NBA backer king

Chapter 502
On the 10th, Lao Wang had just woken up and hadn’t brushed his teeth when Fox suddenly called and told him excitedly that he had received a text message from the party invitation from the Los Angeles branch of the K Martial Art Museum.

"Brother Fei, is there a party going on here?" After hanging up the phone, he turned around and asked.

Brother Fei is packing Lao Wang's luggage and is about to go to the away game. Hearing this, he said: "The trading company here has already done its job, and the domestic trading company has sent a lot of orders. We need to hold a party immediately to find suppliers who can provide high-quality goods."

"Oh."

"Husband, my dad suggested me to open an import and export trading company before, but I chose to open a film and television company. This time I opened a trading company. I didn't expect the business to be so good. If I knew it, I would have started it." Yu Feihong said excitedly.

"The film and television company didn't make any money?" Old Wang asked casually.

"I made some money, not much. I made a lot of losses from domestic investment, but I made some money from importing foreign movies," Yu Feihong said.

"By the way, did my second sister say when she would reorganize the martial arts gym for me?" Old Wang asked.

"Come on, she is making a plan, I don't know the details." Yu Feihong said.

"My sister isn't going to hurry up?" Lao Wang muttered.

"Second sister mainly focuses on her studies, and she has three majors. She only does these business matters in her spare time."

"What's the situation between Zhang Weihua and Liu Xibei and my two sisters now?"

"Not bad, but the two of them are about the same as the eldest sister. They are both nerds. After finishing their studies here, they are all planning to return to China to do research. Only the second sister is better. She often takes time to attend some parties in the martial arts hall and has plans to go into business."

"It's better to be a nerd, so you don't have to open your eyes and get confused in this colorful world."

When Old Wang said this, he thought of Mrs. John for some reason, and said, "Brother Fei, ask Changjiang to contact Phoenix and send Mrs. John a party invitation.

Mrs. John is still good. Her family can be regarded as the top snake in Phoenix. It has been passed down there for hundreds of years. It used to be in agriculture and has a lot of contacts. Although it is not very good now, the foundation is still there. Anyway, I want to find a supplier. See if I can give her some opportunities to let her breathe, maybe she can recover. "

"Okay, I'll call Changjiang later."

Yu Feihong nodded, and suddenly asked, "You have such a good relationship with the Colangelo family, why don't you invite them?"

Lao Wang shook his head and said, "The Colangelo family only has the sports industry, and no other business."

……

Next, the Lakers went through three more away games. After defeating the Mavericks on the 11th, they defeated the Spurs and Mosaic back to back on the 13th and 14th. They won four consecutive victories, and their record rose to 6 wins and 1 loss, ranking third in the West.

Kobe, who started consecutive starts, performed well, averaging 17 points per game and shooting 47% from the field. Scoring is not a big deal. The important thing is that for a second-year shooting guard, this efficiency is very good.

Richmond's performance returned to normal, and he played well with Lao Wang. His average per game has increased from 14.6 points in the first three games to the current 18.5 points. There is still room for improvement. It is very possible to average 20+ points per game.

If he and Kobe can always be so powerful on the perimeter, Lao Wang's offensive pressure will be much less, and he can devote more energy to other aspects.

But also because of the existence of Lao Wang, if the offensive ability of these two people is not strong to a certain extent, they will also be suppressed by Lao Wang. Many of Lao Wang's teammates in the past few seasons have proved this point, unless Lao Wang deliberately reduces offense.

Chris Mullin and Rick Fox also played well in the bench lineup. The former played the second position, the latter played the third position, Fisher replaced the first position, Danny Fortson replaced the fourth position, and only the fifth position was too weak.

The strength of these three teams is very weak, or very bad, so Lao Wang’s shots are reduced a lot, more energy is developed for his teammates, he seizes the opportunity to run the lineup, and makes all-round contributions in other areas.

The Blazers got off to a fiery start, winning all 7 games, and are still No. [-] in the Western Conference, tied for No. [-] in the league with the Knicks.

