NBA Dynasty Sniper

Chapter 184 The first meeting with Stern

“NBA Dynasty Sniper ()”

13:5, Jazz attack.

Greg Ostertag's low-post attack came again, but this time Zhao Dong elbowed back Malone who was hugging him, made a successful weak-side defense, and sent a big cap again, directly hitting the The ball fanned out of the touchline.

The Jazz attacked again, and this time they played outside. Two guards made a pick-and-roll. Shooting guard Jeff made a three-pointer, but the ball missed. Zhao Dong got stuck first and protected the backcourt rebound.

"Get back on defense!"

Jerry Sloan roared from the sidelines.

Malone returned to the defense at the first time, and Zhao Dong personally advanced with the ball, chasing behind the former, forcing Malone to the frontcourt, and then pushed into the three-point line.

"Shrink, pinch him to death!"

Jerry Sloan pinched his hands together fiercely and roared towards the field.

The Jazz players have all started to shrink their defense, enclosing Zhao Dong who entered the paint.

At this moment, Zhao Dong jumped up suddenly, and threw one hand towards the three-point line on the right wing, and the ball flew towards John Starks.

"Jump the pass! There is a big space on the outside!" Zhang Lili shouted.

John Starks aimed at the basket for two full seconds before making a shot. His defender, Jeff Horacek, was still beside Zhao Dong, three steps away from him. He wanted to return to the defense but knew it was too late. Stand there and defend with your eyes.

"Shua!"

Splashes appeared and a three-pointer was hit.

"16:5, the Knicks led by 11 points in the away game. The morale of the Jazz was broken by the flying dragon today. If you want to attack but don't attack, if you want to defend but don't defend, I think the Jazz will be defeated today, completely defeated..." Bill Walton yelled road.

"I think it has actually collapsed. There is no positive player on the field. After Stockton was humiliated, his state has been in a downturn and he has no feeling of excitement at all." Matt said.

Jazz attack.

After the outside pick-and-roll, Stockton made a three-pointer at the top of the arc, and was almost blocked by John Starks, who switched defenses. The shot was affected and missed.

The backcourt rebound was once again protected by Zhao Dong, and the Knicks attacked.

"Russell, come on!" Jerry Sloan growled.

Small forward Russell immediately came over to prevent Zhao Dong from going down quickly, and the Knicks switched to a positional battle.

Zhao Dong held the ball and stopped two steps away from the top of the arc, making tactical gestures.

This is a cutting tactic, the inside line comes out from the basket, and the pick-and-roll is made for the outside line on the wing, and the outside line cuts in through the wall to form an opportunity for an air cut.

Alan Houston started an inside cut from the left wing, and Malone chased and defended.

In front of Zhao Dong was the small forward Rahaner. When Houston cut into the paint, he also suddenly started, and after easily knocking Russell away, he went from the top of the arc to the basket.

Alan Houston went to the basket and saw Zhao Dong also rushing down. He didn't stop and rushed past the basket.

At this time, Ma Long just caught up to the basket and found Zhao Dong flying over from above, so he hurriedly jumped up to block the shot.

"boom!"

The sound of basket blasting sounded violently in the Delta Center Arena.

"oh!"

When they saw Ma Long being knocked into the air by Zhao Dong, the home fans exclaimed, and many of them closed their eyes, unable to bear to watch any more.

"Boom!"

Under the powerful impact, with Ma Long's tonnage and strength, it was impossible to block Zhao Dong's impact when he was blocking the shot in the air. Out.

"The flying dragon crazily hit the Jazz's basket. The terrifying impact made the postman Malone's defense collapse at a touch. He was knocked into the air! Under the premise of the same tonnage and better upper body strength, he still couldn't stop the terrifying impact of the flying dragon... "

In the TNT live broadcast, Bill Wharton roared with excitement.

"It's too strong! Hahaha, Zhao Dong who rushed up is too strong!" Zhang Lili danced excitedly.

"This ball is so enjoyable to watch! The visual effect is so exciting!" Sun Zhenping laughed excitedly.

"Don't just watch the game, Mr. Sun, hurry up and explain!" The director hurriedly reminded.

"Oh..." Sun Zhenping laughed awkwardly.

