NBA Backer King: Chapter 338 Plum Blossom Pile

   Chapter 338 Apprentice Plum Blossom Pile

   "Human Movie Essence?"

   hung up the phone, and little Colangelo began to consider the pros and cons of this introduction.

Wilkins is known as the essence of human movies, and Jordan and Drexler are also called flying men, top scorers, and super dunks. Affecting his score, his physical fitness exploded.

But he also has weaknesses. His mid-to-long-range shooting ability is average, he is good at breaking through, his ability to handle the ball is average, his left hand is mediocre, his ability to combine with the ball and his ability to hold the ball are average, and his defense is poor, and his single defense and help defense are equally bad. This is also where he is not as good as Jordan. , Seriously partial, and Jordan is the top offense and defense.

   Also, the ball is not good enough, some sticky balls, which can be called a black hole of ball power.

   is arrogant and not a qualified locker room leader.

  Advantage, he has the advantage of catching the ball with his back, then turning over the jumper and the hook after the breakthrough. He also developed a three-pointer this year, reaching a 38% hit rate.

   In addition, he has a strong ability to drill through the seam, and has a strong ability to attack the basket after receiving the ball in the middle. It is with this that he can compete with Jordan in scoring.

   His real position is not a swingman, but a small forward. At the 3rd position, his ranking is only below Larry Bird.

   If you compare the number two, he's even just below Jordan.

  Because of this, no matter whether he played at the 3rd or 2nd position, he was overwhelmed by Larry Bird and Jordan during the entire peak period and could not stand out.

  After entering the 1990s, Larry Bird retired, but Pippen stepped up, and Barkley often played at the 3 position, and he was still pressed to death at the 3 position.

   So Wilkins' career was painful and sad.

But there is no doubt about his ability. At the 3rd position, he is the best one-on-one scorer. He reached 30+ last season, and the scoring efficiency is not bad, but the efficiency is not as good as the output, that is, the score is more, but the efficiency is not enough, but the scoring ability is stronger than Pippen, only in defense and organization.

   After thinking about it, Jr. Colangelo felt that Wilkins should still be introduced. Although he has various weaknesses, he can make up for the team's scoring ability, and the Suns are indeed lacking people now.

   But he has to talk to Wilkins carefully. First of all, the issue of the ball will definitely not be handed over to him. His task in the Suns is to score and play without the ball.

  Others can only be decided after consultation with the coaching staff.

   Soon, he contacted Westphal who was on vacation.

  Westphal was also happy to hear that a superstar like Wilkins offered to join the Suns.

  Although Wilkins is old, he is still in shape and should be able to help old K.

After thinking about it, he said: "Brian, his mid-to-long-range shooting ability is average, similar to the type of the original Ceballos, and he is good at breaking through.

   Therefore, in the Suns' tactical system, they can only play on the weak side, and use the attraction of old K in the low post on the strong side to create opportunities for him to break in.

   But he has three points now, he is better than Ceballos, we can use him more.

   But his defense is not good, and the single defense and help defense are just as bad, so the defense of other positions must be strengthened, otherwise it will not make up for his loophole.

   But no matter how we make it up, our perimeter defense next season is definitely not as good as last season. If we encounter the Bulls, we will suffer a lot. "

   The two discussed on the phone for a long time before ending the call.

  Jr. Colangelo decided to introduce Wilkins, which is better than lacking someone, and the Suns don’t have to pay any price to introduce Wilkins.

   When his father Sr. Colangelo signed into AC Green, he gave a big contract because Green joined as a free agent and the team did not have to pay the transaction price.

However, the situation of the team is different now. It is impossible for him to give a big contract because Wilkins is a complete free agent. There is no room for that, and Wilkins is too old. He just wants to introduce the veteran with the basic salary , so that the team has room to continue to introduce powerful players.

  The next day, Wilkins and his agent John Max arrived in Phoenix and met Colangelo Jr. at the Suns headquarters.

  After a brief greeting, the two sides did not waste each other's precious time. One party was in a hurry to find someone, and the other party was in a hurry to find a home, so they went straight to the topic.

