After winning three consecutive games, the Wizards are full of momentum. Even if they face the Bulls in the next game, they are absolutely confident that they can crush them.
Friday is another family day for the Wizards.
As soon as Lin Yu arrived at the training ground, he saw old Irving leading three children, two older girls and a four or five-year-old boy.
"Drey, where is your wife? Isn't she here?"
Lin Yu stepped forward to say hello with a smile, keeping his eyes on the four or five-year-old boy. If nothing else happened, this should be the tough-minded Ou Shenxian in the future.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yu's question made Old Irving look sad and sighed: "Coach, my wife passed away two months ago."
Lin Yu's heart skipped a beat. When he saw the sad expressions of Old Irving's three children, he wanted to slap both of them. He really deserved to die.
He knew that Owen's mother passed away when he was four years old. When he saw Owen when he was four or five years old, he felt that he should remember this instead of asking random questions like an idiot.
"Man, do you like basketball?" Lin Yu squatted down with a guilty look on his face and picked up little Owen.
Little Owen was a little shy and looked at his father in panic.
"Don't be afraid of me, man. If you like basketball, how about I be your coach in the future?"
"I will train you to be the best and toughest point guard in NBA history. Your achievements will be much higher than your godfather."
Little Owen didn't quite understand what Lin Yu meant, but he still opened his hands towards old Owen, wanting to return to his father's arms.
"Dre, this kid is amazing. We will bring him over during our team training in the future."
"It will definitely be good for his future to hit him."
Lin Yu patted Old Owen on the shoulder and smiled.
"Ah? Won't that affect our normal training?"
"No, I'm happy to have such a cute little guy on the court anyway."
"Don't worry about your contract. Even if Rod leaves, you are still a member of our Wizards. After this year's contract ends, I will renew your contract for a few more years. This time, I will try to make the contract larger so that you can support your family. "
The more Lin Yu looked at little Owen, the cuter he became, thinking in his mind that he never knew when he would become a father in his life.
Old Irving was so moved that his eyes were red. He had been trembling with fear during this period, because in his opinion, he joined the team because of his relationship with Speedy. Now that Speedy has left, he will have to leave after completing this year's guaranteed contract. Washington.
As a result, Lin Yu actually wanted to renew his contract. Not only did he have to renew the contract, he could also sign for a few more years and the contract amount would be larger according to Lin Yu's wishes.
His current salary of 150,000 yuan a year is less than 90,000 yuan after tax. It is quite difficult to raise three children. If it were not for the help from the flying car from time to time, his life would be even more difficult.
"Ding, the favorability of Dredrick Irving has increased. The current favorability is 100 points."
"The host successfully defeated a player and was rewarded with 1 charm point. The current charm value is 21 points."
What Lin Yu said to Old Irving just now was purely out of guilt and wanted to make up for these poor children. Unexpectedly, he easily brushed Old Irving's favorability level to full, and he easily gained some charm points.
For a fringe player like Irving, it is quite easy to gain favorability, and there is no favorability. As long as he truly appreciates you, he will gain charm points immediately.
However, the team cannot always use fringe players to play, so even if Lin Yu knew that fringe players were easy to improve, he did not deliberately sign fringe players.
Lin Yu carefully calculated the progress of the current favorability of Wizards players.
Big Ben, Webb, Jamie King, Ray Jackson, Rose, and Irving Sr., the favorability of these six people has reached the full value, and there is no way to gain any more charm points.
There is also a Campbell among the six new players in the team. Among the seven, McGrady and Nash have already triggered their favorability tasks, and the remaining five have to continue to work hard.
At the Family Day, Xia Yunshi also came. Lin Yu stood with her. She looked like a talented man and a beautiful woman, which made all the prodigies scream. Kalma also came today and saw Lin Yu and Xia Yunshi. Tired of being together, she left soon after.
…
Saturday night, the Wizards' fourth game of the season is still at home, against the Boston Celtics.
Last season, in order to compete for Duncan, the Celtics struggled wildly throughout the season, but in the end they failed to win the No. 1 pick, giving the Spurs a big advantage.
This season Green Kai has not performed badly again. As a veteran and wealthy team, they should always be responsible to the fans. Fans spend money to watch the game, not because they want to see the home team lose.
Before the game started, Lin Yu, as the host, took the initiative to shake hands with the new Green Kai coach Rick Pitino and say hello.
The surname Pitino sounds like he is of Italian descent. Moreover, he is a New Yorker and is more or less closely related to the Mafia.
Although this is his first season coaching in the NBA, Pitino is also extremely senior. He is a ceiling-level head coach in the NCAA.
Lin Yu's impression of Pitino is mixed. He is a successful head coach. Even if he can be said to have accomplished nothing in the NBA, in the NCAA, his achievements are quite high and he is a serious Hall of Fame-level coach.
However, despite his strong abilities, his off-court life was extremely chaotic. He had been involved in various scandals, bribed freshmen, and even had affairs with his colleagues' wives in the restaurant...
"Mr. Pitino, welcome to Washington." Lin Yu greeted with a smile.
Pitino waved his hand, "Just call me Rick. When it comes to NBA qualifications, I entered the NBA half a year later than you. You should be considered my senior."
The two laughed, and Unseld sat not far away and nodded repeatedly.
He has been "teaching" Lin Yu how to develop his own network in the NBA during this period. He feels that he is already old and Lin Yu cannot live under his protection forever.
