"Hey! Kyle! Morning! Kyle came to the gym as usual, and Joey greeted him with enthusiasm.

"Uh-huh! Good morning. Kyle wasn't in a good mood, but he still smiled. Half past five! It's so early!

Now the public opinion orientation is very unfavorable to Under Armour and Kyle, they are defenseless, and Purne is also confused, he thought that there would be a large layer of negative impact, but he definitely didn't expect it to be so violent, Under Armour and Kyle are together, almost full of black spots, sprayed by everyone, and there are very few people who wish congratulations. And the company's image has a tendency to collapse violently, and it is a big mistake!

What's the problem? Under Armour is weak and doesn't have enough influence, Kyle is a rookie, and his performance is not convincing enough, the so-called big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, they infringe on the interests of some people. But Purran's mind still can't think of an effective way to deal with it, it's just a no-brainer, who makes others speak lightly, can only make the company desperate public relations, can save some image and popularity, besides, the rest can only be handed over to Kyle.

As long as Kyle continues to be strong, and then gives Kyle enough momentum, re-establishes his image, and then vigorously publicizes, and builds the company's brand with this, this dead end can be broken, and maybe they can take advantage of this strong rise, after all, they are now very famous, of course! is negative. But if you can reverse it in one fell swoop and cover these black spots, who can say something? Everything is based on strength, for example, Kyle is an All-Star, this is an opportunity to slap the face, and when the time comes, Under Armour's Kyle-designed sneakers can take advantage of the situation to log in, which can maximize fame, and the stage of publicity is Kyle's first Star Game trip.

The question is, can Kyle do it? Kyle said there was no doubt about it, and Purrank, who had made sure and got the exact answer, left satisfied, ready to lay out.

Kyle's upset mood is the ruthlessness of Nike and Adidas, fuck your uncle, when you come to ask for a contract, you are polite and humble, and you are pretending to be praise and amazement. Kyle turned around and signed, and in the end, they immediately jumped out and tried desperately to discredit him, and it was almost to death, even pulling out his substitute Harry in college. But that's just off the court, and Kyle also feels that as long as he performs well on the court, everything will not be a problem, and everyone will obediently shut up. So Kyle came early again today, but he didn't expect Joey to be earlier than him.

Since Barnes took the throne, Joey has been completely abandoned, and this period has only garbage time for him, and it is indeed a clean neglect. Kyle didn't have much communication with him either, and the main away game in the southwest division was too difficult, and he was tired and panicked! Then he returned to his home stadium and fought one after another, and the battle here also had a cold treatment between Sam. Immediately after the super performance of 60 points, Kyle was completely immersed in his own world, and Joey, a supporting role, could only disappear in Kyle's eyes. But today to see Joey come so early, Kyle is still happy, a leader who is eager to win, and naturally likes hard-working people. Kyle is now crazy to win and play stats.

"Need me to make the ball for you?" Joey asked very earnestly.

"Thank you! No. "Sycophants? Kyle's joy vanished.

"Alright! Then I'm going to practice. ”

Kyle nodded, went to the locker room to change into a long outfit, began to warm up, and then shot, mainly three-pointers and emergency stops, Kyle knew that his treatment on the court in the future would be sky-high, and he could only improve himself. When scoring becomes difficult, many players have this awareness, but they don't have the determination to act consistently. Kyle is different, he has developed a habit of behavior, he will do what he says, he must do what he should do, he will never procrastinate or make excuses, people's inertia is cultivated by behavioral habits.

After practicing the assigned task, I looked at the watch, it was past six o'clock, and when I looked back at the basket, Joey kept repeating catch-and-shoot jumpers, especially three-pointers. Kyle saw it in his eyes and silently nodded his thumbs up, now that he thinks about it, Joey is still quite diligent these days!

"Take a break? Joey! Kyle greeted as he slumped down on the bench.

"Okay! Thank you! Taking the water from Kyle, Joey sat down nearby.

"It's been a lot of progress, it's not bad!"

"Like you said, work hard and sweat to get rewarded."

"I'm sure Sam will see it." Kyle blushed slightly, and asked people to train hard, and the playing time for practicing was gone, and he repaid an egg.

"He's just full of opinions about me, but I'm used to it, I can't influence him, I can only do this." Joey is still the same Joey, with a broken mouth!

"Oh! You think too much, I don't think so. Kyle replied, why are you complaining so much? However, it is acceptable for a diligent person to complain twice. "You know, I have a hard relationship with him, but he doesn't mean anything about personal vendettas."

"Because you're indispensable, that's what it is."

