Jiang Hao's smile when he came off the field was a bit weird, which made Beverly want to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. It wasn't until this moment that he realized that he had been teased completely by a rookie tonight.

“What a harmless bastard.”

Beverley is sure that this will become one of the unforgettable scenes in his NBA career.

11 points!

Jiang Hao did not score 20 again this night, but this does not seem to prevent him from becoming the number one contributor to the team's final victory.

"Jiang seems to be playing Kawhi's role"

Some Spurs fans lamented that when Leonard was not injured in the past, he would always be Popovich's first choice at critical moments like this, and he has given back to Popovich with countless decisive performances.

Povich's trust.

The reason why the team is stuck in the quagmire this season is precisely because of the lack of Kawhi Leonard at critical moments. If there is a healthy Leonard, the Spurs' record will definitely not be so miserable. But now, this flaw seems to be because of Jiang Hao

The birth of the world will be wiped out.

115:103!

The game is over, and the Spurs, who are playing away from home, have won four consecutive games.

"Old man, you have to tell me that it was a gamble, right?"

After the game, Popovich and Rivers came together, and Rivers asked righteously that until now, he could not imagine that Popovich would make that choice at a critical moment.

"Haha, you can understand it this way." Popovich smiled proudly. He just liked seeing Rivers's expression.

"Okay, congratulations, you have found another guy with unlimited potential." Rivers breathed a sigh of relief. After all these years, as always, he had to admire Popovich's ability to discern pearls.

However, what Rivers didn't know was that this time it wasn't Popovich who had the discerning eye, but Jiang Hao himself who was favored by heaven.

………

After an incredible four-game winning streak, people discovered that the Spurs, who had fallen out of the top eight last week, suddenly appeared in third place in the standings. In front of them were the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets.

His team.

"Man, this is the charm of the San Antonio Spurs. Over the years, whenever everyone thinks they should tear down and rebuild, they always stand up like an invincible little strong. As the Spurs have shown in this four-game winning streak

Resilience, ask the four-star Warriors if they are willing to face the Spurs again in the playoffs."

Jiang Hao and the others returned to San Antonio the next day. For the next week, they did not need to go out to play games. Three consecutive home games were waiting for them.

For Jiang Hao, this is a rare opportunity to take a breather and use the home schedule to improve his abilities as much as possible. Although he has some bright spots in the past four games, he has exposed more problems.

Take the long-range three-pointer he hit against Beverley's defense as an example. Although he hit the shot, it was more about dribbling. On the competition field, relying on luck to survive is definitely a retarded idea.

Just imagine, if the ball failed to hit and was intercepted by Beverley instead, the consequences would be another situation. The Clippers would most likely turn defeat into victory. At that time, Jiang Haoke would become the team's loser.

The main person responsible.

He can't be so lucky every time, and there are many strong defenders like Beverley in the entire league. He can't rely on luck to complete the offense every time.

"Jiang, can you do me a favor?"

After returning to the rental house after an afternoon of training, Jiang Hao found Sean waiting for him at the door.

"Xiao, just tell me if you have anything to do. I will help anyone who can." Jiang Hao was a little surprised. Apart from basketball, what else could he do to Xiao Xiao? Does this guy want to practice basketball? If so, he could indeed help.

.

"I hope your avatar can appear at the door of my western restaurant, which will bring good popularity to my restaurant," Sean said with a smile.

"Advertisement?" Jiang Hao knew that Sean had a restaurant near the team's home arena, but would it really be useful to just put his profile picture at the door?

"Jiang, don't underestimate your influence. Now you have become a topic of conversation among the fans. It is obvious that you are conquering everyone. Since Tony, San Antonio has not seen anyone as amazing as you for a long time.

You are a rookie, and everyone is saying that you will become a star player." As if he had guessed Jiang Hao's inner thoughts, Sean took the initiative to say.

"I will give you a certain commission in proportion every month. Of course, this may be insignificant to you in the near future."

"No, Xiao, if I can help you, that would be the best. You know, you are the only friend I have in San Antonio."

Jiang Hao is a person who knows how to be grateful. Sean extended a helping hand to him when he was in the most difficult time. Now he has the opportunity to repay Sean. Of course he doesn't want to repay him. What's more, he himself has no losses.

What.

"If I have the chance, I will recommend LaMarcus and others to eat at your restaurant. I think this will further help you."

After sending Sean away, Jiang Hao sat on the sofa. Speaking of remuneration, he was still short of some money.

Part of the new contract he signed will only be paid next month, and now he needs to invest a lot of money in training.

As Englander said, this is the age of technology, and many training aids are still very useful.

"Maybe we can just ask Buford to see if we can advance a salary in advance," Jiang Hao thought. Apart from this method, there seemed to be no other way.

However, what Jiang Hao didn't expect was that the funds needed for training did not bother him for too long. On his way to the training hall the next day, he received a call.

The other party is Nike, a world-famous sporting goods brand.

After some conversation, Jiang Hao received his first sneaker contract in his career. Nike offered him a one-year sneaker contract worth US$180,000.

Of course, this is just a very conventional sneaker contract.

Obviously, for Nike, which has a keen sense of smell, they saw green dollars from Jiang Hao, and because Jiang Hao only signed a one-year minimum salary contract with the Spurs and just started playing NBA games, even though they knew that Jiang Hao

Behind it is the huge Chinese market, and now we don’t dare to offer a big contract to Jiang Hao.

For Jiang Hao, he didn't understand things like sneaker contracts, and he didn't have the opportunity to understand them.

Anyway, it was only a one-year contract, so he signed it. The first priority was to get a sum of money. As for one year later, when the conditions were mature, he would consider these things carefully.
Chapter completed!
