Two Hundred and Thirty One: Hill Is a Warm Man

before boarding the plane.

Fan Xi and Delphine met, and Delphine said to Fan Xi: I smell three completely different perfumes on you. The first is refreshing, the second is blazing, and the third is like a flower blooming in the dark.

Fan Xi smiled awkwardly.

Delfina joked that you were almost as good as my father. My father once came back from a business trip and smelled of eight kinds of perfume on his body.

Fan Xi shrugged. I muttered in my heart, your father is really a European red rabbit.

At the same time, she also has a better understanding of Delfina. She is worthy of being the successor of the luxury group, and she is too sensitive to perfume.

Fanhee does have three fragrances.

He met Jennifer, Kate, and Cindy in these three days.

Only visible for three days.

These are three different flavors, and even three different lifestyles.

Just as Delphine described it, fresh, hot, and secretly in full bloom.

Fanhee seems to complete a trilogy of movies.

Cindy Crawford is the big boss of the last level, and she even made Fan Xie a little overwhelmed. But it has to be said that those life experiences circulated in the Knicks locker room are correct.

Both Vanhey and Cindy Crawford are extremely happy with each other.

Fan Xi is following the internal energy flow of Huashan Qizong, the epee has no front, and the skill does not work!

Cindy is the skill school of Huashan Sword Sect. Her use and development of the body has reached the limit that Fan Xi knows...Fan Xi always feels fresh and exciting.

But what surprised Fan Xi a little was that Cindy Crawford did not bring an off-court adventure.

From this point of view, the 'otaku developer' still has a bottom line. He is not a pure quantity lover. Perhaps, in his mind, two is already the limit.

Fan Xi stepped onto the special plane and sighed.

"Where is my limit?"

…

This flight is direct to Tokyo.

Vanhee and Delphine met Grant Hill and his management team, as well as Fila executives, in first class.

When Grant Hill saw Fan Xi, he immediately had a warm conversation with Fan Xi.

This is a personable and well-cultivated player. He is being fully cultivated by the league. David Stern hopes that players like Grant Hill will shoulder the important task of changing the NBA's media image. He does not want everyone to think that the NBA is Dennis Rhodes Man, Charles Oakley and others.

Hill warmly congratulated Fanhee on winning the MVP of the finals. He said that he watched the entire Eastern Conference finals and the finals, and found that Fanhee had made great progress, especially his breakthrough skills... Hill is known for his breakthroughs.

However, he is a talented player. Fan Xi needed five feints to pass the opponent, but Hill had an explosive power, kicked his long legs, and the opponent was sighing behind him.

"However, you need to increase your layup finishing ability and shooting ability during the offseason. When you initially have these two points, you can become a true elite player and a true master of tactical control."

Grant Hill pointed out the problem bluntly.

He regarded Fan Xi as a good friend.

Fan Xi humbly accepts that this is indeed the problem he continues to face.

This offseason, he plans to increase the amount of training a little more, while releasing more talents, he also wants to stack up the points. Strive for a higher level of strength before the start of the new season.

Moreover, Fan Xi hopes to accumulate all the points in the cheat book "Basic NBA Layup" two months before the start of the new season.

In this way, Fan Xi's attack firepower will inevitably achieve a qualitative leap.

In this way, he entered the room and entered the category of elite players.

Otherwise, it is still an epic-level "parasite" that relies on the tactical system and teammates.

Maybe changing the head coach will cause a complete change, maybe even returning to the bench.

Currently, the news that Pat Riley is leaving New York gradually surfaced. Miami also publicly expressed the hope that Shen Suanzi will join, and said that it can meet all the requirements of Riley.

Judging from Riley's attitude, his first choice must be to stay in New York. After all, he just won the championship and it is the moment to forge ahead.

However, if the New York management can't give him the power he wants, he will definitely leave.

After all, he is the only active head coach who has proven himself and commanded two teams in the east and west to win the championship in the current league.

In his heart, Vanhey hoped that Pat Riley would get what he wanted, even though he knew nothing about the Knicks' high-level operation.

