Chapter 50 Dayao
Zheng Ke was injured!This news was spread on major Chinese websites in the first time. Zheng Ke's every move from an unknown player to now has become news in the eyes of the media. It only took him more than 3 months!

Life is like this, maybe one moment you have nothing, maybe the next moment you are rich
After the Timberwolves lost Zheng Ke, the perimeter defense dropped to a level in an instant, although the Timberwolves made a few small deals after that, such as sending Mike James and Justin Reed to the Rockets in exchange for veteran Juwan Howard Wait, but it didn't help. After the Timberwolves lost to the Nuggets by a huge score of 20 points, they had a magnificent 7-1 win. The victory was the Heat, whose main force was almost all injured.
After the game ended, there was news from the Heat that the Heat intend to trade the hero who won the 06 championship and the most dominant center in history-"Shark" O'Neal.

After this news came out, all powers in the nba were moved by the news. Although his performance this season was not good, the 35-year-old O'Neal still has a large market and strong strength.Among them, the Suns in the West have the most violent and sincere pursuit of O'Neal!
In addition to this news, Paul Gasol, the head of the Grizzlies, has also had enough of losing in the Grizzlies. He has completely fallen out with the management. It is only a matter of time before he leaves the Grizzlies. Know who is Pau Gasol's next team
The triple-double king "Kidd" also seems to be tired of his days in the Nets. He has entered the end of his career but still has not won even a championship ring. Now he desperately hopes that he can join a team with the strength to compete for the championship. team
It was late January when Zheng Ke returned to the team. The time for his comeback has not yet been determined, but he is already undergoing recovery training and team training. Zheng Ke seriously participates in training every day and adds all the GS points he earned to the team. on the endurance property.

Every day, a large number of Chinese media asked Timberwolves staff Zheng Ke's comeback time. At first, they didn't tell them because they really didn't know. I gave the media an exact number and will come back next Monday!

Next Mon?The reporters looked at the Timberwolves' schedule and suddenly found that the Timberwolves were going to challenge the Rockets away next Tuesday, then challenge the Celtics at home next Thursday and the Warriors on Saturday!There are two major events in this, the Chinese Derby, and the wolf king returns home!Now the reporters are not calm anymore, they immediately target the central training hall at flying speed, while racking their brains to think of various languages, so as to send the news to the headquarters
So when Zheng Ke returned home, he found that the news headlines on the website were all kinds of "revealed!"
#################################################
This is the first time for Zheng Ke to come to Houston. Houston is the fourth largest city in the United States. It is known as the "space city" for its energy and aviation industry.

After getting off the plane, Zheng Ke sat on the bus and browsed the big city. Zheng Ke was deeply impressed by the clean streets and rows of neat high-rise buildings.

The Houston Rockets once won the NBA championship twice in 94 and 95, but after that, the situation went from bad to worse, and the record was not as good as the previous year. It was not until Yao Ming, the "Little Giant of the East" was selected in 2002, that Houston gradually returned to the status of a strong team. ranks.

The Rockets' current record is fourth in the West, while the Timberwolves are only No.14 in the West. The gap between the two is very obvious
After staying in the hotel, Zheng Ke received a call from Yao Ming, knowing that Yao Ming had come to the hotel, so he took advantage of the gathering of fellow villagers, told Whitman for a vacation, and ostentatiously left the hotel with his "enemy" tomorrow night.
This is Zheng Ke's second meeting with Yao Ming. During the draft last year, he met Yao Ming once, but there was no in-depth communication at that time. It can be regarded as an accidental acquaintance.At that time, Yao Ming’s first impression of Zheng Ke was that he was tall, and his second impression was that he was kind. Yao Ming was surprised when he knew that Zheng Ke was here to participate in the draft, but his good quality still prevented him from questioning Zheng Ke. Comforting Zheng Ke, and suggested that Zheng Ke can actually continue his studies in university
Yao Ming's modest attitude and the questioning eyes of the surroundings became a strong contrast. This kind of personality charm moved the fledgling Zheng Ke very much. He wished he could chop a yellow chicken, burn baijiu and become brothers with Dayao.
In fact, Yao Ming is also quite depressed. He is an old man who has been playing in the NBA for several years. He knows that most teams will not choose an unknown player. When he saw Zheng Ke, he felt the same as everyone else. I think Zheng Ke will definitely lose the election,

