There is the most amazing rookie, so naturally there is the most disappointing rookie-Milicic.
As this year's No. [-] pick, he even had a chance to threaten James' No. [-] pick.
However, Milicic still failed to show his strength and the value of this second pick.
During the preseason, everyone would still say that because Milicic did not adapt to the rhythm of the NBA, we should give him time.
But the problem is that Milicic is from Europe and has never participated in an NBA game. The problem of adaptation is inherently hot.
But throughout the offseason, Milicic didn't solve this problem. Could it be that he can solve it during the season?
In the game between the Pistons and the Pacers the day before yesterday, the dignified No. 1 pick did not get even a minute of playing time.
Among them, there may be reasons for Larry Brown, well, there must be reasons for him, he is a rookie killer.
Moreover, in a key game like the Pacers, he does not allow the slightest surprise.
It's just that Milicic failed to show enough strength, and his life will only become more difficult.
In the middle of the season, after Roaring Tianzun joins, it will only further squeeze Milicic's playing space.
……
Just when fans and the media were discussing heatedly, as the current president of the NBA, he was also the one who brought the NBA back from the brink of death.
David Stern was very happy at this time, because the game just past proved that the globalization of the NBA is effective.
This Huaguo Derby between the Heat and Mosaic not only attracted the attention of Chinese fans in the United States, but also Huaguo fans thousands of miles away.
Back then, in order to open up overseas markets, David Stern suffered a lot, but everything was worth it.
The ratings of this game prove that the overseas market has great potential, but it needs the continuous digging and hard work of the NBA.
"Xiaohua, and Mark, there is a lot to do in the overseas market. We must pay more attention to it. You two must pay attention to it."
Adam Xiaohua is the vice president of the NBA and the president of the Entertainment League, and Mark Tatum is the assistant to the president, both of whom are high-ranking and powerful people in the NBA.
Although David Stern has no plans to retire yet, nor does he plan to train a successor, but these major events must always be communicated with the two.
"Is it necessary? David, what I mean is that most of the NBA's profits come from North America, and the profits from overseas markets are too little."
"That's right, there are not many profits in overseas markets, which is why we need to continue to develop and expand profits.
What's more, although the United States is the foundation, it is very difficult to continue to expand profits; the overseas market is different, it is still a desert, and we need to develop it. "
Mark Tatum also said: "I understand what you mean, David, the overseas market is like extra money, we have no reason to give up, right?"
……
"Give it a try, see if you can push Chen out, and LeBron, international players against local players, 23 vs 24, it should be very topical."
Adam Xiaohua was a little surprised that David Stern valued Chen Mo so much, to the point where he was on the same level as LeBron.
"Is this necessary? David, I mean, does Chen have the strength to fight against LeBron?"
David Stern said with a smile: "It's always right to try, the overseas market is so big, there must be a representative.
In fact, I had this idea a long time ago, but unfortunately, that big German man always had impressive results.
Moreover, no matter how well inside players play, they are always not as attractive as outside players. "
According to the fact that the NBA has always looked down on outsiders, why was Nowitzki able to win the regular season MVP in 2006?
Not because of David Stern's global promotion, he needs some top international players to promote the NBA.
In 2006, not only Nowitzki won the regular season MVP, but Bariani also became the No. [-] pick.
From 2005 to 2007, it can be said that it was the most popular period for international players in the NBA market.
It's just that with the later international players, one by one, this stopped this trend.
No way, looking at Nowitzki, Yao Ming, and Gasol, the top insiders in the NBA, it is no wonder that international big players are sought after.
Mark Tatum quickly said: "Understood, David, I will pay attention to Chen's game."
Two days later, the Heat arrived in San Antonio, where they will challenge the Spurs away.
The start is a series of away trips. It has to be said that the NBA is too unfriendly to weak teams.
That's right, the NBA schedule is like this. The worse the score, the longer the consecutive away games, and the more back-to-backs.
Anyway, they all lose, how many more games they lose, or how they lose, is there any difference?
This is not a problem in regular time, but it is a big problem when it comes to the critical period of competing for tickets to the playoffs.
As the defending champion, the Spurs game is definitely the most eye-catching of all televised games this year.
The Spurs are second only to the Lakers, Knicks and other big city teams in the games broadcast within the whole meter range.
Today's game happened to be a full-meter live broadcast. However, Duncan sprained his ankle in the last game and will not return for a short time, but it made this game a bit tasteless.
Unexpectedly, Chen Mo suddenly exploded, and even suppressed James in performance, becoming the rookie No.1.
Now, fans all over the meter are paying attention to Chen Mo. Of course, some people are paying attention to when Chen Mo will be beaten back to his original form.
Domestic TV broadcasting did not continue to engage in live broadcasting. After all, funds are limited, and domestic broadcasting is enough.
In the United States, TNT also conducted a full-meter live broadcast today. The two commentators are also Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley, who are very familiar to everyone.
"Charles, Tim Duncan got his second ring last year, as a player who has never won a championship, how do you feel now!"
"I want to beat you up, can I?"
Speaking of it, Barkley is pitiful enough. He hugged his thigh at the end of his career just to get a ring.
As a result, he, who went to hug his thigh, played with his thigh abruptly. The problem is that he has not yet won the championship.
It's Kenny Smith now, and there will be O'Neill in the future, teasing him about it all day long.
"OK, it's still live broadcasting now, you definitely can't beat me up, then tell me, who do you like more in today's game?"
"Of course it's San Antonio. Does this kind of thing need to be considered?"
"Oh, is it? You know, without Tim, the Spurs' lineup is not complete. You think they can win."
"Never underestimate the power of a championship."
In his words, Barkley was full of envy for the championship, and he was envious of his real name.
"Really? Isn't it because Chen said that you will lose and kiss the ass?"
"It's been a long time, can you stop talking about it?"
Although Barkley is a bit thick-skinned, but when it comes to this embarrassing thing, he still minds it very much.
"Haha... well, Charles, do you want to gamble again, or kiss the ass of the donkey?"
"No, Kenny, it should be you showing your ass in front of all the audience, and you haven't paid your bill yet!"
Well, speaking of this matter, Kenny Smith was also embarrassed for a while, and quickly changed the subject.
