0059: [Match starts]
Back in the dormitory, the puppy looks at the University of Memphis video feed, trying to find more loopholes.
He was never a man who gave up on himself, he believed that opportunities were reserved for those who were prepared.
After about two hours, he turned off his computer and got up to bed. Miley Sellers suddenly called, and she told the puppy very frankly on the phone: "Snoopy, tomorrow I will go to Stamps to watch your game, and my company will also promote this." The VP listened to our chorus and she thought we could make a perfect couple. ”
"There was a lot of news today, and the company didn't want to hurt either me, Selena, and Nick Jonas. So the best way to do that is to admit that I'm with you. ”
"I know you have a girlfriend. I don't want to affect your life, I like women more now, I won't fall in love with any man anymore. ”
"I know you've been preparing for the draft lately, and you need visibility too, which is good for your draft. Moreover, the company promises you that in the future, as long as there is a performance, you will be called. ”
"I'm sure your girlfriend will understand. At most, half a year, I will publicly announce that we broke up because of personality differences. ”
"You won't lose anything from it, I swear!"
“……”
Miley Sellers made a lot of guarantees.
"Don't kiss me without permission anymore. Well, you go and convince my girlfriend. ”
This is a request made by the puppy.
Miley Sellers on the other end sneered, feeling both sorry and amused. Then he said: "We'll be approaching Ms. Jennifer Lawrence, who, as an actress, will definitely be more receptive to this kind of ambiguous gossip publicity than you." ”
Hanging up the phone, the puppy felt a little ridiculous: What am I? Is it a contract couple?
……
The NCAA Final Four has always been hotter than the NBA, and even if tickets are sold more than twice as expensive as the Lakers' regular season, tickets are still hard to come by, and scalpers make a lot of money.
Normally, the NCAA Final Four is held in American football stadiums, and there are 60,000 or 70,000 people at every turn, which is comparable to a grand festival. The reason the UCLA-University of Memphis matchup was scheduled at Stamp Arena was because Los Angeles Memorial Stadium was just out of space. As a result, many spectators who flew in from all over the country had to stay outside the arena and watch live on television.
TNT, the media outlet responsible for the nation's live broadcast of the Final Four, bought the rights from the NCAA at a high price. This money will eventually go to the schools that will participate in the Final Four. The NCAA giants can earn tens of millions of dollars a year, which is why the salary of NCAA coaches is even higher than that of NBA coaches.
When the puppy entered the arena, almost the entire stadium was chanting his name: Snoopy! Snoopy! Snoopy!
This surprised him, he himself did not expect that he would have such a high popularity.
Also unexpectedly was the Lakers delegation sitting in the VIP seats.
"Jordan, it looks like your junior brother is even more popular than you were back then." Jeanie Bass teased Jordan Famar.
Although Jordan Farmar is unknown in the NBA, he is a UCLA legend, having led the team to the finals in '06, the closest UCLA has come to a championship since the new century.
"Who doesn't know that he has been in a hot fight with Disney's little princess lately? And... The Orange County Chronicle has never reported on me like this, and for four weeks, the Saturday special headlines of the Orange County Chronicle have been dominated by him forever. Jordan Farmar sounded a little jealous of his junior brother: "There is also the sports section of the daily newspaper, and Californians can see his first-hand counseling almost every day, including doing strength training several times a day and completing several sets of inverted spur ball training ......." It is not an exaggeration to say that Snoopy is something that the people of California have watched grow up day by day. ”
Coach Winter, a loyal subscriber to the Orange County Chronicle, nodded. "Actually, I know the kid very well, his weight has grown from 95 kg to 98 kg and now back to 96 kg, and he has improved from 32 minutes to 16 minutes. In addition, his bench press training is decreasing dramatically, and he is less focused on strength training and more on short sprints, although there is no specific data on this. But combined with the revelations of Sports Illustrated Darren Collison the day before yesterday, it is not difficult to guess that his movement speed should not be fast. After all, in that revelation, he couldn't even complete the dunk with the ball. His coordination was completely ruined by the sudden increase in height! ”
Kupchak nodded, and he then asked, "Then who do you think will have the advantage in his matchup with Joy Dorsey tonight?" ”
"Joey Dorsey, of course, Joey Dorsey is taller, stronger, and more powerful. He has a lead in every statistic, especially in weight, where he is almost 30 kilograms heavier than Snoopy. For players who are stuck inside, tonnage is a favorable condition that cannot be ignored. "The only thing Snoopy is better than Joey Dorsey is free throw percentage," Winter said. ”
Kupchak nodded. Coach Winter's attitude is clear to him, and he is clearly not inclined to the team to choose Snoopy. In his opinion, the Lakers' current roster is perfect. However, if the team wants to add a mascot to cater to the Chinese market, he will not object, anyway, Phil Jackson does not like to use substitutes.
At this time, there was a burst of exclamations in the stadium!!
The three Disney princesses walked out of the special passage escorted by security personnel, with Miley Sellers at the front, followed by Demi and Selena.
They waved their arms at the screaming young fans in front of the audience.
Such a move caused an even greater uproar.
"Disney really spares no effort to gain exposure for their little princesses." Earl Johnson in the commentary seat complained slowly. As a veteran paly-by-play commentator, he doesn't like entertainment stars to go to the sidelines to rub their exposure with great fanfare.
"Didn't you notice that all three of them were wearing UCLA number 10 jerseys today?" Kenny Smith asked rhetorically.
"So what? Are they Snoopy fans? "Earl Johnson doesn't care about gossip in the entertainment industry.
"I can't say for sure if Selena and Demi are, but Miley certainly is. The day before yesterday, she kissed the UCLA-born short center in public on Center Avenue in Hollywood. Kenny Smith gossiped; I'm really looking forward to their interaction in Stamp today. ”
Charles Barkley on the other side glanced at Kenny Smith angrily: "How else can you interact?" Do you want to do AI in public? ”
His bluntness is frightening.
The director next to him was even more frightened, but fortunately, he had not yet cut into the live broadcast signal.
Otherwise, a good live show has to be talked about by him for 18 bans.
Time flies!
Arrive on time at 15:30!
The starters of both sides walked onto the court, and with the referee's whistle, the semifinals of UCLA vs. Memphis officially began!
