There are also some unwritten rules for team bosses to pay fines to their younger brothers.

Either I'm in financial difficulty, or I think I'm doing the right thing.

Jiang Dalin's financial situation is definitely not difficult, and what Michael Jordan wants to express is obvious.

You guys came here in the 90s, who is more foxy than who?

Originally, Michael Jordan did not want to get involved in these matters, so other than stating his position, he did not speak out again.

But with Popovich’s aggrieved look on his face, who is this for?

If you are shameless, then I won’t give you any face!

I think Jiang Dalin did the right thing, what can you do?

The Wizards ended all their pre-Christmas games with a win.

This year's "Christmas Game" was the 76ers playing the Lakers, which had nothing to do with the Wizards. Therefore, after playing the Spurs, Scott called all the players for a brief talk that night and announced the start of the holiday.

Until the end of December 26, all members of the Wizards got 4 days of rest.

This is a good buffer period for all members of the Wizards team.

After all, this team has three rookies, especially two in the starting lineup, plus the veteran Michael Jordan...this four-day holiday comes at the right time.

Jiang Dalin may be able to rest for a longer period of time. He will not be able to play in the three games after Christmas.

He won't be able to come back until January next year.

It was a total of 9 days inside and outside. Although he had to follow the team for the next 6 days, he obviously had a lot of extra time since he didn't have to worry about playing games.

Taking advantage of this period of time, Jiang Dalin quickly made an appointment with Lilith. Lilith was alone in New York. The big shot would definitely spend Christmas with his family, so she simply focused on her work.

"The list of people to be invited has been approved, and it's all here. Take a look..."

The progress of Lilith's preparations was not slow. In less than half a month, not only did she make an appointment with the Kardashian family for the filming, but the list of proposed invitees was also reviewed and approved. Of course, such a fast pace must have been promoted by that big shot.

Jiang Dalin didn't read the list. He didn't plan to worry about these things anymore. He left them all to Lilith, but he repeated one point to her: "The more outrageous the script, the better! You can consult Jin's mother at the appropriate time to see what she has."

Good idea…”

Lilith didn't mind Jiang Dalin being the hands-off shopkeeper. She actually hoped that Jiang Dalin would not appear at the filming scene, otherwise her authority would be easily challenged by others in the future.

As soon as I finalized the matter and returned home, Kim Kardashian called me and thanked me again.

Jiang Dalin didn't say much to her, but he still sighed to himself: "This is probably her last period of innocence..."

Although Jiang Dalin didn't look at the proposed invitation list at the time, he still took a glance at it. Based on the lineup, he was certain that "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" would become popular faster than it originally was.

The current lineup of this variety show is simply not comparable to the original "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

Especially, there are very few variety shows nowadays...

After it became popular, there was no need for Jiang Dalin to deliberately arrange anything. The circle she came into contact with would naturally change. After seeing so many people, who could not become colorful?

Of course, Jiang Dalin definitely hopes that she will become popular, not only to make money for him, but also to be considered a complete success of his "development of young gold" plan...

After finishing this work, Jiang Dalin didn't know what to do.

On the way back, the streets and alleys had been decorated, giving it a Christmas atmosphere. Compared with the streets, his home was much deserted.

But he was the only one, and if it was Chinese New Year, he would go out of his way to cook dumplings. It was a foreign festival, so there was no need to buy some Christmas-related decorations and put them in the house.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Dalin finally drove to the arena.

Since you don’t know what to do, practice more!

Whether it's his ball handling or mid-range shooting, it's far from the time to relax.

In the quiet arena, the sound of balls and sneakers scraping against the floor was particularly obvious. After practicing for about an hour and a half, Jiang Dalin, who was sweating all over, sat down to rest when Happy called him.

"Darling, the editor-in-chief of "American Auto Weekly" just called me and said that he would like to invite you to shoot a themed cover..."

Jiang Dalin only asked: "How much?"

"$70,000."

"catch!"

This can barely be regarded as "mosquito meat", but "mosquito meat" is also "meat". Jiang Dalin knows how to accumulate a little and make a lot, and accumulate over time.

Happy later sent him another text message, informing him of the filming time, which was still early and would be filmed after Christmas. He also told him an unexpected news: Paris Hilton is your partner for this co-production!

oh?

Jiang Dalin couldn't help but think of the practice in the nanny car that day.

I didn’t expect that!

He actually has a work relationship with her.

