NBA, Yao Ming is back!

Black braised eggs certainly won't appear so early.

If Black Lu Dan appears, he'll definitely be at the back, since he's the kind of person who always arrives last, even among the 75 Great Stars, and leaves as soon as he's done.

His time.

Sometimes they really are more valuable than other star players.

After all, that's what he's doing right now.

That's a man who's said to be busier than the President of the United States.

Just two years ago, even the president had to beg him to return to power.

This time, the training camp was merged to save time; he didn't want to waste five days and four nights here.

It's that simple.

If someone else said this, Nike would probably be furious, but this is what Black Lu Dan said.

Nike had no choice but to comply.

Follow your heart, understand?

Everyone has to do this to their own God of Wealth.

This is also the respect that one should show to one's own God of Wealth.

Therefore, the black braised egg will only arrive after one day and one night.

This request perfectly suited Blackie's idea; when he was happy, he was still Michael Jordan.

Nike remains his favorite company.

The influence of Michael Jordan while he was still playing was terrifying. If he were to announce now that he was switching to another company, especially Adidas, which is currently competing with Nike, Nike's stock price would probably collapse.

After all, his comeback and retirement would cause stock prices to fluctuate across the United States.

In this era, he calls himself the Black Jesus.

That's a perfectly standard physical explanation.

Many people were disappointed that Jordan didn't come, but the competition still had to go on, and it wasn't just Jordan who came.

Whether Jordan comes or not doesn't matter. There's always been a rule in the one-on-one training camp: if you can win the one-on-one championship, you'll be eligible to have a one-on-one match with Jordan.

This is also the best opportunity for him to make a name for himself, after all, he can now be associated with Jordan.

That means traffic.

More than 80 people quickly began their competition, overcoming obstacles along the way.

It has to be said that, even though they are all high school students, the gap between them is huge. They will keep playing until they find an opponent of the same level.

The final list of contestants for this one-on-one challenge consists of twelve people.

The coaching staff randomly drew lots on-site to directly divide the teams into two main competition zones.

[Upper Half]

McGrady, Odom, Baron Davis, Battier, Kenny Gregory, Liu Wei.

[Lower Half]

Yao Ming, Ron Artest, Elton Brand, Jason Collins, Dion Glover, Tyson Chandler.

First round matchup

5. Bottom half: Ron Artest vs. Dion Glover

6. Bottom half: Brand vs. Tyson Chandler

……

The first match of the first round was between Liu Wei and Kenny Gregory.

Although Gregory was a senior in high school and failed to make it to the NBA, he was a veteran powerhouse among high school players in the United States. He had solid physical strength, a steady shot, and very refined fundamentals.

He regularly plays high-intensity national tournaments in the United States.

Although Liu Wei's strength has improved since following Yao Ming, he was having a really bad day and kept missing shots.

Seeing that his shooting touch was off, Gregory started to give him more space to shoot and targeted his positioning, winning the game 11-9.

Liu Wei was so angry that he stomped his feet.

He was muttering some incoherent words:

If this weren't a 5v5, I would definitely beat you to a pulp. I'm the assist king of the international training camp.

One-on-one is not my domain.

But in Yao Ming's eyes, he had actually played quite well. The reason is simple: Wei, you wouldn't have made it into the top twelve at all; you would have been eliminated very quickly.

We've arrived here.

That's already a huge step forward.

So be content, Dawei.

You've done a fantastic job.

Yao Ming was initially matched up against Jason Collins, one of the NBA's most dominant underperformers, averaging 3 points and 3 rebounds per game.

That's how he managed to stay in the NBA for 13 years.

In a league where the average player only plays for three or four years, to have someone with these stats last this long is truly thanks to the shadow that O'Neal cast over the league.

Various stockpiled large meat shields and muscle sticks.

Otherwise, if someone like him had entered the league 10 years or so later, he wouldn't even have a chance to play. After all, after 13 years as a seven-footer, his field goal percentage was a staggering 41%...

But he is indeed an NBA-level player.

