Guard With a Knife

When Miley Cyrus' agent received a YSL lipstick deal, she thought it was ridiculous. She didn't expect that the two kisses on the sidelines would bring a three-year endorsement contract with a total value of 1.1 million US dollars.

Duan also felt the same as her. Duan received a call from CCTV reporter Lao Duan after the training.

After several interviews, the two have become very familiar with each other. He told Duge on the phone that several sponsor agencies have come to China. They all hope to reach a cooperation intention with Duge, and the price they offer is not low. The high ones can even reach the million level. Although they are in RMB, they are basically food, beverage and health product companies. In terms of conversion, it is much more cost-effective than the contract offered by Jordan.

This surprised Doug: Just because they blocked Derrick Rose, they traveled across the ocean to send money? ? It's too unrealistic.

The news that surprised him even more came from Edward, who came back from Texas. Bringing back two draft promises, San Antonio told him that as long as Snoopy participates in this year's draft and completes the summer workout, they will definitely select him with the late first round pick.

The other came from the previously silent Dallas Mavericks. Their general manager Nelson Jr. personally promised Edward that if the puppy decides to participate in the draft, he will use the late first-round pick.

"Also, the Houstonians also said that they don't reject adding another Chinese player." Edward continued: "But it can be seen that they are not very optimistic about you, and they treat you more as a business. Anyway, the second round Xiu can not give a fully guaranteed contract."

"I think Dallas is even more sincere than San Antonio. I saw your video highlights in Nelson Jr.'s office, as well as the detailed data analysis model. At that time, you hadn't completed the deadly block against No. 1 Derrick Rose. And he He told me about his feelings for China, he has been paying attention to Chinese basketball since the 1980s, they once gave a player named Hu Weidong a short-term contract, and then brought Wang Zhizhi to the NBA."

After Edward finished his brief introduction.

Duge finally breathed a sigh of relief. With two draft guarantees, he felt more confident.

He's firm about declaring for the draft after the NCAA Finals.

During this period of time, he frequently talked with his mother on the phone, although his mother always said on the phone that he was doing well now, and his father's business was fine. But every call ended quickly, and she was always at work, either going to rehearsal or putting on makeup.

This made him very anxious. He knew his father. If Lao Du hadn't reached a critical moment, he would never let his woman go out to make money.

As a man of the Du family, he also inherited this kind of masculinity in his blood. He felt that he had the responsibility and obligation to contribute his strength at this time.

After saying goodbye to Edward, Doug received a call from 'Hollywood Records', who told him that the royalties after tax had been paid into his reserved account. At the same time, they decided to release his chorus with Miley Cyrus in advance on April 20, to hit the charts!

In this regard, Doug has no objection.

After hanging up the phone, he remembered that the finals were on April 19, which happened to be seamless.

Back in the dormitory, he was immediately pulled to the computer by Russell Westbrook: "Listen, listen to what that bastard Darrell Arthur said."

As he spoke, he clicked on an interview video, in which Darrell Arthur wearing the No. 00 jersey appeared.

"Of course I've heard of him, Snoop Dogg. Haha."

Arthur's laughter made it easy to pick out his emotions: disdain, mockery.

"He is very hot now. He blocked the Lopez brothers, blocked Michael Beasley, blocked Joey Dorsey, and blocked Derrick Rose. Since yesterday, all the basketball media have been reporting on him. Everyone boasted of him as a legend,

Think what an amazing thing he has done. "

"But... put aside all the other gimmicks, including the YSL mark on the forehead. He is just a short center forward who is 1.93 meters tall, has no ball handling ability, moves slowly, and only knows how to bounce in place. You think he can Guard me?"

"The rhythm of modern basketball is getting faster and faster. I believe that in the near future, the standing center will be completely eliminated. It will be replaced by a space-type insider like me. I can pick and roll, I can catch rebounds, I can block shots, I can cut off the ball, I can hit long jumpers!"

"Of course, I won't say such arrogant words as to blow him up, but I will definitely not let him guard me!"

Darrell Arthur's expression was full of confidence: "And, Kansas will be this year's championship! There is no doubt about it!"

The video freezes on his smile.

Westbrook turned his head, Doug had already walked away.

"So... Snoopy doesn't care about Darrell's provocation at all?" Russell asked very puzzled.

"Actually, it is really difficult for Snoopy to defend Arthur." Kevin Love analyzed with a clear mind: "I think Kansas did this on purpose. They tried to anger Snoopy and the coaching staff, and then made Arthur Nuby is going to guard him. But actually, Luke Mbah a Moute is better suited guarding Darrell Arthur."

Westbrook frowned tightly, and he didn't have so many twists and turns in his mind. He said directly: "If I were Snoopy, I would find Darrell Arthur when I played, and cover him a few times first."

Kevin Love smiled helplessly and said, "Snoopy shouldn't get much playing time in the finals."

Westbrook didn't understand.

He liked playing with Doug because Doug would give him the rebounds.

While the two were discussing the matter, Doug returned to the arena.

Darrell Yase's remarks made him feel uncomfortable, his breathing became constricted, and his heart seemed to be tightly squeezed by one hand.

He disliked Arthur's arrogance.

But I have to admit that what he said has a certain factual basis.

In this bad mood, he began to practice shooting.