But think about it, with her current reputation in the modeling industry, it is not surprising to find her. On the contrary, Jiang Dalin himself is a little surprised that a car magazine actually came to him to shoot a cover...

Maybe it’s because I’ve been too ostentatious driving a Ferrari recently!

Putting down his cell phone, Jiang Dalin continued to practice until about 9 o'clock in the evening before he left the gym. Just as he got home, the call came again. Jiang Dalin found that he was very busy every day, and the calls came one after another.

Pick it up and take a look.

Ouch!

Paris Hilton…

Jiang Dalin answered: "Hello, big star, long time no see, what's the matter?"

Hilton's tone was not very happy: "You should already know that you want to shoot the magazine cover with me, right?"

"Well, I just heard..."

"Then why didn't you call me?" This time there was a bit of dissatisfaction and accountability in his tone. It was as if he was saying... He actually asked me to take the initiative!

Forehead……

Jiang Dalin almost didn't think about it and opened his mouth: "That's right, I planned to call you at first, but after thinking about it, I wanted to give you a surprise. When the time comes, you can go to the shooting site and take a look, eh? It's actually

He! He should be very happy..."

"Bah!" Hilton spat lightly, and his tone was a bit more lively, "I knew it was you a long time ago. I told the editor that I wanted to cooperate with you..."

"ah?"

It turns out it has nothing to do with him driving a Ferrari recently?

Hilton: "Otherwise, why do you think that a car magazine suddenly asked you to shoot a cover... Oh, no, I really can't underestimate you. You just made a variety show with Lilith without saying a word, and you even made money.

Pushed to become the protagonist..."

Jiang Dalin could hear the smell of jealousy through the microphone. He giggled twice and said nothing. Anything he said at this time was just quibbles, so it was better not to say anything.

"Now, I'll give you a chance. I'm at the Washington Airport now. I have 40 minutes to go back to New York. If you can get to the airport before then, I will reluctantly agree to have a meal with you!"

"ok!"

Jiang Dalin hung up the phone immediately. Even for the sake of the 70,000 US dollars, he had to go there.

Hilton must have just finished work, with a tired look on her face, but even so, when she saw Jiang Dalin appear, her eyes had a bit of the lightness that a young girl should have.

She also deliberately raised her hand and glanced at the watch on her hand: "31 minutes, it's really not over time. Okay, then I will reluctantly go to have a meal with you."

Jiang Dalin smiled, didn't say anything more, and took the initiative to take the bag from her hand.

The familiar LV logo is studded with an unknown number of diamonds, and it looks like a customized model. If he were not the future heir to the Hilton Hotel Group, this bag would be more expensive than the house he lives in now...

"Is there anything you want to eat?"

Jiang Dalin asked first when he got in the car.

Hilton: "Whatever, you decide!"

"OK!"

Jiang Dalin didn't hesitate and took her to a steak restaurant near his home. It wasn't a high-end restaurant, but the taste was still good and the price/performance ratio was very good.

There is no need to go to a high-end hotel. With Hilton's background, he must have eaten and seen more than him. There is no need to spend a lot of money in front of her.

Hilton really "do as the Romans do" and ate happily. She did not dislike the quality of the beef itself. However, she disliked Jiang Dalin's hair: "Do you like afros so much?"

"No, I'm planning to change my hairstyle recently..."

According to the latest height measurement a few days ago, his height has reached 207.67cm, almost 208cm. This is already the standard height for the fourth position in the league.

Now that the height disadvantage is gone, there is no need for Jiang Dalin to have an afro.

"But I haven't made up my mind yet on what hairstyle to change."

"It's easy, just leave it to me!"

Hilton said that he made a phone call and found one of the most famous Tony teachers in Washington.

Jiang Dalin hoped to make him more gangster, which would be more in line with his style of play. Hilton discussed with the Tony teacher for a long time and finally decided: dreadlocks!

"But I won't give you an exaggerated braid. It will be about the length of your hair now, and it won't be too thin. It will be easy to take care of, and it won't be uncomfortable if you wash it once a week..."

Jiang Dalin agreed.

Teacher Tony was busy for about an hour, and "Afro" Jiang Dalin officially became history, replaced by "Dreadlock Boy" Jiang Dalin.

Hilton was very satisfied with the final result: "Not bad, not bad, it looks very manly!"

Jiang Dalin himself was quite satisfied. However, after braiding the dreadlocks, he suddenly felt his scalp feel cold.

