basketball never sleeps

Chapter 51 Just Say You Want It!

The Pistons held a grand championship celebration, but Mo Wen was not in the parade.

Two days after winning the championship, Mo Wen participated in two championship parties organized by Da Ben and Billups, and bid farewell to them.

On the team, Human has already submitted a trade application with Dumars for him.

Dumars just thanked Mo Wen for his dedication to the Pistons over the past year, and did not retain Mo Wen. The conflict caused by misunderstanding can be bridged, but most of the problems on the table cannot be resolved.

What's more, long before Mo Wen submitted the trade application, Larry Brown had already informed him to trade Mo Wen away as soon as possible. The words were so fierce that Dumars had never seen it before. He even forced him to resign at one time, which made Dumars understand this. How big is the contradiction between the two.

Iverson was the last person hated by Larry Brown so much.

The NBA trading open day began after the finals. The Pistons also put Mo Wen on the shelf after Human sent the application, and no longer said no to the inquirer.

The managers of those teams ran over like sharks that smelled blood.

But what made Dumars quite a headache was that he didn't see a few sincere offers.

In his opinion, the value of Mo Wen's trade should definitely not be lower than an All-Star's offer. Isn't it easy for a player who can score 20 points in 15 minutes of playing in the playoffs to put 20+ in a weak team?
Although the Pistons only have one year left on his contract, referring to Rasheed's offer, Mo Wen should be worth at least two top draft picks, plus a second-round pick or an equivalent player.

But most of the teams that offered him an offer killed the bottom line of a first-round pick, and the rest were either given to players or two more second-round picks, just like beggars.

Mo Wen is not the only thing that bothers him. After the Pistons won the championship, the players in the team have become popular. Okur, Mike James, whose contract expired, clearly rejected the Pistons' intention to renew, Milicic, Collins and Campbell, who are still under contract, have also submitted trade applications for him. He still needs to negotiate about Rasheed's contract extension. He is about to explode before being happy for two days after the finals.

Mo Wen in the Detroit Gym has already entered the mode of ironing. After two days of rest, he didn't think about going back to China.Before the start of the Olympics, the Chinese team had to go to the NBA Long Beach Summer League to train, and there was only half a month left, so he was too lazy to fly back and forth.

After discussing with Harris, he temporarily stayed in Detroit, waiting to join the Chinese team in Long Beach.

"Hey Mo, look who I brought you, surprise!"

In the gym, Xiuman appeared behind Mo Wen with a beautiful big horse.

"Hey, Steve... uh, what is this, is this?"

What caught the eye was an angel's face bag, 1.2 meters long legs, and an enchanting figure. At a glance, she didn't know which ugly girl to look for.

This kind of surprise?It's ok buddy, unexpectedly, unexpectedly, you Human with thick eyebrows and big eyes actually started a pimp business!
Mo Wen looked at the girl up and down, but it was a little strange that although the girl had a big layout, she didn't open it.The exposed lower abdomen can see the muscle lines even in a relaxed state, and the sexy "ham" can feel full of dry goods even through yoga pants.

Her eyes were also very different from the fully tamed and developed wild horses he saw in the San Fernando Valley in his previous life. It was a slightly disgusted, untamed, and aggressive look.

"Steve, this is what you said... Chinese gentleman? Huh."

As soon as the girl opened her mouth and heard that carefree and angry voice, Mo Wen knew that he had misunderstood something.

"Oh, Kelly, you promised me, watch your tone."

Human sighed, and then explained to Mo Wen.

"Mo, her name is Catherine Johnson, you can also call her Kelly, she is the fitness trainer, masseuse and nutritionist that John and I found for you, don't look at her young, but she is a master's student in Biokinetics at Columbia University , she has obtained the registered dietitian qualification and NSCA certification, so you don't have to doubt her professional ability."

Human also casually handed Mo Wen a not-so-thin resume, with three or four certificates on it, and some dense records of achievements that he couldn't understand.

"Ah, so that's how it is. Hello, Kaili." Mo Wen stretched out his hand in embarrassment. He was so excited for nothing.

Catherine shook hands with Mo Wen not very enthusiastically, took out an agreement from her bag, and placed it in front of Mo Wen.

"Hello, Mo, I'm still more used to being called Catherine, and I don't want to go around in circles anymore. Since I have a certain relationship with Steve and John, I think this contract should be between you and me. Talk in person..."

Before Mo Wen could react, this big girl broke up with Mo Wen about a bunch of issues about her employment contract, and Mo Wen was taken aback for a while, as if she had never considered the issue of Mo Wen not hiring her.

And when he glanced at the big girl's "pattern", the big girl actually stared at his "pattern" provocatively.

hiss--

Mo Wen didn't agree immediately, but just took advantage of going to the bathroom to grab Xiuman and ask him.

"Who are you, sisters? How do I feel that you have caused me trouble?"

This kind of temper, this kind of attitude towards employers, is a bit outrageous in Mao Xiongguo, which is known for its boldness. Personal education is a service industry everywhere. It's not that they are nice, but these sisters are nice, they look like they are here to be his big sister.

