From today on is the king

Chapter 415 413. This is our glory...

After returning to Atlanta from the imperial capital, Liu Mang took a rest at home for a day, and adjusted his mentality of watching the last day of the year approaching and about to collapse.

Since there is no game from December 12th to January 30nd, the Eagles will have to rest for four days. The Eagles’ schedule in January is still easy, and there are only two back-to-backs like the previous two. The opponents are not too strong, except for the Nets.

So the first two days are off, and the last two days are planning and training for the 1 games in January.

Seeing that December 12 is approaching, Liu Mang has a lot of things to do, but he really wants to sleep on it.

But there was no way, early in the morning on the 31st, Schwartz called him to go to the team.

What should come will come after all. Seeing that 2002 will be over soon, some things can't be done!

However, doing this kind of thing alone is a bit unhappy!

It seems that the teammates like this dance very much. If this group of guys who can't write letters are allowed to be "teachers" together, they will definitely be very happy!
Will!

Liu Mang has two things to do today, the first thing is to renew a contract, and the second thing is...

Liu Mang first sent a few text messages, invited a few good teammates to the arena, and asked them to help with something, and then rode his own bicycle that was about to retire to the arena.

Looking at this bicycle that has been in use for the fourth year, it is indeed almost unbearable.

Liu Mang is still reluctant to part with this bicycle, but it's probably time to buy a car!
If you want to move, if it is a villa, it will definitely be far away from the arena. A few kilometers around the arena is either a school, an apartment area, or a commercial area. There is no such thing as a villa area. Liu Mang thinks it is okay to ride a bicycle within ten kilometers. It is right to exercise. If it is too far, he still has to drive.

Arriving at the Phillips Arena, Liu Mang came to the general manager's office. Schwartz was already chatting with Steven Price and coach Kruger. The lawyers brought by Schwartz and the team's lawyers were all ready to leave work.

"Haha, Ace, you're finally here. I've been waiting to send the contract directly to your house." Steven Price hurried up to greet him.

"..." Looking at the boss who was getting more and more enthusiastic, Liu Mang couldn't get used to it. He stretched out his hand and shook it, saying, "I'm sorry, sorry, I overslept, and it's rare to rest for two days."

After exchanging pleasantries, it was done, and next to the big desk again, Steven Price handed over the contract to Liu Mang.

Liu Mang looked at it, and there were two main things.

1. The home team's priority renewal clause is extended to the 2003-2004 season.

2. The full middle class contract will be renewed for one year, tentatively set at $1 million. The specific amount will be determined after the salary cap for next season is announced. The total amount will not exceed 395.2% of the salary cap for next season.

A bunch of miscellaneous things like jersey sharing, portrait rights sharing, etc. are common practice. Most of the jerseys of ordinary players cannot be sold, and there is no share.

Portrait rights are not worth much these days, and there are not many NBA games, and unlike in the future, the share of jerseys and portrait rights will be shared equally by all players in the league. For many players, these two clauses are temporarily useless.

Liu Mang looked at it and signed his name. Of course, the Chinese name he signed, Ace was just a nickname, and Liu Mang was still on the passport. The passport of the Celestial Dynasty cannot add the English name.

Seeing Liu Mang's thousand words, Steven Price's heart sank, and finally the contract was renewed!

As for the 1-year contract, it's not a problem!

If Liu Mang signed a mid-level contract for two or three years, Steven Price would feel even more panicked. Obviously, the middle-level class is not in line with Liu Wei's worth, but Liu Mang's rookie contract can only be signed by the middle-level contract.
After signing, under the instructions of the cameraman, everyone smiled and faced the camera, showing the signed contract. Liu Mang and Steven Price shook hands, and the signing ceremony was over!
"Ace, I hope our future cooperation will be more pleasant." Steven Price was very happy to finally resolve the most important contract extension of this season.

Jason Terry decided to negotiate a contract extension after the end of this season. Now the data is too ugly, the price is difficult to negotiate, the team is difficult to lower the price, and the player agent is difficult to talk about price increases.

However, Jason Terry will have bird rights and the parent team's priority renewal clause at that time, so it doesn't matter. Jason Terry's worth in the free market is not over [-] million, and the Eagles are under little pressure to renew his contract.

After exchanging pleasantries, Steven Price started to get down to work, and asked Liu Mang, "Ace, the season has passed for two months, do you have any suggestions for adjusting the lineup?"

This is the right of the team’s core or focus on training players. Steven Price has asked Raheem and Jason Terry before. Neither of them is the kind of brain that is particularly easy to use.

Liu Mang has an idea, but it will definitely not be realized this season. The Eagles' current half-dead record is estimated to last for a long time. The idea of ​​​​requiring a record cannot be realized.

"Let's look at it in the summer. It's pretty good now. We have good depth in every position and are heading for the playoffs. If we make adjustments, it may affect our current state." Liu Mang chose not to express his thoughts.

Steven Price is a bit disappointed. Now he can be said to blindly trust Liu Mang's vision. Liu Mang's vision of players is too accurate!