Zhang Lili smiled and said: "I think the tone of this game can be set. Feilong played too strongly, and the morale of the Jazz has been destroyed. It will be very difficult to get back."

"Mr. President, news came from TNT that the game was one-sided. After three quarters, the Jazz fell behind by 20 points and gave up the game. The Knicks replaced the Dragons, and the ratings immediately plummeted."

"I see."

At the Union headquarters in New York, Stern received the notice, and his face was very ugly.

"The Jazz shouldn't be allowed to enter the finals. If the Mosaic team enters the finals, it should look better." He regretted a little.

"The West still lacks a strong team. There is no strong team at the championship level. It is not competitive with the Bulls and the Knicks at all."

"I hope that today's draft will bring something to the Western Conference teams."

"Tim Duncan should be a very good rookie. Unfortunately, the Spurs are a small team and cannot tap his commercial value."

Now he feels that Shaquille O'Neal's Westward Journey is a very good deal. As long as the Lakers continue to strengthen, they will become a strong team in the West.

In Game 4 of the finals, after the Jazz gave up in the final quarter, the Knicks won the game by 26 points 65:91 and won the game without any suspense.

Three to one, the Knicks lead the Jazz by a big score, and the championship is in sight.

In 33 minutes, Zhao Dong made 13 of 18 shots, more than 70% of his field goals, and 5 of 6 free throws. He scored 31 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals, 6 blocks, 1 turnover and 3 fouls.

"Feilong, advertisers are chasing me now. As long as you sign the contract, twenty million dollars a year will be yours."

Just as Zhao Dong returned to the locker room, his agent Ringo Wells called.

"Twenty million dollars a year?" Zhao Dong was not surprised.

Because he knew that after Vince Carter completed the death fly dunk in the Olympic Games in the last life, he made 30 million US dollars through advertising in a year.

Although he didn't fly over a center forward, he flew over Stockton. This is a superstar, not the unknown guy that Carter flew over. The influence he caused is definitely not as good as that of Carter, but the influence should be OK.

"Choose one, don't accept all." Zhao Dong said.

Now he can accept advertising endorsements, but he doesn't plan to accept them in the future. He will definitely not be short of money in the future, but now he can accumulate some original funds through endorsements.

"OK!"

Ringo Wells roared excitedly.

"Feilong, how many advertisements have you received?" Oakley asked concerned after hearing a little.

"Ahem, not much. Wells said that he can earn 20 million a year." Zhao Dong said lightly.

"oh!"

The entire locker room exclaimed.

"Flying dragon! Flying dragon..."

When they arrived in New York at noon the next day, a large number of fans went to the airport to greet the team. The team lined up from the airport to the urban area, and the voices calling for Zhao Dong kept coming and going.

Sitting in the bus, Zhao Dong waved to the fans outside, each time causing cheers and car horns to blare wildly.

"You guys have completely replaced Patrick's position in New York." Oakley laughed beside him.

"Do you think I'm worthy?" Zhao Dong turned to his teammates with a smile.

"Boss, don't let the team trade me during the offseason. I want to follow you to build a dynasty." Larry Johnson shouted.

Zhao Dong was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.

Larry Johnson was the No. 1 pick back then. Although he doesn't have the strength of an All-Star now, it makes him very happy that such a person calls him the boss in public.

"Boss, I don't want to leave either." Rookie rookie John Wallace yelled.

"Boss, I also want to be a dynasty." Rookie McCarty shouted.

These two competed with Zhao Dong for playing time at the beginning, but now they are willing to call Zhao Dong the boss, without any reluctance, and they call it very smoothly.

"Boss, can we win the dynasty?" Alan Houston asked excitedly.

"Everyone works together, and our dynasty can be expected."

Hearing Houston, a former competitor, called him the boss, Zhao Dong was instantly overwhelmed. He stood up and said to everyone:

"Even if the strong teams of the Bulls strengthen, we will not lose to them. Next season, we will definitely be one of the strongest teams in the league, or even none."

Grant was sitting at the front. Hearing Zhao Dong's words, he couldn't help thinking.

Ewing was seriously injured. He was seriously injured at this age, and it was the most critical knee. The state of next season would definitely decline, or even fall off a cliff.

Ewing's state has seriously declined, and Larry Johnson may continue to decline due to back injuries. Oakley is another year old, and the two old Williams are also one year older. If there is no reinforcement next season, Nick Sri Lanka's strength is definitely not as good as it is now.

