Chapter 192: The Strongest Shield VS The Strongest Spear
Top floor of Robin Hood Hotel.
It features a rooftop swimming pool and a sky restaurant.
After completing the signing, Adi specially held a small celebration party for Lin Feng here, and also invited the band to perform and cheer up with a group of beauties.
This signing was also Lin Feng's first pot of gold in the real sense since he came to this time and space, so he was also very excited, and he couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.
With a little drunkenness, Lin Feng lay on the bench by the pool, and in the pool, Walker, Johnson, Ryson and others hugged left and right, playing with the beauties.
"It's amazing that there are so many beautiful women in the pool, and you are lying here by yourself." Shen Mengyao gently took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Not everyone is a man as you think, and many men still have a bottom line and discipline! Just like me! Lin Feng said righteously.
"Really?" Shen Mengyao asked with a chuckle.
"Uh, okay. Actually, I can't swim! Lin Feng spread his hands.
"Cut~! I thought you were really guarding Qin Ruolin like a jade! Shen Mengyao's eyes were like silk, and she glanced at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Shen Mengyao to pull out Qin Ruolin.
"Directors, there seems to be bad news."
Johnson's assistant, Tony, walked to the pool and shouted.
"What's wrong, Tony?" Johnson asked.
"Just five minutes ago, George and Nike reached an agreement that they would sign an endorsement contract of more than five years." Tony said.
"Nike actually agreed to George's offer?" Johnson was slightly surprised, George was previously the spokesperson of Adi, but his contract expired this year, and he who has grown into a first-tier star in the league wants to seek a big endorsement contract. The cost of his proclamation was 18 million dollars.
In the eyes of Adi's senior management, this price is too high, although George is a first-line star, his influence is still incomparable with those superstars, and the endorsement fee of 18 million a year is already comparable to the top superstars in the league, so. Adi has only been slow to renew his contract.
Originally, Adi wanted to dry George again, after all, no company would ever sign him at his price, but he didn't expect that now Nike actually signed him.
"It's not surprising Johnson, those Nike guys must be because we signed Lin Feng, so they are in a hurry to sign George. It can be regarded as a response to us, especially since the teams to which the two belong are likely to meet in the next round of the playoffs, and when the time comes, the winner will naturally win this spokesperson battle. Ryson said.
"Well, that's it, but they're willing to pay millions more a year to sign George, and I think they're going to regret it." Johnson finished. shouted at Lin Feng who was by the pool: "Lin is crazy, do you hear me?" Nike has signed your next round opponent, George, and this is obviously a demonstration to us, so you and your team are going to work hard for the next round and take them out! ”
Hearing Johnson's words, Lin Feng smiled. Four fingers were held out at him.
"Lin Madness, what do you mean by this, OK, shouldn't you have three fingers?" Johnson looked confused.
"Johnson, you still don't know our boss. He meant 4:0! Haha......" explained the bearded Walker.
"Oh my God! Lin Crazy Do you really mean that?? Johnson looked at Lin Feng in disbelief.
"That's right, that's what Walker said." Lin Feng responded with a smile.
"Oh Maiga, it's worthy of Lin Crazy, I like your confidence." Johnson shouted.
“4:0? Are you really confident? Shen Mengyao glanced at Lin Feng in surprise.
"Don't you believe me?" Lin Feng shrugged his shoulders with a relaxed expression.
"I don't believe it." Shen Mengyao shook her head.
"There are many people who question me, so let's wait and see!" After Lin Feng finished speaking, he stood up from the bench and shouted at everyone in the pool: "You go on, I'll go home first." ”
After the words fell, Lin Feng walked straight to the elevator room.
"Hey, you're just leaving? Don't play for a while? Shen Mengyao's shout came from behind him.
"No, I still have to go home to practice, otherwise how can I sweep the opponent 4:0!"
After Lin Feng finished speaking, he entered the elevator room.
……
In the next two days, Lin Feng was stepping up his training, his teammates were regular training, and Lin Feng asked the physical trainer to add physical training to him individually. For two days, 48 hours, Lin Feng spent at least 30 hours in training, and his training shirt was soaked with sweat, air-dried, soaked, and air-dried......
When he came back this time, Lin Feng made up his mind to strengthen his body, but there was no way to cheat on his physical strength and physical strength, so Lin Feng could only use sweat to build up.

Playoffs look defensive!!
After years of practice, these six words have become the six-word mantra of the playoffs, no matter how sharp the offense is, as long as it meets a strong defensive team in the playoffs, it is basically impossible to bargain, and most of the final promotion is also the team with a stronger defense.
Compared to the Pacers and the Knicks, it is natural that the team has a stronger defense.
It was the night the Pacers and Raptors game ended.

The Indiana Pacers, the team that conceded the fewest points per game in the first round of the playoffs, allowed only 82 points per game in six games, and averaged 7 steals and 8.5 blocks per game, which shows how fierce a team is this team defensively.
The New York Knicks, the team with the highest average points per game in the first round of the playoffs, scored an average of 124 points per game in four games, hitting an average of 21 three-pointers per game, this number also set a new record in the league, and Lin Feng, the team's top scorer, set a magical scoring record one after another, 62 points in the third quarter and 81 points in a single game!
