Chapter 32 A few things off the court
At the end of the game, the Magic defeated the Cavaliers 91:86 and got a good start in the Chinese tournament.
Li Chengming played the most 15 minutes since the preseason - just the full time. He took 7 shots and hit 5 goals. He scored a total of 11 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and a steal. He had no free throws. He was very efficient and effective.
Very big.
Of course, the biggest contributors to the Magic's victory were Howard and Nelson. Howard scored 31 points and 14 rebounds today, beating the Cavaliers inside. Nelson also scored 24 points and 6 assists.
For the Cavaliers, James only scored 17 points and made 5 turnovers. Hughes and Shannon Brown were both in good form. I can only say that Cavaliers fans should be happy to see their performance and pray that the regular season can be maintained at best.
After the game, Li Chengming naturally enjoyed the "local" advantage. Although Howard and James attracted more attention from media reporters because of their star status, the fans at the scene were the loudest for Li Chengming. Everyone felt that watching this today
A worthwhile trip.
Not to mention that the two teams played anxiously until the last moment to decide the winner. Many of the goals, including Li Chengming's goal, can be said to be top-five performances.
It can be said that there is competition and there is also entertainment.
As for those people who scolded Van Gundy during halftime - hey, did they scold him?
Oh, maybe I heard it wrong. It was Jeff Van Gundy who was scolded. Who told him to cause Dayao to be injured? Who else would you scold him? (Jeff:???)
"Hello Li Chengming, I am a reporter from Jiulang. I would like to ask you how you feel about your performance today?"
Although Li Chengming is not the biggest name in the game, domestic reporters still won't let him go.
But Li Chengming is in a good mood today, not only because he performed well in the victory, but also because he just received a 5-point reward - the system judged that he successfully defended James once, which barely qualified him and gave him a consolation prize, so he didn't mind answering more questions.
question.
Of course, he didn't get carried away so easily, especially in the final stage of the game. Although the coach didn't say it explicitly, he still realized his performance that he didn't dare to play at that time, which probably lowered his rating in the coach's mind.
In fact, he was very aggrieved. He felt that he was just pursuing rationality. It was not that he didn't dare to fight, but he seemed to be a little afraid of taking responsibility. Otherwise, there would have been no double-teaming at the time, and he should have gone directly.
Maybe it’s a matter of experience, I get easily panicked, and my teammates can’t redirect it back to you just because you passed it out and ask you to try it again. After all, he’s not the core of the team yet.
"I think it's just okay."
"If you were asked to rate your performance today, how would you rate it?"
"Is it a passing score of 6? Then give it a score of 7. I think there is still a lot of room for improvement, but give yourself some encouragement."
Inevitably, some people asked questions related to the Arab League. After all, the domestic media seemed to be interested in hyping them up as the "double pride" of the younger generation, although Li Chengming felt very embarrassed.
Li Chengming still treats this kind of problem the same way, not commenting, only blessing.
"I just saw you talking to another Mr. Li. Do you like his movies?"
It is worth mentioning that today’s game was also star-studded on the sidelines, which was just as impressive as on the field. Artists such as Edison Chen, Jet Lee, Black (this Black is not that Black), Sun Wen of the women’s football team, and saxophone master Kenny
.G all came to watch the game.
Li Chengming was even asked by reporters to take photos with them. This was a good publicity stunt for both parties, so the scene seemed to be very enjoyable.
Naturally, Li Chengming doesn't mind continuing to cheer in front of reporters, "I like it very much. I have basically watched all the movies, including Once Upon a Time, Chen Zhen, Fang Shiyu, they are all classic..."
This is true to my heart. After all, if you don’t watch Li Hecheng in action movies, then what action movies should you watch?
Although the quality of their films in recent years...
After the interview was over, Li Chengming found his father, or to be precise, he was found by his father, and then listened to him talk about what he was talking about.
Li's father not only accompanied Li Chengming to play ball, he also had the work of an agent to do.
