NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 214 Post-All-Star Endorsements and Deals

The exciting All-Star weekend has passed, and the pace of the regular season is approaching again. All players must wake up from the relaxing weekend.

For some players, after the All-Star break, they have to start the next regular season game non-stop.

The Trail Blazers team where Wang Zelin is in is relatively better. After the All-Star Game on the 18th, the Trail Blazers' first game day in the second half of the season will be on the 20th.

They have two full days of rest, and their opponent is the Phoenix Suns, a weak team in the West that is being rebuilt.

"Wang, do you want to go out for two days? I've already made an appointment, let's go out and have fun together." Batum suggested enthusiastically.

It is undoubtedly a pity for Batum not to be selected for the All-Star Game, but Wang Zelin did not see a trace of frustration from this guy's face, which shows how much he has been playing these days.

From the 14th to the 18th, and then to the game day, Batum was equivalent to resting for a week.

"No!"

Wang Zelin was not interested.

Or maybe he doesn't have time to go out and play at all.

The All-Star has wasted a lot of his training time and affected the progress of the training plan. Fortunately, due to the outstanding performance of the All-Star Weekend, he has been richly rewarded.

First of all, the fan value has broken through the 8 million mark, and the day to unlock the next purple diamond superstar card is not far away.

The second is the arrival of new endorsements.

Just after returning to Portland on the night of the 18th, his agent Zhou Yang called him.

"Zelin, the day before yesterday I received a call from a big company who wanted you to endorse a product... Don't worry, there is absolutely no insult to China..."

"Moreover, the other party is very willing to give money, the endorsement amount is 3 million yuan in three years!"

Zhou Yang said excitedly.

Now he is more and more grateful that he can become Wang Zelin's manager. At the beginning, he simply wanted to show face to Wang Zelin's father and planned to take Wang Zelin for two years. Even he did not expect that Wang Zelin would play so well.

In his prediction, Wang Zelin would be very good if he could play Yi Jianlian's performance back then. As a result, the latter's exaggerated performance even surpassed Yao Ming.

This made him more active in handling financial matters for Wang Zelin.

"3 million in 2 years?"

Wang Zelin was a little surprised. He didn't expect such a big endorsement to come to his door, and he almost caught up with the sneaker contract given by Anta.

"Yes!"

"This is the outside world's affirmation of your commercial value!"

"If possible, the two of us will meet with the person in charge of the other party tomorrow."

Zhou Yang continued.

"okay, I get it."

Wang Zelin nodded.

……

Waking up early in the morning, Leina's legs were hanging on Wang Zelin's body, unwilling to let go.

"Little lazy cat..."

Wang Zelin got up, pushed his legs lightly, and did not forget to cover his girlfriend with a quilt when he left.

Seeing that Leina was still sound asleep, Wang Zelin quietly left the room and went to the first floor to take a bath.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Wang Zelin arrived at the designated company by car.

After getting off the car, the manager Zhou Yang had been waiting for a long time.

"Zering, let's go, on the top floor!"

So, Wang Zelin followed him to the top floor, halfway Zhou Yang introduced the origin of this company to Wang Zelin.

Barnyard Wei!

I believe that many people are familiar with this brand. It is a century-old brand, born in the United States in 1876, and has the title of "King of Beer".

When they came to the top floor, Zhou Yang went to announce first, and Wang Zelin leaned on a seat in the rest area.

At this time, a beautiful figure slowly came behind Wang Zelin.

"Hello handsome!"

The beauty said easily.

Hearing the words, Wang Zelin turned his head slowly, and found a black woman in sight.

"Excuse me?"

Wang Zelin took a closer look and found that although the woman in front of him was black, she was really good-looking even in terms of cross-racial aesthetics, except that her hairline was a bit...

Most importantly, he has no feelings for black girls!
It is said that as long as you are in good shape, turn off the lights.

But Wang Zelin prefers to turn on the lights and do... love things!
"It seems that I'm still not famous enough!" The beauty stuck out her tongue and introduced formally: "I'm Robin Rihanna Fenty, if you think it's too long, you can call me Rihanna...

I heard from my agent that the person who joined me in the endorsement was a handsome guy from the NBA. At first I thought the words were not true, but I didn't expect it to be true! "

It's still heavenly.

I just don't know how to fight.

Rihanna suddenly licked her tongue.

Since being beaten by ex-boyfriend Chris Brown in 09 and breaking up, Rihanna, who has left a psychological shadow, has never talked about a real heart-to-heart relationship in the past few years, all of which are kidney-related.

After having tasted the local taste, Rihanna suddenly wanted to challenge some exotic styles.

"You're Rihanna... and we're still doing endorsements together?"

Wang Zelin was taken aback. He didn't expect that the official Weiwei would arrange another person to speak with him, and the other person was Rihanna.

There are only two impressions of Rihanna Wang Zelin.

One is Lao Zhan's little fan girl.

The other is the dark scene where Du Xiaoshuai and Rihanna spray each other.