Last offseason, he and the management refused to trade O'Neal with Ewing, and even fired Nelson at Ewing's request, but now, he will not refuse to trade Ewing.

Even, he glanced at Van Gundy next to him, and he wanted to replace the head coach who had just won the best coach honor.

Van Gundy's performance in the playoffs did not meet his expectations. If it weren't for Zhao Dong's super performance, the Knicks would have been finished.

There is also Larry Johnson, the first billionaire in the league. He ate this super big contract with tens of millions left, and he was also cheated to death. He also needs to be dealt with, otherwise a huge hole will be formed.

With the performance of Feilong, the Knicks will definitely not implement the fourth-year contract. After the end of the three seasons, they must give a sky-high contract in advance. Before that, all the garbage contracts of the team must be cleaned up. The contract extension after two seasons is ready for everything.

He calculated that the total annual salary for next season will be as high as 55 million U.S. dollars, exceeding the salary cap of next season by 28 million U.S. dollars.

And if Ewing and Larry Johnson are traded, then the contracts of the two veterans are dealt with, and a few players with actual combat capabilities are replaced, it should be good.

Of course, the most important thing is not money. The Knicks are not short of money, and the boss is not afraid to spend money. The most important thing is the team's lineup.

Back at the training base, Zhao Dong drove directly to Lindsay's home.

He didn't even think about informing Lindsay, because he knew that Lindsay must be staying at home, and the girl still kept her previous living habits, and she rarely had social activities before, even less after leaving Mrs. Dorisa.

"Flying dragon?"

The doorbell rang, and Lindsay looked through the cat's eyes, saw that it was Zhao Dong, and laughed.

"Are you tired from the competition?" She asked after letting Zhao Dong in.

"Not tired. By the way, how is the market recently?"

Zhao Dong asked when he saw the notebook on the sofa with a foreign exchange interface on it.

"It's not bad. Madam Dorisa's operation is mainly prudent. Most of the funds are kept as reserves, and the leverage is 50 times. Although there is no huge profit, the funds are very safe, and the floating profit on the book has reached 50%. However, she has not received news about the financial policy of Taiguo so far, so she has no way to make a big bet." Lindsay laughed.

"It shouldn't be too late, Taiguo is still holding on, and only when it can't hold on, will it seek change." Zhao Dong pointed.

"Feilong, went to Salt Lake City to fight again?"

Lindsay put the water glass in front of Zhao Dong, then sat beside him, and naturally took his arm.

Zhao Dong has a feeling that Lindsay has been with Mrs. Dorisa since he was a child, and has been very dependent on her, but now this dependence seems to be gradually shifting to him.

When the two were together, they could talk about everything, and there were very few secrets. Lindsay also asked him to teach her to speak Mandarin, because she had a foundation and learned it quite quickly.

"Teach that bastard postman a lesson. He tricked us, otherwise we would have swept away and won the championship." He said a little angrily.

"Will fighting too much affect your development?" Lindsay asked with some concern.

"Probably not, I only fought with the postman twice, and I didn't fight with others. Besides, Jordan is old, how many years can he maintain his peak? He is going downhill, and the league can't rely on me to support him." ?” Zhao Dong said with a grin.

"blow!"

Lindsay scoffed.

"Let's go, Aiweier, let's go grocery shopping. I'll make some vegetarian dishes for you today." Zhao Dong stood up.

"What is Vegetarian Food?" Lindsay asked curiously.

"It's the vegetarian dishes that monks eat, and you have to avoid the five meat dishes. The five meat dishes are vegetables such as onions, garlic, and leeks..." Zhao Dong explained.

"Wait for me, I'm going to change clothes." Lindsay hurriedly said.

After a busy afternoon, she made three dishes and one soup, which made the girl smile and praised Zhao Dong as a flower.

"Feilong, this is the best, I still want to eat it."

The girl pointed to a plate with only a little juice left.

"This is called Vegetarian Chicken Drumstick with Western Juice. It's burnt and has a good taste. I'll make it for you next time." Zhao Dong smiled happily.

As a chef, he is happiest when he hears the compliments from diners, and he is no exception.

"Uh-huh."

...

