Chapter Seventy-Three: Sacramento's Conjecture
Chapter Seventy-Three: Sacramento's Conjecture
The Sacramento Kings, founded in 1948 and joined the NBA, are a professional basketball team belonging to Sacramento, California, United States, and is part of the Western Conference Pacific Division.
Compared with many teams in the league, the Kings are undoubtedly much luckier, as early as the 1950-1951 season, the Kings won the NBA championship as the former Rochester Royals.
At least the Sacramento Kings had a glory days, they won championships, and they were the most successful team of the season!
The same California team, the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Lakers have had many glorious times, while the Kings can only watch their neighbors fight for glory and enjoy the fun of winning for a long time, while they themselves can only hide in the endless darkness and **** wounds alone, which is simply a fight with the Los Angeles Clippers.
In such a situation, it is extremely rare to be able to retain a loyal group of fans among the local Sacramento population.
Sacramento isn't Los Angeles, it doesn't have a world-class following, it doesn't have a lot of big names, and it doesn't have a star-studded fan base. Similarly, Sacramento isn't Oakland, which is across the ocean from San Francisco and has a large fan base, and as a world-class Bay Area city, Oakland has so much to offer.
In contrast, the same California team, the Kings are much shabby, even the perennial Los Angeles Clippers have the starry shroud of the City of Angels, Sacramento has a small population, and the economic level is not outstanding, and the city can be said to be not too valued by the league.
It was not until the 21st century that the Kings re-emerged under the Princeton tactical system of head coach Rick Adelman, with Chris Webber, Peja Stojakovic, Mike Bibby, Vlad Divac and other players as the core, with Bobby Jackson and Siddo Turkglou as the main "bench bandits", and played the Princeton storm that swept the league.
At that time, the Kings were the top powerhouses in the league, their games were the most interesting in the league, and their record was exceptional, and it was during that period that the Kings regathered a new generation of fans in Sacramento.
But the good times didn't last long, for various reasons, the Kings' dream of winning the championship was tragically shattered, and the team that had great hopes of winning the championship was finally separated and disbanded, and the glory was no longer there, and the Kings once again became the fish belly team in the West, which became an eternal regret in the hearts of Sacramento fans.
Last year, the Kings sent away Mike Bibby, marking the end of the Kings' golden generation and truly embarking on a rebuild, and countless fans are looking forward to this year's draft, hoping that the team can usher in a rookie full of bright futures to lead the team to rise.
This summer, the Kings drafted Tyrek Evans with the fourth pick in the first round and decided to rebuild the team with the former No. 1 high school student in the United States as the core!
The moment Terek Evans was selected, Kings fans were excited, they didn't pick the amazingly talented Griffin, but they got Tyrek Evans, who was once the No. 1 high school student in the country, wasn't that exciting enough?
They were already thinking about the mood in their minds when the Cleveland Cavaliers chose the little emperor LeBron James, and Cleveland was also a small city, as unknown in many cities across the United States, and even a gathering place for loan workers, jokingly called a safe haven for losers.
But everything has changed since the arrival of LeBron James, the small city, which has begun to be noticed by the league, and the number of fans in Cleveland has begun to increase dramatically.
So, can Sacramento replicate Cleveland's example?
LeBron James was once the No. 1 high school student in the United States, Tyrek Evans too, Cleveland is a small city that is not under the radar, and Sacramento is too, so the possibility of this example being realized may be very great!
Kings fans are starting to expect their young rookie to be as strong as LeBron to win this year's Rookie of the Year and even lead the team to a rise step by step.
Just like little emperor LeBron James did!
The NBA is a commercial league, and it has a lot of exposure and talk around the world, but it is obviously not enough to assign all the players in the league.
In the long season, every night there are players who become famous overnight, and there are players who fall into the abyss. That's why David Stern, president of the league, launched the star-making plan, and he is trying to use the league's packaging methods to contribute more star players to make the game more topical and commercially valuable!
But resources are limited, and whoever can stand out as the best rookie in each rookie will become the best rookie in the current year, so as long as he doesn't make big mistakes, he will become the object of the league's support.
One step at a time, one step at a time. Once you're ahead of your peers, you'll be on a faster and easier path to stardom, even a superstar!
LeBron James is an excellent example of this!
His rookie season performance is on par with Carmelo Anthony, LeBron is more versatile and excellent in terms of personal data, and Carmelo Anthony is obviously better than the team record, and the two far exceed the other rookies in the 03 platinum class, and are known as a moment of brightness.
However, after the rookie of the year was acquired by LeBron James, the little emperor James was no longer an ordinary player, he was included in the star making plan of the league president David Stern, and the name of the little emperor was at the top, even higher than some famous stars.
Five or six years have passed, and although LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony have not won the championship, just last year, the little emperor LeBron James led the Cleveland Cavaliers to play an excellent record and was successfully elected as the Most Valuable Player in the regular season, and he himself became the first MVP from the East in 9 years from 2001 to 2009 after Iverson in 2001.
LeBron James's team has been outstanding, which is undeniable, but it's hard to say whether the league has made some support for James who has been following him for a long time in the MVP vote.
Now, a heavy MVP trophy has thrown the distance between LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony, and the title of the Most Valuable Player of the regular season means the possibility of entering the Hall of Fame in the future!
Now, Sacramento Kings fans are pinning this good hope on Terek Evans, and they expect Tyreco Evans to replicate LeBron James's deeds.
Because of this, Tyrek Evans has never been so determined in his eyes tonight, and this game is supported by the national broadcast live, and he will use his strength to defeat that Chinese kid Bruce Lee in front of all basketball fans.
The best rookie can only be mine!
