Chapter 100: A Day Off

James shot 10-of-19, 0-of-2 from three-point range and 4-of-7 from the free-throw line, scoring a team-high 24 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.

Boozer had 16 points and 13 rebounds.

Darius had 9 points, 7 rebounds and 4 blocks.

Capono shot 2-of-3 from three-point range and finished with six points and two rebounds.

Meme had six points and five rebounds.

Ye Feng shot 4-of-8, made 4-of-7 three-pointers, and made 2-of-2 free throws, scoring 14 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals.

The young guys at the Cavaliers all played their part, not just in the stats, but in the defense and the team that the stats don't tell.

They fought hard enough and played like a team.

In addition, Big Z had 10 points and 5 rebounds before leaving, and Davis also had 12 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists.

On the other hand, with the Wizards, Arenas scored a game-high 36 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, but did not take away the victory.

In the entire Wizards team, except for Arenas, only two scored in double figures.

Kwame Brown had 11 points and 13 rebounds, and Larry Hughes had 17 points, six rebounds and three assists.

This Wizards team is like Arenas fighting alone, although he is strong, how can he beat a group of people?

Elephants can't fight lions.

"The Wizards are only one Starkerhouse away from victory, and if Starkerhouse is not injured, it is almost impossible for the Cavaliers to turn the tables."

Mike Brin said with some unhappiness that he was supporting the Wizards before the game.

The Wizards didn't live up to his support either, leading by 21 points at halftime and sending the game into garbage time.

But no one could have imagined that the Wizards would be reversed in the end.

"Hey! Mike [Bryn], you haven't been a professional footballer, so you don't understand, injuries are part of the game. If Ilgoskas hadn't been injured, the Cavaliers might have turned the game around in the second quarter. ”

Fraser laughed and said that he was a clear supporter of the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers made a shocking comeback, and he was even happier than winning the lottery, and he didn't mind hurting his old partner at all.

"Look at those Cleveland fans, how happy they are and they won't leave!"

Since the third quarter of chasing points, these true fans have been cheering for the Cavaliers, and many of them have shouted hoarsely.

In the final moments of the game, when the Cavaliers overtook or even won, they all stood up and cheered loudly, like crazy.

Now that the Cavaliers have won, they are still basking in joy and refusing to leave for a long time.

The big boss Gooden Gander is also very good at being a person, and with a wave of his hand, he directly gave every fan present a large glass of beer, and the children were Coke, which made the fans full of praise.

Even though he doesn't understand basketball, he can understand what it means to go from being 21 points behind to being 3 points ahead.

Didn't you see that the few rich friends brought by Gander went from being silent to applauding the Cavaliers' goals from time to time, and finally forgot to talk?

"Gander, your team is going to be strong this year. If possible, I would like to get some shares from you, at a price you set! ”

Said a young rich man.

If Ye Feng noticed this person, he would definitely recognize him, because he was Dan Gilbert, the later big boss of the knights.

"Hey! Gilbert, I don't have any thoughts of selling my shares just yet. If you want, you'll have to wait. ”

Gander said, tilting his head.

"Good! I'll wait. ”

Gilbert not only did not give up because of Gander's words, but became more determined.

After the conversation, the group broke up, and Gander hummed the western war song and walked to the office.

"Boss, the president is calling!"

Suddenly, Gander's secretary runs out, holding Gander's wireless phone in his hand.

"President, David Stern?"

Gandelen paused for a moment, then took the phone.

Gander is one of the 29 biggest owners in the NBA league, and Stern is the president.

What can these two people talk about? Benefits, of course!

After hanging up the phone, Gander went straight to Paul.

"Tonight, is there a problem with letting Ye Feng attend the post-match press conference?"

Gander got straight to the point and said the request directly.

This is also the content of his conversation with Stern, how can the Huaxia market behind Ye Feng not be well developed.

"No problem!"

Paul agreed without hesitation.

Paul was so loving to this disciple.

Stability, tenacity, and refusal to admit defeat!

Obedient, solid, hard enough!

Is there a better disciple than this?

He may not have as many achievements in the future as James, but he is definitely the kind of player that every coach loves.

Tonight, everyone saw James play super giant data, and Ye Feng's data is ordinary, but no one will forget Ye Feng's performance in the third quarter, falling down several times, getting up again, and grabbing again! ......

