Chapter 342 [The stars hold the moon, high above the sky]
On this day, when all the stars of the competing teams were being interviewed, reporters asked them to comment on Yang Jian's 60 triple-doubles.
All the stars congratulated Yang Jian in unison. For a while, it seemed that it had become a fashion to congratulate Yang Jian, making him like all the stars holding the moon, standing high above everyone else!
Not everyone likes Yang Jian. Many players hate his high profile, and some stars are envious and jealous of him. But in interviews, the players can only praise Yang Jian. This kind of data has to be praised. Who dares to express disdain?
, Yang Jian has nothing wrong with him, and those who evaluate him will most likely be unlucky.
If you look down on Yang Jian, can you still hit a 60 triple-double if you have the ability?
Are you kidding? Not many stars can hit 60 points in a single game, but a triple-double?
In a parallel world, 60 points in a single game for a player is still a difficult stat to obtain in 2021, when data is exploding. Many recognized super scorers have never scored in their entire careers.
For example, Durant, who "death only comes in Golden State", had a career-high of 54 points, but he had no roots after leaving the Warriors. He regretted that it was too late to go to the Nets, and could only cry and chase the Warriors bus after losing.
But I couldn't get into the car. "Kuzi, how can I live without you?"
When the media reported Yang Jian's news, they generally believed that the difficulty level of a 60-point triple-double was not inferior to Chamberlain's 100 points, and would become one of the most difficult statistics to hit in the history of the NBA. The next time someone hits it, who knows when it will be.
League officials have no objection to Yang Jian being selected into the top 50 superstars, and they are just waiting for the results to be announced. There is obviously a gap between Shaquille O'Neal's team leadership ability and Yang Jian, and the risk of favoring him is too high, even if he joins the Lakers.
The Lakers unexpectedly lost to the underdog Celtics 94-110 on the road. O'Neal did not show his due dominance.
Point guard Van Exel, who scored 15 points and 4 assists, commented on Yang Jian and lamented: "He is now a historical star, and last night was his historical night. I still feel that playing against him is a nightmare experience."
O'Neal, who scored 22 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 blocks, and made 2 of 7 free throws, said: "Young must be crazy. How did he achieve a 60 triple-double? This is incredible."
Another No. 21 pick in 1995, Kevin Garnett of the Timberwolves also performed well this season and made significant progress. He scored 21 points, 17 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals and two blocks against the Kings.
When evaluating Yang Jian, Garnett sighed: "He is the better No. 21, his performance is too strong. We will play against the SuperSonics soon, and I will definitely defend him with all my strength. I don't want this to happen during the game."
"
Garnett overthinks it. With the strength of the Timberwolves, Yang Jian will have to get off work in 30 minutes.
Spurs' "Thigh" Dominique Wilkins said: "Young has terrifying physical fitness and top shooting ability. I am very happy that he chose No. 21, although I know he is not a fan of mine."
Magic center Ronny Seikaly was also interviewed. He scored 16 points, 19 rebounds and 3 assists. He was the leading contributor to the Magic's 79-75 home victory over the Hawks. Facing star center Mutombo's defense, Seikaly played
An astonishing momentum.
After "Penny" Anfernee Hardaway was injured, Sekali, who had just joined, unexpectedly became the Magic's leading scorer.
He averaged 35 minutes per game, scored 17.9 points, 10.1 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.4 blocks, and shot 53.2% from the field. He helped the Magic lose only 3 games in the beginning. People were surprised to find that without Hardaway, O'Neal, the Magic team
Still competitive.
Sekali said: "I am very happy that an athlete as strong as Yang can appear in Asia. He has proved that the physical fitness of Asians is not necessarily worse than that of Europeans and Americans. I think it will be difficult for any athlete in Asia to surpass his achievements in the future."
Sekali was born in Lebanon and immigrated to the United States when he was very young. He represented the United States national team in the 1986 Men's Basketball World Championship and won the gold medal. In fact, he was the first Asian to play in the NBA.
He envied Yang Jian very much. He was discriminated against in the NBA and has always been underestimated. He was selected by the Heat with the 9th overall pick in the first round of 1988. From 1989 to 94, he had double-doubles for five consecutive seasons, and the team also had many
He made the playoffs, but he was never selected to the All-Star Game.
