In the center of the large ring, the Mavericks team logo carved with blue stones is embedded in the ring body. On the side of the ring, dozens of diamonds pieced together form the word "yi". On the other side, "1" is pieced together, which represents Yiyang's jersey number.

Although a beautiful NBA championship ring is more suitable for men to wear, Vignali is still very happy that Yiyang actually kept his promise.

"Viger, have the invitations been sent out?" Yiyang walked into the room and saw Vignali admiring the ring, and hugged this woman who was surrounded by great happiness from behind.

"I've already sent it out, I really can't wait." Vignali turned her head and kissed Yiyang.

Half a month has passed since Yiyang proposed to Vignali on July 10th. In the past half month, the NBA free agent market has been extremely exciting. But these things have nothing to do with Yiyang.

For half a month, Yiyang and Vignali were not idle. He and Vignali, who was now his fiancée, went to Italy and chose a place for their wedding in Venice.

Venice is a breathtakingly beautiful city filled with art and elegance. Whether you want to get married on a marble balcony overlooking the city's royal blue lagoon and watch the flowers pour down, or keep things elegant and simple and step into one of the onion-topped churches that grace the city. You can even glide in the water on a gondola inlaid with gold lace. When the boat passes under the stone arch bridge, the tourists in the nearby boats will send you beautiful blessings. You can all enjoy these things in this The city on the water is satisfied.

When the pleasant wedding ceremony is over, a Venetian-style masquerade ball can be held to celebrate the wedding. An exotic waltz dance is staged in the banquet hall illuminated by chandeliers. During your leisure time, you can overlook the ships and sparkling lights passing by on the canal...

It was an Italian-style wedding. Just thinking about the scene on that day made Vignali feel extremely romantic. After that, Yiyang and Vignali went around the world to choose a wedding dress, high heels, and a brand new diamond ring.

Because in Italian weddings, women cannot wear any gold jewelry. According to Italians, wearing gold jewelry on your wedding day will only bring misfortune. Unfortunately, championship rings are made of gold.

But even without this custom, Yiyang would buy a new ring for Vignali. Although this championship ring was made by myself, it was spent with Cuban's money. It was regarded as a wedding gift from the boss to Yiyang and Vignali.

Yiyang believes that he should also spend his own money to buy a ring to express his feelings.

Of course, a wedding cannot be without the blessings of relatives and friends. Yiyang and Vignali planned to hold a wedding at the end of September, so they also postponed many business activities. Due to the tight schedule and the wedding being held in Italy, they had to notify everyone two months in advance to give everyone room to make arrangements.

Just now, Vignali has sent out all the invitations, which means that they are one step closer to the completion of the wedding.

Two months later, it promised to be a sweet Italian night.

"Okay, let's go to Cuban's office. It's very rude to be late." Vignali stood up from the bed and straightened Yiyang's suit. Yiyang would definitely not wear a suit when going out unless he was going to a very serious and formal occasion.

Yiyang felt a little incredible when he thought about the people he was going to see later.

"Well, give me his invitation. It would be better for me to hand it to him in person later."

"Okay," Vignali picked up a red envelope from the dressing table and put it in the inner pocket of Yiyang's suit. "Come back early. I'll wait for you at home to have dinner."

"Okay, then I'm going out,

Vignali. "

"Well, be careful on the road, husband~"

Hearing Vignali call him that, Yiyang suddenly blushed. Although the two of them are already very close, they are still somewhat uncomfortable with calling each other this suddenly.

After going out, Yiyang got into the car happily. 2014 was simply perfect for him, so perfect that it was almost unbelievable. But it would be even more incredible if this matter is negotiated later!

Just a few days ago, Nowitzki voluntarily took a salary cut and signed a three-year contract with the Mavericks for only $2,500. This means that Dirk's salary next season will be less than $8 million. Coupled with the expiration of Marion's five-year contract worth $39 million, the Mavericks still have tens of millions of dollars to operate even with Iguodala and Yiyang's two big contracts.

Don't underestimate Marion's contract. Although Marion didn't play much last season, his annual salary was as high as US$9.23 million! After Marion's contract expired this summer, the pressure on the Mavericks was instantly reduced.

With tens of millions of dollars in maneuverability, this is enough for Cuban to sign another well-known star. Initially, he targeted Chandler Parsons, who was having a smooth season with the Rockets. But because Parsons' position overlapped with Iguodala's, Cuban gave up this opportunity.

At this juncture, an opportunity suddenly comes!

Wade slumped on the sofa, big bags under his eyes. In the dark and huge living room, the TV screen became the only light source.

Some late-night show was playing on the TV, but it was obvious that his attention was not on it.

Wade looked at his phone. It was already one o'clock in the morning, but he still didn't feel sleepy.

Half a month ago, LeBron James signed a contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers, which meant that the era of the Heat's Big Three was completely over.

Although James left, Wade didn't blame him. LeBron is born to pursue glory. Obviously, with his current physical condition, he can no longer help, and LeBron's hope of winning the championship is slim. So for LeBron's departure, Wade is more of a blessing.