At first, he glared fiercely at Yao Ming. After all, he was quite large; otherwise, why would he be called a meat shield? He weighed the same as Yao Ming, but because he was much shorter, he appeared much more robust.

"Come on, Easterners!"

"Besides being tall, you're nothing!"

Yao Ming: ...

The environment in the United States is indeed worse than that in international training camps.

Trash talk, here it comes.

Yeah, hey buddy, not bad.

"Um, I have a question for you."

Huh? Collins was stunned for a moment, then his defenses were breached in the next second.

"Um, are you sure your dad is your biological dad?"

Collins: !!!

That's a classic black three-piece suit.

Come to think of it, my dad doesn't really look that much like him; he seems more like that Jason Wang guy in the neighborhood.

……

"You can go first! You won't score a single point under the basket!"

"brush--"

Really? Yao Ming just looks up and shoots. Why should I go to the basket?

Want to fight a man under the basket?

Not interested in.

brush--

"It was just one ball, you got lucky. Go ahead and try again if you dare!"

brush--

"Go ahead and keep throwing; let's see how many you make!"

brush--

"Go ahead and throw it again!"

brush--

After scoring consecutive goals, Collins realized something was wrong; they were about to win.

American bullfighting is all about fighting from start to finish.

Thinking of this, even though his mind wasn't particularly sharp, he immediately said:

"Come in if you dare!"

brush--

Yao Ming raised his hand and shot.

"Why aren't you coming in? Are you even a man?! If you're a man, stop dawdling and come in right now!"

brush--

Collins: !!!

"No, I'm all ready. What do you mean by not coming in?"

brush--

"Please come in right now, I'm begging you!!!"

His string of words left everyone in the audience dumbfounded.

If I didn't know this was a basketball court, and I closed my eyes, I would have thought they were saying something indecent.

It is a pity.

Why would I go to the basket and fight a muscle-bound guy like you if I could easily beat you?

I'm right outside.

I'm not going in.

You're going to be so anxious.

brush--

They finished the game easily with an 11-0 victory.

Who said you have to go inside to shoot someone?

You can shoot someone dead without even going inside.

"The ability to ejaculate is the true essence of manhood."

"Take a good look at it."

After saying that, Yao Ming patted him on the shoulder.

Collins felt like he couldn't recover for a long time.

It turns out we didn't need to go in.

That means you can shoot someone dead.

Is this the higher realm we're talking about?

Unfortunately, Chandler is still too inexperienced and can't withstand Brand's onslaught.

Yao Ming is directly up against the 99 top draft pick.

What else did Brand want to say?

Yao Ming doesn't talk to you like that.

He raised his hand and shot.

brush brush --

brush brush --

swish swish swish swish —

Your name is Brand, not Britney.

For big men like this who like to collapse and fight in the paint, having a long wingspan is useless.

Brand is indeed not tall, but he has an incredible wingspan, but even that's only a little over two meters.

With Yao Ming's current standing vertical jump of over three meters, you'd have to replace him with Britney Spears to achieve that.

Otherwise, even if you come over to defend, you'll still get slapped in the face by Yanshe.

In addition, he is only a high school student.

I never expected that someone with the height to play inside would never come to the basket.

They shot him right in the head.

His performance has already attracted the attention of many scouts, after all, Brand is a five-star high school player, a two-time New York State champion, New York State Mr. Basketball, and a 1997 McDonald's All-American.

So, he was eliminated before he even had a chance to make a move?

Collins felt much better after seeing this. See...

I knew East Asians could shoot!

You still don't believe me.

But he didn't expect that after Brand was eliminated, a gaze would be blatantly directed at him—

Turning around, hey!

This is not the King of the Auburn Hills Palace.

Is it Tadashi, Artest?

He was also my former good teammate.

Why is he looking at me like that? I don't think I've ever offended him.

Actually, there really is, because in high school, Artest, Brand, and Odom played AAU together.

All three were members of the Riverside Eagles.

I saw someone bullying my own people.

If I don't teach you a lesson, what will become of me, the son of New York?

Don't cry, brother!

I, Taizi, will go upstairs later and teach him a lesson for you!
