Chapter 131 Fighting the Postman

   "Old K, I'm in Phoenix."

   "Lance, what are you doing here?" he asked casually.

   "Old K, Rob Lundgren and Will Houston have contacted us several times for a settlement."

   "Let them die."

   "OK, this problem is over, they will become your past tense. In addition, CAA helped you negotiate a menswear brand endorsement, in addition to signing the contract, this time you need to take some photos." Hawksman said.

   "Haha, Lance, you are really an angel." Pharaoh said with joy.

   He now believes that CAA really gave him money, surprises one after another, I hope every day is just fine.

   "This is a motorcycle-style brand called Heavy Pound." Hawksman said.

   "Heavy pounds? Good name, I think it suits my temperament." Pharaoh boasted.

  Old Zhang was amused and muttered, "Do you know what temperament you have?"

   "By the way, old K, can you ride a motorcycle?" Hawksman asked suddenly.

   "No problem, I have ridden Jialing Honda." Pharaoh said quickly.

   "OK, you have a game today, and the signing is scheduled for tomorrow, but I will go to you at night to discuss the contract details with you first." Hawksman said.

  …

  In the afternoon, the Suns had a two-hour recovery training, that is, activities, shooting, and no heavy lifting.

   At 1:30, the Jazz came to the Westside Arena and started training before the game.

The   Jazz are currently ranked a bit low, and the goal is to get into the top half, at least surpass the Trail Blazers, so this game will definitely be won.

During    training, several reporters were allowed to enter the stadium to conduct interviews.

   "Carl, are you confident against Barkley tonight?" Postman Malone was on the sidelines preparing for the event, and a reporter asked.

   "It's very confident to hit him," the postman said with a blank expression.

   "In the battle between the Knicks and the Suns, the inside combination of Ewing and Oakley also lost to Barkley and K. Do you think the Jazz's inside line has an advantage in front of the Suns?"

   another reporter asked.

  The postman showed a hint of icy disdain on his face and said, "Oakley and Ewing are too gentle with the Suns, but I won't."

  …

   In the evening, at half past six, the Suns entered the arena.

  Lance Hoxman has arrived, waiting outside the home team's locker room.

   "Lance, how long have you been here?" Pharaoh greeted.

   "It's only been ten minutes." Hawksman laughed.

After   the two shook hands, they chatted at the end of the corridor where there was no one else.

   "Let me tell you first, Clevins Law Firm has formally sued Rob Lundgren and Will Houston, and the Arizona State Court has heard it." Hoxman said.

   "That's great, it's better for these two **** to go bankrupt and sleep on the street." He said excitedly.

   "If the media they belong to doesn't give them a head start, we will win the lawsuit, and bankruptcy is their predetermined destiny."

  Hoxman laughed: "Actually, now they're out of work, which means those media have given up on them."

   "This is the outcome I hoped for," he said.

At this time, Hoxman said: "Old K, these are two lawsuits, you have to pay two lawyers' fees, Crivens gave us CAA face, and sent a barrister and a lawyer's fee. $300,000, two cents is $600,000."

  “…”

   He looked at Hawksman in a daze, and nodded for a long time: "Here, I just want to see them go bankrupt and sleep on the street."

   "OK." Hawksman nodded happily.

   In fact, he didn't lie. The price was indeed favorable. If it weren't for CAA's face, Clevins would never have taken the lawsuits against the white journalists.

   Next, he briefly talked about the endorsement contract of the menswear brand Heavyweight.

   Take photos of the four seasons a year, but you can take them all at once, and you don’t need to take them separately. This is the responsibility Wang Tiejun needs to fulfill.

   The endorsement period is three years, and the annual payment is 1 million US dollars. Half of it is paid when signing the contract, and the balance is paid after one year.

  Pharaoh was so happy that he picked up another $3 million in vain. CAA really is a gift boy.

   At this time, Hoxman said: "Old K, I hired a personal stylist, an accountant, a lawyer for you..."

   "No, I can accept accountants and lawyers. What do I want from a personal stylist? I can't eat them." Lao Wang said suspiciously.

  Hawksman said: "Old K, you are different now. Everything about you must conform to your social status, including food, clothing, housing, and transportation. You need packaging. Do you know why Chongjin is willing to sign you?"

