Chapter 176 Yan Hua's New Sneakers
"Hi, Yan, here are the new sneakers we prepared for you tonight."

At noon on December 2009, 12, when Yan Hua arrived in Denver by the King's special plane, he and his management team met at the hotel where the King stayed. The King will face the Denver Nuggets at the Denver Pepsi Center tonight, Adidas is also planning to take advantage of the Christmas game to launch a special commemorative sneaker for Yan Hua.

In the NBA, it is already an iron law that centers do not sell sneakers. Even Patrick Ewing, who once relied on the big city of New York and sold a lot of sneakers, compared with the contemporary outside players. At that time, the number of sneakers sold was not worth mentioning, and Hakeem Olajuwon, David Robinson, and Shaquille O'Neal, who were the same four centers as Patrick Ewing, It's even more miserable. The three of them combined didn't sell as many signature sneakers as Ewing alone, let alone compared with those outside players. After the four major centers, Yao Ming and Dwight Howard Personally, the signature sneakers that have been launched successively have not received much response.

Therefore, Adidas signed Yan Hua with the treatment of the first brother, which is really a gamble. It is 5 million US dollars in five years, and 4000% of the total sales will be added as a bonus. This level of contract is already a big deal for a center. The price is sky-high, especially the additional clause, which is the only one among all active players in the NBA, so after the details of the contract between Adidas and Yan Hua were revealed, Nike mocked Adidas to the end that it might not even pay Yan Hua's sponsorship fee. can't get it back,
However, with the introduction of the King generation and Yan Hua's crazy performance in the new season, Nike found out that they really missed their eyes this time. The price of Adidas is only 160 US dollars, which is definitely regarded as a civilian sneaker, but the sales volume of the King generation is not ordinary at all. According to the data just released by Adidas, from the official release of the King generation to the end of November, the cumulative sales of the King generation reached . Yan Hua sold 128 million pairs, second only to Michael Jordan and LeBron James in total sales. There is no doubt that the law of centers not selling sneakers has completely failed for Yan Hua.

The sales momentum of the King generation is very good, so Adidas plans to strike while the iron is hot, preparing to launch a special Christmas-style commemorative sneaker for Yan Hua before and after the Christmas game, and the Christmas game against the Nuggets tonight is the model of this sneaker First appearance.

"These shoes are really ugly." Looking at the Christmas tree on the sneakers, Yan Hua couldn't help complaining. I really don't know what kind of aesthetics Adidas designers have. The green Christmas tree is projected on the shoes. The loss is not a hat, otherwise Yan Hua would have to ask them to have a good theory.

. . . . . .

The annual Christmas battle is full of gunpowder, and this year is no exception. The Lakers vs. Magic, Celtics vs. Cavaliers, Spurs vs. Suns, Heat vs. Knicks, Kings vs. Nuggets, five Christmas games, or between rivals The battle, or a repeat of last season's playoffs.

The king and the Nuggets are now in the same relationship as sworn enemies. Although the stars of the two teams are still the same agent, since the king completed the miracle of black seven on the Nuggets, the relationship between the king and the Nuggets There is no room for easing up the relationship anymore, just like the warriors who hacked the Mavericks, basically every matchup after that round of the series will be beaten by the Mavericks. After the game, it was all over. As long as it was playing against the Warriors, the Mavericks were very excited, and they wanted to eat the Warriors alive on the court.

This is true of the Mavericks and Warriors, and so is the King and Nuggets. Two days before the start of the Christmas game, Carmelo Anthony, the head player of the Nuggets, said with a serious face when he was interviewed by reporters that he would never Repeat the mistakes of last season.

Although Carmelo Anthony did not say any threats or provocative words, Yan Hua felt the murderous aura of Carmelo Anthony through the TV screen. In the playoffs of last season, the Nuggets were very unfortunate. The king gave the black seven, but the head of the Nuggets, Carmelo Anthony, has completed the transformation from a superstar with an ability value of 94 to a superstar with an ability value of 95, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Carmelo Anthony, one of the superstars, entered a very crazy state at the beginning of the new season. Although affected by the overall strength and schedule, the record of the Nuggets is not as good as the Lakers, Kings, and Cavaliers , But in the 30 games that have ended, the Nuggets still won 22 of them, and currently have a record of 22 wins and 8 losses, ranking fourth in the Western Conference after the Lakers, Kings, and Suns.

And Carmelo Anthony also played the best performance after entering the NBA this season. He currently ranks second in the league scoring list with an average of 30.2 points per game. Lon Anthony averaged 7.5 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game, all of which are the best since he entered the NBA for 7 seasons. Therefore, compared to last season's Nuggets, the current Nuggets are obviously stronger , or even exaggerated, Carmelo Anthony, whose strength rating has reached 95, is now at least one of the top five stars in the league.

As for Yan Hua, although after the game between the Kings and the Magic, Yan Hua was crowned as the first center, and Yan Hua's current stats of 24.3 points, 13.5 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 3 blocks are also comparable. Call it terror, but there is no way to equate data terror with real strength.

According to the system, Yan Hua has been exposed to the fact that there are no good centers in this era. If we push forward another ten years, with Yan Hua's current ability, all the data will shrink by at least a quarter to a third. And with a strength rating of 92, he can become the number one center in the NBA, and Yan Hua is also the first since the establishment of the NBA.

So for this Christmas game tonight, Yan Hua's attitude is not as optimistic as that of his teammates. Although they eliminated the Nuggets in the playoffs last season, and although they have a huge psychological advantage over the Nuggets, they are still on the ball. In terms of team strength, the Kings actually don't have much advantage.

"No matter what, I won't give up!" Looking at the special commemorative sneakers in front of him, Yan Hua knew that he must not lose in today's game, because once he loses the game , Wearing new sneakers, I am afraid that I will become a laughing stock.

 Thanks for the reward of Stranger Strange Words#, thank you.