But thinking about the draft again in the summer, it’s a draft year that only happens once in seven or eight years. At that time, his team should have a mid-first-round pick. Steven Price thinks it’s not bad, so he will let Liu Mang go to the trial at that time.

……

……

The renewal is over, and a big deal in 2002 is done.

But there is a bigger thing, a big thing!

"Punishment for failing to buckle the little giant: go to the Six Nations Park Plaza in Atlanta and find at least ten Chinese aunts over the age of 40 to teach them to dance square dance. Please complete it on December 2002, 12. For each missing one, 31 superstar points will be deducted. If the superstar points are insufficient, the superstar points will be double deducted."

Seeing that even after completing the daily tasks of the Pacers game, plus the previous superstar value of just over 8700, Liu Mang could only call his teammates together with tears in his eyes.

Jason Terry, Raheem, Muhammad, Prince, Boozer, Newbell, Ratliff, Liu Mang has the best relationship with the team, Barnes also respects Liu Mang, Emmanuel and Liu Mang also have a good relationship, but they are still playing in the Orlando Development League and will not come back until the game against the Cavaliers.

"Ace, you said you have something important to find us, what exactly is it?" Jason Terry asked with concern.

Others also looked at Liu Mang curiously, the tone of the text message Liu Mang sent to them seemed to be a big deal.

Liu Mang has adjusted his state and is about to start showing off his acting skills!
"Ahem, everyone, listen to me," Liu Mang said with a posture that the heavenly general will be appointed to the people. "Before, I danced with Tyshawn during the game against the Pacers. Now it's popular, and you should know it too!"

A few people think about it, it seems to be!It was on the TV news, and it was widely circulated on the forums.

"Ace, do you want us to dance together before the game? Of course it's no problem!" Jason Terry said that buddies also want to be popular!

"Wrong, wrong, wrong!" Liu Mang gave you such an unambitious expression, "We all have our own characteristics, Jason, you already have your own moves, you have to keep it, that is your personal label! Sharif, Nazr, you are the same, Taishaun, if you are starting in the future, you will go to the DJ to discuss what song to play before the game, and you can figure out what dance to dance at home. This is our own personal label. Even if we retire in the future, people will not easily forget us! Carlos , Yila, don’t worry, when you have a chance to start, I will think of one for you.”

Liu Mang looked at Boozer and Newbell who were eager to try, and felt that he was going to have a headache to find some moves for them.

Prince nodded heavily. He felt that he often had no sense of existence. Although he was low-key and plain, he wanted someone to remember him. Recently, he also started to be in the news, but it was not because he played well, but because he danced with Liu Mang.

Although the others didn't know what was wrong, but Liu Mang said that, they really felt as if what Liu Mang said was right!
"Then Ace, what are we going to do?" Jason Terry was still puzzled.

"We have a great mission!" Liu Mang said and waved his fist again.

"We have created a new dance style, NBA court dance! Many people want to learn, but they can't learn the essence, because no one teaches them, which makes me feel very sad! Although this is invented by me and Tyshawn, but we are a team, people like our dance, just like our whole team!"

"So, we are all fine while we are on vacation. I don't want you to waste your energy on women's bellies. We should do something more meaningful."

"Seeing a lot of fans on the Internet who want to learn our dance, I hope you will join me in going to Six Nations Park to teach everyone how to dance, and spread our NBA court dance to the Atlanta fans who love us!"

Liu Mang babbled nonsense, but his teammates were excited when they heard it!

"Ace, we support you!" Jason Terry, the most emotional guy, was the first to punch.

Someone took the lead, and everyone else excitedly expressed their honor...

"Ahem, okay, Tyshawn, you teach everyone the essence of dancing, and then everyone chooses some songs they like, we rent a set of equipment, go to Six Nations Park to find some aunts between the ages of 40 and 60, and ask them to dance our NBA court dance!"

"Okay... wait, Ace, why a woman between the ages of 40 and 60? Can't young women? Can't men?" Jason Terry asked a lot.

"Uh...you can't do it for young women. As for men... How can teaching men be as motivated as teaching women? You like a big bearded man wriggling around you?" Liu Mang continued to talk nonsense.

"Right……"

"The main reason is that we want to spread the NBA court dance we created, so that aunts aged 40 to 60 have free time to teach their husbands and children, so that it can spread!" Liu Mang himself felt that what he said made sense!

"That's right! Ace, you are indeed smarter than me!" Jason Terry believed Liu Mang's words completely.

"By the way, remember that if you can find Chinese, find more Chinese aunts." Liu Wei emphasized the most important thing.

"Why?" Jason Terry was always the problem baby.

Liu Mang is so helpless, but he must find help in this matter, otherwise he will be the only one who will lose face, so how can he do it!
Liu Mang had a flash of inspiration again: "Of course it's because I'm Chinese! I also want my glory to spread to people in our country, and let them know about the NBA street ball dance we created. It's best to spread it to our country. I hope you can find one or two Chinese aunts to help me promote it..."
