The Point Guard is Here

(This turning point is very sudden, for you. But I really don’t want to count the words. I have to start the real plot. To be honest, in this chapter, I scrapped several beginnings, and finally decided to write it this way.)

On the evening of September 15, 2003.

Fan Xi was lying quietly on the attic of the ancient castle, Fan Xiaohua was fanning him beside him, and this year's champion, LeBron James, stood proudly in front of Fan Xi, the former younger brother is now half a head taller than Fan Xi , this little emperor who is called the Chosen One by the league... who will inherit the NBA in the future is thinking about his career.

Fan Xi half-closed his eyes, he was recalling his past career.

Seven years passed quickly, and his $135 million was already in his pocket.

However, his fame stagnated during this time.

In 1997, he led the team to five games against the Seattle SuperSonics, losing that series 4:1. That season, another set of Western Conference semifinals was the Lakers against the Jazz, and the young Lakers lost to the Jazz. The Jazz then defeated the Sonics, but in the finals, the Jazz lost to the Chicago Bulls by a big score of 2:4, fulfilling Michael Jordan's fourth championship.

After this season ended, Fan Xi practiced hard for a week, and finally got enough iron value of 500,000. He exchanged it for a mid-range jumper, but it was just a normal confrontation level.

The new blacksmith value is directly inflationed to 5 million.

This is an amazing challenge for him.

98 years.

Fan Xie increased the number of individual singles in the regular season, but at this time Barkley and Chris Mullin were getting older. Before the playoffs, Mullin even had to be reimbursed for the season...and then returned to his fortune in the following season Golden State Warriors, and retired there.

This season, the Clippers defeated the San Antonio Spurs in the first round. Tim Duncan, the strongest rookie and the top five MVP voter in his rookie season, played very eye-catching in this round of the series, but then he was injured.

This led many to say that the Clippers picked up a series win.

Then in the second round, the Clippers lost to the Lakers 3:4 in the increasingly fierce Los Angeles Derby. Kobe Bryant completed the lore at a critical moment, but countless replays after that game proved to be 2 points on the three-point line.

But the league will not give them another chance to overtime.

The Lakers were defeated by the Utah Jazz again in the Western Conference Finals.

And the Utah Jazz was killed by the aging Bulls in the Finals, and Michael Jordan's Shot of the Century was fulfilled.

Jordan won his fifth championship in his career. Subsequently, he announced his second retirement. The Bulls did not complete their second dynasty, and their players also fell apart. Pippen, Cole, Longley, Rodman and others all changed their teams, and entered a long period of depression.

At the same time, because of the contracts of Kevin Garnett and others, the league entered a suspension.

After the lockout was finally settled, Fan Xi found that Charles Barkley, who had returned from the lockout, was as fat as a ball, and the other players were not in good condition. After all, the water in Los Angeles was too nourishing.

In addition, a group of superstars like Wen Baker and Sean Kemp were directly abolished.

This also means that the superstars of the 96 golden generation will make their full debut on stage.

This season, the Clippers still stopped in the second round. Fan Xie has improved every year in the past two years, but the rate of improvement is not as exaggerated as his rookie season or second season.

At this time, those medal players began to show their brilliance.

Ben Wallace broke out in an all-round way this season. He beat Tim Duncan and David Robinson in the second round of the playoffs, and even had the feat of directly pressing Robinson down from the air.

But in the end, two fists were no match for four hands, and the Spurs' twin towers had the last laugh. They defeated the young Ben Wallace and Jermaine O'Neal. And, defeated the Knicks led by Patrick Ewing in the final finals.

The second-year freshman Duncan raised the Finals MVP trophy. Although he did not break Fan Xi's record for the youngest Finals MVP,

But many people think that he ended the era of the four major centers.

The future will belong to him and Shaquille O'Neal.

After this season, the Clippers have undergone a major shakeup.

Ben Wallace was poached to Detroit by the Detroit Pistons with a four-year, $50 million contract.

O'Neal was also poached by the Indiana Pacers for 5 years and 70 million US dollars.

Originally, Fan Xi thought that at least one could be left behind.

However, Elgin Baylor was obsessed with chasing the draft picks, and the result was nothing.

