I Don’t Want to be the Boss

　　 "Challenge the rat in the arena: Steve Nash training method has been completed for 12 consecutive days."

　　After a day off on the 11th, on the 12th, the Warriors once again ushered in the preseason game with the Lakers.

　　 and the Lakers will play a total of three preseason games, the last game is the last game of six consecutive guests.

　　 After playing the Lakers today, tomorrow I have to play the Clippers back to back.

　　 is different from the previous two games to test what level each player's ability has reached. This morning's tactical meeting emphasized tactical running position.

　　 By the time of the game, basically it is the other person who runs the position, and if there is a chance by tactics, he will vote for almost anyone.

　　 But basically, Ellis, who hadn’t played enough yesterday, went to Kobe, who hadn’t played enough.

Ellis scored 61 points with Reggie Williams, the key player today, Ellis scored 31 points, Reggie Williams scored 30 points, the two led the team to help the Warriors 113 to 99 Defeated the Lakers, who led the division with 37 points.

　　The Lakers are going to win the preseason...difficult...the Lakers lose three straight...

　　Curry playing time is still stable, playing 28 minutes, mainly responsible for opening up space to Ellis and Reggie Williams singles, scoring 11 points on 4 of 10 shots.

　　Sun Ce got 15 minutes playing time.

　　Sun Ce didn't waste any chance. Using Ellis or Curry's restraint, he scored 5 points, got 3 rebounds and 3 assists with his height and flexibility.

　　 got 5 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists in 15 minutes, which is not bad.

It's a pity that the free throws were a bit worse, only 6 free throws and 3 hits, mainly because his cut was too fast. The opponent's first choice when he got the ball was a foul. The preseason is so proud that the Lakers are inside, too lazy to find a way to deal with Sun Ce Cutting in, direct fouls, gave Sun Ce a lot of physical contact, he was estimated to have 60% to 70% of free throws, because of the only 50% of free throws due to the confrontation.

The playing time is not long, although the next game is to play the Clippers consecutively, or back to back, but coincidentally, the Clippers home is also at the Staples Center, there is no need to change the city, Sun Ce stays after the game to continue Add practice.

The training intensity and the number of training events given by the Nash training method have increased a lot, and it has been almost four months to get the Nash training method. Sun Ce is already accustomed to training under the kind of conditions that are near the limit of physical strength and successfully completed it. With the training arrangement of the Nash training method, as long as you go back to sleep, you can recover when you wake up in the morning.

　　 It's just that when training today, Sun Ce feels that there is always a bitter look... Turning around to see the picture of Ellis's hard training, he thinks it may be an illusion...

　　 No. 13 Warriors defeated the Clippers 91 to 77. Sun Ce got 18 minutes of playing time and scored 7 points and 5 assists. He still focused on passing, but he did not grab a rebound.

　　Watson and Curry performed well today. Watson scored 19 points and Curry scored 23 points, helping the Warriors to win three consecutive preseason games. The preseason record became 3 wins and 1 loss.

After playing four consecutive Los Angeles teams, on October 15th, the Warriors came to Sacramento and played the Kings. The protagonist became Curry vs. Evans. Curry played 21 minutes, 8 assists and 3 rebounds in 30 minutes. Evans played 35 minutes, 9 of 16 and 25 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists!

　　 91 to 103, the Warriors ended the three-game winning streak by the Kings.

　　Sun Ce played 11 minutes and got 11 points and 2 assists. Curry was very excited to see Evans. Today Curry is in charge of the main control.

　　Sun Ce finally saw Evans's ability evaluation. As a rookie, Evans's ability evaluation is A-level... comparable to Stephen Jackson's ability evaluation!

　　Thinking about Evans' future, Sun Ce felt a strong smell called "Rookie is the pinnacle".

　　The playing time schedule of each player in the preseason gradually stabilized, and the playing time of 16 players in the next game was relatively fixed.

