After returning home with a large bag of guns, Lao Wang decided to build a gun room in his new villa. He bought six assault rifles, three shotguns, and two sniper rifles with thousands of rounds of bullets, enough for a small battle.
The place is too small.
The only regret is that I heard that there is an anti-material sniper rifle, but it is not allowed for private ownership. I heard that the destructive power of that thing is amazing.
"Charles, I bought a gun. When are we going to go out with a group to play?" He called Buckley on the phone.
"Hmm, what gun did you buy?"
Buckley was making coffee for his wife, holding his cell phone over his shoulder and saying.
He and Maureen got married in 1989, and it was love at first sight. In this era, very few black people married white people in the United States, so their marriage was actually greatly criticized, rejected, and even discriminated against in society. But the two
He has a very good relationship, and he has never messed around outside after getting married.
Lao Wang shouted: "They are all there. I bought six assault rifles, and..."
"Bang!"
Buckley was stunned and his cellphone fell to the ground.
Fortunately, today's mobile phones are highly durable and are more durable even if they are dropped. You can pick them up and continue using them.
"Damn it, old K, why did you buy so many guns? Do you want to fight?" he laughed and cursed.
"I like it." Lao Wang chuckled.
"You are such a stingy person, but you are so generous when you buy a gun." Buckley complained.
"Don't be afraid. I just accepted an endorsement deal with a men's clothing brand. Three million in three years is enough for me to buy a house and a gun." Lao Wang said proudly.
"Shet!"
After hanging up the phone, Buckley threw the phone away.
I came here to show off to him. You can’t get used to this kind of person, otherwise you will come back to show off in front of him next time you get an endorsement, and you won’t be able to give him a good look.
He handed the coffee to his wife Maureen, sat next to him, and said angrily: "Mauren, you said my figure is very sexy, but why don't any men's clothing brands ask me to endorse them? They would rather go to Old K.
Muscular men, do they only like those kind of macho men?"
Maureen stroked her forehead speechlessly, "Oh my God, my dear, I said your figure is very sexy, do you really believe me? Are you stupid?"
"Lao K's signing with CAA was a good move. At least it's good now. He got two endorsements and sponsorships just after signing the contract."
Barkley said enviously: "Mauren, do you think I should sign CAA for my next contract?"
Mo Lin smiled and said: "You can consider it. I did hear in the circle that CAA intends to develop into the sports world. However, there is no big move at the moment. I think including signing the old K, it is just a test of CAA."
Buckley said: "I heard from Old K that CAA will also promote it to Asia. This guy is lucky."
Mo Lin said: "As the first Asian to enter the NBA, Lao K has this advantage, but no one knows how much resources the CAA can use and how effective it can be. Unless the NBA is in China
The market is open."
Barkley nodded. Old K had just entered the league and had no achievements. It was indeed impossible for CAA to pay a large price to support him.
…
"Bang bang bang..."
In the evening, Wang Tiejun was following Zhang Lili to train on the pace of the basket and the offensive skills at the basket.
Zhang Lili is known as a magician under the basket in Asia. He has solid basic footwork and full offensive firepower at the basket. With a height of less than two meters, he can create a world in the penalty area just like Barkley. He has real abilities.
As long as Lao Wang is at home now, he will train with Lao Zhang for some time every night to avoid wasting the money he paid.
After the training, the labor should not be wasted. Zhang Lili gave him a full body massage, using medicated oil.
Massage is also very tiring, especially for a muscular man like Lao Wang. It is very strenuous. Lao Zhang said breathlessly: "The ability to resist injuries is firstly a natural physique and secondly acquired training. Strength training is very important.
, only with high-quality muscle groups can we avoid injuries to the greatest extent.”
Lao Wang was pushed until he fell asleep. When he heard Lao Zhang's words, he suddenly woke up. He had also undergone a stage of weight gain and strength training. His muscles had increased by three or four kilograms. Has his ability to resist injuries been improved?
