In the next two games, Yang Mo still only played in the first half, averaging 18 points and 9 rebounds in each game, which was particularly efficient. // High-speed update //.
However, Isiah Thomas is still not particularly satisfied. He feels that although Yang Mo has found his own breakthrough rhythm and effectively combined his scoring methods. But... in terms of rhythm control and timing,
There is always something lacking, which leads to some restraints in on-the-spot performance.
Everything requires a process. Isiah Thomas has too high expectations for Yang Mo. Although his progress has been extraordinary, he subconsciously regards Yang Mo as a genius even better than Michael Jordan.
, he had already unconsciously determined that Yang Mo should do everything in one step. Unfortunately, Yang Mo was not a genius yet, he also needed a process.
When Isiah Thomas felt that Yang Mo was not perfect enough, Pat Riley called Yang Mo to his office. He planned to talk to Yang Mo about the contract. Because Lu Xueman took advantage of the loopholes in the contract and changed the three-year contract.
The contract is set to jump once a year, which has never happened before in the history of rookies. The most it can be is 2+2 or 2+1, and only Lu Xueman can jump after one year. Although it is unreasonable, it has legal effect.
.
The reason why Lu Xueman took advantage of this loophole was because Pat Riley underestimated Yang Mo's potential. If he had known that Yang Mo could grow to this point in one year, he would not have agreed to such a contract even if he were killed.
A four-year, 20 million-dollar top rookie contract locked up the first four years of Yang Mo's career. Why is there any need to be anxious now?
When Yang Mo entered the office, Pat Riley did not get into the topic of contract renewal directly, but said with a smile: "Yang, I really can't believe how green you looked when you first came to our training facility for a trial.
At that time, you were exuding a sense of restraint and nervousness, and I almost asked you to leave the training hall."
"Haha." Yang Mo smiled slightly and did not speak, but waited for Pat Riley to continue.
"Look at you now, averaging 19.3 points, 11.3 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game. This is the best rookie data in the past few years. And you have become a super-yang, entered Hollywood, and have so many female fans.
Circle the earth three or four times. No matter how beautiful the American dream we weave is inferior to what you have experienced this year."
Regarding Pat Riley's words, Yang Mo just laughed and said with a smile: "I also think it's a bit too dreamy."
"Philosophers say that life is like a dream. I think your dream is too exciting." Pat Riley sighed with emotion, and then asked: "A year ago, could you have expected what you will be like today?"
Achievement?"
"No." Yang Mo shook his head and replied very sincerely.
Pat Riley laughed and said casually: "Then why did you make the rookie contract a once-a-year option?"
Although Pat Riley wanted to pretend to ask casually, but Yang Mo understood immediately after hearing this, and said: "The playoffs are not over yet, let's not talk about the contract for now."
When Yang Mo said this, Pat Riley's heart suddenly trembled. Is this a tactful rejection? Does it mean that he is not going to stay in Miami next season? If he plans to stay in Miami, he must nod.
Promised.
With this thought in his mind, he immediately thought of the business issue between Dwyane Wade and Yang Mo. So, he quickly asked: "Actually, our coaching staff has already started working on the issue of your coexistence with Dwyane.
We are making adjustments. Next season we will make more open offensive adjustments. Regarding the staffing of other positions, we will also make substantial adjustments. Our goal is the championship. I feel that with the cooperation of you and Dwyane, we will make adjustments.
With hard work, we will definitely be able to win the championship within three years.”
Pat Riley threw out this dual-core theory. Yang Mo nodded after hearing this, but he had no intention of staying. Because in his opinion, the so-called dual-core is not as stable as the three-core, not to mention the outside line.
Dual core. Moreover, he had already told Wade that he was leaving. If he stayed, it would only cause a fission in the beautiful friendship between the two.
Seeing that Yang Mo just nodded without saying a word, Pat Riley scratched his head subconsciously. Even he, who is known as a divine fortune teller, couldn't understand Yang Mo's attitude at all. Was he agreeing or rejecting?
Seeing Pat Riley scratching his head, Yang Mo stood up in order to avoid continuing on this issue and said: "Sir, I'm going to train first. I'm going to Cleveland tomorrow. I have to prepare well and strive to do my best."
Get your first victory.”
There was no reason to refuse Yang Mo's words. Pat Riley could only smile and nod: "Well, okay. Relax, don't be too nervous."
"I will." Yang Mo also smiled and waved to him, then quickly walked out of the office.
After Yang Mo walked out, Pat Riley fell into deep thought. He was really in a difficult situation now, because Yang Mo's attitude toward him was more like unwillingness to renew the contract, and fundamentally, everyone knew that there was no room for two tigers in one mountain. Now Yang Mo
Mo's playing style is becoming more and more similar to Wade's, and sooner or later the two will have a battle for the ball. Wade is not a person who is particularly good at passing the ball, and Yang Mo is a person who cannot pass the ball at all. The two must be compatible.
, it’s simply harder than climbing to the sky.
Therefore, the choice before Pat Riley now, he can only reluctantly give up one. However, on the left is a veteran of the team who is at his peak, and on the right is a super popular rookie who is rising rapidly. This is worse than bear paws and shark fins.
It makes it difficult to decide.
This choice is too painful, no matter which one he chooses, it will make him feel like a knife has been cut in his heart.
Therefore, he decided to wait until the playoffs are over before making any plans, and the playoff games will become his most important observation point.
In fact, the reason why Yang Mo chose this time not to tell Pat Riley about his decision was because he was afraid of affecting the morale of the team. Now, how can he mess up his position when the opponent bullies him? Now is the time to speak out unanimously!
Therefore, before setting off, Yang Mo, who had been silent for a long time, finally issued a victory declaration that shocked the world: "The day after tomorrow is my first time participating in the playoffs. I don't want my first playoff game to be marked as a failure.
.So, sorry, Cleveland, the victory belongs to me!"
When the second-leading team in the Eastern Conference, eighth in the Eastern Conference, said to the first-leading team in the Eastern Conference in the playoffs, I am determined to win. It felt like an ant stretched out its thigh to trip up the elephant. If it were anyone else, others would definitely think so.
He was bragging, or talking arrogantly and without thinking. However, Super-Yang was different. He had proven his ability to counterattack countless times.
Soon, the pages of the sports media were occupied by these words. Yang Mo promised to win the victory. Under the overwhelming publicity, it was difficult for this news not to get into the ears of LeBron James.
When LeBron James received the news, reporters also gathered around him, hoping to get his response.
"Everyone has the freedom to express their opinions, but there are some things that you can't just say. If you can say anything, then my son said yesterday that he wanted to put the sun into my back garden? So,
Regarding what that guy in Miami said, just listen to what he said, he will never win." LeBron James, the new regular season MVP, said very firmly.
When the reporter passed LeBron James's words to Yang Mo and asked for a response, Yang Mo simply said: "Watch the game. After the game is over, you will know whose words are correct.
It’s like only when the tide goes out do you know who’s not wearing underwear.”
