"Challenge the Arena Rats: Complete the Steve Nash Method for 12 days in a row."
……
After a day of rest on the 11th, on the 12th, the Warriors ushered in the preseason game against the Lakers again.
There are three preseason games against the Lakers, and the last game is the last game of a six-game road streak.
After playing the Lakers today, I have to play the Clippers back-to-back tomorrow.
Unlike the previous two games, which were to test the level of quality of each player, this morning's tactical meeting emphasised tactical movement.
When it's time to play, it's basically everyone else who is running, and if you have a chance by tactics, you can shoot for almost everyone.
However, it was basically Ellis, who hadn't played enough yesterday, to play against Kobe Bryant, who also hadn't played enough.
Ellis and Reggie Williams, who were the focus of today's use, combined for 61 points, Ellis scored 31 points, and Reggie Williams scored 30 points, and the two led the team to help the Warriors defeat the Lakers led by Kobe Bryant, who scored 37 points, 113-99.
Lakers want to win preseason...... It's hard to ...... The Lakers lost three in a row ......
Curry continued to play a steady game, playing 28 minutes, mainly responsible for opening up space for Ellis and Reggie Williams to single, scoring 11 points on 4-of-10 shooting.
Sun Ce got 15 minutes of playing time.
Sun Ce didn't waste the opportunity either, using Ellis or Curry's containment to score five points, three rebounds and three assists thanks to 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 are a little worse, only 6 free throws and 3 hits, mainly because his cut is too fast, and the opponent's first choice is to foul when he gets the ball, in the preseason, he is as arrogant as the Lakers inside, and he is too lazy to find a way to deal with Sun Ce's cut, and he fouls directly, giving Sun Ce a lot of physical contact, he originally estimated that he could have a free throw shooting rate of 60% to 70%, and only 50% of the free throw shooting rate was alive because of the big confrontation.
……
The game is not long, although the next game is a consecutive away game against the Clippers, or back-to-back, but coincidentally, the home of the Clippers is also in the Staples Center, no need to change cities, Sun Ce stayed after the game to continue to practice.
This time, the Nash training method has increased the training intensity and the number of training items a lot, and it has been almost four months since he got the Nash training method, Sun Ce has been very accustomed to training in that kind of situation that is on the verge of physical strength, and successfully completed the training arrangement of the Nash training method, as long as he goes back to sleep, he can recover in the morning.
It's just that when he was training today, Sun Ce always felt that there was always a resentful look...... Turning his head to see the image of Ellis training hard, he thought it might be an illusion......
……
……
The No. 13 Warriors defeated the Clippers 91-77, and Sun Ce had 7 points and 5 assists in 18 minutes of playing time, still focusing on passing, but did not grab rebounds.
Watson and Curry had a strong performance today, with Watson scoring 19 points and Curry scoring 23 points to help the Warriors win three straight preseason games and turn their preseason record into 3-1.
After playing four Los Angeles games in a row, on October 15, the Warriors came to Sacramento to play the Kings, and the protagonist became Curry vs. Evans, Curry played 30 minutes and got 21 points, 8 assists and 3 rebounds, Evans played 35 minutes, 9 of 16, and scored 25 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists!
91-103, the Warriors were snapped off by the Kings on a three-game winning streak.
Sun Ce played 17 minutes and got 11 points and 2 assists, Curry was excited to see Evans, and today Curry was in charge of the main control.
Sun Ce finally saw Evans' ability evaluation, and as a rookie, Evans' ability evaluation was A-...... Comparable to Stephen Jackson's ability evaluation!
Thinking of Evans' future, Sun Ce felt a strong smell called "rookie is the peak".
The playing time of each player in the pre-season has gradually become stable, and the 16 players have played a relatively fixed amount of time in the following games.
Ellis, along with Stephen Jackson and Margety, basically only played half a quarter to one quarter per game.
Curry's stable playing time of about 30 minutes, although Biedrins made the old Nelson feel desperate, the old Nelson felt that he was unlucky to meet a player who withered after a big contract broke out in the contract year, but 6 years and 52 million, it still has to be used, in case it feels like it is slowly getting back, at least the preseason needs to try more, and the playing time of Biederins has gradually increased to nearly 30 minutes.
Watson and Reggie Williams alternated, one on the court, the other didn't play in the day's game, and the Warriors were considering who to keep.
On Sun Ce's side, he got 15 to 20 minutes of playing time in every game, which was very stable.
……
On October 18, at 10 a.m., the Warriors arrived in Phoenix, the city where Sun Ce has spent the longest time in the United States.
Not long after the Warriors arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel in Phoenix's North Side, Bill Duffy arrived at Sun Ce with his suitcase.
Arriving at the hotel, Curry saw that Sun Ce and Bill Duffy seemed to have something to talk about, and left the standard room where Sun Ce was staying.
"Noah, you've been doing well lately," 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 star sponsorship, the price is the same, 150,000 yuan, you can choose a pair you like." ”
Sun Ce took a look, and none of the four pairs of sneakers were the signature shoes of a star of these four brands.
Of course, these four sneaker brands will not only sell signature shoes, but there are many other sneakers, and the craftsmanship of signature shoes and non-signature shoes is actually similar, but signature shoes are more distinctive, and it is possible that the stars themselves will participate in the design, which can be sold more expensive.
And these non-signature shoes also need to be promoted to sell better, so cast a wide net.
Generally speaking, rookies will get a good endorsement fee, wearing a certain brand's sneakers to play games, which can be regarded as the brand's practice of "trapping" the rookie first, as long as the money is taken, the brand has the right of priority to renew, if the rookie is played, other brands want to poach people, and the brand that temporarily owns the rookie can be given priority to renew the contract at the same price.
Of course, those who sign such contracts are basically not lotto shows.
The price difference between the inner line and the outer line is also relatively large, the inner line is usually 50,000 US dollars, and the outer line starts at 100,000 US dollars.
Sun Ce picked up the Air-Jordan without hesitation.
Jordan, of course! He is now wearing an Air-JordanXX1 from 2006 that he bought in the summer.
"Bill, if I choose this, can I get them to change to XX4?" Sun Ce asked.
"Of course, this is just a sample, you can keep these four pairs of shoes, and then the official sneakers need them to measure your foot shape, you can ask them which pair of shoes, they will not restrict us to only wear their sneakers, but we need to participate when it comes to the advertising shoot of potential rookies." Bill Duffy explained.
It was decided to sign Jordan's free new shoes for the time being, Bill Duffy's work today was over, and Sun Ce signed the contract provided by Air-Jordan, and it was over.
This kind of potential rookie contract is a very common contract, with at least 30 copies being given away every year, and brands have become accustomed to giving contracts directly to their agents.
At the end of the work, Bill Duffy was about to leave when he was stopped by Sun Ce.
"Bill, do you think I'm really okay? Why is my playing time decreasing? And all the time for ten minutes? Sun Ce hesitated for a long time, but still asked this question.
"It's good that the playing time is stable, Noah, it means that the team has a clear positioning for you, and the next thing you have to do is to try to show your ability in the defined range of playing time!" Bill Duffy replied.
"I see! Thank you, Bill. ”
Sun Ce originally felt that his playing time was shortened from 26 minutes in the second game to 178 minutes in the next three games because his performance was not good enough, but he didn't expect it to be like this!
Step up your game...... Finally, there is a certain harvest!
Then you have to keep up the consistent playing time you get so far!