He hadn't noticed it, so he quickly turned on the system.
"Level 86?"
After thinking about it, it seems that it was upgraded a bit. It used to be level 85, but I don’t really remember.
He looked at other data specifically and found that the bounce seemed to have improved by one level. It was now level 66. There were no other changes.
The next day, the Suns embarked on a road trip.
Wang Tiejun's performance in the three away games was average. He had some physical problems. His physical recovery slowed down and he easily felt tired. At the same time, his attention was easily distracted. There were more mistakes and fouls. He was not excited enough about the game and was not interested in the basket.
His offense has decreased, and his hook shot near the basket is not good.
In three games, he averaged 27 minutes per game and made 4 of 9 shots, with a shooting percentage of less than 50%. He averaged only three attacks at the basket per game, and his shooting percentage was okay. He succeeded twice, but he averaged 2 of 6 shots per game on hook shots near the basket.
In the middle, the shooting percentage is just over 30%, which is almost the same as David Robinson's near-basket shooting percentage.
His attack on the basket was insufficient, and his lethality was also reduced. He only averaged 6 free throws per game and averaged 11 points and 7 rebounds per game.
After returning to the home court and playing two games, his performance was still the same and his condition was still a bit sluggish.
The media commented that this was hitting a rookie wall.
This state lasted until the end of March, which caused his average data to drop significantly. His average time per game dropped to 31 minutes, 14 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.2 steals, 1.5 blocks, 2.8 turnovers and 3.8 fouls.
Of all the statistics, only assists have gotten better.
His rookie ranking dropped to 7th. If his rebounding data were not good, his ranking would be even lower. Walter Williams, who was 8th, had 17 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3 assists.
However, the Suns' record is still strong. As of the end of March, they had 56 wins and 12 losses in 68 regular season games, still ranked first in the league.
Relying on the Suns' record, Barkley still ranked first in the MVP rankings in March, suppressing the likes of Dream, Jordan and others below him.
On April 1st, there was no competition and Wang Tiejun happened to be moving.
Lance Hoxman bought him a villa in a detached community for $350,000. It was far from luxurious, but it was much better than the house he lived in for free.
We also made some modifications and decorations, and added a training room in the backyard, which cost nearly 100,000 in total.
Then I bought a luxury Mercedes-Benz SUV, which cost another hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The personal stylist hired for him also prepared many sets of clothes, shoes, and men's perfume for him, which cost him more than 100,000 US dollars.
After many twists and turns, plus US$600,000 in legal fees, the US$1.5 million in endorsement fees paid to him by Heavy Pound Brand was almost spent, and this was before paying taxes.
At noon that day, he held a moving party at his new home and invited his teammates and coaching staff to come over for a party.
Lao Zhang was the most active in throwing a party and prepared a lot of dishes.
He is now familiar with the coaching staff and trainers of the Suns. He often exchanges experiences with them and feels that he has made a lot of progress. He is very keen to communicate with other trainers.
"Old K, there are still 14 regular season games in the last month. This is your last chance to adjust. I will increase your playing time to 30 minutes and increase your shots to 10 to 12 times. You must be mentally prepared."
While eating, head coach Westphal said.
After this period of physical training, he believes that Wang Tiejun's physical limit has been exceeded, that is, the rookie wall has been passed. Some training and game data also illustrate this.
"I understand, coach. Now I feel that my physical recovery speed seems to be faster, I don't get tired so easily, and I have more energy when I wake up in the morning." Wang Tiejun nodded.
Chief trainer Aaron Nelson said at this time: "Further adjustments are still needed in the last month. My suggestion is to limit the playing time to 30 minutes. This allows Old K to make some physical reserves in the final time."
"Then do it." Westphal nodded and smiled.
"Level 92."
Lao Wang took a look at the system at this time. The physical training during this period had increased his physical fitness by two levels, and he was only three levels away from his potential level.
"The system, this rate of improvement seems to be faster than the system's training. Why?" He asked in his mind.
