The Point Guard is Here
Chapter 302: Fan Xi wants to be re-elected, but it’s not that easy
The CEO of Fila was furious in the office, he was sad that this was happening.
He called out the general manager who was responsible for signing the contract with Fan Xi.
He asked why the general manager would formulate such terms, why he was encouraged to become the boss, and why he was even given priority to counter-takeover the head office.
The general manager was also very sad. He thought to himself that it was you who decided on this contract. Although you are Italian, you can't be so helpless.
And...he said weakly: "I never dreamed at the time that he would have the opportunity to win two Finals MVPs and win consecutively. Michael Jordan was not so outrageous. He never entered the Finals in the first five years of his career. "
His words brought a sense of freshness to the dull conference room.
Indeed, the terms of the acquisition aside. Fanci has indeed brought unexpected gains to Fila, and if Fanci wins the Finals MVP again, the market value will further expand.
This signing has brought more abundant market returns than the signing of Grant Hill, even though Grant Hill is the All-Star vote winner and the recognized successor to Jordan.
But...it is a recognized fact that people like Fan Xi more and are more willing to pay for Fan Xi.
It would be nice if there wasn't this damn clause.
This is what everyone thinks psychologically.
etc?
Does it mean that as long as Jack fails to win the second Finals MVP, that clause will expire, and we can continue to use little Jack's influence to make big money? We can give Little Jack another generous sponsorship contract of five million US dollars a year, or even eight million US dollars a year!
President Fila had an idea.
Then he asked these executives, what can be done to prevent Jack from winning the Finals MVP?
Italians really don't know much about basketball.
"As long as the Bulls win," the general manager replied weakly.
"How can the Bulls win?" President Fila continued to speak naively.
"Disrupt Jack's preparations, release the news, stimulate Jordan, make Jordan crazy with jealousy, and make Jordan crazy!!"
The general manager understands basketball better and Jordan better.
So, they discussed it and made a decision quickly.
Decided to release the matter of this clause to make Jordan, a guy who is naturally jealous and proud, go crazy and devote himself more to the game. It is best to block Fan Xi inhumanely and let Fan Xi's data drop. In this way, even if the Rockets win the championship Champion, Fan Xi still couldn't win the finals MVP.
After this discussion.
The general manager was a little depressed. He was thinking: If we do this, we will do something unjust and we will be killed. Jack is our spokesperson.
well! After all, it is profit that harms others.
…
Fan Xi made a brief appearance on TV. He was not very interested in reporters' praise. Although it was true that he had set a series of records, he did not want to praise himself too much.
"This is all the credit of my teammates. If they hadn't created space for me, my shot would not have been so easy."
Fan Xi made a humble statement.
Then, he also praised Kendall Gill's amazing sense of smell. He said that the victory was entirely due to Gill.
Fan Xi is not the kind of person who takes all the credit on himself.
That's why he's so beloved by his teammates.
Of course, even he himself cannot erase his own achievements. Everyone saw with their own eyes that the last offense was completely created by him. From the moment he got rid of Jordan, to attracting Pippen and Rodman, to the final pass, it was all done in one go.
"Pippen is hurt."
This was the news that Fanci brought back to the locker room. He told the players: "Pippen was not performing. His injury is very likely to be very serious. It is tempting for the Bulls to deliberately put him on the court, but I was told." Seeing through it, that’s why the temporary change of tactics happened.”
Fan Xi explained the reason for the final attack to his teammates.
Fan Xi has this kind of character. Even though he created a buzzer beater, he still told his teammates why they did what they did and why they changed their tactics.
This is a deep sense of responsibility.
It is also a manifestation of leadership temperament.
After hearing Fan Xi's judgment, the solemn expressions of the Rockets players became somewhat relaxed.
Because, before Fanci returned to the locker room, news came from the hospital... Olajuwon had a fracture... It was not an ordinary bone fracture, it was a broken bone, and surgery had been performed quickly.
Olajuwon can't come back.
