Healing Basketball

   Chapter 28 28. This is called professional

   "Bill, you don't need to sign for now. The endorsement fee has doubled and it's not that high. I still want to sign a long-term contract... I'm not in a hurry to sign a sneaker endorsement for the time being."

   "Jess, you play in the Blazers, and your commercial value in the U.S. market has been greatly affected. The current offer is too low. If you only sign a one-year contract, we can accept it, but we don't need to consider a long-term contract.

   And now that your business value has started to increase, I think we can be patient...our big guy. "

  Liu Xiu was a little surprised, this old serious man was actually joking.

   The rapid changes in public opinion made Liu Xiu feel a little bit like the Internet age.

   It's not what he wants, but the commercial value is rising... ah... it's really fragrant...

   But I still have to remind: "Bill, pay more attention to the endorsement contract, don't forget to check the mailbox, it will be bad if you miss the quotation negotiation."

   "Haha, I won't forget it again... Really thank you very much, I almost missed the time to notify the Heat to implement Carter's player option..."

   Bill Duffy on the other end of the phone laughed, but he was very scared.

   Before the draft, Liu Xiu signed a 4-year contract with the Blazers and asked, 'Bill, the contract option expires today, right? ’

   Hearing this, he suddenly remembered that the player option of Anthony Carter's final year contract with the Heat was not implemented!

Anthony Carter's contract salary in the last year of the contract is 4 million dollars. With his performance of averaging 4 points and 4 assists per game last season, he will never get such a salary. I really forgot to notify the Heat in writing or email to execute the contract. Bill Duffy There will be two options.

   One is to lose money, 4 million dollars, even for a top broker like him, 4 million dollars is equivalent to cutting his flesh.

   If you don't pay, you may have to face a lawsuit, $4 million. This is it.

   He hurriedly handed the Heat an option to enforce the contract by June 30, avoiding losses and potential trouble.

   At the end of the chat, Bill Duffy asked: "By the way, Jess, those media are deliberately leading the wrong public opinion, do we really need to clarify?"

   A lazy rhetorical voice came from the other end of the phone: "Is clarification useful?"

   "Uh..." Bill Duffy replied painfully: "I don't think it's useful, you are a Blazers player."

"Yes, so don't worry about it. In fact, it's good. The reporters are all discussing things off the court. No one pays attention to how I play. It happens that I'm not very good, and the pressure on the court will be much less. Slowly grow and slowly progress..."

   "You won't make any progress if you train a little more... eh eh eh... This kid, hang up every time you mention this!"

  Bill Duffy was about to nag when he heard a 'beep' on the other end of the phone and had to stop.

After    hung up the phone, Bill Duffy thought about it and called his secretary in.

   "Tom, you can hire another secretary for me. The weekly salary is 700. You don't need much ability. You just need to be careful, punctual, and able to remember things."

  Secretary Tom heard that he was going to hire a secretary, and his heart skipped a beat, this is going to happen!

   But when he heard the salary and job requirements, Tom showed an expression that all men understand. It felt really rare!

  Tom responded immediately and went to work.

   It is not easy to hire a full-time secretary with a weekly salary of $700. However, it is very simple to hire a beautiful secretary who is careful, punctual, and can remember things... People are not only able to earn a basic salary.

  Two or three hours later, Tom brought a hot, **** 20-year-old white female secretary back to the office of the boss, Bill Duffy.

Whether    can join the job depends on whether the boss is satisfied or not.

  Bill Duffy looked at the skirt that was open to the hips and was a little confused - 'Are all female secretaries now dressed like this? Oh, by the way, Alexander's secretary is also dressed like this. ’

  In his 40s, it's normal for Bill Duffy to feel like he's outdated in terms of dressing and fashion.

  Bill Duffy looked at the entry form. He was 26 years old and dropped out of high school... He nodded with satisfaction. For these jobs, a junior high school education is enough, as long as he can read, sign and seal, and complete the entry procedures.

  Tom took the completed entry form, frowned at the boss, left the office, and went to the personnel department.

  Bill Duffy was puzzled by this look. At this time, the female secretary went around the inside of the desk and said in a soft tone, "Boss, what are we going to do now?"

   Young people who love work, Bill Duffy likes it!

  Although I didn't graduate from high school, it doesn't matter, work hard and be an honest person is the most important thing.

Bill Duffy took out the information he sorted out an hour ago: "This is the itinerary that I have determined next, you remind me before each trip, and I need to make sure I have working hours in the future. I will ask you every time.

  You go to Tom as soon as possible to learn about our company's business, the signing day, negotiation day, contract execution day...etc. of our athletes, you need to remember.

   That’s all the job content, shouldn’t it be difficult? "

  The female secretary thought about the work, it was really simple, and nodded.

   "Come on, work hard."

  Bill Duffy got up and patted the new secretary on the shoulder, took the folder that had been packed, and left the office.

