NBA: Top 6D talents to start

After winning the championship, there will be a two-day float parade.

This is a carnival that belongs to the entire city of Phoenix.

People who didn't care about basketball at first also participated in this carnival, and fell in love with this sport ever since.

Weidong truly became the hero of Phoenix.

The mayor of Phoenix also participated in the parade. He also wanted to present Weidong with a 'Best Citizen Award', but Weidong refused directly.

Weidong likes all kinds of trophies and medals.

However, such a 'best citizen general' issued by country M made Weidong very disgusted.

For example, last summer, before the start of the 2012-13 season, the White House sent invitations to the Suns, inviting them to visit the White House.

This can be regarded as a tradition, but the time is uncertain. Last year's invitation time was still some time before the opening of the new season, and Weidong was still in Yanjing at that time.

When Gentry told Weidong about this, Weidong agreed.

However, the day before the appointment, Weidong did not attend the White House banquet on the grounds that he overslept and missed the plane from Yanjing to Washington.

The Sun teammates all felt sorry for Weidong, only Weidong knew what it was that he overslept, he just didn't bother to go.

On the third day after winning the championship, Wei Hua and Li Zhen flew to Hawaii for vacation.

Weidong took Li Jiajia to a dinner party.

It was a dinner party with a small number of people. Only Nash, Thrall, Gentry, Weidong and Li Jiajia were present.

Teammates are still having a blast at the nightclub.

This small gathering was organized by Nash. Nash was similar to Weidong, and he didn't like the noisy environment of nightclubs. Weidong was a little surprised why Nash called Sal up.

During the meal, after chatting for a while, Nash said, "Weidong, I'm going to retire."

"Is it so sudden?"

Weidong was very surprised, because Nash signed a three-year contract with the team, and the contract will not expire until 2015.

In other words, Nash still has two years of contract to be fulfilled. If he chooses to retire because of his subjective reasons, the team can completely refuse to pay his salary for the remaining two seasons.

But the current Suns don't need Nash to lead the team alone like he did 12 years ago.

He only needs to sit on the bench, play for more than ten minutes in each game, and play as a substitute with peace of mind. Not only can he win two more championships, but he can also earn more than 2000 million more.

Nash said: "I am very content with winning two championships. I have been troubled by back injuries this season, and I struggled through the playoffs. I think it is time to retire."

"Oh."

Weidong nodded slightly, then looked at Sal.

Nash should have mentioned the decision to retire with Thrall.

"I only found out about this yesterday."

Thrall said: "But I support Nash's decision, so the team will fire him. After all, he is one of the souls of the Suns."

"Um"

Weidong nodded, Sal was still very angry.

For Nash who voluntarily retires, if the team management does not agree to pay the remaining salary, the players will not be able to get it, but Thrall is talking about dismissing Nash, which means that the team will expel Nash, which is of a different nature. , that is acquiescence to Nash's decision to retire and is willing to pay the remaining salary.

In other words, for the next two years, Nash will still have an annual income of more than 1000 million (before tax) while enjoying the sun and beach bikinis.

Seeing Weidong's expression eased, Thrall also heaved a sigh of relief.

He made this decision for two reasons.

One reason is that Nash has paid a lot for the Suns over the years and now wants to retire. He respects and supports him.

The second reason is even more important, that is, to show Weidong, to let Weidong recognize himself and the team, can be regarded as buying people's hearts.

In fact, Thrall also knew in his heart that with Weidong's current strength, he was definitely not short of money, and it could even be said to be richer than him. The contract offered by the team was no longer enough to be the main reason to keep Weidong. If you want to keep Weidong in the Suns, you must let Weidong have a sense of belonging to the team.

Weidong didn't know this little thing in Sal's heart, but this little thought was really harmless.

The four were silent for a while, and Wei Dong asked, "Old man, what do you want to do after you retire?"

"Enjoy life."

Nash replied, even with longing in his eyes.

It's no surprise that most players, when they decide to retire, say they're enjoying their retirement.

"Have you considered becoming a coach?"

Weidong looked at Nash and made a joke.

"coach?"

Nash frowned, then shook his head, "I don't have that idea yet."

"Um"

Weidong responded, and said something that made Nash a little confused, "A great player does not necessarily make a great coach."

"Let's have a drink."

Gentry raised his glass, "I wish Nash a happy retirement life!"

Nash smiled and said, "Hahaha thank you."

Wei Dong also sighed a little, "I didn't expect to be teammates with Lao Na for more than a year. Every summer, I feel a little bit sad to see my old friend leave."

"Is Maizi going to retire too?"

Weidong asked Gentry a question.

"Probably not"

Gentry said: "Last night, McGrady and I talked on the phone for an hour, and listened to what he meant, and he wanted to stay with the team next season."

Wei Dong smiled and said: "That's a good thing, it seems that this year's finals made him play with confidence."

McGrady is unwilling to retire, and it is good to stay in the team for retirement. With his current state, he can still contribute to the team by playing about 10 minutes per game in the regular season.

Sal asked: "Brother Dong, what is the revenue of Weidong Group in the first quarter?"

"I don't care too much about this"

Weidong smiled mysteriously, but didn't answer directly.

How could he not know the revenue of Weidong Group in the first quarter, he just didn't want to tell Sal.

Everyone likes to pay attention to the ranking of the rich list.

In fact, in China, some people are unwilling to appear on the rich list, and some industry giants are not even willing to go public.

For example, China's Qinghua Group and Maisui Group, these two companies pay hundreds of billions in taxes every year, but the names of Mao Anqi and Zhang Yang are not seen on any rich list.

Weidong Group will be such an enterprise in the future.

Sal smacked his lips, rubbed his hands and asked, "Brother Dong, you should be rich now, right?"

"Okay."

Weidong smiled mysteriously at Sal, "Should be richer than you."

The employee is richer than the boss, which makes Sal feel very sad, and even has an inferiority complex.

Gentry also had worries in his heart, and asked, "Brother Dong, you won't retire after playing for two years?"

"will not!"

This time, Weidong answered firmly, and said to Gentry: "Coach, I want to play basketball."