However, it is said that Rihanna herself is extremely accomplished in music, even a queen-level figure.

It seems that it is not a loss to speak for yourself and the other party!

"Oh, it seems that you finally remembered who I am!"

"Of course, you are a frequent visitor to the Grammys, maybe you don't know, I am your ball...cough cough, fan!"

Hey!
Only then did Wang Zelin speak. The person in front of him was not an NBA player, so he said it fluently.

"It's ok."

Rihanna smiled.

At this time Zhou Yang came out, followed by a black aunt.

Probably Rihanna's manager.

"Let's go, Zelin, after signing the contract, we can go straight to the shooting!"

"Ok!"

……

12 o'clock noon.

More than half of the filming of Wang Zelin and Rihanna has been completed.

The filming work will be so smooth, in addition to the professional team, it is also inseparable from the tacit cooperation of the two.

Even Wang Zelin was a little surprised!

But I heard the director said: between people, some people are not compatible with each other, while others are very compatible.

It's hard to find a place to reason about this kind of thing, but it really exists.

"Wang, I didn't expect us to cooperate so well for the first time. I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you again in the future!"

Rihanna was also a little surprised. In addition to the tacit understanding between the two, it was more because Wang Zelin kept a certain distance from her during the filming process, and there was no overstepping.

Actually, this is mainly because Wang Zelin doesn't like black girls.

However, when Rihanna thought about it, the people she photographed with in the past would have more or less physical contact. Wang Zelin's unexpected politeness reminded her of a word.

gentleman!

In other words, people in the Celestial Dynasty are all so shy.

"interesting!"

Rihanna smiled inwardly.

"Me too, it's a pleasure working with you!"

Reach out and don't hit the smiling person, Wang Zelin recalled.

Half an hour later, the filming was officially completed, and Wang Zelin and Zhou Yang wanted to leave.

But at this time, Rihanna stopped Wang Zelin.

"Wang, can we have a meal together? Look, it's already lunch time."

Rihanna said to Wang Zelin.

Wang Zelin looked at his watch, and it was true, so he nodded.

……

on the way back.

"Zelin, I can't tell, you think you're so lucky!"

Zhou Yang showed a strange (wretched) smile unique to people who have come here.

"Uncle, I have no feelings for black girls!"

Wang Zelin was speechless for a while.

There is one thing to say, as a man born and raised in the Chinese dynasty, his aesthetics are destined to be biased towards yellow and white people, and at worst, add a brown race.

Negro, he said he was sorry.

"Hey, it's the same when you turn off the lights!"

Zhou Yang smiled.

"I prefer to leave the lights on!"

"Ahem! Young people really know how to play!"

Zhou Yang said with deep emotion.

The two talked and laughed and returned to Portland.

……

In the alliance, there is an undercurrent surging at this time.

The end of the All-Star Game means that the trade deadline for this season is coming soon.

As long as they are a bit self-motivated and want to make a difference in this playoffs, no matter what, they must hurry up and take action, otherwise they will have no chance to strengthen.

While Wang Zelin was conducting business negotiations in other places, a team had already made a move.

The first team to reinforce instantly attracted the attention of the other 29 teams.

Nothing else, because the opponent is the famous Boston Celtics.

According to the New England Sports News Network report, in the face of extensive injuries this season, the Boston Celtics have paid attention to the former NBA player and the forward and guard swingman who played for Guangdong Hongyuan Club in the Chinese CBA League at the beginning of this season-Terrence Williams.

It is reported that there was a Celtics trial training process last summer. Williams has accepted a 10-day short contract and is very hopeful that he will make his debut in the Celtics away game against the Nuggets this Tuesday.

"He has played in the NBA. This is what impressed me the most." Green Army coach Rivers is most satisfied with Williams, mainly because of the opponent's NBA experience.

Fortunately, it turned out to be just a small fix.

After understanding the situation, the management of other teams breathed a sigh of relief.

Don't look at the Celtics' current record is only ranked seventh in the Eastern Conference, but they have a new Big Three combination of Rajon Rondo + Paul Pierce + Wolf King Garnett.

The bench also sits veterans like Jason Terry and Brandon Bass averaging about 10 points per game. In addition, there are Jordan Crawford and Avery Bradley, who have just been traded from the Wizards, two potential stocks from the 10-year draft.

If it weren't for the injury of the team's new core Rondo, which cast a shadow over the team, the Celtics, which reached the Eastern Conference finals last year, would never be the seventh place in the Eastern Conference.

If the green army's small fights can only be regarded as an appetizer, then it will be the turn of the hard dishes.

At 20 a.m. on the 10th, a three-way deal was officially announced. The three-way deal between the Milwaukee Bucks, Orlando Magic, and Charlotte Bobcats was as follows:

Magic send Redick, Gustavo Ayon, Ishmael Smith to Bucks for Doron Lamb, Tebias Harris and Benno Udry;
The Magic then sent Josh McRoberts to the Bobcats for Hakeem Warrick.

The dying struggle between the three fish bellies is nothing more than the following news.