If you exercise, you won't be sweating profusely, right?

This question was answered that night when Jiang Dalin took Hilton home to practice football. No matter whether it was an afro or dreadlocks, whether it was sweating profusely or not, it was indeed much cooler and no longer like before.

That way, the heat from his scalp couldn't escape, and several times he felt like he was going to get prickly heat.

"Afro": Why haven't I seen you dislike me so much before?

This night was quite long, probably four or five days. When Jiang Dalin woke up in the morning, he felt refreshed. Seeing that Hilton was still sleeping, he called Happy and asked someone to bring some breakfast.

While he was enjoying his meal, a disheveled Hilton poked his head out of the bedroom: "You didn't even call me to eat?"

"Don't I feel sorry for you when I see you are still sleeping? You were so tired last night..."

Hilton heard what Jiang Dalin meant, spat hard, walked to Jiang Dalin and sat down, tilted her head and looked at Jiang Dalin, Jiang Dalin stuffed the bacon he was about to stuff into her mouth.

Hilton opened his mouth as obediently as last night.

"Eh? Darling, you said yesterday that I was the first woman you brought home..."

"Well, what's wrong?"

"Is it true? Jin has never come back with you?"

There was a light flashing in Hilton's eyes.

Jiang Dalin was speechless: "Why do you always care about her?"

"I……"

Can you not care?

Obviously I met you together with my mother.

As a result, you had a heated fight with her and got her such good resources...

Hilton doesn't care about the resources. She is the capital herself. She can do it by herself if she doesn't have the resources. She doesn't covet any resources at all.

Grain

What she cares more about is... why in Jiang Dalin's eyes, that "girl carrying a bag" is more attractive than her!

"Paris, believe it or not, you are the first woman I take home."

Jiang Dalin suddenly looked serious, making Hilton slightly startled.

In fact, Hilton's love history is quite rich, and there are more than a dozen that have been made public, not to mention the ones that have not been made public.

But that is also later...

Now, she has not yet met the man who posted a videotape on the Internet and embarrassed her for more than ten years.

Two years later, it is still possible to record the activities in bed. What experience can Hilton have at this time?

At most, you know what you want, and you can get it...

"Then why don't you try and have an open relationship with me?"

Jiang Dalin almost choked on the food in his mouth. He quickly drank the milk in the cup to cover up his panic, but he still couldn't help but said to Hilton: "Huh?"

"What, you don't want to?" Hilton pouted.

"How is it possible? I... of course would like to!"

A smile appeared on Jiang Dalin's face again, and after a while, he had already figured it out in his mind.

He could feel that Hilton was more just curious and dissatisfied. He and Kim Kardashian were having a hot relationship. At most, she was only slightly interested in him, but not for love. They probably broke up in a few months. Originally, she

Each subsequent public relationship lasted very short, basically less than a year.

Moreover, if he openly falls in love with Hilton, it will help to increase his popularity. In addition, he may also come into contact with some people who are not in contact with him in his current circle. This is a good thing...

"That's what you said!" Hilton still felt that Jiang Dalin thought she was joking, "Then tonight, you will go to New York with me to attend a Christmas party."

"Let me tell you first, there are a lot of media!"

"If you want to regret it, it's still too late!"

Jiang Dalin looked at Hilton with a smile that said, "Come here, no one is afraid of you." He didn't say anything, just smiled and continued eating breakfast.

When Hilton saw this, he called someone directly, then took Jiang Dalin to the airport.

When they set off, it was around 9:30 in the morning. Ten hours later, Hilton appeared at the party wearing a luxurious white evening dress and holding Jiang Dalin, who was wearing a designer suit.

Both the media at the scene and the invitees to the party all had surprise in their eyes.

Miss Hilton...

Where did this come from?

And this Jiang Dalin, isn’t he Kim Kardashian’s rumored boyfriend?

Is it possible...

The media instantly imagined a scene in which the "Era Sisters" fought over a man in private!

Don’t worry about the headlines of tomorrow’s entertainment news!

Flash lights flashed in various ways. Hilton stood in front of the media and glanced sideways at the tall Jiang Dalin beside him, with a triumphant and show-off smile on his face.

At the subsequent party, Jiang Dalin came into contact with many familiar names as he expected.

"Well, little... Jiang, why are you here?"

At the party, Jiang Dalin accidentally met an acquaintance...Michael Jordan. Dressed in formal attire, he was full of the philistine atmosphere of a businessman.

