Chapter 184 [Suspension holiday, one win and one defeat]
The regular season continues, and SuperSonics fans feel that Yang Jian was suspended at the wrong time, because the team's opponent in the next game will be the Orlando Magic led by Anfernee Hardaway.
Moreover, the SuperSonics played two strong teams in the Eastern Conference in consecutive away games, and the second opponent was the New York Knicks.
Yang Jian was suspended, and the Magic were also missing one of the four centers, Shaquille O'Neal, which greatly reduced the excitement of the game. This game was not broadcast live nationwide, only on local channels. After Yang Jian was suspended, tv5 also did not
Live broadcast of SuperSonics games. Chinese fans just support Yang Jian and don’t have much interest in other stars.
Before the game, Hardaway lamented that without Yang Jian, the game would be a lot less fun. He seemed to be sure of victory and didn't take Gary Payton seriously at all. He was just so confident.
The result of the game was shocking. The Magic lost to the SuperSonics 85-93 at home.
Hardaway played 38 minutes, making only 2 of 14 shots, 0 of 4 three-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, 7 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal, 1 block, and 5 turnovers.
This was so embarrassing. "Penny" was covered by the "glove" and he didn't have a good shot in the whole game.
Payton proved his defensive ability in the absence of Yang Jian. He also performed better than Hardaway on the offensive end. He played 40 minutes and scored 17 points, 2 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals.
The SuperSonics do not have Yang Jian, but they still have a strong defense. PJ Brown, Bo Otero, and Snow also performed well on the defensive end and fought for every ball.
For 20 minutes, George Karl arranged for Snow and Payton to play as double backs. The defensive effect was better than that of 198cm Vincent Askew at the 2 position.
Snow is getting better and better as he plays, he works hard on defense, he can catch and shoot on the offensive end, and his passing awareness is better than Askew.
Booutero became the team's surprise player. When Schrempf was at the 4th position, he defended well at the small forward position. Denis Scott, who is 203cm tall and weighs 104kg, scored the second goal for the Magic.
Point, Booutero has no advantage when playing alone with the ball.
The Sonics' offense was not very good, relying on the performance of three stars to defeat the Magic. Kemp was the key, and without O'Neal, he had an obvious advantage in the paint, scoring 22 points, 13 rebounds and 2 assists.
After the game, the media hardly reported on the performance of the stars in this game, and only mentioned the score. The previous promotion of Hardaway vs. Yang Jian pretended not to mention it, and Yang Jian did not play anyway.
This is how the NBA celebrates its stars. Try to pretend that a bad game never happened. If a star has a big breakout in a certain game, focusing on the report can attract more attention.
If the media doesn't report on it, there won't be many fans who know that a superstar has been beaten or went crazy in a certain game. This is a major advantage in the 1990s. In the Internet age, it is almost impossible for the NBA to control public opinion. Fans will search for information online.
So there are more sunspots.
Hardaway has stopped playing now and will no longer think about attacking Yang Jian in the short term.
He also misses O'Neal a little. It is really difficult to play without a core inside. If O'Neal is there, the Magic cannot be defended and can only shoot outside the penalty area.
Yang Jian did not stay in Seattle during the suspension and flew to New York City with Naomi Watts in advance. After the SuperSonics game against the Knicks, he could participate in the next game and return to Seattle on a special plane
.
He was not depressed because of the suspension, he just treated it as a holiday.
After arriving in New York, Yang Jian first met with Calvin Klein from Calvinklein Company. Yang Jian got into a fight, and Klein wanted him to be his spokesperson.
Klein said that his brand reflects the spirit of American fashion: youthful, fast-paced and functional, with its unique national spirit of freedom.
The freedom of the United States highlights the American double standard, and young Yang Jian really fits this spirit. In the NBA, some people fight tough and some people fight bad. The key depends on the reputation of the players.
Klein's every word and deed in the New York fashion industry has been watched by the media, and he has been dubbed the "Fashion Prince of New York's Seventh Avenue." Although he is 53 years old, he still maintains a well-proportioned figure and works out regularly. He admires Yang very much.
Jane's figure is full of masculinity, strong and well-proportioned.
