17. My brother's name is Doug

Li Qun turned on the GPS car positioner and sent Chamberlain to the Byron Garden Hotel smoothly. The two of them had a very happy chat on the way. Chamberlain met such an elegant and generous Chinese woman for the first time, and felt a little fond of Li Qun.

When he arrived at the hotel, Chamberlain got out reluctantly and invited politely: "Li Qun, do you want to go to my place for a cup of coffee?"

Hearing Chamberlain's invitation, Li Qun's eyebrows frowned slightly and declined, "Sorry, I'll have to hold a meeting when I go back. Oh, you know, we're just off work now, and we have to go back and sort out the news we'll report tomorrow, so time may be inconvenient."

Chamberlain smiled and nodded, knowing that his invitation was a bit abrupt. These NBA players all had rich pockets and had sufficient hormone secretion, so they often made unclear news with women. Li Qun was probably worried that what would happen if she entered Chamberlain's room.

After exchanging mobile phone numbers, the two separated. Chamberlain whistled and was full of satisfaction. It was wonderful tonight. He became famous in one battle, met a beautiful woman, and earned 20,000 US dollars, especially the latter. He has not yet received the salary paid to him by the team. The 20,000 US dollars is his entire net worth, and he can call his family to help pay off his debts.

With a victory, the Warriors returned to Golden State the next day. Jackson and his group of people played in nightclubs until four o'clock before they came back. They got on the bus and started to sleep. Chamberlain slept well last night, so how could they let them sleep so peacefully? So they tossed each other.

Jackson and others looked helpless. They could not beat Chamberlain in a fight, and the latter still used the matter of leaving him in the stadium last night to talk about it. They didn't make any sense and could only be tortured by him so that they had no power to fight back.

However, Chamberlain did not go to settle the score with Samar. He felt that this guy was amazing. His encounter with Li Qun last night seemed to have been under this guy's calculations.

In order to soothe Chamberlain's resentment, Jackson, Davis, Barnes and others said good things to coax him. They took out newspapers for him to show them and praised him from various angles:

"Look at this, California Sportsman, see what it said. Last night, the Giant Goliath arrived at the Staples Center Arena. He scored a triple-double in the mall for 30 minutes, and the number of rebounds almost exceeded 20, breaking multiple league records. Oh! Z, you became famous, you became famous completely!"

"What is this? Look at the report of "Red Sports News". The Warriors have won the best rookie in the history of the league. If this Chinese guy named Chamberlain continues to perform like this, the San Francisco will soon be able to win the O'Brien Cup. What does a guy who can get a triple-double in his debut represent? What does a young center who can score 18 rebounds on the bench represent? In this era when high-quality big men lack, everything goes without saying..."

"This is not bad, it's news from the Philadelphia Sentinels - Oh, Zhang, you're so happy. Even the Philadelphia Sentinels are following you! Chamberlain took the first step in the legendary road. This young man who had not participated in the draft brought a huge puzzle to the world. Where did he come from? Why didn't we know such an outstanding young man before?"

Chamberlain listened proudly to these people reading good words from the newspaper to praise him. In fact, he had read this stack of newspapers, and there were many news in it that questioned him, but Jackson and others obviously would not read those news to disgust him.

Almost everyone read a news, and Jackson asked, "Z, are you satisfied now? Can we have a good sleep?"

It was about 400 miles from Los Angeles to San Francisco, or about 600 kilometers. This time they came to play basketball without taking a special plane. The distance was relatively short, so it was more appropriate to take a bus. Sleeping on a spacious bus was the only thing the players could do, especially when these people played all night last night.

Chamberlain refused, "That's not OK, you hurt a rookie's young heart last night, so..." His cell phone rang. When Chamberlain saw that the caller ID was Sachmond's phone, he let Jackson go and waved his hand, "You are lucky, Mr. Chamberlain is kind-hearted and broad-minded, forgiving you, okay, get out of the way to sleep!"

"God, praise Chamberlain with a broad mind!" Ellis said weakly, snatched a seat in the front row and lay down and started to sleep soundly.

Old Nelson looked back at this scene with a satisfied smile on his face. Every team has a tradition of bullying newcomers. The Warriors did a good job in this regard. The team was united. Chamberlain had been in this team less than ten days after coming. It was obviously better to play games with such a group of brothers together.

Doug Sachmond is Chamberlain's best friend and his best comrade-in-arms on the court in the seventh, eighty and nineth grades. Chamberlain's reputation was only famous in the seventh, eighty and nineth grades. When he was in high school, he became a common person after he found out about Giant disease, but Sachmond was not like this.