As the person in charge of Nike subsidiary AJ, he is also on the invitation list for this party.

Jordan really didn't expect to see Jiang Dalin at such a dance. Although the essence was similar and full of obscene things, on the surface, this was a party for the American upper class.

"And you..."

Michael Jordan, who was used to seeing Jiang Dalin's afro, suddenly saw Jiang Dalin with "dreadlocks" and was really a little uncomfortable.

Before Jiang Dalin could say anything, Hilton jumped out from the side, tightly hooked Jiang Dalin's arm, and greeted Jordan: "Thanks to you, Uncle Michael..."

No need to say anything anymore, Jordan also understood, patted Jiang Dalin on the shoulder, and showed a "you can do it" smile.

The day after the party ended, the names of Hilton and Jiang Dalin unsurprisingly dominated the headlines in various entertainment sectors.

Hilton, who only officially entered the entertainment industry in 2000, has attracted much attention from the beginning because she was born into a wealthy family and her condition is really good. And as the outside world expected, she became famous all over the United States in one year.

, has become the most popular newcomer in the entertainment industry. In terms of resources, even some long-established first-line stars cannot compare with her. She has been endorsed by various fashion magazines and famous brand luxury goods.

But who would have thought that Hilton would actually be in love at this time, and even choose to announce the relationship directly...

No one expected that Jiang Dalin would appear in the media headlines in this way and cause such a big fuss the day after the Wizards did not play.

What I didn't even expect was that Paris Hilton, the eldest daughter of the Hilton Group, would be the first boyfriend she publicly acknowledged in front of the media.

Barkley: "It seems that our Darlings are really good, both on and off the court..." There was a bit of envy in the complaint.

But it’s normal. There are so many men in the United States, who wouldn’t envy them?

As for Hilton, who announced her relationship... she is not feeling well at the moment. The bombardment of phone calls from last night has not stopped until now. She has to repeat her encounter with Jiang Dalin over and over again, which almost makes her nervous.

Crazy.

"At least until tomorrow, I don't want to touch my phone again!"

Fortunately, everything that needed to be explained was finished. Hilton turned his eyes to Jiang Dalin. From the beginning, this guy had been looking out the window.

"What are you looking at?"

Hilton came over and looked out the window with Jiang Dalin, but saw nothing.

Jiang Dalin sighed with emotion. The hotel the two of them were in now was a chain hotel of the Hilton Group. The luxury presidential suite cost more than five figures a night, but now Jiang Dalin was having sex for free...

He really didn't expect...

A person with such a good appetite like me can actually eat soft rice!

At this moment, Kim Kardashian, who was discussing the follow-up shooting with her family and Lilith, looked at her mobile phone expressionlessly, with anticipation in her eyes from time to time.

It seems that Lilith, who occasionally pops up a familiar celebrity name, is not as attractive as her mobile phone.

The resource that had excited her for so long had lost her interest after seeing the news this morning.

Khloe Kardashian next to her was very excited when she heard this. She couldn't hide her excitement when she thought that she would soon be doing a variety show with so many big stars. At this moment, she felt like she was really a famous lady.

As a result, he turned around and saw his sister picking up the phone and taking a look at it again.

"Jin, what's wrong?" she asked in a low voice.

Kim Kardashian quickly forced out a smile: "No, it's okay, maybe I didn't get a good rest last night..."

Kohler nodded his fat cat-like face, said nothing more, and looked at Lilith again, with an excited smile blooming again on his face.

"Director Jiang's announcement of his relationship comes at the right time. Our variety show will also attract attention because of his relationship with Miss Hilton..."

Kriskinna's words made Kim Kardashian, who had always been expressionless, look up at her mother, and then at Lilith opposite, with a hint of irritation in her eyes unconsciously.

When she heard that this variety show would become more popular because of Jiang Dalin, she felt a chest tightness for no reason. She said hello, ran out in a hurry, stood in front of the toilet, and retched for a long time...

Kim Kardashian, who has been yearning for the entertainment industry since she was fifteen or sixteen years old, hoping that she could become a socialite and enjoy the spotlight, looked at herself in the mirror, and thought... if she could do it all over again, in that parking lot, she might

There will be different answers.

…

On the afternoon of December 25, the "Christmas War" arrived as scheduled, which also brought NBA fans' attention back to the game from Jiang Dalin's love affair.

The Philadelphia 76ers challenge the Los Angeles Lakers away from home.