For this reason, Fan Xie was called a cancer of the Clippers by the basketball media, because the league strictly implemented the new salary cap agreement after the suspension of the season, and Van Xie's super salary squeezed the team's space.

Even if Charles Barkley retired because of this, it could not be resolved.

The disintegration of the Clippers lineup is very different...the Lakers exploded quickly, and Phil Jackson arrived in his intimate Los Angeles after leaving the Bulls.

News of his flirting with his boss's daughter, Jenny Buss, knocked Van Leh out of the headlines.

Before this, Fan Le and Jenny Buss were flirting with each other.

Kobe Bryant has fully matured this season, and O'Neal's dominance has reached its peak. Thus, the OK combination that swept the league was born this season.

They respectively won the championship in 99-00, the championship in 2000-01, and the championship in 2001-02.

In the past three years, the Clippers, short of major generals, have been in the first round.

In the past three years, Fan Xi has averaged 21.6 points, 11.3 assists and 5.1 rebounds per game, and has been able to enter the top ten of the regular season MVP rankings every year.

However, he is no longer the brightest star.

Seven years ago, he, Anfernee Hardaway and Grant Hill were the most shining new stars. But now, people are crazy about Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady... .

Fan Xi's name is still ranked relatively high, but some people still say that he has high salary and low ability. Some people even think that the triple-double king Jason Kidd has surpassed him.

Think better, though. Compared with Anfernee Hardaway and Grant Hill, who were also star-studded back then, Vanhey is at least still active in this league.

The most important thing in the summer of 2002 was that Yao Huang joined the NBA, and he became the No. 1 pick in the NBA. His pairing with Vanheede in the 2000 Olympics had NBA scouts salivating.

Although the trend of the league has changed greatly now, and the commercial value is driven by this group of star-studded guards, the mainstream view within the league is still that whoever wins the center wins the world.

Yao Huang played well in his first season, and his regular season statistics were better than Fan Xi's first season regular season statistics. He also covered him a few times in the duel with O'Neill, which made O'Neill so angry.

Then something bad happened to Kobe.

Because of this incident, the conflict between Shaq and Kobe has further intensified.

This also led to their loss to the Spurs led by Tim Duncan in the Western Conference semifinals. After the Spurs killed the Lakers, they killed the Dallas Mavericks. In the end, Jason Kidd, the league's triple-double king and known as the NBA's first point guard, fought in the finals.

The Nets were ruthlessly defeated.

call!

This is a failed season.

The Clippers didn't even make the playoffs, which was the first time in Vanhey's career that he didn't make the playoffs.

He seemed to have hit the lowest point in his life.

This past season was a painful one for Kobe Bryant.

The same is true for Fan Xi.

His blocking of Michael Jordan in the All-Star Game was considered disrespectful by some fans, and said he screwed up Michael Jordan's retirement performance.

There are also many problems within the Clippers. The key point of the problem is...the dispute between Uncle Fan Le and Aunt Madonna has continued.

Just like every man and woman who enters into marriage, quarrels are always inevitable.

And the quarrels between celebrities are even more intriguing.

It's difficult for Fan Xi to be caught in the middle, so he has no choice but to take Fan Xiaohua to his residence.

I ended up choosing the No. 23 jersey.

LeBron James suddenly turned around and said to Fan Xi. This big boy who is called the next ruler by the American media is still full of awe towards Fan Xie.

Although he has been wearing Vanhey's No. 30 jersey in high school, he pays homage to this brother who is both like a father and an older brother.

Nike wants me to do this. LeBron James said: They said that Michael Jordan just retired, Kobe's image was damaged, and the brand and the league need a real successor.

Fan Xi nodded.

He agrees with this view.

Although Fan Xie is the only person who has defeated Michael Jordan in his brilliant career, but in terms of his current reputation on the court, Fan Xie is far inferior to Jordan. Moreover, Fan Xi did not need a successor.

On ESPN's rankings.

Fanhee is the 17th-ranked superstar in the league today.

In front of him are not only Shaq O'Neal and Tim Duncan, two phenomenal superstars who rule the league. There are also Garnett, Webber, Iverson, Tracy McGrady, Nowitzki, Vince Carter, Jason Kidd, etc... .