On the 28th, Yang Jian celebrated Thanksgiving for the first time in her life and ate turkey at home.
Turkey is a famous delicacy in the United States, but it is a disliked ingredient in China. Its meat is extremely dry, has thick fiber, and has very little fat, resulting in a not-so-good taste.
Naomi Watts wanted to eat turkey, so Yang Jian ate with her.
Naomi is in a particularly good mood today, and "The Ring" is officially on the schedule. Yang Jian also has something to celebrate. Yesterday, Amazon's boss Jeff Bezos agreed to invest in the company.
Amazon is headquartered in Seattle. It is one of the earliest companies on the Internet to start operating e-commerce. The company was founded in 1994 and currently only operates online book sales. Bezos does not know how much potential the company has.
The company has always been short of money. Bezos was very happy that Yang Jian, the biggest celebrity in Seattle, was willing to invest and become a shareholder. He thought Yang Jian invested because he liked online shopping and books.
Moreover, Yang Jian promised that he wanted to invest in this company as a shareholder, and would not interfere in the operation and would only pay dividends. If Bezos wants to move the company elsewhere or add other businesses, he can do whatever he wants, and Yang Jian will not interfere. The company is listed."
He doesn't plan to show his face when "Ring the Bell", and will just be a mysterious investor.
If he sells his shares in the future, he will sell them to Bezos, and he will never give others the opportunity to become the boss.
Amazon's original plan was to start making profits in 4 to 5 years. For such an unprofitable and unlisted company, the shares are certainly not that valuable. Yang Jian sold the shares and invested almost all of his net worth in this company.
.
He invested US$80 million and obtained 28.5% of Amazon's shares. Bezos was shocked to know that he could spend US$80 million. He did not expect that Yang Jian had so much money.
Yang Jian only kept a small part of the money for daily expenses, and his salary will continue to come in. After signing the agreement, Yang Jian does not need to worry about money at all in his life. He will also continue to buy Amazon stocks.
Acquire individual shares after listing. The stock price will definitely fall sharply in 2000, and there will be many opportunities to buy low.
He was in a good mood, and the turkey became delicious. The two talked a lot during the meal, surrounding games and movies. They didn't talk about investment, and Naomi couldn't see any future for Amazon.
On the 29th, the SuperSonics faced the Suns at home and defeated their opponents 122-102 to win their 16th consecutive victory.
The Suns are just messing up this season. Their stars, Charles Barkley and Kevin Johnson, don't care about game results. The Suns' players had lost their energy last season, and it's getting worse this season.
Yang Jian made 8 of 15 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers, 7 of 8 free throws, scoring 25 points, 6 rebounds, 14 assists and 3 steals.
Payton made 11 of 18 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, and 6 of 7 free throws, scoring 31 points and 7 assists; Schrempf had 14 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 assists; Kemp had 20 points, 11 rebounds, and 4 assists.
The four SuperSonics stars continued to share the ball, and substitute Snow also scored 6 points and 4 assists. Almost all of the SuperSonics' scores were assists, and they played an extremely smooth game.
Sam Perkins and Craig Elu also performed well, with 6 players on the team scoring in double figures.
Barkley had the best performance of the Suns, scoring 24 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists. Johnson made only 3 of 12 shots and was blocked by Payton. He managed to score 13 points and 10 assists by making 7 of 8 free throws.
The Suns' 4-11 start was abysmal, and the management was unable to start rebuilding in the middle of the season.
The worst thing is that even if the Suns finished last in the regular season, they couldn't select a high pick in the 1997 draft. Their first-round pick had already been traded to the Celtics. So the Celtics
People had two high-ranking draft picks in 1997, and the parallel world drafted two people and wasted them all.
Because Barkley won the regular season MVP, he received a lot of bad reviews this season. Just as Barkley will criticize others on TNT in the future, now the commentators will criticize him the same way, saying that he does not want to make progress, has no desire to win, etc.
Barkley didn't care at all, he had already chosen his future path.
On the 30th, the NBA revealed big news that shocked the world. The list of the top 50 superstars in history was announced...