The Jazz, with 7 wins and 1 loss, is second in the Western Conference.

The second week of the regular season ended, and the league updated the MVP rankings.

Because the Lakers' record has risen, although Wang Tiejun's personal score has declined, he is still the league's scoring leader, and other statistics are excellent, so he still ranks first.

第二是奥尼尔，场均35分钟，场均32分12.5篮板2.3助攻0.7抢断2.7盖帽2.9失误3.2犯规。

第三是乔丹，快35岁了，依然打出了极为出色的表现，场均38分钟时间，场均31分6篮板4助攻1.9抢断0.5盖帽2.3失误1.8犯规。

The fourth is the postman Karl Malone, the fifth is the rookie Tim Duncan, the sixth is Ewing, the seventh is the big dream Olajuwon, and the eighth is David Robinson.

With the announcement of the MVP rankings in the second week, Tim Duncan's name appeared in the news of major media, and the attention was further increased.

He is the super No. [-] pick that made half of the league miserable, and he was traded again and again during the offseason. The attention itself is very high, but he was traded by the Lakers and the Suns one after another, which also caused him a lot of doubts. Now, he entered the MVP rankings as a rookie, ranking fifth, and directly swept away these doubts.

Debut is the pinnacle, which has become his trademark.

The last person with this sign was Iverson, but Iverson is not as good as Duncan, Philadelphia has no record, a typical bad team, and has not entered the top ten of the MVP rankings so far.

"Old K, haha, have you seen my ranking?" O'Neill, who ranked second, also called Lao Wang, showing off.

"Congratulations, Shark, it feels great to put Jordan under him, doesn't it feel great?" Old Wang joked.

"Haha, let me tell you, old K, this feeling is great!" O'Neill laughed triumphantly.

"Then go on, like me, beat him three times, it will be more enjoyable, you are nothing now. By the way, Shark, I think you'd better kick him away. Now he hugs your thigh. Look at how good his stats are. If you kick him away, your stats will skyrocket a lot, and it is possible to surpass me, haha..."

Lao Wang started to tease, and at the end, he couldn't stop laughing.

"Old K, you bastard, I won't listen to you." O'Neill was not a fool, and hung up the phone cursingly.

……

On the 15th, a party was held at the K Martial Art Museum in Los Angeles, and all businessmen were invited. Wang Tiejun, his wife and Erya attended the party as the party host.

Mrs. Keryl John arrived from Phoenix, dressed up for the party.

Her spirit is quite haggard. In this financial turmoil, more than half of her family lost, and her personal assets lost as much as 23%, adding up to a loss of more than [-] billion US dollars. Most of the high-quality assets in Phoenix have been sold, and all overseas assets have been sold. The vitality has been severely damaged.

When she received a party invitation from the Los Angeles branch of the K Martial Art Museum the day before yesterday, she was a little strange. It is normal for the Phoenix branch to invite her to a party. What did the Los Angeles branch invite her to do?
However, she owed a big favor to the old K siblings, so she gladly accepted the invitation and carefully prepared a gift.

"You are welcome, Mrs. John."

"Old K, I'm glad you invited me to this party."

When he saw Mrs. John, Lao Wang immediately led the people over.

"Feihong, second sister, this is Mrs. John. Mrs. John, this is my wife Yu Feihong, and this is my second sister Wang Lian." Old Wang introduced.

After the two parties greeted each other, Mrs. John said gratefully to Er Ya: "The news about Ms. Wang Lian last time was very important to me and my family. I am really grateful."

"Madam is too polite..." Erya said a few words politely,

At this time, Mrs. John took out a few pieces of paper, handed them to Lao Wang with both hands, and said, "Old K, as my thanks, this is a gift I prepared, please accept it."

"Why are you being so polite, ma'am?"

Lao Wang declined for a while, but the hospitality was hard to turn down, so he accepted it.

After looking at it, it was a gift list, which said 136 Chinese-style antique vases and 3668 Chinese-style antique porcelain bowls... There is a large list of ten or twenty items in the back, and I don’t know how many things there are.

