Chapter 24 Surprise PY transaction

Sister Tao is about to go to work.

When I opened the door, I saw a tall and big vagabond standing at the door, dressed in rags, disheveled hair, and unshaven beard...

Sister Tao was startled and screamed and was about to close the door.

The homeless man squeezed in and closed the door with his backhand. Before he could speak, he saw Lao Tufeng running out with a kitchen knife:

"Don't be afraid of Taozi, I..."

Sister Tao suddenly turned red, held the homeless man's arm and said with distress:

"My poor little Manman, have you let the rich woman drive out?"

Tu Man was stunned for a moment:

"What rich woman?"

Sister Tao wiped her tears and said angrily:

"Aren't you a rich woman? You don't know how to go back to your family!"

Tu Man smiled bitterly:

"Sister Tao, you have such a big idea. Where can I stay with a rich woman? I worked as a loader and unloader in Port Anchorage, Alaska for three months!"

Lao Tu put down the kitchen knife and asked in confusion:

"Didn't you go to pick up girls? Why did you start working hard again and have someone sold it?"

Tu Man walked on the sofa with all his might, sighing comfortably, and said:

"I haven't picked up girls, I'm going to experience life. I'm afraid you're worried, so I'm going to pick up girls..."

Sister Tao said angrily:

"We're worried, you're going to be a millionaire right away. What life do you experience?"

He walked over, held Tu Man's face and said melancholy:

"Looking at how thin you are, you're all out of shape."

Tu Man dared not refute. Sister Tao said that if she loses weight, she must have lost weight and she is very thin.

Although he was clearly strong, it didn't matter.

It’s better to change the topic quickly!

"Sister Tao, which team did you sign me into?"

When it comes to signing a contract, Tao Jie immediately became energetic and said with a gaze:

"No sign!"

Tu Man said in surprise:

"I didn't sign you what a millionaire you said?"

Sister Tao said proudly:

"If I don't hang them, how can I get such a good market? Now, except for the Orlando Magic, other teams have quoted several rounds of prices. Now it's a seller's market, and the contracts are almost the same, it depends on which team you like!"

The Orlando Magic already has Warcraft Dwight Howard, known as the No. 1 center in the league, and is the only team that does not need to greed for the body of the man.

Tu Man blurted out:

"I like the sun!"

Sister Tao smiled and said:

"So well-behaved. I like the sun too. How close is it to us!"

Tu Man was missing for three months, and Tao Jie refused to let go. The 29 teams, including the Suns, were very passive and had to keep increasing prices.

But the contract has a ceiling, and it always exceeds the maximum salary.

That day, James Dolan rashly called out a three-year, 50 million contract to anger Robert Savor.

In fact, Tu Man can't get so much.

The NBA league's salary cap next season is $58 million, and Tuman's starting salary can get a maximum salary cap of 25%, which is only $14.5 million.

Tuman has zero age and has nothing to do with bird rights. His salary can only increase at 8% per year. If he only signs for three years, the maximum amount of the contract will be only US$47 million.

Of course, it is different to add years.

However, in three years, Tuman can use bird rights, so he will not increase his age!

Robert Savor fans were roasted on the fire. As soon as Sister Tao let go, she immediately sent Lance Blanks to negotiate.

Now all teams offer a maximum salary, and the Suns don’t give it to them, and there are 28 general managers rushing to give it to them. The contract amount is no longer negotiated, and the differences are on the contract term.

The Suns want to sign a 22 contract similar to No. 1 pick John Wall, with guaranteed in the first two years and team options in the next two years.

But Sister Tao disagreed. Her intention was to sign a 21 contract, which was also guaranteed in the first two years, but the third year was the player option, so the contract could be broken at any time.

Lance Blanks could see that Tao Jie and Tu Man were both quite confident and believed that Tu Man would definitely be able to fight. After breaking out of the contract in the third year, he would still be robbed by the entire league!

However, Tu Man does have such capital. He is very self-disciplined and looks much more powerful than three months ago. He is a whole person who is stronger and seems to have grown taller?

This is good news, but it will be bad news if it is spread.

You must cut the mess quickly!

In the end, Tao Jie took a step back in the contract amount, and the two parties reached a three-year contract of $45 million, which was guaranteed in the first two years, and the third year was the player option.

Although he didn't win the team option, the total contract amount was reduced by two million. Robert Savor was very satisfied. He could call and mock James Dolan:

"See, it's not easy to use money. Tu Man takes the initiative to cut his salary and stay in the sun!"

On October 22, the Phoenix Sun, which was breathtaking and raised its eyebrows, held a massive press conference at the National Airline Center Arena, announcing that it had successfully signed a contract with Tuman. The three-month battle for Tuman came to an end.

Team owner Robert Savor personally led head coach Alvin Gentry, general manager Lance Blanks, team chairman Ron Barbie, and team leader Steve Nash to attend and showcase Tuman's No. 5 jersey.

Before the reporter asked a question, in order to make other teams even more jealous, Robert Savor of Love released the physical test data of Tuman:

Height of shoes: 213 cm

Naked feet height: 210 cm

Arm-span: 218 cm

Weight: 116 kg

Standing touch height: 278 cm

Bouncing in place: 90 cm

Running and jumping: 106 cm

185 lbs bench press: 22 times

Four points move (seconds): 10.95

Three quarters of the sprint time (seconds): 3.18

Robert Savor got the results he wanted, and the other 28 teams were sore.

Compared with Dwight Howard in 2004 and Greg Oden in 2007, Tuman was only slightly inferior in arm span, and other data were almost the same or better.

Especially the bounce is simply perverted. Although Tu Man has shown his extraordinary bounce and stagnation in the summer league, everyone was still shocked as soon as the data came out:

Are you sure this kid is not a defender?

Howard is already the "No. 1 center in the league". Although Oden has been seriously injured for years, he is still considered to be "choose 10,000 more times, and he is still the No. 1 pick"!

Similar height and weight, as well as such bounce and speed, not to mention that he has proved himself in the summer league, Tu Man's future is simply unimaginable!

As long as he is not as cruel as Oden...

Everyone thought of Tu Man's "mediocre" talent show report.

Tu Man's changes can be seen from the naked eye. Compared with three months ago, he is much bigger and his height has increased significantly. It is understandable to think that he is only 18 years old and is still developing.

But the jump was so much different. Did he jump in a shot put during the trial?

Let's hang the scout who provides draft information to death. Does he have a grudge against Tu Man or a grudge against the entire league?

The black-hearted reporter has thought of another possibility:

"Tu Man, was your draft report intentionally faked? Is it because you have any ulterior py deals with the Phoenix Suns so that you can escape the rookie contract restrictions and get the maximum salary directly?"
