Chapter 268: Exchange of Experiences (Part 1)
The Clippers got off to a good start to the new season with a win in the opener.
In this game, Curry scored 21 points and 5 assists, and Harden scored 17 points and 8 assists.
The top scorer was Randolph with 22 points, 10 rebounds, and the standard 20+10 stats.
Throughout the game, the Clippers were inferior to the Trail Blazers in rebounds, turnovers, shooting percentage and other statistics.
In the end, in addition to the referee's last-minute misjudgment, there is also their three-point shot.
The Clippers made four more three-pointers than the Trail Blazers and dominated the shots.
Scoring more three-pointers and playing a faster pace, the Clippers used their talent to win the game.
For this result, Min Congda was depressed at home for a whole day, especially after hearing the NBA's official apology, his mood was even worse.
I went to the training center cafeteria and ate three hamburgers to relieve my strength and soothe the pain in my heart.
Min Congda feels that it is becoming more and more difficult to touch the fine of the Porcelain Alliance.
If you scold the referee at the beginning, the league will pay a fine.
Now, scold the referee, he doesn't pay attention to you.
scolded the alliance, scolded the president, and even took the initiative to apologize?
It's really bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, bullying honest people.
People who don't usually talk much, if they say a few words, the alliance will issue a ticket.
Min Congda's dog skin plaster, the fine has no stopping effect on him.
The more the punishment is getting harder, the alliance will not be cowardly, and who can afford to be scolded every day.
The NBA is also about face.
Min Congda is not particularly short of money to spend now, and he took out a large sum of the $500,000 last time to buy Apple shares.
With the release and big sale of the iPhone 4, Apple's stock price continued to rise, experiencing a wave of surges, rushing to $300 per share.
As a result, Min Congda's assets have risen, and with 2,000 shares, his share value has reached $600,000.
He still has $150,000 in cash in his hand, and his basic life is completely fine.
Think about it when you first came to the United States, you have to borrow 50 yuan to prevent you from having no money to eat.
Min Congda felt that he was still quite inspirational.
However, the mission goal was $300 million at the beginning, and now it has grown to $360 million.
The team invests in this thing, Min Congda doesn't dare to touch it, and the more he invests, the more money he invests.
It also drains the Clippers, and there are currently two major drainage tools, one is "Basketball and Kee" and the other is Kanye West.
"Basketball & Kee" is really up to date, and there was just a foul controversy yesterday.
Today, Jordan Peel filmed a new short film "Foul", mocking the NBA referee's blindness.
During the game, the referee did not blow all kinds of fouls committed by the players.
As a result, a player laughed on the sidelines, and was whistled by the referee for a technical foul.
Peel is really getting better at catching hot spots.
And "Basketball & Key" is no longer just about making short films related to basketball.
They began to spin off and try to shoot other types of short dramas, and it worked very well.
Min Congda is considering opening a special account channel for the two of them, and they will no longer be tied to the Clippers.
Otherwise, the number of hits on the Clippers' official account is getting higher and higher, and there are more and more fans interested in the Clippers, which is not a good thing.
Kanye West gave Min Congda even more headaches.
West opened with a bunch of celebrities bidding for Clippers sideside seats.
The Clippers' first game was not only full, but also broke through a million dollars at the box office in a single game.
Once a habit is formed later, the field breaks one million, how can this swing be rotten?
The situation suddenly became grim for Min Congda.
However, Min Congda is a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, big ups and downs.
He still has this psychological endurance, and it is not a big problem to win just one game.
Two days later, on October 29, Min Congda traveled to Oakland with the Clippers.
Away to the Golden State Warriors.
For this game, Min Congda attaches great importance to it and wants to visit Auckland in person.
Because the Golden State Warriors ushered in a seismic change in the summer of 2010.
A syndicate led by Lacob buys the poorly managed Warriors, ushering in a new era for the Warriors.
Min Congda was very shocked when he first got the news, and there was a team that was sold for poor management before him!
Although the Warriors are not bankrupt, their revenue is upside down, their profitability is declining, and the boss can no longer hold on.
Warriors' previous owner, Chris Cohan, bought the Warriors for $190 million during the 1995 season.
After more than ten years of tossing, the only thing that the Warriors can impress fans is the former TMC combination and the Black Eight in 2007.
In recent years, the team's results have become worse and worse, and under the financial turmoil, the owner finally can't hold on.
The agency gave a team valuation of $350 million, and Lacob formed a syndicate and won the Warriors at a premium of $450 million.
After reorganizing the Warriors, the owner immediately led the team to start a change from start to finish.
Veteran coach Nicholson has retired and assistant coach Keith Smart has stepped in.
The team's logo and color scheme have been completely replaced.
The orange and yellow lightning warriors of the 90s cartoon style are left behind.
Replaced with the classic blue and yellow bridge pattern, heralding the beginning of a new era for warriors.
The Warriors' team logo and jersey changes should be said to be full of sincerity.
The orange and yellow Lightning Warriors are already the style of painting in the last era, and they do not compound the current NBA aesthetics.
The blue and yellow color scheme is more atmospheric, and the pattern of the bridge is a symbol of the glory of the warriors.
In order to distinguish it from the classic Golden Gate Bridge pattern of the warriors of the 60s, this time the pattern design of the warriors adopts the silhouette of another famous bridge in the Bay Area, the Bay Bridge.
It should be said that the Warriors' new logo and jersey design are very successful, very sincere, and the design is also very beautiful.
It's a pity that the limelight of the Warriors' new logo has been completely overshadowed by the performance art of the Clippers.
The new owner of the Warriors, Lacob, is very depressed, obviously they also spent a lot of money and hired a professional design company to do a good LOGO design, which was praised by all parties, and the fans thought it was very good-looking.
As a result, the news media was full of news about the Clippers' $2.5 million new target.
As a result, the Clippers' jersey sales have been rising, although they have begun to fall back after the start of the new season.
It can only be said that Smart Min is too good at hype.
But Min Congda had to go to Auckland to inspect and learn from the experience of loss.
Let's see how they can't sell tickets for a team, and finally have to give them away.
Before the game, Min Congda made a point of contacting Warriors general manager Larry Riley.
At five o'clock, when the two teams began to warm up, they sat at the Oracle Arena to exchange experiences.
Larry Riley also wanted to talk to Min Congda, a rising star in the general manager circle, who felt a little overwhelmed.
Min Congda got straight to the point and asked directly: "Larry, how did the Warriors lose money all these years?" ”
Larry Riley had been in contact with Min Congda before, and knew that this man had always been outspoken and fast-talking, and Stern couldn't do anything about him.
He thought to himself, I have met a lot of Chinese people in Auckland, and Chinese have always been subtle and courteous.
Why can't I see it in you at all, are you here to exchange experiences, or are you here to hurt me?
Larry Riley rubbed his nose and said, "Loss, your boss Sterling should have more experience than me." ”
