Chapter 152: Dividing Military Authority by Eight - Part 2

"Why?" Rondo was still perplexed.

"If you were Nike's top endorser, and you won a championship as the second-in-command, how should Nike promote you?"

Hansen had stumped Rondo with that question.

He really couldn't picture that.

But the sense of incongruity was very strong.

Just imagine if Pippen was Nike's top endorser, and then under Jordan's leadership, he had won a dynasty...

At that time, it wasn't about whether or not they won the championship; it was about Nike's prestige.

And Nike couldn't just switch endorsers whenever they wanted, given the endorsement contract was signed and in place.

So, as incredible as it seems, it made sense: I don't want a championship if I'm not the FMVP.

This feeling was exactly like when Hansen was negotiating with Ferry back in the day, "Chosen One," that was the shackle around James's neck.

He seemed untouchable, but in reality, every step he took was not his to decide.
