The Point Guard is Here

After more than a month of absence, Fan Xi returned to the starting lineup.

Standing in front of him was his old opponent, the Eagles' meritorious point guard, Blalock, nicknamed 'Rogue'. When the man with a height of 183 faced Fan Xie again, he clearly felt that Fan Xi's strength was increasing.

Before, I was able to bully him a little with my body.

But now, Fan Xi's tonnage has surpassed him who is only 80 kilograms.

Of course, Blalock is not without skills. His breakthrough is very difficult for Fanxie to defend against. Speed ​​is his sharp edge. Fanxie can barely keep up, but the details are too poor.

This game was highlighted by Blalock many times.

Fan Xie still mainly plays in the pick-and-roll and split the ball, and Blalock also follows the defensive manual of other teams to defend Fang Xi with one step.

But Fan Xi was extremely decisive tonight.

In 28 minutes of playing, he took 16 shots, the most in his career. And concentrated in the long distance.

The shooting rate was terrible, only 5 of 16 shots were made, less than 30% of the shots, and it was almost open.

"It's just self-exposing."

Jeff Van Gundy said to Pat Riley, who was firmly seated in the military tent, in the fourth quarter: "We can't indulge him and play with him with the record."

Pat Riley asked him back: "Jeff, why can't we use our record to play with him? We are now the second in the Eastern Conference. Is there any difference between the second in the Eastern Conference and the seventh in the Eastern Conference?"

Van Gundy froze.

Of course there is a difference. Isn't the second in the Eastern Conference more prestigious than the seventh in the Eastern Conference? The second place in the Eastern Conference has home court advantage in the playoffs.

What Jeff Van Gundy saw was Van Heede's botched shooting.

But Pat Riley could see Van Dohee trying things out on the court and...he really improved. Pat Riley is good at looking at problems from a developmental perspective. He believes that there are still many potentials in Vanhee that can be tapped, so it is worth sacrificing immediate interests.

What's more, Riley didn't actually think about entering the playoffs in the upper half of his heart.

He is a wily old fox.

When he heard the news that Jordan was going to be back, the first thing that came to his mind was... hurry up and meet the Bulls.

Currently, the Chicago Bulls rank sixth in the Eastern Conference. After Jordan's comeback, his record may improve.

If the Knicks slide to fourth and fifth in the Eastern Conference, they are likely to encounter the Bulls.

Others were terrified when they learned that Jordan was back.

Only Pat Riley, the fortune teller, prefers to go to Tiger Mountain. He believes that Jordan, who has played baseball for two years, must not have returned to his best form, which is an opportunity for the Knicks.

Based on his understanding of Jordan, the sooner he meets Jordan, the better.

Because as the season progresses, the basketball god will gradually regain his feeling. When I meet him in the later stage, it is very likely that he will be able to play 80 to 90% of his peak state.

Most importantly, the Knicks need a series that takes out Michael Jordan to boost morale.

Therefore, when Fan Xi proposed that he wanted to start, he wanted playing time, and he wanted to level up.

Pat Riley didn't hesitate.

Not only because he regards Fan Xi as his own, but more importantly...it fits his plan.

However, what he didn't expect was.

In this game, the Knicks won.

And it was Fan Xi's quasi-lore.

Fan Xie only hit 5 goals in this game, but the last goal was a super long-range three-pointer. With his teammates trapped, he resolutely threw the basketball at the top of the three-point line.

His shot even drew laughter from the Atlanta Hawks players on the sidelines, but within a second, the laughter stopped abruptly.

No matter how much Fan Xi's shooting action is like a female basketball player,

But it goes in.

It rewrote the score to 112:110.

And after that, Vanhee used his long arms and legs to restrain the thief whose physical fitness was declining, and the thief's pass was destroyed by Starks.

The final whistle blew.

Fan Xi, who scored 13 points, 10 assists, 3 rebounds and 1 steal, was smacked by the big brothers. They were rough and didn't worry at all about touching the little tiger into an eye-catching bald tiger.

As the pet of the group, Fan Xi is also used to this kind of treatment.

At this time, he was smiling.

Because he got 320 points in this game.

It's the game with the most points he's ever scored.

The rules for accumulating points are based on playing time.

