Reboot McGrady

Chapter 150 151 Obsession
After the game, McGrady stood in the center of the court, raised his hand, moved slowly, and pointed to the audience around him.

The audience cheered along, very much in line with McGrady's rhythm.For most Hawks fans, this is the first time they've felt successful.

"Originally, I was just because the Eagles were in Atlanta, so I came here as a spectator to gather the number of people. Unexpectedly, I fell in love with the Eagles and Tracy McGrady."

Fans indulge themselves.

"No, what you love is just the feeling of success." The friend next to him threw cold water, "Unlike me, I only love McGrady!"

A few gray-haired old men, trembling all over, felt like they were going to belch at any time. They had witnessed the success in 1958, but now they saw the team reach the conference finals again.

"McGrady, he is the God of the Eagles!"

"Tracey, that's great. If I have a grandson, I will definitely give it to him. Unfortunately, I only have a granddaughter, so I can't." The old man grinned, and there were only two front teeth left.

In the student area, the tickets are the cheapest, and they bought McGrady's jerseys with the money they saved.

Here is a sea of ​​No. 1 jerseys.McGrady chose No. 1 in the Heat and Eagles.

Today, the No. 1 jersey has become a new symbol of Atlanta's urban culture!
On the court, a few elementary school students who were reluctant to leave were chatting, "Hey, John Collins, would you buy a pair of T-macs? I think McGrady is very handsome."

"I made a special trip from Florida to Atlanta to watch football, isn't it just for my special idol McGrady?" Collins looked forward to it, "In the future, I want to be as tall as McGrady and play as handsome as him. Most importantly, I Not going to buy a pair of T-Macs, I'm going to buy a bunch of them."

On the other side, Dwight Howard finished his popcorn, "Starting tomorrow, I'm going to practice shooting and I won't eat snacks." Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by the cheerleaders on the sidelines again, "I said, these girls really sexy."

The fans were reluctant to leave, and McGrady took the initiative to leave the field.

"Tracey, if you don't leave the court, they won't leave." Tyronn Lue next to McGrady said something very pertinent.

McGrady hugged Tyronn Lue, but he couldn't see it. This kid is so clever at praising the boss.He thought about it, Tyronn Lue's contract seemed to only be signed for one year.

It's only a small contract of hundreds of thousands. No wonder Tyronn Lue took the initiative to hook up with McGrady many times, but he has been particularly popular recently.He saw the days of Stephen Jackson and Ben Wallace.

Ralph Alston hooked up with Jackson and also got some opportunities to play. The data has improved a lot and he is expected to successfully renew his contract.

"Lu, this summer, prepare to train with me."

Hearing this sentence, Tyronn Lue almost flew up. He knew what McGrady meant. As long as McGrady felt credible during summer training, he could get a new contract from the Eagles. .

"No problem, I'm ready. Moreover, I will focus on the three-pointer, and I will attack the three-pointer."

McGrady opened his mouth, and the reaction was really fast.Thinking of nothing else, I went to the press conference site, all the spotlights were focused on McGrady, and they were crackling.

McGrady has long been familiar with dealing with these.His appearance was to decompress Carlisle. Carlisle's rookie head coach, facing the reporter's inquiry, was covered in sweat, which was harder than coaching the team.

Seeing McGrady appear, quickly hand over the stage to McGrady.

At the moment, Billy Knight is conspiring with Chambers.The team is still fighting, and the management is about to start planning for the new season, advancing on two lines.

"The team needs to re-sign a few players. Of course, if Terry and Billups re-sign at the same time, we will run out of cap space."

Terry's performance is enough to win a middle-class starting contract, and Billups' performance is even better. Both the defensive end and the offensive end can provide McGrady with enough help.

Terry is open to a contract extension.Billups prefers to stay in the Hawks, he likes the atmosphere here, and also likes the feeling of being around Tracy McGrady.

"Last season, when we signed Billups, we offered a verbal contract of 6 yuan and 3500 million US dollars, which was the base price of the agreement at that time." Billy Knight flipped through the documents, "The main limitation is that Rashid He still has a big contract for 2 years. Next season will be as high as $1620 million."

Rasheed Wallace was transferred from the Blazers. The owner of the Blazers, Paul Allen, was rich and gave too much.Rasheed Wallace's annual salary this season is 1440 million U.S. dollars, and next season, it will increase to 1700 million U.S. dollars.

Much taller than McGrady.

His contract, plus McGrady's tens of millions of contracts, has squeezed a lot of salary space.

"At that time, we will also sign the No. 3 pick. According to the rules, we can provide a 1+386 contract with a starting salary of US$[-] million in the first year." Billy Knight is still clear about these basic tasks.

Chambers was a little annoyed when he heard that, isn't it just for money?But after thinking about it, if Terry and Billups renew their contracts at the same time, it will bring huge problems, that is, they will immediately encounter the luxury tax.

"Billups or Terry, which one does McGrady like better? Anyway, just listen to McGrady." Chambers dropped the words, "You discuss it with McGrady!"

This season, McGrady has created huge economic benefits for the team.Chambers' trust in him continued unabated, and he even wanted to invite him to his house for dinner.

"Hey, is it possible for us, I mean possible, to win the NBA championship?"

"Of course there is a possibility, but it is very low. It is recognized that the Lakers are the strongest at present. They will fight the Kings. At that time, if we beat the Nets and break through from the East, there will be 15 % chance of winning the championship."

"So low?" Chambers pursed his lips and didn't speak again.Forget it, don't think about it, let's make money first.Discuss with the director of operations, should the price of tickets for the finals be quietly raised?
The situation in the East is clear, the Nets defeated the 4ers 1:76 and successfully advanced; the Eagles played one more game and immediately followed up.

The Eagles are about to play against the Nets.Both teams are newcomers. Last season, they did not show their strengths, but this season they reached the Eastern Conference Finals at the same time.

Scott looked forward to the game and believed that the Nets are not weaker than others and can fight.Kidd will dismantle the Eagles' defensive system, and he fully trusts the super guard.

Carlisle was a little nervous, man, there is always a first time, "We will be very cautious in the Eastern Conference Finals because we are new recruits."

He even kind of wanted to pack his asthma and heart medicine.

In the Wild West, it's also two 4-1 series.The Kings defeated the Dallas Mavericks 4:1, and the Lakers eliminated the Spurs with the same score.

The Kings and the Lakers will stage a peak matchup. This series is considered to be better than the finals.

At this time, Kobe suddenly said, "There is no doubt that I hope to lead the team to advance. I believe that the Eagles will break through from the East. Then, I will defeat Tracy McGrady and be crowned the champion."

Obsession!The obsession with the championship, and the obsession with the team leader.
