Chapter 71： Bergen Catholic Last Chance

In a coffee shop at the entrance of Stuyvesant Middle School, Curry, who had just won the game, was competing with his younger brother Seth for a cappuccino. Bob next door looked at the naive Curry brothers with contempt, and lowered his head to eat. Lamisu…

In a quiet corner, Zuo Li sat opposite the dusty Rich Paul.

"Sorry Zuo Li, this is the most suitable endorsement I can find for you at this stage." Rich Paul said to Zuo Li apologetically. Before leaving, he was full of confidence, but he personally ran a few places. I found out that finding an endorsement is much more difficult than negotiating with CAA executives, so I walked around New York and got only a few things.

This endorsement is the best. A local supermarket chain in New York has signed a contract for 2 years and costs 120,000 dollars. This price is also in the face of CAA. You only need to take a few sets of photos. It is also very cost-effective. 's representative.

"No, it's already very good, shouldn't you blame me, it's because I'm too famous." Zuo Li said jokingly.

This is the second thing Zuo Li asked Rich Paul to do to help him, that is to find some reliable endorsements. In the past two years, Zuo Li has successively saved 300,000 US dollars, mainly from AND1 contracts and scholarships , If you count this endorsement, there are more than 350,000, which is already a lot of income in this era, especially considering that Zuo Li is only a 15-year-old high school student.

But obviously, it's not enough.

There are still 4 years left before Zuo Li's vision. In these four years, Zuo Li needs to accumulate wealth as soon as possible. Of course, the more endorsements, the better.

As for the money, Zuo Li will naturally not put it in the bank to eat ashes. He has quietly asked Mr. Derek to open an account for him in the bank. This year, Zuo Li has been silently collecting Apple stocks. At this time, Apple is still A half-dead company, no one knows what kind of soaring he will usher in in the future.

But this is not Zuo Li's ultimate goal, his goal has been in 2008!

"Would you like me to go again..." Rich Paul asked sincerely. Although he was tired these days, he was very satisfied. This kind of satisfaction has never been obtained, especially although this endorsement is very small, it belongs to the basketball world. Mosquito meat category, but he can still get a lot of income, which is even higher than his annual income, which is enough to change his current life, how can he not try his best.

"Wait first, you touch first, in a few months, wait for me to win the state championship, and then go to New Jersey, which is my real battlefield this year!"

…

Can Stuyvesant win the state championship?

Before the season starts, people will think you're joking, Stuyvesant? Why? A basketball court is not the place for nerds.

However, as the season was halfway through, everyone began to face this topic, that is, playing at this rhythm, Stuyvesant may be getting closer to winning the state championship and realizing the miracle of a newly-promoted basketball player.

On New Year's Eve in 2004, Stuyvesant won the last victory of the year amid jubilation. Harry made a special trip to congratulate him. He also gave everyone in the team New Year's gifts, each with a mobile phone.

As the core of the team, the absolute leader, Zuo Li two.

In this era, it is definitely a big deal. After all, there is no salary in the high school league. It is all about love.

But looking at how much attention and education funds the basketball team has brought to them over the past year and a half, this gift is definitely worth the money.

It's a pity that Zuo Li had already bought the same model himself, so the phone was simply given to Elizabeth Olsen. The girl came back for Christmas and brought a Christmas gift to Zuo Li. Zuo Li was busy signing the contract and did not expect this. This made Olsen sad for a long time. This time, Zuo Li simply borrowed flowers to offer Buddha.

"Give it to me~ I like it very much!" Elizabeth Olsen happily went to self-study with a gift, watching Zuo Li conquer the school goddess with a mobile phone, Curry wrote all over his face Envy, is this a straight man's tricks for flirting with girls? I learned it and learned it.

And the other one was thrown to Rich Paul. This guy's flip phone cover is about to be broken. It is a miracle that he can contact people. Zuo Li also hopes to communicate more conveniently in the future.

The effect of the gift is huge. In the first game of the year, they all exploded. Bergen Catholic High School is currently ranked second. They are determined to seek revenge, but they met Stuyvesant in such a state...

"Oh, congratulations to Stuyvesant, they beat Bergen Catholic High School 100-67, completed a double play against their opponents, all 5 players scored in double figures, this is the first time of the season, and they have also cemented themselves at the top of the leaderboard. position, the number of wins has increased to as many as 4 games." After a crazy game, the commentator said in a hoarse voice.

Stuyvesant in this game was really a blast. All the villains, Bergen Catholic was completely fooled.

After this game, Stuyvesant almost established his place in the semi-finals of the playoffs, and not only that, Stuyvesant continued to remain unbeaten, and who could stop their winning streak has once again become a hot topic.

The answer is - no!

After double-killing Bergen Catholic High School, Stuyvesant made great strides and swept all his opponents, and finally completed his undefeated season once again!

30 wins and 0 losses!

When the last game was over Stuyvesant Arena was boiling, they completed the unbeaten cross-season and completed an unprecedented 66-game winning streak!

It's also the longest winning streak in New York high school history.

After the game, Zuo Li, who averaged 37.8 points, 16.9 rebounds, 6.8 blocks, 2.8 assists and 1 steal, once again won the season MVP trophy.

After picking up the trophy, Zuo Li announced to the camera: "We have achieved our goals. A year ago, everyone was not optimistic about us, but now, we are the No. 1 High School in New York. We have completed the season without defeat, but this is still not the case. At the end, we're going to win the state championship next!"

"New Jersey! Are you ready!"

Zuo Li roared, finally waiting for this opportunity, Ty Lawson, Oak Hill High School, I'm finally coming back!

"Ready!" The fans shouted loudly. This season has undoubtedly given them countless surprises and touches. Now Stuyvesant High School goes out to see basketball and has to say: "We are still more stubborn in high school!"

Four days later, Stuyvesant ushered in the semi-finals. The opponent was River Valley School. The opponent also reached the state semi-finals for 4 consecutive years. There are also quite powerful players in the team.

However, Stuyvesant has a fully charged Zuo Li.

What is the essence of human singles, Zuo Li will tell you!

In this game, Zuo Li brought his personal strength to the extreme. The opposite team dispatched 5 people to defend Zuo Li in turn, but one of Zuo Li shattered all of them.

With 40 points and 17 rebounds in a single game, Zuo Li led Stuyvesant 88-77 to the state finals!

In this match, their opponent was still Bergen Catholic High School.

"This is the last chance for Bergen Catholicism."
