Travel back to be a superstar

Chapter 120 Yi Jianlian Enters the Internet

After the game, the team did not stay.Go straight back to Los Angeles.Because the 20th is the official match.Wharton didn't let Jiang Dashan play more, but also to better fight against the first opponent, the Clippers!However, due to official NBA reasons, Jiang Dashan still has to increase his playing time in the China game, which gives the Clippers enough time to figure out Jiang Dashan's ways.

Lina and Xie Fengfeng came to Los Angeles together. O'Neill bought Jiang Dashan a 10-story duplex 2 minutes away from the arena, although Jiang Dashan repeatedly emphasized that he should save money.The house O'Neill bought for Jiang Dashan was not too big, with two bedrooms and two living rooms on the first floor, three rooms on the second floor and a huge terrace.The total area is 3 square meters, and Jiang Dashan spent 220 million US dollars.This was O'Neill's advance payment of three months' salary from Jiang Dashan's salary, and O'Neill also advanced 200 of it.The annual salary is 80 million, and one quarter is only about 950 million. After taxation, only about 240 million is left.However, the luxury of the house is unimaginable, and Lina and Xie Fengfeng fell in love with it as soon as they arrived.

The next day, Jiang Dashan's new home in Los Angeles ushered in a new guest, Linda. Seeing Xie Fengfeng's relationship with her, he took another step forward.Jiang Dashan originally wanted to push Xie Fengfeng back, but Xie Fengfeng told him that this semester, the school arranges an internship, so there is no need to attend classes.Here, Xie Fengfeng asked Jiang Dashan to entertain the two of them well because Jiang Dashan had stayed at his house for half a year without reason.

Seeing that the 2017-2018 season is about to start, every team has entered the final replenishment or training stage. On October 10, the Lakers announced a two-day holiday.Jiang Dashan took Lina, Xie Fengfeng, and Linda out for a day together.Jiang Dashan is now more famous than before. Although fans in Los Angeles prefer Lonzo or Ingram, there are still many fans looking for him to take pictures on the street.

On the 19th, several unexpected guests came to Jiang Dashan's house, Zhou Qi, Ding Yanyuhang, and Yi Jianlian.

All three of them came to the door with gifts.Zhou Qi performed well in the Rockets' preseason, averaging 20 minutes per game, scoring 8.5 points, 5 rebounds and 0.9 blocks.Ding Yanyuhang's preseason with the Mavericks was smooth, averaging 12 minutes, 5 points and 3 rebounds per game.The two officially became part of the team's rotation.

Zhou Qi's youthfulness has long since faded, replaced by a determined face.He treats Yi Jianlian with respect, instead of thinking that Lao Tzu is the best in the world like the Olympic Games, which is unreasonable and arrogant.The most important thing is that after a summer of training, Zhou Qi successfully gained 10KG in weight, his confrontation ability has been greatly improved, and his shooting ability has also improved a lot.It seems that he has grown into one of the core figures of the new generation of Chinese basketball.

Xiaoding's growth is obvious to all.

But Jiang Dashan was quite puzzled, why did these three people come to his home?

"Uh, I'm glad you guys can come, but, as the saying goes, go to the Three Treasures Hall for everything." Jiang Dashan said bluntly.

"We mainly came to see you. Another thing, I need your help to refer to something." Zhou Qi spoke first.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Dashan basically guessed the intention of the three of them, looked at Yi Jianlian, and asked directly.

"I'm almost 31 years old now. I have also had a bright performance in the NBA. I really want to return to the NBA. However, there is only one company willing to give me a contract." Yi Jianlian smiled wryly.It can be seen that there are 3 Chinese players joining the NBA this year, but Yi Jianlian is not included among them, which stimulates him a lot.

"Let me guess, is it your old club Nets?" Jiang Dashan asked Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian nodded, "Yes. That's why I'm confused."

Zhou Qi and Xiao Ding looked at the two of them, and said, "We are not just asking you for your opinion, we also want to learn from you. After all, you have been in the NBA. We hope to get some advice. I am not talking about daily training, but, as a Chinese player, how to gain a firm foothold in the NBA. Brother Lian has been in the NBA for a long time. After you are cut by the Cavaliers, you can re-sign a big contract. We don't want to gradually become water fountain players in the NBA."

