From an emotional point of view, Jiang Hao is of course inclined to cooperate with domestic brands. After all, after so many years in the United States, he has never heard of any Chinese brand of sneakers that is widely known around the world.

As a basketball player, he not only hopes to help the Chinese men's basketball team in the national team, but at the same time, of course he also hopes that China's national brand can go global.

However, from a rational perspective of quality, there is no doubt that Nike and Adidas are the first choices. It is difficult for Chinese sneaker brands to compare with these international brands at this stage.

"Isn't there still some time before my sneaker contract expires? We'll wait and see. You know what's most important to me right now."

Jiang Hao said.

"Of course I know that your current sneaker contract will not expire for some time, but I would like to remind you that we must make a decision on this matter as soon as possible."

Rich Paul waved his hand. Jiang Hao's sneaker contract was the biggest point of making money for him, so he was very concerned about it whether it was for Jiang Hao or for himself.

"Jiang, I may be very busy in the next period, so we can only contact you by phone."

Rich Paul said apologetically before leaving.

Jiang Hao can understand Rich Paul. After all, Rich Paul has more than one player, and there are no big-name players among them. At this point in the playoffs, he must be busy with contracts or other business for each of his players.

.

For example, he has to fly to Cleveland immediately. The Eastern Conference finals are about to begin. Regarding James' business operations, he must go to the front line to make adjustments.

Of course, Rich Paul does not dare to slack off at all when it comes to LeBron James. Although he is no longer the shadow of James, it must be admitted that without James, Rich Paul would not be where he is today.

What's more, until now, his cooperation with LeBron James has yielded the most rewards among all his players. As the number one player in the league, LeBron James's commercial value is no joke.

Sometimes Rich Paul wonders, when Jiang Hao fully grows up, will his commercial value reach the level of LeBron James?

He thinks this is very possible. After all, Jiang Hao represents a market of 1.4 billion or even more than 3 billion people in Asia as a whole.

………

After seeing off Rich Paul, Jiang Hao immediately drove to the training facility. The upcoming Western Conference Finals is no joke, and the defending champions are by no means the Houston Rockets and Portland Trail Blazers.

They will be the team's stumbling block in moving forward. There is even a tacit understanding that whoever can break out of the Western Conference will be the championship.

Jiang Hao is not a person who talks empty words. Since he made a promise in front of the fans last night, he must go all out to fulfill it.

The basis for realizing your promise is to prepare carefully.

When Jiang Hao arrived at the training hall, he discovered that he was not the first player to appear here.

Kawhi Leonard, Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker, etc.

Jiang Hao was a little embarrassed. He seemed to be the last one, even the members of the coaching staff were already in the arena.

Jiang Hao nodded at Popovich and then walked to the physical fitness room.

I have to admit, seeing his teammates preparing so seriously, Jiang Hao not only felt at ease, but also felt a little more urgent.

He likes this atmosphere.

After staying in the physical fitness room for almost an hour, Jiang Hao did not directly start basketball training, but went to the video room again.

This is his training habit.

Every time during the pre-match training session of a major competition, he always sets aside more than an hour for himself to watch the video.

Jiang Hao feels that this method suits him very well.

In the dark and quiet video room, Jiang Hao carefully watched the video of Stephen Curry's upcoming playoff game.

It's not Jiang Hao's fault. After watching it for a while, he took the initiative to turn off the video because he was a little disappointed. Stephen Curry's performance since the playoffs is still the same. He is not there at the critical moment of the game, but the number of outside shots has increased.

It's always the most.

To be honest, Stephen Curry like this can only play with the wind. Once the Warriors fall into a headwind, his voice will become smaller and smaller.

On the contrary, Kevin Durant is the most terrifying at this time.

It's not that Jiang Hao doesn't trust Leonard, but Durant is too powerful. In today's league, if Kawhi Leonard is called the strongest defensive player in the league, then Durant will definitely be the best in the league.

Strong offensive player.

When it comes to the strongest spear and the strongest shield, I have to admit that the spear is still more powerful.

Jiang Hao knows that Leonard is a strong player, but he may still have a hard time facing the current Durant.

Even if we are optimistic, Leonard can limit Durant, what about the Spurs?

So Jiang Hao started telling himself from this moment that if the Spurs want to be the final winner in the next Western Conference finals, then his performance is particularly important.

When Jiang Hao came out of the video room, Popovich called everyone together, and then there was a training game.

Before the start of the team's training game, Popovich told everyone to try their best in the game, and the bench team has a heavy task because it needs to simulate the Warriors' style of play.

Jiang Hao always has some unexpected ideas. He suggested to Popovich that the starting team should simulate the Warriors' play style, because the starting team is ultimately the starting team, and playing in the Western Conference finals still depends on the starting team.

Performance.

In fact, the same is true for the Warriors. Although their bench lineup is also the league's top strength, there is still a certain gap compared with the Spurs.

As the most luxurious starting lineup in the league, the Warriors usually rely on the starting lineup to solve games.

When encountering a team like the Spurs, if their starting lineup cannot perform well, they may lose to the Spurs.

Popovich accepted Jiang Hao's suggestion because he felt that Jiang Hao's suggestion was good. To deal with a team like the Warriors, one should take the initiative and be proactive in tactical preparations to win the game.

In the following training matches, Jiang Hao performed very well, even better than Leonard.

This makes Popovich and other members of the coaching staff extremely excited. For them, Jiang Hao is definitely the most critical player in the Western Conference Finals. To a certain extent, he is the upper limit of the Spurs. If Jiang Hao performs well,

Eye, then the Warriors may be eliminated, and their team will have the opportunity to move on and advance to the finals. This scene is what they dream of.
