Basketball: Serious injury at the start!Turn on hell mode

After the game, Duke found Brand and had a friendly exchange with him.

Both of them have also experienced serious injuries of Achilles tendon rupture, and they cherish each other.

Iguodala also found Duke.

"Hey, rookie, you performed well today. Besides, I already have an answer to your question."

"I decided to let them call me Andre in the future, and the other one will be called old Andre."

Duke rolled his eyes.

After Andre Miller returned to the locker room, he also took out his mobile phone and entered Hong Kong Mo Wenwei's name.

This investigation shocked him, and he hurriedly called to ask if his father had a half-sister.

......

In the post-match press conference, Duke played with the microphone in his hand boredly, waiting for the reporter to ask questions.

"Duke, Randolph didn't appear in the starting lineup today. Is there any conflict within your team?"

Good guy, it's such a tricky question from the beginning.

"No, the atmosphere in our team is very harmonious. As for him not appearing in the starting lineup, I think it may be due to tactical needs."

"Duke, you scored 23 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists today. You performed very well, but your team lost. Do you think your teammates are very weak?"

Duke is speechless, what's the problem with this, he can't wait to tear down the entire Knicks team.

"We have all tried our best, but the overall strength of the 76ers is stronger than us, and they have played better than us."

Duke never mentioned the poor quality of his teammates, but he didn't deny it either.

......

After the game with the 76ers came to an end, the Knicks had 4 days of rest.

Duke is not in a hurry to go to training. Hard training needs to be combined with proper rest to have better results.

In his spare time, Duke picked up his mobile phone and checked Twitter, wanting to see what people from all walks of life think of him and the team.

Social media also has mixed praise and criticism for the Knicks, but it is still unanimously praised for Duke.

"The team lost and he didn't lose. Duke scored 23 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists."

"The Knicks locker room is chaotic, and well-known reporters have already reported that the Knicks management decided to trade Randolph."

"The gap in all directions, the 76ers completely abused the Knicks."

"23 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists! Duke is the veritable No. [-] pick."

Fans' evaluation of Duke is also very interesting.

"Duke will be New York's next big star, and his mental attributes are to be commended."

"Can't even beat Iguodala's garbage? Still a superstar? It's ridiculous."

"Is there any misunderstanding about Iguodala upstairs? Last season, he had 19.9 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.8 assists. You called him garbage?"

"Hehe, those who say Iguodala is rubbish don't understand the ball, right?"

"Beasley is not bad either, he scored 16 points in 21 minutes."

"Beasley is too lonely to go far."

"Too lonely? Kobe smiled and said nothing, and Marbury laughed and said nothing."

"Isn't anyone paying attention to the No. 13 pick Rose? 4 points, 6 rebounds and [-] assists in the last game are not bad."

Seeing the compliments from netizens, Duke felt elated.

......

Just as Duke was working hard, Bill Duffy called.

Duke was a little puzzled, why call him at this time?

"Hey, Bill, what brings you here."

Score's familiar voice came from the phone:

"Duke, you are free. I am exhausted from running up and down on your business."

Duke pouted, and mercilessly exposed his lie.

"Come on, Bill, if I make money, it means you make money. Come on, what's the contract?"

"Hey, I really can't hide it from you. This time it's a big contract, a sneaker contract."

Hearing this, Duke was shocked and lifted his spirits instantly.

Bill's voice continued to come from the phone.

"There are currently three companies that have made offers."

"The first is naturally Nike. They offered a five-year offer of 5 million yuan. As long as you sign this contract, you will be the biggest rookie contract signed by Nike after James and Durant."

"The second is Nike's deadly rival Adidas. Adidas offers you a six-year contract of 6 million yuan. The average annual contract amount is 4500 yuan lower than Nike's. As far as I know, their main target is not you, but It's Rose, the No. 50 pick this year."

"The third one is quite surprising to me. It is Anta from China. They also offered a five-year contract of 5 million. High, it is difficult to design high-level sneakers for you."

Bill Duffy said all the information in one breath, and then waited for Duke's instructions.

Duke fell into deep thought after hearing this.

Bill Duffy's meaning is obvious, and he personally prefers to sign with Nike.

This is also very understandable. Bill Duffy wants to get on the line with Nike through himself.

After all, he has more than one player under his banner, and he also hopes that his players can get a good sneaker contract.

As long as Duke can sign with Nike and perform well in the later stage, then he will be one of Nike's most important stars.

At that time, the importance of Bill Duffy will also increase, and he will be able to win a lucrative sneaker contract for his players.

As for why Nike?

Because he is the overlord of sneakers in the basketball world, he has invested the most in basketball, and he has signed the most basketball stars under his banner.

And Adidas's main focus is on football, and it doesn't care much about Duke. Bill Duffy naturally won't put his hopes on them.

In addition, Anta is not strong enough in financial strength, and there is no comparison with the other two.

Regarding Bill Duffy's small thoughts, Duke didn't see through them, and he acquiesced in his actions. After all, it didn't damage his interests.

Among the choices of these three sneaker companies, Adidas and Anta were directly eliminated by him.

Needless to say, Adidas, the first choice is Rose, so if you sign it yourself, doesn't it mean that you are lower than Rose?What can't be tolerated!

Anta is a problem with the quality of sneakers. If it is Anta ten years later, it can be considered. As for the current Anta, forget it. I don’t want to be injured again.

Then only Nike can be chosen, but the contract amount does not meet Duke's psychological expectations.

Thinking of this, Duke also had a plan.

"Bill, don't be in a hurry. I am very confident in my strength. Let's hang them up first. They will naturally be the ones who are in a hurry."

"In addition, I hope that some betting agreements will be added to my contract, such as winning the rookie mvp, winning the mvp within the contract period, the championship, etc. The betting agreement, the more the better, the guarantee amount of the contract can be lower , but the content of the VAM agreement and the amount must be more.”

Bill Duffy was a little hesitant. Although he had confidence in Duke, he didn't know that Duke had a system. It would be a big loss if he couldn't get it out.

Seemingly aware of Bill Duffy's suspicions, Duke continued:

"Bill, believe me, I know my own state much better than you, I will get those things sooner or later!"
