Super Legendary Superstar

Chapter 12 The Song of Solomon

Speaking of which, Ricky Davis is really weird. Before the end of the game, he threw a basketball at his backboard to get a triple-double. The opponent was so angry that he pushed him to the ground. Lisloan was also stunned and stunned. In the end, he couldn't stand it anymore. He asked the referee to argue, and canceled his rebound.

Under his leadership, the Cavaliers played the worst record in the league, successfully won the No. I am also very happy: the team finally found a good helper for me!

So, in the last life, Ricky Davis, who was completely unclear about the situation, was sent away after playing 20 games with the Cavaliers this season.

Now, due to the appearance of Sun Zhuo, James hated Ricky Davis in the first game. It is estimated that this guy will have to leave in less than 20 games.

James' final debut stats were 29 points, 7 rebounds, 10 assists and 4 steals, basically comparable to Sun Zhuo's first show stats, but he played longer than Sun Zhuo. He played 43 minutes.

After the game, the reporter also went to interview James and asked: "LeBron, your debut data is almost comparable to that of the Lakers' rookie Sun Zhuo. He said that he and the Heat's Dwyane Wade are the rookies of this class What do you think is the strongest among them?"

James frowned and asked back, "Sorry, the Sun you mentioned just now... who is it?"

The reporter was taken aback. In the opening game, Sun Zhuo scored 30 points as a rookie, knocked Nowitzki down, made a lore shot, and swept the top two of the top ten shots of the day. Almost everyone in the NBA circle knew that People don't know that the Los Angeles Lakers are the most watched team in the NBA. James doesn't even know?

The reporter explained: "He is a rookie selected by the Lakers with the 24th pick in the first round. He is in the same class as you. He scored 30 points in his debut!"

James smiled after hearing this, and said, "Really? I guess Kobe must not have played, otherwise he wouldn't have so many shooting opportunities, haha, just kidding, I am very happy to be among the rookies ranked so low in the same class Such a great player, but I also know that the owners of NBA teams are not stupid. I guess me and Cameron are ahead of them, which makes a lot of people unhappy. I don't think there is anyone in this draft that is better Stronger, just wait and see, time will tell."

The reporter asked: "Are you looking forward to playing against No. 24 of the Lakers and No. 3 of the Heat to prove to everyone that you are stronger?"

James shrugged: "I'm not really looking forward to it. I don't have any impression of Sun Zhuo, so I don't have any prejudices. I just think that his jersey number is not well chosen. No. 24 doesn't look like a superstar." The number chosen, look, it's 23."

James pointed to his jersey number.

...

"Damn, James actually said that the number 24 is not the number that superstars would choose, what about Kobe? Help me fight him!" Sun Zhuo also saw James' interview video the next day, but it was not realistic to ask for Kobe's help. , Kobe is still thinking about abusing Sun Zhuo.

After the first game, the Lakers had to rest for three days in a row, and the next game will be on November 1st. Jessica Alba just established a shallow friendship with Sun Zhuo and went to work. Avoided going to the training hall, and finally met with Kobe.

At this time, Kobe, wearing the No. 8 jersey, already has the leadership and majesty of a "boss". Even off the court, he is unsmiling and does not communicate with his teammates.

In addition, the conflict between Kobe and O'Neal has reached the point of absurdity: if Kobe sees O'Neal communicating with a reporter, if that reporter interviews Kobe again, Kobe will directly refuse to accept the interview.

Likewise, if O'Neal saw a trainer on the team bandaging Bryant's ankle, he'd ask another trainer to bandage him, not the one Kobe used.

The two bosses in the team are very clear about these matters, so the team atmosphere is very bad.

Just when Kobe and O'Neal were relatively silent, Sun Zhuo appeared.

As soon as they saw Sun Zhuo, the two bosses of the Lakers quickly got up and ran towards Sun Zhuo.

"Hey, how about a date with that blonde chick?" O'Neal asked with a grin.

"Hurry up and put on your tracksuit and come one-on-one with me." Kobe stared at Sun Zhuo seriously.

Sun Zhuo smiled at O'Neal, then looked at Kobe, and said, "Kobe, you don't know how much I want to play one-on-one with you, but you should have heard Shaq say that I'm injured, and I won't be able to play in the next game."

Kobe said helplessly: "Okay, when you recover from your injury, remember, I'll be waiting for your challenge at the arena anytime!"

After finishing speaking, Kobe walked away, leaving Sun Zhuo chatting and laughing with O'Neal.

O'Neill hugged Sun Zhuo and was as close as a brother. He seemed to show it to Kobe on purpose, and asked Sun Zhuo, "Brother, why are you here so late? Although you are injured and can't train now, you still have to come to training on time." In the gym, get in touch with your teammates more, you know?"

Sun Zhuo was very sorry and said, "I'm sorry, I was busy opening stock and futures accounts today, so I was delayed."

O'Neill was very surprised: "Oh? Are you going to invest?"

Sun Zhuo smiled confidently: "Of course, at present, the main business is gold."

