One Guard

"With the popularity of online media today, our recent sales are simply incredible!" In an office in a San Antonio office, the owner of the San Antonio Post newspaper looked at the increased daily sales and couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

In 2013, this was an era of information explosion. As long as you turn on your mobile phone, countless news you are interested in will be automatically pushed over, and you don't even need to spend time looking for it yourself.

Therefore, now the traditional newspaper industry has been greatly impacted by the Internet media, and basically no newspaper has a prosperous business.

The San Antonio Post is no exception. A few years ago, they were still one of the most influential media in the holy city. However, in recent times, the newspaper’s income can barely maintain a basic balance of payments.

No way, the timeliness of online media is completely incomparable to traditional media. As soon as the game is over, various videos and news about the game will immediately appear on the Internet. Few people would wait until the next morning as foolishly as before before reading the newspaper to learn about outdated information.

In order to get out of this predicament, the "San Antonio Post" decided to find another way. They have to do something different from online media.

After several attempts, they found that writing some "black" Yiyang articles in the newspaper seemed very popular with the locals of San Antonio. The reason why many people buy the San Antonio Post is just to see what kind of method the media will use today to complain about Yiyang. And these original contents are not available to the online media.

This incident illustrates three things. First, the management of the San Antonio Post is very smart. Second, the Spurs fans hate Yiyang very much. Third, the commercial value of Yiyang is immeasurable!

If the "San Antonio Post" replaces the protagonist of "Black" with Nowitzki, Iguodala or other people, the sales of their newspapers will not rise. Because only Yiyang has such topicality and has such terrifying economic benefits.

On the one hand, the "San Antonio Post" "black" Yiyang every day, on the other hand, they are actually relying on Yiyang to make money.

However, the boss of this newspaper office does not matter what he does, he has the money to enter the account. This is the last word.

After the newspaper published articles that were unfavorable to Yiyang for several days, Bill Duffy and Adidas were a little bit intolerable. Because the words of this newspaper have seriously affected Yiyang's reputation and image in front of the public. Maybe Yiyang himself doesn't care what others say about him, but Duffy and Adidas, who are counting on Yiyang's fire, don't want to see the group of clowns go online.

Therefore, Adidas launched a counterattack to the San Antonio Post. Of course, they are using Yiyang's Twitter account.

When signing a contract with Adidas, there is a clause in the contract. In order to promote the product, Adidas has the right to use Yiyang's Twitter account to post some information for promotion. This clause is nothing unusual, basically every company will reach such an agreement with its own star.

But the information that Adidas released when it first exercised this right was not a product promotion, but a very offensive statement.

"Shut up, we will regroup in San Antonio." In a simple sentence, there is an Adidas logo picture below. Such a seemingly ordinary tweet was forwarded to every corner of the world in just one hour!

Although they didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew that the word "shut up" was meant for the San Antonio Post. This tweet is Yiyang's counterattack against the newspaper!

"Come on, as long as you win the game, our follow-up series of operations can definitely push the newspaper to the bottom! But the point is, you must win the game!" Two hours after the message was sent, Bill Duffy called Yiyang. Phone.

He and Adidas have formulated a series of strategies to suppress the newspapers to preserve Yiyang's reputation, but all of these must be based on Yiyang's victory in San Antonio.

If the Mavericks and Yiyang suffered a four-game losing streak in San Antonio, it would be futile to operate, and the San Antonio Post would be more popular. Therefore, victory has become the key to everything.

"Even if I don't fight against the newspaper, I will definitely do my best. Don't worry, Mr. Duffy, I won't let the San Antonio people get what they want in the game tomorrow."

Yiyang smiled, he knew that his manager and Adidas were doing it for his own good. But even without these external factors, the Spurs are an opponent that Yiyang must win if they do their best.

The three-game losing streak of the regular season has caused the Mavericks to fall into a vortex of public opinion, and they desperately need a victory to get out of the predicament. But more important than the three-game losing streak, the San Antonio Spurs are destined to become a major obstacle for Yiyang to lead his team to the finals! If they can't beat them in the regular season, how can the Mavericks get past the corpses of the Spurs in the playoffs?