When this news lingered in the locker room, all the Rockets staff, who had been in the joy of winning the game before, fell into a haze.
Everyone knows that Olajuwon is the backbone of the Rockets. Without him...more than half of the tactics in the tactical manual have lost their effect.
No matter how strong Fan Xi's tactical ability is, even if Barkley returns to 80-90% of his peak level, even if Glider's injury is close to being healed... But, they are just the icing on the cake.
Rudy Tomjanovich knows this very well.
Is it really necessary to create the shameful and humiliating result of leading 1:3 only to be counterattacked?
At that time, Rudy even covered his face with his hands in frustration.
And now, Fan Xi brought news... Pippen was injured, and it looked very serious.
So...it seems that there is still more to fight.
After all, Pippen is also very important to the Bulls. Without him, Jordan would be unable to thrive alone. He never crossed the three mountains of the Pistons.
But... Pippen seems to be having a hard time holding on. Will he call a truce?
No one is sure.
At this time, Fan Xi also played a role in stabilizing the morale of the military.
He clapped his hands and used the sound to silence everyone.
"No matter what, we have come this far. The darkness before dawn is the most unbearable, cold, biting, and as heavy as the iron curtain. But as long as we have faith, it is not impossible. At least compared to the bull, we only need to win Once is enough!”
"Never despair before dawn, fall before the sun rises!"
Fan Xi played a role in stabilizing the situation at this time.
Then, Barkley and Glider, the two former bosses, also stood up and made inspiring remarks.
The Rockets' morale is rising.
Rudy Tomjanovich, at the urging of his public relations manager, took Gil, the game-winner, to the press conference.
Fanci, Barkley, and Drexler returned to the court as usual to continue training.
Olajuwon's injury was a major change for them.
They must carry it.
Tonight, they showed the most focused mentality in their career. They wanted the championship so much.
And tonight, their additional training was the most effective, and their tacit understanding rose rapidly.
…
Jennifer Aniston was due to return to New York that evening, so she was very busy right now. Because of the continued popularity of the "Friends" series, her popularity has reached an incredible level and she is a true national girl.
However, Madonna retained her.
She said to Jennifer in a woman's way: "We haven't seen each other for so long, don't you want to stay with Jack for a while? I don't think one night can offset your longing for a long time in the future."
Jennifer was easily convinced.
Women are more addictive creatures than men.
They realize that men are no match for them.
So, she stayed.
And at Madonna's suggestion, she wanted to give Jack a surprise.
…
Fanshi stayed in downtown Houston that night, and Barkley and Glider also checked into the hotel with him. They had the consciousness of eating, living and training together.
For them, this is really the closest to a championship in their careers.
More importantly, this is the only time in their lives that they have a chance to beat Jordan.
How could they not try their best?
So, that's why they train until three in the morning.
If there are no accidents, they will stay together for the next three days until the fifth game.
Because the finals are in a 2-3-2 format, the next home game is still in Houston.
To a certain extent, this format is more beneficial to teams with lagging records.
So, this is where Phil Jackson aired his grievances at the press conference.
If Houston wins its third home game, then... the Bulls' season is over, and many of their players won't even have to return to Chicago.
However, for the Chicago Bulls.
A piece of 'good news' was finally confirmed early the next morning. Olajuwon was injured and had surgery overnight, so there was no way he could return to the game.
This relieved the Chicago Bulls.
They had a meeting the next morning.
The team doctor also participated.
Because it involves very important strategic deployment.
Will Pippen play or not?
Pippen has always had problems with his lumbar spine and has suffered from back injuries throughout his career.
The moment Olajuwon fell to the ground at the same time as him was so hard that the bones in Olajuwon's thick arm were broken. One can imagine how serious the same force was on Pippen's fragile lumbar spine.
Last night, Pippen went to secretly undergo an MRI, which showed that his lumbar disc herniation was very serious.
He even slept on his stomach while the Chicago masseuse worked on him throughout the night.
The advice given by the team doctor was to have Pippen take a break and be reimbursed for the season.
