Chapter 484 Little Giant VS King of Detroit
The Houston Rockets' record this season is not ideal, barely reaching the edge of the Western Conference playoffs.
Of course, this is only Dayao's second season in the league, still considered his rookie season.
Moreover, in this era known as the Wild West, being able to make it to the playoffs means that there is a place for you in the league.
It can also be called a not weak team.
When Yao Yao of the Rockets heard that Wang Feng scored 60+ points, he suddenly felt nervous, and even more envious.
You know, Wang Feng is the kind of player who gets stronger when he is strong and becomes stronger when he is weak. If he has the opportunity to abuse others, he will not give up.
Compared to the Pistons, the Rockets are really a weak team.
Moreover, he was the No. 02 pick in and has yet to make a name for himself in the NBA. Although he is famous and extremely popular, he actually relies on his popularity in his motherland.
His court value and commercial value in the beautiful country have not yet been fully realized.
Wang Feng, on the other hand, has already produced gorgeous statistics and records, and has already fulfilled his talents and abilities.
Therefore, Wang Feng's commercial value is much higher than that of Dayao, and now his commercial value is catching up with first-line stars.
This situation is also one that David Stern is happy to see. After all, his greatest wish is to promote NBA games overseas, especially in old Europe and across the ocean.
Nowadays, old Europe still mainly watches football and is not very interested in basketball games.
Basketball is developing well in the ancient country across the ocean, and it is a good potential market.
David Stern attaches great importance to this game because it is a duel between popular rising stars and it is a highly entertaining game.
There is no doubt that David Stern changed this game to a live broadcast in the United States to let the beautiful people see his overseas promotion achievements.
In the publicity of the official media, the game between Dayao and Wang Feng at the Palace of Auburn Hills was positioned as a match between the Little Giants and the King of Detroit, a duel between popular rising stars.
Previously, the Pistons and Rockets played a game at the Toyota Center Arena, and today at the Palace Arena of Auburn Hills, home of the Pistons, there was another hometown showdown.
Before the game, Dayao took the initiative to chat with Wang Feng.
"King of Detroit, this nickname is amazing, Wang Feng!"
Dayao said enviously again with his standard "囧" face, looking quite happy.
Wang Feng responded with a smile: "Brother Yao, don't listen to their nonsense. I don't want to be the king of Detroit. You know, this city of Detroit has declined and is completely unworthy of the famous name of the Motor City." , they are almost bankrupt."
Seeing that Wang Feng was so dissatisfied with Detroit, Dayao immediately extended an olive branch.
"Wang Feng, do you want to join the Rockets after your rookie contract expires? I will make you the boss of the team. We will be invincible with our two swords. What do you think of my idea?"
Wang Feng naturally wants to leave the Detroit Pistons, but this is already three years later, and it is too early to say this now.
"Brother Yao, don't worry, if I want to leave Detroit, I will definitely contact you!"
"Then let's make an agreement!"
Dayao was in a much better mood at this time. With Wang Feng flying, he was not allowed to take off.
Just as he was talking, the atmosphere in the Palace Arena of Auburn Hills began to become heated, and both sides of the game began to warm up.
"Welcome to the Palace of Auburn Hills, today is the day when the King of Detroit takes on the challenge of the Little Giant.
This is a game where Mars hits the earth. Although the Pistons have the highest record in the league, the Rockets in the Western Conference are not a vegetarian. The so-called top three teams in Texas are all very powerful.
Let's see what interesting things will happen today! "
