Guard With a Knife

When the Chinese men's basketball team stood on the Olympic gold medal podium, the national anthem was played loud and clear, and the whole land of China was filled with joy, and everyone was excited about it.

In essence, this is the greatest counterattack victory in the history of Chinese sports.

Because, before the start of the Olympics, no one dared to believe that the Chinese men's basketball team could stand on the highest podium. At that time, everyone's slogan was to strive for a medal. The Sports Bureau even felt that...after reaching the semi-finals, they could issue a press release to celebrate. After all, before that, the best result of the Chinese men's basketball team in the Olympic Games was to reach the quarter-finals.

But now, the Olympic gold medal has hung on the neck of every Chinese player... Oh, the biggest hero, Du Ge, was absent from the awards ceremony. He was rushed to the best hospital in London.

And this has become the most worrying issue for Duke fans around the world. After all, Marc Gasol hit the most sensitive position.

Fortunately, London's medical level is at the forefront of the world.

They quickly made an authoritative statement, making the rumors of 'the Duke's lower body completely tragic' on the Internet nowhere to hide.

I'm sure there's no damage to his vital organs. He's just had some strained ligaments and soft tissue contusions. If it wasn't for the groin where it pulls two parts of the body, it's a little bit of a problem. He might not even need any treatment. As long as he can hold back the pain.

Dr. Vincent speaks eloquently in front of the media.

Facing the swarm of reporters, he was very expressive. He enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by hundreds of reporters.

Yes, I saw the so-called duchess girls. They were very concerned about Snoopy's injury. What I can guarantee is that they all left with a smile. Not the kind of rumors on the Internet because they couldn't see The cure hopes to choose to break up.

Currently, there are too many rumors on the Internet. Everyone is blatantly saying some sensational and groundless remarks.

Snoopy's parents were very nice. But their concerns at the time made me feel patriarchal in China, because the first question they asked me was: Can my son still have sons? Remember, he It's about sons, not daughters.

...

Frankly speaking, if this guy didn't have the first-hand information about the Duke's injury, who would want to hear him rambling like this? If the reporters hadn't gradually dispersed, he even wanted to talk about his academic achievements and how he was admitted to Harrow School... .

With authoritative news out,

A big stone in the hearts of Chinese fans has finally landed. They're celebrating like crazy and singing like crazy, and you can see the influence of this thing on every street.

For example, one of your frequented bars suddenly puts up a slogan: Celebrate the Olympic gold medal of the men's basketball team, with 50% off all drinks.

For example, a restaurant that had nothing to do with sports suddenly displayed a huge photo of a certain national team player: XX boiled fish, Zhou Peng said it was good to eat.

Yes, the Chinese men's basketball national team has become the hottest top traffic in this hot summer.

Everyone's worth is skyrocketing. Before leaving London, the commercial value of the players of the national team was lacklustre, and the cost of product endorsement was as high as millions, and Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhizhi may be higher.

But now, before attending the Duke's London concert, Guo Ailun told his Du Ge: Now there is a famous company that offered me an endorsement contract worth tens of millions.

Of course, the second half of his sentence is that the Sports Bureau may take a little away.

However, it still made him laugh from ear to ear.

For the improvement of the economic situation of his teammates, Duge is very happy from the bottom of his heart. He hopes everyone is well, especially after this great Olympic journey, the major rewards they have won will stimulate the entire country to pay attention to basketball to a certain extent.

After all, there must be brave men under great rewards. When people know...that as long as you play well, you can get countless wealth and glory, why don't you try your best to improve yourself?

Although the nationwide system cannot be said to be bad, if market-oriented operations are introduced. Let the top players get rich first, and gain more prestige and popularity than entertainment stars, and it will naturally drive the entire industry. And when more and more people join the ranks of professional players, with such a huge population base in China, the possibility of the next Doug may not be high, but what about the next Yi Jianlian? Where is the next Guo Ailun?

If China has 100 stars at the level of Yi and Guo, the competition between them will definitely lead to stronger super players. Driven by these super players, in the future, it may not be impossible to compete with the US team under the FIBA ​​system. Possibilities to compete.

So, look at the overall situation.

Doug is very, very supportive of this reward system.

Of course, as the most important contributor to the men's basketball championship this time, Duge's rewards are unmatched by other players combined.

For example, his sneakers are already selling like crazy. His commercial quotation climbed up again, reaching the first position in history.

For example, countless companies want to do everything possible to give him a luxury car and a luxury house... just to keep in touch with him.

There are even some fraudulent companies offering a scam of having dinner with Doug for one million dollars. And this, there were a lot of responders. Many of them are female stars in the entertainment industry and celebrities in the social circle.

but.

Du Ge did not waver because of this.

He gave Daphne and his mother full authority over business matters, even though everyone now knew that he could walk away with a lot of money as long as he returned to China and walked around casually. But he did not change his itinerary substantially, he just decided to return to China for two days after the London concert, and then return to the United States to start training and other work.

In the past two days, what gave Doug some headaches was not actually that the duchess girls flew to London for physical examination. The biggest thing was Michael Jordan speaking across the ocean.

“…I know he scored 50-something points against Team USA, I watched the game. But, I don’t think his shooting is consistent, and he’s doing high-speed, high-speed shots before almost every shot he makes. The frequency of movement. The players of the US team did not find this problem. If I were defending him, I would never give him such a sufficient warm-up action.