But this is certainly not realistic.
General manager Krause won't agree, the boss won't agree, and even... Jordan won't agree.
Jordan is a winning maniac.
Although he has now broken his golden record of never having a tiebreaker in the finals, he is determined to break the miracle of 1:3 counterattack that has never happened in the history of the finals.
For him, as long as it is a miracle, he wants to create it.
Who makes him the god of basketball?
"Then, let him rest for at least one or two games." The team doctor took a step back and said: "At this time, if Pippen is blocked and allowed to play, his entire career will be ruined."
This is a responsible team doctor.
However, Krause is a stingy general manager.
He hopes the team can return home.
Although the salary Pippen took from the Bulls was pitifully small, he still wanted to squeeze Pippen.
He said: "Is it really that terrible to impose a lockdown?"
This fat guy is a labor-exploiter at heart.
Jordan frowned.
He and Klaus had always disliked each other, but this time, he was surprisingly silent.
Because he felt that Pippen could still persist.
The God of Basketball has always been the kind of person who believes that 'perseverance' can conquer everything. He believes that as long as you are determined enough, nothing is impossible.
This harsh approach makes him a bit unhuman, but in fact, if it were him, he would also fight in isolation.
Just like in ancient China, Zhang Chun and Su Shi were traveling. They looked at a cliff and said they wanted to inscribe on it. However, Su Shi did not dare to go up, and Zhang Chun went. Su Shi said to Zhang Chun, you will definitely be good at killing people in the future, because you don't take your own life seriously.
Jordan is like Zhang Chun. He thinks that what he can do, Pippen can do too.
But Pippin gritted his teeth and looked at the Zen Master.
The Zen master seemed to have caught this signal.
He said Pippen's next game is to be determined.
He started Steve Kerr.
Then discuss tactics.
After discussing tactics, the team doctor was asked to prepare the sealing injection.
The Zen master always thinks twice when doing things. What if... the Rockets and the gang have a miracle under the leadership of little Jack? That guy Little Jack is so insidious and unpredictable that you must guard against him.
Phil Jackson has a strong defensive mentality against Fanshie.
At this time, Jordan received the fifteenth call from his agent.
He finally couldn't bear it anymore. He pressed the answer button and turned on the speakerphone. He wanted to show his authority in front of everyone. He shouted: "David Falk, if you don't have a reasonable reason, I will fire you." !”
Falk was stunned on the other end of the phone for a moment.
Then everyone heard his trembling voice.
"Do you know the contract between Little Jack and Fila? If Little Jack wins the consecutive Finals MVP, he will get absolute control of the sub-brand and can also reverse-purchase Fila's parent company. This is unique in history. The contract is far more than your contract with Nike. Now, you must stop him! Once he succeeds, you will no longer be unique..."
David Falk's voice is fast and loud.
The conference room was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.
Jordan was tempted to turn off the speakerphone in the middle of his sentence.
But it was too late.
If he did that, he would appear guilty. He could only keep calm and let Falk finish.
Then he said, "I know."
hang up the phone.
Although Jordan tried his best to show calmness, he seemed to have a calm face.
However, the trembling of his eyebrows still made his jealousy clearly visible.
He was surprised, he was shocked, he was extreme, he was crazy.
He doesn't allow anyone in the NBA to be better than him.
At this time, Dennis Rodman stood up and said: "Don't worry, Michael. We will help you organize little Jack to win the Finals MVP."
"Moreover, little Jack will definitely not be able to withstand this temptation. In the absence of Olajuwon, he will inevitably compete for data."
"And I believe there will be people in the Rockets who will be jealous of Jack and will sabotage this unprecedented contract."
"No one wants to see others living a better life than themselves."
Dennis Rodman analyzed it with his bad-guy logic.
This logic is in line with everyone’s thinking.
Even the Zen master, who is good at playing with people's hearts, nodded repeatedly.
He asked Jordan to relax. It would not be easy for Fan Xi to win again.
