Chapter 50 Belated Rookie of the Month

After a night of debate, Herbert Heiner, the ruler of Adidas, made a decision that, as soon as it was announced, sparked whispers from the top.

"With Bob, the head of marketing, leading a group of people to look at the performance of Chinese rookie Bruce Lee, and Jack, the head of operations, leading his staff to look at the performance of Derrick Rose, the young leader of the Bulls, I need to have a clear report at the end of the month, but at that time, I will decide on the shoe endorsement contract between the two."

Everyone thought it was a little incredible, Bob, the head of marketing, was a big fan of Chicago, and Jack, the head of operations, although not a New Yorker, was from Minnesota, so naturally he would not help Chicagoans.

Moreover, the decision to let the marketing department and the operations department inspect the players separately is a bit incredible!

This is no less than the left eye to observe the person on the right, the right brain to think about the thoughts of the person on the left, such a grotesque and crazy investigation plan, if it were not proposed by Herbert Heiner, the current ruler of Adidas, these Adidas executives would definitely think that it is a madman.

Herbert coughed slightly, his eyes flashing behind the lenses, this decision was a deliberate one, it was an excellent idea, he wanted to see what the player reports from both sides would look like in such a situation?

Herbert tapped his desk lightly with his fingers and said with a smile: "Guys, don't worry any more, hurry up and think about how to get first-hand data from players, which will determine the future of our Adidas North American basketball shoe field." ”

Everyone looked different, but they still nodded and agreed, the boss had spoken, and they naturally had to do things well.

The rigorous German style has been woven into the company's culture, and even Adidas employees in the United States are now working the same.

Bob, Adidas' head of marketing, may be a big fan of the Chicago Bulls, but that doesn't stop him from being passionate about the sport.

It was Michael Jordan who introduced him to basketball, and although he didn't become a great basketball player, he still embarked on a job that was closely related to basketball.

It is from a love of basketball that Bob can maintain a high enthusiasm for his work, after years of hard work, he successfully sat in the position of supervisor with his own efforts, a happy life, life is happy, these are brought to him by the orange elf, he is sincerely grateful to the orange round object.

This time, he was given the task of inspecting the Timberwolves rookie in Minnesota, which really gave him some headaches, and the weather in Minnesota was not human.

"Hell, it's cold weather, even polar bears don't want to stay long!" Bob rarely burst into a foul mouth, with a bit of helplessness in his eyes, if he could, would he rather go to his hometown Chicago to enjoy the food of his hometown, who would want to go to that hellish place in Minnesota.

The Timberwolves have their last two games left on this month's schedule, and their opponents are old acquaintances, the Phoenix Suns led by Nash at the beginning of the season and the Denver Nuggets, who just gave them a crushing defeat some time ago.

These two teams can be said to be difficult for the Timberwolves this year, whether it is the Denver Nuggets or the Phoenix Suns, their team strength is much better than the Timberwolves, the most important thing is that in the No. 1 position, this team has experienced star players, whether it is Chauncee Billups or Steve Nash, they are all players with superstar strength in the No. 1 position, Li Shihao is difficult to take advantage of when facing them, and his game experience is far from enough compared to them, The two point guards who have played for more than ten years are old goblin level characters who have rich experience in the game, and against players like Li Shihao, Li Shihao played extremely difficult in the course of the game.

However, there is no way, competition experience needs to be accumulated, just like upgrading and fighting monsters, no one can achieve it overnight, Li Shihao clearly understands what he should do at this stage.

Accumulate more game experience, improve your skills, and exercise your ability to control the rhythm!

Li Shihao deeply understands that he can perform such an amazing performance in his rookie season, which is undoubtedly taking advantage of the game experience and extremely solid foundation, and when the season gradually deepens, there will always be people in the remaining 29 teams in the league who will find his weaknesses, and if he can't make effective changes at that time, then he will be greeted by a cold state, and the young Timberwolves may fall into a losing streak.

The shelf life of the No. 1 player in the NBA is generally longer, much longer than that of interior players, and it is often seen that those veterans in the league who are slow in pace and are about to lose the ball are still struggling in this league, finding a home in a team, and mixing a pension contract.

A player in this position, as long as he maintains the player's self-discipline and training, and plays reasonably, it is difficult for his career to have a serious injury that affects the entire career.

Players in the No. 1 position need experience, more experience, and continuous accumulation until quantitative change leads to qualitative change!

This kind of thing requires the players to work hard to experience and accumulate, and they can't rush and force it.

On the evening of November 28, the Timberwolves faced the Phoenix Suns at the home target center, under Nash's needle lead, the Suns attacked smoothly throughout the game, and played an offensive sonata in front of the Timberwolves fans, with ups and downs and beautiful melody, but let the young Timberwolves reap a fiasco at home.

On the evening of November 30, the Timberwolves rushed to Denver, facing the old rival Nuggets again, on the Denver Plateau, in the face of a more powerful and hot home atmosphere than the last time, the young Timberwolves boys were completely lost on the plateau battlefield, and the whole team became a blacksmith, and the offensive end was not smooth until the fourth quarter of the game, and when the fourth quarter was completed, even if the hand felt warmer, in the face of a score difference of more than 20 points, the helplessness of returning to the sky once again permeated the hearts of these young players.

Since then, the Timberwolves' November games have all ended, although the taste of a wave of three consecutive losses at the end of the month made the hearts of the young players in the team a little uncomfortable, but this difficult November is finally over. The upcoming December will be the focus, as we enter the middle of the season and test the Timberwolves with a game yet to come.

A day later, the NBA's official website posted a recent announcement, Blanton Jennings and Li Shihao were successfully elected as the best rookie of the month in the East and West, and at the same time, the best player of the month in the East and West was also announced, Kobe Bryant and James won this honor respectively, the Lakers and Cavaliers boasted of the league's record caused everyone to think, the 23rd vs 24th matchup will be held in the Christmas War, this will be another game that detonates the ratings.

Just as on December 2, Li Shihao had just gotten off the team flight in Memphis, and the call from agent Bill Duffy came eagerly.

The moment the phone was connected, Li Shihao heard Duffy say in a hurried tone: "Bruce, Adidas has restarted the previous contract negotiations, and this time they are going to move seriously!" ”
