Chapter 38 Don't mention the past
Two triple-doubles made Xie Hou the hottest basketball player at the end of October.
Before the third game starts, the popularity will continue. People should discuss whether he can continue his triple-double performance in the third game.
Because he refused to expose the Nike incident, he had a "representative work" that was "You are so beautiful" at the level of "Chicken".
It turns out that it is just basketball fans who know how awesome he is, and many non-basketball fans have also heard of his deeds.
However, this popularity is brought by a negative image.
Greed, ignorant, and highly regarded (Xie Hou admitted this), and did not have a correct assessment of himself...
The fans were ridiculing and making jokes. When those celebrities who could never make a lot of money in their lives (limited by the times) heard about this, they were even more angry and angry.
Dr. J, a 76-person celebrity with a career salary of only 10 million yuan, said when participating in the espn program: "I am really unable to understand the young people nowadays."
Barkley even said in the TNT Studio: "Arthur may have extremely high basketball talent. We can almost conclude that he will have a wonderful basketball career, but a greedy heart can never be filled. He really doesn't know that there are many seniors who are even better than him who have only received less than one million annual salary in their entire lives? Didn't he know that many of them don't even have the inheritance of their own funeral fees?"
The Pacers's legend, George McGuinness, who dominated ABA with Dr. J in the 1970s, expressed dissatisfaction with the junior: "If I were Arthur, I would not refuse."
The old seniors criticized, but the current players who are capable but are ignored. It is certain that they will never get Nike's attention in their entire lives also expressed their dissatisfaction.
For example, the Pacers' opponent in the next game, the Eagles' star, and the 96 generation's Tanhua Sherif Rahim.
Rahim, who averaged 20 points per game in six of his seven years of career, is an object overlooked by sneaker vendors. He has reached his peak and expressed strong dissatisfaction with what Xie Hou has done.
"Young people today don't need to make any results to get big contracts, which is ridiculous. People in our generation all perform first and then get big contracts that belong to us. After only a few games, the sneaker deals diligently offered fat contracts. I don't want to say whether this is right or wrong, but since you have taken advantage of it, just accept it honestly. You must know that greed is not enough to swallow an elephant."
What puzzled Xie Hou was that he did not steal or rob, so he did not have the right to choose? Why did he have to accept Nike's contract?
This incident caused him to be criticized by countless people. Someone in the company called to ask, and he half-jokingly took the incident over.
Then the time goes from October to November.
On the first day of November, Xie Hou followed the team to Atlanta, which is Rahim's team.
Xie Hou did not forget what he said in the news. Those retired famous players can't do it, can't do it?
With this idea, Xie Hou played a relatively bad game.
There is no grain outside the three-point line, and no goal is scored on the free throw line. If he does not adjust his playing style in time, he is likely to score zero and be inefficient.
Xie Hou's poor touch also affected his teammates. When they faced a team like the Hawks, which was determined to play against them, they not only failed to play at the corresponding level, but instead put themselves in a tough battle.
It was an ugly game, with the Pacers struggling to beat the Hawks by 4 points with an overall advantage.
Although Xie Hou performed poorly, he relied on adjusting his playing style in the second half, and still scored 15 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists. He also had 5 big hats on the defensive end, 3 of which were given to Hashem.
The team won three consecutive victories, Xie Hou played a stinky ball, and the world was very happy.
That night, the Pacers' team decided to wait until the next morning before leaving.
Xie Hou originally wanted to use a notebook in the room to discuss his performance tonight with netizens, but people kept knocking on his door and asking him to gather in Miller's room.
Although Miller's orientation is normal, there will be no danger of being defiled when going to his room, Xie Hou would rather stay in the room and surf the Internet quietly.
There was really no way behind him, so he could only stop interacting with netizens (the particularly "friendly" type), close the notebook, and walk out of the room.
He was a little sleepy, but after walking out of the room, he became much more energetic.
"Can you give me a reason to smell your body odor here?" Xie Hou asked at the risk of being beaten to death.
"People who refuse the 80 million endorsement contract are tough," Miller laughed.
They all knew about this, but they didn't know why Xie Hou refused. When they heard Miller's words, the person involved smiled proudly: "Of course, compared to you guys who don't even have a sneaker contract, I speak more than just tough. I feel that my vocal cords are cast from steel!"