   Colangelo Jr. first made it clear that Wilkins would not get the opportunity to control the ball in the Suns.

  The Suns’ ball possession, after the Lightning’s strength began to decline, has begun to be transferred to the old K’s hands. It was shared by gliders last season, but Wilkins, the ball possession black hole, was unable to control the ball.

  It is a lie that Wilkins is not disappointed. He is not valued tactically in the green team, so he chose to refuse to renew his contract and would rather go to Europe to play.

   But the Suns are different from the Greens. There is hope of winning the championship here, and the team has an old K. Although he is a veteran superstar, he is not qualified to show his qualifications in front of the old K.

   Little Colangelo is now clearly telling him that the ball is in the hands of the Lightning and the old K, and he died of his heart to control the ball.

   So for the championship, he said that he can accept not controlling the ball, and he will play without the ball next season.

   This is the most important point, involving tactics and status. Once this is resolved, there will be a basis for continuing the negotiation, and then the two sides will continue to negotiate.

   After addressing these issues, it comes to salary issues.

   Little Colangelo knows his team's salary space clearly, and will not give him a contract just because Wilkins is big enough.

First of all, the old K occupies the space of 3.54 million US dollars, Tisdale is 3.48 million next season, Robert Horry is 1.6 million, Mario Bennett 480,000, Kevin Johnson 2.9 million, Elliott Perry 203 Wan, Michael Finley 630,000, Wesley Posen 850,000, the current total of eight contract players is 15.51 million US dollars, and the salary cap is 23 million, which is close to 7.5 million US dollars.

   There are only 8 players now. If we count the 15-man roster, there are still 7 players left. At most, one spot will be reserved to prevent accidents. At least 6 players must be signed in for $7.5 million.

Moreover, he also has to prepare for next year's rookies. He has four first-round picks in his hand, that is, four first-round rookies. The contract will not be small when added up, so the next signings can't sign big contracts, and try to do as much as possible. Don't sign long-term contracts.

After    figured it out, he offered Wilkins a three-year, $1 million veteran contract, 500,000 for next season and 250,000 for the next two seasons.

"what?"

  John Max looked shocked, which made little Colangelo feel embarrassed, feeling that he had done something unjustifiable.

John Max shook his head again and again, with a very dissatisfied expression: "This is too little, too little, Mr. Colangelo, Dominicas can contribute at least 20+ per game, he should not take this kind of veteran's basic salary, absolutely not Can.

   This is also his last contract, not only are you not showing sincerity, but this contract is humiliating him. "

   On the other hand, Wilkins doesn’t seem to have any indications. The three-year contract has reached his goal. He is here for the championship, and the salary is secondary.

In fact, he is already prepared to take the basic salary. Since he is here for the championship, if his salary takes up too much space, the Suns will not be able to continue to strengthen. Players, you can't sign in if you don't have space.

   "Mr. Max, according to Dominic's performance last season, this is of course lower, but you should also know the current lineup of the Suns. We are only eight people, plus you..."

Little Colangelo looked at Wilkins and explained sincerely: "There are only nine people, we still have some space to sign at least three players, if there are not enough 12-man roster, then no, right?

Besides, Dominic is indeed very old, and the state of the next three seasons cannot be unknown at all. This is related to the possibility of whether the team can win the championship in the next three seasons. We cannot open a big contract for a veteran who is almost forty years old. .

   And the reason why the Dominicas chose us is because we have the strength to win the championship and the strong desire to hit the championship, so please think about it and give each other a chance. "

   "We need to think about it," John Max said solemnly.

   "Please." Little Colangelo nodded. He then left his office and gave it to the two of them.

   As soon as he left, John Max's angry and serious expression just now turned into a helpless expression. He shook his head and said to Wilkins: "Dominic, do you really want to stay here? This is your chance to make your final decision."

   "I'm finally a veteran!"

  Wilkins only considered for two seconds, sighed with emotion, then nodded and said, "For the championship."

   "For the championship."

   nodded, John Max sighed, got up and walked to the door.

