Anthony the Reborn

Chapter 150 Team Crisis
Anthony fled back to the villa, but fortunately Fox was not here today, otherwise even if nothing happened, he would be misunderstood.

Anthony went home and took a good shower, and then he let down the desire in his heart, thinking that this kind of thing must never happen again, it was like playing with fire.

The next day, Anthony still went to shoot the commercial as usual, but he intentionally kept a distance from Longoria, but Longoria was much calmer than Anthony, she seemed like a normal person, what should she do? Well, this made Anthony feel a little speechless.

It took three consecutive days of filming for this commercial to be completed. After doing this and that, Anthony felt more tired than playing basketball. He also experienced the hardships of Fox filming. I also felt the pain of coming to him, and the love for her in my heart became stronger and stronger.

But the hard work finally paid off. Once Anthony's commercial was broadcast, it caused an uproar in the United States, especially the last sentence of becoming the next basketball god completely shocked everyone.

For a while, there were endless comments on this advertisement on the Internet. After a period of time, they were divided into two very clear lineups.

Zhengfang thinks this is the domineering that a basketball god should have. If a player doesn't even have the ambition to become a basketball god, how can he become a basketball god?And Anthony's performance is enough to prove that he has this qualification. How can anyone in history be able to achieve Anthony's achievements?I am afraid that apart from Chamberlain in ancient times, no one can match it, right?

From the rookie season so far, it can be said that he has surpassed the god of basketball, and Jordan is willing to cooperate with Anthony to shoot this advertisement. Although there are money and investment factors in it, Jordan is the god of basketball after all. The heart is definitely the highest, and he was able to lower his proud head, which has fully demonstrated his recognition of Anthony, and this recognition is absolutely unreserved.

This is the view of the pros, but the opposite is exactly the opposite. They even belittled Jordan. They think that no matter how good a rookie performs, he is still a rookie after all. He was so proud of the month's game, how can he win the next game?As for Jordan, the god of basketball has no dignity at all. After retiring, he became a businessman, and he can give up his dignity as the god of basketball for nearly 20 years for money.

The debates between pros and cons can be said to be endless, and no one can convince anyone, but no matter what, this advertisement can be said to have completely raised Anthony's influence in the United States. After the advertisement was broadcast, it also sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

The good news is that Anthony is a star of the new generation, and his outstanding performance is an indisputable fact, so as time goes by, Meloni has the upper hand after all.

And to Anthony's surprise, China's Basketball Pioneer took the initiative to approach Jordan Brand Company, requesting to publish the content of this ad in the newspaper, and was willing to spend a lot of space analyzing the ad.

This kind of thing is harmful but not beneficial, and there is basically no investment, and Jordan Brand is of course happy.

After this ad analysis was published in China, Anthony, who was originally highly praised by the Basketball Pioneer, can be said to once again set off a wave in China.

China is already at the forefront of reform and opening up. Anthony's arrogant and unruly character is highly sought after by the young and tough. Even fans who like Iverson think that Anthony's character has turned into melon. .

It can be said that this is an unprecedented time, which directly raised Anthony's popularity on the other side of the ocean to a higher level.

Thanks to this, as an official NBA partner, CCTV5 is of course unwilling to lag behind after seeing the blaze of the Basketball Pioneer, not to mention that Yang Yi, who has been promoted to the director of the Basketball Pioneer, is their special commentator. A first-tier channel, and soon won the cooperation contract for the Jordan brand to advertise in China.

The official advertisements opened up the Chinese market for Anthony's signature sneakers. For a while, this pair of Anthony's first-generation boots set off an unprecedented frenzy of buying in China. All fashionable Chinese people want to own such shoes. The pride of a pair of sneakers, many agents often appear in short supply, and the sneaker market is unprecedentedly hot.

Opening up the Chinese market is not just a benefit of selling sneakers. At this time, the All-Star voting has begun. As a populous country, the Chinese team is undoubtedly very decisive. Anthony's sudden increase in fame, but it should be completely voted on. It's off the charts.

