Rebirth of Hayes Cyclone

Chapter 27 [Holding a Party, Celebrating a New Home]

Hayes went shopping alone and bought a lot of things.

In the evening, he will face the biggest challenge since his rebirth.

He wants to face James?Howard?Kobe?

Of course not, although the above few are powerful, they will not scare him.

What scares him is - to meet "family" in the new villa.

The last time Hayes visited the house with Taylor-Swift, his father Charles was very pleased.After paying the down payment, the Hayes family moved to Houston yesterday.

He used to stay in Houston on the grounds of practicing, but now his family is in Houston. It would be unreasonable if he didn’t go home often in the same city.

Compared with the past, his personality has changed drastically.He was afraid of revealing any flaws and disappointing his family.Just hope it doesn't talk too much about his childhood, those memories are too vague.

Parents also informed him that they hoped that he could take Taylor Swift home with him.

Hayes' mother Tracy gave birth to him at the age of 18. The brave mother didn't think there was anything wrong with Taylor being 17 years old. (囧... His mother's name is so similar to McGrady? What's the matter? His father also has the same name as Barkley... Obviously this is why Hai Ye is so powerful.)
There was a lot of scandal outside, and the family members thought that Hayes had found a celebrity girlfriend, but in fact, the two of them were not so good.Taylor has a job and went out to participate in activities, avoiding the embarrassment of parents and daughter-in-law.

Even if Taylor was free and willing to go, Hayes didn't want to take her home.He himself was very nervous about meeting his family, and that was just adding to the chaos.

What should come will always come, you can't always escape, it's okay... Hayes washed his face and thought in the mirror.

It's nothing to blame, the family members who have lived together for so many years must be able to see the flaws, right?Especially my brother with autism...has a headache.In case the family members were suspicious, they said they couldn't remember many things when they were beaten by O'Neill?Yes, damn O'Neill.

Hayes thought of a countermeasure, put a lot of gifts for his family into the car, and prepared to set off.

It's too grand to do so.However, only by doing so can he feel more comfortable.

For these family members, he always has some guilt in his heart. Although he maintains the image and memory of Hayes in the past, the new personality has the upper hand, and he always feels as if he owes someone a son.

He drove the old Chevrolet sedan, desperately recalling the way he used to speak, all the way to the villa.

10 minutes later, the car stopped in front of the new villa.

"It's finally here, calm down! Calm down! This is your home, you must be natural, all you need is... a chicken in your left hand, a duck in your right hand, and a box of wine in your hand, often go home and have a look, go home Look, no problem." Hayes stood at the door, took a deep breath, and rang the doorbell.Does this seem calm?
After the doorbell rang, Hayes got emotional.

"Which one?" A female voice came from the gate.

"It's me, Chuck." Hayes laughed.He guessed that the voice just now might be his sister.I don't know if it's appropriate to speak in such a stiff tone.

The door opened.Hayes found the house completely dark.

"Why don't you turn on the light?" Hayes asked strangely.

Then the lights came on.

"Surprise!" The hall was full of people of all skin colors shouting together.

Hayes put down the drink and stood in the doorway, transfixed.

What is this celebrating?Is it my birthday today?When is my birthday?

"Hello, Chuck Hayes. You played beautifully in the last game. I'm your neighbor James Green. Can you sign an autograph for me later?" A thin white man shook hands with Hayes and said.

"Of course. Haha, I have a question, isn't today my birthday?" Hayes smiled wryly.

"Haha, you're so interesting." James Bond smiled while still holding Hayes' hand.

"I... have a few words with my father first. I'm sorry." Hayes pulled out his hand in embarrassment, walked up to his father Charles, and asked, "Dad, this is what happened. There are so many people at home. People? What is this celebrating?"

Charles was in a good mood, smiled and said to Hayes: "These are our neighbors. You and Taylor went to see the house together in the newspaper, and everyone knows that we are going to move here. When we came yesterday, all the neighbors came Say hello, they are very warm, I talked it over with your mom and decided to have a house party, let everyone come together and celebrate your first triple double. Son, you are so great, they all call you a hero now ...Where's Taylor? Why isn't she here?"

"Hehe...she has something to do, work. We are really just friends, the news is too exaggerated." Hayes was a little dizzy, the Americans were really too enthusiastic.

"Why can't you see me, kid?" said a familiar voice.

I saw a giant standing up on the sofa next to it. It turned out that Yao Ming and his parents also came.Hayes was too excited just now, and his vision was severely narrowed.

"Haha, brother Ming is here too, as well as uncles and aunts. Welcome, so I was the only one kept in the dark. No wonder you asked me to come back at night." Hayes laughed.Today, with so many people, he felt much more relaxed.In this way, you don't have to worry about being spotted by your family members.

