Guard With a Knife

D'Antoni obviously didn't want to leave the city like this. He wanted to make a comeback. He tried to regain respect in the locker room, including repairing the relationship with Snoopy. For this reason, he even personally sent his brother DandAnthony back to his hometown.

Currently, as the general manager, he has established the most important job this summer. He hopes to get a lottery pick through the trade and use it to select Stephen Curry.

If it is before the start of the playoffs, all the Knicks have no trading value, and each of them is labeled as a spam contract or a high salary and low energy. But now it's different, after crazy playoffs. Each of them is full of trading value, even Stephen Marbury, who has eyes on his expiring contract and sophisticated game experience.

Therefore, for D'Antoni, this matter has no operational difficulty at all.

He has studied Stephen Curry's game, although this little guy is not currently favored by mainstream basketball commentators. But he is very optimistic about his future, he thinks Stephen Curry can become a very good spatial point guard, his partner with Snoopy will be seamless.

And, most importantly...he has a very good relationship with Snoopy.

Now, what D'Antoni has to do is to tell Snoopy through Stephen Curry: Even if I return to the head coach seat, you will still stabilize your current position, and...I am willing to trade your best little brother to help you.

Stephen Curry told Doug before the start of the Cleveland Cavaliers' tie-break with the Orlando Magic: "D'Antoni promised me that he will do his best to select me this summer."

Du Ge raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, but he did not speak.

Because he doesn't want to interfere with the management's decision on the draft.

The arrival of Stephen Curry has benefits and hidden dangers.

Dugge's attitude towards this matter is: let the flow take its course.

"This is a letter from Mr. D'Antoni." Stephen Curry delivered an autographed letter from his bag to Doug: "I can hear that he values ​​you very much. Everything he talks to me is focused on About how to build a team around you."

Du Ge took the letter. D'Antoni first apologized to Du Ge. At the same time, he also emphasized that he did not support and did not know what his brother did. If he knew in advance, he would definitely stop it from happening. Reporter, he also expressed his heartfelt applause and pride for the achievements of the team led by Doug. And emphasize... the team will definitely build a team around you in the future. We will choose the best helper for you and realize the dream of champion together!

After reading the letter, Doug put it on a shoe box... This is a sample of signature shoes that Nike sent over in the afternoon. They sent a total of five sneakers in different colors and Boost versions.

Doug has put it on his feet.

This is a low-cut...even a style similar to casual shoes. It focuses on fashion trends. However, Nike did not reduce its technological content.

"Duke Generation" is the first Nike product that uses a cushioning solution that is embedded in Lunarlon and matched with a Zoom-Air cushion. At the same time, the forefoot has a groove similar to Free, plus a Flyknit woven upper, which incorporates fiber threads. Brings higher strength and toughness, and is lighter. The outsole directly wraps the Flyknit shoe body, making it very flexible and fashionable in terms of visual effects.

In fact...In order to focus on the female fan market, Nike also launched the "Duke Girl" version, which has more choices in color matching. However... there is a big difference between the sole part and the official basketball version. As one of the designers, Snoopy personally chose a sole made of TPU foam particles from a number of outsoles provided by Nike Labs. It looks a lot like popcorn...This popcorn material has many excellent properties, such as low density, good wear resistance, low hardness, good resilience, high tensile strength, and good tear strength.

When Doug saw it from several candidate lists, he felt a sense of familiarity inexplicably, and then a ghostly name appeared in his head: Boost!

In this way, Boost has become the name that distinguishes the stadium version from the fashion version.

Stephen Curry obviously favors Duger's signature shoes. Recently, Lin Weiwei helped him negotiate a sponsorship contract with Nike for three years of 4 million US dollars, which is almost the limit he can get. After all...not every rookie who wanders in the lottery area can get a sponsorship contract.

"I decided to wear your signature shoes in the new season." Stephen Curry said in full praise: "I heard... Nike priced your first signature shoe at $168. This price is second only to the Nike camp. LeBron James’s signature shoes. I heard that Kobe Bryant and Kevin Durant are both upset by it."

Doug shrugged his shoulders. As a top student in the business school, he said helplessly: "This is just a business practice. The price is set based on market feedback. No one will do anything that violates the laws of the market."

