Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

"So why is it left this year?!"

On the first day of 2011, Time Magazine’s choice made everyone in the world wonder. This is the person of the year. He is the person with the highest influence throughout the year and represents the trend vane of the entire era. You can

Picked a basketball player?!

This is so damn hasty!

Sorry, I didn’t say that I was deliberately swearing, I just hope to better express the mood of people who saw this result on the first day of the new year.

It’s not that Zuo Li has no bright spots. Now Zuo Li is enough to get out of the circle. Not only people who like basketball know him, but he is also very popular with the public. At least if Zuo Li goes to Europe to play a game, there should be no American team.

No. 6 passed to Kobe Bryant's classic scene.

Many people had predicted in early December that this year Zuo Li would be selected into Time Magazine's Top 100 People, and would even be ranked in the top 50, or even the top 15, or even higher. After all, what happened in the basketball circle in 2010

When all the major events are gathered together, one name is basically written on the important places: Zuo Li.

It is normal for athletes to be selected as the top 100 people of the year. After all, unlike the people of the year, the top 100 people have a wider scope, and there are originally "leaders and revolutionaries", "entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs", "scientists and thinkers",

Of course, athletes are included in the five major categories of "Heroes and Idols" and "Artists and Entertainment Professionals".

So if Zuo Li is selected for this list this year, I believe no one will question it. Although looking at the entire NBA, only Steve Nash has been selected for this list in 2006.

Yes, none of Jordan, the four major centers, the four major shooting guards, and the 2003 generation have been selected. There are various reasons. For example, the reason why Joe was not selected is purely because this list only started in 2004. Of course he cannot catch up.

Otherwise, based on his influence and role in promoting basketball in the 1980s and 1990s, he must have a place here.

As for why Nash can do it, but other players who reached their peak after 2000 can't...this thing...who knows.

In short, even if Zuo Li was "just" selected into the top 100 people selected by Time Magazine this year, he has already created a new history. I remember when the top 100 list came out in early December, there were people who complained because Zuo Li was not on the list.

Many people think that Zuo Li, who played a phenomenal season and did many influential things off the court, is worthy of a high ranking.

At that time, there were still people who took the opportunity to ridicule Zuo Li, mocking Zuo Li's so-called influence because of the fans' self-pleasure, mocking Zuo Li for being in the NBA and saying that no one knew him, but the result...

Good guy!

On the first day of the New Year, Heizi was hit so hard his face was swollen.

The person who co-authored Time Magazine didn't look down on Zuo Li, but he held back a big move. He directly skipped the top 100 people and became the more difficult person of the year!

Is this reasonable?!

This is quite reasonable…

Because they probably knew that this decision would cause controversy around the world, Time Magazine thoughtfully attached an explanation of Zuo Li's upbringing and the reasons why he chose Zuo Li as the 2010 Person of the Year.

At this time, Zuo Lizheng looked at the magazine that Ou Mei had just bought from outside with a strange expression...

Yes, O'Mei suddenly regained her energy after learning that Zuo Li became Time Magazine's Person of the Year. Not only did she give Zuo Li a good introduction to what Time Magazine was, but she also ran out to buy the belated magazine.

…

Zuo Li could only say to this that they live in Changdao. Where is the nearest newsstand from here...

"Maybe it's time to subscribe to this magazine..."

Seeing Aomei's excited look, Zuo Li felt that he needed to subscribe to one more newspaper and magazine at home.

But this is not the point. The point is that Zuo Li also wants to know the reason why Time Magazine chose him. After all, he has always felt that he is quite low-key (???).

Zuo Li slowly read the part about him in this issue under Omei's gaze.

After reading it, Zuo Li, who put down the book, could only shake his head and sigh: "Come on, all these things have been exposed after so many years."

Under the detailed introduction of Time Magazine, Zuo Li's journey from childhood to adulthood was almost completely told, including his adoption by Mr. Derek on a snowy night and his inability to use his brain since childhood.

Of course, this is normal. There are so many people in the orphanage. You can't hide this kind of thing even if you want to. Zuo Li doesn't want to hide it either. He was not the only one who was stupid when he was a child and suddenly woke up when he grew up. Anyway, he is normal now and that's it.

It's not like someone dragged him to take slices and study them.

And then, how did Zuo Li embark on the road of basketball, how did he gain a foothold on the street, how did he train with the legendary street ball Goat, how did he give up the street and choose to go to the academy, and how did he lead Stuyvesant and Davis College

Those who counterattacked to win the championship and entered the NBA were also introduced in more detail.

Of course, this is not news. It has long been known to Zuoli fans, and it is also the most talked about topic among many fans.

After being described by Time Magazine, the path to fame of a young basketball player who was unwilling to accept his fate was vividly revealed on the paper.

But if it’s just like this, it’s nothing. Many NBA stars have similar childhoods, and some are no worse than Zuo Li. For example, Jordan, if you sum up his experiences from childhood to adulthood, you will know

Discovery is equally wonderful.

The achievement of entering the NBA is worthy of praise. After all, leading the New York Knicks to where they are today is considered by many to be really strong. With this alone, there is no problem in being included in the top 100 figures of the year.

(New York Knicks: "..." First of all, I didn't mess with any of you...)

However, this is still not the point. The real point is Zuo Li's achievements in other fields during this basketball experience.

For example, the outside world first learned that as early as 2005, when Apple was at its lowest point, Zuo Li bought Apple's shares and continued to increase his stake in the following years. He still holds 1% of Apple's shares.

shares.

Don't underestimate this 1%. This number has expanded more than ten times compared with that of the past. Now Zuo Li can rely on this share to live a life of food and drink, and live a lifetime of prosperity and wealth.

Of course, if this can be said to be shitty luck, then Zuo Li's next operation can be said to fully demonstrate his business talent.

For example, how he founded the ins company, how he made ins big in a year and a half, and how he signed a contract with and1 and brought this old sneaker company back to life in a year.

Oh, they also discovered that Zuo Li is already a shareholder of and1, and also owns an independent sneaker company. They even dug out the process of how boost is applied to sneakers...

By the way, Time Magazine did not forget to mention the player agency founded by Zuo Li, and briefly introduced his entertainment studio and cooperation with Star Entertainment, as well as filming movies and even signing rappers.
