Nba Players Pretended To Be Uncle Drew And I Tortured Them

Nike definitely takes the signing of Chu Han very seriously.

I think back then, before Chu Han entered the league or even before the draft started, Phil Knight had already asked someone to offer Chu Han an endorsement contract.

But at that time, Chu Han had a clear understanding of his own value.

As for Nike's offer contract at that time, it was impossible for him to catch it.

It turns out.

Chu Han's choice is correct.

As his performance became more and more explosive after entering the NBA, the valuation of his worth by major American media has also increased.

In the latest worth prediction list, ESPN ranked Chu Han as the third player in the league after James and Kobe!

Even higher than Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Paul, etc., superstars who have been in the league for many years.

To know.

Kobe and James are among the top players in NBA history.

Not to mention the commercial value.

Chu Han is just a rookie and has just played 10 official games in the NBA.

In this way, he has become second only to Jenko.

If he is given another period of time to grow, his commercial value will probably explode!

"Chairman, what value of a contract should we give him?"

The director of Nike's operations department has a headache: "An annual salary of tens of millions is no longer enough for Chu Han. His worth has at least doubled!"

Doubling the annual salary of 10 million means starting with an annual salary of 20 million.

If converted to a 6-year contract, this would be an endorsement contract starting at 120 million for 6 years!

An endorsement contract worth over 100 million, signing a rookie?

Before today, if someone told Nike staff, they would be willing to give a rookie player a contract with a total value of over 100 million.

People at Nike will think this guy is out of his mind.

They are more willing to give the person who said this sentence 12 dollars and let him take a car to see a psychiatrist.

But now.

The facts are before everyone at Nike.

Chu Han is really a super rookie with a starting level of 100 million yuan.

What's even more exaggerated is that if Nike is unwilling to give an endorsement contract starting at 100 million yuan, some "337" sports brands are rushing to send money to Chu Han!

Their perception is also correct.

Just when Nike was having a meeting.

Chu Han's agent has received a call from Under Armor.

During this period, Under Armor had not yet signed Stephen Curry, and their focus was more on sports other than basketball.

Such as rugby and various fitness equipment.

However, the huge basketball market made Under Armor interested.

Since they want to enter the basketball market and take a piece of the cake, they must make heavy bets.

The appearance of Chu Han made Under Armor see the target of heavy investment.

After their first-round offer was rejected, they chose to be at the forefront of the second-round offer.

"150 million in 7 years, Chu, this is the result of the second round of quotations given by Under Armor.

United States, New York.

Chu Han advanced his salary in advance to purchase a property.

His agent handed Under Armor's contract offer to Chu Han: "They also added some bonus clauses to it.

"If you can meet these terms, this contract can reach up to $174 million."

These reward terms include: being selected to the league's best team once within the rookie contract.

It doesn’t matter if it’s 1, 2 or 3.

Within the rookie contract, win the MVP or the best defensive player, or be top 1 in individual data for two seasons.

Within the rookie contract, he was selected as an All-Star starter.

Within the rookie contract, lead the team to at least the second round of the playoffs.

As long as these terms are completed, Chu Han can trigger the maximum limit of the contract and turn this contract into 174 million for 7 years!

On average, the annual salary is nearly $25 million!

What is this concept?

You know, in this season's NBA player salary list, only Kobe Bryant's salary in the league can rival Chu Han's endorsement value after reaching all terms!

It is not an exaggeration to say that this contract is a huge gamble by Under Armor.

"Unfortunately, Under Armor is not a professional basketball brand."

Chu Han briefly flipped through the contract and shook his head: "Moreover, their weight in the basketball field is too light.

Don’t you see, it’s in the future of the original timeline.

After Stephen Curry signed with Under Armor, he couldn't even win the Finals MVP.

Although some people say that there is another reason why Curry couldn't win AMVP.

More people are also willing to believe that the Under Armor shoes he wears must have a certain degree of influence in this.

Furthermore.

Chu Han felt that Under Armor's contract quotation was still not up to his expectations.

US$25 million sounds like a lot, but after tax deductions, it's not that much.

Moreover, if you want to reach an annual salary of US$25 million, you have to reach a bunch of troublesome terms.

Although these terms are nothing to Chu Han.

But to a certain extent, Under Armor's expected price is still around US$20 million.

"So, are you going to reject Under Armor's offer?"

"Yes, but their offer is not without merit.

Chu Han introduced to his agent: "We can take the initiative to let the news out.

"you mean...

Chu Han’s agent’s mind was spinning: “Use Under Armor to raise the price?!”

Yes.

Under Armor's offer, although unlikely to be agreed to by Chu Han.

But their offer also makes sense.

At least it can be used to raise prices.

It had only been minutes since Under Armor's offer had been rejected.

ESPN pushed an exclusive news on its official website:

"Exclusive news! Under Armor's seven-year offer of US$180 million was rejected by Chu Han!"

Obviously, this is the news released by Agent Chu.

