Chapter 56: David Stern's Concern

Early the next morning, Sun Jianguo turned on the TV as usual, because there was a game of his nephew Li Kaiming last night, so today's sports news will definitely report it.

As soon as he turned on the TV, a figure in red pajamas came out of the bathroom next to him.

Sun Lan smiled and said to Sun Jianjun, "Old Sun, I was in bed last night, why didn't I see you so active?" It's a matter of concern for Kaiming's game! ”

Sun Jianjun's old face turned red, "What is positive or not, I am not in a good state, do I understand ......?"

Sun Lan smiled, and did not refute, but interrupted, "Was there a Kaiming game yesterday?" Will he win? ”

Sun Jianjun nodded affirmatively, "Of course, that's my Sun Jianjun's eldest nephew, besides, I've heard from customers in the restaurant that Memphis has a great chance of winning!" ”

Sun Lan frowned, "But last time that customer said that Memphis couldn't beat Michigan......"

Sun Jianjun's face changed, "He, he's talking nonsense, I believe Li Kaiming." But the voice became quieter and quieter, and it was obvious that he had lost confidence.

Just then, the music of the morning sports news came from the television, and the two immediately turned their heads, their eyes fixed on the screen.

The beautiful host smiled and read the script in a very magnetic voice, "The NCAA Midwest Division semifinals held at the St. Louis Dome yesterday afternoon have come to an end, and the Memphis Tigers defeated the University of Northern Iowa Panthers 86-54 to successfully advance to the Midwest Conference finals and become a seeded team in the elite quarterfinals. Li Kaiming, the No. 34 player of the University of Memphis, performed well in this game, he played 25 minutes and scored 36 points, 22 rebounds, 4 assists, 5 steals and 6 blocks, 30+10 in two consecutive games, becoming the first player in the history of the C-USA league to achieve this achievement......"

Listening to the host's broadcast on the TV, Sun Jianjun and Sun Lan were stunned.

Especially Sun Jianjun, after watching so many games, he also understands the data of the game, although he doesn't fully understand, but he also knows that the data played by Li Kaiming is very unheavenly!

But Sun Lan on the side had a trace of doubt on her face, "Old Sun, isn't Kaiming's data particularly powerful?" ”

The corners of Sun Jianjun's mouth trembled, he wanted to use a metaphor to help his wife understand, but he couldn't think of anything, he just muttered and repeated, "Very powerful, very powerful......

Li Kaiming's number one fan, Comrade Barkley, the bald head, also sent blessings to Li Kaiming as soon as possible after the game.

"Aite Li Kaiming: Congratulations to this tiger, he is omnipotent like a god on the basketball court, and the players of the University of Northern Iowa, both physically and psychologically, have been completely destroyed by him, I have to say, you are such a bastard! But I like it very much, hahaha. I believe that after today's game, Li should lock in a lottery spot, and if any team doesn't want to get him, this team should collectively move to China to play the CBA and feel the intensity of the Shanghai Sharks. ”

At the end of the tweet, Sir Ba did not forget to yin and yang his old rival Koslov, "Ait Koslov: May I ask, who is the boss of the Memphis team now?" ”

Obviously, Koslov would not answer him, because his private messages were filled with countless greetings, and the friendly Li Kaiming fans were doing their best to interact with Koslowov's mother and ancestors.

If Emelica had a family register, I'm afraid that Koslov's family register would have been left with his page at this time......

For crazy fans, their power is endless.

When he hacked Li Kaiming, he should have understood that the consequence of mobilizing fans to create public opinion is that unless he can always be right, what awaits him will be a backlash!

In the other game in the Midwest, the University of Tennessee volunteers defeated Evan Turner's Ohio State University 76-73 to reach the Midwest Finals and meet Memphis.

The Western Conference competition came to an end on the 25th, with Gordon Haywood's Butler University narrowly defeating Syracuse University 63-59, Kansas State University and Xavier University facing off for the entire game, and finally the former defeated Xavier University 101-96 and will face Butler University in the final.

In the Eastern Conference semifinals, which also ended on the 25th, the No. 1 seed University of Kentucky easily defeated Cornell University 62-45, and West Virginia University defeated the University of Washington 69-56 on the other side to meet Kentucky.

Duke University defeated Purdue University 70-57 in the Southern Division, while their opponent defeated Baylor University at St. Mary's College of California 72-49 in the semifinals.

And after this battle, Li Kaiming also officially attracted the attention of the NBA league executives!

David Stern, the president who stood in the cold wind at the door of CCTV with Jordan's video and waited for several hours to send the NBA to China, also began to notice this talented Chinese teenager!

As the biggest contributor to the promotion of the NBA to the world during his tenure, David Stern is keenly aware that the emergence of Li Kaiming will be another great opportunity to expand the influence of the NBA in China after Yao Ming!

He noticed this guy as early as when Li Kaiming was just coming to prominence, but at that time, he, like most people's thoughts, felt that one or two outbursts didn't mean anything.

But now, Li Kaiming is about to break out for half a month, as long as he has a brain, he can see that this is Li Kaiming's true strength!

So, at the behest of David Stern, a wave of even greater exposure also came after the regional semi-finals.

Even Li Kaiming himself clearly felt that somewhere he couldn't see, there was a huge hand behind the scenes, and the source of this power was definitely not something that his agent Monica and his ilk could control......

And Li Kaiming himself will naturally not lie on the bed stupidly, waiting for pie to fall from the sky.

If you don't grasp the heat, how can you take off? If you enter the NBA, you have to sign a contract, as long as you have enough fans and can bring a lot of income to the team, then you can sign a sky-high contract, and even if you have a large enough fan base and enough power, then it is not without problems to enter the All-Star......

So after a night's rest, after Li Kaiming woke up, he first took a handsome selfie lying in the quilt, and then posted it on Twitter with 100,000 followers.

Good morning everyone, it's another great day! Tomorrow is the finals of the Midwest Division, and the tension is ......

As soon as the tweet was sent, it received hundreds of likes and dozens of comments in an instant.

"Wow, Brother Kaiming is so handsome, is posting a picture of sleeping to imply me? I can (shy .jpg)"

"I'm not gay, but I have to say you're really handsome...... It's so handsome that I'm a little ...... Again, I'm really not gay...... Okay, I'm gay, Brother Kaiming come to my bowl! ”

"Knowing the sky, the man who goes against the sky!"

"+1, that guy upstairs is too rebellious!"
