NBA: Me! The Raging Point Guard

Chapter 17



The summer league is still going on.

But the draft is over and the trading market is open. The teams in the league, knowing that Su Hao only signed a 10-day short-term contract, began to scramble for Su Hao.

Pelinka's side.

After collecting and screening a series of quotations for almost a week, he found the small three-story villa where Su Hao was.

Villa?

Yes.

During this period, Su Hao was not idle. With Kobe's introduction and help, Su Hao rented a 200-square-meter three-story fine-decorated small villa near Staples, close to the bustling area of the city, for 30,000 US dollars a year.

Is it expensive?

Quite expensive.

Thinking of renting a villa for almost 180,000 Tianchao coins and only being able to use it for a year, Su Hao was so painful that he couldn't sleep.

However.

This place is close to the stadium, which is convenient for training and competition. This will undoubtedly save Su Hao a lot of time and energy. It is also close to the city center and convenient for transportation and entertainment.

In this way, this villa is worth the money.

The living room in the villa.

Rob Pelinka handed the selected and sorted offer documents of various teams to Su Hao, and said at the same time:"For now,

I think there are three teams that are suitable for you.

First, go to the Warriors, 20 million for 2 years, the price is not cheap, the time limit is short, and the Warriors are strong. Although......With Curry and the"Splash Brothers", you may not be able to become the core.

But if you go there, you can make a lot of money, win the championship, and grow for 2 years, then jump out of the contract and get a bigger maximum salary contract again.

I think it's good.

Secondly, go to the Rockets, and combine with Harden, one of the strongest backcourts in the league +"Magic Beast" Howard. The overall strength of the Rockets with the Big Three will become stronger, and perhaps they will become a championship contender.

At the same time......Since Howard is no longer at his peak, you and Harden will become the"Rockets dual core", which will bring you both fame and fortune.

Third, if you go to the Cavaliers, basically if you go, the Cavaliers will definitely beat the Warriors to win the championship, but you can basically only be a substitute, and the Cavaliers don't have a superstar like Curry who has a cabbage contract.

So.

Your salary will not be high.

So......After comprehensive consideration, the Warriors and Rockets are better. If that doesn't work, then choose the Cavaliers."

Hearing this

, Su Hao nodded slightly, and then said:"Forget about the Rockets, reject all their offers, I am not interested in this team.

In addition.

What about the Lakers' offer, didn't I ask you to pay attention?"

""Yes."

Pelinka nodded and said,"Today, in addition to showing you some quotes, I came here to discuss the contract with the Lakers.

Kobe has repeatedly told me that he hopes I can keep you in the Lakers.

However,

Su Hao, to be honest, the Lakers are really not good at the moment. Although I am Kobe's agent, I have to say that in terms of ability, Kobe is troubled by injuries and his increasing age. He really can't go back.

If you stay in the Lakers, you will basically not have any honors in the first few years of your career. You can only wait for the team to select more high-ranking rookies.

And.

You will have a chance when they grow up.

So......I actually don’t quite understand why you insist on staying with the Lakers. Is it because Los Angeles is the second largest city in the United States?!"

"Yes."

Su Hao said in agreement, and then without waiting for Pelinka to continue, he said:"Then let's go and listen to the Lakers management's offer now."

Of course.

In fact,

Su Hao would choose the Lakers because of the system task. Helping Kobe win his sixth championship will reward [Curry's three-point ability].

This reward is very good.

However,

Kobe, who is about to retire, cannot leave the Lakers, so......It was impossible for Su Hao to poach Kobe, so he gave priority to joining Kobe!!!

Not long after.

The two came to the Lakers manager's office.

Su Hao, Pelinka, Kupchak, and Scott sat opposite each other on the sofa.

Although Su Hao made it clear that he would not go to the Rockets, during the negotiation, Pelinka still gave the Lakers three selected offers from the Warriors, Rockets and Cavaliers. certainly.

The Lakers also know these offers.

After looking around, Manager Kupchak put down the document and said straight to the point:"Su Hao, are you willing to go to the Warriors or Cavaliers as a green leaf?

And James Harden is also an absolute core ball-handler.

With his ability and playing style In the past, you could only be the second in command, a general who rushed to the basket and scored.

On the contrary, if you stay with the Los Angeles Lakers, you will be the new totem of Los Angeles. This is not my words, but Kobe said it himself.

So, you can imagine how much we value you and we have thought about the contract quotation for a long time.......There is no Timberwolves' 30 million in 4 years, nor New York's 21 million in 3 years.

$12 million a year.

If you sign for one year or only for one year, our single-year price is higher than the Warriors’ 10 million. At the same time,......Don't tie you to a contract.

As long as you play well enough.

Next season, you can re-sign a maximum salary contract that is definitely not inferior to that of the league's All-Star stars, and it does not necessarily have to be the Lakers. in this way. what do you think?!"

"Only sign for one year?"

Pelinka frowned, a little dissatisfied.

Because......One year is too short, although if Su Hao plays well, he can sign a larger maximum salary contract next year.

What if it doesn't work well?

That's not directly destroyed. The risk involved is not small.

"Su Hao, I think......"

However, just as Pelinka was about to remind Su Hao, Su Hao smiled and said,"Okay, one year only, I agree to stay with the Lakers!"

"very good!"

Kupchick also smiled and nodded,"Su Hao, I believe you will shine in your rookie season, and I look forward to re-signing an All-Star-level maximum salary contract with you next season."

"Su Hao!!!"

Su Hao agreed so decisively that Pelinka was shocked. However, this shocked expression soon turned into affirmation and praise.

Because.

12 million US dollars a year.

This is a high-risk and high-return contract. If you play well, you don’t need to wait for more time, and you can get a bigger contract next year. If you don’t play well, you will fall into the abyss.

Su Hao was so decisive, obviously he had absolute confidence in his own ability. He believed that he could perform at a high level and live up to his worth in his rookie season.

Next year, he will soar into the sky.

Looking at Su Hao with confidence in his eyes again, Pelinka couldn't help but smile,"Since I chose you, I should believe in you unconditionally.

Just like......

I chose Kobe without any hesitation!"

So.

After less than half a month of fighting with Su Hao, Su Hao finally renewed his contract with the Lakers at a price of 12 million US dollars a year.

That afternoon.

When the Los Angeles Lakers announced the news on their official Twitter, they were immediately Detonating the alliance again.
