Zhao Yu, a good-for-nothing old-timer, is reborn in a parallel world as Ge Lin, a rookie prodigy competing in the Great Xia Empire Basketball League.
No System, no golden finger! A dad from the start!
Driven by an intense desire to win and armed with the original body’s incredible athleticism, he keeps pushing himself and proving his doubters wrong. While hustling to make money, he also leads his team to two miraculous winning streaks on the court. He knocks off the all-conquering Warriors, pulls off an eighth-seed upset against the Thunder, Rockets, and Trail Blazers, gets revenge on the Mavericks, sweeps the Timberwolves led by Ant in the Western Conference Finals, then wins the championship after a seven-game battle with the Eastern Conference champion Celtics, living up to everyone’s hopes that he’d be “Jordan above the waist and Kobe below.”
This story is dedicated to the Rockets’ incredible winning streak in March, and I hope that old-timers like Harden, still fighting hard for their dreams, achieve success.
