The entire United States, and even the entire world, are looking forward to Jordan's comeback.
Magic Johnson even posted a video begging Jordan to come back.
And once Jordan came back, the entire NBA suddenly seemed like a land after a long drought, and it was thriving.
The following year, the Bulls even offered Jordan an annual salary of 3000 million.
You know, in that year, the team's salary cap was only more than 2400 million.
And Jordan's annual salary alone is more than all the players on other teams combined.
This is the influence after reaching Jordan's level.
If it was Jordan stomping his feet, the league would tremble three times.
(Here to refute the rumors. There are many rumors that Jordan’s influence is too great, and he brings hundreds of millions of dollars to the league every year. Therefore, all the bosses of the league agreed that Jordan’s salary should not be included in the team’s salary for the benefit of the team, so Never mind the salary cap.
In fact, it was because Jordan had played for the Bulls for three years, triggering the Bird clause and possessing the so-called bird rights.His salary does not need to be included in the team's total salary.In those two years, not only Jordan's salary was not included in the team's total salary, but also many players such as Knicks Ewing, Rockets Dream, and Spurs Robinson.
There was no luxury tax in that era, so if the team owner is able and willing, it is fine to pay 1 million to these players with bird rights. )
After this game, Wang Yi's goal has changed slightly.
It's not just about conquering the NBA anymore.
But to have Jordan-like influence.
When the time comes, let's see who dares to blow the whistle.
When the daily training was done, Nicole had delivered breakfast.
She carefully watched Wang Yi eat breakfast bite by bite, and carefully observed Wang Yi's expression.
She was a little relieved when she found that Wang Yi didn't seem to be affected by the fine and suspension from the league.
"Wang, you have been suspended. Tomorrow night's game may not be easy for the Lakers."
Wang Yi shook his head and said vaguely:
"Even if we lose tomorrow night, it's only 2-3. In the next game, I will make the Clippers die ugly!"
Nicole didn't speak.
She just rested her chin on her hands, silently looking at the confident man in front of her.
He's such a fascinating guy.
After a while, seeing Wang Yi eat up all the food, Nicole's charming smile appeared again.
"Wang, then I won't bother you. I have other things to do today. Bye."
After finishing speaking, he picked up the lunch box, bounced away like a happy bird.
Wang Yi watched her back leave, and after a while, he looked away.
The task given by the system today is to complete 200 one-on-one steal training, plus 200 running steal training.
After completion, the success rate of steals can reach 20%.
You know, that's an exaggerated success rate.
On average, that is, five defenses against the opponent can be interrupted once.
Stealing training is actually training in various aspects such as reaction speed, speed, anticipation, and field vision.
He let his personal trainer dribble past him before the rest of his teammates arrived, and he looked for opportunities to steal.
A steal is not like a shot.
The basket is dead, but the man is alive.
You want to tackle a defensive player, it's very difficult.
Even though Wang Yi has long arms and big hands, he tried more than ten times before he was interrupted by the trainer once.
When they practiced until ten o'clock in the morning, other players of the team arrived.
At this time, Wang Yi made more than 30 one-on-one steals.
At the end of this day, I am afraid that at most, there will only be around 100 steals.
Fortunately, the time limit given by the system this time is not short.
There are 5 full days.
should be enough.
The next day, the team has a game.
Wang Yi was suspended, so naturally he does not have to participate.
He continued to train.
At 12 o'clock that night, 200 one-on-one steal training was completed.
The personal trainer sits on the floor of the gym, panting constantly.
"Wang, your training...is crazy...I've never seen anyone work so hard."
In the past two days, he kept dribbling and breaking through Wang Yi.
If you have played one-on-one bullfighting, you know how tiring one-on-one is.
Wang Yi also gasped for breath: "That's because you didn't touch me."
Not long after they finished training, the results of the G5 game between the Lakers and the Clippers came out.
The Lakers defeated the Clippers 33-89 with a key three-pointer in the last 86 seconds of James.
Another ultra-low score meat grinding battle.
In the end, the Lakers eliminated the Clippers with a big score of 4 to 1 and advanced to the second round.
In the postgame press conference, reporters asked the Clippers' Beverley:
"Many fans think that Wang Yi of the Lakers is very strong, but Wang was suspended in this game, and you still lost. Do you think Wang's role in the Lakers is not as great as they say?"
This is still provocative.
