NBA Backer King Chapter 414

   Chapter 414 NCAA Championship

   "Look, Chamberlain had a heart attack."

   "Really? Go and have a look."

  Lao Zhang quickly gathered around a circle of people, and some superstars were alarmed and came to visit one after another.

   "Heart disease?"

   Hearing the situation, Jordan, Pharaoh, Da Meng, and Barkley also came over.

   At this time, Chamberlain had already been placed on the floor, and his mind was a little unconscious.

   "Everyone spread out a little, don't affect the ventilation. Have you arranged a doctor? You have to prepare first aid, golden three minutes, don't delay." Pharaoh reminded.

   He has received first aid training in the community where he lives. The promotion of this kind of first aid is still very extensive in the United States. The more advanced the community is, the better it is. Generally, people who have gone to college will.

  Stern and a group of management also rushed over. He felt a pain in his head, and there were signs of a cerebral infarction. It was obviously a very successful superstar feast, but it was about to kill people, and he was very depressed.

   "Is the emergency doctor here?" As soon as he arrived at the scene, he glanced at Chamberlain, who was already unconscious on the floor, and immediately shouted.

   For such a large-scale event, a doctor must be arranged, and there is more than one, and several ambulances have been contacted.

   "Come here!" Several doctors ran over.

  As soon as the doctor arrived, after a little check, it was confirmed that it was a myocardial infarction, and he could no longer breathe on his own. He quickly checked the airway, and then started first aid.

   "Okay, why did you have a heart attack?" Pharaoh asked.

   "I don't know, I heard that this is his old problem, maybe he was selected for the 50th National Congress, too excited?" Jordan said.

   "It's none of our business anyway," Buckley said.

  Pharaoh and the others nodded quickly, what does this have to do with them?

   In the end, Chamberlain was snatched back, regained a certain ability to breathe on his own, and was sent to the hospital.

This year's All-Star and Top 50 Superstar Awards Ceremony has come to an end. It was very successful. The number of people who watched the All-Star Game in North America exceeded tens of millions. Just the two minutes that lasted to rescue Chamberlain, at least soared. Millions of viewers.

   There was no TV broadcast when Chamberlain played games. It is estimated that he played for 14 years, and the number of people watching him play is not as many as those who watched him rescue him in two minutes.

   The next day, Wang Tiejun and his party returned to Phoenix, and the news of this All-Star event had just begun.

"Zhang 20,000 and the most dominant center in the league, Old K, took it on, and publicly believed that Old K was not worthy of the ninth place in the top 50 superstars. However, his attitude was opposed by the vast majority of active superstars, even Jordan, I don't agree with him either." Phoenix Sports.

"Jordan thinks that Chamberlain is just a regular-season superstar, not a real playoff superstar, let alone a supergiant in the finals. Jordan seems to think that old K is qualified to be the ninth place in the top 50 superstars." New York Times.

   "Dameng publicly mocked Chamberlain for brushing data in the regular season. In the past, the Big Three of Mosaic jointly believed that Chamberlain was not qualified to evaluate Old K." Cleveland Sports Daily.

   "Accused by many of the league's current superstars, Big Dipper Chamberlain suffered a heart attack under stimulation and is still not out of danger." Los Angeles Times.

  The news about Chamberlain, wave after wave, involves many superstars.

   Then this wave of public opinion continued to expand. Many media people and NBA stars joined the discussion, and for the sake of existence, they expressed their opinions on relevant issues.

   In the morning, Larry Bird was interviewed by New York Television.

   "Larry, do you think Chamberlain's illness was because of the stimulation of Old K and Jordan?" the reporter asked.

   "Of course not, Chamberlain's heart attack has long been reported by the media, he just happened to have it at that time, and it has nothing to do with other people." He said.

   "Do you agree with Chamberlain's view? Or do you agree more with what Jordan and old K said?" The reporter asked again.

"Oh, actually, in my opinion, the ninth place in the top 50 superstars of the old K should be well deserved. The finals averaged 50 points per game, which is a shocking statistic, plus Sweeping the last four rounds to win the championship, it was a playoff that was almost impossible to replicate."

Larry Bird said here, and added: "But what Jordan and Big Dream said about Chamberlain's stats, to be honest, haha, well, you'd better go and interview him, maybe interview some people who were watching the game at the time. Fans, yes, I'm talking about that 100-point game, haha..."

   "Do you think Chamberlain is swiping data?" The reporter would not let Larry Bird be vague, and immediately asked.

"Oh, Chamberlain is undoubtedly a great star, no one can deny his talent and strength, yes, but I think he is a little worse than me because I have more championships than him, haha! Okay, this is the interview It's over, do me a favor, I have to catch a flight."

