NBA: About Me Being Reincarnated As Yasuo, the Wind Walker

The whole game is over.

The Trail Blazers easily won the game 98:70. Yi Jianlian performed very well with 19 points and 8 rebounds.

In the post-match interview, all media reporters were asking why Zhang Jun did not continue to play in the second half of the game. Monty Williams laughed.

"Zhang Jun is injured."

The news immediately attracted the attention of all media reporters.

Zhang Jun, as this year's No. 1 pick, performed brilliantly in the summer league, and countless fans are already fantasizing about him in the next NBA regular season.

As a result, someone is injured now?

"Is Zhang Jun's injury serious? Will it affect his future regular season first game?"

Faced with this group of worried reporters, Monty Williams couldn't help but secretly regretted that he had not learned Popovich's mysterious injury and should not have used such an excuse.

"He...is fine. He just has some pain in his butt. It should be nothing serious."

"However, for the sake of his health, the team will activate him to the daily observation list in the future. Only with the approval of the team doctor can he continue to play in the summer league."

Yi Jianlian, who was changing clothes in the locker room, heard that Zhang Jun was injured. He stood up slightly nervously and even prepared to go to the opposite locker room to take a look.

"I don't know where that guy was injured."

Pointing roughly at the interview screen that continued to play, and then at himself, Yi Jianlian suddenly remembered something and looked embarrassed.

"I remember I didn't use much force!"

Wang Shipeng smiled and said: "Could it be that you were injured because you didn't use too much force?"

Wang Zhizhi and Liu Wei laughed out loud.

Yi Jianlian cursed unhappily: Two idiots.

Zhu Fangyu was lying on the wardrobe, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

........

Las Vegas.

The Trail Blazers achieved a record of 5 wins and 1 loss, marking a perfect end to this summer league.

Zhang Jun averaged 43 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists per game, becoming the highest scoring average in the history of the summer league.

All fans are already immune to this data and performance, and even take it for granted. In their eyes, Zhang Jun should be this powerful.

Aldridge performed well in the last game, having his best performance in the Summer League with a double-double of 26 points and 10 rebounds.

This is Zhang Jun's second time in Las Vegas, and he doesn't know when he will come here next time, so Aldridge suggested going out for a walk.

Looking at the women walking around the street, Aldridge put his hand in and pressed it.

"No matter how many people spit in the cave, I still want to go in and sleep."

"Look at these lovely women. People in other places are looking for trousers. They are looking for threads."

Zhang Jun has long been used to Aldridge's flirtatious remarks.

This guy looks like a human being, and as long as he opens his mouth, he is the most beastly star in the crowd.

"Where are we going now?"

Zhang Jun couldn't help but look at Aldridge who insisted on taking him out and asked.

Because Las Vegas law stipulates that all hotels require people to be over 21 years old, and drinking and gambling also require people to be over 21 years old.

The good thing is that you only need to be over 18 years old to watch gambling and adult performances, which is why Aldridge insisted on sneaking out.

"What are you thinking about? Just take a look. You really dare to go in and give it a try. You are 19 years old and I am 1 month shy of turning 21. It would be great if you can take a look."

Aldridge cursed.

Zhang Jun couldn't help but sigh, it would be great if Blake Lively was here.

Aldridge suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, do you know everything about rookies?"

Zhang Jun shook his head, wondering what Aldridge meant by this.

Aldridge sighed, as if falling into painful memories.

"There is an unwritten rule in the NBA that new rookie players entering the league must run errands and work for the veterans, which means they will be bullied for a period of time."

"These are everyone's default rules. Even though you are the No. 1 pick, I am still the No. 2 pick last year. I should be bullied or bullied. I can't escape."

"Don't say that I didn't take care of you. I'll give you a heads up in advance."

Zhang Jun nodded. He still knew about veterans bullying rookies, but we were all on the same team and were good brothers who wanted to fight side by side. If it was just running errands and doing work, Zhang Jun would be fine. opinion.

Seeing Zhang Jun nodding so cheerfully, Aldridge couldn't help but want to laugh.

"You really think you're just running errands and doing work."

"Those veterans have very weird personal habits. You have never seen or heard of them. I experienced them myself last year."

Aldridge looked around, made sure no one was around, and whispered, "Some veterans like to tease birds."

"Some veterans like the rookies to pinch their feet. The key is that they have to sing to entertain them."

"Some require rookie players to wear red when playing in games. Even more bizarre, they ask you to watch him with your eyes open while he sleeps, saying something about appreciating his majesty as a man."

"Damn it, he's so majestic."

Seeing Aldridge's righteous words and emotional excitement, Zhang Jun couldn't help but ask: "How many of these weird habits have you encountered in the past year?"

Hearing this, Aldridge suddenly stopped, looked at Zhang Jun with trembling lips, and almost cried when he pursed his lips.

Zhang Jun hurriedly patted Aldridge on the shoulder comfortingly, took a deep breath and said: "It's okay, kid, it's all over. You are no longer a first-year student. You can be considered a veteran who has been playing for one year. People can bully you no more.”

Aldridge nodded aggrievedly, and finally warned: "Be careful of that big black fat guy Zach Randolph, this guy is ruthless."

Zhang Jun nodded and was about to say something else when the door of a bar suddenly opened and a heavy object was thrown out of it.

Then three bartenders came out, crossed their arms and said, "You rotten drunkard, this is not a community or a park, there is no free food for you."

