At the press conference after the game, Wang Zelin was surprisingly not too pretentious.
It's surprising because Wang Zelin's performance tonight was absolutely magical, contributing super data of 50 20 5 5, the only one in history!
Such a powerful performance may never be seen again.
However, Wang Zelin, who performed like this, seemed particularly perfunctory when interviewed at the post-match press conference.
The reporters were a little confused.
After scoring such god-level data, don't you want to use the press conference to show off...
How is this still the hot and coquettish young man in their impression?
There is something fishy about the cliff!
Regarding Wang Zelin's puzzling behavior, reporters quickly realized that something was wrong, and when the uncrowned kings transformed into Sherlock Holmes, they discovered something fishy.
So, the next morning, fans on social media blew up Wang Zelin's 50-20 score.
An equally explosive piece of news also quickly occupied the top of the hot searches.
"50 20, first in history!"
"The future number one in the league? No, the number one is now!"
"Shocking! An unknown Chinese player actually did that kind of thing in the garage after the game..."
"As we all know, an excellent basketball player still works hard off the court, practicing ball handling and breakthroughs day after day."
"I was at the scene, and I saw with my own eyes that Wang got into a Hummer, and then the car drove around all night and didn't stop."
"It is said that Wang was targeted by the Kardashian sisters after the game. Doesn't he know the horror of the NBA's best defensive family?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, maybe Wang will become the next Odom... I'm so jealous of the talent!"
One thing to say, when seeing the comments from these netizens on the Internet, Wang Zelin felt...
Gossip really does not distinguish between races.
But then again, if you put aside the prejudicial comments about himself, such as ball control, breakthrough, and screaming, and just look at the previous comments praising his performance on the field, then he is still very happy to see it.
…
The next afternoon,
A call from Zhou Yang,
Wang Zelin quickly answered the call.
It turns out that last night, after he performed a perfect comeback with a sky hook, his name once again set off a wave of craze among fans around the world.
Especially on the other side of the ocean, among the Asian fan groups, his influence has been further strengthened.
As a result, three national brands, Anta, Li Ning, and Peak, approached Wang Zelin again. Even Nike and Adidas, which he had previously rejected, shamelessly came forward.
Make money, don’t be shabby!
Moreover, in addition to sports brands, other brands, such as sports drinks and daily necessities, have also come to seek cooperation.
It can be said that, looking at the various endorsement contracts in front of him, as long as he nodded and signed, piles of money would fall on his head.
However, at this juncture,
Instead, he became calmer.
There is only one richest man in the world,
But his goal has never been to become the richest man. Therefore, when wealth accumulates to a certain level, it becomes a series of numbers.
Even if calculated in terms of dollars now, his assets have exceeded 100 million. If he really wants to seek wealth and status, he can retire directly now and invest in Byte, Didi, Bitcoin based on some memories of future generations...
In terms of making money, any of the above is better than what he is playing now.
However, affected by the late-stage symptoms of lazy cancer in his previous life, he felt that all these were too tiring. In fact, it cannot be said that he was tired, mainly because he was not interested.
After resurrecting his life, Wang Zelin has no intention of making money just for the sake of making money. As long as the money is enough, he prefers to devote himself to the industry that interests him.
For example, now, let’s continue this hobby of basketball to the end.
In fact, while climbing to the top of the world's basketball world, he also bought a few houses and speculated on a few GUT coins. After he became successful and famous, he made a net worth of billions or even tens of billions, and then went to the entertainment industry to become a woman with unspoken rules.
star……
Phew, I will guide female stars in filming, and I can also enjoy the addiction of male protagonists.
After all, judging from the length of service of a basketball player, he can only play for 20 years at most, and he will be around 35 when he retires. There is a saying that a man becomes a flower when he is 40, and the period between 30 and 40 is exactly the golden age of a man. It is true.
It's just right...
However, because his understanding of future trends can only be limited to 2020, he has long memorized in a small notebook those TV shows, movies, and variety shows that are relatively popular in the entertainment industry.
When he thought of all the chaos in the entertainment industry in his previous life, as a flower of the motherland who at least received a positive education, he felt that it was necessary for him to rectify it.
Of course, that is all in the offseason. He will consider whether to open an entertainment company next summer. As for now, he will focus on the contracts in front of him.
"Uncle Zhou, please don't accept other endorsements yet. It will be New Year's Eve in a few days. The first thing to consider now is the renewal of my sneaker contract. By the way, what does Anta say?"
Putting down a sports drink endorsement contract, Wang Zelin looked up at Zhou Yang and asked about the progress of the sneaker contract renewal.
"Zelin, here, this is the final plan given by Anta, 180 million meters of gold in 5 years, which can be said to be full of sincerity. What do you think?" Zhou Yang said.
"Hey, you are so willing to spend money?"
He took over the contract in surprise. Zhou Yang had already arrived home in advance, and all the important information was marked for his convenience.
"Haha, you don't know how popular you are outside right now? In terms of money, Anta should have gotten the upper limit they can give. If the contract is successfully renewed, with your current popularity and on-court performance, we can still
Further explore the space for sharing from sales."
Zhou Yang smiled and complimented.
"Okay, Anta didn't say when the contract would be renewed."
"I have negotiated with them. If we agree to renew the contract, they will do their best to announce the successful renewal of the contract to fans around the world as soon as possible after releasing the new signature sneakers on Christmas."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "It's a good plan, then tell them that I agree."
"Okay, you can prepare for the game with peace of mind. I will go over and contact Anta right away."
At this time, Christmas was just a few days away, and there was not much time. Zhou Yang rushed over immediately. His computer email was full of advertising agency contracts.