  Larry Bird ended the interview after speaking. If he continued to ask questions, he had to directly admit that he agreed with what Jordan and old K said. Although he thought so, he still had to give some face to an old man like Chamberlain.

  Jabbar was interviewed at the airport in Cleveland.

   "Sky hook, do you think Chamberlain brushed data?"

   "The weather is good today, um, a little rain, although it is a little cold, it looks like it may snow. Well, yes, I hope Wilt can recover as soon as possible, yes, that's it." Jabbar stammered.

   "Tiangou, do you think old K is not worthy of the ninth place in the 50th?" Seeing that Kareem was unwilling to answer this question directly, the reporter immediately changed the question.

   "There is no doubt that he is qualified to enter the top ten. Whether it is old K or Chamberlain, both are great superstars, there is no doubt about that." Abdul-Jabbar replied immediately.

  The media interviewed a large number of stars, most people think that Wang Tiejun is no problem to enter the top ten, but there are a small number of those old antiques of the same era as Chamberlain, those so-called ancient beasts, but they are more supportive of Chamberlain.

   In the afternoon, when Pharaoh returned to Phoenix, the Cleveland Hospital where Chamberlain stayed announced that he was out of danger and had been transferred to the regular ward.

   A Phoenix reporter informed Pharaoh of the news. He was relieved. If Chamberlain hung up, the media would not know what to write.

  Dameng and Jordan and other people who accused Chamberlain at the scene were even more relieved. If Chamberlain could not be rescued this time, then they would definitely be criticized by the media.

  The All-Star Weekend is over, the regular season is back on fire, and with Rasheed Wallace back from injury, the Suns lineup is back in order.

   However, for the playoffs, the coaching staff began to take a large-scale rest, especially the Lightning, which averaged about 25 minutes per game, and the rest of the time was given to Kidd.

   On February 14th, after the All-Star game, Pharaoh completed an achievement, scoring 10,000 points in the regular season of his career, and received a reward of 500 points in the system.

   By the end of February, the Suns had won all of February's games, ranking first in the league with a 52-5 record.

   But the Suns are not alone, because the Bulls are close behind with 51 wins and 6 losses, just one game away.

  Wang Tiejun still ranks first in the MVP ranking, and the data is very dazzling. As long as there is no shady, there is a high possibility of defending this honor.

  The regular season is entering March, and at this time, the interest of American basketball fans has shifted more to NCAA games.

The NCAA division game has come to an end, and it will really enter March Madness from the middle of the year. At that time, the sixty-fourth round, the sweet sixteenth round, and the elite eighth round are the most exciting games, the regular season of the NBA. All make way for it.

  On the evening of the 6th, Pharaoh came back from dinner at the martial arts hall, turned on the computer, and then opened the mailbox. There were some pictures of the construction of the sports center sent by Bai Changsheng.

The underground building of the basketball hall has been built, and there is a two-story underground parking lot. The main construction of the above-ground building has not been completed. It will be completed by the end of the year, and then it will enter the decoration process. From construction to completion, a total of 14 months of construction period. .

The construction of the five-star hotel is several times larger, and it is still in the underground construction stage. According to the regulations, an air-raid shelter needs to be built below, and there are two underground parking lots above. The construction period of one and a half years, and the decoration time of half a year, Eight months longer than a basketball arena.

  In addition to the underground facilities, the construction of other annexes of the K-era Sports Center has not yet started, which will not start until the main buildings such as the basketball hall and the hotel are completed.

After flipping through the pictures, Pharaoh thought of the vacant lot behind South Street, the 40 acres of vacant land next to the open-air basketball court behind Bar Street. Bai Changsheng suggested that he build a few high-rise commercial buildings to match with the sports center. , he has agreed.

However, the investment is huge. The five-star hotel under construction in the sports center has a 30-storey building area of ​​240,000 square meters. The investment including decoration has reached more than 300 million yuan. The investment in commercial buildings is not so much, but the same building, The investment will also exceed 200 million yuan. He has no money now, and he has to accumulate it slowly and build it slowly in the future.

K Wuguan can earn tens of millions a year now, but in addition to taxes, the money he can bring back to China is about 30 million US dollars at most, that is, a 30-story 240,000-square-meter commercial building, about 200 million yuan, so After all, it will take a few years to gather the money to build a few commercial buildings.

Now his idea of ​​investing in Fengshen Street has changed a bit. It is no longer about making money. Now he is really not short of money, but really wants to build that place into a bright business card of the capital. A great sense of achievement.

   After thinking about these things, he looked at the time, it was almost time, he came to the living room, turned on the TV, and prepared to watch a Big East conference game at Georgetown University.

