The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 39

Zhang Xiaotian didn't enter the NBA through the draft, and his university was not outstanding, so he didn't even sign the lowest-level sneaker contract before, and he would be cautious in his first choice.

After all, it is difficult to repeat the performance of the 44-point night, even if he accumulates victory points and then buys a three-point rain card, it is the same before he was not noticed before he had a chance to explode.

After entering the league, through systematic training, his own strength is also improving, but this progress is very slow compared to skills, talent and hard work are not necessarily directly proportional, which is really a sad thing.

To make great progress, it may be a few years later. Zhang Xiaotian has also officially obtained a university diploma. He has made detailed plans for his career, and choosing a commercial endorsement is also part of it.

The sneaker contract is a must. Zhang Xiaotian let Eddie contact four American brands, one European brand, and three brands from the other side of the ocean.

If the price is about the same, you must choose a world-renowned brand. If the price difference is too large, you should make money first, and you can choose again after a few years.

Other aspects are a car brand, a suit brand and a beer brand on the other side of the ocean.

Zhang Xiaotian is very practical in his considerations, not to mention money, cars and suits are all useful things, and they won't have any bad effect on reputation, beer is the same.

As for those messy commodities, he doesn't consider them.

Besides these are some small business activities and endorsements in San Antonio, he also let Eddie know.

Zhang Xiaotian did not let these things affect his training. He has been following professional basketball since he was a child and has seen many negative examples. He understands what is the most important thing for an athlete.

On November 11, the Spurs sat at home to meet the challenge of the Nuggets.

This is the tenth game for the Spurs, and Zhang Xiaotian feels that he is in a good state without the exhaustion.

The Nuggets are a team with a lot of people who can play, but there are no absolute superstars. In addition, the players have good physical fitness, and any team can beat any team if they perform well.

In addition, Leonard suffered a small injury during training, and Zhang Xiaotian was appointed by Popovich to start.

Regarding the injury of his teammates, it has nothing to do with Zhang Xiaotian. Although he defends fiercely, it is basically a muscular confrontation, which mainly consumes energy. Leonard was not injured when confronting him, but a problem with his knee. .

Zhang Xiaotian will face Andre Iguodala, a versatile offensive and defensive player, in the starting lineup. He is mentally prepared for various situations.

Unexpectedly, the Spurs' insiders who had been struggling in the first few games started to show off their power. It is blamed for the Nuggets starting without a real insider. Kenneth Faried, the main player protecting the basket, is only 2 meters 03.

DeJuan Blair, who hasn't played very well this season, seized the opportunity and quickly made Faried two fouls to rest by relying on weight.

The inside had an advantage, and Danny Green got two consecutive open three-pointers from the outside, and the Spurs stunned the Nuggets all at once.

Zhang Xiaotian also seized the opportunity to hit a three-pointer, but his performance was just that. As soon as Ginobili made consecutive hits, the gap between the two sides went straight to 20 points.

In the second quarter, Duncan also showed his strength and hit a three-pointer at the buzzer, stabilizing the difference between the two sides at 21 points.

In this game, the Spurs were too strong in three-pointers, and Ginobili made five shots alone. There was really no chance for Zhang Xiaotian to show off. When the game entered garbage time in the fourth quarter, Zhang Xiaotian also enjoyed the treatment of the main player, that is, to check in early get off work.

He wanted to cry without tears, he really wanted to discuss with Popovich, let him play more in the fourth quarter, Eddie was talking to him about the endorsement, earning a lot of dollars in a year by earning points.

The Spurs won the game 126:100, and they remained unbeaten even though Leonard was on a truce.

[Help the team win ten games, complete the task, and reward a card pack at any time. 】

[Task: Show your sharpness and help the team enter the playoffs. 】

There is no surprise or disappointment, Zhang Xiaotian is already used to the existence of the system.

But after the loud Nuggets, Woolley found another opportunity to criticize him.

Because he only scored 9 points in this game, his performance after the start was even worse. The sunspots all said that Zhang Xiaotian showed his true colors and couldn't get on the stage.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't have time to take care of these for the time being, he returned to the small town after the training.

His first endorsement shoot has started, ahem, it's not actually a formal business event, it's to take some promotional photos for Emily's family farm.

He called and invited Yang Feiyu to play together. After sending the girl back to school that day, the two of them became boyfriend and girlfriend.

Faced with his invitation, Yang Feiyu readily agreed, and when it was almost time, Yang Feiyu realized that going to Zhang Xiaotian's house was to meet Zhang Xiaotian's family, and she suddenly became shy.

Yang Feiyu insisted on going back to prepare presents. Fortunately, they came here in Eddie's second-hand car, but they arrived smoothly after half an hour of tossing.

Yang Feiyu is dressed in casual clothes today, she looks like a gentle girl next door.

Seeing Zhang Xiaotian come back with his girlfriend, Zhang Dajun laughed from ear to ear.

But Zhang Xiaotian didn't expect that after Emily saw Yang Feiyu, the two women would inexplicably become hostile.

Emily's face was gloomy all the time, and Yang Feiyu's face was full of doubts. Zhang Xiaotian suddenly realized that today's occasion is really not suitable for bringing Yang Feiyu to play.

Unlike Emily, Keith felt more honored and called a group of old friends from the town.

Originally, Keith wanted to pay endorsement fees, but of course Zhang Xiaotian would not accept it. In the end, he, Eddie, and Yang Feiyu all got a lot of agricultural products presented by Geese, and everyone was very happy.

On the campus at night, Zhang Xiaotian and Yang Feiyu walked together for the second time.

"Zhang Xiaotian, I won't force you to ask about your relationship with that foreign girl. If I find you stealing food outside, hum..." Yang Feiyu waved her small fist.

"Does that mean you will feed me?" Zhang Xiaotian pretended to be surprised.

The little fist immediately hammered over, "Rogue."

Zhang Xiaotian understood, and immediately turned into a hooligan, hugged the girl into his arms, and made out with each other fiercely.

After a while, Yang Feiyu broke away with a blushing face.

When she got outside the dormitory, she turned around and shouted as she quickened her pace: "If you behave well, I will consider feeding you."

Looking at Yang Feiyu's devil-like smile, she is obviously a female hooligan.

Zhang Xiaotian's heart suddenly became hot, he needed to have his own house, at least he had to rent a bigger one first.

He yelled at Yang Feiyu who was still grimacing: "I want to tell you the truth, in fact, you are the foreign girl."

Yang Feiyu was taken aback for a moment and then laughed together with Zhang Xiaotian. The two were talking in Chinese, so they were not afraid of being heard by others. People in love are like this.