  Tom is waiting outside the office. He knows that there is still a contract negotiation about the undrafted player at hand. The Nets only want to give non-guaranteed contracts. Their goal is to convert the non-guaranteed contract into a partially guaranteed contract.

   was teasing the intern who just came out of college, Tom suddenly saw Bill Duffy come out of the office, and asked in astonishment: "Boss, so soon?"

  Bill Duffy felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he could only respond: "I've always been fast in this kind of thing, efficiency is the most important thing, let's go."

  'Efficiency is the most important thing...the happiest time is only a few seconds, so only those seconds? ’

  Tom was stunned for a moment, then quickly ran back to his office, packed his things, and went out to work with his boss.

   On the other side, the female secretary looked at the itinerary that needed to be sorted out in front of her, thinking about the work content, and the boss patted her shoulders like an elder to encourage... 'I am... Accidentally started working with closed legs? ’

  …

  …

  Liu Xiu didn't know that his agent had completed a persuasion to persuade people to make good achievements... At around 4 pm, he came to the training ground of the Pepsi Center in Salt Lake City and started warm-up training under the cameras carried by the trainers.

   It was not the first time that the trainers saw it, but they kept talking about it. Before the other players came, all the trainers gathered around Liu Xiu who was warming up.

   "Jess's warm-up is too professional, so let me create a special warm-up training plan for him, I can't do it so well."

   "That's right, and Jace also has a good memory. He warms up very well, from the joints to the muscles...and the range of motion is well controlled, avoiding unnecessary physical exertion."

"Yeah, Jess's warm-up is really good. It activates the body and avoids injury. The purpose of the warm-up is these two. He has almost done it to the extreme... But I went to Syracuse University to communicate with their trainers, and they were not so good. To this extent, I wanted to learn from them..."

   "I heard that Jess adjusted himself according to the warm-up of the trainer program at Syracuse University. I talked to him when I was in Orlando and wanted him to help other people with training programs, but he won't..."

"He probably won't, maybe he just knows his body better and is more willing to use his brain to think of ways to make his warm-up better and reduce the risk of injury... His lazy personality must feel that injury is a very troublesome thing. "

   A group of trainers were chatting around Liu Xiu, and when they got here, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

  The trainers like Liu Xiu very much. In terms of training, Liu Xiu doesn’t have much to do, so he can make a joke. Moreover, Liu Xiu doesn’t train. As long as he trains, as long as he knows how to do it, he is very professional.

   Just like the current warm-up training, it can be used as a teaching template to be photographed and studied.

   Actually... Liu Xiu just followed the warm-up training given by the system to do movements and exert strength...

   Now, he is warming up, and there is a small three-dimensional image in front of him that only he can see. The warm-up action he did is just what this small three-dimensional image has just done, and there is a completion indicator.

   He has done it many times. Basically, the completion of every warm-up movement is more than 90%, from the standard of movement to the comprehensive completion of the force.

   Therefore, the trainers will be given a sense of 'teaching template'.

   Not only did the trainers appreciate Liu Xiu's warm-up training, but when the coaches came to the training ground, they also appreciated it... and it hurts.

   Liu Xiu's training completion and movement standards are very high, which means that the training efficiency will not be low.

   But this guy is just too lazy!

   Liu Xiu has many minor flaws, but in the eyes of the rest of the team, there are more advantages.

   Otherwise, the coaching staff of Syracuse University and the Blazers coaching staff will not pay more and more attention to him.

  Compared to Liu Xiu's advantages, he has a lot of mouth, lack of play, laziness, etc. It's just a small problem... Laziness may be a little more serious, but people are so lazy and they are still making progress, what can you do?

  …

   At 6:20 in the evening, at the Pepsi Center in Salt Lake City, a medium-sized indoor basketball court with more than 5,000 seats, the Blazers and Lakers of both sides of the game have entered the arena.

   The Blazers bench, Kevin Plitcha is doing the final arrangement before the game.

  Liu Xiu listened to the tactical arrangement. It was very simple. One sentence could describe the tactical content—all college students, playing around their three rookies.

   Liu Xiu, Travis Outlaw and Matt Carroll were surprised at first when they were training such a style of play in the past two days.

   They really learned why the Rocky Mountain Summer League was called the 'best for rookies' league.

  Tactics are nothing to listen to, the coaching staff is emphasizing to those college students, so as to prevent them from having nothing to do.

However, this kind of problem may happen to other teams. Within the Blazers team... No matter what the college students think, no matter how much they want to resist, as long as you see Liu Xiu's gentle expression with a hint of a smile face, and lost the courage to resist.

  Liu Xiu didn't take a breath, knocking down Irwin Dixon in his uniform is vivid in my mind...

  Liu Xiu's attention was on his opponent.

'Luke Walton, second-round pick, Amy Uduka, undrafted in 2000, never played in the NBA, can be considered a rookie, Brian Cook, 24th pick in the first round... The Lakers chose this How many coaches? ’
