NBA: Miller moment at the start

The Lakers lost the next two games by a large margin. Wang Ba's performance was not satisfactory. He scored 14 points and 16 points in the two games respectively, and his shooting percentage plummeted. The outside world questioned his ability to lead the team. Wang Ba was helpless. In consecutive away games, and back-to-back games, he played against strong teams such as the Trail Blazers and the 76ers. Walton, the old six, tried his best to increase his playing time. His already weak physical fitness was seriously overdrawn and he could not adjust at all. There is another important reason. His continuous highlight performance has made the opponent pay attention to him, and the 76ers' defense has exposed Wang Ba's shortcomings. His speed is not fast enough, his height is not enough, his bounce is average, his 3-point shooting rate is unstable when there is interference, his breakthrough impact is not enough, and his physical fitness is poor. Facing targeted defense, Wang Ba seems to be difficult to adapt. Of course, there are many other factors. Rondo's suspension has caused Wang Ba to be unable to play without the ball. When he was targeted, he had too few tactical options. The worst part is the permanent skills.

Super Copy can randomly copy a certain ability of the 75 NBA stars at the beginning of the game. It should be a miracle.

Maybe he was too unlucky. He copied Nash's dunk and Duncan's 3-pointer in two consecutive games. Fortunately, the skills can be upgraded.

So,

The outside world thinks that he does not meet the All-Star standard and is just an ordinary starter. He is not angry and recognizes it.

The NBA league schedule is intensive, and physical fitness is the biggest test. If you want to become a star, you need stable output. He still has a long way to go.

The Lakers ended their road trip with 3 consecutive losses. They will have 5 home games next. They can rest and adjust well to face the Warriors who are striving for a 3-peat dynasty.

They have Durant and the Splash Brothers, as well as Kung Fu basketball master Green. It must be a fierce battle.

…

NBA headquarters,

Media director’s office, Mike’s face was terribly gloomy:

“Are you going to default on your debt now?”

A cold voice came from the other end of the phone:

“You didn’t get the job done, and you still want a reward. That’s too good of a thought.”

“I’ve discussed Wang Ba’s negative news at the meeting. Are you trying to cheat me now?”

“I only know that Wang Ba has not been punished. If his negative news was really discussed at the high-level meeting, this shouldn’t be the result.”

Mike took a deep breath, his tone grim:

“Because Wang Ba is very popular and the Lakers’ ratings are rising, Xiao Hua won’t touch him. This is not I can control it. Are you sure you want to break the contract? "

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time, and the tone finally became gentle.

"I will do what I promised you, but there is one more thing I need your help with."

...

One day before the Lakers and Warriors game, Curry was blocked by the media outside the Warriors training hall:

"The team will play against the Lakers away tomorrow. Do you have the confidence to win the game?"

"Excuse me, do you know Wang Ba?"

"Wang Ba is a rookie in the league and has shown a strong 3-point talent. Do you have the confidence to gain an advantage in the matchup with him?"

The cute god did not answer the reporters' questions, holding his lunch box and entering the training hall under the escort of security.

The reporters were a little disappointed, but they did not plan to really interview Curry. During unofficial time, the superstar rarely accepted interviews.

Less than 5 minutes after Curry left, Green came late, and reporters swarmed in.

"Can I ask you a few questions?"

Green likes to be interviewed very much, and likes to be all kinds of sniping, so that there will be traffic, right?

"Ask any questions you have, but you only have 5 minutes."

The reporter at the front asked quickly:

"Excuse me, do you know Wang Ba?"

Green knows traffic, and shook his head decisively:

"No."

After briefly introducing Wang Ba, the reporter asked:

"He also shoots 3-pointers. Compared with Stephen, who do you think is better?"

Curry is the leader of the Warriors, and Green's answer is obvious:

"There is no doubt that Curry is the best 3-pointer in the league, no one else."

The reporter's eyes lit up:

"What about Thompson?"

"Thompson is better at shooting and defending after catching the ball, and Curry is good at shooting in the running game. The two have their own characteristics. There is no doubt that they are the best scorers in the league."

"What about Durant?"

"We were champions before he came."

Durant, who was walking over, was so angry that his nose was crooked. After I leave, let's see if you are still arrogant.

Green in 2022: Sorry, we are still champions after you leave.

While Green was being interviewed, Wang Ba was also blocked by someone. The person who blocked him was not a reporter, but an uncle from China.

The uncle was very familiar with him and rushed up to shake his hand:

"I am from Huili CompanyMarketing manager Lin Ziru, nice to meet you,"

Seeing Wang Ba's face full of confusion, thinking that he didn't know Huili, he quickly explained:

"Huili is a domestic shoe brand, the pride of domestic products. I know it's a bit presumptuous to find you directly, but we are eager to ask you to endorse it."

Wang Ba waved his hand:

"I know Huili, but I should find my agent for commercial cooperation."

Lin Ziru immediately said:

"We want to talk to you directly, so that you can save some commissions, right?"

Wang Ba frowned immediately,

It's good to save commissions, but many stars have been cheated by commercial contracts, and it's very dangerous to negotiate by bypassing agents.

Besides, when he signed with Bill Duffy, the global commercial contract was given to Bill Duffy. Leaving him aside would be against commercial credibility.

"Excuse me, please contact my agent. I need training now. Excuse me."

Lin Ziru watched him leave and immediately took out the phone,

"Uncle, Xiaoba refused and asked me to talk to his agent. ”

“You’re such a spendthrift! You’re giving your own money to others, you bastard!”

Thousands of miles away in China, Wang Lin was furious and swore. Lin Meilan laughed and rubbed salt into his wounds:

“Our son is ambitious!”

“At worst, find his agent. I don’t believe he’s willing to spend such a large endorsement fee!”

“I’ll call my son and tell him that you’ve acquired Huili. Tell him not to take the job!”

“You dare!”

The couple stared at each other, and Wang Lin was finally discouraged:

“Don’t tell that kid, or he won’t take the job. Where will I put my face!”

“You deserve it! You acted noble at first! Now you’re bragging to others! "

Wang Lin's face flushed.

The company's top management wanted to invite his son to be the spokesperson. He said that big talk was absolutely fine.

But the father and son had a very unhappy quarrel because of what happened two years ago. If Wang Ba knew that Huili was acquired by him, he would never accept it.

He didn't let anyone from the company go, so as not to be exposed, so he sent his distant relative Lin Ziru.

Lin Ziru was worried that his contact with Bill Duffy would be discovered, so he contacted Wang Ba privately, but he didn't expect to be rejected directly.

Lin Meilan didn't bother to pay attention to her husband. She twisted her waist and left, leaving a sentence:

"I will fly to the United States to see my son in a while."

Wang Lin: "! ! "
