Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

In less than a minute, the people in the base camp had completely escaped. Even if this was their own territory, they had to escape, because West and Magic didn't know how to make trouble after they found out that they had been cheated.

Although a 10 million endorsement contract with a seven-year term is equivalent to an additional expenditure of 1.4 million+ per year, and it is independent of the team's salary space, which is not unacceptable to the Lakers, but West and Magic What is unacceptable is... the fact that the two brothers were tricked by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Where is the love you promised?

Betrayed our love?

Aren't you afraid of bearing a debt of conscience?

This, this, this... those of us who knew the truth, all shed tears!

So, West and Magic faced Auerbach's ridicule and suppressed their grief and anger, and began to raid the base camp. However, the raid plan could not proceed because the place was empty, leaving only the international chef Ma Qiangdong, if it weren't for Ma Qiangdong's worthlessness... the two brothers even wanted to kidnap him, the only fire source in the base camp, to force those unscrupulous young and old people to show up.

…

West: Come out quickly, your international chef is in our hands.

Unscrupulous young and old: Digging holes, killing or beheading as you please, Chef Ma won’t even blink an eye for you!

Ma Qiangdong:? ? ? Mom made a batch of sales!

Magician: Kill him and I will make it impossible for you all to eat!

Unscrupulous young and old: Kill him. The worst that can happen is to change the cook. Do whatever you like!

Ma Qiangdong:? ? ? Who did I offend when I stepped on the horse? You, Uncle Ma, just said a few words. You want me to finish it? Damn it, if you still have some conscience, buy some fruits and come back to me, Uncle Kangkangma.

…

"Hey hey hey..."

"Li, why are you laughing?"

"Oh, it's okay. I was wondering if they would take it out on Ma Qiangdong."

"Horse? They're not going to take it out on the horse. And it's not a massive hemorrhage. West and the others are just sulking at most. Let's go back to avoid the limelight for a few days."

At this time, the unscrupulous young and old have escaped, and this battle is also a complete victory, so whether it is Li Shengli, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Thompson, or Turner are very happy, especially Turner, as an agent, the size of the contract is directly related to His income was tied and he was as excited as a 60-year-old kid.

As for Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Thompson...

The two of them have provided a huge amount of help since they entered the league. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was relatively wealthy after his retirement, but Thompson's contract amount when he played was not high, and coupled with his excessive spending, his life was not actually good. , so Li Shengli also thought about it, you can't be without conscience, and you can't lose to these two uncles.

It is not suitable to directly distribute dividends according to the brokerage contract like Turner did, but the investment industry that he had previously asked Turner to manage, and 50% of the year-end dividends were paid out, is very suitable for the retirement of his two uncles.

Although more than 3 million yuan has been invested so far, the profits are not much for the time being, but the victory lies in the steady flow, and Li Shengli plans to make additional investments in this area. The two uncles only need to divide the money and do not need to invest. As for this beautiful battle After the fight, Li Shengli and his three uncles just wanted to go to the city center of Greenville... and spend a good and careful time.

…

"Splurging?"

"KFC?"

"Full... family bucket?"

Sitting in the KFC restaurant, the third uncle couldn't bear to look at it and couldn't accept it, but Li Shengli held his chest and said, "Hey, what are your expressions? This is a family bucket! I usually can't bear to eat it, but this time it's a one-time meal Ordering four buckets, one bucket for each person, isn’t that considered a splurge?”

"So... they keep saying that you are very restrained in your diet and very self-disciplined, but in fact you are just a stingy person when you are riding a horse?"

"So...your hobby is just saving money, not spending it?"

"So... is this why you asked the waiter for a toy car?"

"Toy car? Are you kidding me? They were doing an event in the store. This was given to me. I didn't ask for it from them." Li Shengli held the car, while Thompson on the side naturally hated eating fast food, because he was originally a When the No. 1 pick in the ABA joined the league, the Eagles treated him to McDonald's. This bad thing has made him worry about it for more than ten years. Fortunately, this time Li Shengli treated him to KFC.

But looking at the toy car in Li Shengli's hand, Thompson suddenly thought of what he had just told Li Shengli that O'Neal had helped this time and wanted to 'blackmail' Li Shengli into getting a sports car. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Turner Lao were also involved in this matter. Knowing that, the three brothers collectively fell into deep thought and looked frightened.

"No...no, right Lee?"

"You don't mean to..."

"I hope your friendship doesn't break up over this."

"Where are you thinking!" Li Shengli rolled his eyes at the three of them, "But... do you think Shaq will like this car? It's a car, right? It's a sports car, look, it's really Can run!"

…

This, this, this...

These two people are really pissed off!

One wants to blackmail, the other wants to cheat, and he can think of any harmful tricks!