Sachmond is the most popular high school student in San Francisco's history. He was once known as the number one point guard in the United States. In high school, his fight with OJ Mayo was once the most eye-catching place in the U.S. high school. At that time, Sachmond won the favor of many stars, such as JAY-Z, the king of rap. The famous director Spike Lee often came to watch his games live. New York Yankees star Derek Kitt is also his hardcore fan.

Throughout high school, Sachmond was the pride of San Francisco fans. Everyone believed that he would become the best NBA star in San Francisco's history. Nelson was also familiar with him. It is rumored that the reason why the old coach was willing to leave the Mavericks and come to the Warriors to re-train the coach was that the Warriors' management agreed to try his best to pick it up when Sachmond participated in the draft.

In his three years in high school, Sachmond led him and Chamberlain to the Western Conference High School League, where St. Lawrence High School, where he and Chamberlain were located, and his opponents were abandoned. After watching his game, Duke Blue Devils coach Mike Shasevsky said that he should go directly to the NBA, and there was no defender who could be as famous as him in high school and even in the college league.

If nothing unexpected happens, Sachmond should have the opportunity to grow into another new generation super point guard after Paul, Deron and others in the league. After attending the Nike High School Summit in Sachmond in 2005 and winning the MVP, Isaiah Thomas, then general manager of the New York Knicks, once said: "If I have the No. 1 pick in my hand, if Sachmond participates in this year's draft, I will definitely take him off without hesitation."

Isaiah Thomas's general manager career is notorious, but he has a very accurate view of people. Including McGrady and David Lee, a group of potential rookies, were always favored by him. And his most famous career is naturally with the Pistons.

Mr. 'Smiling Assassin' is known as one of the three best point guards in NBA history. He naturally has a deep understanding of point guards, but even he praised Sachmond, which shows how glorious this guy was in high school.

Unfortunately, everything changed in the summer of 2005.

In the summer of 2005, just after Sachmond received an invitation from the University of Kentucky, the ecstatic family decided to go on vacation in Los Angeles. As a result, they were in a car accident on the highway where Chamberlain and others were now on.

The car accident destroyed Sachmond and his family. His parents died on the spot. His younger brother Hit Sachmond was seriously injured. His left knee ligament was torn and two nerves were severely damaged. The doctor who rescued him at the time once asserted that he had to rely on crutches to walk all his life.

As a result, after a year of recovery, Sachmond successfully stood on the court again. However, this time he went to the NBDL and could never go to the NBA anymore. His physical fitness really could not support him to step onto the NBA arena. However, relying on his skillful skills and superhuman consciousness, Sachmond became the top organizational guard in the NBDL. You know, at this time, he could no longer run fast and jump far.

If it weren't for this car accident, how high would Sachmond have been? Chamberlain didn't know, but he couldn't be sure that if Sachmond was not injured, then the NBA point guards at this time shouldn't be Paul, Deron, Kidd, and Nash who scored four points in the world.

If there was no such damn car accident, Sachmond should have participated in the draft this season, and according to the Warriors' expectations, he should have come to the team Chamberlain is currently in.

Although Chamberlain became a waste on the basketball court in high school, Sachmond always regarded him as his comrade-in-arms, and played with him all the time, encouraging him not to give up on himself. Therefore, the relationship between the two was very good. However, now Sachmond went to the NBDL Bulls in Austin. The two were far apart, so they had less contact.

In fact, Chamberlain is a little confused now. He feels that his current situation is very unreal. All this belongs to Sachmond. It is Sachmond's debut perfection. It is Sachmond's appearance that helped the Warriors agree to the Warriors, and everything should be replaced by Sachmond.

Looking at Sachmond's name on the phone, Chamberlain fell into remembrance of the past. He did not come to his senses until the phone rang out and quickly called Sachmond back.

After a beep, the phone immediately answered, and Sachmond's rough voice sounded: "Hi, Zhang, I can't believe it. Is it you who taught the Lakers a lesson in Los Angeles last night? If I hadn't read the newspaper today, I wouldn't have known all this happened! You bastard, you actually joined the NBA? Why didn't you tell me?"

Not only did he not tell Sachmond, but Chamberlain didn't even tell his parents and family about this, because it was incredible: a man suffering from Giant disease and had been sentenced to death by sports suddenly had a super explosive body? This was incredible and could not be accepted at all.

Therefore, Chamberlain just accompanied by Samar to find a community to rent a living next to the Oracle Arena. In fact, the stadium was not far from his home, but he dared not go home because he could not explain to his family why his physical fitness suddenly became so explosive.