ESPN’s exclusive consultation and promotion made this news popular all over the United States in an instant.

On Twitter, countless fans are discussing it.

"180 million in 7 years? Under Armor? Did I hear that right?"

"The key is that Chu Han actually rejected this sky-high contract. God, it was close to US$200 million!"

“Although tax is deducted, the pre-tax amount is too exaggerated.

"This means that Chu Han's expected annual salary may be more than $25 million!?"

The fans' analysis finally got to the point.

Why does Chu Han use Under Armor to raise prices?

On the one hand, it is a signal to companies led by Nike and Adidas:

Your competitors have already started making second round offers!

On the other hand, it is to tell Nike and Adidas at the accurate contract price:

If the offer is less than US$180 million over 7 years, don’t put it forward, it’s not enough!

One thing to say.

The release of this wave of news really had an effect.

The Adidas signing team, who was originally planning to fly to the European headquarters to New York, looked at the six-year, US$140 million contract they had prepared in their hands and directly refunded the tickets.

They have to reconvene a meeting to make a new valuation of Chu Han's business value.

"This is too exaggerated!"

Portland, USA.

An emergency meeting with Nike executives.

Some executives expressed surprise: "Will Under Armor quote a price of US$180 million?"

"Is that the same Under Armor I know?"

180 million US dollars in 7 years!

Under Armor?

And to a rookie?

It is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!

"This is entirely possible. After all, if Under Armor wants to enter the basketball market, grabbing Chu Han is the best opportunity.

The person in charge of Nike’s California branch came up with a set of data:

"According to the data I just obtained, Under Armor's stock price rose slightly within a few minutes of the ESPN news.

Just like the person in charge said.

Just the news that Under Armour's contract with Chu Han was rejected can affect Under Armour's stock price, and the effect is still positive.

If a brand really signs Chu Han.

The positive income that brings will definitely explode!

"Chu Han's team is smart."

Phil Knight, who had been silent, rubbed his eyes: "They were so smart to release this news.

There is no doubt that after this news is released, both Nike and Adidas will make a second-round offer at the upper limit level.

The two sides will no longer hide and tuck in.

It's almost an open-card fight.

The Chu Han endorsement battle that might have been going on for a while was turned into a one-shot decision by the Chu Han team.

Who this super rookie will end up with depends entirely on the next high-profile offers from Adidas and Nike!

"BOSS, we are second"

"Let's observe Chu Han's next performance."

Phil Knight said with a serious face: "Maybe we have to prepare a six-year, $200 million contract offer."

hiss--

Hearing these words from the company's big boss, the Nike executives present took a collective breath!

200 million in 6 years!

This is a huge contract with an annual salary of over 30 million US dollars!

Looking at the history of the NBA, no rookie player has ever been able to get such a level of sneaker endorsement contract.

Once Nike really proposes an endorsement contract at this price, and Chu Han really signs it.

His cooperation with Nike will create a historical record in the NBA.

Moreover, Chu Han’s annual sneaker endorsement salary will exceed the highest annual salary of an active NBA player!

The youngest billionaire in NBA history will also be born on the day Chu Han signs the contract!

However, since 200 million in six years does involve a gamble, Nike chose to wait and see.

At the emergency meeting of Adidas executives, they also chose a wait-and-see attitude.

Both leaders of sports brands adhere to one principle:

It's okay if you don't take action. Once you take action, you will definitely hit the king!

November 18th, US time.

The NBA officially announced the Eastern and Western Players of the Week for the third week of the new season.

This side of the west.

Blake Griffin had a great game.

The Clippers power forward led the team to victory in three games last week [averaging 25.7 points, 11.3 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game.

Rounding up, that’s 25+10+5 in a single week.

On the road of being an all-around forward, Lifen is getting better and better.

East side.

Loeb/Lon·Don’t care about the best of the week·James averaged 34 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists per game in a single week, and led the team to victory in three games.

If you say that Ajan really doesn't care about Best of the Week, his performance doesn't seem like it.

Unfortunately.

In terms of Best of the Week selection, the FMVP of the past two seasons still lost to that familiar name - Chu Han!

Last week, Chu Han led the team to win all 4 games.

Among the four games, one was a head-to-head match

Paul George retired and led his team to defeat the second-place Pacers in the Eastern Conference.

One game was against the Trail Blazers, who were second in the Western Conference, setting a record for three-pointers made in a single quarter and leading the team to victory.

This gold content is much higher than James' three games against the Bucks, Bobcats, and Mavericks.

At the same time, this is also the third time in Chu Han's career that he has been selected as the best player of the week.

Three weeks in a row!

This made him the second player in NBA history to win the Best of the Week for three consecutive weeks.

Who was the last one?

That is the Loeb/Ron James of the 05-06 season!

In James' career, he has won the best performance of the week for two consecutive weeks many times...

And in March of the 05-06 season, he won the Eastern Conference Player of the Week for three consecutive weeks.

