Chapter 435 Who Is The Real Michael

While Stephen was busy making money, he did not forget to train and pay attention to the latest trends of the team. During the three-day rest period, Stephen signed an endorsement contract and settled a new home in Seattle. Inside, cash and property accounted for more than [-] million yuan, far exceeding his player contract.

You must know that he is still holding a middle-class contract, and he only made a move of 500 million, but only his few endorsements, each of which has an annual income of about 500 million, three endorsements plus player contracts plus this property. , Stephen's annual income has exceeded 2000 million, but after deducting taxes, it is only a little over 1000 million.

Stephen knew that all of these gains were linked to his performance last month. If it wasn't for his excellent performance last month, these incomes would have been cut in half at least, so Stephen deeply felt that all efforts were rewarded , and if you don't work hard, there will be no return.

Coupled with his own previous experience, Stephen has a congenital contempt for those players who have talents but don't work hard. He likes the players who lack talents but work hard, but at the same time, he also knows that the team There must be such a player, but a team with insufficient talent will never develop very well.

Needless to say, Coupard's talent, from the day he met, Stephen felt that this guy didn't cherish his own talent, so Stephen kept pushing him forward, but it was a pity that the two years in the Clippers were delayed Time, otherwise Coupard's abilities are not limited to those in front of him.

But Coupard's talent is at most making him an excellent center forward, touching the first-class realm, but now that inside players are scarce, if Coupard is like this, it is also dare to be a hot commodity in the trading market, so Cooper As long as Germany can continue his current performance, it should not be a problem to get a big contract.

In addition, there is Durant. Through this month's performance, Stephen clearly realized that Durant has a talent far beyond anyone on the team. This talent is not only physical, but also golf quotient, technology, understanding ability, Willpower and everything related to rebounding.

If it wasn't for this guy's somewhat introverted personality, he doesn't like to talk too much, and his style of play is inclined to the outside line, Stephen believes that Durant will definitely be more famous and valued than he is now, but that's good, Stephen doesn't need to worry about being caught by this guy. Steal the limelight.

On the last day of the three-day rest period, Stephen had just finished training with his teammates. When he ran past a security guard, the security guard suddenly handed a large stack of newspapers to Stephen. .

Naturally, Stephen would not misunderstand that the security guard just let himself read the newspaper to pass the time, so he immediately turned the newspaper to the sports section and read it. After Felietta's misunderstanding of Stephen was eliminated, and since there were no articles criticizing Stephen , Stephen never paid attention to this newspaper again, who knew that another article related to Stephen appeared on it today.

"The magic is fading, what else can we expect from Stephen?" "After reading the title, Stephen immediately read the end of the article. Stephen thought it was written by Felietta again, but he didn't expect it to be a very strange name, Kemal Morenst.

Who is this guy?Stephen curiously read the article from beginning to end. After reading it, Stephen threw the newspaper into the trash can. What a joke, there is nothing new in the whole article. Just counting Stephen's average points per game, it shows a gradual decline conclusion.

Then he ranked the defensive rankings of each team in the league, and pointed out that the reason why Stephen obtained such good data and the team's performance is so good is that the opponents in front are basically in the second half of the defensive rankings To put it simply, the teams that the Supersonics defeated in front of them were all weak teams, and it is normal to have a good record. When the Supersonics played against those strong teams in the league, they never proved themselves.

Then he pointed out a series of problems for the Supersonics seemingly expertly, and then said in the article that if these problems are not resolved, the Supersonics will not go too far, and will only go further and further on the road to failure. Those questions arguably apply to any team in the league.

But the advantage of this article is that it has data, theories and conclusions. If you don’t know much about the Sonics, and you are not too professional about basketball, this article is very deceptive for such people. Read it People who read this article will start to worry about the Sonics.

In particular, Kemal Morenst strongly suggested that the Sonics reduce the number of shots taken by Stephen, thinking that it is a very risky behavior to put the safety of the team on Stephen as it is now. If the performance is not good, the team will be in trouble.

