Chapter 132 The first shooting guard in the West?!
To be honest, Adelman has been reflecting on his achievements in the NBA in the past few years. This head coach, who is considered a new generation or a middle-aged generation, has always felt that although his career is short, he has not been so lucky.
Or, I always feel that my career has never been smooth so far, and I will always encounter various problems.
Two years ago, he entered the finals and was soon to become a winner in life, but was blocked by Jordan in the finals and abandoned by the media. He was a coach in the finals and faced the fate of being dismissed in the Trail Blazers.
Now, he has been serving in this team that he has served for ten years and is ready to be appointed. He has finished the last shift this season and left. He knows that Paul Allen will definitely not be able to keep him.
He and most of his team actually don’t have much requirements this season. As long as the regular season record is not that ugly, you can just not continue to be eliminated in the first round of the playoffs. He really doesn’t have much requirements, just want to complete the last stage of the team smoothly.
It was such a simple requirement that he and his team could not achieve, and finally became the "pioneer" of the American media. Last time, they were pushed to the opposite side of Jordan and lost, but this time, they pushed to the opposite side of Lin Han and lost again. What can the loss in such a major game bring in is naturally clear.
After losing this game, Adelman was ready to get out of class early. So, when the Trail Blazers head coach came to the post-match media conference, he looked at the densely packed reporters off the court as if he was about to swallow him, the Trail Blazers head coach was confused.
When he led the team to lose to Jordan, the reporters also looked like this. It seemed like he did something that would never be forgiven, but now, when he lost to Lin Han again, he did something that would not be forgiven.
He really felt that he might be really tired now.
At this time, Adelman, the head coach of the Trail Blazers, felt a little tired. However, Jazz coach Jerry Sloan, who followed him to the press conference, did not feel tired, but instead smiled. Such a victory in the game not only strengthened the confidence of the team players, but also strengthened his confidence.
Although this team has many flaws now, this game made Jerry Sloan see that even if the team has flaws, as long as there are enough excellent players, these players can make up for the flaws. Just like Lin Han almost turned into Jordan in the last moment of this game, he unreasonably staged Jordan's consecutive wins, directly breaking the originally anxious score to lead the team to win. With such a player, even if the team is not perfect enough!
So, at this time, Jerry Sloan was really happy. He had been worried about the relationship between Lin Han and Stockton and the team's pursuit of ten consecutive victories in the end, and he was also left behind all the worries about being injured.
Even at this time, the Jazz's head coach sat in his seat and was still looking at the group of unconventional journalists in the United States now beating Adelman, the honest man.
As he said, as a coach of his kind as Adelman, Adelman reached the finals twice in the year. He was very jealous at the time, but now? Everything seems to be completely different!
"I have nothing to say about this game, my players and myself have tried their best, Clyde, Buck, Rhode, etc. We all tried our best. But the final result is not something we can decide just by doing our best. This is basketball, this is nba,"
In NBA, many times, only as the winner can he become the protagonist, which is almost the same as iron rule. At this time, it almost seems that it does not exist. The winner of this game is not Adelman but Jerry Sloan beside Adelman.
According to common sense, even if the Trail Blazers played at home in this game, the final protagonist was Jerry Sloan. But now, this group of reporters who were completely angered by Lin Han's performance on the court, regardless of Jerry Sloan, who was the winner, almost all of them targeted Adelman.
I wish I could just eat the Trail Blazers head coach who had not achieved their goal alive. This situation is actually very incredible and even cruel.
So at this time, from Adelman's answer, we can also see the fatigue of the Trail Blazers head coach.
"What is the evaluation of Lin Han? I don't know how to evaluate it, because I can't find any word to describe him. He is very, very perfect. I have never seen any rookie with such a perfect performance as he did. He beat us in this game, just like you said, he beat us and humiliated us, and we have no way to deal with him. That's the fact, maybe he is the best shooting guard in the West now."
"What's the difference between him and Jordan? I think there's no difference in this game. That's my opinion. If you want to get anything bad for him from me, I think you'll be disappointed."
"As for whether it is necessary to wave his arms and whistle up to the sky in the last moment of the game, or to incite the fans at the scene, this is not something I can say. Maybe this is just his simple venting. I won't say that he is suspected of deliberately irritating us or fans."
"The impact of the failure of this game on the team? I think there will be, not long ago, Drexler felt a little uncomfortable in his knees and ankles, and he might be out for a while, and I think we need to start over now."
"I know you are dissatisfied with me now, and I am also very dissatisfied with the current situation of the team, so after this game, I will submit my resignation report to the team management, hoping that this will satisfy everyone."
Adelman has always been an honest man. He can finally tell the failure of this game, and the responsibility is all his. If he will resign, you can imagine how much pressure the Trail Blazers head coach is at this time.
It can be said that the pressure Lin Han was under in this game, the pressure the Blazers were under. These unconventional guys can't get rid of Lin Han now. It's still OK to get rid of the Blazers or Adelman.
So, when Adelman was forced to be unable to do anything by these guys and even said the words of resignation, Jerry Sloan, who had been watching the fun while watching the fun, was surprised at this time.
These guys are really cruel.
At this time, Jerry Sloan thought silently in his heart. Seeing these guys' attitude, even if Adelman resigned, they had never thought of letting go of the Trail Blazers head coach.
Under such circumstances, Jerry Sloan found that he was actually quite lucky. Although his team was not exposed much before, the team's boss did not have much money, and the team's city was not very big, at least he was under no pressure as much as Adelman.
