Super Lord of the Rings

Wang Jun dialed the phone and came straight to the point. "Chris, did you renew the Rockets after your contract expires? If you don't renew, are you interested in joining the Kings?"

Sure enough, as he thought, not a brother would be able to join forces, Kaman asked: "If I join the King, what kind of contract can I be given? I am afraid it will not exceed 4 million a year, right?"

Wang Jun thought for a while, embarrassedly: "Probably like this."

Kaman sighed: "Dude, I don't want to join forces with you, but I want to make a starter and fight for a big contract. I am only 30 years old this year and I don't want to get a veteran contract. So, I plan to wait for a quote in the free market, If no team is willing to pay me a high salary, I will join the King again."

"Okay. Good luck."

Wang Jun didn't persuade, he said a few words and hung up the phone.

Kaman is at a trough in his career, hoping to return to the top and become a star center, even a second-rate star.

This man looks like a lunatic, but he thinks a lot. At the age of 30, many players are still at their peak and can sign high-paying long-term contracts. As an ambitious person, how can he be willing to retire in advance?

Kaman didn't accept Wade when he was drafted, and he refused to accept Brand after entering the league. He was capable, but he was unlucky, suffered several injuries, and the data dropped to 13 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 2 assists.

He averaged 2 assists per game in 29.2 minutes. His ability to respond is not bad. Plus a shot in his hand, he is good at pick-and-roll and opens up space. Being able to defend the rim with a meat shield, even if there is no team giving 10 million annual salary, it is not a problem to get 8 million.

On July 1, the free market opened.

Carter's agent contacted Petrie without any hesitation, and he signed the King for 9 million in three years. "Half-man half-god" has been reduced to a role player, this contract is too worthwhile, the king's outside strength has once again improved.

Gerald Green has no place and won't be renewed.

After considering Allen, he feels that he is retiring too early and will not sign a big contract with other teams. It is good for the King to follow the championship.

As a result, he rejected the Knicks' offer of 5 million a year and renewed the King's contract for 3.8 million two years. For him, money is no longer important, and he made enough money when he was young. Following the king established a dynasty and won three consecutive championships, which made him more tempted.

The King's third signing also came very quickly. As Ray Allen ran out of salary space, the King made a bid for power forward Elton Brand who was cut by the 76ers.

Swan's proposal was accepted, and the offer price was as high as possible, because it was difficult for Tajibson to stay. Introducing Brand can play two positions, have experience and have a CIC, and the inside weaknesses are easily resolved.

Even better is that if Brand is comfortable with the King and willing to renew with a low salary, no one will be available in the future.

The King's annual salary of 2.3 million US dollars won the bid smoothly and got the former All-Star inside.

According to the league's player bidding regulations, the Kings will only pay Brand $2.3 million in salary next season, and the remaining $16.1 million in Brand’s contract will be paid by the original owner’s 76ers.

With these three top-quality role players assisting, Wang Jun feels that the championship will be stable next season and no longer cares about the signing. It doesn't matter who comes from the marginal people, it won't take a few minutes anyway.

He found a long jump coach at the local track and field team in Sacramento, learning strength and take-off time, with remarkable results.

Wang Jun’s muscle type is suitable for long jump. He didn’t practice much and skipped 8 meters. His performance improved obviously in the last week. He even jumped out of 8 meters 33.

He sent this data and video back to the domestic track and field association. The leaders there were very happy. Wang Jun participated in the Olympic long jump competition on behalf of China.

He asked for a moment, only to realize that he turned out to be the only player participating in the long jump.

Generally speaking, the IAAF announced the entry standards for the current year before the Olympic Games were held. Individual entry standards are divided into A and B standards with different levels.

Within a specified period of time, the best results of at least three people in a single country or region in a single event reach the A standard, the team can send three full people to participate in the Olympic Games; if only the athletes of the team can reach the B standard, only There can be one player participating in the competition.

The Chinese long jumper only reached the B mark within the stipulated time, so only one player can be sent to participate in the Olympic competition.

Originally this quota was given to 87-year-old Su Xiongfeng, who won a silver medal with a score of 8 meters 05 at the Guangzhou Asian Games, which is currently the most jumpable among domestic track and field players.

His height is only 183cm, and his explosiveness and jumping power can't be compared with Wang Jun. His results can easily be surpassed by Wang Jun.

Since Su Xiongfeng went to the Olympics to join in the excitement and tourism, the only quota was given to Wang Jun, neither the parties nor the local sports bureau could raise objections.

You can't just let this unknown player show up, and not let the stronger players participate?

If Wang Jun can really jump out 8 meters 33, it is possible to win medals.

Even if it is to join in the fun and make a show, the country hopes that Wang Jun will go. In this way, the ratings are guaranteed, and advertising costs are earned, and the audience will definitely pay attention to this project.

Wang Jun didn't know the competition process, and he didn't know the qualifier. He became a seed player. This is not the first case of his kind. Cross-border participation in long jump competitions is a long-standing tradition in the arena.

For example, American player Marquez Godwin, who won the men’s long jump championship in the 2008 World Youth Championship, will also participate in the London Olympics this time, and is very strong.

His long jump is a side job. His main business is playing football. On the track and field, he can't find a stronger person than him.

In the NFL Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the United States, Godwin is just an "additional receiver", not relying on explosive eating, if he finds a top running back, he can definitely jump.

Karl Lewis not only won 100 meters, but also won the long jump championship.

Therefore, Wang Jun participated in the long jump competition, and only a few words were mentioned in the news. No one was surprised. Many top athletes have the ability to participate in long jumps and impact champions, but they are not interested.

The world record for long jump is terrifying, 8.95 meters. The owner of this record is the American athlete Mike Powell, born in 1963, which was created in the 1991 World Championships.

When I first saw this record, Wang Jun was so weak that he didn't want to participate. Was he just weak at 8 meters?

Later, when he asked him, he realized that last year's World Championship champion, American player Dwight Phillips only jumped 8 meters 4 and he felt that he could compete.

At present, his best score is 8 meters 33, UU reading www.uukanshu.com may be in the brave state of London, he can also jump 8 meters 4.

After all, he practiced long jumps shortly, not as good as those professional athletes in rhythm, and had room to improve before the Olympics.

He currently has a bounce of 82.4. He is the top player in the NBA, and he is absolutely good in the track and field.

In terms of long jumps, big men have an advantage. Powell is 190CM tall and Lewis is 191CM tall.

There is also good news for Wang Jun. In mid-June, Phillips, the champion of the four-time world championship long jump, announced that he had missed the London Olympics due to injury.

At the age of 34, Phillips has dominated the men’s long jump for nearly a decade. He won the 2004 Athens Olympics and won the World Championship four times.

Phillips had an Achilles tendon injury and suffered a car accident in April. He has not been training normally since then. Wang Jun felt that this was a good opportunity to shock the world once again.
