Start hanging from getting the Dayao template

Chapter 2 Signing
August 6, morning.

Malone woke up.

The fatigue caused by the excitement and extra training last night was gone, and he is a hero who is fierce and fierce.

"It's just too fierce, and the pants are a little tight."

Malone adjusted the egg track.

My physical fitness is getting stronger and stronger, and I have some troubles in that area.

Although he didn't go to college, his grades were very good, and he also applied for a major in sports.

I have read a paper, which has a proper private life, which can promote sports performance to a certain extent.

The principle is somewhat similar to strength training.

After consumption, there will be a period of fatigue.

After the fatigue period is over, it is the overweight stage, which is more powerful than usual.

After signing the contract, find a girl who can train with you.
With anticipation for the future, Ma Long started morning exercises after washing his face and brushing his teeth.

Immune to injuries, don't worry about affecting your body. Ma Long has been doing strength training, so his strength is much better than Dayao's at the same time.

The biggest problem for high school students entering the NBA is confrontation, especially inside.

The confrontation is done well, and with his bug-level height and wingspan, it is not a big problem to stretch his skills a little.

But yesterday I got the lateral movement speed training card. Today I changed the training items and started to follow the content of the training card.

As Malone used the training card, a system prompt popped up.

"Turn on the lateral movement training, the related talent restrictions will be lifted, and the training efficiency will be greatly improved until the lateral movement reaches 90"

This means very straightforward.

It's dry wear talent.

Ma Long likes this kind of simplicity and rudeness very much.

But after starting training, Ma Long felt the difference in the training card.

If you know what movements to use in the dark, you can more effectively train the muscles related to lateral movement.

How to exert force in the movement, where to focus on to have a pumping feeling, how to restrain and not use other muscle groups, and the coordination of breathing and movement.
With one foot on the balance ball, catch a pass with the tennis ball against the wall.

Respond to the erratic cue light once per second by striding across.

Hop small cone barrels on one foot, and quickly jump grids.

Wear a resistance band around your waist for side slides.

After doing the movements one by one, it's like having the best and most considerate coach to give him targeted guidance.

Because most of them are high-intensity short intervals, they are much more tiring than strength training.

After a while, the vest was soaked with sweat.

Ma Long was so tired that he felt that he had reached his limit, but he couldn't stop.

The biological instinct is to live more comfortably, easily and efficiently.

The body is deceiving, the limits of what you feel are not the limits.

The training card allows Ma Long's spirit to break through this deception, truly reach the limit and then break through!

In addition to practicing lateral movement speed, you can also practice a part of explosive power and reaction speed.

Part of the training also needs to be combined with dribbling, and the ability to control the ball can also be developed.

After practicing for an hour, Ma Long broke through the limit and was exhausted.

After panting for a while, Ma Long forced his body to lunge and stretch to relax.

After recovering, a notice from the players union came.

Today we will start a meeting with the Trail Blazers.

Malone rinsed and dragged his limp body to the hotel's coffee shop.

After shaking hands with the person in charge of the rookie negotiation of the NBA Players Union and the lawyer, the other party began to introduce the rookie contract.

There are more or less rookies without agents in the draft every year.

There are even players who don't want an agent.

That's why the players union has this department.

When Malone applied for the draft, the NBA handed over his basic information to the players union for registration in accordance with regulations.

The first thing he has to do today is to add his detailed information to the person in charge, that is, to hand over more detailed personal information to the players union.

When he successfully signs with the NBA team, the players union will cooperate with the signing team to apply for Malone's long-term labor visa and other necessary things, so the players don't need to worry about it.

After all, it is a professional league.

Just before 10 o'clock, Trail Blazers general manager Bob Whithit and head coach P.J. Carlesimo arrived.

Ma Long met yesterday, and asked some people to find out.

The former has a great reputation and is recognized as one of the most wise general managers in the league. He is nicknamed a trader and a salary cap master.

In analogy, Danny Ainge is kind of like him.

The latter is a rookie head coach, and the Blazers are coaching for the first time, and their performance is mediocre.

But it will be famous in the future.

The historical event of the nba, the 'madman' Latrell Sprewell's chokehold incident, was the one who was choked up.

Neither are easy people to get along with.

After exchanging pleasantries, Bob Whithit said: "Ma Long, we have absolute confidence in your talent, and we regard you as an important part of the team's future."

"This is our signing contract for you."

Malone took over the contract.

A very standard three-year rookie contract of around 3 million yuan,

It wasn't a long-term contract. Ma Long was very satisfied and showed the contract to the lawyer.

After checking that there was no problem, Malone signed the contract and applied for an advance payment of next season's salary.

The boss is Paul Allen, one of the founders of Microsoft Corporation, and one of the richest tycoons in the United States. Bob Whithit was very generous and simply agreed.

After signing another agreement to entrust part of the money in the players union according to the rules, Malone received a check for more than 20 US dollars.

Escrow is to avoid a player tax default situation.

Even if it is bankruptcy, there is not a single penny left for spending days and nights every day. With these escrowed money, taxes will not be delayed.

The players have no problem either.

Who dares to bb with the tax bureau?

"Ma Long, you are welcome to join the Trail Blazers. I think our future cooperation will be very pleasant."

"By the way, the team will move into a new home next season, the Rose Garden Stadium."

"If you want to visit the new home in advance, you can call me, here is my business card."

The whole thing was done, Malone and Bob Whithit shook hands with P. J. Carlesimo, and management hurried away.

Ma Long was a little surprised: "Are they in such a hurry?"

"This is normal."

The person in charge of the players' association shrugged: "Our negotiations with the league on June 6 were unsuccessful, and we will stop on July 18."

"Stop?"

It was only then that Malone remembered this.

The NBA almost shut down last summer.

Because the No. 94 and No. [-] picks in [-] cost [-] million.

In the end, the No. 10 pick was 6800 million in 9 years, and the second place was 6000 million in [-] years.

Interests lead to conflicts between the league and the players union.

The player side wants to limit the length of the rookie contract, and there will no longer be a sad reminder of Pippen's 7-year 2000 million.

The boss wants to stipulate the length of the contract for the veteran, implement a hard salary cap, and not give the rookie a super contract.

Anyway, both sides proposed some terms that the other party could not accept.

Under the beautiful Chinese-style negotiations, the happy conversation collapsed.

It took a year and no results were discussed.

It is now basically certain that this season is completely over, that is, after June 6, the players union will go on strike and the NBA will be suspended.

"But don't worry about turning into a shortened season."

The person in charge said: "Michael Jordan has returned, and the NBA's income has skyrocketed!"

"Owners don't want a lockout when Jordan is back."

"I think the Trail Blazers just want to get the team's business done before the lockout, and when the lockout is over, they can directly start the work of the new season."

"There were a lot of first-round picks signed directly last night, and it was relatively late to sign this morning."

Is the influence of the basketball gods?
Malone understood.

They all gave the checks, and the next season did start normally in my memory.

But in this way, the summer league in July will definitely not be played, and it is a pity that there will be less opportunities to practice.

Keep training!