　　Ellis, Stephen Jackson and Maggette basically play half a quarter to one game per game.

Curry's stable playing time of about 30 minutes. Although Bedlins made old Nelson feel desperate, old Nelson felt that he was unlucky. He encountered a player who broke out after a contract year and took a big contract, but 52 million in 6 years. It’s still useful, in case it feels like it’s getting back slowly, at least more pre-season games need to be tried, and Bedling’s playing time gradually increased to nearly 30 minutes.

　　Watson and Reggie Williams came on alternately. One person played, and the other person had no chance to play in the game that day. The Warriors are considering who is left.

　　 On Sun Ce's side, each game got 15 minutes to 20 minutes of playing time, very stable.

　　On October 18th, at 10 am, the Warriors came to Phoenix, the city where Sun Ce spent the longest time in the United States.

　　Before the Warriors arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel in Phoenix North District, Bill Duffy came to Sun Ce with a suitcase.

　　 arrived at the hotel, Curry saw that Sun Ce and Bill Duffy seemed to have something to talk about, and left the standard room where he lived with Sun Ce.

"Noah, I have performed well recently," Bill Duffy said as he took out four pairs of sneakers from the suitcase he brought. "Nike, Jordan, Reebok, Adidas, they all provided you with sneakers and potential new star sponsorship. , The price is the same, 150,000 yuan, you choose a pair you like."

　　Sun Ce looked at it, and none of the four pairs of sneakers were the signature shoes of one of the four brands.

Of course, these four sneaker brands will not only sell signature shoes, there are many other sneakers. The signature shoes and non-signature shoes are actually similar in process, but the signature shoes are more unique. It may be that the star personally participates in the design. Sell ​​more expensive.

　　 And these non-signed shoes also need to be promoted in order to sell better, so spread the net.

Generally speaking, rookies will get a decent endorsement fee. Playing in a brand’s shoes to play a game is also a way for the brand to “lasso” the rookie first. As long as the money is used, the brand will have Priority renewal rights. If this rookie comes out and other brands want to tap people, the brand that temporarily owns this rookie can renew the contract at the same price.

　　 Of course, signing such a contract is basically not a lotto show.

　　 The price difference between the inside and outside is also relatively large. The inside line is usually 50,000 US dollars, and the outside line starts from 100,000 US dollars.

　　Sun Ce picked up Air-Jordan without hesitation.

　　 Of course I want to choose Jordan! He now wears the Air-JordanXX1, which he bought in summer and was produced in 2006. UU reading book www.uukanshu.com

　　 "Bill, if I choose this, can I change them to XX4?" Sun Ce asked.

"Of course, this is just a sample. You can stay with these four pairs of shoes. The formal shoes will require them to measure your foot shape. You can ask them which shoes they want, and they will not restrict us to only wear them. Sneakers, it's just that we need to participate when the potential rookie is filmed." Bill Duffy explained.

　　 confirmed that temporarily signing Jordan's free new shoes for the first time, Bill Duffy's work today is over, Sun Ce signed the contract provided by Air-Jordan, and it was finished.

　　 This kind of potential rookie contract is a very common contract. At least 30 copies must be sent out every year. Each brand is used to giving the contract directly to the broker.

　　 The work was over, Bill Duffy was about to leave, and he was stopped by Sun Ce.

　　 "Bill, do you think I am really okay? Why did my playing time decrease? And it has been more than ten minutes?" Sun Ce hesitated for a long time, but asked this question.

"It's a good thing that the playing time is stable, Noah, this means that the team has a clear positioning for you. The next thing you have to do is to show your abilities as much as possible within the determined playing time! "Bill Duffy replied.

　　 "So it turns out! Thank you, Bill."

　　Sun Ce originally thought that his playing time was shortened from 26 minutes in the second game to 17 or 18 minutes in the next three games because he did not perform well enough.

　　Efforts...... Finally, I have gained something!

　　 Then you have to keep the stable playing time you get now!
