NBA bench saves national team

the next day.

Qin Feng bid farewell to his parents, returned to Kyoto, bought a plane ticket to the United States, and flew directly to Oklahoma City, the city where the Thunder team is located!

In his previous basketball career, Qin Feng also often went abroad for training and competitions, so his visa and other documents were well prepared.

After more than ten hours of long-distance flight, Qin Feng finally arrived in Oklahoma City.

His agent, Bill Duffy, was already waiting at the airport to greet him.

Qin Feng saw a blond, blue-eyed, and enchanting beauty from the United States, holding up a pick-up sign with two Chinese characters "Qin Feng", and walked over directly.

"Hey, are you Bill Duffy sending me?"

Qin Feng asked tentatively.

"I am Bill Duffy's secretary, and you are Qin Feng from China?"

The American beauty said, looking a little excited.

Qin Feng nodded.

Immediately, the beauty tossed her blond wavy hair, twisted her water snake waist, stepped on high heels, and led Qin Feng out of the airport rattling, and got into a Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle.

Bill Duffy was sitting in the back row, smoking a cigar in his mouth.

Seeing Qin Feng getting into the car, Bill Duffy was expressionless, and directly threw over a contract.

"Man, here's our contract. It's for two years. After the two years are up, we can sign a new contract."

Bill Duffy said lightly, very indifferently.

He was very disappointed with Qin Feng.

If it wasn't for Dayao's face, he wouldn't even want to accept this business.

In his view, Qin Feng may not stay in the NBA for one season, and he will become a marginal player of the team. In the end, there will be nothing more than three results.

First, the Thunder bought out Qin Feng to free up salary space to sign someone else.

Second, it was sent to the Development League.

Third, was traded to other teams by the Thunder.

If Qin Feng's performance is not good, then no NBA team is likely to be willing to take over the bad signing of the Thunder.

If you choose the Lakers, you can at least stay with Kobe, get a little attention, and if you are lucky, you can get some advertising endorsements.

But coming to Oklahoma, a bitter cold place, and a small-market team, if they can't play well, they won't get any attention.

Perhaps only the Chinese media will report on this Chinese who entered the NBA.

After all, Chinese people are looking forward to having Chinese basketball players enter the NBA.

Bill Duffy felt that the two-year agent contract was too long.

If Qin Feng is really given up by the Thunder, then he has to be responsible for finding another home for Qin Feng.

Regarding Bill Duffy's indifferent attitude, Qin Feng just raised his eyebrows.

Before coming, Qin's father also warned him that he must know how to endure in a foreign country.

What's more, he and Bill are just a cooperative relationship, so it's understandable that they don't give them any good looks.

In the final analysis, he is not strong enough, not enough status.

If he becomes an NBA superstar like Dayao, I'm afraid Bill Duffy will not have the current attitude.

From this, he could imagine that when Dayao first arrived in the United States, he must have received a lot of ridicule and ridicule, and he was constantly questioned.

But Dayao turned all these into strength, and finally won the respect of the Americans.

Now he also has to do this thing, and use his performance on the court to gain the respect of these Americans.

Qin Feng roughly scanned the content of the contract and signed his name on it.

Bill Duffy put away the contract and said lightly: "I hope we have a happy cooperation! The management of the Thunder team is waiting for us. Now let's complete the signing, so that I can leave here to do other things."

Qin Feng nodded.

Seeing Qin Feng's silent attitude, Bill Duffy was a little surprised.

Qin Feng on the phone is very young and frivolous, and he is even more outspoken when he is bragging. Why is he so silent now?

Ha ha!

That's it?

Haven't officially entered the NBA yet, and you have become unconfident?

Don't even dare to say anything?Don't even dare to blow the bull?

Bill Duffy chuckled inwardly, looking down on Qin Feng even more.

Boom boom boom!

The engine of the commercial vehicle roared slightly, and it drove away from the parking lot of the airport, heading for the office of the Thunder team's management.

Half an hour later, the commercial vehicle stopped in front of an arena.

The crowd got out of the car.

Thunder general manager Sam Presti is already waiting in front of the arena.

Seeing Qin Feng, Presti showed a cordial smile and hurriedly greeted him.

"Welcome! Welcome! Qin, I'm finally looking forward to your arrival."

Qin Feng shook hands with him and smiled politely.

"I've watched all the videos of you at the Olympics! It's really amazing!"

Presti continued, expressing his approval of Qin Feng.

The reason why he was willing to sign Qin Feng with a lucrative contract of 1300 million dollars was because he made a judgment after watching Qin Feng's game video, and believed that Qin Feng had enough potential to grow into a superstar like Dayao.

Now that the Thunder are still rebuilding, they need a lot of talented young players.

As long as he can pick out excellent young players for the team who can make the Thunder rise, Presti is not afraid of junk contracts.

Trying is the most important courage for the Thunder in the new season.

"Thank you! You will be proud of this signing for the rest of your life."

Qin Feng said with a smile, Zhang Yang's character showed again.

For those who recognize him, he will not restrain his character.

Presti was stunned, as if he didn't expect Qin Feng to be so... straightforward.

Bill Duffy also paused, knowing that this is Qin Feng's real character.

What did the silence before that mean?

Do you disdain?

Bill Duffy was a little upset, thinking he was a Chinese with personality.

Several people came to the office, and Presti took out the contract.

Qin Feng looked at it, and asked Bill Duffy to look at it. After confirming that there was no problem, he wrote his name on the contract signature.

"Congratulations on becoming a member of the Thunder. I hope you can spend three happy seasons with the Thunder and work hard to help the team and improve the record."

Presti said, a stone in my heart has fallen.

Knowing that more than a dozen teams have provided contract offers to Qin Feng, especially after strong teams such as the Lakers and Cavaliers have also provided contract offers, Presti has been hanging in his heart, thinking that the Thunder hope not big.

But he didn't expect Qin Feng to choose Thunder, which made him very excited.

No matter what Qin Feng's future career path looks like, Presti is willing to try it!

"Absolutely! I will bring glory to the Thunder! The Thunder will rise this season!"

Qin Feng said, very confident.

Presti smiled and didn't pay much attention to this sentence.

Although he is very optimistic about Qin Feng, it is still a bit exaggerated to say that the Thunder will rise in one season.

He is very clear about the current situation of the Thunder team.

Durant, Westbrook, Jeff Green and other players are all potential rookies.

These players may be able to play good statistics, but it is more difficult to lead the team to win the game.

Rookie players lack experience in the NBA; their ability to carry energy needs to be developed; the offensive and defensive system is not yet perfect, etc. These are all problems of the Thunder.

This is not something that can be resolved in one season.

Perhaps after two or three years, when these players grow up, the data and the team's record can be taken into account, then the Thunder will really usher in a revival!

"By the way, what number jersey are you going to wear in the new season?"

asked Presti.

"Number 23!"

Qin Feng replied.

"Oh? Your idol is Jordan?"

asked Presti, not surprised.

Jordan's influence on basketball is too great.

"No! I want to be Jordan of the Thunder!"
