Chapter 49
Chapter 48 – Upward Trading Is Also Welcome
Sid, who saw this scene on the court, couldn’t help laughing.
“Nick Yang, Nick Yang, why do you say you’re fine and mess with Zhang Jun?”
“Okay now, what are you talking about?”
Zhang Jun stood up under the pull of his good brother.
Love rubbed Zhang Jun’s head and said, “Don’t worry, there are a few brothers covering you on the court, and we will punish anyone who dares to foul you maliciously.”
Mbah a Moute patted Zhang Jun’s buttocks and said, “A free throw will take us to the final game of the regular season.”
Zhang Jun nodded and walked to the free throw line.
The fans at the scene immediately burst into extremely warm applause. The young Wade seemed to be enjoying his NCAA time, so he stood up and raised his hands at this time to signal the audience to applaud Zhang Jun.
Swish!
Free throw hit!
Zhang Jun’s offense in this round almost shattered USC’s hope of a comeback. This Los Angeles Derby, which has been expected since the beginning of the season, finally came to an end.
In the end, he won the game with 87:75.
Zhang Jun made 13 of 20 shots and 6 of 8 free throws. He was extremely versatile and scored 32 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks.
On the other hand, Nick Young of USC made 5 of 15 shots and scored 12 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists with extremely low efficiency.
The difference between the two is obvious.
Post-match interview.
“Congratulations for winning Parker’s first record in the 12th League. It’s still an excellent record of 34 wins and 1 loss.”
“This is the best record in the Parker Twelve League in 20 years, and it is also the first record in the NCAA this season.”
“You guys had a pretty perfect regular season.”
Coach Alford was full of joy and said modestly: “This is just the beginning, and the goal has never been just the regular season.”
“We will not be so ambitious at this time, talking about March Madness or championships, we will be down-to-earth and step by step, and now we will only think about the league championship game.”
The reporter couldn’t help but joked at this time: “Is there any opponent in the Parker Twelve League?”
Alford also laughed, “But it’s a one-round match after all, and we won’t take it lightly, but I can tell you for sure that Zhang Jun has no opponent in the Parker 12 League!”
At this time, some reporters were curiously looking for Zhang Jun. It stands to reason that he performed so well against Nick Young tonight, so he should be praised by the media reporters.
“But what about others?”
Zhang Jun saw Wade and McGrady who came in through a special relationship in the player tunnel.
The two took the initiative to say hello to Zhang Jun.
Wade reached out and high-fived Zhang Jun, and McGrady gave Zhang Jun a big hug.
“Good job brother, your breakthrough is really sharp, and your footsteps are definitely the best in California.”
McGrady’s eyes seemed to be closed forever, and he shook his head in denial, “No, I think you should be the player with the best breakthrough in this year’s NCAA. I haven’t seen anyone else have such a brilliant performance like you.”
“By the way, your skin color is quite similar to my partner Yao Ming. He has been saying in front of me that there is no fellow of his in the league. It will be very happy to meet you.”
Zhang Jun is also very curious about his skin color, no matter how he looks at it, he is a yellow man, but his physical talent and the skin color of his mother Elizabeth remind him all the time, it seems that it is not the case.
The three took a group photo with the help of Wade’s assistant, and Wade gave Zhang Jun a pair of sneakers with the words: Looking forward to your entry into the NBA.
McGrady seemed much more stingy. He wrote a paragraph on the game ball and gave it to Zhang Jun.
“I think you can do everything.”
Zhang Jun accepted the blessings of the two seniors. He also saw Kobe in the audience before. The two were in California. Zhang Jun originally thought that Kobe would send him blessings or something, but he didn’t.
“The Black Mamba is indeed as lonely as the rumors say.”
Pauley Arena parking lot.
Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak called out Bryant.
“In any case, Zhang Jun is also a native of California. He helped him achieve the No. 1 record in the NCAA regular season. With such an outstanding performance, you should support the younger generation out of emotion and reason.”
Kobe knew that Mitch Kupchak wanted him to get close to Zhang Jun, and he also knew why he wanted to get close.
“I haven’t gotten to the point where I can casually befriend a young man.”
Mitch Kupchak knew that Kobe was not such a cold-blooded person, he just liked to pretend to be cool and handsome, and he was a little… sullen.
However, the event of O’Neal’s East Tour championship did make Kobe feel bad all season.
All the media are laughing at Kobe, he is nothing without O’Neal, and the three championships were also won by O’Neal.
In particular, O’Neal is not a fuel-efficient lamp. After winning the championship, he said: Give me any star guard, and I can win the championship! Undoubtedly became the last straw that crushed Kobe.
Mitch Kupchak has determined that Bryant has the idea of applying for a trade. If the Lakers have not done anything this season, then a trade is inevitable.
“Both Jesse Bass and scout Kaffi Miles strongly recommended that we draft Zhang Jun this summer. I saw his full performance today, and it was indeed worth my first-round price to trade him~ www.mtlnovel.com~ Sitting in the driver’s seat, Kobe turned off the engine and looked up at Mitch Kupchak.
“He ranks 16th among college students in the United States. Can the Lakers pick him?”
The current record of the Lakers ranks seventh in the Western Conference. It is really tight to use next year’s draft pick to win Zhang Jun.
Mitch Kupchak promises: “Trade up as long as it takes.”
Kobe was silent for a while, thinking back to Zhang Jun’s breakthrough singles on the court, it was really the case, but he was a little too young.
Kobe couldn’t wait to win the championship, he really didn’t have time to wait for a rookie to grow.
But Kobe suddenly remembered how his idol treated his teammates. After a while, he said definitely: “Bring him to the Lakers, and I will teach him how to win the championship.”
………
The other side of the parking lot.
Sonics general manager Sam Presti made a call to an assistant.
“Report me ESPN’s latest five-star college rankings at any time, and pay attention to Zhang Jun’s position.”
“Also, give me a plane ticket to Texas, and I’m going to see another college student.”
Trail Blazers general manager Steve Patterson saw an agitated Sam Presti around the corner and overheard his entire conversation.
He asked with doubts on his face: “Don’t the Sonics have two guns – Ray Allen and Rashad – Lewis?”
“What does it mean to pay attention to Zhang Jun?”
………
After the game, Zhang Jun once again felt the change in his mind.
He immediately hid in the shower room, and with a thought, a white transparent frame quickly appeared.
