The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 228 [Creation of God]

On the 1st, the Clippers fought back-to-back and beat the Timberwolves 115 to 81 at home by 34 points, achieving 4 consecutive victories.

Slaughtering opponents seems to have become the habit of the Clippers. Ye Feng only played more than two quarters, leading too much, and left the game early for a rest. He scored 16 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. He failed to score 20 for the first time.

The best performer was Stephen Curry. He swept away the haze of only 8 points in the game and scored a career high of 26 points and 7 assists.Barea, Thornton, Smith and Morrow, who came off the bench, also scored in double figures.

After this game, the name of the Clippers "bench gangster" was officially called.After they came on the court, they scored as crazy as the main players, making garbage time very interesting.

This group of people caused Ye Feng's playing time to be shortened and his statistics to drop.If he continues to play in this situation, it will be more difficult for him to win the scoring champion. Unless he plays against the underdogs to score points, Thibodeau will generally not make such an arrangement.

With 4 wins and 0 losses in a week, Ye Feng was elected the best player in the first week of the Western Conference, and the best player in the Eastern Conference was won by LeBron James.This year, no one said that Ye Feng was a weakened James.He looks as good as anyone, at least in terms of attracting double teams, and will lead the team to win.

In the official NBA strength list released every week, the Clippers also topped the list.Their offensive power is a bit higher than No.2, and their offensive and defensive conversion rate of 103.3 is also the first in the league.Although the defensive points are much higher than last season, and the opponent's shooting percentage is not good enough, but this will not affect the winning.The Clippers rank fifth in the league in total rebounds and third in the league in offensive rebounds. Their rebounding advantage allows them to shoot more shots than their opponents per game.

Which star is the most popular in the new season?After investigation, Ye Feng beat James and Kobe to the first place.

He is already recognized as a genius in the league, and there are no basketball fans all over the world who do not know him.The sales volume of Ye Feng's "Hungry Wolf II" sneakers is firmly in the forefront of the league. "74", a back number that was not paid attention to before, has also become famous.Many players in high school and college use this jersey number.In Los Angeles, people wearing the number 74 jersey can be seen everywhere on the street court.

Some people may wonder, Ye Feng has only debuted for more than two years, he has neither won a championship, nor been elected as an MVP, nor has he even officially participated in the All-Star Game, how could he be so famous?
It is one aspect of Ye Feng's own efforts to achieve results.The main reason is that the alliance intends to "create gods"!
Ye Feng often has beautiful goals, so he has to replay them 3 to 5 times on the spot, and then replay the five best goals of the day's sports news 2 to 3 times, and replay the top ten goals 2 to 3 times every week, and replay the live broadcast of the game on the TV station for halftime. The highlights are played over and over again. As long as people watch the NBA, it is impossible not to know him.

With Ye Feng's experience in the media industry, ten publicity campaigns have the possibility of misleading fans and exaggerating the facts.Officials often publicize that in the eyes of fans, he has already become the most entertaining player in the world.In fact, he may only have a few highlights in a game, and the other shots are all boring shots.

Some people are geniuses, some people are geniuses.

For example, Jordan is called a genius when he wins the scoring title. Iverson also won the scoring title 4 times, but he is a ghost.There is a difference between a ghost and a genius, and the difference is very big.Geniuses are often recognized by the world and are great; geniuses are often forgotten by people, but they are also great in fact, but they are not recognized.

The most successful thing about Ye Feng is not hard work, not talent, but a person who knows the current affairs is a hero.

David Stern is the real boss of the NBA. He says whoever can do it can do it, and whoever can't can do it.Say no, no, no, no.

Since Jordan was about to retire in 98, Stern has never stopped hyping gimmicks.

Once Jordan withdrew, Stern had to find a way to make the league attract fans and keep the market. In 1998, he prepared his first stunt: Jordan vs Kobe.

At that time, Kobe was not popular at all, but his figure, temperament, and style of play were all like Jordan, and he even imitated Jordan when he stuck out his tongue, so Kobe was selected as an All-Star.

The hype was met with much mockery in the media.Kobe was Jones' substitute in the Lakers, averaging only 15.4 points per game and shooting less than 43%. In the All-Star Game, Jones became Kobe's substitute!Although the data is not very good, but in order to let Kobe take the lead, Stern was born as the youngest starter in the All-Star Game. Let him take over, what if he doesn't directly match up with Jordan?vote?Stern had the final say.

Kobe was 18 years old at the time, and he insulted star power forward Karl Malone. Malone was so angry that he didn't want to play in the second half.Kobe hit the iron like crazy, but Stern was happy, because that's what he wanted to see.It would be bad if Kobe was a soft guy who didn't dare to make a move or show off when he saw Jordan.

