You'd better wrap me

Chapter 248 Crazy off-season

After the awards ceremony, the whole team returned to the locker room to smoke champagne and smoke cigars. Su Yang was besieged by everyone.

When he left the locker room, Su Yang took out the [-] US dollars specially prepared in advance, and gave it to the cleaning uncles and aunts as compensation.With that kind of operation, Sterling said that he was too extravagant to actually reward his job.

Too lazy to argue, Su Yang led the whole team straight to Chuangpu's golf base, listening to music, drinking and dancing on the lawn, lying down and resting when he was tired from playing. To the airport, head straight to Los Angeles.

The plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport at noon, and when I walked out of the passage, I saw thousands of fans coming to receive it.

After a short rest, a party was held at Sterling's private manor villa in the evening. Many celebrities in Los Angeles were present. Su Yang took the opportunity to invite Leonardo and others to register on Twitter, and posted it to the account on the spot, successfully earning a fortune. Big wave traffic.

After the party is over, we have a day off, another championship celebration parade, and the last stop is the YouTube Center.The host and well-known boat fan Billy Crystal asked Su Yang's soul: "Su, will we have three consecutive championships next year? Can you guarantee it?"

Hearing those words and looking at more than 9000 fans in the audience, many thoughts flashed through Su Yang's mind.

What is Milicic's contract extension in advance, and if so, how much contract is he going to give? Similarly, whether Kaman's contract is being renewed in advance, and how much contract is he going to give to the shareholder renewal contract; the basic salary contracts of Wilkins and Matt Barnes have been completed. When the deadline expires, do you need to keep the two people, and if you stay, how much contract do you plan to give? If the veteran Payton plays for another year, does he need to find a backup point guard...

The team still has a lot of things to deal with.

I don't have to worry about it myself, but in order to strive for the three consecutive championships, I must take care of it. It is not yet known how the prospects will be.

Not to mention that the media wearing McGrady will jump out of the contract and try to cut their salary to join the Lakers to form a super Big Three lineup.

To be honest, I'm really not sure.

But the atmosphere of the championship parade was already at the point, and the arrow had to be fired, and he said decisively: "Of course! I assure you all, we will win the championship next year, we will achieve three consecutive championships, and we will create a new dynasty in Los Angeles! "

The voice flew out, and the audience cheered.

Television stations such as ESPN and TNT took screenshots to broadcast the news, and many fans who participated in the championship parade also uploaded the videos to YouTube. Su Yang’s promise quickly spread throughout the United States and even the world, and heated discussions followed. .

Commentators and the media have a lot to say.

Su Yang didn't look at all, and took Alba and his three daughters to Panama for vacation. Every morning, he held a morning meeting to check the various progress of YouTube and Twitter, and communicated with Ivanka about the construction of the new base by the way. It took a full four days Just returned to Los Angeles.

On the 23rd, normal office work and training will resume.

Arrived at the Clippers base at eight o'clock in the morning to discuss the draft.In the office, Olshey said: "I have already heard the news that the Lakers are going to select your AAU teammate Jordan Farmar in the first round, but most likely it will be part of the trade, and it is very likely that they will be sent to the Kings for Artest. The matching chips may be the first-round picks in 11 and 13..."

Su Yang clicked his tongue when he heard the words, thinking that the Lakers are so ruthless. In order to win the championship, they will directly suppress all the future, and according to the rules, they will send out draft picks up to seven years later, which is equivalent to three first-round exchanges for Artest. It's okay to go with a cumbersome contract.

"Is the source reliable?"

Olshey smiled and nodded: "Of course! Their internal views are not unified. Some people deliberately released news in the hope of messing up or even canceling the transaction. As for whether it will succeed or not, it depends on Jerebas' decision and the king's determination to rebuild. .”

"So how about our first round of transactions?"

"It's not going well!" Olshey sighed, "Firstly, many teams are worried about losing money or being calculated by us, so the priority of trading with us is relatively low. Secondly, this year is a small draft year, and teams that need first-round picks Not many, so…”

Su Yang nodded, thinking that 06 was indeed a small year, excluding Oden who came out because of the butterfly effect, only Adelaide, Roy, Rondo, and Lowry played in the first round. There is no splash, which is considered to be a relatively poor quality session.