This theory seems reasonable, but Kemal didn’t say who the Sonics should rely on if they don’t rely on Stephen. At the same time, under the leadership of Stephen’s high number of shots, the Sonics have achieved unprecedented good results. , this guy also completely ignored it.

But the media is like this. They have the power to talk freely, but the parties have no way to counterattack. You are asking for trouble if you compete with them at the media level. As long as you perform well, naturally all doubts will disappear. Generally speaking, in addition to good personal data, the team's record is also good. This is the responsibility and obligation of a team boss.

Although Stephen didn't care, but after thinking about it, he called Felietta and touched the bottom of this guy. After Stephen put down the phone, he suddenly realized that it was so.

It turned out that "Seattle Weekly" immediately found that the circulation of the newspaper had declined after Felietta stopped criticizing Stephen. After discovering the reason, there was no way to solve it. Felietta was unwilling to stand against Stephen anymore. They couldn't force Felietta to criticize Stephen, so they came up with an idea.

They spent a lot of money to hire a professional from other media, this is Kemal Morientes, he is specially used to criticize Stephen, and the task of Fillietta is to stand on the opposite side of him, two people praise each other Criticism, verbal wars on the "Seattle Weekly" to attract people's attention.

Felietta told Stephen that in the next issue, there will be a positive article she wrote specifically for Stephen and the Supersonics, let him watch it carefully. I don’t pay much attention to this Stephen, and I have seen a lot of articles about myself. , nothing surprising, criticism is quite rare.

It’s not that Stephen is a bit of a slut, and he feels uncomfortable if he doesn’t criticize. Stephen mainly wants to analyze his own shortcomings or bad things by criticizing his own articles, and then correct or improve himself. This is Stephen. purpose of viewing.

That afternoon, the next opponent of the Sonics, the Milwaukee Bucks, flew to Seattle. During an impromptu interview, the star of the Bucks, Michael Reed, was suddenly asked by a reporter, who was the most successful, he or Stephen? In the second round of the draft, Michael Reed suddenly said to the media: "To comment on the success of a professional player's career, in the long run, at least several seasons of outstanding performance are needed to say that he is a successful player."

"Neither I nor Stephen have proved that they are successful. Stephen has only played for two years, and I have played for seven seasons, and he has been a champion like the Spurs in the past two years. Playing in the system, it's no surprise to get results like this."

"I don't deny that since this season, in the previous games, Stephen's performance can only be described as miraculous, but there are not only these dozen games in a season, I think at least at the end of this season, let's discuss this again." The problem is the right game, and if you evaluate a successful second-round pick, you have to add Gilbert Arenas."

"Someone once called Stephen "the next Michael". I don't know what you think about this issue?" The reporter showed a scheming smile on his face, and then continued to put the microphone in front of Michael Reed and asked, Reed After glancing at him, he continued to answer.

"I think there is only one great Michael, and his status is incomparable. Not everyone can be the next Michael, but I am also the real Michael, not the next Michael." Michael Reid replied humorously Make everyone present laugh, and then the interview is over.

Stephen didn't read this interview. He was drinking coffee in a coffee shop, surrounded by the glamorous Fillietta. The two were talking about entering Hong Kong, and the phone on Fillietta rang suddenly. Almost at the same time, The phone on Stephen's body also rang, and after the two picked it up, they didn't know what Michael Reed said in the interview.

Stephen didn't think his words were provocations, but even if he was dissatisfied with someone, when facing interviews, most people understood the reason why Huahuaqiaozi was praised by everyone, and most of them flattered each other, like Michael Reed Yes, although the words sound pertinent, they are actually a manifestation of dissatisfaction.

"This guy called Michael's name for nothing. He's no match for you. Don't be angry. Just teach him a lesson in the game tomorrow." Stephen wasn't angry yet, but Felietta got angry on Stephen's behalf first. .

"I don't intend to be the next Michael. If he wants to do it, let him do it." Stephen said nonchalantly. No one knows exactly what he thinks in his heart. The real Michael has no objection to this. As for Stephen, he just wants to be himself.