"Ma'am, what is this?" He asked in surprise.

Mrs. John said with some embarrassment: "These are some collections of the family for a hundred years. They all come from China, and I don't know the specific value. I'm sorry..."

"understand."

Lao Wang nodded again and again, saying that he understood, he didn't know what he understood, and felt that Mrs. John was just fooling him with some bottles and cans.

But this is a free gift, representing the heart of others, and I still have to say thank you, it doesn't matter if it's worth it or not.

"Mrs. John, I invite you here this time. My wife and sister's trading company has a large number of orders in China. If you have a suitable source of goods, you can become one of the suppliers." Old Wang said.

"Really?"

Mrs. John's eyes widened, and she finally understood why Old K invited her to the branch party in Los Angeles, it was for her business!
"Old K, I am really grateful! I promise, our John family will be your forever friends. We will provide your company with the best source of goods you need."

"Well, Phoenix still has a lot of products that we need domestically. This business can last for a long time, and it's not a one-off."

"That's great!"

Mrs. John was very excited. This is the best opportunity for the family to get rid of the current predicament and find vitality again.

The order this time is very complicated, ranging from daily necessities to various household appliances, as well as various mechanical products and so on.

The businessmen who participated in the party did not expect that the K Martial Art Museum suddenly threw out so many orders, and they were overjoyed. They thought it was just an ordinary party, a complete surprise.

Erya and Yu Feihong led the management of the American trading company, carefully selected a group of reputable businessmen, and handed over the order to them.

Mrs. John got a lot of orders from it, mainly orders for various electrical appliances. Her family has this business and it is still in hand.

……

After defeating the Grizzlies at home on the 16th, the Lakers came to Salt Lake City on the 17th.

On the 18th, the Lakers and the Jazz started a battle.

Unfortunately, this game was lost, and the two sides drew one to one.

Kobe felt cold and played abnormally. He made 3 of 0 three-pointers and scored only 11 points, with a shooting percentage of only 38%.

Richmond performed well, scoring 24 points, but his shooting percentage was only 36%, which was inefficient and relied on shots to score points.

The efficiency of the two main outsiders forced Pharaoh to take crazy shots on the offensive end, but because the outside touch was not good, the Jazz frantically double-teamed him, and his efficiency was also limited. His shooting percentage was only 56%, and he scored 46 points.

This efficiency and scoring are no problem against other teams, but against a championship-level team like the Jazz, if the teammates are not good enough, it still won't work.

Moreover, the Lakers still couldn't defend against the opponent's pick-and-roll tactics. Although their defensive performance was better than the first game, it was not much better. The postman and Sabonis could only defend one, so they lost their temper.

In addition, the joining of the big bug has strengthened the disadvantage of the Jazz in blue cricket, and it is also the reason why the Lakers lost.

Late at night, with a record of 7 wins and 2 losses, the Lakers left Salt Lake City and returned to Los Angeles. Tomorrow they will face the Timberwolves back to back.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Lao Wang came to the living room after getting up, and Yu Feihong said with a smile on his face: "Husband, the things sent by Mrs. John have been received, and more than ten containers have been packed.

I got someone to appraise some of them from a pawn shop in Chinatown. There are many good things in it, and they are really antiques. "

"Tens of thousands of antiques?" Old Wang asked in surprise.

"Antiques are antiques. It's hard to tell the value. The pawnshop said that most of them are worthless civilian items, and very few are high-quality goods." Yu Feihong said.

"Let's put it aside for now. I'll find someone from China to come over and make a proper appraisal." He thought for a while and said.

……

"Kevin, the last year of your rookie contract?"

Before the game, in the player tunnel, Pharaoh asked when he saw Garnett.

"Yes, old K, this year is my contract year." Garnett replied quickly.

"Are you going to change teams?" Pharaoh asked casually.

"Change, change team?"

Garnett was taken aback. Is Old K trying to recruit him?

When I think about it this way, I am very excited. Old K has actually taken a fancy to him?When I think about the Lakers lineup, they really lack a good power forward, which makes me even more excited.

