NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 12 Closing the No. [-] pick doesn't make me feel special

"Hey Hammer, do you have any special feelings about blocking the No. [-] pick? Do you feel like you've become a star?" a reporter asked.

"Barefoot star?"

Li Ba looked at his feet, laughed at himself, and said to the reporters with his chin raised: "My feeling is that if I am given a chance, I can do better than before. In addition, blocking the No. [-] pick is not It doesn't make me feel special because he's just a rookie, a skinny rookie, he's nothing. An inside man like him, I can carry him with one arm."

"Oh!!!!" Several reporters exclaimed.

Crazy, this undrafted pick, this is their only feeling.

"So, whose fault do you think it was to lose?" another reporter asked.

"It's not my fault anyway." Li Ba laughed.

"Someone said just now that you once said that you would be the most underrated undrafted pick in NBA history, so let me tell you that Brad Miller and Ben Wallace are the best undrafted picks, and you have the confidence to surpass them Really?" asked a third reporter.

"Yes."

This joke that he said last night when he was upset, now Li Ba admits it seriously, what he wants now is a gimmick.

"Do you think you've been treated unfairly in the draft?" the last reporter asked.

"Yes, I didn't get any trial opportunities. All the teams rejected me based on an incomplete scouting report."

Li Ba said bluntly.

The four reporters were satisfied, and immediately left the stadium to write their news content.

"Li Ba, quickly, put on your shoes."

At this time, Chen Hong ran back panting, and gave Li Ba a new pair of Reebok sneakers.

"This?" Li Ba was stunned, the two were not familiar with each other.

"Li Ba, I didn't write a report for you last time, so take it as a gift, and I will definitely write for you this time." Chen Hong said seriously.

"That's fine."

Li Ba is also not polite, last time Chen Hong really made a slip of the tongue and said he would write an article for him.

"Does it fit? Size 51, if not, I'll change it." Chen Hong asked.

"I just happen to be wearing this size, thank you Chen Hong." Li Ba sat on the ground, smiling while putting on his shoes.

"Just fit your feet. If you play ball, your shoes must fit your feet." Chen Hong smiled.

After putting on his shoes, Li Ba jumped a few times, nodded and said, "Not bad."

"Hammer, can we talk now?" Wilder Ross said at this time, with Hall beside him.

"Yes." After answering, Li Ba explained to Chen Hong: "They are managers."

"Agents are very important. Be cautious when signing contracts. You can sign a temporary contract first. If you are not capable enough, you can change at any time." Chen Hong reminded.

Nodding his head, Li Ba had a chat with the two of them on the spot, while Chen Hong was on the sidelines giving advice.

"NBA agents need a wide network of contacts, and every team needs to know people, otherwise they will be limited when trading in the future, so be careful."

Chen Hong reminded again.

Li Ba finally chose Wilder and signed a temporary visa with him in the park.This is a temporary contract with a salary of [-] US dollars, and Wilder is responsible for finding a team for him and signing it.

In the United States, the average person does not even need a doctor, but accountants and lawyers are absolutely necessary.If it's an industry like sports and entertainment, add an agent.

After signing the contract, he told Wilder about Frank and said to him: "This is an opportunity, I hope you can do something more."

"Don't worry, I'll go to Phoenix right away." Wilder said excitedly.

He has been in the industry for almost ten years, but he has not found any good players. In his opinion, this Chinese is backed by China, even if he has no strength, as long as the hype starts, the commercial interests will be enough for him.

"Do you want me to arrange a place to stay for you? You can't live here all the time." He asked.

"Let's talk about it in a few days. There is no problem in summer now, and I don't have much money at hand." Shaking his head, Li Ba said.

After Wilder left, Li Ba dragged Chen Hong to the fence.The two are about the same age, and Chen Hong is only 25 years old. He just graduated from university not long ago, and they quickly chatted together.

"Li Ba, if you don't have a chance here, have you considered going back to China to play in the CBA?" Chen Hong asked.

"I thought about it before I came here, and I called several teams to consult, but there was no chance. You heard it just now, Frank may give me a chance. I want to try again in the United States, and I don't want to mess around." Li Ba shook his head.

After chatting for more than half an hour, Chen Hong left, and then a deliveryman delivered ten pairs of sneakers. After receiving the goods, Li Ba found a place in the park to continue training.

The bullfight with Daozi was not interesting, but the ball with Bosh really made him realize the role of locking technology.

He knew very well that the most critical part of the block was the quick jump after being fooled, otherwise it would be too late.

His nerve reaction speed is average, just passing the explosive force and bullet speed, the victory is won by the quickness of the jump, and he thinks he may even jump earlier than Bosh.

The reason is simple. When the ball rose rapidly, Bosh's feet might not have left the ground. It was his hands that made the ball rise, and at that time he jumped up immediately.

Just because he could jump faster than Bosh, in his slower jumping speed, caught up with Bosh.

Of course, if Bosh makes another fake move at this time, he will definitely be shaken, and there is no way to save him.

At this time, he was training desperately in the park, and the media had already exposed what happened in Rock Park.

"The magical block cover, facing the so-called most underrated undrafted pick in the history of the league, the No. [-] pick in the first round, is he a parallel import?"

"The undrafted pick said he wanted to surpass Big Ben, and he pointed out that the league's draft rules are unfair!"

"I bet this undrafted pick is worth a second-round pick. If he's not worth it, the No. [-] pick isn't worth it either."

"Suns Coach: That was a ridiculous scouting report that lied to everyone!"

The media followed suit and reported a lot, not only because the person involved was the No. [-] pick in the first round, but what was even more exciting was that there was a little emperor next to him.

"Big Ben, that undrafted pick said he would surpass you. Do you have anything to say?" A reporter found Ben Wallace who was on vacation in Miami.

"Let him advance to the league." Daben didn't say much. He was also an undrafted pick, so he didn't want to hit Li Ba too much.

"Mr. Rowe, will what happened today affect the contract that the Raptors gave to Bosh?" A reporter approached Raptors general manager Rowe.

"Of course not, Chris was just careless. We have already contacted Chris. He had a bad stomach yesterday and had some physical problems. The undrafted pick was lucky, and we don't regret choosing Chris."

Rowe's words let Bosh, who was far away in New York, heaved a sigh of relief.
