The invincible kryptonite of basketball

Jordan is very honest. He was very upset when the media praised Tang Tian and even used him as a stepping stone and a foil.

Tang Tian smiled and said nothing.

It is impossible for Jordan to invite him all the way just to ridicule him. There must be a twist in this statement.

"but……"

Sure enough, Jordan put down the golf club in his hand and changed the topic.

"After you led the Chinese team to win the championship, I think they are right. To be honest, I am not 100% sure if it is me."

Jordan didn't mention Tang Tian's first championship with the Pelicans, nor did he mention the 62 points in three quarters of the finals, because he can do those as long as he wants.

As the god of basketball, he is arrogant, but Tang Tian's performance in the Olympics, as he said, he may not be able to do it.

Tang Tian continued to look at Jordan.

What Jordan said was foreshadowing, and his real purpose of finding himself may be in the next sentence.

Chapter 897 New season goal: Average triple-double! (Second update!)

Seeing Tang Tian looking at him without saying a word, Jordan used the golf club as a crutch and continued to speak.

"You and I were very similar. We played basketball not to pursue any goal, but to enjoy basketball. Because we have feelings for a city, we will choose to win the first championship there, the second, the third, the achievement A dynasty.

But after achievement, we go after what we want, like me, golf. "

Jordan said and shot another shot, which was a super good shot, and the birdie scored in one shot.

"Oh! This is life!"

Jordan shouted excitedly, turned around and took the cigar from his assistant, lit it up and took a sip.

"Kemba Walker is a very capable and great player. I know he hasn't reached his peak yet, but it's basically unrealistic to rely on him to win the championship, but you are different. You can lead a group of rookies to win the championship in New Orleans, and you can also win the championship here. You can do the same, with your best brother."

After Jordan finished speaking, Tang Tian finally knew what he was looking for.

This is to recruit him to play in Charlotte.

Although it is not very straightforward, the general meaning has been stated relatively clearly.

At the beginning, after the Bulls completed three consecutive championships, Jordan felt that he had no opponents, so he temporarily lost interest in basketball, and chose to retire early to play golf.

Tang Tianxia just renewed a three-year short contract, and after three years, he can jump out of the contract and become a free agent.

If all goes well, he will likely end up with a four-peat with the Pelicans.

According to Jordan's understanding, at that time Tang Tian's state of mind would be the same as he was back then, losing interest in basketball.

When you get tired of a place, change it.

At that time, Tang Tian came to Charlotte to play brother basketball with Walker, which was another brand new life experience.

Such a change is no less than Jordan's choice to play golf.

This proposal is interesting.

"It's a little early."

Tang Tian didn't answer directly.

On the one hand, it is indeed a bit early as he said, because once he does not complete the dynasty in New Orleans, it will be nothing.

On the other hand, and more importantly, he doesn't want to play under Jordan himself.

If he really loses interest in basketball, he is likely to become a team owner like Jordan.

With Jordan in Charlotte, this path is impossible, but it is possible in New Orleans.

Jordan laughed out loud when he heard Tang Tian's answer.

He also didn't expect that Tang Tian would agree to him. The purpose of inviting Tang Tian this time was mainly to build a relationship, and he would really have something to say when Tang Tian became a free agent.

After the two chatted, they went to the restaurant for dinner.

The ingredients prepared by Jordan are top-notch. He is now the big boss of the Bobcats, and he gets more than [-] million dividends from Nike every year.

Inviting Tang Tian to dinner must be classy.

The two of them didn't talk about the previous topic. They ate delicious food and drank fine wine, and they only had to call a few models.

After drinking, Jordan spoke more freely, complaining about the current alliance with Tang Tian.

"As far as the current league is concerned, if I am not old, I will come back for the third time. I can choose to score a triple-double every night, or I can choose to score [-] or [-] points, depending on my own mood. It was so easy."

From Jordan's complaints, it can be felt that he is a little dismissive of the current basketball game.

"You must know that in my era, the current technical fouls are just ordinary fouls. The current ordinary fouls were impossible to call in the past. Basketball is a sport of confrontation. Now it is becoming a performance."

Listening to Jordan's complaints, Tang Tian suddenly felt that the trip to Charlotte was not in vain.

Jordan is not too cold about the current alliance. If he attacks Xiao Hua in the future, Jordan is likely to stand by his side.

You must know that although Jordan has retired, he is the god of basketball after all and has a huge influence.

If both he and Jordan boycott Xiao Hua, it basically means that Nike is boycotting Xiao Hua, and the league will definitely take action.

It seems that it is wise for him not to reject Jordan's invitation directly.

In the past, it was because the low position was not enough for Xiao Hua. Now that the status has risen, and if Jordan is an ally, it will be a matter of course to get rid of Xiao Hua in the future.

"Don, I have a suggestion for you."

At this moment, Jordan suddenly looked at Tang Tian and said.

Tang Tian looked at Jordan curiously.