However, there is no room for the Lakers to give him a contract of [-] million yuan. What he wanted was a contract of [-] million yuan. He immediately lost his mind to go to the Lakers. He immediately shook his head and said, "The team hopes to renew my contract in advance, and I still hope to stay with the home team."

"Oh."

Lao Wang nodded and didn't speak any more, he just asked casually.

When Garnett saw that Old K had stopped talking, he felt itchy. Old K, you are recruiting me. If you don't recruit me, how can I refuse you?

"What do you want to say?"

Seeing Garnett's hesitant look on his face, Old Wang asked.

"No, nothing." Garnett shook his head hastily.

In the subsequent games, due to back-to-back reasons, the physical fitness of his teammates was not very good, and there were some problems in the state, but the opponent was too weak. Lao Wang led the team to beat the Timberwolves. He scored 44 points, 22 rebounds, 11 assists and 7 blocks. Luxury data.

8 wins and 2 losses, on the 23rd, the Lakers played against their city rival, the Clippers, at home.

Old Wang invites Da Ben to lunch. Da Ben is still in the Clippers and is a teammate with Nash. He performed well. His defense and rebounding ability have won the trust of the team. The contract was renewed last year. Now his annual salary is over one million. With the stinginess of the Clippers owner Sterling, it is already very good to get this contract.

With 9 wins and 2 losses, on the 24th, the Lakers started their road trip to the Eastern Conference. They will challenge the Heat, Celtics and Digital Team successively. The first two games are back-to-back games.

Alonzo Mourning has already played a top center with weak offense and strong defense. The Heat brought in PJ Brown from the Nets last season, forming an inside combination with very good defense and OK offense.

Last season, the Mavericks brought in Jamal Mashburn from the three-J combination, plus Tim Hardaway, a bug, and Voshan Leonard, who is not bad, and has full offensive power from the outside.

Although the entire lineup is not as good as the three championship-level teams in the first tier in the East, it is also closely followed and has strong competitiveness.

However, Mourning's height and tonnage are at an absolute disadvantage in front of Lao Wang. Lao Wang has an absolute advantage in the low post, and he still led the team to blast the Heat and achieved a record of 10 wins and 2 losses.

With such a record, the Lakers can still only occupy the third position in the West. The top two are dominated by the Trail Blazers who are still undefeated and the Jazz who have only one defeat.

Tim Duncan played a continuous and stable all-round performance on both ends of the offense and defense. After more than a dozen games, he left the deepest impression on people. He is stable, and it is a stable top offensive and defensive performance.

Many media used a teasing tone, thinking that the Lakers made the most wrong deal. If Duncan stayed with the Lakers and joined forces with Old K, a three-peat dynasty was just around the corner.

Some media believe that if the Lakers do not trade K and leave Dameng and Duncan behind, the current Lakers should be stronger than the Blazers.

The Lakers boss and management dismissed the first kind of idiot remarks. Don't they want to keep Duncan? If they can't, is the Suns management an idiot?

As for the second comment, they were even more dismissive. Is the combined attention of Dameng and Duncan higher than that of Old K?Adding them up, is the value that Old K created for the Lakers high?
As for strength, no matter how strong the dream is, how long can it last?The current alliance is not what it used to be. Once Dameng's status declines, Duncan will be unable to support himself alone. It will be even more difficult to find another strong partner like Dameng.

And no matter how strong Duncan's performance is, is there an old K?

It's Colangelo Jr., it's a pity that the team lost such a cornerstone of the team.

It's just that he couldn't help it. The boss insisted on trading, and he didn't even know the reason, so he sent Dameng and Duncan to the Blazers.

In private, he discussed the deal with his father, thinking that the boss Mrs. John should have an off-market deal with Paul Allen.

This made them a little dissatisfied with Mrs. John. This was an exchange of the interests of the team, which not only harmed the interests of the Suns, but also harmed their interests.

However, Mrs. John assured the team that as long as the family recovers, they will definitely increase their investment in the Suns, which made them forgive poor Mrs. John.
