Basketball: I'm really a center
Chapter 23
While the two were talking, they came to the Suns management and walked straight into the office of manager Lance.
At this time,
Lance and coach Gentry were already waiting in the office.
""Su Bai, you are finally here."
Lance smiled and welcomed them in. Su Bai and Austin sat on the sofa, Lance and Gentry sat on the sofa opposite, and there were several documents and tea on the table in the middle.
"I know that recently all the major teams in the league have gone crazy to sign Su Bai, and his strength is enough to make the entire league crazy.
So.
Let me tell you directly, what is the highest offer you are currently looking for?"
Lance said straight to the point
"Well..."
Austin looked at Su Bai and said,"We like the Bulls' offer, 2 years, $16 million, Su Bai + Rose, I think the Bulls will have the strength to win the championship.""
"Indeed."
Gentry nodded and said,"From what we know about the offers, the Bulls are indeed the best, and......If Su Bai goes there and cooperates with Rose, the Bulls will become even stronger."
At this point, his face became obviously ugly, and he immediately looked at Lance and gave him the right to speak.
Unexpectedly, Lance was calm and asked in a confirming tone:"Su Bai, Mr. Austin, are you sure this is the final offer?!"
"Yeah."
Austin nodded.
""Okay."
Lance nodded slightly, pretending to think, and after a while, he said in a deep voice:"I promised before that I would give Su Bai a satisfactory offer.
So, our Suns offer is: 24 million US dollars for 2 years."
""Buzz!"
Austin's pupils suddenly dilated when he heard the offer.
24 million for 2 years, 12 million dollars a year, what does this mean?
It's more than twice the annual salary of this year's No. 1 draft pick, and the time is only 2 years. In other words, in 2 years, Su Bai will be able to sign a higher maximum salary.
This offer...Too high.
As a well-known agent, Austin has seen many high-paying signings, but he was still shocked by Lance's offer to Su Bai today.
However,
Lance's next words shocked him again.
"Su Bai, the contract is 24 million for 2 years, and it is 1+1. The second year is a player option. In other words, as long as you play up to your value this year, you will get a better super-max contract next year. And we are not afraid of you leaving, because......Next year, we will still use the best offer to keep you. This is our attitude and our trust in you."
Lance said seriously.
Austin was excited. He wanted to sign the contract immediately. It must be said that this contract was indeed a sky-high price for a rookie.
But Su Bai remained calm and asked,"Mr. Lance, can I ask you a question?"
"certainly"
"I think you should also know that there have been rumors in the league recently that I only have the ability to shoot mid-range shots, and once I am targeted defensively, I will have nothing. Aren’t you afraid?"
"Hahaha!"
Lance laughed when he heard it,"Afraid? Why should I be afraid? What do a bunch of little brats know? Just with your center's body and super guard talent, you are enough to match this offer.
As long as this talent is there.
Even if you don't even have a mid-range shot, I am willing to wait for you to grow up, and I believe that you will definitely grow into an epoch-making super center! It
's just......I wonder if you are willing to give me a chance to witness this moment?"
"Of course."
After hearing this, Su Bai finally nodded happily.
"So you agree?!"
Lance was shocked. Su Bai smiled and said,"If such a good contract and a manager who believes in me can't impress me, then I, a rookie, am too ambitious."
""Haha!"
Lance was so happy.
So far,
Su Bai stayed with the Suns and signed a 2-year, 24 million US dollar, 1+1 sky-high contract with the Suns.
When Austin was handling the contract details, Su Bai said to Lance:"Manager Lance, I have a favor to ask you."
"What's going on?"
Lance asked.
"I hope you can sign Stephen Curry from the Warriors, I think......The Suns' run-and-gun tactics need players like him"
"Oh?"
Lance was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said,"Stephen has three-pointers, he is indeed suitable for running and gunning. Since you asked, if there is a chance, I will try my best."
"Thank you."
Su Bai smiled and nodded.
As soon as the contract was signed, the Suns couldn't wait to announce on Twitter that they had renewed the contract with rookie Su Bai and made the contract offer public.
For a time, it caused an uproar.
"Oh my god!"
"Did I read that right? 24 million dollars for 2 years, 12 million dollars for one year, and a 1+1 contract? What is the Suns doing? Is this crazy?"
"My God, 12 million a year, what does that mean?"
"Well...If I remember correctly, Steve Nash of the Suns only has an annual salary of 10 million this year"
"Also, among the Heat's"Big Three", LeBron James makes $14.5 million, Bosh makes $14.5 million, and Wade makes $14.2 million. The Celtics' Pierce makes $13.8 million, the Spurs' Parker makes $13.5 million, Ginobili makes only $11.8 million, and the Warriors' star player, Monta Ellis, makes only $11 million."
"Hiss! Su Bai's one-year salary of $12 million means that as a rookie, his ability has surpassed Monta Ellis, Ginobili, Pierce, and the Big Three of the Heat."?!"
"No, no, no, LeBron, Wade, and Bosh all took pay cuts to some extent."
"Indeed, but even so, Su Bai has reached the level of a star player and even a team leader as a rookie, which is too amazing."
"correct!"
"Su Bai is too fierce, the sun is too crazy!"
"Haha, I don't know what the manager of Lance was thinking. It's crazy to give such a big offer to a rookie center who can only shoot mid-range shots."
"Yes, it's still a 1+1 contract. If Su Bai doesn't play well, the 12 million will go down the drain. If he plays well, he can just walk away tomorrow, and the Suns will suffer a huge loss."
"I don’t understand!"
"What Su Bai only has mid-range shots, what will run away in the future, these are all later, I just think......This 12 million annual salary is too abnormal....I'm so envious"
"I am also extremely envious. Others earn tens of millions of yuan a year at the age of 18. I am also 18 years old this year, working as a bricklayer at a construction site, and only check Twitter after get off work....No more words, all tears"
"Haha, I'm not envious. After all, Su Bai's strength is there, and the team management's thoughts are definitely not something we can guess.
However,
I am now curious about what this year's No. 1 pick Wall thinks when he sees Su Bai get a contract that is more than twice his salary?!"
"Haha, it must be very uncomfortable."
Late at night
, Twitter was abuzz with the Suns' offer. While fans were envious, many still felt that the offer was too high.
Even some team executives felt it was too high.
In response to this, the manager of Reims said in an interview with reporters the next day:"With money, you can do whatever you want!"
