Basketball's best forward and guard

Chapter 54 54 [Besides Basketball]

Before the start of the semifinals between the Spurs and the Trail Blazers, Jiang Hao led another wave of public opinion.

In terms of preparation, the first episode of the inspirational documentary "Haoyue" co-operated by Jiang Hao and Tencent Sports was officially released in China on the other side of the ocean.

As the name suggests, the so-called "Haoyue" is an integrated documentary about Jiang Hao's entire life made by Tencent Sports.

The entire [Haoyue] is divided into 6 episodes. Judging from Jiang Hao's current achievements in the NBA, he can barely film the third episode.

Therefore, when the two parties were cooperating, they directly signed a 20-year long-term contract. That is to say, the last episode of [Haoyue] will be the time when Jiang Hao officially quits the NBA and ends his career.

The reason why Jiang Hao and Tencent Sports decided to cooperate was not that this cooperation would bring him much economic benefit.

In the words of Rich Paul, all of this is a kind of foreshadowing, he is to let Jiang Hao keep the flow.

If it is to make money, why not publish a book directly?
There is an online literature website in China that has contacted Rich Paul, and they hope to buy out the copyright of Jiang Haofu's autobiography.

However, it was rejected by Rich Paul. What a joke, buying out the copyright is almost impossible in the United States. No one is so stupid.

"China is still lagging behind," Rich Paul said with emotion.

Of course, he did not agree to that website, and it was also because he was not sure whether Jiang Hao would really like to publish his autobiography in the future. You must know that not all NBA players like to do this. Besides, this year is only Jiang Hao’s first entry into the NBA. Years, it's too early to think about these things.

"I like writing, Rich, you know? In the NCAA, whenever I have free time, I always tap the keyboard, that is my biggest hobby besides basketball"

Rich Paul did not expect that Jiang Hao on the phone would take the initiative to say this.

"Really? Li, writing and basketball. Frankly speaking, I have seen many players who like basketball and rap, but I have never seen you like this."

"So, now that you've seen it, Rich, do you know Chinese web novels? Fantasy, fairy tales, and cities are really great"

Talking about novels, Jiang Hao suddenly became interested, which caught Rich Paul a little off guard. Every time he talked with Jiang Hao, the two were basically talking about work. Jiang Hao had never shared his work with him so actively. other things.

"It seems that writing is indeed your favorite. However, I probably understand that the writing you are talking about is not realistic literature like [One Hundred Years of Solitude]. On the contrary, it should be a kind of light-hearted online novel."

Rich Paul knows that in the United States, there are also online novels.

"It does, but honestly, I love this kind of writing"

"So Jiang, do you have any masterpieces? I mean, don't you love writing very much in the NCAA?"

Rich Paul was interested. As a shrewd agent, he never allowed himself to miss business opportunities.

"I haven't officially published it, because I am Chinese, and it is too troublesome to register and verify the author's information in the United States. However, I have a manuscript. It is an urban novel with a Chinese style of 200 million words."

Jiang Hao laughed, this may be the most important thing in his college days besides basketball.

"So Jiang, you can trust me, I will let you see your work on the Chinese Internet as quickly as possible, it must be worth looking forward to"

Half an hour later, Rich Paul in Shanghai, China received a folder from Jiang Hao, which contained the things he needed.

.........

For Jiang Hao, who is in the Moda Center at the moment, what he doesn't know is that when the referee blows the whistle to officially start the game, on the other side of the ocean in China, China's largest online novel website has his works The release has officially started.

And what he didn't know was that when he hit his first shot on the court, his online novel [Rebirth to be a Rich Man] instantly attracted crowds on the Internet in China.

In the Moda Center, Jiang Hao pushed forward with the ball panting. The Trailblazers fulfilled their pre-match promise. For Jiang Hao, they have given enough respect to Jiang Hao from the beginning of the game, and even gave Jiang Hao With the same respect as Leonard, as long as Jiang Hao holds the ball, he will inevitably be double-teamed.

That's right, that's it. Although the game started only 8 minutes ago, the Blazers used a powerful press to make Jiang Hao completely fall into the rhythm of exhaustion.

Maybe until this moment, Jiang Haobai realized what an NBA-level playoff game is.

From this perspective, the Houston Rockets' defense is indeed not worth mentioning.

Of course, Jiang Hao's performance was tough enough. Even though he encountered a strong defense from the beginning of the game, his shooting was still accurate, and he insisted on constantly threading the needle through the opportunities in the cracks to maintain the team's offensive and defensive policies.

After playing 8 minutes in the first quarter, Jiang Hao's statistics looked pretty good, with 8 points and 3 assists, not much worse than Damian Lillard of the Blazers.

From the Blazers' point of view, this is not the result they want. Their strategy against Jiang Hao today is actually very simple, that is to use a crazy first quarter game to completely smash Jiang Hao's belief.

That's what they planned, and that's what they did.

But Jiang Hao's coping ability was completely beyond their expectations. As a rookie, Jiang Hao should have been completely stunned like the Trail Blazers expected, but this was not the case. Jiang Hao's reaction was like a veteran, a Like a star player, he insisted on carrying it. Not only that, he can also make a counterattack.

This is the most hopeless.

"Coach, I don't know if the rookie on the opposite side is at the end of his battle? But I want to say that this game is far from over, we can't continue to fight like this, otherwise, even if we get rid of that rookie, we will lose game because the Spurs don't just have one No. 35 pick"

During the timeout, Damian Lillard found head coach Stotts.

As the leader of the team, Lillard must keep his mind calm at all times. Although he knows that the Spurs No. 35 is a great threat, he also knows that the Spurs No. 35 must be given enough pressure in the game. If the rookie is killed, the team must immediately change its strategy. Otherwise, as he said, even if they finally get rid of the rookie, they still have a high probability of losing the game. In the final analysis, the rookie is at best The Spurs' third home, they also have Kawhi Leonard, they also have LaMarcus Aldridge, and more importantly, they also have Gregg Popovich.