  Since it's all decided, there's no need to make any adjustments. He opened the door and nodded to the little Colangelo outside, who immediately showed a happy look on his face.

After completing the signing, little Colangelo stood up and shook hands with Wilkins, and said with a smile, "Old K must be very happy to have you join. He is now in China, with a time difference of more than ten hours. , you can contact him at night, I will give you his contact information over there.

In addition, I suggest you try the medicated bath and medicated oil massage in K Martial Arts Hall, as well as acupuncture. If you persist for a long time, it will help you maintain your state, and the effect is guaranteed. Even Jordan and gliders are using it. I am also K The VIP customers of the martial arts hall have personal experience. "

   "OK."

  Wilkins smiled and said: "Drexler did recommend it to me, I must try it this time."

   At eight o'clock in the evening, he called Wang Tiejun's cell phone.

   When Pharaoh had breakfast just now, he had already received a notice from Colangelo Jr. He knew that Wilkins had attracted the Suns, so he was not surprised by the call.

   As for Wilkins, I have played a lot of games in the past three seasons, but I don't know him very well. Just now, Colangelo gave a brief introduction, and I have a better understanding.

   Anyway, he can score, but the scoring method is similar to that of Ceballos.

   He believes that Wilkins' role in the Suns should be inferior to that of the glider last season.

   Moreover, the offensive and defensive ends are not as good, and the offensive end cannot be pulled apart. If he encounters a team with strong interior defense, it will cause him to be double-teamed. The problem is even greater on the defensive end. There will be a situation where more points are scored but more points are lost, the player efficiency value becomes negative, and the more offenses, the more losses.

Wilkins has never been crowned. In fact, it has a great reason for him. Although he is also called a flying man with Jordan, his shortcomings are too great. In the face of Jordan, he actually has no competitive strength, and he is not one at all. A player of this grade, a team with him as the core, is very difficult to win the championship because of the poor perimeter defense.

But the team is rebuilding, and his requirements can't be too high. He knows that the management's goal is to draft next year. If a potential rookie is selected, then the next four or five seasons, that is, the potential rookie's rookie contract period, especially The two or three-year rookie contract period after the rookie grows up is the best period for the team to win the championship.

  …

   In late July, Wang Tiejun chartered a large passenger plane and put 400 people on a plane to the United States.

   Of these 400 people, 300 of them were massage therapists from their hometowns, some young people, some middle-aged and young people in their thirties, and the other 100 were hired Chinese medicine practitioners, especially good at acupuncture and moxibustion.

This time, he plans to open a special Chinese medicine hall under the K martial arts hall, which will manage medicated baths, medicated oil massage, acupuncture and other businesses. In addition, he will open a health hall to specialize in the medicated recipes that he has obtained this time, and then there are A martial arts hall. There are one hall and three halls, each with its own responsibility, so as to avoid all things being mixed together, which is very messy.

   After training in the capital for half a month, on the 1st of August, Tian Wang Tiejun took a few days off and had to go back to his hometown, where he stayed for two days.

   When he returned to his hometown, he was very restless, because his home had become the most lively place in the area, and there were too many people visiting every day.

   Think about it, people who follow him to the United States earn hundreds of thousands of RMB a year, what is the concept?

  For those who work outside the home now, it is only a few hundred yuan a month, and it is difficult to reach a thousand, and a few hundred thousand a year. With the current level of income, they can work for a lifetime. Who doesn’t want such an opportunity?

   In addition, many people who have gone to their homes come to express their gratitude every day. The gifts they received at home are already piled up, and it is impossible to finish eating them, so they can only exchange some things to call back.

   When he returned to his hometown this time, he brought 10 million US dollars to Cangzhou City and 5 million US dollars to Qingxian County. He first exchanged half of it, and the rest will be discussed later. The city and the county also thanked him again and again.

   At the same time, he brought the team of Hope Primary School. This team, which Bai Changsheng set up for him, is quite professional.

After    contacted the county, the team settled the office in the county and started to operate.

   This matter, Wang Tiejun didn't care about it any more. After living in his hometown for two days, he rushed back to the capital to continue his training.

