to shake hands with the vice president.

The team behind has some activities, and there are messy things like summer league. Cheeks also said that Lianfeng is not needed to participate.

He has only one request for Lian Feng.

Gain some pounds while you can this summer!
Moreover, after returning to China, Lian Feng still has a lot of things waiting for him to deal with!
----------

Regarding the second round of signings, in addition to the reasons analyzed in the plot, there is also an important plot requirement: the contract time for the first round of signings is too long. The season was spent on the certain team that might sign the protagonist, and that missed some important time points...