Fan Xie's statistical playing time in this game was 28 minutes and 24 seconds, but the actual game time exceeded 72 minutes, according to the NBA rules of 40 points every 30 minutes.

He scored 80 points in this game.

At the same time, because of his quasi-lore at the last moment, he unlocked the two medals of 'Buzzer Lore' and 'Turning the Tide' at the same time.

So, doubling twice is geometric doubling.

From 80 points to 160 points, then doubled to 320 points.

"It would be great if every game could be like this." Fan Xi thought in his heart.

In this way, maybe the "NBA Basic Breakthrough" can be unlocked without going to the playoffs.

Fan Xi's desire for strength has reached the level of a 40-year-old single woman.

Not to mention sitting on the ground and sucking soil, he is like a wolf and a tiger.

…

On the plane to Miami, Fanhee finally confirmed the 46-page contract through his notebook.

This contract was drafted by top law firms in Europe and the United States and top accounting firms on Wall Street. The teams of both sides were so penny-pinching that they basically couldn't figure out any words.

The two parties will sign a 10-year contract.

However, both parties have the right to jump out of the contract when the contract is completed in the fifth year.

In the first five years, Fan Xie's annual fixed endorsement fee was 600,000 US dollars. At the same time, he will have a new sub-brand signature shoe created by Fila for him.

If Fan Xie wins any of the best rookie, best rookie team, and All-Star team during the season, Fan Xie will automatically get the right to share. It is 10% of the sneaker profit share. Moreover, it is specially noted: not less than 1.4% of sales.

On this basis, if Fan Xifang enters the season's best team and best defensive team, the profit share of sneakers will increase by 10%. Doubled to 2.8 percent.

On the premise of completing the first two, lead the team to the finals and be elected the finals MVP. The sneaker profit share will be doubled again, and the sneaker profit share will double from 20% to 40%. Correspondingly, the bottom line proposed by Fan Xifang has also been multiplied: the share should not be less than 5.6% of sales.

Take sales of 100 million US dollars as an example, as long as Fan Xi enters the All-Star, then enters the best team in the regular season, and becomes the MVP of the finals. He can get at least 5.6 million US dollars.

The difficulty of these three items is very high, and Fila can be said to be well-intentioned.

However, the endorsement fee of 5.6 million US dollars is actually very high.

At the same time, if Fan Xie gets the player of the week, he can also get a cash reward of 50,000 U.S. dollars, and if he gets the best player of the month, he can get 100,000 U.S. dollars. The season assists, steals, scoring, and rebounding champions will be rewarded with 200,000 US dollars.

In addition, if you get the All-Star ticket champion, you will be rewarded with 300,000 US dollars. If you get the MVP in the All-Star Game, you will get a reward of 100,000 US dollars, and you will get a cash reward of 60,000 US dollars if you get any category award during the All-Star Weekend, such as dunk king and three-pointer king.

Get the MVP of the regular season and reward 1 million US dollars.

The contract is very detailed.

Most importantly, in this contract.

There is a very strong clause.

If Fan Xi wins the finals MVP or the regular season MVP consecutively in the first five years, he is eligible to choose to jump out of this contract, propose to establish a formally independent brand and become a shareholder, and the profit share in all subsequent years will not be less than 100. 40/perpetual contract.

This contract is very demanding and very challenging.

Essentially, this is a betting contract.

Fila took out his lifeblood and bet against Fan Xi... Of course, even if Fan Xi won the bet, they would not lose money, because once Fan Xi reached that level, even if they earned a little less, it would still be a huge amount.

Of course, Fan Xi didn't forget to be famous in the contract. Fanheid has the right to acquire the parent company first.

In case one day...the parent company, Fila, can't do it anymore, Fan Xi can still do a reverse takeover.

It's as if the famous VW bought Porsche.

Fan Xi closed the notebook after confirming that it was correct.

After getting off the plane, he will send a confirmation message to Sam Powell and Uncle Fan Le.

Uncle Van Leh played a crucial role in this negotiation: He got Madonna to mobilize resources to make it happen.

Madonna's professional team and the business lawyers and Wall Street elites she hired played a vital role.

For those, too, the contract is a bragging win.

Because they helped an unknown guy complete a contract beyond Michael Jordan.

