NBA: Peak Thompson starts

….

In general, Schwartz communicated with Lin Tao to the maximum extent according to the information he had.

His idea of Lin Tao’s career design is more stable, that is, the average rookie starts from a bench or role player, goes smoothly along the way, and becomes an All-Star or team boss after ending his rookie contract, so as to get a big contract.

This is also the regular growth route of a rookie.

Putting aside his BUG-level future vision, in Lin Tao’s opinion, Schwartz has indeed done enough professionalism in many places.

There were just some ideas he needed to highlight to Schwartz.

“Jeff, you have a good idea, I think my development path may be different, I don’t want to stay and play with superstars, and I’m not ready to play as a role player in my rookie career.” Lin Tao said seriously.

Lin Tao did not tell Schwartz that he wanted to be the boss from the beginning, he had All-Star level strength, and many things needed to be proved by the game on the field.

He just said he didn’t want to play role players as a rookie.

Hearing Lin Tao’s words, Schwartz smiled.

What a confident guy.

Powerful people are self-confident.

People without strength are fools to be confident.

Schwartz felt that Lin Tao would be the kind of person who was awesome.

….

In the end, Lin Tao verbally agreed to sign the brokerage contract, and he paid Schwartz the same commission as Love’s, which was 2.85%.

The commission for other endorsement contracts is 6%.

Schwartz gave Lin Tao a high pick, and the minimum target was the first round.

“It’s not as good as the first pick in the second round.” Lin Tao jokingly shook hands with Schwartz and laughed.

“Haha, of course.” Schwartz also laughed.

The first round of contracts will be guaranteed, the second round will be unguaranteed and shorter, but the second contract will have more flexibility.

The main thing is whether Lin Tao has the ability to get a second contract worth more than the first round pick two or three years later.

Of course, Lin Tao himself is confident.

After signing the contract with Lin Tao, Schwartz quickly began to help Lin Tao start preparing for the draft.

On the fifth day of signing the contract, Schwartz held a press conference for Lin Tao.

MOP is going to hold a press conference at this time, and there is no doubt that there is only one purpose.

There are many media who hear about it.

Lin Tao, who won 60+ in the final and got the MOP, is still the focus of national attention.

Facing the cameras of a group of reporters, Lin Tao showed his trademark smile: “NBA is my dream since childhood, and after a wonderful freshman season, I feel that it is time to bring my talent to the NBA!! ”

Lin Tao officially announced his participation in the NBA Draft!

On the night of the announcement of his candidacy.

Schwartz called Lin Tao on the phone.

He received offers from three sneaker companies: Anta, Adidas, and Jordan.

Anta is offering $8 million for 4 years.

Adidas is $6 million for 3 years.

Nike’s Jordan offers $10 million for 4 years.

Schwartz gave the decision to Lin Tao.

“These amounts are too small, I know that Adi gave Ross an annual salary of more than 10 million, and even Jordan gave Russell a higher price than this.”

Schwartz said: “Sneaker contracts have a lot of restrictive conditions, and it is not so easy to get the full amount, such as Russell’s contract, he has to meet the requirement of starting more than 60 games in his rookie period, and your side is so low mainly because there are too few games, they may not be very optimistic about you. ”

Lin Tao said: “Wait a minute, it’s not appropriate to talk about this now.” ”

Lin Tao has the strength of the All-Star level, and the sneaker contract is too important, he will not make a rash decision, otherwise the loss will be too great.

When Lin Tao was about to sleep.

Lin Tao’s parents called Lin Tao.

The parents of the two lives are the same, which is not much different, and they are very concerned about their son’s professional future.

Lin’s father opened a sports equipment company, and Lin’s mother is an executive of a listed company, and the two are very busy at work.

This was also the first time Lin Tao had spoken to them on the phone since he returned.

“Xiaotao, you make me and your father feel very proud!”

In the company, Mother Lin is a strong woman, but when Mother Lin faces Lin Tao, she will consciously lower her tone when she speaks.

“You have to take good care of yourself over there!”

“Hmm!”

“If you meet a good girl, pursue it, don’t always wait to choose, parents are very tolerant, girls from any country can be, don’t be prejudiced against white girls, black girls, they are sometimes cute.”

“Got it.”

The old mother is very wordy, and Lin Tao is constantly coping.

Compared with his mother’s verbosity, Lin’s father spoke very succinctly: “Play well, strive to enter the NBA, enter the national team in the future, and win glory for the country!” ”

“It will.”

“Xiaotao, if you don’t have enough money, tell your mother.”

“Enough, enough, the agent is just ready to talk to me about endorsements, there is no shortage of money, and there will be a lot of money in the NBA in the future.”

Dad Lin is a very patriotic old fan, and Lin Tao’s interest in basketball also stems from his father.

Listening to his parents’ chattering words, although Lin Tao felt annoyed, he still maintained patience.

Mature in his heart, he knows very well that these two are the people who care about themselves the most in this world.

After chatting for about an hour.

Lin Tao hung up the phone.

……

Lying on the bed, Lin Tao felt a little pressure.

NBA, say far is not far, say near is not close!