"This is a very exciting game. Both us and the Blazers have shown great skills and tactics. I think both of our teams have tried their best for this game."
"The Trail Blazers are a very strong team. I am honored to be able to beat them here. This time, we have brought us great confidence. As for the winning streak after this game, we will not consider it. Now I still say the same thing. The next victory will be everything. Without the next victory. There will be nothing."
"I have always said that Lin Han has made one of the most important players in our team. His cooperation with John and Carl is becoming more and more tacit. In fact, this has been proved countless times, so the outside world's speculation about their relationship can be stopped, and the outside world's career can also be stopped."
"I think he has used his strength to prove that he can get more fair treatment."
When Adelman, the honest man, was forced to resign, Jerry Sloan, as the head coach of the Jazz, naturally became the protagonist.
Although this group of reporters were very unhappy at this time, they did not disrespect Jerry Sloan as much as they asked Adelman for his respect, so they had already trained a very professional smile this season, and almost answered without any loss.
For Jerry Sloan. Because of Lin Han's arrival, this guy has received more attention this season than he has received in his coaching career. Such attention is actually very talented.
The Jazz and the Trail Blazers game is a focus of attention across the United States. After this game, the impact and sensation caused was even greater than when the Jazz defeated the Rockets, and even so great that Lin Han couldn't believe it.
The media that had already stepped on him crazy the day before, but almost overnight, all of them changed, and even major media no longer had accusations against Lin Hanren and football skills.
According to what Stockton Good Malone said to Lin Han, because Lin Han completely made them have nothing to say with his performance, which is important.
Even the New York Times and Houston Chronicles, who have been watching Lin Han’s most unhappy game, all played the front-page headlines with Lin Han’s crazy shots in the last moment of the fourth quarter, then raised his arms high and whistled up to the sky.
If possible, these media that hate Lin Han are naturally unwilling to see Lin Han so good, but there is no way. They have their departure, and ordinary audiences and ordinary fans also have their own positions. When Lin Han's performance is really impeccable, they are still slandering wildly, which means the style is reduced. This is a question of whether their readers will buy it or not.
Therefore, even if they don’t want to, they have to sing praises to Lin Han honestly. Just like Jordan back then, when Jordan scored wildly and could lead the team to win, even if they kept calling Jordan a cancer, they had to vote for Jordan during the MVP voting.
Now, I'm just shouting that this is the situation. Even if they hate Lin Han to death, they can't explode now, so these guys aimed almost all their anger at the Portland Trail Blazers again.
When Lin Han returned to Utah and woke up the next morning, he saw the flattery of him by newspapers across the United States and his crazy saliva towards the Trail Blazers, Lin Han felt a little ashamed.
This was not the case a day ago. At this time, Lin Han once again felt that he overestimated the integrity of these guys.
Especially when Lin Han saw that the New York Times actually named him the No. 1 shooting guard in the West, he felt a little blushed at the newspaper.
"Your sister, you just said yesterday that I am the shooting guard who can't even enter the top ten in the West. Today, I'm the first place."
Of course, although Lin Han was paying silence for these guys' moral integrity at this time, just like these guys, no matter how much Lin Han doesn't like them, Lin Han is very willing to listen to these guys' good words.
At least, when she woke up in the morning, Lin Han found that her elder sister was in a good mood. Obviously, when she was helping Lin Han collect the newspaper, she first read the contents inside.
Of course, being able to defeat Drexler and defeat the Trail Blazers left the media all over the United States with nothing to say. This is a good thing for Lin Han, which has almost stopped all the pressure from Lin Han in the past half month, but the biggest good news for Lin Han was actually the official signing of his contract with Adidas.
Just in the early morning when Lin Han led the team to defeat the Trail Blazers and returned to Utah, the president of Adidas' American branch brought his lawyer to the Jazz's headquarters and signed a formal cooperation agreement with Lin Han.
Adidas and Lin Han signed a lifelong contract. As for the content of the lifelong contract, the content of the treaty is very simple. Adidas will cooperate with Lin Han to develop the "Miracle" sports card. Lin Han gave up all endorsement fees and signed with Adidas at zero. The equity of the Miracle Card is divided equally, and both parties have equal decision-making power. At the same time, the annual sales of Lin Han's signature sneakers in the Miracle Card will be 30% delivered to Lin Han as a reward for using Lin Han's image.
This is the specific contract signed by Lin Han and Adidas. Originally, Lin Han only had 49% of the equity of Miracle Card, but Lin Han finally gave up the endorsement fee of 3 million yuan per year to obtain the same status and decision-making power as Adidas in this new card. This also delayed the two parties who should have signed the contract half a month ago for another half month.
At the same time, this also made Lin Han the boss of a sports company. Although Lin Han now gave up the endorsement fee of 3 million yuan per year, it was a pity that Lin Han heard that the highest endorsement fee of NBA sneakers was as high as 30 million yuan per year twenty years later, Lin Han still decisively chose the decision-making power of the Miracle card.
Although Lin Han knew it was difficult to get his card to reach the Jordan card, Lin Han also had a little ambitions. When the time came, Lin Han would really reach that step, and then Lin Han would push his card to go public, he would be a billionaire or even a billionaire.
Of course, according to Aili, this is Lin Han's own yy, and the things are very unrealistic yy. Perhaps in Aili's opinion, the most important thing about Lin Han now is to have a pair of his own sneakers, and you can't always wear Jordan cards.
Soon, just the day after Lin Han signed the contract with Adidas, Adidas delivered a pair of specially made ‘Miracle Generation’ sneakers to Lin Han’s home. (To be continued) r580
