Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

The Lakers returned to Los Angeles victorious.

Although Felscher became a drag on Kobe and Crotty, fortunately, the players' physiques are much better than ordinary people, and there was no big problem if they persisted and did not go to the hospital. And after arriving in Los Angeles... Kobe and Crotty It has improved a lot, but the swelling in Fisher's sausage mouth cannot be reduced in a short time.

As for the next schedule.

Because they arrived in Los Angeles at 10:30 in the morning, they didn’t have much time to rush back for training, so the team arranged the morning as free time.

The day's training started in the afternoon, and Li Shengli had to go back to his temporarily rented residence for a lunch break. Coincidentally, old Turner also came to visit today.

…

You know, the contract given by the Lakers had additional clauses, which was a seven-year, 10 million endorsement contract.

But this cannot be written into the main contract. It is just a verbal agreement with West, the current general manager of the Lakers.

Lakers regret it?

This is not necessarily the case, because this endorsement is equivalent to a yearly expenditure of 1.4 million, which is not small but not unaffordable. It’s just that West and Magic were also cheated in the first place, so this additional clause is also done Corresponding modifications have been made.

…

"What? We agreed to 10 million, but they still want to give me more money?" Hearing Turner's intention, Li Shengli was overjoyed. After all, no one is willing to make more money.

"That's right." Old Turner nodded and then said, "But in fact, this matter is not as simple as you think. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar did cheat West and the others in the main contract, so he didn't do it this time. Talk, and the final plan is... the main contract will definitely not be changed, but the amount of the endorsement contract will fluctuate, and it will be signed once a year, instead of being signed for seven years.

To put it simply, the Lakers management wants the team's record to improve, and will allocate the final quota to you based on the team's record. Well...it's basically a common performance bonus, and it will be settled after the end of each season.

According to the original agreement, the annual equivalent amount of this additional contract was 1.4 million, but now it has become 700,000 per year, and this 700,000 is not guaranteed. The basic condition is that the Lakers reach the playoffs that season. . "

performance bonus?

There is nothing wrong with this. After all, many players will include these responsibility clauses in their main contracts, such as requiring team leadership performance, playoff performance, and even players' weight gain or loss, etc.

And now the Lakers have made changes to his additional endorsement contract, coupled with the float mentioned by Old Turner... It seems that the amount after meeting the conditions will exceed the tens of millions, right?

…

Before Li Shengli could ask questions, Old Turner continued: "Regardless of any reason, if the Lakers reach the playoffs, you will get a guaranteed bonus of 700,000. If you don't score a point, you will get no bonus. Of course, there are also bonuses if you enter the playoffs. The bonus pool increases by 50% for each round of advancement.”

"Only 50%?" Li Shengli knew after thinking about it.

According to the base number of 70, with each increase of 35, reaching the finals will only reach the original level of 1.4 million, and even if you really win the championship, it will only be 1.75 million. The increased amount and difficulty are completely disproportionate.

"No, you are wrong. It is not calculated based on the base number of 70, but based on the previous round's bonus pool amount." Old Turner knew that he had misunderstood as soon as he looked at Li Shengli.

"This account is easy to calculate. 70 in the playoffs, 105 in the first round, 157.5 in the second round, 236 in the Western Conference Finals, and 354 for the championship."

"So the final plan is...the total bonus floating range for 7 years is 0 to 24.78 million, until the end of your player contract."

…

Did you hear that right?

An increase of 3.5 million+ million in one year?

This, this, this...is this about to be released?

Li Shengli was so excited that he almost pulled out the old Turner's hair, because 3.5 million is undoubtedly a huge sum of money, even higher than most people's player contracts, and in this era and with this kind of benefits, let's talk about it No one believed it.

"You didn't lie to me, did you? West really said that?"

"Nonsense, what are you doing? Let me go!" Old Turner resisted with all his strength and finally managed to hold down Li Shengli who had knocked him down and save his hair.

"Damn, why are you so anxious? 3.5 million is the championship bonus. The Lakers' current lineup can only allow you to live on a minimum living allowance, but don't think about the championship for the time being. It's too difficult."

"Me? Am I only worthy of subsistence allowance?" Li Shengli pointed at himself and asked Old Turner.

"What do you think? The Lakers' lineup is pretty good, but the problem is that the Jazz and Rockets are also strong. Even if the Lakers leave the Western Conference, you may still encounter the Bulls. Do you have the confidence to play them again?"

"Why not?" Li Shengli gritted his teeth, "Damn it, Bulls, Jordan, I have one principle in life. As long as the money is in place and the league is completely destroyed, no one can say it."

"You...you are really..."

"What do you want me to do for you? By the way, remember to lock the door for me later and leave a key. I can't wait to go back to training now. Damn, when I think about having money, I seem to be even more active in training? Let's go. Got it!"

After saying that, Li Shengli ignored Old Turner and rushed out, rushing to the training hall to participate in training.

…

The training hall at this time.

Because it was free time in the morning and he would clock in to work at two o'clock in the afternoon, there were basically no people in the training hall during this time. When Li Shengli walked into the arena, he happened to meet the general manager of the Lakers, Sang Cai Boy West.

"Hi, West, have you had lunch? Do you want to join us?" Li Shengli liked West more and more as he looked at him, and said hello with a grin.

"What are you doing? You want to treat me to fast food with a coupon?" West's face darkened. Although he went to Dallas for an away game and didn't play with the team, it was obvious that he still knew about Fisher's coupon incident, "Okay. Your agent should have told you to play hard this season, we are different from your previous team because we never skimp on financial resources."

"Hehehe, you're so kind! Oh, by the way, why are you here at the training ground?"

"Me? Of course I'm here to visit the class. Also... take a look. Those two people inside are going crazy. You go over and persuade them that it's okay to train hard. We all agree, but there's really no need to be too strict. Just follow the trainer's plan, but..."

"Who are the two people inside?"

"You should have guessed."

"Kobe and Crotty?"

"Yes, I was once a player, and I personally like the efforts of these two people. But no matter how hard you work, there is no need to commit suicide, right? I asked Harris. From last night to now, the two of them have slept with each other for a total of 4 times. Hours, and now they are conducting suicide training inside."

"Is it that exaggerated? I'd better go in and take a look first."

…

Li Shengli has seen players who train hard, including Malone, who works all year round, and himself.

Not to mention the amount of training in a single day, but the key is to ensure long-lasting and uninterrupted physical condition, because all physical indicators have upper limit thresholds, and it is difficult to improve beyond the peak. All you can do is Maintain your condition, and shooting training is relatively simple. As long as you use quantity to ensure quality and cultivate muscle memory, the effect will definitely be there.

As for the suicide training West mentioned? !

Li Shengli was trained by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, so he wasn't too surprised when he saw Kobe and Crotty sweating profusely when they entered the training ground. The only surprise was...the two brothers had diarrhea in the morning and were dying in the afternoon? And Fisher was also there, but unlike Kobe and Crotty's desperate training, he was doing desperate diarrhea.