However, Old Dolan had his own considerations.

He thinks long term.

On the one hand, he needs Dave Chertz to help him continue to gather equity in the hands of minority shareholders, a job that Pat Riley, who was born as a player, cannot do. Moreover, Pat Riley clearly rejected the position of deputy general manager, and Pat Riley hoped that he could get some equity in New York.

It's like Magic Johnson getting a stake in the Los Angeles Lakers.

He even promised Jim Dolan that he can help the team win two more championships within five years, and if not, the equity can be taken back.

Pat Riley is not reconciled to just being a part-time worker, he wants to dominate.

However, what Jim Dolan is doing is taking back all the dispersed equity. He wanted his prodigal son to hold all the power in the future.

With his son's IQ, he is very worried that in the future, small shareholders will unite to drive him out.

The beloved son of the parents has a far-reaching plan for it.

No matter how much Little Dolan wishes his father to die soon, as a father, he always has to consider his son.

Most importantly, Jim Dolan has no confidence in his son's mastery of the strongman Pat Riley.

What if Pat Riley doesn't dump his son at all if he burps?

to be honest.

Jim Dolan is no longer thinking about winning several championships in the next few years, he is thinking about things ten or twenty years from now.

He hopes that his son will be a rich and idle man, even if he behaves mischievously, even if he will never win the championship, so what?

As long as the New York Knicks and Madison Square Garden are firmly in the hands of the Dolan family, the prodigal will never be short of money.

The Knicks, deep in the core area of ​​New York, are so charming that you never have to worry about ticket revenue and peripheral revenue.

So, basically...if Pat Riley doesn't give up his claim, don't back down.

His departure was a foregone conclusion.

James Dolan ignored these, he was full of confidence in himself, and he even felt that it would be okay to let Pat Riley be the president. As long as he supports his plan: Trade Patrick Ewing for Shaquille O'Neal.

"Who do you think will be the No. 1 pick in this year's draft?" Grant Hill and Fan Xi chatted for a while about the use of breakthrough technology, and then talked about the draft that will start tonight.

However, they will definitely be flying over the Pacific Ocean by then.

New York to Tokyo is a long flight.

"It should be Joe Smith." Fan Xi didn't care much about the NCAA, but he could always see this name. In the past college season, he led the University of Maryland to the Sweet Sixteen, even overwhelming NCAA star insiders such as Tim Duncan, Antonio McDyess, and Rasheed Wallace.

Grant Hill nodded, and he thinks the same: The Golden State Warriors like this kind of power forward who can shoot and respond. They may think that Joe Smith is the next Chris Webber.

Fan Xi felt that the two were not comparable. Chris Webber became famous at a young age. In Vanhey's high school years, Webber was already a household name and a superstar player. The momentum of the Michigan Five Tigers could even be tied with Jordan that year.

So far, the American basketball world still has the plot of the Michigan Five Tigers.

For example, Mr. Ross, who has been making trouble for Fan Xie, is enjoying the bonus of the Michigan Five Tigers.

But now, with Fan Xie winning the Finals MVP, the two are no longer in the same class.

Fan Xi's name can already be used with super potential stars such as Grant Hill and Anfernee Hardaway... although this is due to some other factors.

Hill then chatted with Vanhee about two of this year's North Carolina players, Stackhouse and Rasheed Wallace.

It can be seen that Hill, who was born in Duke, is very concerned about the students in North Carolina, and the two teams can be regarded as the old enemies of the NCAA. It's like the relationship between the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers.

Fanhee didn't have much interest in these two players, but Fanhee knew that Starks was the MVP of the McDonald's All-American Game the year before. But Fan Xi believes that if Iverson hadn't been imprisoned at the time and he could have participated, Starks might not have been Iverson's opponent, even though he was a grade higher than Iverson.

Because the journey was so long, all the topics of conversation between the two ranged from personal skills, to the draft, to the impact of Barkley joining the West, and at the same time, they also estimated the record of the Chicago Bulls in the new season.

Both of them are very passionate about basketball.

