NBA: Start with a three-point experience card

Chapter 362 New Contract: $8400 million

July 2022, 7-Later, fans called this day King Advent Day.

It is from this day that the era of Wang Yi's dominion comes!

After he was traded by the team, he had almost nothing.

spurned by the whole world.

Then to conquer the entire NBA and become the master of the NBA.

Ultimately dominated the NBA for 20 years.

The era of Wang Yi is here!

……

After Wang Yi got off the plane, he contacted the Kings, general manager Vlade Divac through the phone call Sister Luo gave her.

Divac voluntarily resigned two years ago because of unfavorable deals.

But in the two years since his resignation, the team still hasn't had any improvement.

So the boss called him back again and became the general manager of the team again.

Divac was once a player of the Kings, averaging 17 points per game at his peak.

When Divac heard that Wang Yi would report to the team so soon, he was very surprised: "Wang, where are you now?"

"On the way to the hotel."

Divac groaned slightly upon hearing this.

Then he said: "Wang, you are staying in the hotel tonight, we will arrange accommodation for you, and you will move here tomorrow. By the way, which hotel are you in? Tell me the room number, and I will meet you with the coach later." one side."

Wang Yi was slightly taken aback.

He has changed many teams before, and every time he arrives at a new team, he takes the initiative to report to the general manager and coach.

Sometimes when the general manager and the coach are busy, he has to wait for several hours to see him.

This is the first time that a general manager said he came to visit him in person.

"No, don't bother to come here, where are you, let's come and find you."

Wang Yi will be even more polite to those who are polite to him.

But Divac was very resolute: "Wang, you just came here, and you are not very familiar with this place, let us come to you, which hotel are you in?"

"Governor Hotel Sacramento, Room 11."

"We'll be there in an hour, if it's convenient for you," Divac said.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Yi and Nicole took a taxi to the Governor Hotel in Sacramento.

This is a [-] star hotel.

Nicole didn't want to book such a hotel.

She herself didn't care, for the interview she even lived in the cheapest motel.

He wanted to book the best hotel for Wang Yi.

But Wang Yi refused.

The Governor Hotel Sacramento is only a 15-minute drive from the airport.

Wang Yi was tired after flying for more than 5 hours. He wanted to rest as soon as possible.

When she came to the hotel room, Nicole said she still had something to do, so she left early.

Wang Yi took a shower and lay on the bed.

Eyes fixed on the ceiling.

He was thinking about the past history of the Kings.

There are some miserable teams in the NBA, but the Kings are one of the worst.

After they won their only championship in 1951, they never went to the finals in the next 70 years.

And as of this year, it has not been able to make the playoffs for 16 years, which is the most consecutive failure to make the playoffs in the league.

It can be said that the Kings are a super bad team.

Because it is a small market team, they have never recruited any big-name players.

Last season, four teams in the league lost money.

Among them, the Kings lost the most money.

Maybe it's because the Kings don't have a glorious history and few people pay attention.

So even their management seems to have given up and has always been Buddhist.

Every summer, the free market is surging.

Other teams are busy trading, strengthening, and cleaning up junk contracts.

The Kings basically want nothing.

It's like an eminent monk who has practiced for many years.

It is such a team, but this year they sent away their star Fox in exchange for Wang Yi.

This is something that many people did not expect.

……

Wang Yi thought a lot.

This team is currently a big quagmire.

But he still doesn't believe in this evil.

Even if it is mud, he has to shape it.

They even molded it into a statue and carved it into the highest Leshan Giant Buddha in the world!

The more Wang Yi thought about it, the more excited he became.

Both fists could not help but clenched tightly.

More than an hour later, the doorbell of Wang Yi's room rang.

When he opened the door, he saw three people standing outside the door.

General Manager Divac;

Coach Luke Walton;

There was also a short Asian man who looked to be around 60 or [-] years old.

Although he is not tall and looks a little thin, he feels very strong. .

Wang Yi has a little impression of this person.

He is an Indian, but now he has become an American citizen.

Vivek Ranadive, IT mogul.

He is the big boss of the Kings.

Wang Yi was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the team owner would come out in person.

You know, in the NBA, each of those bosses is rich and powerful.

Which one is not a billionaire?
Although many of those players are multi-millionaires, these bosses still look down on these players.

In the eyes of most bosses, players are just tools for them to make money.

Therefore, when a general player comes to a new team, the boss will basically not greet him.

Only big-name stars like James and Durant will have bosses to greet them.

Wang Yi thinks that the current self has not reached that level.

Unexpectedly, Boss King came in person.

"Hello, Wang, I'm very glad that you can join us. Your arrival will make people full of hope for the new season."

Ranadive smiled and held out his hand as he spoke.

Wang Yi also extended his hand politely: "Hi, I didn't expect you to come here in person."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Ranadive laughed: "As the hope of our rise, of course I will come to greet you in person. If you had said earlier, I would have made a special trip to pick you up at the airport."

Next, Wang Yi shook hands with general manager Divac and coach Walton.

Entering the room, the three first expressed their sincere welcome to Wang Yi's arrival.

Next, general manager Divac told Wang Yi about the construction intention of the Kings in the next two to three years.

"In the past three years, we will use you as the core to build a team that can hit the playoffs."

And emphatically emphasized to Wang Yi: "Although the contract you signed with the Lakers is 4000 million U.S. dollars for two years, in order to show respect for you, we are willing to negotiate with you to increase the original contract by 800 million U.S. dollars per year. You get a max salary of over $2800 million a year."

After hearing this, Wang Yi was both surprised and grateful.

According to NBA rules, after a player is traded to another team, his contract will not change.

Bosses in small ball markets are generally based on the principle of saving what they can, and will not pay players extra wages.

Unexpectedly, the boss of the king was willing to break through the previous contract and give himself a maximum salary.

Divac went on to say: "And we are willing to change the two-year contract to three-year-in fact, we originally wanted to sign a five-year contract with you at one time, but based on the principle of considering you, after three years, you just reached With 6 years of playing experience, you can get 30% of the salary cap at that time. In order to maximize your interests, we decided to only sign with you for three years. After three years, we will renew your contract with 30% of the salary cap. salary."

"So the total amount of the contract we're giving you right now is about $3 million over three years."

"..."

After Divac finished speaking, Wang Yi was a little dazed.

He looked at his boss Ranadive in disbelief.

The boss nodded to Wang Yi with a smile on his face, expressing his confirmation.

Wang Yi was even more unbelievable.

Will the capitalists put themselves in the shoes of the players?
This is impossible!

Impossible.

The world is so crazy that mice are going to be bridesmaids for cats.
