Rebirth of Hayes Cyclone

Chapter 50 [Hayes Whirlwind]

An away game against the Suns known as the "Rocket Nemesis", the Rockets led the league with a total record of 13 wins and 2 losses.

Today, the strength of the Rockets is the most discussed topic.

"Have the Rockets become the best team in the league?"

"How many games can the Rockets win in a row?"

"Do the Rockets have a chance to break the Bulls' winning streak?"

The Rockets still seldom dunk in offense, but no one said they were ugly.

In a game, the loser is always the ugliest.

Compared with last season, the Rockets have undergone a complete change. Their outside offense is terrible. Regardless of the number of shots or the number of hits in three-pointers, they rank first in the league; One point less, but the opponent's scoring limit is 107.2, which is the only team below 88.7 points.With such data, it is not surprising that the Rockets have become the hottest team in the league this season.

Five authoritative experts of "NBA Vision" expressed their opinions on the Rockets' new season prospects and player performance, and selected the five most popular players.

Interestingly, among the five most popular Rockets players selected by experts, Chuck Hayes ranked first, becoming the Rockets player most loved by experts, stealing the limelight from the two big brothers Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady .

Experts’ evaluation of Chuck Hayes is: “Hayes may not be the strongest player, but he is definitely the most cost-effective player in the world. He is physically strong, defensively strong, and has rich offensive methods. Can score [-] points. More importantly, his fighting spirit can improve the morale of the Rockets and play a role in encouraging the whole team. The Rockets have not been able to pass the threshold of the first round of the playoffs so far. The spell will almost certainly be broken, and the reason is Hayes."

Yao Ming is the No. [-] player favored by many experts. His concentration and devotion on the court have won everyone's love.Experts commented that "Yao Ming is an MVP-level player in the international basketball arena, and his performance last season showed us that in NBA games, Yao Ming can also play the data of an MVP star. He is a great scorer The only thing that can stop him is injury. If the Rockets want to go further, they must ensure Yao Ming's health."

The third is Maddie.Experts believe, "He has outstanding ability, but he is not hardworking enough on the training ground. His desire for victory is not as good as Yao Ming, and he cannot surprise the fans with his impact at the basket or in the confrontation with superstars. He is not as good as Battier. Maybe it is because of his personality flaws that McGrady has not achieved as much as Kobe Bryant. However, McGrady is good. He is a team player who is willing to transform and promotes the good chemistry in the team, making the Rockets a big favorite for the Western Conference championship. Unlike other teams' popular power grabs, he seems to be happy to give up the core To Yao Ming or even Hayes, the rising rookie.

The fourth favorite player is summer new aid Bunch Wells.Wells was an unexpected surprise for Houston in the summer. He rejected the Kings' five-year $5 million contract and joined the Rockets with a low salary.This is Wells' ninth season, but "Stab" is as dynamic as when he first joined the NBA.He is very active, and his post-up style is similar to that of Hayes. His unique tonnage makes him a fierce figure at the basket. He moves very fast and can also grab rebounds, especially offensive rebounds.He's too strong and too quick for most linebackers and swingmen who watch him.Wells didn't play a preseason game, but his form is unquestionable.After returning from injury, he appeared as the Rockets' sixth man and became the team's fourth scorer.From the current point of view, he is expected to compete for the best sixth man in the league.

Good old Shane Battier occupies the last seat among the five favorite players. Battier's down-to-earth style of play and professionalism are the keys to the love of these ball critics.

Experts believe that Battier is not only one of the best defenders in the league, but also a player who can make the team better.Battier worked hard to implement the tasks assigned by the coach. He clearly knew his role in the team. He had offensive ability, but he deliberately reduced the number of shots and tried to only shoot when open.On and off the court, Battier is a role model for young children. He participates in NBA charity activities, volunteers for the Houston community, and has always been conscientious on the court.Battier is definitely the kind of star that parents of young children want to see, and a role model for young children to learn from.

Unfortunately, among the five players, Alston's name was not seen.This is a bad sign, at least it proves that on the court, the performance of the Rockets' starting point guard did not satisfy these harsh ball critics.Alston's dribbling is unmistakable, but his lack of passing awareness and offensive shots are the current criticism of the Rockets.His defensive flaws could well be a hindrance to the Rockets going into the playoffs.

Hayes was physically and mentally exhausted from the continuous air travel.After returning to Houston from Phoenix, he threw his bag on the floor, took off his clothes, and fell asleep on the bed.

As soon as he closed his eyes and opened them again, it was the next day when he heard someone ringing the doorbell frantically.

Hayes was sleepy, yawned, and went to open the door shirtless.

Gao Tongxuan was holding a bag in her hand. Seeing that Hayes was only wearing pajama pants, she froze for a moment, then turned her head back with a scream.

