The rise of basketball legends

On December 12th, Chen Yan lay dead at home for a day.

Although he has good physical strength, he is not an iron man. He has three matches in four days and is a strong opponent every game. This kind of intensity is very difficult.

During the rest period, Chen Yan basically entertains, relaxes, and adjusts his state.

He doesn't have to worry about money. He is a minority shareholder of Li Ning. He owns many real estate properties, which are waiting for appreciation. The endorsement contracts are endless, and various investments are also going well. Chen Yan is a time traveler with a God's perspective. There is basically no error in investment, as long as he controls the general direction and the specific details, let the team do it.

Suns owner Robert Savor has also made a lot of money in the past year. Due to Chen Yan's influence, many Chinese businesses have taken the initiative to find Suns to cooperate and put up billboards in the American West Arena.

A game is 5-8w, less than tens of millions of dollars a year. Advertising is only a small part of the revenue. The market value of the Suns has increased by 36.7% compared with last year. There are reasons for the Suns to win the championship, but a large part of the credit and China is closely related, and Chen Yan's joining suddenly made the Suns the home team of domestic fans, and the attention has increased significantly.

Back in 2004, American businessman Robert Sarver bought the Suns, a struggling Western Conference team, for $4.01 million. For this owner, he entered the basketball court at a good time.At that time, the Suns had been weak in the West for several years. The former core controller Marbury was cleared out of the team. The Suns only had a group of players who were not very eye-catching at the time.

However, in just four years, this once weak team lifted the championship trophy, which was something Robert Savor could not have imagined when he took over the Suns.

Robert Savor I just want to make a little money, I really don't want to win the championship!

In any case, the boss of the Suns now has both fame and fortune, and the media has made him the luckiest boss in the NBA among the judges, a model of successful bottom-hunting.

It used to be said that Dayao was a cash cow, but now it seems that Chen Yan is the real cash cow. As an outside player, his commercial value is much higher than that of a center forward.

This is only Chen Yan's second season, and he still has great potential to be tapped, both in terms of skills and commercial value.

After a day's rest, Chen Yan came back to life with full blood. This is the advantage of youth. In the morning training, veterans such as Nash and Grant Hill still showed fatigue.

When people get old, their physical recovery will be slower. It's like going to sleep all night when you are young and then coming back to life. When you are middle-aged and staying overnight for a week, you may not be able to recover.

After the training, Nash invited Chen Yan to come to his house as a guest. Nash said that the two young daughters miss this godfather very much, but Chen Yan declined. He really has no time today, and he has already made an appointment with Taylor Swift to shoot the new song "i-gotta-feeling" mv.

After training, Chen Yan flew directly to Los Angeles.

Taylor Swift had been waiting at the airport for a long time, and she gave Chen Yan a big hug as soon as they met.

Taylor Swift drove Chen Yan to a hamburger restaurant called "In and Out", which was her favorite snack bar in Los Angeles.

The two ate hamburgers while chatting about the upcoming MV filming.

"Baby, do you have any thoughts on the MV?" Taylor Swift asked.

Chen Yan shook his head: "Listen to you, you are a professional in this area."

Taylor Swift thought about it: "Why don't you go to the basketball court to shoot, it happens to be your field of expertise, and the rhythm of this song is very strong, which fits well with the dribbling in basketball."

Chen Yan replied without hesitation: "Farewell, usually the audience has watched enough of me playing ball, and playing the MV will make them look tired, why not change the scene, I think such a hilarious song is very suitable for nightclubs or parties It was a good shot."

"Don't you dislike going to that kind of place?" Taylor Swift asked.

"It's okay to go occasionally, and it can change the usual image. I think many viewers will be interested."

After hearing this, Meimei smiled: "Didn't you listen to me? I think you have a lot of ideas."

Chen Yan also smiled: "What do you think of my idea?"

"It's great. Actually, I thought about shooting in a nightclub before. The intro of this song is too magical, and it fits the atmosphere very well. I'm worried that you don't like nightclubs." Taylor Swift said.

"Do I look so conservative?" Chen Yan asked back.

"Anyway, I don't seem to have been to a nightclub with you yet, every time I suggest you shirk for various reasons." Taylor Swift said.

"Hahaha, then we can go together tonight."

"It's for work, not for sex." Taylor Swift rolled her eyes.

The shooting that night went very smoothly, and the shooting was finished in less than two hours. What Chen Yan valued was that the quality of the songs did not require a high requirement for the mv, as long as the atmosphere was up.

Most of the mv actors are men and women who come to nightclubs to play, and many of them are Lakers fans. However, these fans did not shout their favorite slogan "Fake Chen" when they faced Chen Yan at close range, but came up in turn to ask for autographs And a group photo, very real...

The day after the filming of the mv ended, headlines such as Chen Yan's nightclub hilarity, and he didn't come home all night could be seen in the news.

The media is good at catching rumors and exaggerating facts. Chen Yan got used to it after more than a year in the league.

Chen Yan also didn't explain that he was working. Anyway, in the eyes of the fans, if he had a good record, he would go to a nightclub to relax.

On December 12, the Suns played against the Bucks at home.

In this game, the Bucks players played against the Suns in order to brush up the data, which made the Suns play very well. In the end, the Suns scored a season-high 132 points in this game and beat the Bucks 132 to 113 .

Seven Suns scored in double figures in this campaign. Chen Yan and Stoudemire both scored 7+ points. Azubuike played the best on the bench and received 30 points and 20 rebounds.

The statistics of the Bucks are very good. Reed scored 31 points, Bogut scored 20 points and 11 rebounds, and Villanueva scored 23 points. But anyone who has watched the game knows that these people are purely for the sake of scoring. The Bucks The management also acquiesced in their approach. The Bucks have always wanted to rebuild, but because of Reid's huge salary of US$1572w and US$1704w in the next two seasons, no team can find it.

If Reid is allowed to let go and make the data more beautiful, it will be more attractive during the transfer period.

For the fans, this kind of completely undefended game is not attractive. It is more like an in-team training.

A day later, the Suns played back-to-back Knicks at home.

The situation of the Knicks is similar to that of the Bucks. The management let these players let go. Only in this way can they exchange for a better bargaining chip in the next transfer window.

The Suns created the Madison Garden tragedy at home to the Knicks last season, killing them by 58 points. This season, the Knicks lineup has not changed much. Those players now have shadows watching the Suns.

The Knicks didn't score their first sports goal until 9 minutes and 17 seconds into the game. In the first quarter, they only made 25 goals out of 7 shots, and the shooting percentage was 28%, which was terrifying.

The Knicks' sluggish performance lasted the entire game, and finally they lost to the Suns 76 to 101 away.

The Knicks' management is speechless. Why can't these players even understand the statistics?

Commentator Mike Breen laughed after the game: "The Knicks' poor performance made the Suns look like a strong defensive team."

This joke is basically the epitome of the whole game.

The Suns continued to maintain a strong momentum in the next four games, extending the winning streak to 15 games.

After three days of rest, on December 12th, the Suns are preparing to launch their 25-game winning streak at home. Their opponent is the Los Angeles Lakers. This is a "Christmas dinner" specially prepared by the league for fans!
