Chapter 34 Knocked to the ground (page 12)

At the post-game press conference, Vince Carter dressed up and faced reporters, "I didn't expect to get a triple-double again, but I personally don't value data. I hope the team can win."

"I don't think Glen Rice's provocation before the game was a question. Players need to find ways to win. He is the All-Star Game MVP and is very strong. I am happy to beat him on the court."

Carter looked calm and relaxed, completely losing his crazy state on the court just now.

The reporters listened to Carter's words and nodded. He is indeed a super rookie and has a very mature mind. It's a pity that this kind of interview lacks a bit of exposure. It would have been nice to watch if Carter was self-righteous and madly attacking his opponents.

Glenn Rice wanted to beat Carter before the game, but failed. After the game, he was very dissatisfied and breathed a few words into the microphone. "We lost today mainly because the team did not connect well and suffered injuries on the defensive end." Haunted, otherwise we would have won."

He attributed the failure to the fact that the point guard position was blown out, not him. Reporters also asked about Carter's triple-double, allowing Glen Rice to weigh in.

The super rookie's performance really exceeded everyone's expectations. No. 1 pick Iverson failed to produce Carter's crazy performance.

"Yes, Carter scored 25 points, but I scored 27 points. I scored more points than Carter, and it was more difficult." What he meant was that I, Glenn Rice, am not weaker than others, let alone Carter.

As for the triple-double mentioned by the reporter, Glenn Rice wisely chose to ignore it.

After attending the press conference, the Nets players thought they would stay in Charlotte and experience the nightlife in Charlotte. Unexpectedly, Carter also supported the team's immediate return to New Jersey.

The team boss seemed to have forgotten his plans for the evening.

"It's still early, we can arrive before 12 o'clock in the evening. Everyone go back and have a good rest." Calipari had just won the game and was about to have a drink. He didn't want to stay in Charlotte, or was more comfortable in New Jersey.

"Boss, aren't you taking us out to have fun? Why do you want to go back?" Williams asked in a low voice. Although his performance on the field was not good, he was most positive about drinking and having fun.

"I arranged a nightclub in New York. If you don't want to go back, just stay here!" Carter looked indifferent.

"Go back, you must go back. I don't want to stay with Charlotte for a minute anymore." Cassel showed an ugly smile and responded quickly.

Carter waved, and Daniels came over politely and took the VIP card from Carter's hand with a flattering look on his face. "Lloyd, you take them there tonight and spend money directly."

"Hehe, no problem." Daniels is also an undrafted player. He only entered the league at the age of 25. He has already been through the Spurs, Lakers and Kings, and has never met such a team leader.

He is very adaptable and likes to run errands for Carter. He is even more diligent than a rookie.

"No problem, I will take care of it. Is Rashid going?"

"Of course, as long as he is willing. Remember, I take care of everyone on the team." Carter picked up the phone. His date was already urging him, and he didn't know what to worry about.

Before, it could only be regarded as a romantic relationship, but I didn't expect that the other party seemed to know the taste and would occasionally contact Carter to chat about daily life.

Maybe the other person is in an emotional window and is more likely to be impulsive. It just so happened that Carter was to her liking.

When the plane landed in New York, the players immediately dispersed and gathered again at the nightclub.

The team will only train tomorrow afternoon and will have half a day to rest.

"It's boss's treat tonight. Boss said, everyone can have fun as you like."

Nets players stayed up tonight and headed to the nightclub in droves.

Carter had no time to have fun with his teammates. Mucci's car had been prepared in advance and he took Carter into the hotel.

presidential suite.

Carter knocked on the door, and Jennifer Connelly, who was wearing cool clothes, rushed forward, clamping her slender feet on Carter's thigh, "Little Vince, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Why are you so anxious? I was competing in Charlotte just now." Carter smiled and held the peach with both arms, making relaxed and freehand movements. The peach and the rabbit were both small, but their bodies were not heavy. "Is there anyone suitable?" My collection of antiques?”

"It's not an antique business, it's just that I miss you." Jennifer Connelly ripped off Carter's packaging frantically.

"There's really nothing I can do about you." Carter had no choice but to comply with Connery's wishes.

After all, Hollywood actresses receive much attention and usually have almost no private space. It is easy to find a little gap, and naturally they have to fill the emptiness in their hearts.

…………

"I'm full..." Connery spread out on the big hotel bed, which was soft and comfortable and didn't want to move. "Little Vince, can you stay with me this morning?"

"Why do you feel like you are hiding something?" Carter leaned next to Connery. "Is your career not going well recently? Tell me and listen. Although I can't help, at least I can be a suitable listener."

"It's okay. I've been very angry these past two days and I just want to meet you." Connery smiled and traced Carter's chest with his fingertips. "I plan to find some time to take a break for a year and keep walking around the filming site. My whole body is full of energy." Can't cheer up."

"It's probably burnout. Just take a few days off and it'll be fine."

"I hope so." Connery thought again, getting really angry.

…………

Seeing Carter going out, Connery could only smile. He had already run out of energy and was staring at the ceiling with a contented expression.

Connery didn't think Carter was special before, but now the more he thinks about it, the more special he becomes. To be honest, Carter is not handsome, he is still dark-skinned, but he obviously has some elusive special temperament that is attractive.

It was almost noon when Carter returned home to New Jersey. After a brief sleep, I got up, made something to eat, and stuffed it into my mouth. I was immediately full of energy and full of blood.

Being young is good and energetic.

Fagan called and said, "Vince, the Nets are negotiating with Toyota and plan to transfer the stadium naming rights. But Toyota is bound to you and you must sign with Toyota."

Carter became angry when he heard this. The team really regarded him as a cash cow and wanted to squeeze out any remaining value.

It doesn't matter if you shake money, you can't tie him to a tree and shake him!

"Let's not talk about the quotation, the team has not communicated with me about this matter. In addition, you should be the one to negotiate whether I will sign with Toyota."

"That is, the most important reason is that Toyota has no luxury models at all. You can't say that they focus on fuel economy and affordability, right? This is not in line with your grade, and players represent power, speed, and exciting aesthetics. Toyota cannot match it."

It still has to be a high-end sports car, model or brand, all of which are in line with athletes' pursuit of speed and passion.

"Decline", Carter gave Fagan an order, "I support the team in generating revenue, but my personal rights must be protected."

The team needs him now, and it's impossible to kill the goose and get the eggs just after he has made a name for himself.

"No problem, I'm angry too. I have no interest in Japanese brands. They are too calculating and I don't want to play with them." Feigen cursed a few times before hanging up the phone.

According to the contract, the Nets are not qualified to bind players to make money with the team. Only players can be consulted.

As soon as Carter arrived at the training ground, he was called into the office by Calipari. Joe Taub was actually there, and it seemed that he had been waiting for Carter for a long time.

"Vince, I have something to discuss with you." Joe Taub showed a shrewd smile of a businessman and looked at Carter, "That's right, the team plans to cooperate with you and sign a contract with Toyota, and you can also get a big deal from Toyota. contract."
