Chapter 387: MVP and Sponsors

And the two basketball giants who were also born in Akron are now staying in the top two teams in the NBA's East and West, Curry and James. So thinking about it this way, it makes perfect sense that Goodyear Forum sponsors the Cavaliers, and his original logo is in the Warrior color.

I have a locomotive and I also have alcohol

The Harley motorcycle in the United States is a symbol of American culture, is a holy object in the hearts of many motorcycle enthusiasts, and on the weekend ride the big Harley rumble to a street tavern in the forest to drink a glass of pure beer, this is the life that the Harley people yearn for, and these are the standard configurations of Milwaukee, because Milwaukee's specialty is beer + Harley locomotive.

Because of the popularity of beer, Milwaukee's baseball team was called the Brewers, and the Bucks hit the latter, and finally put the Harley-Davidson Motor on their jerseys. Can you think about the sight of a lot of rugged men in sleeveless leather jackets with the Harley logo on the back of the NBA court, drinking beer and watching the ball?

The current NBA team is inseparable from the best rehabilitation training and the top sports technology tracking, Mayo Clinic as the top sports rehabilitation center in the United States is located in Minnesota, they have the top sports rehabilitation system, if it is not for Minnesota is a cold city in the north, it is estimated that the team's health level will exceed that of the Suns with miracle doctors. Of course, rehabilitation alone is not enough, athletes' daily data tracking is also very important, Fitbit has worked with three teams in Minnesota (NBA/NBA/G-Legend) to create an athlete data tracking, each player when you sleep, where to run, whether the training is serious or not, the coach does not have to star, naturally there is data to assess.

The combination of Fitbit and the Timberwolves' new jersey is the most detailed, the Timberwolves' new jersey is like a Wizards with a Maverick color, with a FitBit advertising module on the chest bar, not a patch, but a direct hot stamp. I hope that Jimmy Butler will have a good time with Towns and Wiggins after he goes to the Timberwolves. In this year's NBA China game, Fitbit can be on fire on the court, hoping to launch a series of cooler products by cooperating with the Timberwolves.

There's no better way to dream than Disneyland

Orlando has such a cutting-edge place as NASA, of course, it is an agency of the US government, and it is very desirable to have no advertising. And another company that makes the world known without advertising is called Disney. Orlando is home to one of the largest Disney parks in the world, and it really is the best theme park in the world.

After the combination with Disney, the Orlando Magic team can let the designer go to the Disney All-Star Resort to see that it is full of pentagram design elements, and add more Disney-inspired elements to the Magic team's jersey, although the current record is average, but the jersey can be combined with the world-famous Disney to collide with more stars (the Magic team's jersey with stars is very good-looking), when you go to Orlando to watch the game, the Disney cartoon characters will feel very good around you, It is believed that there will be Disney nights.

Unlike the other 29 teams in the league, the other 29 teams in the league have the Nike logo on their jerseys, while the Hornets have the "JordanBrand" logo, which also highlights Michael Jordan's identity as the owner of this team. HAVING A GOOD BOSS IS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN ANY ADVERTISEMENT, AND NOT EVERYONE GETS THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENDORSE AIR JORDAN, AND THE HORNETS DID IT.

Everyone knows Jordan's growth background very well, North Carolina has almost all memories of Jordan's childhood + adolescence, the University of North Carolina, Lenny High School, and the Jordan you see is actually blue in his bones.

The 2016-17 NBA regular season is over, the playoffs are all out, and the fierce battle is about to start.

At the same time, the final ownership of the various awards in the regular season, especially the most important MVP winners, is once again a hot topic.

Looking at the list of candidates, James Harden, who averaged 30.4+5.4+8.8 per game, was far ahead on the list and led the entire season. And his Rockets team also won 65 games, ranking first in the league. Therefore, Harden, who has no one to beat in terms of personal data or team records, can be said to have won the MVP safely.

But at the same time, another, perhaps unproblematic, issue has quietly surfaced on paper. As the spokesperson of adidas, can Harden really stand out in the era of Nike's unification?

In the summer of 2017, the NBA launched a new jersey contract cycle with Nike, which also made it the NBA's largest sponsor. So will this year's MVP trophy fall into Harden's pocket? What does this mean for adidas, which has only three spokespersons to win the MVP trophy since the beginning of the new century? The NBA, which has always been well versed in star-making, will it choose to get a triple-double per game again this time?

"There's no suspense about the MVP, and the MVP should be awarded to Harden now!" As early as January, when Harden scored a "60+ triple-double", commentator Yang Yi was so amazed. At the end of each season, the MVP is the subject of a huge discussion. It's not just the fans and the media, it's a lot of players, coaches and management who will be joining in.

So, could this guy be Harden?

The stats in front of us are perhaps the best proof of this: the Rockets have the best record in the league this season; Harden remained super-jumbo and stuffed the stat bar to the brim; There is no eye defense, and there is no lace controversy, so it has also been supported by public opinion for a long time, and has dominated the official MVP list given by the NBA for a long time.

However, if we look at last season's MVP contest, perhaps the answer is not so simple.

As has always been the case, Harden, who led the Rockets to second place in the West last season, seems to be the more deserving of the MVP trophy. Some people will complain about Wei Shao, who averaged a triple-double per game, however, Oscar Robertson, who averaged a triple-double per game last time, only finished third in the 61-62 season - that year's MVP was ultimately awarded to Bill Russell, who led the Celtics to the first 60-win team in history, and also received 51 of the 85 votes.

So during the MVP race, Rockets general manager Morey tweeted: "For the past 35 years, MVPs have come from teams with 50 wins and a top-four record, and it's a bit strange to change the bar for years." His views also represent the views of many viewers.

However, this record, which lasted for 35 years, was finally made obsolete. At the awards ceremony held in June last year, Wei Shao, who averaged a triple-double per game, finally won the MVP trophy.

There are many people who have put forward the idea that the sponsor behind Westbrook is Nike's Jordan brand. Interestingly, after winning the MVP, Wei Shao signed a 10-year contract offered by Jordan, and then Nike CEO Mark Parker revealed that Wei Shao's signature shoes will be launched in 2018.