Just take this opportunity to ask them what happened.
Artest asked: "Then tell me why you reject Nike's contract? It's not because they gave too little money, right?" (Atai's total career salary is 77.05 million)
What can Xie Hou say? He wanted to explain that he didn't want to sign a contract smaller than James, but saying so would definitely cause a new round of earthquakes.
If any of these people leaked the news, the outside world would be in a turmoil again.
Therefore, since the whole world thinks he is a lunatic who falls into the eyes of money, wouldn’t it be better if he satisfy the expectations of these snobs and put the hat of “greed for money” on it?
and...
"I'm going to say that I really don't like 80 million in seven years." As Xie Hou said this, everyone's fear changed. "You think I'm greedy for money or narrow-minded, I just don't want to sign this contract! Nike underestimates me too much. A great player like me, I don't have the nerve to contact me if I don't give a 7-year and 100 million contract? I'm simply ashamed of them. When I'm glorious, they won't be qualified to give me 7-year and 100 million in seven years!" (He found that the big hat of greed and arrogance seems to be very suitable for him, too tm)
From now on, Xie Hou can blatantly ask for more rewards when talking about advertising and endorsement. Anyway, he is a greedy and arrogant person. Every business that wants to find him must be mentally prepared first.
Xie Hou was ashamed of the audience just like his mother spoke at home.
Miller turned his face hard toward the terrified Kirilenko: "Is he like this in Russia?"
Kirilenko slowly said: "The condition seems to be worse."
Artest said regretfully: "You must know that even LeBron James has only 90 million for 7 years. Your contract is already big enough. Only the Chosen Son is taller than you!"
"Why is Lei Balong taller than me? I am much better than him!"
"It's LeBron, not Lei Balong, your accent is so bad."
The argument seems to be shifting from Xie Hou's rejection of Nike incident to Xie Hou's mysterious accent, and finally someone remembered what's going on today.
Al Harrington said: "Buddies, aren't we coming together to discuss where to go tonight? Why talk about these sad things?"
It is sad that Xie Hou got a 7-year contract of 80 million - because they dreamed of it. (It is common for most people to not see others)
What makes people even more sad is that this bastard who doesn't know his surname actually rejected Nike's kindness. Not letting him apologize to all NBA players is already a care for the rookie.
When Harrington mentioned, everyone woke up.
Miller is resistant to Atlanta, but going out for three consecutive away games is a hidden rule that the Pacers players pursue.
If the three consecutive wins are achieved at home, as long as they can continue the winning streak to the away game, they will still have to go out and have fun.
There is no way, although the economy in Indianapolis is recovering, it still cannot change the fact that this is a boring city.
The only benefit of Indianapolis is tax payment, but I haven't heard of any celebrities willing to come for so many years. It can be seen that taxes have no impact on the choice of celebrities. The market and attention are the only factors that determine the whereabouts of celebrities (if the geographical location is bad and the tax is high, don't expect anyone to invest).
At this time, a guy who was not open-minded suggested going to the famous Golden Club.
Miller rolled his eyes on the spot. The reason why he had an objection to Atlanta was because of the Golden Club.
This xx dancer club has been providing additional special services to NBA players, Jordan, Ewing,.
Later, the story was revealed, and Ewing admitted in court that he had received 30 "extra service".
From this, people will naturally think of Miller and Jordan.
Ewing is all served like this, how could they be exceptional?
Jordan, who has always valued his personal image, said that he had only drank a few glasses of wine in the Golden Club and did not do anything else. He also took up legal weapons and threatened every media that was preparing to close up the matter. If someone raided the situation for no reason, don't blame me, Mr. Qiao, for not having to die with you.
Jordan's family has a great fortune and a great value. A small star like Miller doesn't have so many weapons to do with him.
He could only clarify himself everywhere, and for a while, so serious that every time he went to the road, he had to answer questions from the Golden Club, and he would say "I, Reggie Miller, really didn't receive extra services in Atlanta".
Because everyone touched Miller's sadness, he had no intention of playing and his plan to go out for fun was ruined.
Miller said he was going to rest and let the others go.
Xie Hou walked out of the room for no reason, thinking that he could return to his bed and continue to "in-depth discussion" with netizens, but as a result, he followed up with a few fart bugs and asked questions about Nike, which was even more annoying than the reporter.
