Speed: 65+7
Three-pointer: 70+2

Entering the secondary interface.

Speed: Sprint speed 48*1.1; Lateral movement speed 68*1.1
Three-pointer: Open shot 95; Catch and shoot 40*1.1; Shot after contest 30; Deep three-pointer 0

Catch-and-shoot specialist (Korver) increases movement speed by 10% and catch-and-shoot three-pointer stability by 10%. The system display is very intuitive at this point.

His speed attribute and catch-and-shoot ability are increased as a percentage in the secondary interface, but displayed as an additive bonus in the main interface, indicating that the two are not simply a proportional relationship.

Moreover, he noticed a detail: his base speed was 62 before, but now it's 65.

Not only speed, but his strength, agility, jumping, and even steals have changed by 1-2 points.

The change in weight has also changed his basic attributes!

In other words, his strength improvement is not only from system skills, but also from himself.

The same thing happened after he exchanged for Single Defense before. After his physical fitness improved, the skill's strength was better utilized.

Or, in other words, this system is more about helping him break through racial boundaries and increase his upper limit, but the lower limit still depends on himself.

At this point, Tang Tian has a basic understanding of the system. Now that he has this catch-and-shoot specialist, his next step is to start training catch-and-shoot three-pointers.

Klay Thompson is a ready-made expert in this area, and if he trains with him, he will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Tang Tian added new training items, and Thompson was willing to help him. They were competing, but in a healthy way.

With the help of Prokopiou, after half a month of training, Tang Tian had increased his catch-and-shoot attribute from 40 to 50, reaching the average level of the NCAA.

But practicing further was slower. After all, his basic attributes were low. In the beginning, there was a lot of room for improvement, but later the room for improvement became smaller, so naturally it slowed down.

But training requires perseverance, and he is not in a hurry.

During this time, the Drew League was extremely popular. The addition of Kobe and Harden made the league the most popular league during the offseason.

Tang Tian also tasted the sweetness in the Drew League. Karl's Instagram account followers soared, and many people even started urging him to update videos.

Even before he started a game, he had accumulated a considerable number of fans.

And because of his identity as Tang "Don't Be Low-Key" Tian, the Spurs rookie, even fans who didn't follow his Instagram account would watch and like the videos because of this sense of contrast. He had become a "celebrity" of sorts on social media.

Many new endorsement companies contacted Fagan, from all walks of life, even male health products.

Fagan didn't recommend Tang Tian to accept, and Tang Tian didn't have the idea either. After all, accepting these messy things for some immediate small profits would only become fodder for haters in the future.

However, this reaction also made him more certain of one thing: the NBA was in a lockout, but he couldn't be in a lockout with it. He still had to continue to find ways to increase his popularity.

"Irving also wants to join our training." Before training started this day, Thompson said to Walker and Tang Tian.

During the offseason, superstars like James and Kobe go to the Drew League to find their form. It's not that strange that Irving would seek them out for training.

"I have no objection." Walker regards Irving as a lifelong enemy, and he couldn't be happier to train together.

"Sure, that gives us one more person to pass the ball." Tang Tian said half-jokingly. After all, he had a pretty good impression of Irving.

With Irving joining, in addition to training and the usual three-point games, they could also play two-on-two games from time to time.

Of course, Tang Tian and Walker cooperated perfectly, and as before, they basically abused Irving and Thompson every day.

Thompson's "miserable summer" continued.

However, Irving's dazzling dribbling skills were still top-notch.

It was at this time that Tang Tian remembered something.

Irving, in his previous life, had a nickname called "Uncle Drew." That was in 2012 when Irving shot a Pepsi commercial. In the commercial, he played an old white-bearded man named Drew, who pretended to be a pig to eat a tiger on a streetball court.

The commercial was a hit in the United States at the time and was considered the most successful marketing case.

It's only 2011 now, and Tang Tian can't be polite!

Moreover, he is already a Nike spokesperson, and if he brings it up, Nike will definitely cooperate with him wholeheartedly.

You have to know that the Uncle Drew idea can be made into a series. If it really reaches the height of his previous life, the next renewal contract Nike gives him may skyrocket several times.

With an idea, Tang Tian immediately took action.

He had Fagan contact Nike executives, and after the two sides sat down for a talk, they hit it off immediately.

The most lacking thing in advertising is creativity, and Uncle Drew is definitely a good idea.

With an idea and the support of Nike, the next thing Tang Tian had to do was find a suitable partner.

Walker and Thompson are definitely not suitable. He's shooting this commercial to become the absolute protagonist and accumulate popularity. If they steal the spotlight, then everything would be meaningless, especially Irving, this was originally Irving's idea, so it's even more impossible to find him.

So the person he's looking for must be retired and have acting skills.

Soon, he thought of someone.

Kenny Smith, this Hall of Famer left him his contact information after the UConn-Duke game in the NCAA, saying he could ask him for help if he needed it.

Well, the time has come when he needs it.

Many people only know that Kenny Smith is Barkley's golden partner and best supporting actor, but few people know that Smith was also a very good point guard during his playing days.

He played for a full 10 seasons, averaging 12.8 points and 5.5 assists per game for his career, with a three-point shooting percentage as high as 39.9%. This was a sharpshooter in that era, and he was also very athletic. He participated in the dunk contest, losing to the famous "Human Highlight Film" Dominique Wilkins and finishing as the runner-up.

He spent 6 of his ten professional seasons with the Rockets, and had always been the team's starting point guard, and helped the team achieve two consecutive championships. He is a true Rockets legend.

And compared to Barkley, he also has a better point: his fame is not very high. He is Barkley's supporting actor on TNT, and it is more than appropriate for him to be his supporting actor in the commercial.

Tang Tian called Smith and told him his thoughts.

"Interesting, I won't refuse." Smith was also very interested after listening.

His personality is a bit like Barkley's. They both like to have fun. He is completely eager to try something like dressing up as an old man.

After making an appointment with Smith, the people from Nike were also in place. With the addition of Karl from his own team, the Uncle Drew advertising plan was about to take off.