After this, a week ago, Pat Riley gave Bosh a five-year maximum salary contract worth $11.8 billion, keeping this giant on the East Coast. Wade is very happy, at least, not everyone will leave.

But who would have thought

Wade didn't think anymore, but got up from the sofa, picked up the basketball, and walked out of the house. At one o'clock in the morning, he suddenly wanted to play basketball.

※※※

There are a lot of beach courts in Miami. After all, these two things are as common in Miami as football fields are in England.

An old man with a mustache and an old yellow suit got out of the taxi. He glanced towards the court, and a tall figure was clearly visible.

The black sweatshirt has a high collar and a hat that almost covers his entire face. But even without looking at his face, the man with the mustache knows who he is.

The guy in the sweatshirt will always make a few triple-threat steps outside the three-point line, and then suddenly accelerate and rush into the paint. Finally, he turned beautifully in the three-second zone and made a layup.

He repeated this action over and over again, although his speed no longer seemed so amazing.

The mustachioed man shook his head and approached the basketball court. On the field, the guy in a sweatshirt obviously heard the noise and stopped what he was doing.

"Don't stop, keep going. God, it's two o'clock in the morning in Miami. If I record this, you will surpass Kobe, Dwayne." The mustached man joked.

"I'm sorry, Henry, for calling you over so late." Wade smiled and walked up to hug the man with the mustache named Henry.

Henry Thomas, a well-known manager in the league. When the Heat's Big Three were able to get together, Thomas was indispensable. At the same time, he is also Wade's boss. If it weren't for him, this black boy who almost went astray on the streets of Chicago might not have been able to become an NBA superstar.

"I rushed over as soon as I got the call. I know what you are worried about, Dwayne. Give me some time so I can continue to negotiate with Riley." Henry sat on the sidelines and sighed.

After Pat Riley offered Bosh a maximum-salary contract, the cunning Heat general manager actually offered Wade a two-year, $16.5 million contract two days later!

At that time, Wade and Henry Thomas were stunned. He is Dwyane Wade, the symbol of the city of Miami and the soul of the Heat! However, even if Pat Riley refused to give him a maximum salary, he actually offered a humiliating price of 16.5 million for two years!

You know, Riley offered Luol Dundu a price of 20 million for 2 years! Is it possible that in his eyes, Wade is not as good as Luol Deng? ?

In the end, the negotiations naturally broke up on bad terms. Although Riley promised to give Wade a new offer, the incident still hurt Wade greatly.

Loyalty, this thing is worthless!

Wade's performance in this season's finals is indeed very poor, and his knees have indeed become increasingly difficult to bear the heavy load. But he believes that he is not cheap enough yet.

In fact, money is not the most important thing. Wade is even willing to take a voluntary pay cut if necessary, just like Dirk and Duncan did.

The important thing is that Wade didn't feel the respect Riley gave him.

He knows very well that after LeBron leaves, the Heat need a brand new core. Riley needed room to maneuver, and he needed to save every penny. But this guy shouldn't save on Wade.

"I was so stupid and short-sighted before that I had my meniscus removed. Otherwise, I wouldn't be suffering from constant injuries now." Wade said to himself as he broke through.

"You're already a great athlete, Dwayne."

"I know, but I think I should be able to do better." Thinking of his own powerlessness in this year's finals, Wade gritted his teeth!

"Don't think about those damn things, Dwayne. It's not your fault, it's that guy Pat Riley who doesn't know how to respect people."

Wade said nothing and continued to sweat on the court in the early morning.

The two of them were silent for a long time, neither of them knew what to say. Over the years, they have dedicated their lives to the Heat and Miami. But in the end, he ended up being despised.

He's old, he's no longer at his peak, he can't dominate the game. As a result, this city and this team also began to want to abandon him.

Wade doesn't care what the second offer from Riley is now. It's like a person has humiliated you and spit in your face, but then immediately goes back to hug you. Can you forgive him so easily? ?

"Actually, Dwayne." After a long time, Henry finally spoke. “I also received an interesting offer.”

"Interesting offer?" Wade stopped, he was already sweating profusely. The word "interesting" is not often used to describe an offer.

"Yes, an interesting offer."

Yiyang put the invitation into the inner pocket of his suit and stood at the door of Riley's office.

He didn't rush to knock on the door, but took a deep breath and adjusted his suit again.

Yiyang has never done anything like this in the four years since he joined the Mavericks. It's normal for a star player to help his team recruit strong players. But Yiyang, who is not good at talking, has never done this.

But this guy who came today is definitely worth a trip to Yiyang. Even if he doesn't succeed in the end, Yiyang should pay a visit to express his respect.

Zai touched his chest again to confirm that the invitation was not lost. Then, there was finally a knock on the door of Cuban’s office.

"Please come in." Cuban's voice jumped into Yiyang's ears through the wooden door.

Yiyang pushed the door open and walked in. Cuban was sitting behind his desk. When he saw it was Yiyang, the fat boss stood up politely.

At the same time, the man sitting in front of the desk with his back to Yiyang also turned sideways and stood up. After seeing that it was Yiyang, the man showed a charming smile.

"Welcome to Dallas, Dwayne."

Yiyang walked up and shook hands with Wade cordially.
