Wang Zelin has known for a long time that every athlete will eventually retire one day.
However, when the teammates who were fighting side by side a few days ago announced their farewell to the basketball court today, they couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
Among his current teammates, Sun Yue can still contribute a few blocks on the court, but his shoulder injury keeps recurring, and he doesn't know whether he will be able to have the same level of skills in the World Championships two years later.
There is also Chen Jianghua, who has scored 10 points in a single game many times in this Olympics. Originally, he had too many high hopes. Fans expected him to become "Chinese Iverson" and China's first world-class defender.
If there hadn't been that damn injury, and he had been tempered and grown, maybe all of this could have come true.
Unfortunately, this Olympics was his last chance to shine, and Chen Jianghua was never called up to the national team again.
He is only 23 years old!
After the 2008 golden generation gradually withered away, although there is still Yi Jianlian to support them, it is a bit difficult to deal with it when I think of my national team teammates becoming Guo Ailun and Zhou Qi~~~!
At London International Airport, Wang Zelin was bidding farewell to his teammates one by one.
It's rare for his parents to go abroad. If they want to spend a few days in the UK, Wang Zelin naturally has to stay with him. Otherwise, when the NBA starts, his parents don't want to settle in the United States, and they will really spend more time apart than together.
"Brother Yu, Brother Peng, you are only 29, why don't you play for a few more years? I will take you to compete for medals in the Rio Olympics four years later!"
After hugging Wang Qizhuba one by one, Wang Zelin couldn't help but persuade him.
"Come on, we are not young after all, just let us go. Besides, you still have A Lian and Hua Zi to accompany you, so you are afraid that the national team will not be there!"
Regarding Wang Zelin's words, Zhu Fangyu was noncommittal, but her refusal was still firm.
"Okay! I wish you a safe journey!"
"Great Sage, remember to take good care of your health. After the World Championships in two years, I will still have to rely on you for outside defense."
"And Hua Zi, remember to strengthen your strength training when you go back, otherwise you will die if you still play breakthrough style with your body!"
Regarding Wang Zelin's instructions, Sun Yue just responded perfunctorily and got on the plane, but Chen Jianghua was thinking seriously.
"It's not necessary. To practice strength, you need to build muscle. I'm worried that it will affect my speed."
Chen Jianghua showed reluctance.
"Why is it not necessary? I know your idol is Iverson, but he originally played rugby. In addition to his speed, his body is also very powerful. You only have speed. Learning from Iverson's breakthroughs is to play football."
The Seven Injury Fist, hurt others first, hurt yourself first."
"All right!"
Thanks to Wang Zelin's heroic performance in the Olympics when he joined the national team for the first time, all his teammates recognized his future potential and his status as the number two player after Yi Jianlian, so Chen Jianghua took his words seriously.
"Go away, see you next time. If you don't get better, I will let Brother Yao kick you out of the national team."
"Okay, okay, why don't I go back to practice? Goodbye!"
Chen Jianghua also knew that Wang Zelin was joking with him, so he boarded the plane with a smile.
"Oh, I really hope you can listen!"
After talking so much to Chen Jianghua, I completely feel that he is only 23 and should still be saved, but whether he practices or not is his business. Anyway, I have tried my best.
After seeing off Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhizhi, Wang Zelin went back with his parents and began to discuss the strategy for a seven-day trip to the UK.
"After the whole summer
Sadness is not better
Driving on an endless road
I feel like I'm leaving myself
Can't finish a song
Tiredness still leaves dark circles under the eyes
~~~
"
It is now August 20th, the transition from summer to autumn.
More than ten days have passed since the men's basketball game. Wang Zelin accompanied his parents until the 13th and watched the Olympic closing ceremony, then sent his parents back to his hometown of Fujian.
However, after returning home this time, Wang Zelin gave basically all the money he earned to his parents and asked them to buy a house.
Yes, just buy a house.
In his previous life, Wang Zelin was a fat man and had no female votes. Why should he expect more from him? However, he was still very sure of one thing.
That’s the price!
Houses are like chasing a girl. If you like it, you should take action. Don't expect that there will be something better later. If you don't take action early, you will have to watch the house prices rise higher and higher in the future.
Therefore, later people once said: The best time to buy a house was ten years ago, and the second best time is now.
Besides, Wang Zelin feels that if he doesn't take the political path like Yao Ming after retiring, it would be a good choice to reluctantly become a charterer.
Drinking wine every day, walking the dog, and making phone calls to collect the rent every day. It was a pretty happy life.
If it weren't for the fact that his pocket limited his performance, he would have wanted to buy a house in the urban areas of Beijing, Magic, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
No, after finishing this season, I will ask Uncle Zhou to accept more advertisements. Next year, I must go to Xiongan to buy some land.
…
On August 24, Wang Zelin and Tom Bruce, who had finally completed all their business activities, flew directly to Portland, USA.
As early as after the draft, Wang Zelin had asked Zhou Yang to choose an address near the Rose Garden Arena, and he went straight to his new home as soon as he got off the plane.
This is a private villa. The most important thing is that it has a private basketball court and weight room, which can satisfy Wang Zelin's occasional training at home.
At this time, the NBA schedule for the 2012-13 season was announced as early as mid-July.
This season's preseason will start on October 10th, and the Trail Blazers' first player is the Purple and Gold Los Angeles Lakers, who have just formed the f4 team.
Just on August 11th: Howard and Nash joined the team, and the Lakers formed a new F4 team.
First, Nash officially joined the Lakers as a free agent, and the Lakers acquired the league's No. 1 center, Howard, in a big deal involving four teams.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this point, the Lakers have formed a new f4 combination headed by Nash, Kobe, Gasol and Howard.
Obviously, the Lakers management wants to build a championship-winning lineup for Kobe Bryant one last time while he is still at his peak.
This operation of the Lakers really makes people imagine endlessly, imagine the revival of the Lakers, imagine Kobe Bryant winning the championship again, imagine that the Lakers can tie their old rival Celtics' record of 17 championships, which is the most in history.
At this time, it had just been three years since Howard led the team to the championship with a single core. Warcraft, who was in his prime, was undoubtedly the number one center in the league that year.
When I think about the fact that I will have to fight against the peak monster next, I am not only nervous but also excited.
If others don’t know it clearly, doesn’t Wang Zelin still know it?
Joining the Lakers was a turning point in Howard's career. After staying in Angel City for a year, he left for Houston. After that, he would no longer be known as "Warcraft" in the world.
Wang Zelin also has a huge ambition in his heart: instead of letting the Sparks lose his position as the number one center due to injury, it is better to squeeze him out himself.
If you have not been baptized by blood, there is no soul in climbing to the top like that.
Presumably Huo Hua prefers this kind of closing ceremony.
There is still a full month and a half left before the preseason, and he has to seize this time well.
Looking at the 10.17 million fans in the system space, Wang Zelin is full of expectations for his further evolution.
Warcraft, right?
The first center, right?
Your strongest challenger is coming!