The real deal is not playing 2K, you can turn on the compulsory mode, and you have to spend it yourself if no one wants it in the first round.

"If you really can't trade, then it depends on the situation and choose Millsap with the 30th overall pick. Although it will lead to occupying salary space, it can be low-paid for at least four years, and then use the Bobcats to get the second-round selection of PJ Tucker. As for ourselves In the second round of the 60th pick, if Jose Barea has not been selected by then, he can be selected as a backup point guard for training.”

If Millsap is selected in the second round, according to the mainstream practice, it is a 2+1 contract, with an average salary of about 70 per year. After the third year, the salary must be higher, at least 700 million, otherwise it is easy to be snatched away, but if it is the first round of selection Millsap, according to the mainstream practice is a 3+1 contract, with an average annual salary of about 300 million yuan, and the higher salary can only be raised after the end of the fourth year.

Anyway, with the current salary structure and personnel composition of the Clippers, it is impossible to have a big fish deal, so it is better to focus on the future.

Barea is really trained as a point guard. After all, Will Bynum and Azubuike, who are guaranteed for one year, will be released in the summer.

Olshe frowned and thought for a long time, then turned on the computer to check, and said with surprise: "You mean Jose Barea, who is from Northeastern University and is 178 cm tall? He has professional league experience very early, and he can still participate NCAA?"

Barea played in Puerto Rico's professional league in 01 at the age of 17, and then joined Northeastern University in the 02-03 season to participate in the NCAA competition. It is said that he could not participate in the professional league after playing professionally. I don't know why, but it seems strange.

"Yes, let's choose him. Anyway, we lack a point guard. The old Payton will mainly maintain the locker room next season."

"walk slowly!"

The discussions related to the draft are over, and the topic turns to the early contract renewal of Kaman and Milicic.Su Yang didn't want to worry too much, the main emotion would easily affect the judgment, and the main thing was to leave it to Olshey, unless the two teams asked for a high price.

The same is true for whether Wilkins and Barnes renew their contracts. It depends on their wishes first, and then how Olshey handles it.

Leaving the office, Su Yang took care of shooting practice for a while, rushed to the company at noon, checked with Lu Qi the last batch of co-investors who bought Facebook, looked at the semi-annual report data of YouTube, and transferred to the new base to watch Ivanka recorded the show.

The guest of the pilot episode specially invited the wealthy socialite Paris Hilton. Su Yang thought that the two rich daughters would have a lot to talk about, but in the end, both of them were on the stage, walking through the program mechanically, smiling professionally in a business style, and there was no program Effect.

Look at the name of the show again, it's called "Youtube Watching the World".

Su Yang almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, and said in his heart that there was nothing special about it, and the $2000 million would definitely be in vain.But if Ivanka can understand the limitations, that’s fine. Anyway, it costs money to pick up girls. When it fails completely, it can better intervene in guidance.

On the 24th of the next day, I rushed to the airport to receive my father and mother who flew to Los Angeles. Su Yang took the two elders to visit the META Group Park under construction in Santa Monica, and said arrogantly to my father: "You can put the pig farm in the future. Drive to America!"

The old man shrugged slightly: "I heard it! It doesn't matter whether I can open a pig farm or not, but it's important for you to pretend!"

Instead, the three daughters of Yanxi took the two elders to play in Los Angeles. Su Yang was busy with the company and the team. The university also took time to practice Westbrook's shooting posture, and then went to Drew High School to play a league game. Baron Davis blasted 62 points.

In a blink of an eye, on the 28th, the draft day arrived.

Considering that he would choose three players and meet with several film company executives by the way, Su Yang flew to New York on purpose.

After flying for six full hours, I got off the plane and checked my emails, and found that Lu Qi reminded Yahoo that Yahoo had publicly promoted the acquisition of Facebook; Olshey informed that McGrady would jump out of the contract after getting the exact news, but not to the Lakers, but to the Mavericks. Dirk.

In other emails, Anne Hathaway and John Scarlett invited to attend the premiere of "Wearing Prada" together; Ivanka edited and finished the pilot version in advance, so she can shoot swimsuit covers and posters together when she has time; Lively has also vacated the schedule .

The national team's squad for the World Championships has also been determined, and a place is reserved for training, and they can fly directly to Japan.

Summing up a little, Su Yang sighed sincerely: This TM will be a very crazy offseason, burst!