"In my era, whoever can score is the best. You've proven you can score. If you want to go to a bigger level, you have to try to get more triple-doubles. You know this is the league now. the trend of."

Jordan continued.

Tang Tian nodded after listening.

Jordan's reminder is quite timely.

In terms of scoring, even if he gets more points in the new season, even breaking Kobe's 81 points, everyone's reaction will not be so great.

At most it is: look, Tang is soaring again.

But the triple-double is different. In terms of statistics alone, the triple-double is the highest honor for a player.

That is to say, the scale of whistleblowing in these two seasons has increased, and triple-doubles have become easier.

Before that, a player hadn't had a few triple-doubles in his career.

Tang Tian wants to continue to improve his level and improve his alliance status, this is the direction.

After all, Jordan is someone who came here.

It seems that this trip to Charlotte is not only fruitful, but also very rewarding.

After dinner, Tang Tian took a special plane back to New Orleans.

On the plane, he was already thinking about what he was talking to Jordan about.

His sudden throw and pass skills have reached a certain level, coupled with the auxiliary skills of the triple threat, it should be the easiest for him to get a triple-double.

After he improved his passing ability last season, his triple-double numbers set a new career high.

However, there are also a few places that limit him.

Physical fitness, this is an old problem and a big one.

A large part of the reason for James' triple-doubles is his bug's physical fitness. It is not a problem to play the whole game.

The second is rebounding. Although because of the status of the team, his teammates will give him a handicap, but this is not a long-term solution after all, and he needs to be improved appropriately.

It doesn't have to be as big as the pass improvement, but at least it can have three or five board bonuses.

The last is dribbling.

At the end of his sudden throwing and passing, both his throwing and passing abilities are already very strong, but his suddenness is relatively lacking.

Turtle bombing is a bit too exhausting, and the dribble is just a blue low-body dribble.

He wants to get a triple-double, but he must also win, otherwise it will be the same as a brush.

Therefore, improving the technology must also be considered.

When these three pieces can be improved, what he can achieve next season may not be to get a few more triple-doubles, but to hit "Big O" Oscar Robertson's season-average triple-double!

Already paying attention, he turned on the krypton gold system and scanned back and forth on the blue and purple skill interfaces.

Soon, he found a good and cheap target.

Chapter 898 Rebound Master (Dejounte Murray)

There are many skills to improve rebounding, but most have height requirements.

After all, rebounds, a data that has a lot to do with height, generally belong to the team's big players.

But there are also some alternatives, such as Dejounte Murray, Rondo, Kidd, Westbrook, Oscar Robertson.

These also have different levels of skill packs in the krypton gold system.

After Tang Tian screened, he finally chose to exchange for the blue skill rebounder (Dejounte Murray).

Of course there are better ones, but that's at least purple level.

He is now focused on exchanging legends, and it is not worth the loss to consume too much krypton gold in this area.

In contrast, the blue skill that only needs 200 million krypton gold is relatively cost-effective for him.

Rebounder (Dejounte Murray): Add 10% rebound location judgment and 10% card position ability.

Blue's skill attribute bonus is limited, but it is enough for Tang Tian.

He opened the attribute panel and saw that the rebound attributes of the first-level and second-level pages had changed.

The overall rating of rebounds on the first-level page has been increased from 62 to 70;

On the secondary page, offensive rebounds have increased from 44 to 50, and defensive rebounds have increased from 65 to 75.

Tang Tian is a swingman who mainly plays shooting guard. He is 2 meters tall, and he has a height advantage against players at the same position.

With this skill bonus, coupled with the presence of the forwards in the team, it should not be a big problem to get a dozen rebounds in a game.

After redeeming the skills, the plane returned to New Orleans.

The next day, Tang Tian participated in the last training day of the Hard Training Brothers Training Camp.

He's just going through the motions.

Butler and Thompson both went to the Olympics like Tang Tian, ​​and Tang Tian knew his strength.

However, Walker's progress is a bit surprising. This guard, who is impossible to win the championship in Jordan's eyes, has improved by leaps and bounds, much stronger than the same period in history.

It seems that the Hard Training Brothers training camp has helped him a lot.

"You're going to be at your best next season."

Tang Tian said very seriously, and in a very happy tone.

The new season is also Walker's contract year. If Walker can perform well, he is expected to win a big contract for himself.

Among these hard-working brothers, Walker played with him in the NCAA and has the closest relationship.

So he's really happy for Walker.

When it was time to part in the training camp, the few of them started clamoring for the championship again.

Except for Walker, the Mavericks with Butler, the Cavaliers with Irving, the Warriors with Thompson, and the Pelicans with Tang Tian are all favorites to win the new season.

In terms of limelight, they can be regarded as completely overshadowing the Four Heroes of the Wind and Dust.

The training camp for the hard training brothers is over here, and the new season training camp for the Pelicans will start immediately at the New Orleans Arena.
