Chapter 58 The NBA President's Visit
"It's a sure kill, Radar's three-pointer kills the Mavericks!"
"Before the game-winner, Radar made 2 of 8 three-pointers, but Radar still dared to shoot. Radar was born for the game-winner!"
"No mercy at critical moments, only China Wings Radar!"
"You are the darling of the world, a living legend, and a winner under the lights!"
In a certain live broadcast room, Zhou Zhou roared excitedly. He was more excited than Radar and more excited than his Spurs teammates.
As excited as Zhou Zhou were Wu Hao, Fang Lu and others, as well as thousands of Chinese fans, who didn't want their favorite star to become a hero on the court.
Radar was surrounded by his teammates as he returned to the locker room, and the claws in the crowd once again reached for his black hair.
"Lei, you are so great, so amazing, I..." Ade said excitedly.
"I can't describe how I feel now, I feel great too!" Radar answered Aldridge again using the words he just answered to the media.
In the last attack, as the former core, Ade could only sit off the court.
Radar has become the biggest contributor to the Spurs' five-game winning streak.
The radar was not good in this game. He made 3 of 9 three-pointers, 5 of 7 two-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 23 points and 21 assists. The number of assists in a single game hit a career high.
The 21 assists in a single game are also comparable to famous stars such as Chris Paul and Steve Nash. A rookie is comparable to NBA legends, and a rookie is on the NBA record list.
In addition to radar being crucial to the Spurs' victory today, the performance of Aldridge and Boltel was also crucial.
Ade scored 25 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block, which was a normal performance. Jacob Boltl scored a personal high of 24 points and 15 rebounds in a double-double.
The Spurs returned to San Antonio from Dallas, and Radar was welcomed by many fans. They held Radar signs and posters outside AT&T Arena, and they welcomed the San Antonio hero home.
Having completed two buzzer-beaters within a month, Radar's performance completely conquered the media in the big country. Even ESPN praised Radar this time.
"I have never seen a Chinese defender with such amazing skills, excellent overall view, and big heart at critical moments. He is the best defender among this rookie class!"
When Wang Qinan showed the report to Radar, Radar laughed it off and just followed the wind.
On November 20, Radar and Wang Qinan participated in the last endorsement shooting event and then went into training.
At night, the radar entered the super aiming system and looked at the available skill points. It was 145 points.
Although he scored a three-pointer against Dallas, apart from his confidence when taking the shot, it was more about luck.
When many players in the NBA are not feeling good, they will keep shooting to find the feeling. Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and James Harden all have bad feelings, and they once had 7 missed shots.
embarrassing moments.
There is also Kobe who used to be crazy about hitting the iron. He is not afraid of hitting the iron and keeps shooting to find the touch. However, there is no way. Who makes Kobe the absolute core of the Lakers? He has unlimited power to hit the iron.
Radar is different from them. He can also look for feelings through shooting, but he is in the Spurs. The Spurs do not allow players to play so confidently, and Radar does not want to take up too many shots.
He has super aiming, and he can improve his various statistics through the system.
Radar did not hesitate and directly spent 100 skill points to increase the three-point shooting percentage from 60 to 80. This is a very scary improvement. If ordinary players are allowed to achieve such an improvement, it may take several years of practice. With a systematic
It is willfulness.
The river flows eastward, and the super aim is the cow!
On November 21st, the Spurs faced the Atlanta Hawks at the AT&T Center.
As Radar's popularity skyrocketed, the Spurs' home ticket sales were actually better than those in the playoffs. The venue was packed and the venue was even more crowded, with red flags waving, gongs and drums roaring, and firecrackers blasting!
It's simple that they came to see Radar. Some people held up Radar's jersey number, and others wrote Radar's name in crooked Chinese.
Hawks players, Collins, Trae Young and others felt that there was too much pressure. This was the second time the two teams met this season. Although they lost the first time, there was no such pressure.
Today's three-point shooting was on the radar, which was completely different from the last game. In the first quarter, they made 3 of 4 shots and 2 of 2 two-pointers. One person scored 13 points. The Spurs opened the point difference to two in the first quarter.
number of digits.
The Hawks can only rely on Trae Young's performance to barely score. Trae Young may become a Trae Young today.
In the second and third quarters, Radar scored and assisted without error, and occasionally made a steal, which widened the point difference. At the end of the three quarters, Radar scored 28 points, 11 assists and 4 steals.
Manu held the fingerprint machine and placed it in front of Radar. Come on, Lei, it's time to clock out.
88 to 65, the fourth quarter completely became a bad time. The Spurs came on the bench with all their substitutes. The Eagles counterattacked to no avail and had to give up.
In the end, the Spurs easily defeated the Hawks, beating Atlanta twice this season and extending their winning streak to 6 games.
After the game, the Spurs welcomed a special guest.
In the office of Spurs head coach Popovich, team manager Bufus was accompanying him, and the person who came was unexpectedly NBA commissioner Adam Silver.
Radar came to the office, and Adam Silver, whose head was shining brightly, took the initiative to greet Radar: "Hi, Lei, nice to meet you."
Radar shook hands with Silver and returned: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Adam Silver."
President Adam Silver first praised Radar, saying that you are the best player in China, an excellent defender of the Spurs, and a killer on the court.
Then Adam finally explained the purpose of his visit. He saw the key to reopening the Chinese market. Due to various reasons, China Central Television Sports Channel had stopped broadcasting NBA games.
In China, only TX Video currently broadcasts every game. Previously, TX Sports broadcast mainly NBA teams such as the Rockets, Lakers, and Bucks. However, since the start of the NBA this year, the number of live broadcasts of Spurs games has increased a lot.
There is another reason. Maybe with the advent of the NBA small ball era, the viewing experience is indeed not as good as before, so the NBA league is expanding its market, especially the major market of China, and radar is the key to opening this market.
In fact, there is no need for Radar to do anything. As long as Radar plays well, it is the biggest publicity for the NBA.
As the president of the NBA, Adam Silver took the initiative to come to take care of a rookie. This was a rare thing in a century and gave Radar enough face.
Perhaps in this matter, the only ones that can rival Radar are Duncan and the chosen one, LeBron James, whom countless teams have ruined.
Adam Silver also invited Radar to have dinner, but Lei Da refused. He said that he was still adapting to the NBA's tight schedule and he needed to rest. Thank you to the president for his kindness.
