NBA: The King of Basketball, the more haters I have, the stronger I become!

Chapter 61: Curry: I also want to eat meat with you!

"Ye, congratulations on achieving your first winning streak in your professional career!"

"So we saw today that you rarely matched up against Tyreke on offense, but instead you would call pick-and-rolls to isolate Kevin Martin."

A TNT reporter was the first to ask: "Is it because you think Kevin Martin's defense is worse than Tyreke's? Or is there some other reason?"

Soon, the media present turned their microphones toward Ye Chu.

They were eager to hear what astonishing quotes Ye Chu, who had been so defiant after the last match, would make today.

It's worth noting that Ye Chu's comments after the match were even reposted by many media outlets and used as headlines for trending news.

Then, unsurprisingly, it became a huge hit!

It is foreseeable that every word Ye Chu says now is likely to become the hottest topic of the day!

The biggest highlight of today's game is undoubtedly the continuation of the rivalry between the University of Memphis and Davidson College.

Although Tyreke was Ye Chu's matchup, he hardly defended Ye Chu at all on the defensive end.

Of course, except for that round where I was full of fighting spirit but was then overtaken in one move.

"It feels great to have won consecutive games, but we won't stop here!"

Facing the camera, Ye Chu calmly said, "As for the singles issue you mentioned, it's because Kevin scored a goal at the very beginning of the match and then provoked me."

"Even children understand that you have to pay the price for your mistakes!"

"So I targeted him relentlessly on offense, just to let him know that I'm not someone to be trifled with!"

The tea trees that Ye Chu described so casually sent chills down the spines of the reporters who came to interview him.

They could hardly imagine how Ye Chu could utter such a domineering sentence with such a calm tone.

This kind of expressionless, deadly delivery is simply indescribable.

"Ye, Tyreke Evans told us in a post-match interview that he will eventually close the gap with you, and even complete a dynasty!"

The ESPN reporter asked the final question: "Do you think that with the talent he's showing now, he'll become a formidable rival to you someday?"

"will not!"

Without even thinking, Ye Chu replied directly, "I don't think he will become my formidable rival in the future!"

"My only real rivals are LeBron James and Kobe Bryant!"

After saying this, Ye Chu finished the post-match interview and turned to walk into the players' tunnel.

His last two sentences made the media reporters who came to interview him realize something.

Ye Chu is still the same Ye Chu!

Ye Chu's outstanding performance, scoring 30+ points in two consecutive games and leading his team to two consecutive wins at the start of the season, has made him a sensation not only in Los Angeles.

Throughout the world and even in China, whenever the NBA season is discussed, Ye Chu's name inevitably comes up.

CCTV's NBA Frontline program on Thursday night started with a news banner:

If you still don't know Ye Chu by now, then you're out of touch!

Without a doubt, Ye Chu is the current top star.

At the same time, his continued popularity has prompted various sports brands in the United States to launch another offensive!

Under Armour was the second sneaker manufacturer to proactively contact Ye Chu.

They came here this time with the intention of recruiting Ye Chu and Stephen, the Davidson twins, into their ranks!

Adidas's failure has made Under Armour even better prepared.

They offered Ye Chu a five-year, $8000 million endorsement contract right from the start.

The contract offers an annual salary of nearly 1600 million US dollars, and all of the amount is after tax.

Furthermore, they will create brand new signature sneakers for Ye Chu and Stephen in the near future.

However, even though their prices were much higher than Adidas's, Ye Chu still declined.

Under Armour offers a more comprehensive selection than Adidas, and at a higher price.

But they were still not the offer Ye Chu was waiting for!

"I think we should seriously consider Under Armour's endorsement deal!"

After the Under Armour executives left, Stephen glanced at Ye Chu beside him and said, "To be honest, I'm very tempted by their contract."

You don't want to agree, do you?

Ye Chu was quite interested in Curry's choice, and according to the original timeline, he had signed with Under Armour.

"I'm really torn!"

Curry spoke frankly: "Honestly, I'd rather sign with you than with Under Armour!"

Having followed Ye Chu from the NCAA Championships to now, Curry has come to believe that he is Ye Chu's best and most capable assistant.

Judging from Ye Chu's repeated rejections of Adidas and Under Armour, it's easy to see that he has his own plans for signing sneaker contracts.

Curry is well aware that he is now merely a supporting character to Ye Chu.

If you go out and play solo, you definitely won't get a better offer.

So, he wanted to eat meat with Ye Chu!

"In that case, just watch me do it!"

Ye Chu nodded: "Don't worry, I'll make my choice soon and make sure you earn a hefty endorsement fee!"

Adidas and Under Armour were just workers Ye Chu used to inflate prices and create hype.

The only brand he truly cares about is Nike!

After a day of training

Curry invited Ye Chu to his home as a guest.

The two ate and drank together, and also watched the highlight of the evening's match.

Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder!

In fact, with the acquisition of Shaquille O'Neal this summer, the team suddenly became the strongest contender for this season's championship.

The Oklahoma City Thunder, through the draft over the past few years, have finally assembled their "Big Three".

This match also felt like a clash of titans.

Commentator Smith exclaimed, "The Oklahoma City Thunder will definitely be the biggest obstacle for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the future!"

If the Thunder are given a few years to develop, they will definitely be the most competitive team in the future.

But for now, they're just supporting characters!

In the end, LeBron James delivered a super triple-double with 33 points, 14 rebounds, and 14 assists, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to a narrow 105-100 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Kevin Durant contributed a game-high 40 points.

Russell Westbrook had 17 points, 10 rebounds, and 8 assists, showcasing a well-rounded performance.

Curry was also very impressed by Westbrook's performance, remarking that this was Westbrook, one of last year's "red and blue supercars".

Unlike him, Ye Chu noticed:

In today's game, James Harden, the third overall pick in this year's draft, got his first starting opportunity in his career.

Unfortunately, the bearded man only played 24 minutes, contributing 8 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists.

This third overall pick still has a long way to go with the Oklahoma City Thunder!

After the end of the match

Tnt has announced the schedule for the next match to be broadcast live across the entire world!

May 11, US time

The Oklahoma City Thunder will host the Los Angeles Clippers at home!
