The Point Guard is Here
Seventy-nine: [The number one single player in the draft camp]
On the plane to New York, Sam Powell, who is two meters tall and weighs 260, vomited like a hippopotamus that had eaten too much.
Fan Xi finally understood...why this guy didn't want to take Fan Xi to try out.
This….
"That's just one aspect."
After Sam Powell returned to the hotel, he continued to vomit. That is to say while spitting.
"You have to trust my plan." Sam Powell said seriously.
After getting along for this period of time, Fan Xi believed in Sam Powell's character, which was purely a matter of IQ. Sam Powell just thinks that Fan Xi is now a rare commodity, and that Fan Xi is a character like Michael Jordan, so he should let those general managers come over to curry favor.
What kind of wickedness can a black hippopotamus have?
Fan Xi patted him on the shoulder and told him: You vomit slowly in the hotel, and you get used to it.
Then, he went to draft camp.
This year's draft camp has been upgraded and remodeled, and it is much more luxurious than last year in all aspects... After all, you have money.
The second season of any show is when it has the most sponsors.
This year the sponsor is the European brand, Adidas.
Adidas has been committed to taking the route of high school students, because they can't compete with Nike in the NCAA. (For a while, almost all high school talent was concentrated on signing with Adidas. Then...the league announced that high school students were not allowed to draft.)
The two promoters have also changed this year, from Isiah Thomas and Chuck Daly to head coach Jerry West and Wilkins. (Very representative, when Michael Jordan cannot come, at the shooting guard position, Jerry West is the one who can hold the field. Although the head coach Lenny Wilkins is not as famous as the coach Chuck Daly , but it is also one of the few people in the NBA who can be named a famous coach.)
The Smiling Assassin was so annoyed that CNN completely dominated the show that he even filed a lawsuit.
But recently, American Cable TV stated that the idea of the program was provided by Jack Fan, and if they want to pay copyright fees, they have to pay Jack Fan.
Fan Xi was dumbfounded when he saw the news on TV.
Then,
Steve Joyce called him and invited him to the final performance of the year. And told him that American Cable TV will pay him copyright fees at a price of no less than 600,000 U.S. dollars per year.
This money is like pie in the sky.
Fan Xi didn't expect that he could get such a good financial return just by coming up with an idea.
Steve Joyce could obviously pretend not to know anything.
It seems that Joyce is also a good person.
Joyce was indeed a good guy, but it was also because the Smiling Assassin was pressing too hard and asking too much.
In the capital market, there can be no purely good or bad people, everything is business.
Fan Xi and Steve Joyce met in the training hall, and the two still embraced warmly.
Then Joyce handed over the contract, which included a guarantee plus a share of the contract. Fan Xi took a closer look, and then called the lawyer of the Prince of Burgers, asking him to review the terms and make sure there was nothing wrong with it, before signing his name.
For this kind of money obtained out of thin air, Fan Xi had no reason to refuse.
"I hope you join the New York Knicks." Joyce brought new news to Fan Xie: "Dave has been fighting for a high draft pick, and he has been under great pressure to act for you. You know, Pat Riley doesn't seem that keen on you joining the Knicks."
After Fan Xi heard this, he frowned.
Pat Riley doesn't like me joining the Knicks? its not right.
He doesn't seem like a stingy person. He helped me a lot in the rescue of Iverson last year.
"I heard that you haven't received an invitation for trial training? Then you have to perform well in this performance." Steve Joyce continued: "This time, we still selected the five best performers Shooting guard. And eight stars from the NBA, plus you and Stephon Marbury."
"I hope you and Stephen are doing well. Your talent should be seen by the whole world."
Joyce said.
Fan Xi smiled and expressed his thanks.
For Fan Xi, this is indeed a very good performance opportunity. It's another nationally televised game with NBA stars and the best high school shooting guards in the country.
It's a lot better than going to tryouts. Because the actual combat is the most test of players, many players who are waiting for the draft, including Glenn Robinson and Grant Hill, want to participate in this event, but Steve Joyce is very stuck in the quota.
He doesn't want his platform to become a showcase for other rookies.
However, Fan Xi is different, he is one of the creators of the show in the legal sense.
...
The eight NBA players invited by Jerry West and coach Lenny Wilkins are: Kevin Willis, Sean Kemp, Scottie Pippen, Gary Payton, James Worthy, Dell Library Ryan, Dan Marley, and...Ervin Johnson.
When Magic Johnson appeared on the list, it caused a huge response.
Everyone knows that Magic Johnson has withdrawn from basketball due to AIDS. Although he has been trying his best to return to the NBA recently, it has always caused controversy.
Jerry West invited him to participate in this event, which can be said to be a wave of water testing.
But it still caused resistance from many people. What if there was bloodshed on the court and the blood of the two sides merged together?
No one wants to catch that damn disease, and it's through exercise.
The program team did a lot of certification before deciding on the magician. They consulted authoritative doctors, and communicated with participating NBA players and training camp members. Basically, everyone had no objection.
In addition, once the magician joins, it will inevitably arouse huge public opinion. How can the program group not eat this kind of traffic?
Originally, the second season of the program did not have as high ratings as the first season.
In the case of MJ Jordan's retirement, being able to invite another MJ can be regarded as the highlight moment of the program group.
Before Vanhey arrived, NBA players were divided into two groups.
Lenny Wilkins has Kevin Willis, Gary Payton, Dale Cook, and Scottie Pippen on the team. These players are all closer to him.
Jerry West took the Lakers route, Magic Johnson and James Worthy teamed up, plus Sean Kemp and Dan Marley.
Fanhee chose Wilkins' group.
The reason is... Stephon Marbury chose the Jerry West camp early.
Marbury always wanted to be a Laker.
The glorious history of the Lakers has always fascinated him, and most importantly...it seems that Jerry West's team has no single players, all of them are old, weak and sick. It was his turn to play.
At this time, Marbury didn't know that the top single player in the draft camp would join the Lakers phalanx!