…
…
Los Angeles.
"Mr. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, just last night, Wang used a near-perfect performance of 55 points, 20 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 blocks and 1 steal to win another victory for the Trail Blazers! He even used similar sky hooks many times during the game.
attack method, what is your evaluation of this?"
Not surprisingly, the media found Kareem Abdul-Jabbar after the game.
As soon as he left the house, he saw a large number of long-awaited reporters rushing towards him like hungry wolves. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was stunned for a moment, but he thought of the game he saw last night and a phone call in the morning, and quickly understood
He knew the purpose of these reporters.
To be honest, geniuses are proud.
As a super player at the lowest level in NBA history, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is naturally proud, and of course he also has capital to be proud of.
6 regular season MVPs are enough to prove his dominance as a player!
Therefore, he has never been a good-tempered person, otherwise he would not openly quarrel with Jordan in front of social media.
However, only when you truly set foot on the top of the mountain can you understand the loneliness behind the glory.
Since the development of NBA, there have been too many amazing stunts.
The most famous one is Jordan's fadeaway jump shot, which is as beautiful as a painting.
Among the later players, Kobe was undoubtedly the one who learned the essence and even stepped out of his own new world. Apart from the limitations of his physical talent, at the technical level, Kobe's backwards ability was no less than Jordan's back then.
There are also Allen Iverson's butterfly step, McGrady's pull-up, Duncan's 45-degree rebound, and King Nuo's golden rooster independence. There are still some people who have learned the essence, but only the sky hook!
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's Sky Hook was undoubtedly a beautiful sight in NBA history.
It's just that after Kareem Abdul-Jabbar retired, the Sky Hook skill was completely forgotten. It was somewhat similar to Chamberlain's rocket block, which was also lost.
This thing is a real talent for eating!
If you don't have absolute talent, you can't figure it out, because it's impossible to learn this level of magic through hard work.
When Kareem Abdul-Jabbar discovered that there was no successor to the Sky Hook, and even in the small ball era, the hook skill was about to be lost in the league, his mood at that time was probably the most uncomfortable.
But there is no way around it. The development of modern basketball is constantly changing every year.
Although no one knows which development trend is correct, one thing is very clear.
If you can achieve good results, you must make the right choice.
This is also the result that people often talk about, the theory of relativity.
Nowadays, the hook technique has been gradually eliminated in an environment that favors offense with reduced physical fitness and confrontation. So much so that in the small ball era, the hook has become a rare and rare offensive method.
As the pinnacle representative in the field of hooks, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar certainly does not want this offensive method to be lost!
Last night, Wang Zelin used the sky hook during his crazy scoring night, which gave him hope of reviving the hook again. Therefore, in front of the media, he also spoke highly of Wang Zelin:
"Wang is the most talented young man I have ever seen, not even Wilt Chamberlain can compare with him!
If you pay attention, you will carefully find that he has a maturity and stability that should not be expected at this age. The most important thing is that when he comes back every summer, he will let us see his progress.
I think he will become the next face of the league!"
The day after the game between the Trail Blazers and Mosaic, the media unanimously focused on Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who was staying at home in Los Angeles.
Everyone wants to hear what the man who ranks first in the all-time scoring list thinks of Wang Zelin's re-engraving of Sky Hook?
But what they never expected was that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's final evaluation would be so shocking!
Surpass Chamberlain?!
The next face of the Alliance?!
In this case, I am afraid that only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar would dare to say it...
"I don't know what the Blazers' management is thinking, but if it were me, I would probably wake up laughing in the middle of the night!
The Trail Blazers made a lot of money...Sorry, please forgive me for saying this again! However, it is really hard to imagine that they can actually use only the eighth pick in a draft that cannot be called a big year.
, to choose a super center who is comparable to Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and O'Neal, who is a mythical beast, is simply incredible!
Finally, I don’t know what the Toronto Raptors management will think at this time, but if I were a Raptors fan, I would definitely send my regards to the parents of the management cordially...
Oh, my God! Look what the Raptors did? What they did in the 2012 draft was no less than when the Trail Blazers let Jordan go, the Hornets let go Kobe, and the Magic let O'Neal go to save money.
A super stupid thing of almost the same level! This tmd is simply a crime!"
December 23,
Stephen A. Smith, a well-known basketball commentator on ESPN, highly praised the Blazers management in a sports channel program, but in the end his focus was on criticizing the Raptors management.
Talk about the Trail Blazers letting go of Jordan, the Hornets letting go of Kobe, the Magic letting go of O'Neal...
From an objective perspective, the examples he cited above are all hindsight.
However, considering the heights that the three of them later achieved, not many people would care about what exactly happened that year.
People in the future will only remember one thing, that is, the Raptors management made an unforgivable stupid decision in the 2012 draft - letting Wang Zelin go!
As long as Wang Zelin's career becomes more and more brilliant in the future, the Raptors management can basically book a historical pillar of shame in advance, and there will be countless fights waiting for them in the future.
At this point, A Smith has captured the inner thoughts of the fans very well, and with a little guidance, this topic quickly exploded on the Internet.
When gods fight, mortals suffer.
Maybe the Raptors management never thought that the flames of war would burn back to them again.
Hey, wait a minute, why did they say "again"?
Here are the pioneers.
As A. Smith said, after watching the game, Trail Blazers general manager Nell Orsi was in a happy mood for the rest of the day and had no intention of working at all.
Finally, after he dialed a number, his agitated mood calmed down a little:
"Mr. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, are you interested in serving as an assistant coach for the Trail Blazers? Like you, I hope to see the great skill of Sky Hook reappear in the league!"