Therefore, no matter from which point of view, this game is a game where Yiyang must make every effort to win.

Old Carter's dreams, the Mavericks' achievements, Adidas' interests and Yiyang's own unwillingness... these many factors left Yiyang with no choice but to win the game. It seems that every battle between cattle and horses is destined to not be peaceful...

※※※

The Dallas Mavericks are actively preparing for this must-win game, but in the ATT Center, the pre-match atmosphere of the Spurs is actually not much easier than the Mavericks.

After experiencing a hearty 11-game winning streak, the Spurs' results have been ups and downs. If this is not the case, the league's first position will not fall to the Mavericks.

The Spurs just lost to the Rockets in the last game, which made Popovich very annoyed. Because in the eyes of the old man, the Rockets are simply a pseudo-strong team, and the combination of Harden and Howard is not as bluff as they seem. But the Spurs capsized in the Houston gutter.

After an uncomfortable defeat, everyone is eager to win a return. Under such circumstances, the Dallas Mavericks have become a prey to the door.

"Tony, your slow movement is not as fast as the old man Liszt next door to my house! Is it possible that you want to use this state to deal with it!? God, I really hope you won't lose face tomorrow! "

Popovich's roar once again filled the entire training hall, and the Spurs players have long been accustomed to the old man's temper. If you don't do a good job at all, you will be scolded, whether you are a star or a substitute.

Therefore, Parker was not angry after being yelled and did not respond. Want to change the status quo? Then let the old man see your performance on the training ground.

After being scolded, Parker's running really became active. But the guy Duncan seems to be a bit lazy on the offensive end.

Popovich blushed. He really didn't know how these old guys who had been scolded by him for more than ten years would make mistakes.

"Tim, are you thinking about the soap opera at 8 o'clock last night!? What kind of position do you want? Do you long for the Germans to watch you slip away from him tomorrow with tears in tears!?"

As soon as Popovich said this, the players' laughter broke out in the training ground. The old man made fun of people, but he did a set of things.

Duncan, the taciturn big guy, didn't respond to Popovich, but waved his hand to beckon him to pay attention later.

Parker and Duncan are back on track, but Ginobili's pass error, DP these three guys, is deliberate!

"Well done Manu, really a wonderful pass! If it were placed in a formal game, I can now enjoy the dunk show of Yi!" This time, Popovich did not yell, but satirically The ground clapped.

"You bastards, throw away all the "San Antonio Post" you have! That group of idiots wrote the Mavericks worthless in the newspaper, as if because of a few articles of no level, people all over the world Forget about who is the number one in the league. It’s not us~www.novelmtl.com~, it’s the Dallas Mavericks! It’s the Dallas Mavericks who have only lost four games so far this season! Those clowns are just for money. , If you really think the Mavericks are easy to deal with, then the next one to be ridiculed by the media is you! All give me a twelve-point spirit, our opponent, but the league's top point guard and team!"

Popovich's roar made all the Spurs players put away their hippie smiles. The old guy was right. The recent public opinion on this side did leave the public with the impression that the Mavericks are weak. But in fact, the other party is just not going well during this period.

Carter was injured, Yiyang was suspended... these things will affect the team to some extent. Although the Mavericks still lost the first game after Yiyang came back, many people overlooked one point. The Warriors won the game by lore, and they won't be easy!

The Mavericks are still the Mavericks, they haven't become weaker, and they are still number one in the league. If taken lightly, the Mavericks will definitely not be merciful.

Popovich's roar seems to have brought back the soul of the Spurs players. They suddenly realized that what they were facing in the next game was not a shrimp soldier, but a formidable opponent.

"Well, let me continue training. If anyone dares to make mistakes or negative attitudes later, don't blame me for letting him sit on the bench tomorrow!"

The training of the Spurs continued to be restarted in an orderly manner under the supervision of Popovich. Originally, the Mavericks could easily win by taking advantage of the underestimation of the Spurs players. But now, this possibility has been completely stifled by Popovich.

Want to win? Then come head-to-head and steal the victory!

Both parties who are doing their part have already drawn out the swords in their sheaths, and the fight in San Antonio will be quite bloody.