On this day, the media's speculation about the championship has almost been set, that is, the Knicks will win the third NBA championship since the team was founded.

In the speculation of the major media, the Jazz's chances of winning the championship have dropped to a pitiful 3%.

June 10th is the match day of the G5 finals.

The Knicks have a match point in hand, and the championship will be tonight. Since the afternoon, the outside of Madison Square Garden has been surrounded by fans.

The Knicks also decorated this basketball holy land, and the atmosphere is more lively than the holidays.

As the night falls, Madison Square Garden shines brightly under the costumes of various celebrities and celebrities.

As the Knicks team bus approached, countless fans cheered.

"Flying dragon! Flying dragon..."

Huge cheers erupted as Zhao Dong stood up and waved to the fans.

Entering the underground parking lot, Zhao Dong got off the bus and asked the others to go to the locker room first. He had to wait for Lindsay.

Five or six minutes later, Lindsay's car drove in.

In fact, she had already been outside and was stuck in traffic for almost twenty minutes, unable to get in.

"is it beautiful?"

After getting out of the car, Lindsay walked around in front of Zhao Dong while pulling her skirt, and asked expectantly.

Zhao Dong is likely to win the championship today. She chose this rose red dress specially, hoping for a good omen.

"Pretty! Very beautiful!" Zhao Dong nodded and smiled.

"Like it?"

"like."

Lin Sai came over and took Zhao Dong's arm, and said with a smile, "As long as you like it."

"If I win the championship tonight, how about you being my girlfriend in tomorrow's street parade?" Zhao Dong asked.

"OK."

Lindsay looked at Zhao Dong with gentle eyes, and nodded slightly.

When the two appeared at Madison Square Garden, they immediately attracted cheers from the fans and all the media shots, and the sound of the shutter clicking was endless.

Passing by the front row, Zhao Dong kept saying hello to those celebrities.

Lindsay's princess-like temperament properly suppressed all the female stars. Facing the greetings of the stars, she responded to them one by one with a reserved nod.

"Hey, Brother Chenglong."

When he came to the seat, Zhao Dong greeted him.

He gave Chenglong a first-row ticket, but it was always empty anyway, wasted.

"Brother Feilong, thank you for the ticket!" Chenglong said with a grin.

"Flying Dragon is fine, you can also call me Zhao Dong, I am still a few days away from twenty, and you are about two rounds younger than you." Zhao Dong laughed.

"You have to be called Brother Feilong. You are the boss of the Knicks. According to your status in the world, you can't call me nonsense!" Chenglong said with a smile.

"Yes, you can do whatever you want." Zhao Dong smiled helplessly.

Now that the return of Hong Kong to Hong Kong is imminent, the habits of the world are still very deep, especially Chenglong's background in martial arts, he is very disciplined.

When he left, he happened to meet several league officials accompanied by owner James Dowland, led by league president David Stern.

"Mr. Stern, hello."

"Feilong, hello."

After the greeting, Stern obviously wanted to chat with Zhao Dong, and the others walked away first.

"Feilong, what do you think of court violence?" Time was short, and Stern got straight to the point.

"Of course, this is not a good thing. I support the league to impose severe punishment on stadium violence." Zhao Dong laughed.

Nodding, Stern was still satisfied with Zhao Dong's attitude. He said with a smile on his face: "I hope you can maintain this good attitude. The league hopes to have a gentleman-like superstar. He can understand humility and tolerance, kindness and kindness." forgive."

"Didn't you ask the old hooligan to become such a person yesterday? I didn't come here to be a saint. I came to conquer this place. My only purpose is to kill all the superstars and take away their brilliance."

After complaining in his heart, Zhao Dong nodded and said: "Yes, sir, this is also my wish. I don't want to become an elbow expert like Karl Malone. If I become a guy like him, please You expel me immediately."

The corners of Stern's eyes twitched, and he nodded, "That's good. I hope you can lead the Knicks to win the third championship and become a respected superstar."

"thank you for your good wishes."

Zhao Dong nodded politely, and then took his leave.

Looking at Zhao Dong's back, Stern shook his head secretly. The first time he came into contact with him, he knew that this Chinese was not a fool, and there would definitely be troubles in the future.

He was a little annoyed, why are talented young people like Qiao Dan and Zhao Dong always so unruly?
