In the last game on the last day of 2005, the Magic unfortunately did not win. However, the wheels are always rolling forward. You can't always focus on the marks you have passed. That will not have any impact on your progress.
benefit.
So after the defeat, the Magic players quickly put the accident behind them and focused on the next game.
Although the Magic have put the matter behind them, commentator Matt Moore, who relied on the ba column, expressed his opinions immediately after the game. Although his previous articles rarely mentioned the Magic, this time he was very mean.
sharp.
"Although when he first came to Orlando, Nash's multi-million contract was questioned by many people, but with the Magic's wins one after another, all the doubts surrounding Nash have disappeared, and the Canadian has perfectly integrated.
Edison's Magic fast break system even has MVP-level abilities. This seems to be a good thing for the people of Orlando, but as Nash's condition gets better and better, the Magic gradually suffers from "Nash dependence syndrome"
"It's just that because of Nash's high appearance rate, it was not noticed by everyone. Until the last game, now without Nash, the Magic don't know how to win."
"Paul Edison said this sentence countless times before or after the game, 'We have to give the ball to Nash more, because he has a kind of magic. He can always control the situation of the game, and he can always make reasonable or inappropriate decisions.
Reasonably pass the ball to the most correct position.' This is naturally an honor for Nash, and it is the head coach's affirmation and support for him, but it also reflects the certain current situation of the Magic. Winning without Nash would be
The biggest difficulty. Howard, Martin, Josh Smith, and even Brand have all become accustomed to Nash's wonderful passing. When the passer changes from Nash to rookie Rondo, they don't adapt. In fact, Rondo
Too many passes can be considered fine, but in comparison, the Magic players are being tricked."
Here is a friendly reminder, everyone has habits. If you are used to staying in Beijing, you will definitely get oxygen faint when you go to Northern Europe. But you don’t need to worry too much, and you don’t need to bring any air bags there. You only need to bring a leather belt.
tube. Once you feel dizzy and have difficulty breathing, immediately connect one end of the tube to the car's exhaust pipe, and then inhale hard on the other side. You can adjust it in about 1 minute.
"Some people may say, what if the Magic really have Nash dependence? The last game was the only time Nash was absent, and it was not due to injury, so it is not universal, and it should not be worth mentioning alone. No.
Yes, Nash’s appearance rate in the past two years and even his appearance rate after entering the league are very reassuring. But don’t forget that he is already 31 years old. If an ordinary person is 31 years old, then we can
It is said that he is in his prime, the time when he is full of energy and can make great achievements, but for an athlete, this means that he has entered the last years of his career. His body will become more fragile, injuries will increase, and once
A serious injury may end his career. Even if he doesn't suffer from injuries, his physical functions will be reduced. In three to five years, he may no longer be able to keep up with the current rhythm of the Magic. He pushes the fast pace with one hand. Wait until this happens.
That day, I have to say it was a kind of irony..."
Although Matt Moore did not criticize and abuse the Magic like some people did, he sounded the alarm for the Magic from another angle. By the way, he revealed a message to every Magic fan, "Nash can only play for about 3 more years. If this
If we can't win a championship for a while, then the Magic will be out of business."
In addition to conspiracy, there is another kind of conspiracy in this world. What Matt Moore is using now is conspiracy. He did not distort anything, he just re-exposed a well-known fact about magic. As long as others follow his ideas
If you think about it, you will be taken to the ditch by him.
Matt Moore's hard-hitting advice, promoted by CBS, quickly spread to thousands of homes in Orlando. Even Edison's mother, Luna, who didn't know much about basketball, suggested it at a family dinner after New Year's Day.
In response to this question, I asked Edison if magic could only be popular for a year or two. This shows how important the impact of this article is. Naturally, other commentators were not willing to be lonely, and then this shareholder trend set off a trend of magic.
Data analysis mania.
In today's society, everything can be quantified, and information is unequal. Fans do not have detailed information on many things, but the media does. As long as they release some of the information they want, they can very well influence the hearts of fans.
For example, many media including espn, tnt, abc, etc. have released relevant information. For example, the Magic averaged 106.8 points per game this season, while Nash scored 14.1 points per game and also had 10.9 assists.
.If all assists are calculated as two points, Nash directly participated in creating as many as 35.9 points per game, accounting for one-third of the Magic's total points.
This ratio ranks ninth in the league, which doesn't seem high, but in front of him are Kobe, Iverson, James, Arenas and others, all of whom are scorers, and only Nash is an organizational player.
Moreover, Nash has a lot of indirect assists in every game, but these things are not shown in the data records. Therefore, in actual games, his impact on the team is much greater than the above-mentioned players, and his ranking is underestimated. A
I think it is self-evident how terrible it is to be a player who is ranked among the top ten in the league after being obviously underestimated.
So the fans in Orlando began to show their immature side again. According to Bianchi's reaction to Edison, even many people in the Magic Fan Club began to make moves. Although they didn't know what to do, they planned to
Put pressure on the club to achieve better results in a short period of time. But this will undoubtedly increase the burden on Edison and push him to the most utilitarian path.