"Perhaps... I'm not that important. ”

"Kyle! Can you help me ask? In terms of my positioning, even a little bit of playing time is fine. Joey didn't tell Kyle to talk about it, but asked for playing time.

"Me? Ask Sam? "Kyle's first reaction was, "Your brain is cramping again? Tell him to ask Sam, how is it possible, this is a naked overreach! How do other coaches use people, it's up to him!

"Please! I want to play. Only you can say something like that. Joey looked sincere.

I don't know that Kyle has already blacklisted him, but when I think about it, it's not right! Only he could say that to Sam? There is something wrong with this sentence! In the eyes of the players, he Kyle Lowry has been above Sam's head? This kind of thinking is serious, very, very serious. The root of the team's chaos comes from the idea that no coach can stand a player riding on his head, absolutely not.

In fact, in the eyes of other teammates, Kyle does have more say than Sam. Kyle proposed tactical modifications, Sam pressed him in the game with the Nets, but in the game with the Celtics, Kyle rebounded strongly, scored 60 points and reversed the victory to declare his status, he is the most important person in the Raptors, Sam can only obediently obey, dare not completely eat the team's little bully, this is the most intuitive view. Another point is that Barnes, who is very close to Kyle, has become an important rotation, and it can also be said that Sam is courting Kyle.

All of this sends a signal that Kyle has become the most authoritative man on the Raptors.

"You can ask Chris, he might have more options." Kyle opened his mouth tentatively.

"Does that work? Chris wouldn't do that, I don't have a good relationship with him, and his words don't necessarily work. The tone of affirmation is followed by a very sure meaning.

"How do you know if you haven't tried? It's hard to imagine, but maybe it's going to happen. ”

"Nope! I don't think he has that ability. ”

Kyle is speechless, it's over! Things are so bad that I don't know if Sam notices it.

Looking down and thinking about it, Kyle decided to follow up and agreed to Joey's request, he wanted to try Sam's bottom line, "Okay! I'll help you ask. ”

It was a bold decision, but Kyle felt the need to do it, he had reached this point, and if there was no showdown, Sam would probably explode when he found out about it in the future. Now try if the water is not deep, can you lie down, so that you can be mentally prepared. As for Joey's request, it was purely Kyle's test stone to test Sam, and if it didn't, it was good, but if it didn't, I could only say I'm sorry!

"Thank you! Kyle! Thank you. Joey said excitedly, "This is the best news I've heard in all this time." ”

A quarter past eight o'clock, the players were full, and Sam was here. Kyle resolutely walks up to the office and begins his journey to the death.

Knocking on the door and coming in, Tylek was also there, and the hapless ghost who was put down on the rack found out afterwards that he was only shocked by a heavy blow.

"Hey! Kyle, morning! Have you had breakfast? "Talek was also very welcoming

"Talk to Coach Sam." Kyle smiled in response, and winked, brother! It's time for you to get out.

"Talk to me? Sit down! Is there something wrong? Sam looked down and took off his glasses, letting go of what he was doing.

"Sam! I'll go out and see how the boys are training. "Tylek is still quite self-conscious.

Sam nodded, turned to Kyle, and said, "Tell me about it!" ”

"About Joey!" After Kyle finished speaking, he observed the old man's face and saw that there was nothing abnormal, and then continued, "He is very diligent, and he came before me during this time. ”

"It's a good boy, I'll try to get him playing time." Sam was more conscious, and he didn't need Kyle to speak, and said the answer crisply, which was completely unexpected by Kyle, and there was nothing wrong with it!

"I don't mean anything else, I just like hard guys, just like me." Kyle forced himself to make excuses.

"Uh-huh! Indeed it is. Sam rubbed his face, "It's going to be tough, you have to be ready for the challenge, and the opponent is going to have an increasing focus on your defence, so you should think about how to deal with that." ”

"I know! Rest assured, I haven't let up in the slightest and I'm ready for any challenge. Kyle didn't see anything unusual about Sam, and was relieved, he thought he still had an eye for words.

"Very good! I didn't misread you. ”

Then there was another chat and fart, discussing the game and basketball, and the conversation was pleasant, and Sam even made a joke with Kyle.

When Kyle left, Sam sat up straight, slightly stunned. Kyle's meaning is obvious, but it's all within Sam's acceptable range, and it's better to give advice than to change tactics directly! At least Kyle can squeak and discuss with him, which is a sign of respect. The reason why Sam is not annoyed is simple, the opinions of the core players, the coach generally takes it seriously, and he now officially maintains a respect for Kyle, a respect for strength recognition, which has never been done before. What's more, Joey is really trying! (To be continued.) )
