"Birdman" Anderson: He earned $23 million in his career, but now he has gained weight and never leaves his girlfriend.

Basketball

The extremely flamboyant cockscomb hairstyle is paired with a horrible tattoo all over the body. I believe that many fans will be biased against this "problem boy" after seeing "Birdman" Anderson for the first time, but after watching Anderson's game, I believe you will definitely fall in love with this guy who looks cold and passionate on the outside.

On April 3, 2009, in the Hornets and Jazz games, Anderson appeared as a substitute. In less than 25 minutes, Anderson gave the Jazz 8 hotpots, throwing the Jazz generals away. This game can be regarded as Anderson's masterpiece, but it is also a microcosm of his entire career. As a marginal player, Anderson cannot have the absolute right to take action like those superstars, but as soon as Anderson comes on the court, he will show all his enthusiasm to give back to the fans. It is this attitude that has attracted a large number of fans and has also made him very popular in China.

Then what kind of player is Anderson? Today, the editor will take you to learn more about this basketball "weirdo".

After a child, she was abandoned by her father and depended on her mother.

Anderson's mother was named Linda. Before giving birth to Anderson, she was a little girl who liked to ride motorcycles on the streets, and Anderson's father Clawson Anderson was a playboy who advocated romance and freedom. As the saying goes, "Men are not bad, women don't love them." When Linda and Anderson first met, Linda fell in love with the man in front of her and became pregnant with Clawson's child before getting married, and the two completed their marriage in less than three months of their relationship.

Linda and Clawson, who just got married, still fell in love very much, but Clawson is a man who yearns for "freedom". After a few years of marriage, Clawson felt that marriage had bound him, so he decided to leave Linda and his children. In 1982, the Anderson family moved to Texas. After coming to their new home, Claus began to draw big pie for Linda. Just as Anderson and his mother were looking forward to a better life, Claus left his wife and children on the grounds that he wanted to develop in a big city and embarked on the road to pursuing "dream". Linda, who knew it later, cried out after understanding Clawson's true intentions, burst into tears, "How can you treat your children like this!" But no matter how much regret it is, it is useless. For the sake of the children, Linda has to continue to work hard for life. In order to make the three children full, Linda has to work three jobs, working more than eighteen hours a day, which makes Anderson little admire her mother.

Anderson has always had a wish, which is to buy a big house for his mother and a Lamborghini, because in Anderson's childhood memory, his mother gave too much for him and his siblings, and Anderson especially wanted to repay his mother's grace for raising her.

When Anderson was 10 years old, in order to reduce the burden on his mother, Anderson took the initiative to go to his grandfather's house to live. However, because Anderson was too naughty when he was a child, Anderson's grandfather could not bear the support of his biological father's home, so he sent Anderson to his biological father's home. But Anderson's biological father was a prodigal son and did not want to bear the responsibility of taking care of Anderson little, so he sent Anderson little to the welfare home, and Anderson little spent his childhood in the welfare home, which also distorted Anderson little's three views.

Missed the draft and became associated with China

When Anderson was 15 years old, he finally returned to the area where his mother was. At this time, Anderson was already in high school, so he studied in the local high school.

In fact, Anderson was a very handsome young man in high school. His appearance was similar to that of Hollywood movie star Little Little. Anderson at that time was completely different from his current image. If Anderson didn't play basketball and became an actor, he would probably have a bright future.

In the first year of high school, Anderson's height was much higher than ordinary people and his jump was outstanding, so the coach of the high school team brought him on the road of basketball, and the reason why Anderson was obedient was that he might get a scholarship when playing basketball. When Anderson heard that he had money to take, he was so happy that he agreed readily.

In high school, Anderson's fame spread throughout Texas. Many well-known basketball universities sent invitations to Anderson, and Anderson preferred the University of Houston. However, due to excessive addiction to basketball, Anderson's academic performance was basically zero, so Anderson had to abandon the University of Houston, which he was longing for, and instead entered a community college called Bollinger University to play.

Because his teammates and head coaches recognized Anderson, after playing for only one year in college, Anderson decided to try out the professional arena and participate in the NBA draft in 1999. However, because his decision to participate in the draft was so sudden that he didn't even understand how to participate in the draft, which directly led to him missing the opportunity to submit a draft application to the league. So Anderson became the first player in NBA history to lose before he could run.

Fortunately, the high school coach helped him again and introduced him to a job with the Texas basketball team. While playing around with the team, Anderson unexpectedly formed a relationship with the CBA and became a member of Jiangsu Nangang Team.

Although he is a big shot in high school and college leagues, Anderson still seems to be a layman compared to professional players, even compared with professional players in the CBA.

No shooting, no dribbling, and no good basketball vision. The 19-year-old Anderson is a complete rookie, but the head coach of the Nangang team saw Anderson's potential because he found that Anderson's running and jumping ability was very outstanding. If used reasonably, Anderson would definitely become the most important puzzle on the Nangang team's road to winning the championship..

With the help of the head coach of the Nangang team, Anderson made great progress very fast. In a round of the CBA 01-02 season, Anderson finally got a chance to play, and Anderson was like a tiger out of the cage. In just less than twenty minutes, Anderson sent seven blocks. Although his offensive skills were still rough, his excellent defensive ability had conquered the head coach's home fans.