   "Why?" Pharaoh asked.

   "Because they saw the elements of violence and heavy metal in you." Hawksman said.

  “…”

  Pharaoh can only express that I am helpless, let alone violent elements, what heavy metal elements, I am human, not music, do I have to carry an iron bucket on my body in the future?

Hawksman added: "So you need a stylist who can pack you into a temperament that is unique to you. You are a basket collector, a restricted area sweeper, brutality, ferocity, strength, it all belongs to you. Elements, this kind of temperament, can attract the favor of those brands.”

   "Okay okay, for the money, I agreed." Pharaoh surrendered.

   "And..." Hawksman said.

"and also?"

   "Yes, I'm here this time to buy you a villa of your own." Hawksman laughed.

   "You pay?" Old Wang asked tentatively.

   "Of course not, you pay for it yourself." Hawksman shook his head quickly.

   "Then I have no money." Old Wang immediately shook his head.

"No, the endorsement fee this time is enough. Of course you don't need to buy those luxury villas now, the average single-family villa is enough. The real estate price in Phoenix is ​​not high, and the average villa in the single-family community is 300,000 US dollars. It's enough, if it's a second-hand house, it will be cheaper, but it needs to be renovated." Hoxman laughed.

   "Must buy?" Lao Wang said.

   "You are a star, you must have your own style. CAA will not allow its star to live in a shabby rented house, which will lower the grade of CAA." Hawksman said.

   "Okay okay, let's pretend I didn't receive this endorsement." Old Wang could only agree.

   Now that he knows, CAA can bring him a lot, but it's also a hassle because they demand more from the signatory and cover almost everything.

   After chatting for a while, Hawksman left.

  …

In the locker room, Barkley repeatedly told Wang Tiejun: "Be careful of that **** in the postman, Oakley's elbow will not kill you or ruin your career, the purpose is to defend, but his elbow will, in his eyes. There is no opponent's safety at all, that is not in his consideration.

  Last season, when he played against the Pistons at home, he killed the smiling assassin with one elbow. Isiah Thomas had more than 40 stitches on his head, and he was lucky not to die.

  You have to remember his nickname, Dr. Iron Elbow. "

   "Got it." Old Wang nodded again and again.

   This is the experience that seniors like Barkley paid for their blood on the postman. He cherishes it very much, and he must pay attention to it, otherwise the blood of Barkley and the others will be shed in vain.

   Speaking of elbows, hey, he didn't dare to use the elbows to push the heart, the movements were too big, and with his strength and physique, even if his explosiveness was not enough, he could push a dead person with one elbow.

   His left hand rubbed his right elbow, and there was a layer of calluses there, as did his left elbow, and he muttered in his mouth: "Maybe, I should strike first?"

   "Old K, I'll check your brow bone to see if the stitches can be removed." Andrew John came over.

   "Look." Lao Wang said.

   After checking, the wound healed well, the stitches were removed quickly, some medicine was applied, and a Band-Aid was reapplied.

   "Be careful, don't get the postman's elbow here." Andrew John urged.

   At 7:30, the bench will be played, and the starting list will be announced at the same time.

  Sir: Mike Brown, Karl Malone, Tyrone Corbin, Jeff Malone, John Stockton

  Suns: Wang Tiejun, Barkley, Ceballos, Dan Marley, Kevin Johnson

  The game is not broadcast nationally, only the Phoenix area.

The on-site commentator was analyzing the lineup at this time: "The Jazz did not send their pseudo-starting center Mark Eaton, because they knew that this big guy with a height of 224 cm and a weight of 125 kg could not deal with the old K, so they sent a speeder. Quick insider Mike Brown.

   But I have to say, 120kg, 206cm role player Mike Brown, can he deal with old K? He can't be faster than old K.

   We often say that the old K is not able to move, but it is against the three super centers, against the super talented guys like Shaquille O'Neal and Mourning, not ordinary guys. "

   In the home team's locker room at this time, assistant coach Lewis is also analyzing the Jazz's lineup for everyone. This is just to strengthen the memory. In fact, I have already talked about it in the afternoon.