As long as Fan Xie can achieve Michael Jordan's current achievements, theoretically, the wealth he can get will be several times that of Jordan. Even... dozens of times.

It was a wildly leveraged gamble.

And even if he loses, Fan Xi can still get an annual sponsorship of 600,000 US dollars in the first five years.

Why not do it.

Of course, what Vanhee wanted was more than a guarantee of $600,000 a year.

In fact, as long as he wants, he can ask for a five-year contract worth more than $7 million or even $9 million from Nike or Adidas.

But he didn't do that.

He knows where his limits are.

...

The New York Knicks won another victory in Miami Beach, and Vanheede was fine in this game, and his women's basketball style shot seemed to find a little bit of focus.

Although the fans in Miami made a lot of jeers when Vanhey shot in the first half, in the fourth quarter, Vanhey's two consecutive three-pointers made them shut up obediently.

Fan Xi played 25 minutes in this game and scored 15 points, 9 assists, 4 rebounds and 2 steals. Although he only made 6 of 16 shots, it is not beautiful.

But at least it is much better than the last game, and two consecutive three-pointers are indeed the key to killing the game.

This is also the reason why Fanhee scored 160 points in this game.

His two three-pointers unlocked the 'Murderous Heart' medal, which doubled his success.

Pat Riley was very satisfied with Vanhee's performance, and he was full of praise for Vanhee after the game.

When talking about Vanhey's weird shooting posture, he showed indifference: "No one will mock Barry's free throw posture... I believe that sooner or later, Jack will become a qualified shooter."

Fan Xi also expressed sincerely that he was just trying to figure out how to shoot quickly.

The current women's shooting will not be the end, and he will continue to improve.

certainly.

Reggie Miller told Fan Xie on the phone: "I think there are two ways to shoot. One is to pursue absolute shooting height, and the other is to pursue extreme shooting speed."

"Under the leadership of Michael Jordan, most guards are now pursuing absolute shooting heights, and they are looking for shooting points in confrontation. This requires strong coordination and waist and abdomen abilities, but you have none of these."

"You can give it a try, the extreme shooting speed. Maybe it can solve your current embarrassment."

Reggie Miller's words made Fan Xi seem to capture something.

He realizes that he seems to remember a shot that completely subverted the traditional way of shooting, but what is it?

He can't seem to remember.

Who can remember an absurd dream at the age of 8?

…

After the New York Knicks left Miami, they returned to New York, only to go to New Jersey the next night. The Nets lost coach Daly and European talent in a mess, and Kenny Anderson was also injured... They survived in dire straits, and New York fans even crossed the Hudson River to cheer for the Knicks at their home court unscrupulously.

It was as if there was only one team in the entire New York State.

In this regard, fans in the two major cities in the east and west are surprisingly similar. In Los Angeles, the Clippers are also inferior.

However, the regrettable thing is.

The Knicks lost the game.

Vanhey scored a season-high 28 points in this game, but he made 28 shots.

This is one of the keys to the Knicks' failure.

Another key point is that Patrick Ewing went home to rest because he found his knee hurt when he got up in the morning. There is also Anthony Mason, who is also resting for this game.

Therefore, Pat Riley simply let Fan Xie carry out his shooting test to the end.

Fan Xi was not ambiguous at all, he voted when there was an open spot, and voted when there was an open spot.

The shooting was so dark that Stephen Marbury on the sidelines couldn't bear to look directly at him.

He covered his face with his hands, and the big black brother standing next to him was very conspicuous.

Fan Xi has rarely seen such a dark black man, so black that he shines, he must have never neutralized his blood in three generations of his ancestors, pure African style.

After the game, Fan Xie invited Marbury to have dinner with the tall black man.

What Fan Xi didn't expect was... the system actually reminded him that this kid named Kevin Garnett was also a medal player.

oh my god.

Why are medal players not in the NBA?

Fan Xi was surprised.

Garnett told Fan Xie during the conversation that he will go to the University of Georgia with Marbury, and they will sweep the entire NCAA.

The heroic appearance is very similar to Fan Xi and Iverson at this time last year.

It's just...last year's Georgetown Twins didn't make up.

Can this year's Georgia duo succeed?