In the voting in the Western Conference, Anthony's popularity in China and local fans made him far ahead of other All-Star players. A rookie surpassed Garnett, Kobe Bryant, O'Neal and other big stars, which surprised all experts. It can be called a miracle in NBA history.

This series of domino effects surprised even Anthony, who is now very grateful for the decision he made at the draft press conference.

Anthony bought a lot of sneakers and won the All-Star vote. It can be said that he is proud of the spring breeze, but the Nuggets team he is in is in big trouble.

In a game in early January, Nene was injured while fighting Garnett, which caused the Nuggets to lose that game, and the chain reaction after that was unexpected by everyone.

After Nene was injured, Wang Zhizhi, as the first substitute of the power forward, naturally became the starter. However, the Chinese has a limited body after all. After starting two games, the sudden increase in playing time made his body respond greatly. , In the following match, he was also injured in a confrontation.

In just a few days, the two power forwards of the Nuggets were injured. This time, D'Antoni was completely confused. As the second substitute, White was obviously unable to start. Dior debut.

Diaw, the all-round forward, as the season progressed, he also realized the shortcomings of his lack of weight, so he slowly increased his weight, and by this time his weight was already competent for the power forward position.

The Nuggets' starting team already scored a lot of points. Dior's passing ability is a very good supplement to the team. It can be said that it has alleviated the crisis of the Nuggets. unintended consequences.

Originally, the competition between Wallace and Dior had greatly promoted the team, and both of them had made great contributions to the team after they came on the court, but this time, the coach suddenly mentioned Dior to the starting position , This time, Wallace completely quit.

He was originally a swinging striker, and Dior had always been Anthony's substitute. Now that the player was injured, the coaching department mentioned him instead.

At the beginning, he approached the coach and asked him to start, but D'Antoni naturally refused, which completely angered him. He didn't dare to stop the game for the time being, but he actually played negatively.

This time, D'Antoni was pissed and put him directly on the bench.

It's just that the Nuggets are short of people. Wallace has become a very key rotation player for the team after entering December. His impact can be said to be indispensable in the bench lineup. Without him, the team's rotation was in chaos. White was both a father and a mother, and he was a substitute for both positions. Korver even swayed to the small forward's substitute.

This time, the team is cheating. They lose one after another. It’s okay to face weak teams. Anthony directly leads the team to win the game, but when facing a slightly stronger team, the main force comes. The substitute was blown up.

Nene and Wang Zhizhi hadn't recovered from their injuries. As a last resort, D'Antoni finally activated Wallace, but this man was determined to start, and he played passively on the field.

But D'Antoni is not to be outdone, he just wants Dior to start. This time, the two can be said to be completely in conflict.

Anthony saw the team lose and the conflict between Wallace and D'Antoni. He talked to both of them, but nothing worked.

In the second half of the game in January, the Nuggets lost more than they won, and the team's ranking dropped from fourth in the West to seventh in the West in a fierce competition. They will soon fall from the playoffs up.

The Nuggets lost. At the beginning, as the owner, Kronko could bear it, but as the number of losses increased, the owner finally couldn't sit still. He approached Vandeweghe and asked his general manager To speed up the transaction process, he wants to see Nash join the team before the trade deadline.

Kronko's decision made Vandeweghe cry miserably. He had already proposed Brand's trading plan after seeing the team lose. He was already waiting to make a trade. Unexpectedly, the boss chose Nash in the end, which made him instantly feel at a loss.

Nash and Vandeweghe used rumors, active persuasion, and dialogue with Cuban in various ways, both open and dark, but they were all played by old Nelson with emotional cards, and they all came to naught in the end.

Kroenko's request was simply too difficult for others, and Vandeweghe turned his head into a frown.

Vandeweghe's troubles quickly spread to the Nuggets players. This time, the Nuggets were completely panicked. Under the vicious circle, the entire team was already in turmoil.
