NBA: James wants to team up with me

第100章耐克5年5000万，阿迪6年7700万，还要继续等？

The Lakers' opponent in the second round of the playoffs was the Sacramento Kings, who defeated the Dallas Mavericks 4:1.

Although Nowitzki scored a team-high 26.6 points and 11.8 rebounds in the series, and even averaged 2.6 blocks per game, this softie who is always criticized for his style of play played very hard in this series.

However, the Mavericks clearly have a number of outstanding stars, but in the playoffs, Nowitzki's most effective assistant is actually the undrafted 03 class, Marquis Daniels.

In 5 games, Daniels averaged 15.8 points, 6.2 rebounds per game, and shot 42.7% from the field. He is the most stable scoring point for the Mavericks except Nowitzki.

As for everyone else…

Nash had 13.6 points and 9 assists, and his shooting percentage was only 38.6%. The Mavericks' offensive rhythm obviously did not meet the playing style of this top point guard in history.

As for Michael Finley, Antoine Walker, Antoine Jamison and other players who have been selected as All-Stars, their performances were mediocre, so much so that the Mavericks collapsed when facing the Kings, who also focused on offense, 4: 1 was eliminated miserably.

As for the Kings, they are also old rivals with the Lakers.

During the Lakers' three consecutive championship seasons, they faced the Kings directly in the playoffs in two seasons. In the 01-02 season, the Kings' Princeton system was fully developed and their combat effectiveness reached its peak. They fought the Lakers in seven games in the Western Conference Finals and almost defeated the Lakers. Overturned to the ground.

And this series is also the most controversial one in the OK combination dynasty. In the G6 game, the Lakers, who were already 2:3 behind, were obviously taken care of by the referees. They took 40 free throws in the whole game. You must know the future postseason of the Lakers and Warriors. Throughout the entire series, the Lakers' most free throws were only 42.

In the 22-23 season, the league's offensive pace was outrageously fast. It was not the positional battle-based game it was in 01. There were only four teams in the league that averaged over points per game in the regular season.

Therefore, G01 in 02-6 is also known as the blackest whistleblower in the Western Conference Finals, which completely extinguished the Kings' championship hopes.

However, three years have passed, and times have changed. The Kings' lineup has changed a lot, and it no longer has the dominance it had in the 01-02 season. Although the Lakers' OK combination is much weaker than it was then, the team's lineup has added the Kings After Chong, Malone and Payton, they are obviously stronger than that period.

The two old enemies met in the second round, and most people agreed that the Lakers were more likely to win and advance to the Western Conference Finals.

The first game of the series between the two teams will start on May 5, and the venue is still the Staples Center, the Lakers' home court.

As the Lakers, who ranked first in the league with 66 wins in the regular season, they have absolute home court advantage no matter they face any team.

This game was also broadcast live across the ocean in China.

Dayao's Rockets were defeated by the Timberwolves 4:1 in the first round without any surprises.

Garnett, who was at his peak, was indeed amazingly strong.

5场比赛场均可以砍下25.8分14.8篮板7助攻的数据，同时还有1抢断与2封盖。

In the game, Dayao had nothing to do with Garnett.

Although Dayao at this time has not yet reached the tonnage of the future, his mobility is still completely incomparable with Garnett. The mobility of the latter is comparable to that of a defender, which makes Dayao exhausted in every game and consumes serious physical energy. In 5 games The game averaged only 15 points and 7 rebounds per game, and his performance was not satisfactory.

After the Rockets were eliminated from the playoffs, the only thing Chinese fans could watch was Wang Chong.

Although Da Zhi's Heat entered the second round, Da Zhi himself had no chance to play and remained on the bench all year round.

As for the Raptors that Daba joined this year, they didn't even make the playoffs, so there's no need to watch.

<divclass="contentadv">When all three serious Chinese players were eliminated from the playoffs, the Chinese fans naturally turned to support Wang Chong. Even though Wang Chong is a Chinese-American, he still has the Chinese spirit flowing through him. Compatriots with national blood, do you have any problem supporting your compatriots?

Not to mention this era, even ten years later, when the Internet is developed and all kinds of trolls are rampant, Jeremy Lin still gains a large number of Chinese fans after playing, allowing him to gain fame and wealth that are completely inconsistent with his own strength. .

Even Jeremy Lin is like this, let alone Wang Chong, who has a higher starting point and has far higher achievements than Jeremy Lin. His number of fans in China is second only to Dayao, and he is already very popular.

A large number of domestic manufacturers are trying their best to contact Wang Chong to fund him for commercial endorsements. Unfortunately, they do not have Wang Chong's contact information, and they even find Dayao to help connect them through connections.

Making money is naturally a good thing, but Wang Chong feels that the time is not mature enough now.

Commercial endorsement is not as simple as signing a contract and getting paid.

Signing a contract also means that there are conditions, such as shooting commercials, conducting commercial activities, etc.

For Wang Chong at this stage, the right answer is to focus more on the game and produce more explosive data performance.

After winning the championship with the team this season, he will have a lot of time to make money during the offseason.

In fact, not long ago, Nike and Adidas could no longer hold back, and both provided him with sneaker endorsement quotes.

I think before Wang Chong joined the league, Nike offered him a six-year contract worth 6 million yuan, but Wang Chong rejected it because it was too cheap.

Only half a year has passed, and Wang Chong's net worth has experienced several surges.

At present, the latest offer contract offered by Nike for Wang Chong has reached the level of 5 million for five years.

In 03, this was already a very high offer. Even for the popular players Kobe Bryant and Carter, their sneaker contracts were only 5 million for 4500 years and 5 million for 4000 years.

As a competitor of Nike, Adidas focuses more on football, so it is much inferior to Nike in terms of the number and quality of basketball stars it has signed. However, in terms of wealth, Adidas is no worse than Nike.

Kobe and Garnett are now Adidas' top players.

We also see the commercial value behind Wang Chong. Adidas offered Wang Chong a price of 6 million yuan for six years, an average of 7700 million yuan per year, which is 1283 million yuan higher than Nike per year.

From Wang Chong's start, his sneaker contract directly surpassed the two most popular players in the league, and he was second only to James among the 03 rookies. His agent Thomas was dumbfounded.

Only then did he finally understand why Wang Chong had the courage to refuse Nike's multi-million-dollar sneaker contract.

After waiting for more than half a year, Wang Chong has really made a lot of money. Now Wang Chong can get 1283 million in a year. Compared with the 6 million in the previous six years, it is a huge difference!

Because of this, when Wang Chong faced two large contract offers with an annual salary of tens of millions from Nike and Adidas, he calmly chose to reject them and expressed his hope to continue discussing the contract issue after the end of the season. Although Wang Chong's courage was once again He was shocked, but Thomas did not question Wang Chong's choice this time.

Thomas, who signed Wade a sneaker contract with an annual salary of only $40, was not worthy of questioning Wang Chong.

Especially now that Wang Chong and Wade are both worth their money, Wade's 40 sneaker contract that year has made both Wade and Thomas regret it.
