Chapter 2 The King of Trouble

At the beginning of the season, Yang Xiao had a conflict with local reporters in Oakland. The incident was when a local white reporter asked him what capital he felt could become troublesome when he gained a foothold in the NBA. It can be said that Yang Xiao's joining the Warriors not only did not bring a large number of Chinese fans as expected by team manager Mulin, but also indirectly caused the division of Warriors fans. For the Warriors, this was definitely not the effect they wanted to see.

Throughout the season, Yang Xiao averaged 3 points, 1 rebound, 0.3 assists per game. This is definitely not an acceptable result for an 11-place rookie. This is also a reason why local fans in Oakland attacked Yang Xiao. As for the media, since Yang Xiao publicly wrestled with reporters at a press conference, he has become a special person in the media. McCorrist, a columnist of the Oakland Observer, is a representative figure, and Tommy will always be criticized. Thanks to these media reporters, although Yang Xiao's performance is not good, at least in the Oakland area, he is a household name. In McCorrist's words, "he can be a little worse." Chinese communities in the entire San Francisco area have filed a complaint about racial discrimination and are currently under trial.

However, considering that Yang Xiao averaged 4.3 minutes of playing time per game, there is a reason why his performance was so poor.

As for the fact that they had a dispute with the opponent's players on the court and then both were sent off, for Yang Xiao, it was just an insignificant part of this bad season, and it was not even worth mentioning.

In order to teach this rebellious Chinese player a lesson, the Warriors center Eric Danpier stuffed popcorn into Yang Xiao's shoes, which is a necessary treatment for NBA rookies. Only those who booked the team's boss seat like LeBron James can avoid it. However, since Yang Xiao's nickname has two hooligans, he naturally would not be so submissive. The next day, Danpier found that his BMW car was covered with cheese! He was constantly being harassed by ambiguous calls because Yang Xiao posted his phone number on the Internet and indicated that he wanted to seek comfort from a man with a broad mind!

Another bloody storm!

In terms of private life, Yang Xiao is also a model of degeneration of young players. Local Chinese media said that Yang Xiao’s parents have never appeared on the court. They even speculated that Yang Willie and Qiu Zhang had never been to Oakland at all. Obviously, the incident of Yang Xiao dropping out of Harvard University has a great blow to the couple.

The most famous peach news about Yang Xiao is that this kid openly spoke with a home cheerleader named Catherine during the away game in Los Angeles. After the game, he even appeared in the most famous nightclub in the local area and fought with the paparazzi who heard the news. This can only be evaluated in one sentence: the wrong time is the biggest mistake.

Before the end of the season, of course, the Warriors had lost the opportunity to enter the playoffs. Yang Xiao was arrested on the street by San Francisco police on the charge of speeding 20% ​​on the bustling street. Although he repeatedly protested that this was because in order to avoid the pursuit of paparazzi, the judge would not care so much. He was sentenced to work for 120 hours in the community and fined $100 million. It is worth mentioning that there was a mysterious woman sitting in Yang Xiao's car at the time, but Yang Xiao refused to disclose the name of the person involved. It is said to be a famous movie star. Of course, these are all speculations by reporters, and the authenticity is to be tested.

The biggest influence on Yang Xiao is the conflict with the players in the team, or the only player who performed well this season with the Warriors. Of course, after a season, Chinese fans will be extremely familiar with this person. This person is named Eric - the second center in the future league - Danpier. However, at this moment, Danpier showed the strength of an All-Star player. Considering the signing year, his performance may be discounted, but this is an era where big men are the king. People who can win double-double are qualified to get an annual salary of tens of millions.

"Every guy who gets beautiful data in a bad team should be wary of it, especially in the contract year!" The words of the famous coach Larry Brown are still vivid in his mind, but obviously many people can't remember it.

The incident was from Yang Xiao pointing out in person that Eric Danpier dragged down the team's speed and directly led to the Warriors becoming a team that was not like the four-way team. Of course, this is not what Yang Xiao means. Walton has been instilling this view into Yang Xiao. Whether as the best organizational center or famous commentator in history, Bill Danpier has the qualification, but rookie Yang Xiao does not. The fact is obvious that Eric Danpier's data is very gorgeous. It should be said that the team's incompetence has dragged down the center's achievements. Among them, represented by rookie Yang Xiao, it seems that the team's coach also thinks so. The rebellious Yang Xiao is not grateful after getting the chance to play in garbage time, and often has conflicts. In Chinese words, it is unbearable!

After listing these many facts, this detailed and well-founded article expresses a meaning: Yang Xiao is over this season and is strideing towards the end of his entire career. Compared with Yao Ming's steady rise, Yang Xiao, the No. 11 rookie in 2003, is a negative example. In this draft year, when James, Anthony, Bosh and others are making great strides, the career of Chinese player Yang Xiao seems to be almost over.

This directly led to a sharp decline in his popularity in China. Even Yang Xiao's hardcore supporter, "Sister Fairy", had nothing to say, after all, facts are the best evidence.

—————

But inside the Golden State Warriors, Dampier, who seemed to have won the internal struggle, had a good life because the season was over, but the Warriors had not yet asked him to renew his contract!

However, Eric Danpier was not in a hurry. His data was there and he received the support of team coach Musselman. The initiative was in Danpier's hands. It seemed that the Warriors had no choice: their famous big man was Chris Webber!