When he was in the United States, although Li Chengming attracted some attention because of the summer league, his popularity within the team was not as good as that of his big brothers, nor could he keep up with the popularity of popular rookies such as Durant outside. In other words, he helped take photos at his neighbor McGilton's house.
The museum took a brochure.
But it is different in China. Even Sun Dasheng, who has not yet signed with the NBA, has received many business offers after being selected. Li became famous because of the summer league, the training camp of the American team and the continuous exposure of this Chinese national game.
, the popularity has been catching up with the space exchange.
So Li's father received a lot of quotes as soon as he came back. This is because Li Chengming has just entered the market, and everyone is still more cautious, so the quotes given are not high.
Father Li also understands this, and he is not only knowledgeable, he has also consulted people in the industry before to understand the market and rules. In this case, it is difficult to ask for a high price, or he will wait until the next development of Li Chengming.
Let's talk about it when the value rises, or sign a short-term contract.
This has its own advantages and disadvantages for both parties. For the brand, a short-term contract can avoid risks, the price is not high and the term is short, and it can be terminated at any time. However, if Li Chengming develops well in the future, they will be somewhat at a loss and will have to use it in the future.
The higher the price, the more you can continue to win.
As for Li Chengming, the income from the short-term contract is unstable, but in the long run, just like the rookie contract, he will have the opportunity to sign a better contract earlier.
In the final analysis, it still depends on whether Li Chengming can achieve greater growth in the future.
If he can secure his position in the team's rotation, even if he does not reach Yao's level, he will definitely hope to become the second player in the domestic basketball world (commercially speaking).
"Oh, by the way, Keke's Asia representative has also approached us and wants you to be the Asia's publicity ambassador."
Li Chengming was a little surprised, and then said with a smile: "Then I won't just drink happy water from now on?"
Li's father immediately rolled his eyes, but he also knew that it was impossible to stop his son from eating. In the past, Li Chengming almost suffered from stomach problems, which made the couple scared.
And now my son seems to be really losing weight. Judging from the weight comparison, the effect is remarkable, so there is nothing to say about being greedy occasionally.
This also made him support Li Chengming to play in the NBA from the bottom of his heart, and he succeeded in losing weight through this.
In fact, the team has a dedicated nutritionist to arrange nutritious meals for players like Li Chengming. Even the trainer, at Van Gundy's request, helped Li Chengming develop a special weight loss booklet.
However, Li Chengming is not used to eating nutritious meals, but he can persist in weight loss training.
In fact, the players themselves are not as taboo as the outside world thinks, because they consume too much in training, especially people like Li Chengming who now spends every day in the training hall without going out to play like other teammates.
If there are not enough calories to replenish the body, it may not even be enough for exercise. If you eat some junk food, it will be easily digested and excreted, and it will not have such a big impact.
Of course, it is good to eat and drink less. Although Li Chengming refused nutritious meals, he also tried hard to restrain his appetite.
But he also had an idea in his mind. If the system could keep helping him lose weight, then when he lost weight to a certain level, could he gain weight again, and then lose weight again, and the cycle repeats?
"By the way, your mother is coming too."
"Mom?"
"Yes," Father Li couldn't help but smile. The couple had a very good relationship, and after all, they hadn't seen each other for a few months. "She asked for leave and wanted to come and see us."
"Okay, I want to see my mom too. Well, I miss the braised pork that my mom cooked..."
Sure enough, he was thinking about eating it. Father Li rolled his eyes immediately and said: "When we came here, your mother also met your school's physical education teacher. He wanted to ask when we are free here and can go back.
…”
Needless to say, what are you going to do? A player who plays in the NBA is so important to the physical education teacher that he can be directly used as a tiger-skin banner.
When I think of teachers, I think of school, and when I think of school, I think of Liu Nalian.
However, at this time, Li Chengming no longer felt much fluctuation in his heart because of this name, and even felt a little embarrassed.
Speaking of which, he had to "thank" the other party, otherwise where would she be now?
So next time if you have a chance to meet her, smile at her more.
Whose love do you think you are rejecting?
snort!
