Lisko’s American Life

Chapter 787: Quote Yao Ming

He said that his subordinates also have some local stars. As an agent, those are the things he is responsible for.

Just after flipping through a few pages, his expression became sluggish, he quickly put the coffee in his hand aside, and read carefully on the screen.

"NBA Denver Nuggets?"

The beginning of this email made him very puzzled. As the most famous basketball league in the world, he naturally knows the name of the NBA, and there were two Greek stars in the NBA before.

One is Jake Chakalidis, who was selected 25th overall in the first round in 2000, and the other is Vasiris Spanoris, who was selected 21st overall in the second round in 2004. In the eyes of men, these are the heroes of their Greeks.

"Why did the NBA contact a Greek agent with me? Is it because of a player of mine?"

Thinking of this, his expression immediately became excited, and he carefully read the email from beginning to end.

"Giannis Antetokounmpo?"

He touched his chin, and was once again shocked by the NBA team's news channel. Speaking of which, the seventeen-year-old teenager was a good seed he found by chance. He had also sent some practice videos to the mailboxes of some teams. But the responses I got were not very concerned.

There is no Denver Nuggets among these teams. After all, several consecutive setbacks made him disheartened, and he did not continue to repeat this action.

Originally, he gave up a little. The NBA said that it is against discrimination, but it is true that discrimination is everywhere, and they do not pay much attention to overseas players.

His original plan was to let Giannis Antetokounmpo play in Greece for two years first, and then seek to develop into the NBA when his skills became more mature. But now an email from the Nuggets has given him renewed confidence.

He quickly took out his mobile phone, found the saved number and dialed it.

"Hello? It's me, Dimitropoulos, where are you? What? The basketball court? Go home now, pack your clothes, we're going to take the fastest plane to America, yes, there's a team I saw you and invited you to try out, this is our chance, put down your **** basketball and get ready to go right away."

After speaking, he picked up his jacket, rushed out of the office building, and drove quickly towards the house where the other person lived. If he didn't seize this opportunity, it would be the biggest regret in his life.

The Nuggets here have also traded with the Pelicans, but Tim Connelly is quite capable. He understands what the boss means. At present, the Pelicans have a very embarrassing record, ranking first in the league. 16, obviously missed the playoffs.

This trend is obviously rotten. The boss is betting that the opponent's draft right next year is the No. 1 pick. However, if the intention is too obvious, the Pelicans will definitely open their mouths.

So he put forward a trade directly, making it clear that he wanted to get the opponent's star, Paul, and after careful contact with the boss, he learned that the other party did not object to Paul joining the current Nuggets. This is also a good person. A point guard, and it takes time for a rookie to grow up, and it is also good to have an immediate combat power.

In order to get this deal, he put out all the players in his team, with the obvious intention of rebuilding with Paul as the foundation. This attitude will definitely make the opponent's heart move.

In order to match the amount in the transaction, it is also very common to carry next year's draft picks, so that the picks obtained will not attract attention.

Just in the course of a series of transactions, Tim Connelly got what Lisko wanted most without knowing it. After he saw this on the news, he couldn't help but applaud and give it to the other party. went to the phone to encourage.

At the same time, the contact with Yao Ming's team was also officially launched. At this time, Yao Ming's contract with the Rockets had entered the last year. With the news of the season's reimbursement, the Rockets had decided to rebuild and would not offer Yao Ming any more; He is at a crossroads in his career.

And because of Yao Ming's injury, other teams in the league are also intimidated. So far, there has been no offer from any team. The appearance of the Denver Nuggets immediately gave his team a light.

The protagonist in charge of this negotiation is Tim Connelly. The president of a team's operations personally came out, which can not be regarded as disrespectful. Tim Connelly came to the hospital in Houston, where Yao Ming was recovering. train.

"Hello, Yao, I'm Tim Connelly."

Tim Connelly looked at the giant in front of him, and couldn't help but be shocked again. This yellow-skinned No. 1 draft pick is really tall, and his burly stature is also very shocking. The whole person seems to be Facing a humanoid beast.

However, Yao Ming has inherited the humility of the Chinese people very well, and he is very enthusiastic when facing the guests.

"Hello, Tim Connelly,"

At this time, Yao Ming looked very calm. Although the pain made his face not look so healthy, he has been in this league for so many years, and he has seen a lot of wind and rain. clear.

"Then I'll say it bluntly. As far as I know, Yao's contract has expired, and no one has matched the offer at this time. The Rockets also clearly want to rebuild. Our Nuggets hope to get you to join our camp~ www.wuxiamtl.com~ Quietly listening to Tim Connelly's words, Yao Ming's expression did not change, but he had already started to recall the current Nuggets lineup in his mind. This intensity is not competitive.

However, Tim clearly saw Yao Ming's thoughts and began to describe it.

"Our team has just changed owners, and the new owner has injected a large amount of assets into our account. Next, we will give up this year, and we will trade Paul next year. If you join, it will make our lineup stronger. Strong, but also has the standard to compete in the playoffs."

"And the first task that our new boss gave me was to have you join us at all costs, and our boss lady is also a Chinese. You will be the next cornerstone of our team."

Speaking of which, Tim thought he was full of sincerity. However, Yao Ming still did not give an answer immediately. After all, such an important matter needs to be carefully considered. He still has his own team and needs to discuss it together. These are understandable.

After Tim reported his conditions, he turned around and left the city. For him, although he desperately wanted to complete the boss's task, he couldn't be so low-key. As far as conditions are concerned, no team can compete with him. conditions compared.
