i really don't want to play basketball

Chapter 24 [The opening game is coming]

The game between the Suns and the Nuggets proved that Shine was really expected. Even if Iverson and Anthony did not participate in this game, it did not affect the discussion among the media and fans.

The next day, the Los Angeles Times directly questioned the Lakers publicly:

[Why did the Lakers trade the son of Los Angeles, Shine? 】

When Xia Yin saw the newspaper at home, he almost didn't want to spit.

How did he become the son of Los Angeles?

Is he going to go the way of Akron's son?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
When Kobe saw the newspaper, he slapped the table angrily, "What nonsense are these media talking about? How did Shane become the son of Los Angeles? The fans also followed suit."

"Because of the heat, Haney," Vanessa said as she helped Kobe spread blueberry jam on the bread.

"You have to know that it has been 03 years since the Lakers won the championship in 5, and there is no championship. Although Gasol was traded this spring, you have not won the championship and have not proved yourself. The media and fans It makes sense for us to be anxious."

Kobe frowned and gripped the newspaper harder and harder, "I understand, I will win the championship, I will prove myself, I can still win the championship without that damn fat man!"

"Come on, Hani, I believe in you, you are the best!"

Vanessa sent Kobe a loving kiss of encouragement.

Xia Yin finished his breakfast here, and looked at Bill's wolfish appearance, "Okay, now we can talk about it, what's the matter with rushing here so early?"

Bill ignored him, but praised Kate, "Kate, your craftsmanship is awesome, this is the best breakfast I've ever had."

Kate laughed so hard, "OK, Bill, I know you want to get some free money, but if you don't tell me why you came here, some cheapskate will really get angry."

Xia Yin's eyelids trembled, "Kate~"

"OK, OK, the child is too old to talk about it, Yi, what do you think I should do?"

Lisa lowered her head and chuckled.

Nothing has changed in the daily life of the Xia Yin family.

"Xia Yin, this is the offer from Nike and Adidas to you. You can take a look and see if you want to accept it?"

Xia Yin picked up two contracts, and as expected they were sneaker contracts.

After all, this is the biggest endorsement income for an NBA star.

Xia Yin has two attributes, a fan and a fans, and the scope of fans is much larger than that of fans. It is extremely cautious for these two companies to endure until now before making an offer.

After reading the two quotes, Xia Yin threw away the contract directly.

"Bill, do you think I will accept such a contract? They underestimate me."

Bill shrugged and said nothing.

"Just wait, maybe at the end of this season, they can come up with a contract that matches my worth."

You must know that James got a seven-year, 7 million sneaker contract when he first entered the league. Even Durant got a seven-year, 9000 million sneaker contract.

When it came to him, Nike offered 5 million for 3000 years, which was a shame, not to mention Adidas, which was only 5 million for 2800 years.

Bill took a sip of coffee after eating, "Then what's your ideal price? Let me know."

Xia Yin squinted his eyes and thought for a while, "You can't sign a long-term contract, at most 4 years, the contract can't be less than 5000 million."

"It seems that you want to compete with James. You have advantages and disadvantages. If you can get good data before the All-Star Game this season, I will try my best to help you get this contract."

"And you still have the status of a singer, why can't you ask for more? What do you think of 4 million in 6000 years and 1 million in 1500 year?" Bill snapped his fingers.

Xia Yin said confidently, "I will give you enough confidence."

"OK, this matter is settled, and here's the thing. Jack Dorsey, the newly appointed CEO of Twitter, sent a document. I told you yesterday that they raised the offer again this morning."

"The price has been increased from US$10 to US$30. You are invited to join Twitter."

After reading the document, Xia Yin said, "Do you think it is possible for them to accept my investment?"

"They couldn't ask for more."

Xia Yin directly made a decision, "Then you go and talk to them, 400 million dollars plus my entry into Twitter, and see how many shares you can get."

"Leave it to me! There are also some endorsements for you. As you know, your second album exploded, allowing brands to see your value. Plus, you are playing basketball now, you know."

"Hold on for now and take your time. They will update my offer before the All-Star Game."

"As long as you know what's in your mind, then I'm leaving." Bill left in a hurry.

Xia Yin didn't stay at home for too long, and was about to fly back to Phoenix at noon.

But there are posters of Aoguanhai everywhere in Los Angeles, and now it has reached an important moment, and the results will be announced on the 4th of next month.

But as soon as he landed in Phoenix, he felt a different atmosphere. This is another person's home court.

Xia Yin didn't pay attention to these, he knew the result.

It's just that he feels that the weather in Phoenix is ​​still so hot. The weather in California is around 24 degrees. He wears a coat, but it's 31 degrees in Phoenix.

The hot Xia Yin took off his coat directly.

Fortunately, the NBA does not start in August. You must know that the temperature in Phoenix was as high as 8 degrees at that time.

But it doesn’t matter, it’s almost November and the temperature will gradually drop.

The Suns' preseason is going smoothly, and Xia Yin has proved that he is not a flash in the pan, but is really capable.

他场均可以拿到19.5分5.2篮板4.8助攻2抢断1.8盖帽。

Such data directly stunned everyone.

Xia Yin is really so powerful, a legacy from the draft?

This is the data of the top pick!

For a while, there were two voices in the league. One was envious of the Suns, who believed that the Suns were lucky, and the other was mocking the Lakers, letting go of potential rookies.

What's more, Xia Yin has countless fans. How many jerseys can be sold and how many new fans can be attracted to watch the game?

This situation also caused Suns fans and Lakers fans to "go to war" everywhere, and Northwest Shanxi became a mess for a while.

After all, the Suns and the Lakers are in love with each other. After 04, the Suns "running and bombing" crushed the fragmented Lakers. The Suns also eliminated the Lakers 4:1 in the playoffs last season.

Now that the Lakers are starting to rise, coupled with the grievances between Xia Yin and the Lakers, the two teams are now sworn enemies.

Xia Yin didn't pay attention to these, because the Suns began to switch tactics. The Suns' fast-playing whirlwind style of play and run-and-gun tactics have proved that they won't go far in the playoffs.

Gentry wants to switch defenses, but with the Suns lineup, how many can defend?

Thanks to Nash here, it was his support that made Gentry change some of his views, the defense can be done but the offense cannot be lost.

Xia Yin also participated, and he was experimenting with new tactics in the next few games.

The new tactic is probably a variant of run and gun, and it's a bit closer to the small ball tactic.

The whole team basically does not play a slow-paced half-court offense. If it is necessary to play a half-court offense, the positions of the five players on the court are relatively scattered, and they make more use of passes, pick-and-rolls, and running positions to create shooting opportunities. .

At the same time, we do not pursue complicated passing coordination to create open shooting opportunities, but try to keep the ball in motion and never miss any shooting opportunity.

Every player may be the initiator of the offense, and they may also be the terminator of the offense, striving to create the most efficient blitz in the shortest time.

The team can shoot a lot of three-pointers, which also provides the basis for the implementation of tactics.

But in the middle, we still need to find a balance point. We need to be fast and slow, and if we are slow, we need to defend. Who can we count on for defense?
Everyone looked at Xia Yin.

In the new season, Shayne will be the Suns' perimeter defense. Although he is a substitute, he is an invisible starter and the team's sixth man.

He is very important.
