Xie Kai was in China and saw the news that James "going home" when he was browsing his phone. He was a little shocked and soon felt that this made sense again. If James wanted to leave the Heat and decide on the second place, then returning to the Cavaliers is the most acceptable result at the moment.

The Cavaliers did not enter the playoffs last season. James, as a Heat, returned to his hometown to help the team compete for the championship. Whether in terms of gimmick or reason, it sounds much better than joining other teams.

Xie Kai felt that James was not purely out of helping his hometown team realize his dream of becoming a champion. He considered a lot, including outside public opinion, personal reputation, legend, etc., which were definitely carefully considered.

In fact, if you think about it on the other hand, there are many teams that want James. If you consider the reputation, the ones he can really choose are the Heat and the Cavaliers. If you stay in the Heat and continue to be brother basketball, no one will say anything; if you go back to the Cavaliers, hometown basketball, no one will say anything.

Moreover, in Xie Kai's opinion, although the Heat entered the finals last season and the Cavaliers did not enter the playoffs, if we really want to say the potential of the two teams, the latter is better. The Heat are obviously old, and Wade and Yiban Taoist are no longer at the peak; the Cavaliers have young talents like Irving Waiters, and they do not lack talent, but they lack a real boss and a leader. And the entire league is suitable for their leader, James is one of them.

If the Cavaliers were a powerful Eastern Conference last season, James might not go back, and the Cavaliers boss would not put down his figure and invite him. The conflict between the two was open and the seeds were very deep. However, in the four years since James left, the Cavaliers did not make the playoffs in a single playoffs, but the No. 3 picks were won, which is really lucky and ironic.

Although many gangsters complain about James' strength, he is really strong. He can quickly make a bottom team a playoff team. His existence is to ensure the lower limit because he is strong. But to win the championship, it is not enough to rely on him alone. After all, basketball belongs to 5 people.

Even Jordan would not be able to win the championship without the triangular offensive system of Zen master, the top support Pi Erye, and excellent character players such as Dazhe and Cole.

Xie Kai was deeply touched by this point. If he did not have the top inside strength of the Black and White Two Bears, he would not think it would be too difficult for him to lead the team alone to beat a top-level basketball team like the Spurs.

On July 16, Mike Miller joined the Cleveland Cavaliers with a two-year, $5.5 million contract. As the Heat's "one-star" scorer that year, no one was surprised that he defected to James.

The NBA free agent market in the United States is very lively, and in China, Xie Kai is training on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau at an altitude of 5,000 meters.

Plateau training exercises breathing ability and lung function. At high altitude and under hypoxia, training is very effective.

Xie Kai has a good physique and has no altitude sickness. This is not the first time he has undergone plateau training. When he was in the United States, he had been to Denver and Salt Lake City. However, the plateaus there are all sons compared to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in Greater China.

Training is boring, but Xie Kai doesn't do it and feel boring. He loves basketball, and even when he loves the most, he loves himself more than he loves himself. This love makes him not bored when training.

Now he is the top superstar in the league. His dreams of all sizes have been realized, but now there are still many challenges in front of him. The most recent one is to win three consecutive championships and establish a dynasty.

In the entire NBA 30 teams, except for Huang Green, no team has completed three consecutive championships, and even the Spurs have not. Therefore, the difficulty of completing three consecutive championships outside Huang Green is considered hell level.

The Grizzlies are very lucky to have the best combat power of the Black and White Two Bears and Xie Kai without the No. 1 pick. This kind of opportunity is hard to come by. They will definitely not give up the opportunity to win three consecutive championships, even if there is no future for the time being.

During the training in Xiekai Plateau, his agent Saidis Forchel brought good news.

Sadies Fauchel helped Xie Kai choose an endorsement, which is the sports function drink Gatorade.

Gatorade is a designated sports function beverage in the NBA and is the only partner. So if Xie Kai endorses the sports function beverage before, he would tear off the label or put it in a bottle of Gatorade if he wanted to drink it during the game.

Now, Gatorade has come to him...

Since Xie Kai won the MVP, he is so popular that he is already the top in the league, so he has no shortage of endorsements. Now, Saidis Fauchere is choosing endorsements, rather than signing like in the past.

In the end, Xie Kai and Gatorade signed a three-year total value of $12 million. This endorsement exceeded the three-year $10 million he signed with General Motors last year, and has become a new high in his endorsement career.

In addition to Gatorade, Zhou Jing helped Xie Kai find an endorsement, which is Jack Ma's Alibaba. The two parties agreed to sign a contract for 50 million yuan in four years.

Xie Kai became the spokesperson of Alibaba and the image spokesperson of Taobao!

In addition to Alibaba, Zhou Jing also helped Xie Kai find another endorsement, Michelin, the leader in the tire industry! The two parties signed a three-year contract with a total value of 8 million euros.

Xie Kai conducted plateau training for more than half a month, then took a break, shot two advertisements for the merchant he was endorsing, and went to the Taklamakan Desert in the west to conduct the next stage of special training.

The focus of plateau special training and desert special training is different, and the direction of training is also different. If you follow it immediately, it will make it difficult for the body to adapt.

The purpose of training is not to torture yourself, but to improve the limits of your body, so you need room for adaptation and adjustment. Xie Kai has a deep understanding of this.

Last year's special training in desert made Xie Kai's skin darker than one level. He has started special training again before he has returned from white, and he has also put his skin color aside.

There is no way, for training and to improve yourself, there is no way to sacrifice a little skin color.

Xie Kai is an athlete, not an idol star, and his skin color is not that important. Of course, Louis Koo turns darker and becomes even more red, which is an unsolved mystery in the entertainment industry.

Desert training is indeed very hard. The scorching sun and the heat of the sand alone are not something that ordinary people can bear. Xie Kai has always believed in the saying "If you endure hardships, you will be the best person", so no matter how hard it is, he can tolerate it.