In the next game, as long as Anderson plays, he can bring a visual feast to the fans. Whether it is a volleyball block or a dunk, it will cause the fans to scream repeatedly. In one game, Anderson's football skills have also made great progress. From an offensive man to averaging 17 points, 13.5 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game, Anderson only took less than a year. Yao Ming once commented to Anderson: "This man is too physically strong and is also a very interesting player."

Interestingly, during his CBA, Anderson deliberately tattooed the two Chinese characters "good" and "evil" on his left and right arms, which also indicates that he will definitely be a contradictory combination of "good" and "evil" in his future career.

After two seasons in the CBA, Anderson embarked on the way home and rushed to the NBA, which was a dream he had been sticking to.

From the CBA to the NBA, he became an inspirational model

In 2001, Anderson returned to the United States and joined the University of Texas, and later joined the NBDL League in the United States as the "No. 1 pick". With his outstanding performance, in September of the same year, Anderson won the trust of the Nuggets and received a contract worth $350,000, and Anderson became the first NBDL player to be symptomatically influenced by the NBA.

In his first season of joining the Nuggets, Anderson participated in 24 games on behalf of the team. Although he averaged only 3 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game, Anderson's role cannot be explained by the data alone, because Anderson is like a "sardine". As long as he plays, the team will become full of passion, both offense and defense. At the same time, Anderson's passion has won the favor of many fans, and many fans are watching the game for Anderson.

Because Anderson has excellent arm span and amazing bounce, Nuggets fans who love Anderson gave Anderson a nickname - Birdman. Since then, Chris Anderson's name rarely appears in fans' mouths, and "Birdman" has become Anderson's new name. As Anderson's position in the hearts of fans has become higher and higher, Anderson has received many endorsements, even companies like Starbucks, and has also found Anderson as the image spokesperson. In order to feedback the fans' love, Anderson often pays out of his own pocket to take the children from the orphanage to the stadium to watch the football on site.

But like most players from the slums, after getting huge wealth, Anderson did not know how to manage his finances. He began to squander his wealth. He did not lose his talented cars and watches, and he also refused to accept everyone. In this way, before the season ended, Anderson's first salary in the Nuggets was squandered.

Coming to the 2002-03 season, Anderson's role in the team was even more important, and his salary reached 510,000 US dollars. Throughout the season, Anderson played 59 games, and his average playing time came from 10 minutes last season to 14.5 minutes. The data also rose accordingly. Although the number of blocks decreased slightly, his average score and rebounds increased, reaching 5.2 points and 4.6 rebounds.

And in the last season of the Nuggets, Anderson focused more on defense. In 71 games, Anderson contributed 114 blocks, with averaging 1.6 blocks per game, which is only the data obtained in 14.5 minutes per game. If it were converted to 48 minutes, Anderson won the honor of the block king. After the contract with the Nuggets ended, Anderson quickly signed a contract with the Hornets, with an annual salary of $2.25 million, but this large amount of wealth allowed Anderson to go to the abyss. On January 27, 2006, Anderson was found to be drug-taking, which was explicitly prohibited in the NBA league, so Anderson was suspended for two years, and the Hornets' recruitment plan was also declared to be unsuccessful. During the two years of being suspended, Anderson also realized his mistakes, so he actively trained. Always ready to come back again.

In March 2008, Anderson's suspension was lifted. By July, the old club, the Nuggets, once again, issued an olive branch to Anderson, offering a two-year basic salary contract for Anderson, worth about $8 million. In the past two years of the Nuggets, Anderson has brought his strengths to the extreme. Various hot pots have made his opponents miserable, and at the same time, he has also let himself emerge from the shadow of the suspension.

After the end of the contract with the Nuggets, Anderson got the ten-day short contract issued by the Heat in January 2013. Faced with this opportunity, Anderson cherished it very much. In the average playing time of less than 13 minutes, Anderson was extremely cautious in every move and tried his best every time to defend. This made the Heat see the attitude of the veteran, so Anderson got the Heat's contract worth a total of 7.7 million US dollars as he wished. In the 12-13 season, Anderson helped the Heat Big Three win the NBA championship again, which is also Anderson's highest honor in the NBA.

As we grow older, Anderson's athletic ability has been greatly reduced. After the contract with the Heat ended, Anderson's career also ushered in a late stage. Finally, in 2017, with the Hornets officially announced the layoff of Anderson, Anderson's NBA career ended.

Having gained weight, his beautiful girlfriend never leaves her. Now her family is happy

Now Anderson is 46 years old. He has gained weight seriously after leaving the arena, but his girlfriend has never left her until the two formed a happy family.

Anderson's wife is Tina Wiseman, a mixed-race between China and the United States, which is consistent with Anderson's experience of playing basketball in China and the United States.. Tina Wiseman is a model underwear, so her figure is very hot. Because of the mixed Chinese and American race, Wiseman has three-dimensional facial features of American women, but not as rough as European and American women. No wonder Anderson is loyal to this girlfriend.

Anderson and Wiseman reached a lover's relationship as early as 2013. Although Anderson had all kinds of bad behaviors, Wiseman never gave up Anderson. After 10 years of long-distance love, the two finally got married and entered the palace of marriage.

Conclusion

As a functional player, Anderson's ability and passion are talked about by fans. If Anderson can better restrain himself, I believe Anderson will definitely leave more explosive moments in the NBA.