In 2000, another successor appeared, Vince Carter, who was better at dunking than Kobe.As a gimmick, it is to achieve a balance, one in the east and one in the west. Carter is also very competitive. He became famous in the slam dunk contest. Stern's hype script is even more exciting. After performing a dunk, kneel down to rookie Carter!
Kobe VS Carter has become the focus of hype, but in 2001, Iverson, who was only 183cm, was killed, and he used a sharp breakthrough to draw people's attention to himself.It's a pity that Stern didn't intend to spend his time on Iverson at all.

The league is more than basketball.Iverson doesn't understand this.No matter how well you play the ball, you have to be obedient.Stern's purpose is to let the NBA into the mainstream society, so that more parents and children like it.If the player is like a young and Dangerous boy in society, the league will not praise it.The official magazine once photographed Iverson on the cover of the magazine. After the shoot, Iverson's tattoo was removed by ps. Iverson scolded the official magazine's PR and added the tattoo.Stern was very upset when he learned about this, so how could he give him a good face?

Carter quickly fell for it.Stern wanted to find someone in the east again, a handsome and unrestrained scorer.So McGrady, who was in the Magic, came into Stern's sight again.The league gimmick has become McGrady vs Kobe, who is more like Jordan.

After the game between the Wizards and the Magic, Jordan gave the answer.After the game, Jordan took off his shoes and wrote with a pen: stay healthy, enjoy the game, and good luck.Send the caddy to McGrady's locker room.Obviously Jordan prefers McGrady.Later, Jordan also said that his son's room was covered with posters of McGrady.McGrady said, I have always placed those shoes at the door of my house, and I will look at them every time I go out.This kind of "ambiguity" was passed into Kobe's ears by the media, which stimulated Kobe.In the last confrontation between the Lakers and Wizards, Kobe scored 55 points and Jordan scored 23 points.

At the press conference after the game, Jordan commented that "Kobe is replacing me." Kobe said: "I defeated Michael in Michael's way."

But soon F4 disbanded, O'Neill transferred, Zen Master retired, and Kobe was sued in court.

Stern knew that the Lakers couldn't support him, so he took a fancy to James and Anthony, who had just joined the NBA. They won half of the season's rookie of the month in the East and West.In the case of choosing one of the two, Stern asked Anthony a question to see if he could resist the role of successor, because he played better than James.

At that time, the media deliberately asked, "Has Anthony booked the best rookie?" Anthony was very impatient, and later quarreled with the media.Stern was disappointed with him, knowing how to deal with the media is an essential quality for a successor.Talking nonsense in front of the media is a taboo for successors.James understands.Anthony doesn't understand.In the end, as the best rookie fell into the hands of James, Anthony was given up.

Careful people can see the importance of alliance hype.Wade also played very beautifully, but before the Sharks traveled east and before the Heat won the championship, the media never cared about Wade and the Heat.

In the rookie game in 2004, James and Anthony were surrounded by heavy traffic, and Wade had no one to interview him. Finally, a reporter came, and the question he asked made Wade vomit blood: "May I ask what your name is? Which team are you from?" ?”

Wade wanted to say, "My name is Steve Rogers, and I'm Captain America..." Then he pointed to Bosh who was also ignored, "This guy is Iron Man."

However, the 2003 generation could not be all the gimmicks of the NBA. The Cavaliers entered the playoffs but were swept away.By 2007, Stern knew that many old fans from the 80s had almost stopped watching the NBA. In order to bring them back, Stern launched a new gimmick: Celtics VS Lakers.The Celtics star team, Gasol to the Lakers, Kobe Bryant regular season MVP, Garnett vote winner + best defensive player, Stern gave them enough confidence to make a comeback, Kobe tried his best after the Eagle County case, kept a low profile ,Sense of shame and then courage.Stern did not forget Kobe.The Big Three is Garnett's first attempt, and the NBA's first.The Celtics' experiment was successful, but they were too old.Kobe is not young anymore, which reminds Stern that he can't "do nothing".Walking on the road, Stern heard many young people talking about who is the strongest person in the league?Kobe or James?This also reminded Stern that he released the 23VS24 official promotional video in a high-profile manner, and the two protagonists in the film are James and Kobe.

With Garnett's injury this season, Stern felt that his perfect script was developing, but halfway through, "Cheng Yaojin" came, and the Clippers led by Ye Feng!
Ye Feng knew how to use the media to attract attention, he made a mess of Kobe, who was selected by the league, and forced himself to be fired.Later, Kobe's record of 81 points was broken.Stern was a little angry at first, and then turned into surprise. Until the playoffs, when Ye Feng took a bunch of recognized scumbags and wiped out Kobe's Lakers, Stern also made up his mind.

Holding Ye Feng is the best choice. The youngest scoring champion in NBA history and the best rookie in the NBA without being drafted, it is most suitable for him to play against James. Kobe is old and his future prospects are not as good as Durant.

The NBA officials used the media to hype, and even the promotional video has become 23VS74, all of which are highlights of James and Ye Feng, the intention is already very obvious.

The Clippers are in such a favorable time and place, and the time to win the championship has come.
