Chapter 17 The underestimated Tanhua, a bet with ESPN
The opponent scored four points in the opening game, but I didn't get a single point. Iverson and the others didn't look very good-looking. Except for Robinson, they all wanted to give Xiao Tian a blow. This guy is really too hated.
Kobe played very comfortably. Compared with the Lakers' summer league, the two cooperations with Xiao Tian were absolutely unprecedented. In the summer league, Allem made it very clear to himself that the ball was in his hands, so don't pass it to his teammates.
The two sides fought back and forth without any hesitation. Iverson's offensive firepower was indeed fierce, but their defense was also rubbish. Under their defense, all five teammates on Xiao Tian's side scored. The person who scored the most was Kobe, who scored 20 points, and Iverson also scored 20 points on the opposite side. Both sides fought exhausted, but Xiao Tian's side won.
Jerry Stackhouse's mood now is as if he has been raped. Iverson is a point guard, and he thought he was Xiao Tian's type, but this is the first time he cooperates with the opponent to know that he is really a point guard.
But now this five-on-five game is not the summer league. There are less than half of the players on both sides, and there is only one on my side. But even so, I still lost the game by 10 points. On the field field, 10 points is a huge difference.
In this game, Xiao Tian only took two shots and scored 5 points, but he sent 11 assists. Among Kobe's 20 points, 12 points were completed by his assists. Iverson, who was facing Xiao Tian, scored 20 points, but only had one assist.
Both sides were exhausted after the fight. Iverson took everyone to the villa he just bought in Philadelphia and took a bath. This villa looked really luxurious. Although in the eyes of Xiao Tian, a traveler, the style was a bit rustic, but for Daben and other soy sauce party members, this villa was simply paradise. When he would be able to own such a house, it was an extremely distant thing to think about.
In the end, Xiao Tian was the only one left in Iverson’s villa, and everyone else left. Iverson lit a cigar, took a deep breath, and said, "Heaven, I really don’t understand. Kobe is your opponent. Why did you make him a wedding dress for this game?"As a result, Kobe became the protagonist on Xiao Tian's side, while Xiao Tian became a supporting role, which was completely different from the script in Iverson's own mind.
Xiao Tian finished the orange juice in front of him, "It tastes good, Allen. I'm a point guard, not a shooting guard. Although Kobe was my defeat, he was my teammate in that game. Since he is a teammate, he must be trusted. Otherwise, with our lineup, do you think I can beat you all alone?"
Iverson was silent. It was not the first time I heard Xiao Tian's words. I had heard other people say it a long time ago, but Iverson never took it seriously. It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on those guys.
Maybe everyone chooses a different basketball path.You can't change others, and others can't change yourself.
The next day, the field game between Xiao Tian and the others was also on the news.Although not the front page.
"Showdown on the Wild Field: No. [-] Rick Defeats No. [-] Scholar, No. [-] Becomes a Foil" This is the headline of the Philadelphia Sports News. This game did not attract a lot of attention, but it was enough to make people write about it.
Ever since, following this news, experts from all walks of life came out to criticize Xiao Tian, especially McNelly, a basketball expert from ESPN, who vowed that Xiao Tian was about to reveal his true colors, and he would be completely crushed by other rookies in the regular season. He would never score more than 15 points. Although his basketball talent was very high, his Asian identity still limited his development.
As soon as this report came out, the entire public opinion circle was in an uproar again, and the reporters also professionally found Xiao Tian who was in the Philadelphia orphanage.
"Oh, yes, then do you want to make a bet on McNelly, if I score more than 15 points in any game in the regular season, Mr. McNelly dares to run around Stanley Park naked. If I lose, how about I run naked and stand on the Lions Gate Bridge for a day?"
Xiao Tian's exclusive interview made the public opinion even more intense. The melon-eaters were eagerly hoping that McNelly would agree, but McNelly was scared at this time, but the executives of ESPN didn't care about it. This is the selling point, this is the sales volume.
This bet made Xiao Tian popular again. Of course, most people are not optimistic about Xiao Tian, except for fans in Vancouver and Philadelphia, others are skeptical about Xiao Tian.
In this intensifying news, Jerry West also completed another transaction, using several soy sauce players and the Pistons in exchange for their rookie Ratliff last year.
This guy scored 17 points and 5 rebounds in 4 minutes of playing time for the Pistons last season, and he still has great potential.The most important thing is that he is cheap, less than 100 million US dollars a year, and among the few soy sauces, only one has a higher salary than him.
Before I knew it, it was October, and I played a few games in the preseason. Xiao Tian's performance was still the same. In the first few preseason games, he scored 10 points and 18 assists. His performance can be said to be quite good. McNelly is still stubborn. This is just a preseason game.
Big Ben also stayed as expected by Xiao Tian. He signed a three-year basic salary with the Grizzlies, but the last two years are team options.The current Grizzlies lineup is such a big center, Ratliff, power forward Rodgers, Finley, small forward Robinson, shooting guard Greg Anthony, point guard Xiao Tian, Mucci Norris, and a big name recruited by Jerry West himself-Dominique Wilkins, this is one of the most embarrassing players. His salary this season is less than 30 US dollars, which is really shabby when you think about it.This is because he just came from Europe to help Hirapanaxienax win the championship and was awarded the mvp. Of course, the biggest problem is that his physical function has declined. He relies on dunks to score, and his scoring ability has plummeted. Joining the Grizzlies has Xiao Tian's go-between. Maybe he can score a few more points, otherwise, he will have to retire.