  This game is Georgetown University's home game, against the University of Concord. If it wins, Georgetown University can continue to move forward. If it loses, it will be eliminated.

   Although the strength of Georgetown University has not been very good in recent years, it is an old NCAA famous school after all, and the attention is good.

   At eight o'clock, the game officially started.

   Dayao did not start, and was still on the bench.

  Georgetown was not strong enough. Against the more powerful Concordia, it was always behind. In the 6th minute of the first quarter, Dayao came off the bench.

   "Clap clap clap..."

  Dayao is now a well-known rising star on the Georgetown University men's basketball team. When he came out, the basketball hall was greeted with warm applause.

  As the game progressed, Pharaoh followed the camera to take a look. After Dayao played, many middle-aged and elderly men in the audience opened their notebooks and were recording something. There was no doubt that these people must be scouts.

  Unfortunately, the overall strength of the team was not enough, and the game was still lost. Georgetown University was eliminated and stopped in the semifinals of the Big East.

Dayao played 23 minutes in this game, longer than the main center. He made 6 of 8 shots, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 18 points and 7 rebounds. Pull out and shoot.

  Although he is young and immature, he has begun to show a good shooting touch and agile pace at the basket.

   It's just a matter of age, the weight gain has just started, so the tonnage is very small, and it looks very thin, like a bamboo pole.

Although    was eliminated, the performance of Dayao, who came off the bench, has won praise from many media.

  ABC TV's commentator Elanton said after the game: "Through this season's performance, it is clear that Georgetown University has found another excellent center seedling, and this is a big center with a height of 224 cm.

  Yao has a good shooting touch, and his free throw percentage is higher than many guards. He has a flexible pace at the basket, and his body has good coordination and flexibility. "

   His partner Gomez continued: "Yao is from K's home country, he came from K's basketball youth summer camp in BJ, and K's personal training plan, including strength training, was made for him.

   He came to the United States personally by the old K, and then the old K entrusted Mutombo and Ewing, who jointly recommended them to their parent team Georgetown University.

I would say that the role of the brand is here. If Georgetown University hadn't cultivated such excellent centers as Ewing, Mutombo, and Mourning, Lao K would definitely recommend Yao to the more famous Duke or California. the University. "

Elanton continued: "In just one season, Yao has shown great potential. All NBA teams have established draft files for him. We can see that as long as it is his game, there will be a large number of players from the NBA. scout..."

   When Lao Wang saw this, he turned off the TV and went to rest.

   Dayao's talent is there, and his training is hard. Now he has the best training environment. As long as there are no accidents, his future road is very bright, as long as he follows the steps.

   He plans to end the season this time. After returning to China, he will select a few people from the summer camp and find a way to send them to play in the United States.

  The inside line is already there, and he plans to develop a few outside lines, especially guards.

  Although the national team has Hu Weidong and Sun Jun, a group of good outsiders, but it is not enough to really go further in the Olympics.

   And this group of people will also be old. After a few years of playing, the peak period will be passed. He has to prepare for the future. The current group of excellent defenders does not match his age.

   Especially the point guard is very critical. Without a first-class point guard, no matter how strong the inside line is, it will be useless. It may be difficult to run into the dream team after halftime.

   In this Olympics, if there is a lightning strike in the men's basketball team, he thinks it is possible to go one step further, and defeating Yugoslavia is not an impossible thing.

   In addition, Dazhi has already obtained the approval of the 81 team, he can participate in this year's draft, this matter has been settled satisfactorily, he has to deal with it, first find a good agent.

  David Frank is of course the first choice. This guy's service attitude is still good, and his ability and contacts are top-notch.

He is only worried about one thing, there are too many big names under David Frank, Jordan, Ewing, Mourning, Mutombo, Iverson, John Stockton, etc., such as Hu Weidong and Dazhi placed in his How many resources can you get?

   He thought about it, Zhang Lili has been very familiar with the NBA in the past few years, and he has the ability, whether to let him get an agent license, but in the end he gave up the idea.

   After entering March, the NBA regular season continues, but the heat was obviously sucked away by the NCAA's crazy March. After entering the crazy top 64, the NCAA's attention was very high, and the NBA's ratings dropped significantly.

   Even the Suns, who had a hot record this season, were affected a bit, because Arizona University was very strong, and it actually made it to the top 64 and entered the sweet top 16.

   Fortunately, the Suns are indeed very popular in Arizona, and they have the hope of hitting the championship this season. The impact is not that big.

   Two days at the end of the month, the sweet sixteen of the NCAA is about to start.

  25th, in the 69th regular season, Pharaoh completed another achievement task, the total number of career rebounds reached 5,000, and he was rewarded with 300 points.