Edison knows that when the team's top management is so sensitive, any slight disturbance is likely to have a huge negative impact on the team, so he plans to suppress this kind of thing quickly.
There are two ways to suppress public opinion in the world. 1. Zheng Fu comes forward and says, "We are all still young and the future prospects are still bright, so don't hurt each other." 2. Use more powerful public opinion to suppress the previous topic.
The first method was naturally not suitable for Edison. He could only use the second method, so after thinking about it for a while, he dialed the number of the beautiful reporter Andrews.
"How's Erin doing lately?..."
"..."
"Eileen, I have something to ask you for help?" After starting with a common greeting, Edison brought the topic to the whole.
"I knew there must be something wrong when you called me. Say, what matter?"
"Things cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences. In this way, I will wait for you at the Days Hotel at 7 o'clock tonight, and we will have an interview then."
…………
The Days Inn is located in the center of Orlando, next to Central Avenue. The location is very advantageous, and standing on the top floor of the building, you can see the brilliant lights and fireworks show of Disney Park from a distance.
Edison arrived here half an hour early. Because he was hungry, he ordered some desserts and then sat and waited for Andrews.
As a result, more than 10 minutes before 7 o'clock, Andrews also walked into the hotel.
Now Andrews is no longer the little reporter who was instigated by others. Since becoming the first special reporter of ESPN Magic, she has gained a lot of exposure. In this case, her outstanding appearance and sexy figure and
Geometric Form quickly became popular and has become a well-known figure in ESPN. Now Andrews is no longer a full-time team reporter for the Magic, but participates in many activities and even sometimes guest commentators. It can be said that he is in charge of his own job.
She is very capable. Many media in the entertainment industry have also discovered her potential. It is said that "Playboy" once invited her to be its cover girl, but she refused.
Although she has become famous, Andrews has not given up on her magic plot. Now, as long as she has a chance, she will definitely be a reporter after the Magic game in Orlando. Although she does not admit it, many people think that this is
Edison had a great influence on her, and at least she was grateful for his support and care back then.
Today I came to meet Edison. Andrews was dressed in a starry style. Although it was January, the temperature in Orlando was still around 10 degrees and it was not particularly cold, so Andrews wore a pink Prada suit, which was generous and decent, and his lower body was
Wearing black stockings and leopard print high heels, she showed off her sexiness. She carried a Hermès leather bag on her left hand and wore sunglasses that covered most of her face.
Edison looked at Andrews's outfit, and for some reason he suddenly remembered the scene when he and Rachel first met. At that time, Rachel also wore similar sunglasses. But now she is gone, and she doesn't know.
Can you still come back...
While Edison was still feeling sad, Andrews had already walked to his table, put his bag aside and shouted, "I'm starving to death. I can't survive anymore. I want to have a big meal." Then he picked up the menu and started.
flip."
Edison looked at Andrews and couldn't help but want to laugh, but after controlling it, he hurriedly called the waiter. In fact, Edison had been hungry for a long time.
After the two of them had a hearty meal, they looked at each other and smiled as they looked at the dishes on the table.
"Okay, let's get down to business after eating. What do you want from me?" Andrews put his hands on the dining table, then looked at Edison with a smile.
"That's right, Matt Moore recently published an article, which caused uproar all over the city. I hope you can use ESPN's resources to help me suppress this matter."
"I will try my best, but do you have any specific plans? How should I help you." When she heard that Edison was in trouble and needed help, Andrews agreed immediately without any hesitation, even before she knew Edison.
under planned circumstances.
After listening to Andrews' words, Edison took out a 2-page A4 paper from his briefcase and handed it to the other party.
"As long as you publish this article in your own name, it will be fine. Of course, you may have to change some of the specific wording to make the article more in line with your tone."
Andrews picked up the thing and glanced at it briefly, and then asked, "Just publish an article? Paul, the influence before was very great, it is impossible to suppress it so easily."
Edison smiled confidently after hearing this, "Don't worry, it will definitely work. Matt Moore put together the two views of 'Nash is very important' and 'Nash has reached the end of his career'. What he said is right, so it can arouse
Such a great response. However, he did not understand many of the things, but only chose the most gimmicky information. Therefore, many people can only follow the route prescribed by him, and the deeper you go on this road, the more you will understand.
I support his point of view. Now I just need to liberate the fans’ minds, explain the problem from another angle, and give them another way of thinking. By then, there will definitely be a group of people who think according to my ideas, so that
I can jump out from Matt and support my point of view. At that time, there will be a collision between these two opposing ideas. However, pure analysis in the competitive circle is meaningless. The key is performance, so they strive for
There is no explanation. But in this case, most centrists don’t know who to believe and will just stand there in a daze. As long as they are not mobilized, they will be fine, and everything will return to calm in the end.”
"What you said makes sense. Hopefully you can see this article published tomorrow."
"Thank you."
"Then why don't you treat me to a big dinner someday?"