"Brother." A small black man walked up to Hayes and called out kindly, with a faint light in his eyes.

"Hi Toba, long time no see. How are you?" Hayes immediately gave his "brother" a warm hug.

His "brother" was stunned on the spot.

"Brother, stop messing around. Toba can't transfer schools, and he's still in high school in Modesto." A black girl who believed in Hayes' appearance said.

"So...ang?" Hayes asked.He knew it was his sister Jessica who was speaking now.Who is he hugging?

"This is my boyfriend Harry, we're getting married, so I brought him," Jessica said.

"Nice meeting, man. You're my idol!" Harry said.

Hayes nearly threw him out.

what the hell!You kid is sick, the first time we meet is so affectionate?Why do all black people look about the same?Does this make me recognize it?
This is a visual problem. In the eyes of foreigners, most Chinese people also look the same.

Hayes was thinking about his own loopholes, a tall and fat woman with braids and a hairstyle similar to Sprewell walked towards him, hugged him in her arms, and looked at him He kissed him and said with a smile, "Chuck, my great son, he has become stronger."

Hayes kept blinking and said with a smile, "Mom... oh oh oh...it's so nice to see you."

God, it was so hard, it strangled me to death. It is logical that this tonnage should be O'Neill's mother?The gap between the teeth is so big, it looks like a tooth has fallen out... Auntie, how many melon seeds do you usually eat to make it like this?You are actually the holder of the Guinness World Record for Eating Melon Seeds, right?Hayes vomited in his heart and almost spit out his lungs, and he had to pretend to be very happy on the surface.

Hayes chatted with his mother Tracy for a while, and gradually calmed down.Women may be ugly or handsome, but they all have the same love for their sons.

Hayes said a few polite words to the guests, like eating, drinking and having fun, and then took a gift and went upstairs alone to find Thaddeus, his autistic brother.

That's what worries Hayes the most.

He has never communicated with people with inferiority complex, and he doesn't know how his changes will affect Thaddeus.For this meeting, he thought about Hayes' previous practice countless times, watched "Rain Man" (Oscar Best Picture) three times, and found many ways to communicate with autistic patients on the Internet.

None of the family tried hard to find a cure for Thaddeus, because they were poor. When Thaddeus was young, they didn't actively take him to see any famous doctor, but just groped and communicated with him. The best of all is Hayes.

He pushed open the door lightly, and saw Thaddeus sitting on the bed with dull eyes.

"Hi, I'm here." Hayes asked with a smile, sitting on the edge of the bed, and took out the gift for Thaddeus from the bag he brought, including several toys.

He first took out a car that would run when he pulled it, demonstrated it for a while, and then stuffed it into Thaddeus' hands, but Thaddeus threw it away immediately; then he took out another car that opened his mouth when he spoke to it The bear, Thaddeus didn't even look at it; followed by a new 05 version of Transformers, Thaddeus was still not interested.

Hayes couldn't help turning his head and rolling his eyes.

Hayes in the previous life didn't tell the truth.When the reporter interviewed him, he said that Thaddeus was his best friend, and he only listened to what he said. Now he has searched through his past memories, but he has not found any examples of Thaddeus being "obedient". "The situation is still serious, this is called a good friend?Are you strangers at all?

I only knew that Thaddeus liked red things, so Hayes took out a red balloon, blew it up, and threw it at Thaddeus, this time Thaddeus caught it and giggled and tossed the balloon back to Hayes.

This is progress.

Hayes cheered up, happier than winning the ball.

He laughed?It seems that none of the previous Hayes made Thaddeus laugh like this. Could it be that I did better?
After playing with balloons for a while, Hayes pulled out another shiny bunny toy.

This toy is made in China. As long as the battery is installed and the button is pressed, the rabbit can move. It rhythmically holds a plastic scythe and makes smart mowing movements, which is quite magical. (Fantastic claw)

However, Hayes didn't take this rabbit out to make it perform mowing. Thaddeus likes shiny things. After removing the scythe, he slowly pressed the rabbit against Taotao's throat, and when he didn't want to Take it away.

Before being reborn, Hayes often did this. It is said that pressing the throat with something can allow autistic patients to experience the feeling of throat vibration, and stimulate him to gradually learn to vocalize... He wants to continue his previous work.

Half an hour later, Hayes and Thaddeus said goodbye, left the room, and closed the door behind them.I feel more tired than playing a game.

He was going to talk to his parents and ask them to find time to take Thaddeus to see the best doctor in Houston, and he didn't need to worry about money.He hopes that his younger brother can properly improve his communication and understanding skills. He is too busy to play games and practice, so it is impossible to spend too much time on this.