Miami Heat-Memphis Grizzlies trade: Mark Peele revealed that the Heat have sent Pittman and a second-round pick to the Grizzlies in exchange for a trade exception.

While this is a small deal, it has big implications.

How much the defending champion Heat teammates are eager for a real center alliance, other teams have long been aware that they have been interested in Denver Nuggets center Mozkov before, but the search was fruitless.

It is worth mentioning that the heat and Grizzlies deal was discussed crazily as soon as it came out.

Pittman averaged less than 3 minutes per game this season, averaging 1.5 points and 1.8 rebounds per game.

Players with such performance can be regarded as trading chips and sent out in exchange for trading privileges, which is enough to make the Heat management extremely happy.

Through this transaction, the Heat not only got rid of Pittman, but also added a lot of bargaining chips for their recruitment during the offseason this summer.

The well-known yaohoo sports reporter Adrian An Wojnarowski said: "The Heat are already so strong, and the league can still agree to such a ridiculous deal!!!

See what Riley paid for?
A small player who averaged 1 point and 1 rebound per game, but in the end he got a precious trading privilege...

Is the league too partial to the Heat! "

After James made the 1.0 decision, the Big Three of the Heat became the target of public criticism.

But since the Heat won the opponent's second championship and James won the first championship in his career and became No.1 in active service, James seems to have gotten a private call from David Stern again, and the godson treatment has returned
For the Grizzlies, the reason why they are willing to trade Terry as a bargaining chip is purely helpless.

After sending away the head star Rudy Gay, this team, which is still expected to enter the playoffs, urgently needs to replenish its internal strength. In the absence of better options, Pittman, who is 2 meters tall, can be used.

After all, he has been in this fire for nearly three seasons, and this season's salary is only 85, and he is still young, so maybe there will be extra surprises.

The Grizzlies did not make any response to the heated discussions from the outside world, and the team management did not feel that they had hope of breaking out of the West.

After I die, who cares about the flood!

……

On the afternoon of the 20th, two deals surfaced in succession, involving the same team.

Portland Trail Blazers!

The first is a deal between Western Conference teams.

According to ESPN expert Mark Stein: The Thunder have traded Eric Maynor to the Trail Blazers.

Immediately after the Trail Blazers traded, domestic media from all walks of life couldn't wait to start digging deeper. Tianchao Sports Channel specially opened an exclusive column to analyze the pros and cons of the Blazers' trade.

Ke Fan, Yu Jia, Yang Yi, Ma Jian and many other famous commentators were present.

"Eric Maynor...one of the most pure point guards in the 2009 draft may be the "sleeper" of this point guard's big year!"

This is a true traditional point guard, which is rare in today's league. "

Ke Fan specifically chatted about the protagonist in this transaction.

Then, Yang Yi talked about his own opinion.

"First we'll see why the Blazers traded for Eric Maynor"

"Number one, the Blazers management made this deal for the sake of the team's second team...

埃里克梅诺本赛季场均上场时间10分钟，能够贡献2.8分2助攻，但他的三分命中率和罚球命中率分别有着32.6%和81%。

Secondly, his unique traditional point guard style of play is obviously different from the style of the Blazers' starting point guard Lillard. I think it is not a big problem for him to lead the Blazers' second team. "

Ma Jiandao: ...

~~~

~~~

~~~

Not long after the first deal, the Trail Blazers' second deal came out, and the other side was the Celtics.

The Trail Blazers sent backup center Meyers Leonard plus a second-round pick, while the Celtics sent guard Connett Lee.

Meyers Leonard, who is 2 meters tall, is a member of the Trail Blazers' rotation, averaging 16 rebounds and 5.53.7 blocks per game. He is also a member of the 0.6th draft and a first-round pick.

As Wang Zelin played better and better, Meyers Leonard's playing time continued to shrink, and his personal performance also declined, which made him very dissatisfied with the team's arrangements.

In this transaction, the Blazers and the Celtics can be said to have what they need. The former needs an outside shooter, while the latter needs an inside King Kong, so the two teams hit it off.

After returning to Portland, Wang Zelin knew that there was a personnel change in the team, and the league clicked on the Internet to open specific transaction information.

Eric Maynor doesn't have much impression, but Connet Lee and Wang Zelin still have some influence.

Generally speaking, as long as you have an impression of the players, the future generations should not be too bad.

Open the system space and check the information of Connet Lee...

In later words, it is a 3D player!
常年场均10分左右，巅峰赛季场均12分2.9篮板2.4助攻1.1抢断，生涯最大合同是和尼克斯队签订的4年价值5，000万米元的合同。

Wang Zelin also took a look at Connet Lee's three-point shooting percentage. The career average three-point shooting percentage is 38.8%, and the peak season is 44.2%.

It seems to have found a treasure!

　Hot pot and barbecue, the result is a day of diarrhea, lying in bed for a whole day today, no motivation to code, and now it's better.

　　I am going to work overtime tonight, and I will post 4700 words first, there will be more in a while, don't worry.
