Super Lord of the Rings

Chapter 172 [The Melancholy Emperor]

The Nets next opponent is the Cavaliers. So far, the Cavaliers have only 4 wins and 13 losses.

LeBron James arrived in New York on the evening of the 3rd and asked Wang Jun for lunch the next day.

James was obviously in a low mood, and his large body swayed over. Wang Jun wanted to ask, "What's wrong, buddy, someone cooked it?" Then James replied: "Hey, I have a cold and a fever." (You two The crab step is not practiced in vain!)

Of course, Wang Jun knew that James would not be able to understand such a question, so he greeted him very plainly. "Hey LeBron, what's up with your face just back from Eagle County court?"

"If a reporter hears it, it will definitely be on the news." Wang Jun amused James with a word.

The two shook hands and sat down facing each other.

After ordering western food, Wang Jun asked, "You don't seem to be in a good mood, what happened?"

"I played two games with the Nuggets, and the Cavaliers lost. Carmelo Anthony is my number one competitor for the best rookie this season. Can I be happy?" James sighed. His statistics in these two games are not as good as Anthony's, and his evaluation has been lowered.

Wang Jun also ranked fourth on the rookie list, but he didn't take this honor seriously. "Is Rookie of the Year that important?"

"Of course you can calm down if you are low in the draft. If I can't get this award in the end, it will be a failure." James shook his head.

Wang Jun smiled and said: "Then compete for the best rookie, your statistics are not bad, what are you afraid of?"

James was silent for a moment, then whispered: "The biggest headache for me now is that someone in the team is fighting for the ball with me, and they always show me face, I don't know what to do."

"Who is so bold?"

"Ricky Davis."

The Cavaliers have good inside strength. Ilgauskas can make a stable mid-range shot after a high pick-and-roll, and Boozer can also open up space for mid-range shots. The low-post skills are great, and he hit a double-double in his second season.

The outside line is supposed to work, but the bad thing is Davis. This guy regards grabbing the ball with James and fighting for the boss as his first task. Don't care about losing at all.

Davis believes that he is the core of the Cavaliers. Before James arrived, he averaged 20.6 points, 4.9 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game.

Looks like star data,

In fact, the Cavaliers lost 65 regular-season games last season, otherwise James would not be able to come. Davis is a typical cancer of brushing data and disregarding the team.

James proved his super strength as early as in high school. Before entering the league, he signed a huge contract with Nike for 7 years and 93 million, while Kobe, who had three championship rings in the summer, signed with Nike for 5 years and 45 million.

Many people think that James is the heir of "Joe's Gang Leader", just because of this. It is impossible for the Cavaliers to let him be the second master. Unless the management and coaching staff are blind.

However, Ricky Davis believes that James is here to be his younger brother.

After the game, he would say to James unceremoniously: "Hey, boy, these are my shoes, uncle, carry them well!"

After hearing what James said, Wang Jun was happy. "He really asked you to carry his shoes? Did you do so?"

"Yes. Otherwise, what should we do? He was the core of the team last year." James showed a constipated expression: "Why don't you do the same?"

"I'm probably going to pretend I didn't hear, nobody on the Nets let me carry the bag."

"If you carry bags for Kidd. Easier to get on with the veterans, right?"

"Do you think Kidd's bag is so easy to carry? There is a man named Korver in our team. He is very flexible after he is off the court. No one can prevent him from carrying the bag."

"..."

"Just kidding." Wang Jun said with a smile: "Brother, you are the number one pick. If I were the number one pick, I would have my agent go to the team manager and owner to file a complaint and tell Davis to leave, otherwise I will ask for a transfer. I won't stay here anymore. Your nickname is the emperor, what is his nickname?"

Because of the triple-double incident last season, Davis was punished internally by the team. He also got the nickname "Ricky who made the wrong shot" in Cleveland, which sounds very mentally handicapped.

James hesitated a little. "Is that okay? They're going to say I got rid of the old boss as soon as I got into the league."

"On! As soon as I entered the league, the head coach was kicked out. Many people said that I was the fuse. Let them say it. You are not happy now. What do you want to do in the future?" Wang Jun has always said There is a disease that will die if you are unhappy.

"Okay, I'll say it now." James immediately called his agent Aaron Goodwin and talked about his situation in an excited tone.

Goodwin called the Cavaliers management again, drawing the wrath of owner Daniel Gilbert.

What is Davis? Actually let their future team building core carry shoes?

If James is unhappy because of this and doesn't want to renew his rookie contract, even if he stays forcibly, there will be a gap between the two parties.

After receiving the instructions, the Cavaliers manager immediately "put Davis on the shelf", not asking for any strongman in exchange, only asking James to be happy.

Before James and Wang Jun finished their meal, the agent reported the good news, and the owner of the Cavaliers also called James himself to calm his emotions like a kind elder.

"LeBron, if there is such a thing in the future, call me directly. You are the leader of the team, there is no doubt about it."

James made the phone call. It felt like a dream. The problem that had troubled him for a month was actually solved with just one phone call.

After hanging up the phone, James said excitedly, "Brother, the team is willing to send Davis away. Do you want me to make another call and propose to change you to the Cavaliers?"

"Yes, but the Nets will definitely not change." Wang Jun smiled.

This is just a joke. The salary must be equal in the transaction. The Cavaliers and Wang Jun's salary is equal to Kapono. How could the Nets change?

James is in a good mood. "Although this is your home stadium, I have to treat you today, so don't worry about it."

"Okay, I'm not being polite to you. Your annual salary plus advertising fee earns dozens of times more than mine. When you go to Cleveland for an away game, continue to treat me to a big meal."

"No problem, it's settled." James stretched out his big hand and patted Wang Jun. "If you guard me at night, I will not show mercy."

Wang Jun laughed: "Have you carried yourself away? You should ask my subordinates to be merciful. The Cavaliers are still a bad team."

"It won't last forever." James was confident.

As a result, the game proved that the Cavaliers still suck.

"Big Z" has a height advantage and can shoot, but he is poor at defending against pick-and-rolls. He must be paired with a 4th partner who is good at defending against pick-and-rolls. Boozer is obviously not that kind of person.

In the first quarter, the Nets led 38 to 20 by relying on a side off-ball screen. Wang Jun scored three three-pointers and one two-pointer, scoring 11 points.

James also performed well, but he was not consistent. Once Davis was scrambling for the ball on the outside to play singles, his teammates could watch.

The Cavaliers have no substitutes who are good at scoring. Kittles recovered and led the team to a wave of 11 to 2, and the point difference continued to widen.

In the second half, the Cavaliers' offense did not improve, trailing at most by 38 points. After three quarters, the two sides replaced the main players early, and the game entered garbage time.

Wang Jun scored 21 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists. James had 17 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals. Both sat on the bench.

The team suffered a disastrous defeat, and James was depressed again. (to be continued ~^~)
