The toughest man in the NBA

Chapter 26 The Sun Also Rises
The press conference was a bit anticlimactic. After all, compared to Tuman’s arrogance and the praise of his teammates and coaches, the "under-the-table agreement" was obviously more gimmick. The reporters rushed back to write the announcement, leaving a few innocuous questions and then hastily ended up.

The "New York Times" is not the first media to report on this incident. Due to its cautious work style, the "New York Times" often regards itself as a "newspaper of record", and they will strictly verify the accuracy of the news.

Therefore, the timeliness is not as good, but the reliability of the report is very high, so it is often directly used as a news source by other newspapers and news agencies around the world.

The beautiful girl who participated in the press conference this time was obviously played by her paparazzi. This is obviously fake news, because the New York Times and the female reporter received a letter from Sister Tao's lawyer before the press conference was over.

This makes them very passive, because countless media have already begun to cover up the black Tuman and the sun, and everyone believes that the "New York Times", which is known as the "honest and reliable young man", must have obtained ironclad evidence!

Other media, without exception, adopted such an opening:
"According to the "New York Times" reporter, Tuman's draft report was falsified, and he was suspected of signing the second off-table agreement in NBA history with the Suns in order to obtain a maximum salary..."

Seeing the snowball getting bigger and bigger, the "New York Times" had to quickly launch an investigation, and the result was shocking. The whole incident is actually very simple:
Before Tu Man sent out his application for the draft, he had already been reimbursed for his serious injury, and it was impossible for him to participate in the trial training, let alone collect physical test data.

Therefore, the source of data for all scouts is the same, from--

a year ago!

When Tu Man, who graduated from high school, applied for a sports scholarship at Arizona State University, he had to undergo a trial training for the school team, and this physical test report came from the school team archives!

It's impossible for Tu Man to fake it at that time, right?
Don't want to go to college?

As for why the bounce is so different, it can only be understood as:

He is still a child!

Maybe he was nervous, or he didn't eat enough, or he had diarrhea...

After all, Tu Man always played in the air during the NCAA regular season. Although the bounce was not that exaggerated, it was because it was unnecessary. He just jumped around casually and made his opponent cry!
Since it is impossible to falsify the side report, the so-called "under-the-table agreement" naturally cannot stand. The "New York Times" made a decisive decision, and expressed its "sincere apology" to the Phoenix Suns and Tuman on an inconspicuous section the next day, and wrote Announced that the "irresponsible" and "nonsense" female reporter was fired.

The "New York Times" has admitted that there is no need for the NBA to intervene, but the bad impact of this matter has been irreversible. After all, it is impossible for people who have been watching lace news for a long time to read the seriousness of the "New York Times" every day. Another boring "gray lady"!

What's more, many unscrupulous media saw that the "under-the-table agreement" could no longer be hyped, so they started to hype "Tu Man's ultimate mystery of claiming the fifth position"...

All in all, Tu Man is not a good person!
After all, such news is what the American people like to hear.

An undrafted pick, or a Chinese, who didn't play a formal game, was the first to get the maximum salary before the three rookies since 2008?

Who can bear this, he must have a problem!

In the eyes of the media, a person with this natural taunting physique is like an egg covered in cracks. If a passing fly does not bite, it will be sorry for its worm character!

Sister Tao was so angry that she prepared hundreds of lawyer's letters.

Tu Man was so frightened that he hurriedly dragged Lao Tu home, and the two talked and talked, and finally persuaded her.

With so many lawsuits going on, wouldn't Elder Sister Tao become Aunt Tao?
Besides, being popular these days cannot last long, being both red and black is the kingly way, such as that one.

Tu Man is still counting on a batch of huge endorsements. There is no topicality and no influence. Who would beg you with dollars?

So the sun rose as usual, and Tu Man was in good health, eating well and waiting for his face to be slapped.

On October 10, the NBA26-2010 season officially began.

There are three opening games, namely:

Heat VS Celtics
Rockets VS Lakers
Suns VS Trail Blazers

The appearance of Tubaru once again ignited Robert Savor's ambition. He gritted his teeth and took out a sum of money, and triggered the luxury tax with tears in his eyes.

In the three months of waiting for the brutality, the Suns poached Hedo Turkoglu from the Raptors, Josh Childress from the Hawks, and re-signed the tall turret Channing Frye , The depth of the lineup is optimized, and Gentry finally doesn't have to play eight-man basketball!

The fans stopped making trouble, kept their eyes open, and just waited for Tu Man to fulfill his talent.

It was the first time for Tu Man to go out with the team. He missed the preseason and didn't even participate in the training camp. It was his first appearance. He didn't know his teammates well. He played the clubs with him in the summer league, including Earl None of them stayed, including Clark.

Fortunately, the bosses of the team are humble gentlemen like Steve Nash and Grant Hill. The locker room is harmonious, but no one asks him to carry his bag.

It's just that the atmosphere in the Rose Garden is very unfriendly. Last season's playoffs, the ambitious Blazers were sent fishing by the Suns in the first round. The league's arrangement of the opening game was more or less provocative.

It was the first time for Tu Man to experience the horror of an away game in the NBA. After all, the arena in Las Vegas is so small, and it quickly became a home game. The fans were too gentle to him.

The violent boos of the Portland Prison made the rookie feel a little uncomfortable. Facing those villains who leaned out like doomsday zombies and barked their teeth and claws, Tu Man's hands were a little tight.

Nash saw his embarrassment, patted his buttocks and said:
"What, a little nervous?"

Tu Man grinned:
"No, I feel too excited!"

Nash saw through his sternness, smiled and said:
"Don't worry, I'll pass you a few good shots later and blow them up! After all, you are going to become a real man of the ultimate mystery!"

Tu Man hammered his chest and roared:
"no problem!"

According to the NBA's practice, the team leader made his final appearance and was welcomed by his teammates.

Although Tu Man has the highest salary in the team, his qualifications are still young, and the leader of the sun is undoubtedly Steve Nash, he is the soul of the fire phoenix!
So Tu Man was arranged to appear first, which was another status symbol.

Slowly walking out of the player tunnel, the boos all over the sky were like a festive salute, Tu Man walked slower and slower, and began to enjoy the atmosphere. This is the NBA!
Tu Man walked to the position guided by the light circle, raised his head, narrowed his eyes, and slowly opened his arms, like a king, as if he was accepting the worship of his subjects...

Gentry laughed "Hey" and turned to Su Mait and said:

"This kid has such a big heart!"

After playing five summer league games, Su Maite almost became a fan of Tuman. Looking at the arrogant giant in the light and shadow, he felt more and more manic boos, and subconsciously said:

"He's a born superstar..."