"The training content of the system is more scientific and reasonable. If the host redeems the physical training function card, although the progress is slightly slower, the consumption of the body will be smaller, which can avoid injuries to a greater extent and slow down the aging rate of the body." The system.
road.
"I'm in. If you didn't tell me earlier, I would have exchanged it." Lao Wang said regretfully.
"Redeem physical training card."
"Redeemed."
Open the training card. The training time is two months. Once completed, you can advance to two levels.
That is to say, after completing the content of this training card, his physical fitness can be improved to level 94, and level 95 is his physical limit.
Today I just finished two months of training on the low post training card. His low post pace level has increased by 3 levels, reaching level 88.
In addition, the rebound training has been carried out for forty days and has been upgraded by two levels. It is now level 83.
The two-month flexibility and coordination training ended at the end of this month. Now they have been upgraded to level 63 for flexibility and level 68 for coordination.
The progress is not very big, it mainly depends on the extra training during the offseason when there is enough time.
He just used 200 points, and he still has 400 points left.
This month he only received one point award with a total score of 500 points, and he was awarded 200 points.
Since getting the contract at the end of December, he has played a total of 45 games with the Suns, and now has a total score of 630 points and a total of 346 rebounds. The system only rewards data that reaches an integer above 500.
…
Entering April of 1993, the regular season came to an end.
On April 10, the Suns came to the Eastern Conference and challenged the Bulls away from home.
This is the last regular season game for both teams this season. Although the outcome of the game has nothing to do with their respective rankings, everyone wants to win this game.
Especially Jordan, who told the media before the game that today he will hit 50 on Wang Tiejun's head again.
This game has attracted a lot of attention, because Jordan and the Bulls are the most popular team in the league, and the Suns are the team with the best record in the league, but this is not the reason why this game has attracted the most attention.
Because last time Jordan was slapped in the face by Wang Tiejun in public.
The game was broadcast live across the United States by ABC TV, and the commentators were Bill Walton and John Hanks.
John Hanks said: "Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley are both enemies and very good friends, but now the Bulls and Suns have completely become bitter enemies because of a slap in the face. Jordan will not let the Suns go.
.
The Suns are both a potential opponent in the finals and a team that humiliates him. This time he will definitely have an outburst just like the last time he played the Suns. No one can mess with Michael without being punished. He is the best on the basketball court.
Black Jesus.”
Bill Walton laughed and said: "Ever since the postman was knocked unconscious, I believe that no one will dare to humiliate and provoke Old K. Tonight, I believe that Old K will madly sweep the Bulls' restricted area. He is Caesar the Conqueror. I think the Bulls have no inside line."
People can compete.”
"The inside combination of Bill, Cartwright and Grant, even the three super centers, are capable of dealing with each other."
John Hanks warned, apparently he had a different opinion.
Bill Walton smiled and shook his head. As a superstar center in the league, he has more say. He said: "Old K's current strength is obviously not as good as the three super centers, especially on the defensive end, but his strongest
On the offensive end, his low-post power is enough to sweep the entire league's penalty area.
His low-post playing style is completely different from that of the three super centers. Strength and tonnage are his weapons. At the same time, his sudden power relies on his playing skills, which makes him unparalleled and unparalleled in the league.
Grant and Cartwright are unable to compete with such a low-post monster. Even if they can deal with the three super centers, I think they will be completely wiped out by Old K tonight."
"Bill, I think you are exaggerating. Old K has been in a slump for a month, and he has not yet climbed out of the rookie wall. Don't exaggerate."
John Hanks said with a smile.
Bill Walton laughed, nodded and said with a smile: "It's true, including defense, Old K's comprehensive strength is still below the first rate, but if I brag about his low position, he probably won't be slapped in the face."
…
"Buzz buzz..."
Outside the players' tunnel, the loud noise was deafening, making everyone lose their hearing.
