The regular season in the league lasts for three and a half months, from mid-November to February.

Thirty-one games were played in three and a half months, and the players actually had plenty of training time.

However, as the performance of Jiang Dongbing and the Pittsburgh Five attracted the attention of the United States, Jiang Dongbing and the Five Tigers' "trouble" also followed.

"What? ESPN wants us to shoot a magazine cover?" Jiang Dongbing sat opposite Pirlo and asked with a shocked look on his face.

Pirlo nodded with a smile. He was extremely satisfied with the Panthers this season. He probably never dreamed that the Panthers led by Jiang Dongbing would achieve such a record.

When Jiang Dongbing was originally introduced, he did it purely for Jackson and David, and he also knew very well that even with Jackson and David, the Panthers' combat power was roughly the same as that of the Jayhawks, and they would never be able to compete with the North

A team of this caliber.

But now it seems that Pirlo feels that he completely underestimated Jiang Dongbing's ability.

"That's right, take care of those boys and dress them up so that we don't embarrass Pittsburgh." Pirlo said with a smile.

Jiang Dongbing is actually not willing to engage in these vain things. After all, such off-field matters can easily distract players. Even if they are not distracted, at least half a day of training time will be wasted.

"Everyone prepare a decent suit. Tomorrow afternoon we will shoot a magazine cover for ESPN." Jiang Dongbing informed the Pittsburgh Five about the news.

The other four people all looked excited. It was definitely a blessing to be on the cover of a super media like ESPN.

The only thing that looked awkward was David. Jiang Dongbing guessed that it might be because of the suit. David had never worn a suit before when he was at Butler Community College.

For someone as tall as David, there is no suit on the market that fits him, so he must have it custom-made, and the price of this custom-made suit is quite outrageous.

Before Jiang Dongbing came to Pittsburgh to report, he also wanted to go there and get a custom-made suit. But when he went there, he was shocked by the price. Very ordinary fabrics cost thousands of dollars, and high-end ones cost several thousand dollars.

In the end, Jiang Dongbing ran away in despair. He really couldn't bear to spend so much money on a suit. It was really a waste.

With his height, he can buy a ready-made suit in the market, but there is no need to have it custom-made.

The same cannot be said for David. With his terrifying height and somewhat difficult family environment, he may not have a suit at all.

After the team disbanded, Jiang Dongbing was silent for a moment, and then directly called David over.

"David, come with me. You have been following me for more than a year, and I haven't given you any decent gift yet."

"As a coach this time, I have to give you a decent gift." After Jiang Dongbing said this, he grabbed David's arm and walked towards the outside of the training ground.

He was afraid that David would not agree, so he would simply ask an overlord to force the bow on him.

David wanted to refuse, but after looking at Jiang Dongbing's small body, he was afraid that Jiang Dongbing would be hurt if he tried to resist, so he let Jiang Dongbing pull him.

The two came to the school gate and took a taxi.

"David Taillon? Coach Jiang? God, it's really you." The taxi driver's face was full of surprise. He didn't expect to attract these two Pittsburgh stars.

"Take us to the best tailor-made suit shop in the city, thank you." Jiang Dongbing said directly to the driver.

How could David still not see Jiang Dongbing's intention? He pulled Jiang Dongbing at a loss, "Coach, no."

Jiang Dongbing's face immediately showed a look of dissatisfaction, "Why don't you want it? How dare you say you don't want the thing I gave you?"

"You are our starting center for the Pittsburgh Panthers. You are responsible for suppressing our inside line. If you want to be featured in a national magazine like ESPN, how can you do it without a decent suit?"

"Don't worry, the coach is not as poor as you think. The money for a suit is only enough for the coach to have a casual meal."

Jiang Dongbing's words were definitely bragging. He had never been to a restaurant since he time traveled, and most of his time was spent in the school cafeteria.

It's not that Jiang Dongbing doesn't have money to eat out, after all, the two hundred thousand dollars given by Pittsburgh is already a huge sum of money, but Jiang Dongbing still wants to spend the money in a more meaningful place.

For example, it is very meaningful to customize a decent outfit for David now.

David became more and more panicked. He felt that he owed Jiang Dongbing a lot and didn't want to trouble Jiang Dongbing anymore.

He is autistic, but he is not a fool. He just doesn't know how to express his inner thoughts sometimes.

He knows better than anyone that he is where he is today because Jiang Dongbing helped him. If it weren't for Jiang Dongbing, he might just be a big fool in the eyes of others.

…

After a while, the taxi arrived, and Jiang Dongbing took David out of the car.

After walking into the store, someone immediately came to greet him. David's height was too eye-catching.

"Gentlemen, do you want to make a custom-made suit?" A middle-aged man with a British accent greeted Jiang Dongbing and the two warmly.

Jiang Dongbing nodded, "Take out the best fabrics you have here and make a top-grade suit for the handsome young man next to me."

If you say this, you will clearly tell the other person that you are being taken advantage of.

Jiang Dongbing didn't care either. In order to show that he was rich in front of David and not put any psychological burden on David, he went all out to be taken advantage of.

The man with a British accent was probably the shopkeeper. Hearing this, his old face smiled like a chrysanthemum blooming.

"Sir, you have come to the right place."

"I dare say that in the entire city of Pittsburgh, there is absolutely no custom shop that can produce as good a fabric as ours."

"Please wait a moment." The shop owner turned around and went to look for fabrics. Jiang Dongbing patted David, who was embarrassed next to him, and motioned for him to calm down.

After a while, the shopkeeper came out with a piece of fabric. Looking at his cautious expression, you knew that this thing was definitely not cheap.

"British Shijiabao fabric, the king of fabrics, the best fabric money can buy!"

"I dare to swear that no one in the entire city of Pittsburgh can own this kind of fabric except me, an Englishman." The shop owner said with pride on his face.

Jiang Dongbing took a look. The light blue striped fabric looked indeed high-end and classy.

"How much?" Jiang Dongbing asked casually.

"2,000 pounds per yard, this is the price of the fabric. As for the craftsmanship cost, it will be different according to the style chosen by Mr.," the shop owner introduced.

Jiang Dongbing's eyes almost popped out of his head. Are you kidding? 2,000 pounds a yard?!

You must know that one yard is approximately equal to 0.91 meters. If you calculate it this way, the price of one meter of Shijiabao fabric is close to 3,000 US dollars?!

He was about to vomit blood. This thing was really worth its weight in gold. The most important thing was that with David's height, three meters would not be enough, at least four meters!

The fabric cost alone is 12,000 US dollars?! Jiang Dongbing’s eyes were completely opened. Is this the life of rich people?

"Okay, I want this kind of fabric and style. Please help me choose a suitable style and calculate the total cost." Jiang Dongbing's heart was bleeding, but he happily chose this king of fabrics.

David was stunned by the price of this fabric. His mother Robin's monthly salary was only three thousand US dollars, but she could only buy one meter of this fabric?!

"To round up the whole number, the total is fifteen thousand US dollars."

"Because Mr.'s situation is quite special, he needs to pay the full price." The shop owner smiled so hard that the corners of his mouth almost tilted to the back of his head.

Jiang Dongbing nodded. David's height was so special that he should pay the full price.

"How long will it take to make it ready?" Jiang Dongbing asked again.

"In about a week, our speed is among the best in the industry." the shop owner replied.

Jiang Dongbing looked dissatisfied. It would be ESPN's photo shoot time in four days. If it was delivered within a week, wouldn't it be a waste of money?

"Shut your mouth and I'll tell you a number."

"Three days!"

"If it works, I'll sign a check for you right away. If it doesn't work, we'll find another custom shop."