Finals 2.0 this June!

Countless Iverson fans have been waiting for this day with great excitement from the moment the new season schedule came out.

They hope that Allen Iverson, who failed to pull off a big upset in the finals, can lead the Philadelphia 76ers to defeat the Lakers this time, even if it is just on the stage of the "Christmas War"...

For most fans in the league, this "Christmas dinner" is indeed delicious. In addition to being a sequel to the finals in June this year, it is also a battle between the two most popular guards at the moment, Kobe Bryant and Allen Iverson.

Showdown!

Just thinking about their offensive and defensive exchanges is enough to make people excited and want to shout.

The only flaw is that Shaquille O'Neal missed the game due to injury. Of course, from another perspective, this game became a more pure Allen Iverson vs. Kobe Bryant!

Jiang Dalin, who returned to Washington, watched the game at home on time. Unfortunately, this "Christmas dinner" was not as exciting as expected. Allen Iverson performed well, scoring 31 points in the game.

With the data of points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, Kobe's performance was average. He only scored 12 points on 6 of 19 shots. It can almost be said that Allen Iverson was unilaterally suppressing Kobe in the entire game.

This is not the spark that the media expected before the game between the men who currently rank first and fourth in the league in scoring average...

Jiang Dalin sighed repeatedly: "I have to admit that Allen Iverson, who has been at his absolute peak in the past two years, is really too strong!"

The Lakers' defense is not weak, but it's still like paper in front of him.

Kobe Bryant, the league's top defensive player with the best defense, could not limit his performance at all.

This seems to explain why when some media later said that Irving is now stronger than Allen Iverson, Kobe scoffed at this: You have no idea how powerful Allen Iverson was at that time!

It's a pity that although Allen Iverson performed well, the final result of this game was the same as in June. The final winner was Kobe and the Lakers...

The scene of Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant hugging after the game was also frozen in the media.

It's quite interesting if you look at this photo of them from a later perspective.

Allen Iverson should be one of the players who most desires a championship at this time, and Kobe is the player who most desires the boss position at this time, not even one of them...

After the "Christmas War", the NBA regular season resumed after a two- or three-day break, and with it came the voting for the Eastern and Western starters during the All-Star Weekend...

At this time, there is no quota limit for each team.

Jiang Dalin is also on the list.

David Stern also specially opened China’s official voting channel.

This is for fear that Chinese fans will not have a sense of participation!

On the afternoon when the official voting channel opened, Hilton canvassed votes in front of the media on behalf of her new boyfriend, whom she had just revealed for two days.

With her influence, coupled with Wizards fans and fans in China, Jiang Dalin has a vague feeling that he is very likely to become the "vote king" of the NBA All-Star Weekend in his rookie season...

This is not without warning!

With the opening of the All-Star starting voting channel, there has been more discussion about the All-Star weekend, especially the slam dunk contest. Because Jiang Dalin entered the league, he is now even more anticipated by fans throughout the league.

Compared to 2000, the 2001 slam dunk contest was too hip-reaching.

Fans desperately need someone to save the All-Star Dunk Contest!

Although it is difficult to reach the level of 2000. - The classic part of the 2000 Slam Dunk Contest is not just Vince Carter, but the process of Vince Carter overpowering all the flowers in bloom!

This is why even though the later battle between LaVine and Gordon was so exciting, it still lagged behind 2000 in the rankings of American media.

In 2000, it was not one person who was stronger, but all the contestants, especially Vince Carter, who was almost considered the "first dunker in history"!

In addition to Vince Carter, there are at least two people with dunking performance who can win the "Dunk King" in other years...

Therefore, it is really difficult to replicate the grand occasion of 2000.

The fans don't have that high expectations, they just hope that there will be a more capable contestant.

As for the 2002 "Slam Dunk Contest", everyone's expectations are undoubtedly the "Chinese Beast" Jiang Dalin who has dunked his opponents in various actual combats before!

Jiang Dalin believes that as long as he announces his participation in the "Slam Dunk Contest", fans across the United States will definitely actively and spontaneously vote for him!

However, he has to save this " trump card " until the first or second round of voting is over to see what the results are.

As soon as the media discussed this topic, he announced his participation, which was a little too anxious.

As a player, you must learn to whet the appetite of fans. Just like Lao Zhan, there is a topic about the slam dunk contest every year. The reason is that he is not in a hurry to deny all possibilities...