Hayes woke up and hurried back to the bedroom to change clothes.

When he came out in sportswear, Gao Tongxuan was still standing outside the door and did not dare to enter.

While Hayes was in Phoenix, Gao moved into Taylor Swift's apartment.She liked Taylor Swift very much, and the two became good friends.Taylor began to find time to learn Chinese from Gao Tongxuan. Obviously, it was all for Hayes.

"I'm sorry. I thought it must be my impatient dad who rang the doorbell so fiercely. I didn't expect it to be you. Come in quickly." Hayes scratched his head and said in Chinese.

"It's okay." Gao Tongxuan sat on the sofa, blushed for a while, and said, "I have something to discuss with you about advertising endorsements."

"Oh? You made achievements so quickly? What kind of job is it?" Hayes immediately regained his energy when he heard that he wanted to make money.

"It's not my grades. Adidas is looking for you. They have already designed sneakers for you. I want you to take a look. They will shoot commercials in a few days." Gao Tongxuan took out the shoe box from the bag with a smile and handed it to Heye. "Here's a sample," S said.

Hayes took the shoebox, his hands trembling with excitement. "Is this the legendary sneaker named after me?"

"Hehe, that's right, the Hayes generation."

"YES! YES!" Hayes clenched his fist and almost jumped up in excitement.After signing with Adidas for half a month, his sneakers finally appeared.

Opening the box, the Power is a pair of red and black sneakers that look very nice.

He feels a sense of accomplishment now, and in his view, this is a rare honor.

The sneakers worn by NBA stars have always been the focus of attention of fans. A good sneaker not only needs good technical support, but also needs good stars to endorse it. The role of stars is the best way for sneakers to break through the market.

To analyze whether a player is popular, the most objective point is to look at the sales of the sneakers he endorsed and the algebra of the sneaker series.

Hayes has now rolled out the first generation.I liked the Jordan series back then, how many people will like his shoes in the future?How many generations will he have in the future?
"Did Adidas say when it will shoot the commercial? Is there any other request? When will this shoe start selling?" Hayes held a shoe in his hand and looked at it again and again.

"The advertisement is just recently. When you are on vacation, there is no requirement. The details of your endorsement are written in the previous contract. After the sale price of this sneaker, you will also get a certain percentage of the share. As long as the sales are better, you The more you earn. Hehe, I'm just in charge of spreading the word, how much you earn depends on yourself."

Hayes is very confident. He knows his own advantages. He has experienced draft failures and entered the NBA undrafted. He started playing with a 10-day short contract and has become the main starter this year.This is definitely a good inspirational story that attracts the attention of fans.

His name has begun to be known to NBA fans all over the world.Especially in China, he has a large number of fans.He can speak Chinese, and his autographs to fans are always accompanied by the Chinese word "whirlwind". "Hai Ye" has become his nickname in China, and some fans call him Hei Xuanfeng (Li Kui) because of his signature.

The sales of Hayes' No. 44 jersey in China have skyrocketed, surpassing Yao Ming in one fell swoop, and he is not far from Tracy McGrady.

With the support of Chinese fans, in the All-Star voting that has already begun, Hayes also surpassed Duncan at the power forward position in the Western Conference and ranked first.

All of this is enough to prove one thing, he is very popular!Maybe not as strong as Duncan and Nowitzki, but fans like him.

With Hayes' current luxury data and the team's performance, the sneaker fire is almost certain.Even if he can't compare with Garnett, Iverson, and Kobe, he should be able to compete with many All-Star players.He only signed a one-year contract with Adidas. I wonder how much the next contract will be?

Hayes is not greedy for money, but no one thinks too much money.Just thinking about how many billions he can earn when he retires, he feels so refreshed!

With the introduction of the Hayes generation, the 2006-2007 season, the famous "Hayes Tornado" in NBA history officially kicked off!
Thinking of making money, Hayes suddenly had another inspiration. It seemed that he didn't need to waste any effort to make himself a super rich man.

He looked at Gao Tongxuan and asked, "Tongxuan, you must have many friends in China, right? Can you help me open a Chinese stock market account?"

Gao Tongxuan thought she didn't hear clearly, and asked, "What did you say?"

"I said to help me open a stock account in China, I want to trade in stocks." Hayes laughed.

"Why don't you speculate in the United States and want to open a Chinese account?" Gao Tongxuan didn't know much about things. She didn't know much about stocks. Could it be that Chinese stocks are easier to make money?

"Just open one for me, no need to ask so many questions, haha." Hayes said confidently.

"Really?" Gao Tongxuan froze for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's easy to open an account, but you don't understand the situation in China at all, so how can you speculate?"

"You don't have to worry about it. It's agreed, help me fix it as soon as possible. It must be within half a month."

The Chinese bull market is approaching in 2007, and Hayes, the stock god, is here!