Therefore, Unseld thinks it is very necessary to develop contacts and accumulate some friends in the circle.
Of course, Lin Yu also knew that Unseld was right. Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. As long as there are rivers and lakes, there will be intrigues. Having multiple friends and multiple paths is definitely not a bad thing.
In addition, Lin Yu can't always let Unseld come forward in various daily transactions. Sooner or later, he will take the position of general manager of the team, and may even become the owner of a certain team. With more contacts, he will You can go out and negotiate the deal yourself.
After chatting with Pitino for a few words, the game on the court officially began.
Kobe is still starting at No. 1 tonight, and he is facing off against Billups, the flounder.
After playing for a few minutes, Lin Yu had a strange expression and another one-sided defeat on the court.
Billups was called a parallel import in the early stages of his career. That is not nonsense. He is really a bit of a loser.
Under Kobe's defense, the offense couldn't be played, and the defense couldn't guard Kobe. What's worse, he couldn't pass the ball.
It's normal if you think about it carefully. Billups was traded away by Greencaps nominally because of the QJ scandal. In fact, if he was extremely strong and had the performance of Iverson, let alone QJ, he would just kill someone. Green Kai must also find ways to protect him instead of selling him.
Ron Moser, the No. 6 pick taken by Greencaps this year, was exactly one pick higher than Tracy McGrady. Moser was like a chicken when he came on the court, catching Tracy McGrady to death.
In the first three games, McGrady scored 60 points, 37 points, and 36 points respectively. This performance must have attracted the attention of all the media. They called McGrady a rare super genius in ten years.
And Moser, who is in the same position as McGrady and has a similar draft, will definitely be compared. Compared with McGrady's dazzlingness, Moser is too mediocre and has been demoted to nothing.
In this case, Moser finally found a chance to face McGrady. How could he not play chicken blood and eagerly want to prove that he is no worse than McGrady.
He even imagined that he could beat Tracy McGrady tonight, make the headlines tomorrow, and become famous in one battle.
It's a pity that he still thinks too much. If it were a normal rookie McGrady, with his strength, his fantasy would have a chance to come true. But now this is McGrady at his peak, how can a rookie Moser defeat him.
Listening to Moser's trash talk, and seeing Moser sticking to him like a dog-skin plaster, McGrady also got angry.
The originally lazy and dazzled eyes also shined with light at this moment.
After the opening, McGrady reached out for the ball many times to beat Moser. With his current fighting ability, one can imagine how miserable Moser's end will be.
Not only did the Gemini backcourt have a huge advantage, but the Wizards' other three positions also showed their advantages.
Since the arrival of Tracy McGrady and Kobe Bryant, Jaylen Rose has become a bit inconspicuous, and he also wants to seize any opportunity to prove himself.
Weber still played steadily and had a very high success rate in singles against Walter McCarty.
The main opponent was white insider De Klerk, who had already recorded 13 rebounds in the first half, including 7 offensive rebounds.
Not long after the fourth quarter started, Green Kai surrendered and put on a pure substitute lineup.
Lin Yu sighed helplessly. Damn it. How strong is the Wizards now? How come I feel much stronger than I expected.
In four consecutive games, they all defeated their opponents. Even if three of the teams were weak, this was terrifying enough. Even the top Bulls might not be able to do it.
At the end of the game, McGrady scored 41 points, while his opponent Moser only scored 9 points. This is the gap between top players and rookies.
And Kobe scored 17 points, 5 rebounds, 13 assists and 5 steals tonight. Those five steals made Billups want to call the police. He was robbed five times!
Daben scored 6 points, 22 rebounds and 4 blocks, while Webb had 23 points and 11 rebounds.
Even Wu Sheng, who came on as a substitute, faced off against Green Kai's fringe players in the final quarter and scored 13 points.
At 110:86, the Wizards won another 24-point victory at home, recording an impressive record of four consecutive victories.
"Lin Yu!"
"Lin Yu!"
Wizards fans cheered wildly. With the Wizards' current momentum and the leadership of Lin Yu, they really believe they can win the championship.
…
After four home games, the Wizards will start an away trip.
The next opponent is the Charlotte Hornets, which is Lin Yu's soft persimmon for Nash.
The Hornets' main point guard this year is Bugs Boggs. His defense actually poses no threat to Nash, and Nash doesn't break through. As long as his teammates help him block a little bit, Bugs has nothing to do with Nash.
On Sunday morning, Lin Yu led the team to Charlotte. After arriving at the hotel in the evening, his halo was refreshed.
"We are randomly drawing halos every week, please wait for thirty seconds!"
"Passive Halo: "Blank Halo", the host can choose any halo that has appeared before and use it instead."
Lin Yu was stunned. After looking forward to it for so long, he finally got a blank halo randomly.
However, after randomly selecting a blank halo, only one halo appeared.
Lin Yu didn't care whether it was one or three. As long as he could use "Steal" again, it would definitely be a gain.
Lin Yu used "Steal" once last season, which brought him endless benefits. More than two million US dollars is secondary. The real high value is the charm value, player attributes and special props.
In the week that just ended, Lin Yu made more than 8 million US dollars relying on "Treasure Hunter", and currently has less than 10 million in hand.
By the end of the next week, Lin Yu's cash is estimated to be 12 million, and he has decided to go to Lao Paulin to acquire 5% of the equity.
