Chapter 1982： On the road to growth

"As early as when I signed Jordan, I told you that Jordan is not a normal star, and he is not a superstar." Yin Jun said, "He is a man who can represent basketball in the future! We Nike must bind him. , Through his power and influence, rush to the world! "

"Is it possible?" Phil Knight reluctantly said, "Jordan's achievements must be great, I admit. But basketball can be popular globally? Is it comparable to football? Is it comparable to baseball? Is it comparable to football? Have you ever played ice hockey? "

"What is ice hockey?" Yin Jun coughed softly. "I tell you, old Philippines, what matters is not the present, but the future! You look at the current N.BA president David Stern, how he is A person with vision and ability? Since he took office last year, he has ran more than 30 countries to promote our basketball. With him, are you still afraid that basketball will not be popular all over the world? "

Basketball is a good sport, but it is strange that its huge influence is actually maintained in China and the United States.

Especially for China, it is like N.BA's super overseas market, with a lot of **** fans.

Jordan, Rodman, Barkley, Karl Malone and others created the first batch of N.BA fans.

Later, Iverson, O'Neill, Kobe Bryant, Duncan and so on, continued to envelope the second batch of Chinese **** basketball fans.

Even after another ten years, James, Paul, Curry, Durant, etc., can still fascinate countless Chinese basketball fans.

Among these people, superstars come out in large numbers, but when it comes to global influence, the most famous one is Jordan.

The name Jordan has exceeded the scope of basketball, no matter what industry, there are his fans.

Compared with the ball king Maradona and others, they are more famous and people like to worship.

In fact, Jordan's shortcomings are also very many, but he can be a man himself, David Stern and his agent also understand packaging, so Jordan became a god.

Yin Jun doesn't ask about the twists and turns in the middle, as long as he knows that Jordan is the **** of basketball in the end, no one can reach his grade except him, that's enough.

Nike has Jordan to support, which gradually became the world's number one sporting goods company.

The teenager who knew the result, of course, wanted to take him completely before Jordan had established his status.

However, looking at what Philnet meant, he was still a little uncertain.

It was the same even if Yin Jun moved out of David Stern.

"Let's take a look at this matter slowly." Phil Knight pondered for a moment, but still insisted on his own meaning. "The 20-year contract is definitely not short. Wait until he has greater value! Nike will not be. He said that because of his high price, he would not dare to sign a contract with him. "

Jordan's price is probably higher than you can imagine!

Yin Jun slandered in the heart, but in fact did not mean to force Phil Knight.

After all, Nike is still in charge. Although Yin Jun took a 20% stake, he did not interfere with his ideas.

Between the two talking, the DJs on the scene had already begun to make various moves, and the atmosphere of the stadium had slowly become hot.

Especially when the players of their own team came back to play, there were screams and applause, which made people think it was a party.

Looking at such a lively scene, Phil Knight didn't feel a little envious, "Jun, have you considered that the New York Unicorns will add another shareholder?"

"No."

Yin Jun refused to think about it, "But old Filipino, I can tell you in advance, my players, you should take it fast! Not only Jordan needs to renew the contract, but also others! Contract is really not enough for others to dig. "

"Relax, am I such a stupid person?" Philnet laughed. "It's all under control! We will discuss the contract again after the rest of the game."

Speaking of which, Phil Knight patted Yin Jun's shoulder, "Jun, thank you, brought us such a group of energetic geniuses!"

He is truly grateful for saying this.

Everyone can see that whether it is Michael Jordan, Barkley, Stockton, or Karl Malone, all have superstar power.

Although the latter few may not be as radiant as Michael Jordan, it will be no problem to become a top star in the future.

Such a group of people were included by Nike just after their debut, which made Phil Knight confident and ready to promote them.

He just raised the bar with Yin Jun. In fact, for the global promotion of Nike, Phil Knight has already discussed with David Stern, and both of them will come up with a lot of money to cooperate with the promotion.

One is for the N.BA alliance and the other is for Nike, but the purpose is the same, of course, sincere cooperation.

The two said here that the game had already begun.

Michael Jordan deserves to be the **** of basketball in the future. As soon as he came up, he forced two breakthroughs and scored five points in a row.