Why do some fans suggest changing the name of the Player of the Week Award to the Loeb/Ron James Award?

That's because Ajan is indeed very dominant in the Best of the Week award.

But now, another dominant player in the Player of the Week award has appeared.

With the media's sarcastic temper, why should the topic of Chu Han vs. James be brought to the forefront this time?

The whole nation is talking about it, and James, one of the two topical figures, becomes full-power James.

On the surface, he did not respond to topics related to the Weekly Player of the Week, but in fact, he scored a season-high 41 points in a home game against the Charlotte Bobcats!

"Look what that guy did today."

Wade, who was interviewed by the media after the game, pointed to his good brother who was being interviewed on the other side: "That's all I want to say."

On the Internet, Heat supporters began to take the initiative on this topic.

“How else do Loeb/Long need to respond to this topic?”

"As long as he wants to, he can perform as well as tonight every night!"

“The same goes for Best of the Week!”

"He can take it, but there's no need~"

One of the two parties involved in this wave of hot topics has given a strong response with his own performance on the court.

Another person involved, Chu Han, naturally became the target of public criticism.

November 19th, US time.

Chu Han, who was a guest in Atlanta, was surrounded by reporters from three floors inside and three outside before the game.

Chu Han, who was already in the spotlight due to his rejection of Under Armour's sneaker offer, was once again pushed by the topic of the week.

There are too many topics about the number one scholar in China.

To paraphrase Charles Barkley on last night’s panel:

Media who want to make money from Chu Han’s traffic can simply line up from Atlanta to New York!

Chu Han, who is at the center of the topic, also fully displays his persona of being ruthless and talkative.

Just like James responds to everything with his performance on the court.

Chu Han went on a killing spree at Phillips Arena where he won the NCAA championship.

The Atlanta Hawks are not a weak team this season.

Four of their starting five will be selected for the Eastern Conference All-Stars next season!

Maybe the Hawks don't have a top super giant, but just looking at the strength of the lineup, they are definitely one of the top four teams in the Eastern Conference.

Then.

This team, one of the top four in the Eastern Conference, was defeated by Chu Han.

In the whole game, Chu Han scored 42 points with a shooting rate of 70%.

No more, no less, just 1 point more than James.

The key is.

James scored 41 points in 42 minutes.

Chu Han scored 42 points in just 32 minutes!

10 minutes less playing time, but 1 point more than you.

Are you saying it's annoying?

After scoring one point more than James and leading the team to defeat the Hawks, Chu Han flew to Philadelphia with the Knicks.

At the beginning of the season, everyone wanted to watch the Knicks-76ers game.

Because at that time, McAway seemed to be in a position to steal Chu Han's Rookie of the Year title.

But as the season progresses.

Fans finally realized:

The idea that McAway and Chu Han are lifelong enemies is simply the biggest joke of the 21st century.

This game in Philadelphia also illustrates this point very well.

How did Chu Han bully McAway in the finals of the NCAA tournament and Game 1 of Summer League?

In this game, he made the whole world relive it again.

After leading the team to easily defeat the 76ers, "Chu Xiang has led the Knicks to a 12-game winning streak at the start of the season!

This is the best starting record in the history of the team, and it is only the last 3 games away from the longest 15-game winning streak in the history of the Knicks!

November 23rd, US time.

The Knicks ushered in the last opponent of their three consecutive away games - the Orlando Magic.

The Magic this season is no different than last season.

Still the same shit!

Chu Han effortlessly conquered Orlando, extending the team's winning streak to 13 games.

After winning this game, Chu Han couldn't help but sigh while taking a shower in the locker room:

The regular season schedule of the Eastern Conference teams is too easy!

Take the Knicks' three consecutive guest appearances as an example.

Their opponents are the Hawks, 76ers and Magic.

Except for the Eagles, the other two are the bottom tank brigades in the league.

Even the Eagles lack top stars and are lackluster.

It is much easier for Eastern teams to win a good record than Western teams.

In fact, the phenomenon of strong west and weak east became more obvious in the 13-14 season.

If Chu Han remembers correctly.

In the 13-14 season in the original timeline.

The Phoenix Suns, ninth in the Western Conference, have 48 wins and 34 losses in a single season, with a winning rate of 58.5%!

As for why it is 58?

It doesn't matter.

The important thing is that the 48-win Suns actually failed to make the playoffs in the Western Conference!

You know, the Raptors, who are third in the East, only have 48 wins!

in other words.

This season, we are ninth in the Western Conference and could be ranked third in the Eastern Conference!

Weak brigade groups gathered in the east, and involution was serious in the west.

Saying that someone has benefited from the benefits of the East is not an overstatement.

However, Chu Han's easy three-game winning streak in the Eastern Conference has come to an end.

Back at home, they will face the Houston Rockets who came out of the Wild West!

(Fourth update, regarding the issue of sneaker endorsement, I hope readers can give us some opinions in the book review area. Is it the domestically produced Ning, or the Moutai brand?).