Tonight, the Cavaliers won, James played a big role, every player has to pay, but the brightest thing in Paul's eyes is Ye Feng.

Thinking about it, Paul came to the locker room, only to find that Ye Feng was not there.

After asking James, he learned that Ye Feng had gone to the convalescence room.

When he came to the recuperation room again, Paul saw Ye Feng lying on the leather couch, and the Cavaliers' team doctor was using ice cubes to reduce his swelling.

Behind Ye Feng, there is a red and purple piece, which is shocking.

Obviously, the few times Ye Feng fell in the third quarter were far worse than everyone saw.

At this time, Paul remembered that Ye Feng was not an iron man. On the contrary, Ye Feng was the thinnest in the entire Cavaliers.

Seeing this scene, the joy in Paul's eyes slowly dissipated, his gaze became firm, and he took out his mobile phone.

"Boss, Ye Feng can't go to the press conference tonight......"

After hanging up the phone, Paul made a second call.

"Brandon (Malone), tomorrow morning, let Davis come to my office, I want to talk to him about ......"

That night, TNT, ESPN, CBC and other major media all published articles, praising Cleveland's shocking reversal.

The young players of the Cavaliers were all praised, especially James, Boozer, Darius, and Ye Feng, and Ye Feng, who has a relationship with China, has attracted more attention.

The media's evaluation of Ye Feng has also changed from pre-game doubts to pursuit, and they have slapped Charlie Rosen in the face.

"You're a guy who hasn't been on the field, why are you criticizing this year's No. 3 rookie?"

(In terms of data rankings, Ye Feng's stats are only behind James and Anthony.) )

ESPN commentator Fraser also gave Ye Feng a nickname, the microwave oven on the field, which means that Ye Feng can drive the momentum of the whole team.

Huaxia, CCTV5's Zhang Weiping gave Ye Feng another nickname - Desperate Saburo.

********

Because it's back-to-back games, the Cavaliers will have a day off.

(Back-to-back: Playing two games in two days with no breaks in between is a very physically demanding schedule.) )

On November 9, the coach gave the players a day off.

Early in the morning, Ye Feng got up to eat, everything was cleaned up, and the knock on the door rang out in due time.

"Boss, I'm here!"

Zhang Mofu, who was wearing a handsome suit, stood outside the door, smiling and giving a non-standard Chinese military salute, but it made Ye Feng laugh.

Today, the two made an appointment to meet with the people of the Cleveland Chinese Martial Arts Association.

Driving their own small pickup truck, the two hit the road.

The destination is not far away, in the middle of Ye Feng's apartment to the Quick Loan Arena.

On the way, Zhang Mofu reported the recent situation.

"The negotiations between me and Nike are still ongoing, the big companies are in trouble, they have been ready to sign a contract for a long time, and they said that they will wait a little longer, the shelf is really big!"

"On the contrary, we and several domestic companies in China are progressing smoothly and have reached the final step. I've pre-selected three companies, boss, and you'll take a look. ”

These three companies are Jianlibao, Red Bull, and Coconut Water, all of which are beverage companies.

Zhang Mofu recommended to choose one between Jianlibao and Red Bull, because Jianlibao is a large company and can give Ye Feng more support. Red Bull is a sports drink, which is more consistent with Ye Feng's identity as an athlete.

But Ye Feng did not hesitate to choose coconut water.

Jianlibao company is big, but the reborn Ye Feng knows that Jianlibao has declined overnight in recent years because of marketing problems.

As for Red Bull, it is indeed good, but it is relatively high-end, the price is not cheap, and it has not been able to occupy much market share for decades.

On the contrary, coconut water has become an evergreen tree in the Chinese soft drink market, standing tall for many years, and getting bigger and bigger.

Zhang Mofu didn't agree with Ye Feng's choice, but as an agent, he still had to rely on Ye Feng's opinion.

Since Ye Feng had chosen, Zhang Mofu had no choice but to agree.

"Boss, if we sign up for coconut water, we will soon get the first endorsement fee, about $150,000. Don't know how you're going to use it? ”

Zhang Mofu asked.

The endorsement contract of coconut water to Ye Feng is 1.5 million US dollars for three years, with an advance payment of 10%, and in 2003, it was already a big investment for the small coconut water group.

"Help me find a proper shooting coach, private."

Ye Feng said.

As they spoke, the two finally arrived at their destination.

A 13-storey building, the general base of the Chinese Wushu Association.