Comparing the lineups between the two teams, the No. 4 position can be evenly matched. The No. 3 Jazz’s Tyrone Corbin is average, but Ceballos is also a rookie and doesn’t get many opportunities. The No. 2 Jazz’s Jeff Malone and Dan Marley They're all All-Stars, with equal strength. John Stokes is a bit stronger at No. 1, but the Suns have a big advantage at No. 5.

Sir    is also doing the final tactical explanation.

   "Karl, you need to help the 5 on the defensive end and strengthen the weak side help defense." Jerry Sloan said.

  The postman Malone nodded, the three super centers and O'Neal would not double-team Wang Tiejun, but he had no such idea.

   In order to win, what is it to double-team a rookie, if that rookie prevents him from winning, he can use all means to deal with him.

   At 7:45, the starters of the two teams left the locker room and went to the player tunnel.

   "Malone, I warn you, don't mess with your **** elbow tonight."

   "Barkley, remember to stay away from me tonight, this is my warning to you."

   As soon as the two most powerful power forwards met today, they immediately attacked.

   They are all at their peak now, both in terms of strength and willpower, they have reached the peak, and they are full of confidence in themselves, which makes them full of momentum.

   Kevin Johnson and John Stockton, two of the league's top point guards, met with sparks.

   However, Kevin Johnson has come down from his peak this season, averaging only 16 points, 8 assists and 1.7 steals per game, while Stockton is still at his peak, averaging 15 points, 12 assists and 2.4 steals per game, so the latter has more momentum.

Wang Tiejun didn't look at his opponent tonight. Even if the Jazz's main center Mark Eaton was not injured, he was just a fake starter. When the average was less than 20 minutes per game, it can be said that the Jazz's No. 5 is stronger than the Bulls' No. 5. If it was bad, he didn't care at all, and his eyes fell on the postman Malone's face.

  This postman, he learned something from Barkley these two days.

   To put it simply, the Jazz No. 32 is a villain of villains on the court, and a scum off the court. It is said that he once impregnated a 13-year-old girl in college. I don't know if it is true or not, anyway, the postman does not admit it.

   But this is actually true, because the illegitimate daughter of the postman entered the WNFL twenty years later. Although the postman did not recognize this illegitimate daughter, he gave her sports talent.

   "Boy, what are you looking at?"

   Postman Ma Long squinted at Pharaoh and scolded coldly.

   Old Wang blinked and said, "I'm looking at you, what's your business?"

  “…”

  The postman Ma Long was startled, this is a bit philosophical and difficult to understand.

   "Puff!"

  Buckley couldn't hold back, laughing.

   Postman Malone reacted, this kid was playing with himself, and immediately became furious.

   When is it a rookie's turn to play him? Even those guys in Jordan's big dream are not qualified to play him, how dare this rookie?

   "Damn rookie, do you want to make trouble?" He rushed in front of Pharaoh with two big strides, his chest widened, and he slammed into it.

   "Boom!"

   The two collided, the postman who took the initiative to collide took a small step back, and Wang Tiejun also backed up a little.

   "Go away, you **** Doctor Iron Elbow!" Old Wang shouted angrily, pushing the postman away with both palms.

   "All step back, step back!"

   A team of security guards in the player tunnel reacted quickly, and immediately rushed to separate the two teams of players, stood in the middle, and separated them.

   "The power is very strong!"

  Pharaoh looked at the postman across from the wall.

The muscles all over the body, the chest muscles are particularly developed, and the sense of strength is full. A pair of elbows are indeed very thick, the muscles of the upper arms are abnormally developed, and the muscles of the lower limbs are also very developed. .

He didn't use the iron mount just now, otherwise the postman wouldn't be able to hit him at all. In this case, if he didn't use the iron mount when he was hitting the back in a low position, it might be difficult to hit the postman, even if he was 8 heavier. Kilogram.

   "Boy, you wait!"

   At this time, the visiting team started to play. The fierce-looking postman raised his finger and pointed at Wang Tiejun, dropped a cruel word, and walked out of the aisle.

   "Be careful, old K, this guy is very aggressive on the field, full of malice!"

  This time, it was Kevin Johnson's turn to tell Pharaoh that every time he played the Jazz, his breakthroughs were very few, because he was afraid that he would be killed by the postman in the elbow.

   "Be careful!" Dan Marley urged.