Jiang Dashan nodded, the two of them really matured a lot.In the NBA, there are indeed too many places that need attention.

Yi Jianlian looked at Jiang Dashan, hoping to hear his thoughts.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Dashan replied to Yi Jianlian, "Maybe I'm not an expert in this field. I think I can call O'Neill over and let's discuss it together."

Everyone nodded, and Jiang Dashan called O'Neill.O'Neill arrived at Jiang Dashan's house half an hour later.The three were very happy to see O'Neal. After all, this was a man of the NBA.

After Jiang Dashan's brief introduction, O'Neal did not give a clear opinion, but asked Yi Jianlian a question, "Yi, you have also played in the NBA for several years. In your opinion, if you log in to the NBA now, what do you think is the point for you to gain a foothold in the NBA?"

O'Neal glanced at Zhou Qi and Xiao Ding, and said to them, "I can also ask you this question. Where do you think you can base yourself in the NBA, or where the football team is?"

Seeing that everyone bowed their heads and remained silent, O'Neal began and ended, "Comparing J, his position in the NBA is easy for team owners to see. First, his market background is the huge Chinese market. However, this is definitely not the key to J's foothold in the NBA. The second point is the key. J has superb speed, jumping and shooting ability that are most needed in the NBA. He has a very good sense of assists, and he can also be a key player. Enough hard work. Now, the Lakers dare not say that he is the absolute main force, but as long as his words are correct, there will be basically no objection, because he is currently the hardest working person on the Lakers."

Having said that, the three of them reacted instantly.

Zhou Qi started first, "My physical fitness is not bad." Before finishing speaking, O'Neill immediately interrupted him, "NONONO, I don't think your physical condition is very good. Compared with Yi Jianlian, your physical condition is too poor."

O'Neal turned to look at Yi Jianlian, "However, since you entered the NBA, your body and other conditions have deteriorated, which is why you were abandoned."

Yi Jianlian nodded.

This is Jiang Dashan interjecting, "Zhou Qi, your body is really good. O'Neal is only asking you according to NBA standards. My suggestion is, first, strengthen your body. Second, play your advantage. Your height and arm length allow you to play well on the defensive end. Your rebounding and blocking shots are a highlight, and you must make good use of it. Third, your shooting ability is unstable in the NBA. BA shooting in the NBA will cost you at least 5 points. Therefore, you need to practice shooting more. Identify your positioning, strengthen your body, and your mid-range and long-range shooting ability. Finally, a standardized diet! Be sure to stay away from all kinds of junk food! This is my advice to you two.” At the same time, Jiang Dashan also said this to Xiaoding.Although there are differences in the styles of the two, the current style of the league is like this: confrontation, long-range shooting, and defense.

"What about me?" Yi Jianlian was a little disappointed at this moment.

"My suggestion to you is to be an excellent role player first." O'Neal began.

"What do you mean?" Yi Jianlian was puzzled.

"You can do everything in the CBA, but in the NBA, nothing is outstanding."

Yi Jianlian nodded, and what O'Neill said was more pertinent.

"What you need to do, it's actually very simple. Number one, get rid of your past. You were a high pick in the NBA. Now, let all that pride go. You're a young kid who just came into the league."

Yi Jianlian smiled, then nodded.

"Second, you need to find a point. For example, a defensive gate; or a mid-range killer; or an outside shooter. Can you do that?" O'Neal continued to ask Yi Jianlian.

"My shooting ability is good in the CBA. The Lakers played in the preseason last year. The pressure was too great. I wanted to join the NBA so much, so I didn't show it."

"What did the Nets promise you?"

"Center or power forward."

"Well, Mozkov is not in good shape right now. He is completely a fake import. He is unlikely to be reused. His scoring ability is low, and his defense is also terrible. This is his disadvantage. Yi, if you can maintain your shooting ability in the CBA and become a good defensive player, I believe that you can take the first step very well! The defensive end is good enough, you can score when you have a chance, and you will slowly emerge! Got it?"

"So, what's your suggestion?"

"Boldly sign the contract! I like you!"