"Why did you choose to do gold?" O'Neill asked.

Sun Zhuo said with a smile: "Because our 2003 class is the 'golden' generation!"

In fact, the reason why Sun Zhuo dares to invest is that he really understands this area. In his previous life, Sun Zhuo’s father was an avid futures investor, especially good at making precious metals. Sun Zhuo also carefully read the trend chart of gold in the past twenty years. He is very clear about the price of gold. Now that gold is at a very low position, it will rise all the way in the next few years. Sun Zhuo only needs to do more, and if he does not move at all, his money will double.

However, at this time Kobe laughed twice: "03 is the golden generation? In front of our 96 generation, it can be regarded as silver at best."

Now that the 03 generation has not yet been played, Sun Zhuo and O'Neal have no way to refute it. It is already considered a compliment to be called silver by Kobe.

Sun Zhuo didn't care, and said loudly to all his teammates: "I'm not bragging. My father is a professional futures investor. If you follow me, you will definitely make money."

Everyone laughed a few times, but they didn't believe that Sun Zhuo had such talent. Phil Jackson asked, "Are you bullish or bearish on gold?"

"Many." Sun Zhuo replied.

Phil Jackson nodded: "Continuing geopolitical tensions, especially the terrorist attacks in the Middle East, coupled with the depreciation of the dollar, will make gold rise to a certain extent, but since the 9/11 incident in 2001, gold has been on the rise. I think the current wave of irrational gold buying is about to subside. Once the U.S. economy recovers and employment improves significantly, funds will flow from the gold market to the stock market again. At that time, the price of gold will fall. So, Sun, don’t be blindly bullish all the time .”

Zen master is worthy of being a Zen master. Not only is he familiar with all major religions and cultures, but he also read books on investment and economics.

Sun Zhuo said: "Coach, we can bet that gold will not fall in the past few years."

Phil smiled, then clapped his hands, and said, "Forget it, if it's a basketball bet, I'll still consider it. Okay, listen up, everyone, from now on, 'silent training', no one will Don't even talk, don't even sneeze."

In the strictest form of Zen, the master patrols the meditation room, beating sleeping or listless meditators with small wooden boards called "vigilances" in their hands to get them to focus.

"Policing" is sometimes called "the stick of mercy", but Phil Jackson never used "policy" in training, but chose to use some small techniques.

For example, silent training, when he was in the Chicago Bulls, he had the players do this.

Sun Zhuo just sat on the bench and watched his teammates, training in silence one by one. Kobe is a taciturn person, this kind of training is very suitable for him, O'Neal is a bit uncomfortable, and so is Karl Malone.

"Oh, I'm so excited to see this training, I really want to train with them, these guys in front of me are O'Neal, Kobe, Karl Malone! I knew it was not a fake injury." Sun Zhuo sighed with emotion.

After today's training, when everyone was about to leave, Phil Jackson called Kobe first: "Kobe, don't go yet."

Kobe stopped in his tracks, waiting for Phil Jackson to walk towards him. Phil Jackson held a book called "Captain Corelli's Mandolin" in his hand, handed it to Kobe, and said, "This book, you Take the time to take a look."

This "Captain Corelli's Mandolin" tells the story of a small Greek island after it was occupied by the Italian army during World War II. In the story, the residents of the island had to accept that they could no longer live. The fact that they control their own destiny must be united. At the end of the story, although they lost a lot, the residents of the island still won.

The Zen master gave Kobe this book in the hope that Kobe could resonate from this story, because this story is similar to Kobe's journey with the Lakers.

"Oh, good." Kobe took the book, glanced at it, and prepared to leave silently.

However, Phil Jackson's book delivery is not over yet. He likes to read books, and he also likes to give books to players to improve their spiritual level. After sending Kobe, of course, he didn't forget to send O'Neal.

Phil Jackson stopped O'Neill again: "Shaq, this "Siddhartha", you have time to read it."

"Siddhartha" is about the young prince Siddhartha who gave up his luxurious life and turned to seek spiritual enlightenment. The Zen master gave O'Neill this book in the hope that he could re-examine his obsession with the material world. Focus on something other than your personal desires, like caring more about your teammates, like, Kobe Bryant.

"Okay." O'Neill obviously didn't like reading books, and after taking them, he took them listlessly.

What the OK group didn't expect was that, besides them, someone else received a book from the Zen master.

"Sun, this book is for you." Phil Jackson walked towards Sun Zhuo again and handed him a book with a warm smile.

Sun Zhuo was flattered and thanked repeatedly.

Kobe obviously put on his clothes and packed his things, but deliberately waited until Sun Zhuo got up before walking with him.

Kobe walked towards Sun Zhuo and asked curiously, "What book did Phil give you? Take it out and let me have a look."

Sun Zhuo took out the book. On the cover of the book was written: "Song of Solomon".

boom!

After Kobe saw it, he immediately threw the "Captain Corelli's Mandolin" in his hand into the trash can.

He doesn't care what these books are about, he only knows that "Song of Solomon" is the book that Phil Jackson gave to Michael Jordan!
