Chapter 9 Can I play in the NBA?

"Just kidding, what's going on?" The audience on the court did not react, because they all knew that Haslem would definitely not use all his strength in this kind of game, and it was not surprising that he was snatched the rebound by others.

But Haslem is different. He knew clearly that he had not let go of water at all.

This way, the problem is a little different.

Haslem is an NBA player after all. Although he can only serve as a substitute in the game, he is the absolute main player among substitutes. He often depends on Haslem alone in the interior defense and rebound protection.

"This guy is better than me in rebounding?" Haslem's average rebounding average is not high, but it is not low. At least among the Heat, only Bosh, who has more than twice his playing time.

Now a fat man who was like playing soy sauce came over and could actually pick up rebounds on his head. How could Haslem remain calm? Although he still had a smile on his face, Haslem was already a little unhappy.

It sounds a bit embarrassing to play basketball with NBA players and amateur players, but Haslem understands it very well. If he loses to an amateur passerby, no matter whether he has let the water go or not, this person will be lost!

So Haslem didn't care whether he was giving in or not, and stood at the basket and reached out to get the ball.

When the players on the same team as Haslem saw that Haslem was actually asking for it at a low post, they were immediately delighted and quickly dropped the ball to him.

After Haslemy took the ball, he looked at the situation and found that no one was defending him. The fat Chinese man stood on the other side of him and had no intention of coming up to fight against him to defend.

Haslem hesitated a little now. Looking at the basket that was so close to him, there were two options in Haslem's mind.

"Shot? Don't shoot?"

If it is in the NBA, Haslem doesn't even think about this situation and just jumped in. This position is not far or near, just his shooting radius. With no one to guard, Haslem's shooting percentage can reach 99%.

But now it's not in the NBA field, is it meaningful to shoot like this?

After less than a second of his struggle, Haslem decisively dribbled the ball and rushed to the basket.

Rush to the basket and a dunk! This is what Haslem wants to do now.

Although Haslem is just an inside player, he is very fast and rushed to the basket in one step. He shouted inwardly, and his feet were about to jump and dunk.

But just as he held the basketball tightly in the air and was about to aim at the basket and smash it hard, one hand suddenly appeared in the center of the basketball.

Under Haslem's extremely shocked gaze, the basketball in his hand was directly shot out. Haslem, who landed on the ground, immediately looked back, but he still saw the fat man's harmless smiling face.

"How is that possible?" There was an uproar on the sidelines. Everyone looked at Wang Dapao in surprise. In just less than a minute, this unsightly fat man had already delivered two big hot pots, both of which were very beautiful. More importantly, there was Haslem in it!

In the NBA, Haslem often gets hit, but that was in the NBA, in that genius league! Haslem is also one of these geniuses who can play in the NBA, but now he is covered up by a guy shorter than him and fatter than him on the street, which makes the audience around him a little stunned.

"No! Haslem must have deliberately slowed down and expressed kindness like a foreign friend! This is absolutely impossible!" The audience quickly found a suitable excuse for their surprise, but this excuse could not be heard by Haslem.

Haslem was stunned. By the time he fully realized, the friendly match was over.

Haslem's team was completely defeated by Wang Dapao's team.

"Is this an NBA-level player? Why is it so simple? It's just like a simple computer." Wang Dapao looked at his two ecstatic teammates, but he felt a little strange.

"What a mess." The system couldn't laugh. "Your defensive attributes are all full, and you're fighting against Haslem, and you're naturally relaxed and tight. Besides, basketball is a five-person sport. On the court, it's important to constantly cooperate with tactics. One-on-one victory with players does not mean you can really adapt to the NBA. And your offense..."

Wang Dapao smiled awkwardly when he heard the last sentence.

In terms of offense, Wang Dapao did not have anything to do with his victory in this game. Wang Dapao made a lot of moves in the whole game, but he didn't hit it once, including four or five shots at the basket and one dunk attempt, all ended in failure. Wang Dapao had to admit one fact, that is, his offensive attributes were really bad.

