November 14th, 2007.
The NBA regular season is in full swing, and in Cleveland, the Cavaliers' locker room, everyone's expression is solemn, watching Big Z who was forced to take a break due to injury.
In the 1.0 era of the Cavaliers, Big Z was definitely the backbone of the team. Without him, James would not have been able to reach the NBA Finals smoothly last season!
The management of the Cavaliers attaches great importance to the injury of Big Z and looks forward to his speedy recovery and comeback, helping James to compete in the NBA Finals again in the new season.
Damn it, Big Z is injured. Next, we need to find someone to replace him
Larry Hughes spoke up, he was traded from the Wizards to the Cavaliers.
During his time with the Wizards, Ramses had outstanding personal abilities and could easily score an average of 20 points per game.
At this moment, the team's leading star LeBron James looked around at all the players in the locker room.
Suddenly, James saw a familiar figure.
A tall man from an Eastern country caught his eye. His name was Tang Long, who was 215 cm tall, weighed 105 kg, and had arms that stretched up to 228 cm.
In terms of jumping and speed, there is room for improvement, but it is not very outstanding. The bench press, stationary height measurement, and run-up height measurement are all average.
That is to say, this player from the ancient Dragon Kingdom has strong static talent, while dynamic talent is commonplace.
After all, it is an undeniable fact that Asians are not as physically outstanding as black people.
For example, the Eastern giant Yao Ming, who has been playing in the NBA for many years, is widely recognized for his outstanding static talent, while his dynamic talent can only be described as average.
The speed is not fast, the bounce is not high, and the only advantage is that he is tall, at 229 cm, which is the official height. It is reported that Yao Ming's actual height is even higher than the 229 cm figure.
At this moment.
Hey guys, I don't think we should make things too difficult for that guy from Big Z. He's injured, so let him rest. I think Tang can replace Big Z in the starting lineup and give him a chance to perform
Tang Long, like Da Z, focuses on the center position.
Due to outstanding performance at the 2006 World Championships, he was discovered by NBA scouts and later moved to Citigroup to become a bench player for the Cavaliers.
On weekdays, Da Z is present, and Tang Long does not have the opportunity to perform. Only during garbage time will coach Mike Brown allow Tang Long to play.
The team's status is very pitiful, equivalent to a water dispenser administrator.
As for why James supported Tang Long, it was because during a team training game, Tang Long assisted in defending James, which caused him a lot of headaches.
Later, James learned that this young man from the Dragon Kingdom may have a weakness in ball handling and offense, but in contrast, Tang Long's close defense won James' recognition.
This is also because Big Z is injured and unable to play. James publicly supports Tang Long and can try to get him to play in the starting lineup.
Everyone heard James' words and did not refute them.
James is the team leader, and his position on the team is more impressive than that of head coach Mike Brown. His words are generally not opposed by anyone.
Coach Brown, how do you view this matter
James kicked the ball to Mike Brown, who thought for a moment and agreed to James' proposal. Next, in the game against the Wizards, Tang Long will give it a try.
Okay, since everyone has no objections, let's start tonight's game. Big Z, take good care of yourself and we'll win against the Wizards tonight
James finished speaking and led the team leaders into the MIC Center arena.
This stadium was built in 1997, the same year that the Huasheng Shield Bullets team was renamed the Huasheng Shield Wizards.
The stadium can accommodate over 20000 spectators. Tonight, the Cavaliers will be away, while the Washington Wizards will be at home.
Until entering the MIC center arena, Tang Long finally woke up from his confusion.
His first thought was, who am I? Where am i?
Am I not practicing on the field with my friends?
Why did the art style suddenly change? This is an NBA court?
Are you sure it's not an NBA2k game?
Tang Long pinched himself hard twice, feeling pain and confirming that it was not a dream, but a reality.
Does he seem to have traveled through time?
In 2022, travel back to 2007.
Looking at the jersey style of James and others, it is certain that this is the Cavaliers from the 1.0 era.
So, now that I'm back in 2007, I'm still a member of the Cavaliers.
The name of its predecessor is the same as its own, also known as Tang Long.
Tang Long's face was instantly shocked that something like time travel really happened to him.
Feeling the majestic body of his predecessor, Tang Long couldn't help but smile. With his height, arm span, and physique, he was truly a good basketball player!
Capable of playing as a center forward without any pressure at all.
Time travel has really happened, I just don't know if there is a system
After Tang Long finished muttering, electronic synthesized sounds suddenly came to his mind.
He, who often watches movies and reads novels, is too familiar with what this electronic synthesized sound represents.
The system has arrived!
Time travel is not deceiving me, there is really a system.
Congratulations to the host for obtaining a super fusion system with 100% system binding... Please wait for the next instruction
Tang Long is inexplicably excited, super fusion system?
what is it?
The next second, the electronic synthesized sound sounded again.
Congratulations to the host for receiving the newbie gift package. The gift package has been included in the system package. Please check your inbox carefully
Wow, come on as soon as you say, there's no ambiguity at all!
Tang Long opened the system package with excitement and overflowing emotions, and indeed there was a red gift package inside.
Click to open it with your mind, and a red light flashes before your eyes. The gift package disappears and becomes a sparkling dimensional card instead.
Congratulations to the host for winning the fusion character card. The fusion template is Ziyuan Dun. May I ask if the host will use it immediately
What? Ziyuan Dun's fusion character card
Tang Long became even more excited. As someone familiar with the black basketball team, he knew exactly what dimension level player Ziyuan Dun was.
It can be said that this guy Ziyuan Dun, in the black basket, is synonymous with abnormality!
His strongest characteristic is not his possession of the ball to attack, but his unbeatable defense!
Of course, to a certain extent, Ziyuan Dun's attack is also very sharp.
However, compared to his indestructible defensive iron gate, his attack has slightly faded.
Who can withstand the man who claims to go from first defense to fifth defense, from three-point defense to the paint area inside?
Even the most scoring superstar in the current league, facing the perverted Ziyuan Dun, cannot recklessly cut points on Tang Longtou.
Steady! This time it's really steady. Even Ziyuan Dun has come to compete in the NBA league. Isn't it easy to win
Tang Long immediately used Ziyuan Dun's fusion card.
On the card, there is a lifelike carving of Ziyuan Dun, with a seductive purple hair, sharp eyes, and holding a basketball in his hand, presenting a proud and arrogant posture!
Wow!
A purple light flashed, and Ziyuan Dun's fusion card merged with Tang Long himself.
Congratulations to the host for successfully using the Ziyuan Dun Fusion Character Card. Please check your own attribute values and look forward to your strong dominance on the NBA court
The system prompt sound fell, and Tang Long couldn't wait to open his property panel to check it out.