But Johnson, the spiritual leader of the Lakers over there, did not panic. He began to slowly organize the offensive at his own pace, interspersed, running, responding, shooting ... in one breath, at the end of the first quarter, The New York Unicorns played 27:18.

In the first quarter, he was 9 points behind, leaving the New York Unicorns completely unthinkable.

But even Yin Jun, a half-hanger fan, can see that Johnson is in very good shape today. He led all the Lakers players alone. Five of the 27 points are accounted for, and Barkley ’s 2 fouls, 1 foul by Jack Sikma.

On the side of the New York Unicorns, today the cooperation between Jack Sikma and Karl Malone was very unsuccessful. They were repeatedly restrained by the other side and there was no way to cooperate.

Stockton was also forced on the wing and was unable to break in, only relying on Michael Jordan's powerful personal ability to score.

However, when everyone expected Michael Jordan to turn the tide, the super rookie was really impressed.

Don't look at him, he scored 10 points in the first quarter, and scored 9 points in the second quarter. When he was seriously behind by more than 20 points in the third quarter, he also scored 15 points. Ability to guarantee.

He repeatedly scored under the rebound and repeated assaults, which caused Jordan to spend a lot of physical energy, so that he only scored 3 points in the fourth quarter.

Under the leadership of Johnson, the Los Angeles Lakers have four players scoring more than 20 points. In addition, Johnson himself suddenly started a personal performance in the fourth quarter, and one person scored 20 points.

In the end, the New York Unicorns lost the seventh game of the finals with 103: 123 points, and finally sent the Los Angeles Lakers to the throne of this year's championship.

When David Stern handed the trophy to Johnson, Jordan, who was sitting on the floor, cried with a headache.

This scene was screened on the big screen of the scene, and all the audience were moved.

Even after Johnson saw it, he walked over and hugged Jordan, patted his back, and said something to him loudly.

No matter how much Johnson comforted Jordan, this year's finals, this year's efforts, Jordan and the entire New York Unicorns, still did not win the biggest victory.

Yin Jun was not surprised at the accident.

Under the leadership of Johnson, the Los Angeles Lakers have entered the finals for several years in a row, and they are very skilled and experienced.

No matter how strong the New York Unicorns are, they are not as familiar as other light cars, let alone Johnson, and they are much better than Jordan.

Young always make mistakes, not to mention that when they fought against the Celtics before, they also played seven innings, which has already spent a lot of energy.

But for the New York Kirin coach, Yin Jun was not very satisfied.

Because when the team fell behind, when Jordan fell into singles, he did not have a good deployment.

For example, if the team is behind, he should stabilize his position and do his defense well.

But the coach just desperately shouted to let them attack and then attack, but Johnson was rhythmically and could only turn around others.

When Jordan is in a singles fight, he should send players who can pick and play with Jordan and can make room for Jordan.

But he still didn't, just superstitious Jordan's ability, hoping to watch Jordan himself to turn the tide ~ www.novelhall.com ~ If it is Jordan 10 years later, it is not necessary to say that Jordan himself can match today's Johnson on the court, Even more powerful than him.

However, Jordan today is the first season of his career. Where can he have so much experience and so many leadership talents?

So when you meet a superstar like Johnson, you have to fight hard with them, there is no chance of winning, but the head coach did just that.

Yin Jun looked at Phil Jackson over the coach seat. This is not yet a bearded Zen master. He looked at the stadium with a daze, and did not know what he was thinking.

It's still too young!

Juvenile with the hope of keeping him on board next season, he decided to let him grind for another year, and then watch Jordan off the court for a year, so that he can tailor the tactics for Jordan and others.

To put it bluntly is "triangle tactics." This is the tactic that is best known for Jordan.

With the existence of Pippen and Rodman, this tactic is simply overwhelming, bringing great honor to Jordan.

This time Jordan's helpers are no worse than Pippen and Rodman. There is no reason for championship coaches like Phil Jackson to find a tactic that suits them!

As for the players, the geniuses ...

Yin Jun also felt that failure was not a bad thing for them.

High spirits and good talent, this is very good.

But if you look down on the heroes of this world and think that success will come easily, it will be bad.

It's fine now.

The Los Angeles Lakers gave them a good moment to let them know what is the real championship team!

With such a lesson on the road to growth, they who want to come next year will definitely learn from the experience and continue to grow!