After the game ended, the event was almost done. Haslem itself was not a very famous star, and there were not many spectators. It would be almost done after a while.

"Man, you play well, this is what you deserve." Haslem handed a beautiful ticket to Wang Dapao, and looked at Wang Dapao with a more complicated look. This guy could be said to have completely blown himself a few minutes ago. Others may not be able to see it, but he knew that he had used all his strength. He tried many ways on the offensive end, but he did not get a single point under Wang Dapao's defense.

Although he was reluctant to admit it, Haslem still had to see a reality clearly. Sports is really talented.

"Thank you!" Wang Dapao took the ticket and looked carefully. This was the first time he had seen a real NBA ticket in reality. This thing is worth dozens of dollars. Some famous teams such as the Lakers are usually more than one hundred dollars, which is almost a thousand yuan less.

"Have you played basketball before?" Looking at Wang Dapao's joyful look, Haslem hesitated for a moment, and asked this question that made him feel uneasy.

"I've fought!" Wang Dapao said naturally, "I've been fighting the 2K series for several years."

Haslem: "..."

"By the way!" Wang Dapao suddenly thought of the main purpose of coming here this time, "Haslem, I want to play in the NBA. Can you recommend it for me?"

"What?" Haslem's eyes widened. The first reaction in his mind was impossible, and he wanted to tell Wang Dapao, "Not even a cat or a dog can come in in the NBA."

But at the moment when he was about to refuse, he was stunned. He could not help but think of his defeat on the court today. The unpretentious little fat man in front of him completely beat him up today.

Perhaps it was because I was not in good condition today, but Haslem was still confident in his own strength. Even if he was in poor condition, he would not be like that. Therefore, the fat man in front of him was indeed a bit real.

Generally, in this case, no matter what, Haslem will refuse, because he is a player, not a scout! Who is idle and fucked as a scout? But now looking at the chubby guy in front of him, Haslem thought of more.

The new season has been around for a long time, and the Heat, who formed the Super Three Big Three, has not been able to achieve an invincible record as people imagine. The mutual discomfort between James and Wade and Bosh's loss in the vortex of the third giant's third core has made the Heat always in a tepid position on the record list.

The Heat, which formed the three giants, has also become the forefront and is shrouded in criticism from all walks of life.

As a member of the Heat, Haslem naturally knows what the Heat lacks now.

Rebound! Defense!

The discomfort between James and Wade will become tacit understanding bit by bit, and Bosh will gradually adapt to how to play in the core position. The important issues that the Heat need to seriously consider are rebounds and defense.

There is no way, the Heat's rebounding is too bad, and the Heat's rebounding efficiency is the worst in 30 teams in the entire league.

With two inside starters, Bosh averaged about 8 rebounds per game, while Joel Anthony only had a pitiful 3. The total number of rebounds in the two starters was not as good as many teams with one starter. How to play this?

Haslem's main task in the team is to protect rebounds, but even so, he only has 8 rebounds per game, which is just a drop in the bucket for the Heat's weak inside defense.

Everyone in the Heat understands the weaknesses of the Heat, but they can't do anything.

Excellent inside players are very expensive. A year-round salary like Haslem has to earn more than $4 million a year. Even a super soy sauce like Joel Anthony can earn three million an annual salary. The Heat, who just signed the Big Three, doesn't have more money to introduce excellent inside players.

The annual salary of each of the three giants is more than 16 million, and the three of them have reduced their salary by a part of the salary. Even so, it has made the Heat, which is not particularly big in the market, extremely nervous. The Heat are willing to introduce better inside players, but there is no way.

So, when he looked at the fat man in front of him who made him completely at a loss in the inside today and asked himself if he could introduce him to the NBA, Haslem was suddenly moved.

This guy doesn't have to perform very well. As long as he is similar to himself or even worse than himself, it is enough. How much annual salary does such a guy who has never joined the NBA or NDBA need to join an NBA team?

Three hundred thousand! This is the labor-management agreement reached by the NBA in 1998. The minimum annual salary of newly joined NBA players shall not be less than 300,000 US dollars.
