Chapter 387 Renewing Contract Early
In the next two weeks, Xie Kai followed Dameng and sweated profusely in the training hall in Houston to train his dream footsteps.

Dameng is not only teaching Xie Kai's back-up skills and low-post footwork, but also teaching him the offensive and defensive skills of some inside players.

Xie Kai was like a sponge, absorbing the techniques taught by Dameng to his heart's content, and didn't get annoyed and resisted because he taught too much.

Dameng was also very surprised. At first, he thought that Xie Kaihui would be as proud and complacent as those young and famous players, and he would not study hard.I didn't expect him to be so humble and open-minded, which made him very satisfied, so he naturally taught him some of his special skills.

Xie Kai didn't feel bored at all in Dameng's training class, he felt very fulfilled, even more fulfilling than playing games.Imagining that he can continue to improve is really something that makes him feel extremely happy.

During this period, the NBA Finals have ended, and the Mavericks, with their better performance, defeated the Heat, which owns the Big Three, and avenged their revenge in 2006.

Nowitzki won the FMVP by virtue of his wonderful performance in the 6 games of the finals.

Xie Kai was very emotional when the Mavericks won the championship.If I want to comfort myself, it is that my Grizzlies team lost to the championship, and it can be regarded as a "deserving death".But he didn't want to comfort himself, that's the act of a coward.The mentality of the strong should be to accumulate energy and take revenge in the coming year!
The two-week study period soon ended. When parting, Dameng said to Xie Kai: "I am amazed by your concentration and comprehension ability! To be honest, I was not optimistic at the beginning that you could learn more under my guidance." How far you have learned, but I can tell you now that you have learned very well! Again, you need to continue to train and consolidate in the future before you can really learn."

"Thank you Hajim, your teaching has benefited me a lot, I will remember your words, thank you for helping me in the past two weeks, thank you!" Xie Fa thanked from the bottom of his heart.Although he spent money, he knew that Dameng did not hide his secrets, and gave him a lot of experience and extra skills, which made him very grateful.

Xie Kai has graduated from Dameng. He excitedly opened the personal ability quantification table in his mind to see how much his own value of the "back body technique" has become.

But after reading it, he was disappointed because there were only 25...

Xie Kai clearly remembered that at the end of the season, his value was 21!In other words, after two weeks of studying here at Dameng, I only increased by 4...

Xie Kai was a little frustrated. He felt that he had worked very hard and was appreciated by Dameng. He thought that his comprehension and learning ability were excellent, but how could it be...

But Xie Kai figured it out very quickly. At the end of the lecture, Dameng told him to train and consolidate himself later, and there is a saying in China, which is "just talk but not practice fake moves".When I was in school, it was impossible for the teacher to digest the knowledge at once after the class. Isn’t it necessary to digest and absorb it by doing questions?

The truth is similar.

During this time, Xie Kai got good news that his home team, the Grizzlies, was discussing with his agent, Thaddeus Fucher, about an early contract extension.

Both Xie Kai and the Grizzlies are willing to renew, and the key to renewing the contract lies in the length of the year and the size of the contract.

There is no doubt that even if Xie Kai is finally restricted in the Western Conference Finals, he is still the most promising young player in the Grizzlies.It is not even an exaggeration to say that he is one of the top young stars in the league.Such a player, the Grizzlies have no reason to let him go.

谢开目前的合同是他在2008年签订的为期4年，总价值为500万美元的新秀合同，其中2011年、2012年是球队选项。

This is a standard first-round rookie contract. Compared with the lottery pick, except for the difference in the total amount, everything else is the same.

Of course, the Grizzlies can choose to implement the player option for the final year, and they don't have to worry about Xie Kaihui leaving after the contract expires next summer, and they get nothing.

Because according to the NBA's rookie contract regulations, even if the contract expires, Xie Kai is still a restricted free agent. Other teams can make offers, but the home team can choose to match.

So in theory, as long as the Grizzlies are willing, Xie Kai will wear the Grizzlies jersey to play for them in the next few seasons.

The reason why the Grizzlies proposed to renew the contract early is not their first initiative. Many teams in the NBA do this.The purpose is of course to be able to express the sincerity of the team so that these talented young players can stay in the team for a long time.This actually has another meaning, that is, once the contract expires and becomes a restricted free agent, once a competitor offers a maximum salary or a poison contract, then even if the home team matches, it will be very unfavorable to your future salary situation. .

Xie Kai has not yet agreed to the Grizzlies' request for an early contract extension. He asked his agent to talk, but he has not yet decided.He knew that if he agreed too quickly, it would actually be detrimental to his own interests.Now he has enough capital to negotiate with the team, which makes him very excited.After being in this league for 3 seasons, he is finally able to control part of his destiny.

The problem now is not only that Xie Kai and the Grizzlies are negotiating contracts, but also that the NBA is likely to be shut down, so many players and their home team have not reached a signing intention, and a large part of the reason is this.If it is really suspended, then all NBA games will be stopped, and signings will be put on hold.

Although the NBA may be suspended, the draft is still going on as scheduled.

On June 6, the 24 NBA Draft was held at the Prudential Center Arena in Newark, New Jersey, broadcast by ESPN across the United States.

This year's NBA draft is also the last NBA draft for the New Jersey Nets.After the 2011-12 season, the team moved to Brooklyn, New York and changed its name to the Brooklyn Nets.The Nets switched to the new name in the 2012 NBA Draft.

In the end, the Cleveland Cavaliers with the No. [-] pick selected star guard Kyrie Irving from Duke University; the Minnesota Timberwolves with the No. [-] pick selected Beasts forward Derek Williams from the University of Arizona; The Utah Jazz drafted Enes Kanter from Turkey.

Xie Kai's home team, the Grizzlies, did not have a first-round pick. They finally selected combo guard Josh Selby with the 49th overall pick in the second round of this draft.

Xie Kai's former club, the Kings, selected Congo insider Bismack Biyombo with the seventh overall pick in the first round.