It was the first time he came to the most terrifying home court in the 1990s, the United Center belonging to the Bulls. Faced with its terrifying home court momentum, Wang Tiejun couldn't help but feel palpitated.
"Boy, this is my territory, I will crush you here!"
Jordan's roar rang in his ears. Looking outside, he turned back and saw a black face with extreme paranoia and determination. That kind of arrogant kingly aura shocked his soul.
"Stay away from me, your saliva splashed on my face, it stinks." He pushed Jordan away violently.
Jordan stumbled and almost fell. He was so angry that he cursed: "Damn boy, do you dare to attack me here?"
At this time, more than a dozen security personnel in the player tunnel stared at Wang Tiejun, their sharp and fierce eyes revealing their hostility towards him without any cover-up.
"Oh!"
With a sneer, he scolded: "Old guy, this is all you have, why don't you just do it like in the last game, where you punch me and I get sent off? Then you can win without a fight."
"asshole!"
Jordan cursed secretly.
This damn rookie must have bad intentions. He is tempting himself to be violent, and then he will hit himself, slap himself, and knock himself out with an elbow. Therefore, he must not be fooled and cannot be violent. He can only use scoring lessons on the court.
he.
At this time, the visiting team came on the scene, and Wang Tiejun ran out with Barkley.
"Get out of here!"
However, when he was about to go out, he suddenly pushed Jordan, and Jordan hit the wall. He was so angry that he yelled: "Damn rookie, you attacked me?"
"Don't provoke me, otherwise you will be like the postman." The irritable Wang Tiejun suddenly turned around and roared.
He was fed up with these big-name celebrities. They all cost as much as 2,500,000 to 80,000 yuan, and they were arrogant. There were celebrity whistles in front of him, but in fact, they were all full of racial discrimination, which was not fun.
Jordan choked, postman?
That guy is as strong as an ox, and he only took a week's rest to recover from his injury. What if he gets an elbow from Old K?
"Damn it, you have to be careful!"
He originally planned to break out a few more times tonight, preferably dunking on Old K, but now he decided not to take any risks.
Ever since Old K knocked out the postman with his elbow, anyone in this league who encounters the Suns and wants to humiliate this rookie must consider his reaction, including him.
Of course, he would definitely do it if he had the chance. Would he still dare to chase after him after dunking him?
At eight o'clock, the game officially begins.
Suns: Wang Tiejun, Barkley, Ceballos, Dan Maley, Kevin Johnson
Bulls: Bill Cartwright, Grant, Pippen, Jordan, BJ Armstrong
Wang Tiejun jumped the ball and the Suns attacked.
Entering the low post on the left wing, facing veteran Carter White, he forced himself deep and directly squeezed into a position only one step away from the basket, and then asked for the ball with his back to the basket.
The Suns stretched to a limited extent, but the effect was average, and the Bulls immediately shrank their defensive formation.
The ball had just passed from the top of the arc, but the Bulls' double-teaming began immediately. Cobra Grant directly lost Barkley and implemented weak-side help defense.
Jordan immediately covered Barkley, and others immediately covered Barkley, trying to make up for the vacancy caused by the double-team.
As soon as Lao Wang caught the ball, Grant came out from behind and slapped his hand hard, causing the ball to drop.
At this time, Pippen rushed over and grabbed the ball, and the Bulls immediately switched from defense to offense.
"What the hell!"
Lao Wang quickly chased after him.
"K was not double-teamed last time, but he was double-teamed this time. This must be the Bulls preparing for the finals." Assistant coach Lewis said on the sidelines.
"It's going to be difficult tonight, and if we make it to the finals, this is a preview of the finals."
Head coach Westphal nodded thoughtfully, but then said: "But I believe in Old K's ability to break double teams, and his ability to hit. No one in the Bulls can handle it, unless they use fouls."
Tactics.”
But he was still very nervous because like Lao K, he was also a rookie.
As soon as he took charge, he achieved the league's best record, and then the team's goal of a championship put him under a lot of pressure.