"I heard Daphne say that your contract even contains the terms of independent brand operation? You even have the opportunity to become a partner like Michael Jordan?" Stephen Curry continued.

He seemed particularly curious about this matter.

"If you have your own brand, you must sign me as a spokesperson." Stephen Curry emphasized very seriously: "I dream of owning a pair of signature shoes embroidered with my name."

Dugge is a cautious person, but when he heard Curry say this, he did not hesitate, blurt out his promise, and added: "If I have an independent brand of sneakers, I will sign a lifetime endorsement contract with you, and Create an independent signature shoe for you."

Stephen Curry jumped up immediately, he was so excited that he even reached out his hand to make an agreement with Douglas.

At this time, after the ESPN commentators on the TV analyzed and predicted before the game, the game finally began.

Dwight Howard looked extraordinarily excited tonight, starting from the jump ball, he showed extraordinary positivity.

Amidst the cheers of the home fans, the Magic's first attack was completed by dunk dunks in the air relay. Turkoglu swayed from the outside and forced into the penalty area. After attracting double-teams, the Turks threw the basketball easily to the basket. Dwight Howard suddenly volleyed...Boom!

The basketball hit the basket.

The basket was buzzed by him.

Howard has extremely fierce explosive power and bounce, and his presence in the basket is unparalleled in the world!

The game continued. LeBron James drove full power tonight. He rushed into the Orlando penalty area like a Hummer, but at the free throw line, he encountered two tall forwards Turkoglu and Lewis at the same time. The ball came out, but Derondi West failed to make a three-pointer...Bang!

This is definitely not a good sign for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Easy side to fight again, Nelson dribbled the ball to Turkoglu directly after halftime.

In the last two games... The Magic's No. 1 and No. 5 positions are very obedient to Lord Duke's instructions. Nelson no longer forcibly carry explosive breakthroughs, and Howard no longer insists on pursuing individual singles. The basketball was handed over to Turkoglu and Alstom in the rotation, which seemed smooth and much overall.

In contrast, the Cavaliers still rely on LeBron James as the strong point and other players as the assisted catch-and-shoot style of play.

This style of play is very efficient in the tailwind.

But once you enter the headwind, LeBron James will be very pressured. And even if he played super god-level performance, the Cavaliers may not be able to come back to life!

Tonight, the Cavaliers seem to be a little bit headwind.

Stephen Curry lay on the sofa: "The Cavaliers actually lack a player like you. They don't occupy the ball, and are tough enough to be able to connect and contribute silently!"

"No wonder the Knicks have been pursuing the 2010 plan!"

Stephen Curry talked here, raised his head again, and said to Dugge: "Hey, do you know? D'Antoni told me today about his future plans. He hopes to form a team composed of you, LeBron James, and Stade Meyer formed the Big Three lineup ~www.ltnovel.com~ and he thought I would become the fourth. He spent a lot of time describing the prospects of this lineup to me. If it happens... we will indeed become the whole lineup. The best team in the world to defend and counterattack. We only need to match an average defensive center to sweep the entire league."

Curry seemed longing for it.

But Doug shook his head and expressed his feelings for the first time: "I have no interest in plans such as the formation of the Big Three. I have never thought of ruling the league with a big star. I just want to be led by one person. The team that belongs to me alone has gone through the world."

Stephen Curry looked at Snoopy with a serious face, he had a lot to say in his heart, but... he didn't find a way out.

boom!

Dwight Howard on the TV dunks again, his speed and impact make the old and heavy Ilgauskas unable to parry.

Now that the NBA is showing a rapid trend, perhaps this era of positional offenses belonging to super centers is about to pass.

Stephen Curry stared at the TV screen in a daze. There was something called ambition burning in his eyes.

D'Antoni told him a lot this afternoon, part of which is to analyze future alliance trends. D'Antoni believes that Stephen Curry has the ability and opportunity to become the leader of the next era, which brings great confidence to Stephen Curry. And when he heard Snoopy say, ‘he just wants to lead my team alone to overturn the world’, and watch Dwight Howard, who runs like a guard, completes thunderous dunks in the penalty area.

He made a decision in his heart.

The game on the TV continues.

However, the points difference is gradually widening.
