Chapter 351 Good Sales
"Honey, you're finally back." At home, Olivia looked tearful.
Xiang Chu didn't pay attention to the comments from the outside world at all, and the first thing he did when he returned to Denver was to run home.
After a girl is pregnant, her emotional fluctuations will become very rich. If she wants to live a better life, she must spend as much time with her wife as possible.
After finishing Olivia with a meal made by himself, Xiang Chu started training again.
After eating the perfect meal, Olivia was in a good mood and watched Xiang Chu train from the side.
If Xiang Chu would take her to exercise before, at most she would just go for a walk now. Olivia thinks this treatment is better, although Xiang Chu has been a little bit verbose during this time.
This season the league feels chaotic, many teams have been sprayed, and the Nuggets players are gradually getting used to it.
But after returning to the home court, they can no longer lose casually.
The one who came to Denver to challenge them this time was the Thunder, which still lacked the strongest firepower. Like the Thunder, fighting spirit alone is useless. At critical moments, they couldn't find anyone to forcibly tear through the opponent's defense.
Compared with last time, the Thunder changed three starters.
One is the return of Reggie Jackson, and Jeremy Lamb and Lance Thomas have become the new second and third positions. The offensive end of this lineup must be stronger.
Coupled with Morrow's return, the Thunder's overall strength must have improved, but without Durant and Westbrook, this improvement may have limited effect.
The Nuggets' starting lineup has been very stable. They planned to take turns between Farid and Gallinari, but now the situation has changed. Anyway, Farid can't defend the fourth position with strong scoring ability, and Gallinari is even taller. Suitable for the current Nuggets.
However, Gallinari's confrontation is now a bit close, and Ibaka is basically holding the hammer.
But Xiang Chu hammered Adams even harder. In less than half a quarter, Adams fouled twice and went to rest.
Perkins stepped up. Perkins has not regressed significantly this season, but facing Xiang Chu who is getting stronger and stronger, his meat shield is becoming more and more difficult to use.
The rotations of both sides played well. Back home for the Nuggets, Williams, Chandler, and Dunleavy all performed well, but the Thunder's substitute lineup felt that the basket was more accurate, and they hit 3 three-pointers at once. He actually fought back and forth with the Nuggets.
The stalemate in the score continued until the middle of the second quarter, when the Thunder had a small problem on the offensive end because of Ibaka's drop in shooting percentage.
The Nuggets still output steadily, and they took the lead so smoothly.
Originally, the Thunder had two All-Stars, one failed and the other scored, but now they don't have either, so they really can only worry if they can't score time points.
However, at the end of the second quarter, Lamb's three-pointer still helped the Thunder stabilize the situation.
When the Nuggets entered the intermission, they led by 5 points.
The players who can enter the league are definitely not too bad. When they were in college, they were basically the favorites of heaven, so when the main players of the team are on truce, the players will always play better statistics.
But to help the team win, it takes a higher level.
The Nuggets expected players like the Thunder to be able to withstand the first half. Considering that in the international arena, there are quite a few teams that can withstand the first half of the US team, but in the second half, after targeted arrangements, The advantage of the strong team will gradually expand and swallow the weak team.
In the third quarter, after the Nuggets' defense became more targeted, the situation on the court turned out to be one-sided.
The rest of the Thunder couldn't score at all. In the end, Reggie Jackson could only play singles, but his efficiency was very average.
During the rotation period, Faried, Mozgov, and Chandler showed their power at the same time, and the Nuggets' lead suddenly reached double digits, and it continued to expand.
The strong teams were right to watch the third quarter. Although Thunder substitute Telfair broke out and played with Reggie Jackson in the backcourt, it was too difficult for them to catch up with the score.
The Nuggets already had a double-digit lead, but they overwhelmed each other inside and on the rebounds. Even if the Thunder scored 2 consecutive three-pointers at the last moment, it would not help.
Last season's Western powerhouse Thunder now has no resistance against the Nuggets. After the loss, the record is already the last in the Western Conference, and the outside world is also very embarrassing.
The injury is really fierce, and many fans have some sympathy for the Thunder.
But the team's record also made Thunder fans miss Harden very much. The finals lineup was easily dismantled by the Thunder management. This knot may not be eliminated for a lifetime.
Now there are various news about the return time of the Thunder's double and minor players. Their fans can only hope that the team's two aces can come back soon, otherwise the lineup that has a chance to compete for the championship may not be able to enter the playoffs.
For the Nuggets, the situation is not bad, and Belinelli also plans to come back.
However, the situation of the Thunder also made them vigilant. Now that they have a lot of players, they must do a good job of rotation and avoid any troublesome injuries.
It hasn't been long since Xiang Chu's signature shoes have been officially released, but the sales are still good.
As a big center, Nike was also worried before, and the current sales let them breathe a sigh of relief.
Although it is not too exaggerated, it is already stronger than many stars.
If Xiang Chu continues to perform well this season, the sales of his sneakers will not be bad.
Xiang Chu's advantage as a Chinese is now also shown. There are still a lot of Chinese in the United States, and his sneaker sales in China are also very good.
Nike considered this before signing him, and now they have realized more and more, and they also found Jim Smith again to discuss the renewal of the contract.
Xiang Chu's advice to Jim Smith is to talk first, but don't rush.
He is sure that his commercial value will only grow stronger as his strength grows.
Even if he can't become Nike's top brand, Xiang Chu is not willing to be just one of the many endorsement stars of the other side.
If you want to renew your contract, you must show enough sincerity. Xiang Chu has the confidence now, and there are many star brands who want to dig him now. The key is that he has enough commercial value.
The most important thing for basketball players is the sneaker contract. Other commercial endorsements don’t need to be so entangled. As long as there is a suitable opportunity, short-term cooperation and long-term contracts can be negotiated.
Athletes at Xiang Chu's level need to think more about things. For others, there is only the regular season at this time.
The current state of the Nuggets players has actually become more and more adapted to the rhythm of the game.
However, the competition within their team is also very large. Not everyone in the teams that are capable of competing for the championship has enough time to show themselves. George Karl is also responsible for keeping this kind of competition benign.
As for Xiang Chu, he spends more time on his wife now, but he has always been concerned about the team's affairs, and he is serious about defending the title.
