Chapter XXXVII
When summer arrives, the temperature in Chicago rises dramatically. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
On the streets, most of the young people in shorts and shorts walk around, and the midsummer sun is like a dip in chili pepper water, burning on the skin, without a trace of shade.
Trees, houses, the Chicago River flows quietly through the Loup, and a slight breeze blows on the surface of Lake Michigan.
In the villa area of Highland Park, Yang Di stood at the door.
"Uncle William, thank you for taking care of me during this time, I'm leaving."
"Congratulations on achieving your dream, to be honest, I haven't eaten as good as yours for a long time, and you've been feeling better and better lately."
"Because the ingredients are better, the heat rises a little bit after more practice." Yang Di smiled slightly, in fact, he had done too many instant tasks, and his cooking skills had been upgraded from [Full-time Level 5] to [Elite Level 4]. From the perspective of the system's life skill upgrading, each job title has nine levels, the weakest is [amateur], followed by [full-time], and then [elite]. Yang Di currently has four major skills, in addition to cooking, the bartending skill is the second one that has been upgraded, and he has reached [full-time level six], then the fighting skills (sanda) have been upgraded to [full-time level two], and finally the driving skills [amateur level eight].
William smiled and took out the envelope from his pocket, "This is your salary balance, and a part of your performance, all of which will be sent to you in cash." ”
Yang Di generously accepted it, which was the income of his labor, and he was at ease with the land.
"Did the Heat contact you?"
"I've contacted my agent, and I'm going to go to the team's stadium in the next two days to report, and then I'm going to play in the summer league, and after the summer league is over, I won't know if I can sign a contract."
"There's definitely nothing wrong with that." Uncle William laughed, the sun shining on his gray hair, especially warm.
"Then I'll go first." Yang Di waved his hand.
"By the way," William remembered one thing, "tonight, Miss Hannah will have a party, and you should come too, as a guest." ”
Yang Di fell in a cold sweat, and refused weakly: "I, no, no, no, I may still need to train tonight, so I won't come to participate." ”
"That's a pity, Miss Hannah has always wanted to see you, but unfortunately you are both very busy. When she heard that you had found a new job and were leaving, she was very reluctant. ”
Yang Di's heart was even more strange when he heard it, if Hannah knew that he was the man who was on him that day, he would definitely not say so.
The two chatted for a few more words, and then Yang Di turned around and said goodbye.
......
The Chinese media is very excited, this year's draft, there are two Chinese players selected by the NBA team, counting Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi and Battle, who are still working in the NBA, it is very likely that there will be five Chinese players in the NBA next year.
This is really exciting for the media, and the names of Yang Di and Xue Yuyang have also been featured in the media, among which the mysterious Yang Di is even more eye-catching.
But there are not many people who really take action and are ready to go to Miami to visit Yang Di.
In terms of cost and the choice of interviews, the choice of freshness and exposure, there will still be most media under special requirements to report on Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi and others in a large way. Intentionally or unintentionally, it gradually reduces the impact of this draft, after all, people who don't know it are really eye-catching.
Miami, American Airlines Arena, Rookie Reporting Day.
The old man on the side of the court looked at him with great interest, his white hair was neatly combed, his face was wrinkled like a ravine, but his eyes were bright and sharp, and he looked very oppressive.
"Dwyan, who is this guy, looking at us for a long time." Yang Di finished the last set of bench press tests, rested on the bench on the sidelines, and chatted with the newly met black guy on the side.
This black guy is Dwyane Wade, the scoring guard that the Heat drafted with the fifth pick in the draft this year. Although he is only 21 years old, he has obvious muscle lines, a strong body, and a very developed upper body strength, and his strength is on par with Yang Di's serious inner line, which makes Yang Di admire him very much.
"He? You don't even know each other? Wade looked at Yang Di again with an alien's eye.
Yang Di touched his head: "I really don't know." ”
"Pat Riley, our team's general manager, I think you should know."
"He's Pat Riley!" Yang Di was taken aback, he saw a report two days ago, and now the media is criticizing and condemning Pat Riley's operation in the draft.
I didn't expect the main lord to be here, and it looked really stern.
The staff handed Pat Riley and Stan Van Gundy the latest body side report, the most accurate and comprehensive body flank report for Wade and Young Di.
Wade: The height of the bare foot is 6 feet 3.75 inches, about 193 centimeters, the arm span is 6 feet 10.25 inches, about 210.2 centimeters, the standing touch height is 8 feet 6 inches, about 259.08 centimeters, the weight is 212 pounds and about 96 kilograms, the body fat content is 6.7 percent, the bounce in place is 31.5 inches or about 80.01 centimeters, the running bounce is 35 inches and about 88.9 centimeters, the 100-meter sprint speed is 10.82 seconds, and the height of the one-foot jump is 141 inches, about 358.14 centimeters.
Yang Di: The height of the bare foot is 6 feet 8.9 inches, about 205.5 cm, the arm span is 7 feet 0.5 inches or about 214.6 cm, the height of the battle is 8 inches 11.5 cm, about 273.05 cm, the weight is 245 pounds and about 111 kg, the fat content of the whole body is 13.7 percent, the bounce is 25 inches on the spot is about 60.9 cm, the run-up bounce is 29 inches about 73.6 cm, the 100-meter sprint speed is 14.7 seconds, and the height of the run-up jump is 11 feet 9.5 inches, about 359.4 cm.
"Well, Yang Di's physical fitness is good." After Pat Riley got the report, his eyes lit up, in addition to speed, Yang Di's various statistics are not too bad among rookie players on the inside.
"The arm span is a little bit embarrassing, if it's an outside player, the requirements for arm span are not so high, but he is an inside player." Van Gundy told the truth, he has always liked the traditional type of big center inside, and given Yang Di's poor arm span, until now, he has not been optimistic about Yang Di's development prospects.
"But Dwyan's talent is really terrifying, his arm span is rare among outside players, and it is said that this year's champion, the high school student selected by the Cavaliers, has an arm span that is nothing more than that." Van Gundy liked Wade very much and praised Wade.
"Looking at the performance of the two people in the summer league, Wade can be regarded as instant combat power, and Yang Di needs to learn a lot of things."
The staff handed Yang Di and Wade a glass of water, and after the two wiped their sweat, the team's trainer George walked over.
"Today's task is relatively light, after a while of stretching training, you two will fight for a while."
"Huh?" Yang Di had a bitter face, "George, are you sure, Dwyan's speed is so fast, I can't guard him at all." ”
Wade laughed and patted Yang Di on the shoulder proudly.
"The bullfight I arranged for you has a rule that Dwyann must end the offense with a jumper, and outside of the paint area, Yang Di must use a back-to-back single to catch the ball."
"You can call me Dick Young." Yang Di corrected.
"Okay, Dick Young, you guys can get some rest and start after tomorrow, our Heat will have rookie camp reopen the day after tomorrow, and we may invite some undrafted rookies to come to tryouts. Also, do you have a good schedule, I will be traveling with you to Orlando around the 10th for this year's Summer League. ”
"Of course, it's been prepared for a long time." Yang Di was eager to try.
"No problem." Wade nodded.
Trainer George smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, I like your form like this, keep it up." ”