Yang Jian's body is indeed more symmetrical than other NBA players, and it has never changed. He is so happy about it that he doesn't eat anything. In the eyes of others, he is an extremely self-disciplined athlete.
After finalizing the clothing endorsement contract, Yang Jian received a set of off-white checkered calvinklein high-end autumn and winter wool suits as a gift.
He put on a new outfit and went to watch a musical at a Broadway theater with Naomi. He kept his promise, and he happened to be able to watch a few more shows during the holidays, so he didn't have to squeeze in time.
Like many Chinese people, Yang Jian doesn't know how to appreciate musicals. Sitting in a box and watching a performance is an interesting experience. Even if he wanted to watch it in his previous life, there was no such performance in China.
He came into contact with musicals by watching Hollywood movies, and he has watched all four famous ones: "Phantom of the Opera," "Chicago," "Les Miserables" and "Cats."
He was most impressed by "Cats", in which Taylor Swift played a cameo role. The biggest feature of this film is that a cat plays the role, and the shape can scare children to tears. The review of the film critic is very interesting: "Oh my God,
My eyes!" "This is the worst thing that's ever happened to a cat since dogs!"
No one will criticize people playing cats in musicals because they can only act like this, and real cats can’t sing.
Yang Jian discovered that Naomi really liked musicals, but unfortunately her voice and age conditions did not allow it, otherwise she might have wanted to play Christine in "The Phantom of the Opera".
After watching the musical, Yang Jian has made up his mind to buy the rights to adapt "Chicago" no matter what, and make a movie with Naomi as the heroine. He still remembers the parallel world, which is produced by Miramax Film Company
The movie, produced by Harvey Weinstein, doesn’t steal the money.
The film is Miramax's highest-grossing film, and it's not just a shot at Oscars. The company also has a close relationship with Chinese films. In 1995, it acquired many films by Jet Li, Chow Yun-fat and Jackie Chan. The company also helped "
Mainland films such as "Heroes" and "Shaolin Football" have gone international.
But Yang Jian will definitely not let Naomi audition. Harvey Weinstein was later convicted of first-degree criminal sexual assault and third-degree rape and was sentenced to 23 years in New York State Prison. The beauty will audition for this guy's movie.
, then it’s okay?
Harvey is a recognized scumbag in Hollywood. Although everyone knows that there are hidden rules in Hollywood, it usually depends on your own will. Among the scumbags exposed in Hollywood, only Harvey would use force on actresses.
He has harassed and threatened countless actresses.
Of course Yang Jian wouldn't feel guilty if he stole a movie from someone like him.
Yang Jian joined the team after three days of fun in New York. The SuperSonics lost to the Knicks 77-89, suffering their second loss of the season.
This was another defensive battle. The Sonics were defended and only scored 77 points, a new low for the team this season.
The Sonics lost twice and faced teams with similar configurations. "King Kong" Patrick Ewing is good at defending the penalty area and is one of the four centers. Forwards Anthony Mason Jr. and Charles Oakley are good at single defense and coordination.
Defend.
Oakley is 203cm tall and weighs 110kg. He has a tough playing style and excellent defense. In 1994, he was selected to the Eastern Conference All-Star Team and the NBA All-Defensive Team.
Everyone could see that Kemp was upset by Oakley. He had difficulty catching the ball and was severely pulled down several times while trying to hit the basket. Kemp dared not speak out in anger because he knew Oakley was not easy to mess with.
Oakley is a tough guy, a kickboxing enthusiast, and a complete villain. His style of play is tough and fierce. In his view, his own inside line must not give up any ground, while the opponent's inside line must fight for every inch of ground.
Oakley plays with flying elbows and constant small movements, so he often gets into fights with others.
When it comes to fighting, Oakley really has never been afraid of anyone. In 1991, he challenged Kemp, Payton, and McDaniel one against three in the SuperSonics tunnel in 1991; in 1992, he seriously injured Clifford Robinson in the Rose Garden; in 1993
In 1994, he beat Grant away with a barbell; in 1994, he kicked Robert Hawley.
Perhaps, Oakley does not have any championship dream in his heart. What he pursues is to be tough enough to defeat his opponents regardless of the final result...
