I feel hot in the NBA

Chapter 7 Gordon Hayward's Call
After the interview, Lin Yang went back to the apartment he rented - the house was not too big, with two bedrooms, one living room and a small study.

The rookie contract Lin Yang signed with the Dallas Mavericks is a 3 plus 1 contract commonly used by rookies. The first three years are fully guaranteed, and the fourth year is a team option.

For example, Yi Jianlian was executed by the Wizards for the fourth year of his contract this year.

But the management of the Wizards has not been in contact with Dan Fagan for a long time.

Obviously there was no intention of making an appointment.

In addition, the goal of the Wizards this year is to continue to perform poorly, and it is very likely that Yi Jianlian stayed for cheap labor.

Therefore, many experts, including domestic media, believe that Yi Jianlian is likely to leave the NBA after this season.

Lin Yang's first-year contract is worth 84 yuan, but this is the total amount before tax. After paying taxes, the money he gets is probably less than 50 yuan.

And of the 50, 3% has to go to his agent Austin Brown.

It should be enough to buy a smaller apartment with such a little money left over, but he really didn't dare to buy a house, he could only rent it, and he didn't dare to rent this house for too long, only for half a year.

When the Mavericks closed the training camp before, he felt that Rick Carlisle was not very interested in him. In order to avoid a sudden trade and leave Dallas, he would have to fight with the landlord at that time, so he simply did not rent for a long time.

However, judging from Rick Carlisle's attitude towards him today, he may be able to discuss with the landlord to extend the lease time.

He took a few carrots and cucumbers from the refrigerator and threw them into the juicer. After pressing the switch and stirring, Lin Yang walked out of the kitchen holding a glass full of vegetable juice in a short while, and headed for his study.

"Are you flying to Utah tomorrow? Hey, we're going to meet you so soon?"

Sitting in front of the computer, Lin Yang took out his mobile phone and glanced at the reminder on the mobile notepad. After the NBA officially announced the new season's schedule, he recorded the Mavericks' entire season's schedule in the mobile notepad.

It is a habit he has developed since he was a child to write down his own itinerary.

"Are you going to see Gordon again?"

Gordon Hayward is Lin Yang's teammate at Butler University. Although both of them are swingmen, there is no hostile relationship between them, because the head coach Stevens likes to put them on the court together.

And in this draft, except for him and Hayward, other players from Butler University either did not participate in the draft or were not selected, and only two of them entered the league.

Coupled with the fact that Butler University was an upstart in the NCAA after Stevens took office, this also made it difficult for Butler University to have players who could reach the NBA before 2010.

The combination of so many reasons made the contact between Lin Yang and Gordon Hayward more frequent than in college.

——Lin, damn it, I didn't expect to meet you so soon, are you watching my video now?Hey, don't you take it so seriously, it's just a preseason game!How about this, as long as you promise me not to be so serious, when you come, I will treat you well!
No, as soon as he thought of this guy, Gordon Hayward sent a message.

Between the lines revealed his familiarity with Lin Yang.

Lin Yang had indeed just opened the video of Butler University's Sweet [-] match in March this year. He had watched this game several times before, but this time he watched it again, but his eyes were focused on Gordon Hayward.

Every player has his style of play, whether it is formed consciously or unconsciously, but these all exist. Through the analysis of video recordings of more than a dozen or even dozens of games, we can always find some small habits or even weaknesses that can be used by this player.

Originally, this was the work of a videographer. Stevens, the head coach of Linyang University, made his debut as a videographer. This also allowed him to always be surprisingly successful when arranging targeted tactics. The reason is that he can always find some weaknesses in the core of the opponent's team that can be used to target.

Lin Yang was once Stevens' most dependent assistant when he was in college. Every time he watched videos, he would take Lin Yang with him. This made Lin Yang's ability in watching videos better than that of ordinary videographers.

The Mavericks have a dedicated trainer, and Lin Yang didn’t need to watch the video by himself originally, but this group of professionals is not as capable as Stevens in this area, nor is it as good as Lin Yang. Lin Yang suffered a loss in this area during the summer league, so after returning from the summer league, he started to watch the video and analyze his opponents again.

Anyway, this is something that has become a habit, and Lin Yang will not find it troublesome.

-Relax Gordon, I'm not watching tape, and besides, I don't think Utah has more life than Dallas!

The city of Utah is just like the style of play shown by the Utah Jazz, with a strict eye, coupled with the depression caused by the high altitude...

In short, Lin Yang doesn't like Utah.

Not long after the text message was sent, Hayward replied, but it was not a text message, but a call. Lin Yang pressed the pause of the video before answering the call.

"What are you doing?" Hayward's voice sounded like that of a housewife catching rape.

"I'm getting ready for bed!"

"Maybe we can video call?"

"Sorry, I don't want to. At this time, this is not a good proposal!" Lin Yang glanced at the time, it was almost 12 o'clock in the morning, and it was somewhat weird for two men to video chat at this time.

Lin Yang chose to refuse.

"You're just watching the video, aren't you!" Hayward's tone became extremely certain.

"Okay! But it's not preparing for the matchup that we might have, I'm just reliving our great journey this March, you know, I'm always a nostalgic person!"

"OMG, you shouldn't have treated me like this, you should know, my experience so far is terrible, you..." Heyward became anxious when he heard that Lin Yang was really watching the video.

He is also a direct disciple of Stevens, how could he not know about Lin Yang's ability!

"OK, OK, stop for a second!" Lin Yang was listening to Gordon Hayward's complaints, when the penguin in the lower right corner of the computer suddenly turned into a shaking avatar, and there was a line prompting "Lin Lu invites you to video chat"

"I understand that you have some dissatisfaction. You can vent this when I arrive in Utah tomorrow! Now, if there are no more important things, then I will hang up first!"

"Oh, No, I just started to say, you can't be so unfeeling, be careful that I reveal the matter of Tamara's pursuit of you, I took a photo of the ambiguous text message she sent you!"

"Then you have to be prepared to be scolded by your head coach tomorrow!"

"Oh~, you don't..."

Gordon Hayward was about to say something, but Lin Yang had already hung up the phone. Thinking about the appearance of Gordon Hayward yelling at him for hanging up the phone so quickly, Lin Yang also smiled helplessly. He was very familiar with the latter. If he didn't hang up the phone so simply, the latter would be inked until dawn.

There is no way, Gordon Hayward's career so far is a bit too far from what he thought when he was in college, and he urgently needs to find someone to talk to, it is the kind of depression that he still can't fully vent after ten times.

Lin Yang has already been fooled twice, and he cannot be fooled a third time.

Putting down his phone, he clicked on Lin Lu's video invitation in the lower right corner.

The avatar has been flashing for a while.

While clicking on it, Lin Yang subconsciously leaned back.

"What are you doing? It's so slow to answer the video!"

As soon as the connection was made, before Lin Yang could see his face clearly, there was a very impatient woman complaining, the voice was loud, fortunately Lin Yang had prepared in advance.

　The contract was sent out, and starting today, the book is updated twice a day, this is the first update, and there will be another update in the afternoon.
