NBA beast center

What Shou Ye is hesitating now is whether to accept a shorter contract, and then go for a bigger one.For this reason, he consulted his agent Bill Duffy. The agent means that both short-term contracts and long-term contracts have advantages and disadvantages. Short-term contracts are risky, but they can get bigger contracts; If you play too well during the contract period, you will suffer a bit.

Bill Duffy also reminded Shouye that a short contract is equivalent to a contract year, which puts a lot of pressure on himself and if the team does not give too much ball rights and playing time, it is easy to not play good data and not Big Easy is part of the team's long-term plans.If the contract gap is not big, he suggested that a long-term contract is more appropriate.

Shou Ye knew that no matter how he signed the contract, he would pay off his debts and stand upright.This is critical, and this is one of his original intentions for entering the NBA.

I finally don't owe anyone any more money, and I'm going to be myself from now on!

On June 6, Shou Ye set up a bureau and invited Concubine Han and Wu Daqiang to have dinner in a private room of a high-end restaurant in San Francisco.Wu Daqiang just returned from Sacramento on the 30th.

Looking at the high-end dishes, Wu Daqiang joked: "Mr. Shou, you spend so much money, we are a little bit embarrassed!"

Shou Ye smiled and said: "French foie gras can't stop your mouth, I think I will give you duck liver in the future."

Wu Daqiang cut a piece of foie gras and put it in his mouth, and then he looked very enjoying: "I still like to eat foie gras, and I like the feeling of foie gras melting in my mouth, it's so delicious!"

Concubine Han said: "Brother Daqiang, the big man invited us to dinner to help him sign the new contract as a consultant, don't just focus on eating!"

Wu Daqiang looked at Concubine Han with deep meaning, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "I said Concubine, since you were with Brother Beast, why did you treat me as an outsider? I remember that we were both your friends back then." Brother!"

Concubine Han blushed, and quickly explained: "I still regard you as my brother, it's not as exaggerated as you said!"

Shou Ye said, "Daqiang, stop joking about the concubine and talk about business. Do you have any suggestions for the quotation I sent to your email?"

When Shou Ye got to the point, Wu Daqiang and Concubine Han became serious.

Wu Daqiang said: "I usually pay a lot of attention to the NBA. I may not be as professional as Mr. Duffy, but from the perspective of a fan, the principle is to give priority to big contracts. As for future ball rights and the like, these are not very important. Sure, what your team wants to promise, then tell me in the form of a contract."

Shou Ye nodded: "I actually don't like this way of 'painting cakes'. I don't want to give money but I want you to pay."

Han Fei said: "I mean, when we consider the contract, should we take the situation of the city where the team is located into consideration. For example, in these quotations, Cleveland is a small city, while Houston and Dallas are big cities."

"Well, city factors should also be considered." Shou Ye nodded and said.

Several people shared their thoughts again, and Shou Ye listened carefully for reference.He felt that sometimes this kind of communication was very good. Although Wu Daqiang and Han Fei were not professionals, they could put forward some suggestions that caught his eye.

On July 7, the NBA free agent market officially opened.

There are fewer big fish this year, so many teams have set their sights on the trading market, and some have even set their sights on the middle of the season.

Shou Ye is not a big fish, but it is also a medium fish.His whereabouts are also concerned by many people.

Shou Ye has basically decided where he will go, but the details of the contract still need to be negotiated between agent Bill Duffy and the team he intends to sign.

Shou Ye also told Concubine Han and Wu Daqiang the news.

Concubine Han was a little puzzled, and asked Shou Ye, "Have you really decided to go to Timberwolves?"

Shou Ye nodded: "Basically it's decided."

Concubine Han continued to ask: "The Timberwolves are not a strong team, and Minneapolis is not a big city either!"

Shou Ye carefully explained to Concubine Han: "I know what you said, I just want to tell you what I think. The Timberwolves are the only team that offers me tens of millions of annual salary. I need it very much now." Money, I never deny this. The biggest purpose of my playing is not to realize the basketball dream, but to make money to pay off debts and live a good life. I don’t care so much whether Minneapolis is a big city or not. Some people dislike it It’s cold, but I’m not afraid of it. Being poor is more terrifying than being cold. I’m not a superstar, so business in a big city doesn’t have much to do with me. It doesn’t matter if the Timberwolves are a strong team or not. A weak team also has an advantage, especially the potential for improvement. big."

Concubine Han was convinced that Shou Ye was far more realistic and objective than she thought. He had considered very comprehensively and did not make a decision on the spur of the moment.

"Big man, I support any decision you make! I think your decision must have been carefully considered." Concubine Han said very seriously.

Shou Ye is very grateful to Concubine Han for her support.He takes her opinion very seriously. If she strongly disagrees with him going to the Timberwolves, he probably won't choose to go.He is inclined to go to the Timberwolves, but it is not necessary not to go here.

Glad that Concubine Han supported him, Shou Ye became more firm in her decision.

Bill Duffy was very efficient. He negotiated with the Timberwolves and then informed Shou Ye of the results of the negotiations.

"Mr. Shou, I have negotiated with the Timberwolves. They value you very much and are willing to make room for you in order to get you. They are also willing to change the previous team option to a player option. As for the total amount of the contract, what they mean is I don’t want to add any more.”

This is good news for Shou Ye. His purpose is not to increase the contract price. In fact, the Timberwolves’ contract is already the highest among the 8 offers. It is unlikely that they will increase it again, because this Involved in the team's total salary.

His purpose is the player option. With this option, his flexibility in the last season has increased.

Shou Ye has basically decided to sign with the Timberwolves. He is very happy because he is about to get a 4-year contract with a total value of 4400 million US dollars!
You must know that this was in 2012, when the salary cap did not rise.He remembered that in his previous life, Curry only signed a contract of about the same size because of injuries.

So Shou Ye's contract is not small, with an average salary of more than 1000 million US dollars!
Shou Ye feels like a dream. Three years ago, he was just a newcomer with a non-guaranteed contract, but now he has a fully guaranteed contract of tens of millions!
He is about to achieve financial freedom, and Shou Ye now feels very confident in his heart.
