【15] I am not the me of the past, you are still the original you!
After the consecutive away games, the Warriors returned to their home court and got three days of rest.
Three days later, Su Mo and the Warriors will be at Oracle Arena to face the visiting Trail Blazers.
During this period, the results of the first round of voting for the All-Stars have been released. Su Mo won the first place in the first round of votes without any suspense, with a terrifying number of 2.1 million votes.
Kobe Bryant, who ranked second, only had 690,000 votes.
Su Mo almost had ten times the number of votes as the second place.
2.1 million votes in one round? What does this mean?
You must know that in the entire All-Star voting history of the NBA, the most votes in the voting, Dwight Howard last season, only got 3.1 million votes.
Now Su Mo's number of votes in one round is about to catch up with Howard.
For a while, the whole city was in uproar, and the whole country was amazed.
The same is true in China, far away on the other side of the ocean.
Kobe Bryant:"Su Mo received 2.1 million votes in one round, which is incredible. I think his final votes may reach at least 500,000+! Crazy number!"
Charles Barkley:"The strong fan base of China is only part of it. More importantly, Su Mo has been creating history and miracles. This is exactly the kind of miracle the NBA wants!"
Michael Jordan:"It's an incredible number of votes, but Su Mo fully deserves such praise because he has achieved a record that is unique among rookies in history!"
At the same time, the sales of the"Nike Generation 1" sneakers issued by Su Mo, which he signed with Nike, reached an unprecedented 3 million pairs in the first week. Nike's production volume is seriously insufficient and is being replenished.
For Nike, the profit generated by the"Su Mo Generation 1" sneakers in the first week alone is enough for them to recover all the investment they paid in Su Mo.
Even Su Mo himself did not expect that the sales of the sneakers he endorsed would be so popular, which made him even more grateful for his original choice.
Because the contract Su Mo signed with Nike was 50 million for 3 years, and he also had a 3% profit share.
Austin, the agent, called Su Mo and praised him.
Then, Su Mo asked about the dividend.
After all, in this world, money is the bottom line.
"Austin, I want to ask, with the sales of 3 million sneakers this time, how much profit can Nike make?"
Austin on the other end of the phone thought for a moment and said,"This is more complicated, but with a simple estimate, the dividends must be tens of millions!"
Su Mo was surprised and happy,"Tens of millions? A lot?"
"Of course, and this is only one week's worth of sneakers. In the future, your sneakers will sell even better. Su Mo, I can tell you responsibly that you have made a fortune!"
Su Mo's sneakers sold more than 3 million copies in the week after they were released. This caused a sensation throughout the United States and even the world.
Not only in the NBA, but even if you look at the sales of any celebrity-endorsed products, they can no longer be compared with Su Mo's current sales.
Thinking that his income will increase exponentially as the sales of sneakers continue to rise, Su Mo is naturally ecstatic at this moment.
At the same time, he is also more determined to play a more exciting performance in the next game to give back to the fans who spent money to support him.
After three days of rest, the Warriors also ushered in the challenge of the Portland Trail Blazers at home.
At 9 pm local time, the Oracle Center was packed with people.
Su Mo is no stranger to the Trail Blazers. In the third game after the start of the new season, Su Mo and the Warriors faced the Trail Blazers.
In the end, Su Mo also scored 42 points, 5 rebounds, 4 attacks, 1 steal and 4 blocks in this game, successfully restricting Roy on both offense and defense.
If there were still many suspense in the confrontation between the two teams at the beginning of the season, then So now, the Trail Blazers are probably no longer comparable to the Warriors.
At the signal of the referee, the starting players of both teams walked onto the court.
The Trail Blazers' starting lineup: Andre Miller, Brandon Roy, Nicolas Batum, LaMarcus Aldridge, Greg Oden.
The Warriors' starting lineup remained unchanged: Stephen Curry, Monta Ellis, Su Mo, Stephen Jackson, Anthony Tolliver.
The game officially began, and the Trail Blazers successfully jumped the ball in the center circle and won the first wave of offensive balls Right.
After Roy came to the front court, he shot directly from the outside and the basketball went into the net.
It can be seen that Roy was ready to explode in the game against the Warriors tonight.
But in the face of real strength, no matter how strong the will is, it is futile.
Less than three minutes after the start, Roy scored 10 points in a row, and his performance was quite explosive.
However, after Su Mo took the initiative to request to defend Roy, the opponent quickly fell silent.
First quarter, 8 minutes and 12 seconds.
Su Mo successfully blocked Roy's pass on the defensive end, and a long pass assisted Ellis who rushed to the front court to make a layup.
6 minutes and 55 seconds.
It was Su Mo again, who stole the ball from Roy on the defensive end and caused the opponent to foul.
6 minutes and 2 seconds.
Su Mo's oppressive defense made Roy at a loss, and he eventually made a mistake in passing the ball, which directly ruined an offensive opportunity.
Under Su Mo's defense, Roy quickly became depressed, and he was completely different from the fiery player at the beginning of the game. In this way, the Warriors naturally took the initiative on the court.
The defense tried its best, and the offense was also very successful. Su Mo frequently made good shots, which not only scored points, but also were very entertaining, making the Warriors fans at home scream and excited.
After the first quarter, the Warriors (30): (18) Trail Blazers were already leading by a full 12 points.
Su Mo played the entire first quarter, contributing 21 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, and 8 of 9 shots, with extremely high efficiency.
Under such circumstances, the morale of the Trail Blazers also directly fell.
On the commentary stand, Mike Breen also shook his head and sighed, sighing:"The current Roy is still the Roy at the beginning of the season, but Su Mo is no longer the Su Mo at the beginning of the season!"
Van Gundy echoed,"Yes, the current Su Mo is no longer comparable to any star in the league. Not to mention Roy, even LeBron and Kobe are probably half a step behind him!"