Even the former little brother Ben Wallace was ranked sixteenth, because he averaged 16.5 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game last season and was elected as the leader in rebounds and blocks, and also won the best defensive player and the best defensive first team .

He successfully shouldered Fan Xi's expectations.

Mark Zhang came up from behind. As Delphine returned to Europe in early 1998 and gradually accepted her huge business empire, Fan Xi formed a new brokerage team.

Mark Zhang, who was excavated from Wall Street, became the core of this team. He was responsible for Fanxie's business matchmaking and some investment work.

He is most famous for helping Fanxie make a fortune in the stock market during the Internet bubble at the end of the last century. Many people call him Fanxie's savior. If he didn't make that sum of money, he might invest indiscriminately. Already broke.

But in fact, Mark Zhang knew very well that he had always followed Fan Xi's instructions. And according to the original shares of several major Internet start-up companies currently held by Fanxie, once they go public in the future, they will definitely reach an astonishing number.

Moreover, the domestic real estate hoarded by Vanheede in the mid-1990s is showing vigorous vitality.

He regretted saying why he didn't invest with Fan Xi at the beginning.

Fan Xi once warned him: It is not too late for you to invest now.

But Mark Zhang felt that the risk was still too great, and the theory of China's collapse has been lingering in the minds of senior Chinese like him.

Thought determines destiny. .

But Fan Xi generally called him: Chief Ma.

Also call the brokerage team he is in charge of: Economics Section.

To be more down-to-earth, Tom, a native New Yorker, is called Tang Fuke.

Tom is currently working hard to become a chief staff member. He doesn't expect to be close to the position of Chief Ma, but he wants to have the same level as Mark Zhang. It doesn't have to be a leadership role.

Fan Xi thought he was very good.

Just like Lloyd, Lloyd has gone crazy in order to truly become a leader in the past two years. He reads a leader's quotation every day, and vigorously criticizes Fox's corruption in the locker room.

This is probably why Fox later went to the Lakers next door.

Boss, someone from New York is here.

Mark Zhang said respectfully to Fan Xi: They showed great sincerity.

Fan Xi nodded.

James Dolan finally killed his father in the past summer, and he is now in charge of the family alone. From the day his father entered the box, he kept calling Fan Xi, hoping that Fan Xi would go over and give him a hand.

Since the Knicks counterattacked the Heat and reached the finals in Black Eight, they have been worse year after year.

Now they are in a leaderless state.

James Dolan hoped that Fan Xi would go over and give him a hand.

Fan Xi stood up from the recliner, and he stretched his body.

In the past seven years, he has not let up for a moment.

Although the exchange speed of his various physical talents is slow, after a long period of time, it is not a small scale.

As for the iron value of 5 million, in the season just past, Fan Xi often staged a one-on-five, and now it is only 200,000 short.

200,000 was a very staggering number in the past.

But now, it seems to be nothing more than that.

After all, the debt of 5 million yuan has been carried over.

Did James Dolan come by himself? Vanhee asked him.

Yes. Chief Ma nodded.

Fan Xi said, then go and meet him.

Then Fan Xi asked Chief Ma: The day before yesterday, what happened when Britney Spears and Kate Winslet had a fight backstage at the Oscars?

Chief Ma quickly made a headache gesture: I don't know anything.

James on the side smiled foolishly.

Young and frivolous, he once said that he wanted to drink Britney's footwash.

However, since he learned about the relationship between his big brother Fanhee and Britney Spears, he called himself unworthy.

Britney Spears is another true global icon after Madonna and Jackson. The influence is amazing, especially after Fan Xi helped her get rid of the control of her manager and father, she is now fully fired.

Even Oscar asked her to be the host.

Jack, do you think I can win the best rookie of the new season?

James asked Fanhee as he walked. .

Do you think Carmelo Anthony will be a threat to you? Vanhee said.

Carmelo Anthony is called James' lifelong enemy by the media, and they actually fought against each other in high school. However, Anthony is one year older. He entered the NCAA ahead of schedule, and then led Syracuse University to create an unprecedented miracle. As a freshman, he led Syracuse University to the NCAA Finals, won the championship, and he also got the MOP. It can be called the first miracle in NCAA history.

Therefore, now the media always compares James and Carmelo Anthony.