After going downstairs, Hayes found Yao Ming.Yao Ming now hid in a quiet place - next to the toilet.

"Hey, Brother Ming, why did you come here?"

"Quiet for a while, you're not here, the fans are all talking to me, I'm tired." Yao Ming spoke Chinese and laughed.

"Dawson came to me today." Hayes also changed to Chinese.

"Are they looking for you to renew the contract? I guess they should take action." Yao Ming smiled and said, "What did you say?"

"He asked me if I could accept the full middle class. I refused and wanted to wait until the end of the season to see. I also discussed this with Jeff (Van Gundy). He also suggested that I wait until the end of the season." Hayes Leaning against the wall, he said.

"You seem very tired?" Yao Ming laughed.

"A little bit, my younger brother has an inferiority complex. Apart from playing well, what I hope most is for him to become a normal person." Hayes said.

"You entered the NBA through a non-draft, and you can't help it with a low salary for the past two years. However, as soon as next year, you will become a completely free agent, which will actually become your advantage. If you can maintain your current level, there will definitely be The team offered you a big contract to recruit you, and when the time comes, are you going to leave?" Yao Ming said with a wry smile.

"I like this place very much, and I will try my best to stay in the Rockets. Don't think too much, as long as the team can give me a satisfactory contract in the future." Hayes smiled at Yao Ming when he saw his father waving to him not far away. : "I'll go over to talk first. Come to me when you have enough rest."

Yao Ming let out a cry, feeling a little headache.Hayes is a rare good player and good teammate. If he leaves, the Rockets' strength will be greatly damaged.He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Why didn't Hayes even be selected as a second-round rookie?If it is the second round, there are also Arenas clauses that can restrict him, at least allowing him to play in the Rockets for one more year.

Hayes entered the NBA undrafted and received a two-year minimum salary.
The contracts signed by NBA players are bound by terms. Rookies have rookie contracts. Generally, first-round rookies have 4 years, with an annual salary ranging from 150 million to 300 million. It ranges from 500 to 2 million; non-rookies generally have a basic salary, ranging from 75 to 110 million, and usually sign for one year.

When a player's contract expires, he can sign a second contract.Players who renew their contracts can sign up to 6 years, while players from other teams can only sign up to 5 years.The first round of the second contract is different from the second round players. Generally, the first round players will be higher than the second round players.Because NBA salaries increase progressively by a percentage, the first contract of a first-round player is generally longer than that of a second-round player, so his starting salary base is high, and his total salary is of course high.

The "Arenas Clause" was brought by the league for Arenas' last contract, and Boozer, both of them were second-round rookies, but after the two-year contract expired, they chose not to renew with their old club Instead of signing a contract, they jumped out of the contract to ask for a high salary, which severely damaged the interests of the original team.

The Arenas clause is for second-round picks who only signed two-year rookie contracts.

Most of the second-round rookies will only sign a two-year rookie contract with the team that selected him, so after the end of the rookie contract, he is only eligible for Early Bird, not Bird.

The early bird clause stipulates that for a player who has played for the same team for all or part of the season in the past two years (including transfers due to team transactions), the team can use the player for the last time after he becomes a free agent. The higher salary of 175% of the annual salary and the average player salary in the league (that is, the middle class) will renew the contract.

This also means that if the home team's total salary is above the salary cap, at most it can only provide a mid-level contract for the second-round rookie after the end of the two-year rookie contract.

So there is a problem: when other teams offer the player an invitation contract that exceeds the middle class (the two-year rookie contract will have restricted free agency conditions), the home team will not be able to follow up.

In order to protect the rights and interests of the home team, the tragedy of "the Warriors can only watch Arenas accept the invitation contract offered by the Wizards above the middle class and fly away" will no longer occur, and the Arenas clause is introduced.

The Arenas clause stipulates that other teams can only offer contracts lower than the middle class for second-round rookies after the end of the two-year rookie contract.That is, other teams cannot offer higher contracts to such players than the home team's contract.

Rookies who have signed a three-year rookie contract and have Bird qualifications after the contract ends are not included.

Hayes, who entered the NBA as a non-draft, of course also has Bird qualifications, is not listed here.Now Hayes has rejected the middle class, which means that the team can only bleed a lot if they want to sign him, and they must pay a luxury tax.

At this time, Yao Ming suspected that Hayes would definitely leave for the big contract, but he was unwilling to explain to him now.

If Hayes is gone, and McGrady is often injured, maybe he will stay away from the championship in his life.Yao Ming didn't want Hayes to leave, so he suddenly had an idea and wanted to find time to talk to McGrady.

Lord Hai didn't want to leave, and Yao Ming also wanted him to stay.What is Yao Ming's inspiration?