Michael Jordan talked on the show: All the defenders are perfecting his performance. This makes the audience feel: Wow, Snoopy is really omnipotent. After he can play the opponent at high speed and fancy, he can also play the game. Hit the shot. It's really... super powerful...

It has to be said that the vision of the God of Basketball is very vicious.

He did see the nature of the problem.

However, these remarks in the United States are more considered to be Michael Jordan's jealousy and jealousy. Because Doug's achievements in the Olympics completely surpassed him, and Charles Barkley, Reggie Miller and other bitter masters in the 1990s formed the Losers League, and they were madly advocating that Duke Snoopy will become the one who surpassed Michael Jordan. that person'.

The reason why these remarks did not ferment so much before is that everyone felt that Snoopy was still far behind, but after the Olympics, people's original firm trust in Michael Jordan began to be shaken. After all, the little duke stepped on the head of the entire dream team to advance. Although the Dream Ten team had problems of one kind or another in the match against the Chinese team, a win is a win.

And, most importantly: if more than the first four years of your career. As strong as Michael Jordan, in front of Snoopy, he is just a younger brother: four consecutive finals, two consecutive finals MVP, two consecutive regular season MVPs, two consecutive years averaging a triple-double... .

These hard data and hard honors are in front of us. Michael Jordan hadn't even begun to overthrow the Detroit Pistons' Eastern Conference dominance back then.

Therefore, Michael Jordan, who was eager to win, couldn't help but come out and talk.

Although, he likes and admires Snoopy very much. But no matter what you say, you can't surpass my historical status. If it wasn't for old age and frailty, he really wanted to play three comebacks and compete with Duge.

As for the discussions between Michael Jordan and Snoopy, the happiest and happiest people are the people of Illinois.

Because, these two are Bulls players!

To be honest, with the news that the Chinese team won the gold medal in the Olympics, Bulls fans have begun to look forward to surpassing the Lakers and Celtics in the number of championship banners. Currently, they already have eight championship banners hanging high in the United Center arena. Moreover, it is believed that in the near future, a bronze statue of Snoopy will also stand outside the United Center Arena, complementing Michael Jordan.

Gary Foreman has become the most beloved general manager in the history of the Bulls. In fact, in the past three years, he has won two NBA best manager awards in a row. The reason is because he brought Snoopy from New York to Chicago.

Compared with his brilliance and prowess, he deliberately disgusted Snoopy at the beginning. Donny Walsh, who traded Duke Snoopy plus Steve Marbury for Tyrus Thomas, became the most mocked and belittled manager in the history of professional sports. He is basically afraid to show his face in New York now.

A large number of New York fans threatened on the Internet that this historical criminal must be brought to justice.

After all, even an idiot knows how good the Knicks would be if Doug stayed in New York.

Do you think we really won't piss off Snoopy by doing this?

Gary Forman sits in Reinsdorf's office. Frankly speaking, the trading chips provided by the Golden State Warriors are too tempting. They are willing to take the two contracts of Carlos Boozer and Derrick Rose, and at the same time send the draft picks, special transaction bonuses, and the final year of the contracts of Steve Curry and Harrington.

Curry's style of play fits perfectly with Snoopy's, and the world knows how close their relationship is.

The team doctor, Timberlake from Silicon Valley, also expressed his professional position: Curry is a very tough player, and he is far healthier than he looks.

This dispelled Reinsdorf's last worry.

Therefore, he approached Gary Foreman to make a final decision on the deal.

But obviously, Gary Foreman didn't want to make trouble with Snoopy because of this matter. He had read the history of the Bulls when he succeeded, and he knew how discordant the relationship between the general manager of Klaus and Michael Jordan and Phil Jackson was. Frankly speaking, if the relationship between them is better, the Bulls won more than just six championships in the 1990s.

What's happening now is that Derrick Rose's team wants to leave. They also want to go to a team that Derrick runs completely. Golden State is a very good rebuilding team, and there is also a very good market there. With Derek's ability, he can easily win everyone's heart and become the absolute core of that team and a box office superstar.

Reinsdorf spread his palms: Why don't we do this? Everyone gets what they want in this deal. It's three wins, no, four wins.

Golden State got a superstar with a better future, Derek got absolute control and tactical status. We got a more reasonable salary space and lineup. Snoopy didn't lose, don't think we didn't know he sacrificed How many ball possessions he has, if he wants, he can also compete for the scoring champion.

Reinsdorf spoke up.

He felt that the deal was seamless and perfect. It must be a happy result in the end.

Don't you think we should consult with Snoopy beforehand? He has expressed his close relationship with Derek in front of the media many times. If he feels ignored in this matter, in case he does What should we do if we make other decisions?

Gary Foreman said cautiously.

However, Reinsdorf has crossed the mall for many years.

He has his own judgment.

He thought that what the duke said was just a superficial talk. Although he had real feelings, how could the real feelings be compared with the real benefits? Derek and him exist on the same team to hurt each other.

Now, he just wants to be a big villain, a person who takes all the blame.

He believes that in the end Doug will understand himself, and Derrick Rose will understand himself.

After all, these two favored children of heaven really can only bloom more completely and perfectly after they are separated. There are too many points of overlap between them.

That's why Derrick Rose's team ran to his office time and time again to persuade him to give trading orders.

In a sense, Reinsdorf is already very humane.

Because the price tag given by the New York Knicks is higher.

They are willing to take Stoudemire out, the conditions are right, and even Carmelo Anthony is not a problem.

But...why do this?

Doing so would definitely anger Snoopy, so his refusal was extremely decisive and clear.

He thought he made the right decision.