"Ahem, okay, stop joking!" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar interrupted everyone's teasing, "Lee, the whereabouts of you and Shaq have been decided now. I guess you have read the news these days. But... the Lakers Even if the Celtics get you and Shaq, it will not be easy to improve in the short term. The lineup needs to be strengthened. As for the Mavericks, they made a stupid decision and are now basically paralyzed. When the contracts of your teammates expire, you can ask West to recruit people in the free market for you."

"I know this." When it came to business, Li Shengli put the car in his pocket and became serious, "Crotty has always been with me. He signed a one-year contract. West will not refuse him. But Kidd and Garnett, I hope nothing will happen to them. The bad news is... Auerbach seems to have targeted Garnett. I'm afraid Garnett will follow Shaq and go to Kyle. Special person."

"Well, don't worry about these two people for the time being. It's still early. In addition... the strength on paper does not mean the final combat strength. It is impossible to predict what effect you will have when you come to the Lakers. Maybe there is something you can't expect. Surprise, after all, you can see all the problems after playing for one season." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar ended the topic and did not dwell on it.

"Yes, this is all in the future!" Thompson nodded, "Now think about the most difficult thing right now. To be honest, I originally planned to organize a player gathering, but what I didn't expect was that this Things seem to be beyond our control. West has already said that they will bring people here, and Shaq has also given news. Auerbach has suffered a loss this time, and the Celtics have made even greater noise. When the time comes...this party can only get bigger and bigger."

"The Lakers and Celtics are directly involved in this kind of thing. Although there is no profit purpose, it seems to be in violation of the league regulations, right?" Agents are the most familiar with the league's regulations, and the old Turner knows this very well. But that's it.

"There is nothing against the rules. This time it is not in the official name of the team, but in a private capacity." Thompson frowned, "The real problem is that this year is the 50th anniversary of the founding of the league, and Stern is the official team and has started the 50th anniversary of the founding of the league. In the selection of superstars, those old guys who are of the same generation as us or even further away, they have no chance of exposure, so this time is perfect for them. By then, it will not only be the Lakers and Celtics, but also our What I’m afraid of is that some people… come uninvited!”

Uninvited?

How many people will come then?

Although only 50 of the top 50 superstars are selected, there are old guys who can't stand it and there are alternatives who also want to show up. This is a big problem, because in the long 50-year history of the league, there are really many first-line stars born. .

In addition, current players, rookies in 1996, and various teams will show their faces.

Including the news media and reporters from all walks of life who were invited to add fuel to the flames, it can be said that... the number of participants this time has been immeasurable.

"My initial plan was to increase Li's exposure and establish a network of contacts, because if he wants to increase his worth and exposure, he cannot have less, but now...it seems that he can't stop the car. The biggest ones are the Lakers and Celtics. The number of superstars produced is the largest, and everyone wants to promote their own people."

“Although Greenville is our territory, it still won’t be when the time comes, so that’s two different things, so we won’t be able to eat all of the exposure cake.”

Thompson looked sad. Although it seemed that the cake was getting bigger, there was no doubt that... there were more people eating it.

"Lee and I will not care about these matters. You and Turner will handle it!" Jabbar pondered for a while, "However, it is also beneficial to continue this development. Don't forget our president over at the New York headquarters. He’s not dead yet. The bigger this thing is, the better. The bigger it is, the less they can control it, and they may even have to push us back. Besides...this time, among the top 50 superstars, Li and I both have a chance. of."

"You have a chance, what about me?" Thompson suddenly thought to himself.

"Ahem, man, sometimes it's good to be a behind-the-scenes worker." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar scratched his head, because Thompson really didn't have a chance. Not to mention his short career, his reputation during his service was not good, and he was always being criticized. Dr. J and Iceman of the same era were really embarrassed, but fortunately, entering the Hall of Fame this year is not without rewards.

"It doesn't matter, I don't care!" Thompson pretended not to care.

"That's enough. Let's prepare for this event. To be honest, it's not impossible for West and the others to decide on our territory, but their focus must be on Lee and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, because this is This is our purpose this time, otherwise... Li, Li, what are you doing?" Old Turner patted Thompson, but glanced at Li Shengli, who was in a state of despair, and found that there were only a pile of four buckets on the table. Chicken bones, even Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Thompson went crazy.

"No, don't look at me like that. If it's cold it won't taste good. I'll help you eat some first!"

"This, this, this...have you eaten a little?"

"Damn, all that's left is the chicken bones, okay?"

"You ate all our buckets while we were talking?"

"Look, you guys are stingy. Don't worry. I told you I'm here to splurge today. Wait, I'll order four more buckets. Well, it seems... I can even buy Shaq another car."

Jabbar:?

Thompson:? ?

Old Turner:? ? ?

O'Neill: I don't know why, but a wave of malice and rage came over me!