  On the 26th, when it was the turn of the University of Arizona, Wang Tiejun and a group of teammates went to Tucson to help.

   Zhang Lili's former sister-in-law studied in this university and stayed in the city after graduation. This time, he also went to Tucson to visit his former sister-in-law and watch the game.

   As the most popular superstar in the state, the appearance of Pharaoh certainly attracted enough attention. As soon as he entered the field, he immediately became the center of attention.

   "Old K, what do you think of Mike Bibby's draft prospects?" A reporter came up and asked.

   "Yes, he will be an excellent point guard. But I don't know which year he will choose to enter the draft, do you know?" Pharaoh said with a smile.

   "I heard that I won't participate in the draft this year. This year is only a freshman year. He is only 19 years old." A reporter said.

  Pharaoh looked at the auditorium. There seemed to be a lot of scouts. At least he saw a scout from the Suns.

  In the end, the University of Arizona defeated its opponents and entered the NCAA's hottest Elite Eight.

   And its footsteps have not stopped, No. 28, defeated the opponent again, and advanced to the semi-finals.

  The time has entered April, the NBA regular season has entered the last month, and the NCAA has also entered the craziest finishing stage.

   On March 30th, the semi-finals started.

   This year's NCAA semifinals were held in Los Angeles, with two semifinals on the 30th, and the champion on the 1st.

  After playing at home on the 29th, there were exactly three days without a game. The schedule was coordinated. At noon on the 30th, Pharaoh, Lightning, Kobe and others went to Los Angeles to watch the semi-finals.

   Their tickets were taken from Big Dream. The Final Four was held at the Great Western Forum Arena. The Lakers game made way for the Final Four, and the schedule was designed before the season started.

   A group of people came to the Great Western Forum Arena, and before entering, they met Jordan.

   is not surprising, because tonight's opponent in the Final Four of the University of Arizona is North Carolina, Jordan's alma mater.

   After several people entered the venue, they had no chance to take a seat, so they stood on the sidelines to deal with reporters, while taking time to argue about which of the two universities had a better chance of reaching the finals.

   In terms of confidence, of course, North Carolina is more powerful. Jordan proudly wants to bet against Pharaoh. The bet is that the medicated bath and medicated oil will be free for one year. If North Carolina loses, he will give Pharaoh a Ferrari custom sports car.

  Pharaoh's bet is quite large. If you use it every day, it will add up to at least three thousand dollars a day, and it will be about one million dollars a year.

  Jordan's bet is not small. That sports car is also worth millions of dollars. Although it is a used car that Jordan has driven, it has only run two or three thousand kilometers and has not driven much.

   "Betting."

   Lao Wang did not hesitate, his bet cost is low, no bet is not worth betting.

   "Things that don't live up to their expectations can't even beat the University of Arizona..."

   As a result, at the end of the game, Jordan scolded and walked away without saying hello to a group of apprentices. Before leaving, he left a sentence: "Go to Chicago to get the car yourself."

   "This bastard, there is no door-to-door service." Old Wang complained with a smile.

   "Old K, lend me the car to drive." Lightning laughed.

   "Whatever, I can't drive anyway." Old Wang nodded.

   "Old K, lend me a drive too?" Kobe laughed.

   "It's enough for a child to drive a pickup." Pharaoh immediately shook his head.

   "Stingy! After the playoffs, I will also buy a Ferrari sports car." Kobe sighed.

   Old Wang glanced at Kobe and said, "Jordan's Ferrari was given by the manufacturer, and mine was given by him. Do you want to buy it yourself?"

   "Haha..." Lightning and others laughed.

  The curly hair on Kobe's head almost stood up, and he said unconvincingly: "Sooner or later I will ask Ferrari to send me a sports car."

   Played in Los Angeles for a day, on the 1st day, the NCAA finals started.

  In the end, the University of Arizona actually defeated the University of Kentucky, a famous NCAA school, and won the school's first NCAA championship, which is also the school's first NCAA championship since its establishment 100 years ago.

   But the team's best performance in this final was not the rising star Mike Bibby, but the main player, Miles Simon, who had average potential, scored 30 points and led the team to win the championship.

  Mike Bibby scored 19 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals, and his performance was also extraordinary.

  Pharaoh and others came forward to congratulate them, chatted with several main players, and then left the arena.

   At noon on the 2nd, the group returned to Phoenix and defeated the visiting Mosaic team in the evening, winning the 66th regular season victory.

   66 wins and 7 losses, the Suns are still the first in the league.

  The Bulls are 65-8, second in the league and first in the East.

   The two teams are still only one game apart, and the chase is quite tight.

   The Suns have 9 regular-season games left, and are very hopeful to break the Bulls' 72-win record set in the 1993/94 season.