There is always so much to talk about when it comes to basketball.

Because of the existence of each other, the long flight is no longer boring.

At the same time, the staff behind Hill are actively discussing the publicity of their trip to Asia.

Their team, including Grant Hill, hope to gain popularity in the Asian region.

In contrast, Delfina is calmer and more confident.

At the age of 20, she even felt that these guys were pretending to work hard. Why did they all board the plane and still discuss and argue about how to promote it?

Shouldn't these tasks have been completed before departure?

Delfina didn't know that not everyone was like her, with the boss mindset that was cultivated since childhood. Although she is young, the height and breadth of her thinking are unmatched by others.

...

After a long flight, the plane finally arrived in Tokyo.

The first thing they did when they got off the plane, Fan Xie and Hardaway asked about the final result of the draft.

The final result was much the same as their guess on the plane.

Joe Smith was the first pick, followed by Antonio McDyess, Rasheed Wallace, Stackhouse, Kevin Garnett...

"How do you know that Kevin Garnett will be selected with the fifth overall pick?" Hill asked Fan Xie strangely when he saw the result.

Fansee told him truthfully that a week ago, Garnett told me that Minnesota had given him a draft commitment.

Hill, who had been studying in the NCAA for four years, suddenly realized. He feels that Van Heede's success has changed the pattern of the NBA draft. In the future, more and more talented high school students will choose to skip college and bring their talent to the professional league.

After all, there is no money to play in the NCAA. And once you enter the NBA, you will become a millionaire with a guarantee.

For most players, this is an irresistible temptation.

Not every player is like Hill, from a wealthy family.

Hill then told Van Hee about the Pistons' draft this year. The Pistons had two first rounds and two second rounds this year. After the Bad Boys fell apart, they entered a complete reconstruction.

The Knicks have no draft picks this year, and their draft picks were traded last year to get Van Heede.

Therefore, Fan Xi doesn't care much about the draft.

What shocked him was that on draft night, San Antonio reached a deal with the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls only used a center who averaged 6.6 points and 5.8 rebounds per game to switch to Dennis Rodman, who averaged 16.8 rebounds per game last season.

The deal was even rated as a lose-lose.

No one is optimistic about Dennis Rodman's prospects in the Bulls. Everyone thinks that he will pack up and leave within one season.

However, Fan Xi fell into high tension.

Even his hands were shaking when he saw the news. He realizes...a horror team is officially formed.

Finally, Dave Chertz and Pat Riley still did not stop this from happening.

Knowing this, Fan Xi went to find James Dolan. Maybe, this little boss, under his temperament, can bring Dennis Rodman here even without using Charles Smith, Anthony Mason, and Charles Oakley.

well!

History is really not that easy to shake.

…

In the hotel, Fan Xi met the gorgeous Anfernee Hardaway.

He came to Tokyo a day earlier, and he has already participated in two events.

When he saw Fan Xi and Grant Hill, he immediately raised his chin with a haughty expression.

The grievances between him and Fan Xi were brought from the field to the field, but he and Grant Hill maintained a superficial peace.

"Hey Grant, you know what? Yesterday afternoon, hundreds of crazy fans rushed to my nanny car, they wanted my autograph so badly. I never dreamed that there were so many fans on the other side of the ocean."

Anferney said triumphantly.

He is very happy that he has such a high popularity in Japan. "This is not something that can be exchanged for an MVP trophy. Japanese fans know football."

Hadaway said something strange.

Fan Xi ignored him and went straight to his room.

Grant Hill politely said a few words to Hardaway, and followed him.

The very gentlemanly forward even spoke for Hardaway: "Anferney is like this. He cares too much about winning or losing. Your sanctions against him this year are inhumane."

Fan Xi smiled.

Then, Hill continued to comfort Fan Xie, and gave Fan Xie psychological counseling in advance: Jack. For tomorrow's event, don't be discouraged even if you don't get as many cheers from us. After all, the league has been promoting me and Hardaway.

Hill is a hot guy. And he knows something about Asian history: you might not be very welcome here.