"Look clearly, this is a tavern! Vegas Tavern!"

"It's really disgusting. Are you Asian? Yellow? I won't give it to anyone."

"Hey! What do you mean by this!" Zhang Jun stood up and said very unhappy when he heard that the other party was insulting Asians and yellow people.

One of the bartenders was tall and thick. Seeing someone who dared to stand up and talk to him, he walked over and wanted to start a fight. However, he endured it after seeing the tall and powerful physiques of Zhang Jun and Aldridge.

Another bartender frowned and reminded: "Wait a minute, why does this kid look like the guy who is very popular recently, the one who broke the record in the summer league."

The bartender behind him opened his eyes wide and said with certainty: "That's him, this year's No. 1 pick, Zhang Jun of the Trail Blazers."

"Hey, let's forget it. We can't afford to offend NBA people."

The rich and powerful people in the bar also backed down, but they refused to admit defeat and said: "It is natural to pay for drinking. How come you can't say anything about it?"

Zhang Jun took out the only $300 he had from his pocket and gave it to the other party. This was the remaining bonus from Alford and West German coaches after the UCAA championship.

The three bartenders nodded with satisfaction, turned back to the tavern, and closed the door vigorously.

"Hey, man, come here."

Aldridge saw the heavy object clearly, and it turned out to be a drunk man. His appearance seemed to be that of an Asian.

The other person had messy hair and a beard. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't know he was a human being.

Zhang Jun lowered his head and looked at the other person who suddenly seemed to be conscious. He took 200 US dollars from Aldridge's pocket and stuffed it into the other person's hand.

"If you have the hands and feet, take care of yourself and find a job that you can do. If you don't want to, don't go to others to drink Bawang wine."

"Don't think about getting something for nothing. If you want a luxurious life, you have to work hard. Don't embarrass Asians anymore."

"By the way, I have a message for you. We will neither steal nor rob. We will not take anything that does not belong to us."

"My mother said it."

Aldridge pointed to the $200 and reminded Zhang Jun: "That's my money."

Zhang Jun patted Aldridge on the shoulder and said, "Just treat it as a good deed. When you return to the team, I will promote your virtues."

Aldridge stood up and cursed: "Come on, reputation is useless, remember to pay back the money."

The two of them left after talking and playing around. Halfway through, Zhang Jun suddenly heard a hoarse voice behind him.

"Bells, drums, delicacies and jade are not expensive, but I hope I will stay drunk and not wake up."

"Money is useless!"

Zhang Jun shook the clothes on his shoulders and whispered: "You can't tell that this guy is still Chinese, um, a cultural person."

.........

After the summer league, Zhang Jun and Aldridge returned to the team to report.

General manager Steve Patterson was very satisfied with the performance of the two and told them to work hard and prepare to win more games for the team in the new regular season.

When it was Zhang Jun's turn, Steve Patterson said emphatically: "Our boss Paul Allen rarely pays attention to a rookie player. In fact, he rarely pays attention to everything about the team."

"You got his attention, keep working hard."

General managers of other rookie teams are very happy with their rookie, just like their own children, waiting for him to grow up and become the most dazzling player on the NBA court, but Zhang Jun always feels that Shi Steve Patterson doesn't like himself very much.

He couldn't help but ask: "What does Mr. Steve Patterson think of me?"

Steve Patterson paused and glanced at Zhang Jun, then said: "If you can win the Rookie of the Year award this season, I will consider letting you and Luo Yin partner to become the team's twin stars, but now I only think You are a player who has performed well in the NCAA and Summer League."

"Of course, your performance so far is quite good, and I am quite satisfied, but I am more professional than the boss, and a few summer league games are not enough to change my opinion of you."

Zhang Jun nodded. He roughly understood that Steve Patterson really didn't like him very much.

But Zhang Jun is not worried about these things. As a player, he only needs to play well and he can't care about other things.

"I want a place where I can train. Can the team provide it?"

Steve Patterson glanced at Zhang Jun in surprise and said: "The team training camp should start in mid-September. There are still two full months before that day. If you can't find it, If you want to train locally, the team’s training hall can be lent to you.”

"I will also arrange for a trainer to train with you."

Zhang Jun nodded with satisfaction. From the current point of view, Steve Patterson is at least not too bad.

Aldridge quickly pulled Zhang Jun away, and then whispered to Zhang Jun when he was far away: "Although we are all talented players, it is best not to go against the management, let alone try to anger them."

"This is the experience passed on to me by some veterans. Don't go against any of the team's management before you get a big contract."

"Because you haven't made a name for yourself in the NBA yet, they can decide your life, death, and future at will, and even trade you and put you out of business."

"They gave me an example. Kwame Brown, the No. 1 pick in 2001, only averaged 14 minutes per game and only started three games throughout the season."

"Among the top fourteen players, his average playing time per game is the lowest!"

Zhang Jun knows that Aldridge is reminding himself that although he is also the No. 1 pick, don't think that the management will bow to you like a little brother.

Pictures like that only exist in novels or movies, the real world is not like this.

Zhang Jun sighed, thinking of Paul Pierce and Dwyane Wade, the souls of the team who were randomly traded by the team in their previous lives. They were still meritorious players of their respective teams.

The more you think management will not be so cruel, but they are often more cold-blooded than you think.

Zhang Jun nodded and said, "I understand."