  My parents and the eldest sister and the second sister also came here. Although my hometown is lively, it is really not quiet.

   At the same time, he also made an appointment with some martial arts halls, as well as a family of martial arts families who have inherited medicines in their hands, to conduct transactions on August 10th.

   The first thing to do when returning to the capital is to learn from the plum blossoms.

   On July 24th, according to the appointment, at 8:00 in the morning, Wang Tiejun, accompanied by his father Wang Aiguo, went to the Hanjia Martial Arts Hall.

He is not a trivial person either. When he was young, with his excellent body, he made a name for himself as the King of the Mountain in Cangzhou. Now he is a world-renowned basketball superstar. It has spread to China, so the Hanjia Martial Arts Academy also attaches great importance to this apprenticeship, and many masters in the martial arts world are invited to watch the ceremony.

Even the director of the Wushu Sports Management Center of the Sports Committee came here. This department is directly under the management of the Sports Committee. It is two levels higher than the basketball department. Now the basketball department is a subordinate department of the basketball department. The basketball department is even lower than the Wushu Center. level one.

This department has a research institute under it. In the late 1970s, experts in Chuanwu were invited from all over the country. From Chuanwu there was always a set of actual combat styles, that is, some sanshou in Chuanwu, not routines. , which is now Sanda.

  Under the witness of these people, Wang Tiejun officially worshipped Han Huaping as his teacher, and gave 100,000 RMB as a gift.

  This apprenticeship ceremony is unbelievable in this era, and Han Huaping was so excited that his hands were shaking.

   He is not an ordinary student, nor an ordinary apprentice, but a true disciple, and he has to teach the kung fu of housekeeping.

   Of course, it is up to Han Huaping whether to teach the one or two kung fu at the bottom of the box. Presumably for the sake of the 100,000 apprenticeship ceremony, he should be able to teach it.

After    apprenticeship, Wang Tiejun followed Han Huaping to the backyard of the martial arts hall.

   It was just the two of them and a few true disciples. When the true disciples were studying art, no one else could be present.

  The backyard has dozens of squares and is full of plum blossom piles.

This plum blossom pile is about five inches in diameter, and most of it is buried underground, with three feet and three inches exposed on it. The distance between the front and rear piles is one meter long, and the distance between the left and right piles is one foot and five inches. Pile, less than thirty.

  Han Huaping is in his early fifties this year. He is at most 1.7 meters tall, but he is very energetic and has bright eyes. He is wearing a traditional gray cardigan and cloth shoes from the old capital.

   He is undoubtedly very proud and happy to accept Wang Tiejun as a direct disciple, because this is of great significance to the spread of plum blossom piles.

   "Iron army, plum blossom piles pay attention to moving around, walking like the wind, standing like a nail, lightning in the eyes, fists like shooting stars, light hands, feet like cats..."

  Han Huaping said that, he demonstrated the walking movements of a few plum blossom piles on the spot, and then found a problem. When he was squatting and doing the movements, his eyes could only reach the thighs of the newly recruited apprentice.

   I have a bit of a toothache. I feel that Wang Tiejun is hard enough to learn his plum blossom pile. It's too big, and it's hard to learn!

   "Tie Jun, you try the pile." He pointed to the plum blossom pile and said.

"it is good."

   Lao Wang has more or less basics. After all, he has learned it, but he just doesn't know the tricks. It belongs to drawing a tiger according to a cat.

   He stepped onto a pile outside, squatted slightly, and started walking, but unfortunately he only took three steps stiffly, one step in the air, then he fell off the pile and almost fell.

   "Master, this pile is too dense!" he said awkwardly.

   "It's not that the pile is dense, it's that you are too tall and your steps are too big." Han Huaping smiled bitterly.

   "Can that be adjusted?" he asked.

  Han Huaping looked at his backyard, shook his head and said, "It's not convenient, your other brothers still need to practice."

   "Well then, my yard is big, with more than one mu of land. Master Lao will teach me later." Lao Wang smiled.

  Han Huaping can only agree, there is no other way, his house has only such a small yard, and he can't erect too many piles.
