Whether it’s a man and a woman, a man and a man, or a woman and a woman, as long as one of them takes the initiative, there will definitely be a story between them!

Karl Malone feels that Jiang Dalin has taken 99 steps towards him, and he should take the last step.

"Man, I think we should always have a meal together, after all, I think we'd have something in common..."

Karl Malone smiled brightly. He had never smiled so brightly when he was hunting in Mexico.

Jiang Dalin also didn't expect that Karl Malone was not only a "Cao Cao", but he was also so unable to resist the "seduce" of men.

But this is definitely good news for him.

In fact, he originally thought of taking action during the summer vacation, but now it seems that he feels that he can take action in advance.

In the past, Jiang Dalin always wanted to get rid of the food as soon as he saw it, but today, he very well restrained the idea of ​​finishing the piece of Wagyu beef in front of him as soon as possible: "If there is a chance, I hope I can talk to you

Learn more, in one season or more!”

Karl Malone is not a simple-minded person with well-developed limbs.

He could hear the implication behind Jiang Dalin's words.

This guy wants to be teammates with me!

but……

This seems impossible, right?

The Wizards definitely have no intention of trading Jiang Dalin to the Jazz. As for him...

How could I possibly team up with Michael Jordan?

He beat me in the finals...twice!

With Karl Malone's self-esteem, he would never allow himself to do this.

"Man, I think it must be a very wonderful journey, and if possible, I hope it can become a reality." Karl Malone said with some polite refusal.

Jiang Dalin is not surprised. Karl Malone is definitely an arrogant guy. It is impossible for him to cooperate with Michael Jordan. Of course, this has a premise, that is, his arrogance and self-esteem should be higher than his desire for a championship!

But the actual situation is not like this...

Jiang Dalin knew very well that something like this happened in 2004. A "postman" from Salt Lake City took a courier to Los Angeles, where he fought until he retired.

This is the true situation of Karl Malone.

He is indeed very arrogant, just like the young woman who would not agree to the old man next door for the first time.

But he is essentially a "Pan Jinlian". If he does it too many times, he will just accept it!

Of course, there is another key point. You must let him know clearly that if you want to win the championship, you must make such sacrifices. It is like Ximen Qing let Pan Jinlian know what kind of happiness he can bring.

It is crucial for Karl Malone to realize this!

"Karl, you should know that in Salt Lake City, at least in the next four years, you will not be able to win the championship because of the Los Angeles Lakers!"

Jiang Dalin was going to break it apart bit by bit, mash it up, and analyze the pros and cons with Karl Malone.

Thanks to the good impression he had left on Karl Malone, he did not immediately refute Jiang Dalin, but carefully thought about what he said.

Then he nodded slightly.

He does not deny this...

With the current ability of the Jazz, it is indeed difficult to win a championship.

Because both he and Stockton are getting older, and the Jazz have not produced a super genius like Jiang Dalin!

"In fact, it's not just you, there are 28 teams in the entire league. There are only a few teams that can compete with the Lakers in the next three or four years..."

"For example, the Spurs, Tim Duncan, and the Kings, all the remaining teams basically have no ability to compete with them."

Karl Malone tilted his head.

Jiang Dalin smiled, he knew what Karl Malone was wondering about.

"What I'm saying is, this is the situation in the West. Of course, there are teams in the East that can compete with the Lakers, for example, our Wizards!"

Karl Malone showed a "Sure enough" expression, knowing that Jiang Dalin would add the Wizards.

Of course, he does not deny that this team does have the ability to compete with the Lakers.

"If you want to win the championship, the Lakers are a big mountain that you can't avoid. If you give up on winning a championship in your career, then OK, you can renew your contract with the Jazz and retire honorably there. I guarantee that.

, at least in Salt Lake City you are the greatest player, you will have retired jerseys, you will have your statue, for Salt Lake City, your choice is very great!"

"But when you get home and look at your cabinet full of honors and trophies, will you feel a little regretful that there is a championship ring missing?"

Players must work hard for money at the beginning. When they have almost earned enough money, they will also want to work hard for honors. When they have enough personal honors, they will be very eager to taste the champagne that belongs to the champion.

This is an idea that every player with great personal honors cannot get around.

Just like Barkley chose to go to the Rockets...

"If you want to win the championship, leaving Salt Lake City is the choice you must make. Is it to cooperate with the greatest fourth position in NBA history, Tim Duncan?"

"Or maybe go to the Gorgeous King and forcefully form a piece of the puzzle?"

"Or... let the great legacy continue, and let Karl Malone's style of play continue to write legends in this league?"

"Of course..."

"You still have a choice!"

Jiang Dalin's tone paused when he said this, and Karl Malone was really a little confused now.

Is there another option?

Retire in Salt Lake City and join the Spurs, Kings or Wizards...

Isn’t this all said?

Jiang Dalin quickly gave the answer: "You can also go to the Lakers and form with Shaquille O'Neal, which may be the most powerful inside combination in the NBA in the past ten years..."

"How is this possible? How can I cooperate with that guy?"

Karl Malone shouted.

"Even if I drank ten bottles of whiskey, smoked fifty pounds of leaves, fell off the 50th floor, and knocked my brain out, I still wouldn't be able to choose to join the Lakers. Absolutely, impossible!"

Jiang Dalin:......

Well, human beings are all really sweet anyway, and Karl Malone is no different.

But if you really want to say it, Karl Malone may be more resistant to joining the Lakers in this life. After all, this past season, he had really frequent friction with Shaquille O'Neal.

The current relationship between the two people can be said to be extremely bad.

If you look at it from this perspective, you may be able to understand why Karl Malone’s reaction was so big!

Karl Malone must find an opportunity to kick Shaquille O'Neal's ass hard, and then tell him: "Man, I asked you to kick you once, but I kicked you hard three times in total, including now that I am old

You can hardly lift my pants anymore, but I can still give you a hard kick!"

He was so excited that Jiang Dalin was not excited anymore. He just looked at him and said lightly: "Well, buddy, you should really think about what I said..."

"Is it the 39-year-old Michael Jordan, or the 31-year-old Shaquille O'Neal who just punched you!"

In fact, Karl Malone is not young anymore. He is about the same age as Michael Jordan. He is also 38 years old this year.

"Okay, man, I think I have to take back what I just said." Karl Malone was silent for a while and said what Jiang Dalin wanted to hear, "I have to think about it carefully. If I still want to get the championship ring,

What should I do..."

This consideration will definitely not be completed in a short while.

Jiang Dalin was not in a hurry. In fact, he had expected that this conversation would be during the summer vacation, but now, it has been much earlier.

"Let's talk about something else first!"

"Man, I think what is more urgent for you now is not whether I will join next season, but how to better compete in this round of finals, right?"

This time it was Jiang Dalin's turn to be surprised.

Karl Malone seems to have prepared something to bring over...

Not to mention, Jiang Dalin is quite interested in some things.

Just like how he fucked Thomas out of his body with one elbow.

…

As the finals approach, ESPN organized a group of 17 experts to predict this year's finals.

The end result is...

Tie vote!

Originally, in order to avoid a tie vote, we specifically selected an extra person. Unexpectedly, that person abstained from voting this time.

8 to 8 tie.

Shaquille O'Neal was very dissatisfied with this result.

"I think they lack the attention to the defending champion. You know, this is our third consecutive finals, and it will be our third consecutive championship. In the year of the dynasty, I think everyone should know