Human touched his nose in embarrassment, and said something that he didn't mention just now. Catherine is a distant cousin of him and John. Because she just broke up with her lesbian girlfriend a while ago, she looks a little grumpy now. , it's usually not like this... At most, it has a little personality?
But because of the topic selection of her master's thesis, she had to find an athlete to cooperate with, and then she found him.

Graduated from Columbia University, with a bunch of certificates in his hand, and beautiful, but there is a "little bit" in his personality. After weighing it up, Human thought of recommending it to Mo Wen.

"I think you can think about it. Her asking price is still reasonable. Although she has a bad personality, it is not impossible to attack. It is not a solution for you to go to parties alone all the time. In fact, I think you athletes want It's better to have a regular partner, after all, the lessons learned by magicians are there."

"Hmm... um? Wait, do you want to hear what you just said?"

After doing this for a long time, you kid is still a pimp, you bastard who sells girls for glory, I am!

"Don't look at me like that. From your manager's point of view, this Catherine is definitely much safer than the Catherine you met before."

"Catherine in California is not old enough. I consulted a lawyer. Your foreigner status does not apply to the Romeo and Juliet regulations (childhood exemption clause: the age difference is allowed to be within five years, and both parties are over 14 years old. behavior), so in order to keep me from losing my job, and for your safety, so—”

Human spread his hands. Their agent didn't care about this matter before, but this year Kobe spent 500 million to settle the woman. The energy and money spent and the losses caused are countless. People in the entire industry They all started to pay attention to this aspect.

"How do you know, no, what are you thinking, I just regard that Catherine as my friend's sister, and I don't have any... thoughts about that."

"Do you believe what you say? T800 called the CAA director above me and told me to take care of you. Don't mess around. Although you are the most disciplined player I have ever seen, you are a man first!"

Xiuman waved his hand, saying that it's better not to do this, everyone is a man, who doesn't know who, don't pretend.

Mo Wen is so helpless, why is it that no one believes in being a good person when you tell the truth these days?

—Well, he didn't believe it himself.

The young Muai is human nature.

I did spend a lot of time chatting with that chick on ICQ two nights ago.

But then you Human can't do that either, what I want is a fitness trainer and masseur who can save me energy and devote myself to training with peace of mind, realizing my potential.

What have you got me for, a shrew?It's still called Catherine, Shakespeare's "The Training of the Shrew", right?
"Just say whether you want it or not, and tell you that she hasn't had a boyfriend since she was a child!"

"Uh, what did she say about her weekly salary?"

……

The transfer market is very lively every year, but this year, because of a big fish entering the water, the transfer market, which was not originally calm, was completely blown up.

In order to keep Kobe, who has more potential, the Lakers offered a seven-year 7 million contract, and at the same time abandoned the Zen master who had conflicts with Kobe.

Almost instantly, the calls of the Lakers management, O'Neal and his agent were all off the hook.

Of the 30 teams in the entire league (the Bobcats have announced their entry), 25 teams have expressed their intention to buy O'Neal.

Out of final respect for O'Neal, the Lakers gave O'Neal the right to choose his next home.

O'Neal gave the choice range of five teams: Mavericks, Raptors, Nets, Pacers, Heat.

Mavericks owner Cuban and O'Neal have a good personal relationship. He had contacted Cuban to trade himself before. Cuban was willing to send away everyone in the Mavericks for O'Neal—except Nowitzki, but the Lakers were unwilling to accept any A trade proposal from Dallas that didn't include the German.

New Jersey is O'Neal's hometown, and the Nets are also willing to let the Lakers pick anyone - except Kidd.

Big Bird in the Pacers team discussed with Carlisle and directly rejected the offer, and went all out to chase another big fish-McGrady.

As for the Raptors-they only have Carter, but the Lakers already have Kobe. Although the Raptors management jumped up and down to join in the fun, in the end it was just a hot face and a cold ass.

Because O'Neal's contract is too big, and everyone is unwilling to pay the core, O'Neal once became an existence with a price but no market. During this period, the Lakers also inquired about the Cavaliers——If you want O'Neal, don't want 998, don't want 888, give LeBron , the shark brought home.

Cavaliers management: Get out!
Pat Riley, who was negotiating business with the Pistons, finally sat at the Lakers' negotiating table.

They took a fancy to the "left-handed magician" Odom who had just signed a long-term contract with the Heat, and then began negotiations to balance the contract.

"Butler, O'Neal must have Butler on his trade list!"

Caron Butler, who averaged 15+5 per game in his rookie season, is a shooting small forward who gets along well with Kobe and is also one of Kupchak's goals for this trip.

Pat Riley frowned. Butler, who was killed by the Lakers, had already been promised to the Pistons. Is he going to give up another promising star for O'Neal?
Solemnly declare: The female supporting role who will not have many roles in the future, has no emotional entanglements, no messy things that affect basketball, does not involve the main line, and is only arranged for brothers who want to eat meat. If you don't like it, just complain.

　There are not many female supporting roles in the future, if you don’t like it, I will write less later