But something happened that blinded his dog's eyes, almost beyond the expectations of people all over the world, the unknown Zheng Ke was actually picked by the Minnesota Timberwolves!Moreover, he was only one pick lower than Sun Yue, who was much more famous than him!
Well, after uncovering this incident, Zheng Ke did not participate in the team's summer league. Now Yao Ming thought that Zheng Ke would be given up by the forest, but things were beyond his expectation again. Played in the pre-season, and there is a stable time in each pre-season game. Although the data is a mess, it seems to be quite favored by the Timberwolves.

Then came the regular season. At that time, there was a big bet in Las Vegas, betting on Zheng Ke's second-round picks who would be the starters, who would be the substitutes, and who would be the fringes after two months of the regular season. People, who will be kicked out by the NBA.Although Yao Ming didn't take part in the gambling, his teammates all took part in this rather interesting game. The teammates still gave Big Brother face. Zheng Ke, who is also Chinese, has become a starter or a substitute in their hands. All-stars, it is estimated that they will vote for all-stars.

But Yao Ming felt that the probability of Zheng Ke starting in the middle of the season was too small, even like the odds in this bet!However, a miracle happened again. Zheng Ke continued to improve, from a marginal player to a substitute, from a substitute to a role player, from a role player to a sixth man, and finally to the starter, he managed it in two months!

Yao Ming's teammates on the Rockets made a small fortune, and all of them laughed from ear to ear, and kept boasting to Yao Ming, "The Chinese are amazing!" Yao Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly.

It can be said that Zheng Ke is shocking Yao Ming time and time again, and at the same time shocking the world time and time again!

This time Yao Ming specially invited Zheng Ke to drink tea. On the one hand, we can communicate with each other. After all, we are all Chinese and work in the same league. On the other hand, he wants to persuade Zheng Ke to join the Chinese national team.
The two came to a local teahouse in Houston, which seemed to be a relatively high-end place, anyway, Zheng Ke had never been there before.

After the two were shabby for a while, Yao Ming finally brought up his topic: "Ake, do you have any ideas about joining the Chinese national team?"

Zheng Ke smiled and said: "Of course, after all, this year is the Olympic Games held in front of our own home. All the athletes in our country are gearing up to show their skills in front of the folks. I am no exception."

"Haha" "Everything you said is wrong, this year can be said to be the strongest in our national men's basketball team!" Yao Ming said: "I, Ah Lian, are generally NBA-level players, but we are all insiders. "

Yao Ming's eyes were burning, and he said to Zheng Ke: "Now there is a lack of an NBA-level outside line. Ake, you know, if we only have inside lines, we will still be eight thousand years old, even if it is the Olympic Games hosted by our own home."

Zheng Ke laughed dryly, touched his nose and said, "Sun Yue is also at the NBA level, and Zhu Fangyu and the others are all fine."

Yao Ming was a little angry, and he said: "You are not a layman, they are all very good outsiders, it is really good, but with your current strength, you are definitely higher than them. With you, the Chinese team will never again Will be worried about the full-court press, come on, let's play the Olympics together!"

Zheng Ke's expression became serious, and he said seriously: "Brother Yao, I know what you said, I also want to participate in the Olympics, but the initiative is not with me, but with the Basketball Association. All I can do now is to play Well every game, you know."

"It doesn't matter, as long as you have the heart, I will work hard at the Basketball Association!" Yao Ming said proudly.

"Brother Yao, you~~"

"After taking so much money from me, why do I still have some status, don't I?" Yao Ming said with a laugh.
