NBA: Start with a three-point experience card

Chapter 753 Quarterfinal against Slovenia

753 Quarter-final against Slovenia

Wang Yi hung up the phone, talked to Divac again, and told him about Mitchell's situation.

Finally said: "Of course, I have no intention of interfering in the operation of the team. This is just a small suggestion, and the decision is still yours."

Still the same sentence, professional things are left to professional people to do.

As for who the general manager traded away and who came in, he didn't want to worry about it.

Anyway, I can win the championship with the current king, so it doesn't matter who comes and who goes.

As a result, Divac agreed immediately: "No problem, of course it's no problem, you've already spoken, so of course it's no problem."

Wang Yi was slightly surprised by his words.

He used to be in other teams, and basically the general manager could decide whether he would stay or not with a single sentence.

All he has to do is try his best to express himself and impress the coach and general manager, and even so, he often ends up being cut or traded by the team.

And up to now, he can decide whether a player will stay or not with one sentence.

This change in status is embarrassing.

But this is actually not surprising.

Wang Yi single-handedly brought the team that could not make the playoffs in 16 into the playoffs, and finally won the championship.

Among other things, the ticket revenue alone is a lot higher than in previous years.

The Kings were still in the red last year, losing a full $3 million.

According to previous statistics, the Kings have earned $3 million this year.

This is not counted, as the Kings won the championship, the market value of the Kings also continued to rise.

Before Wang Yi joined, the market value of the Kings was only 18.2 billion US dollars.

Only ranked 30th among the 15 teams in the league.

After Wang Yi joined the Kings, the market value began to rise.

That rose to $20.3 billion at the start of the playoffs.

Since winning the championship this year, in just two months, it has risen to 25.7 billion US dollars, ranking 30th among the 8 teams.

And as long as Wang Yi is still in the Kings, this market value will continue to rise.

This is the huge benefit Wang Yi brought to the team.

From this point of view, his salary of more than 2800 million U.S. dollars a year is already high quality and low price.

In order to keep Wang Yi, Divac naturally wouldn't care about Mitchell's mere $100 million.

He even said to Wang Yi: "With Mitchell's ability, if he goes to other teams, he should be able to get 250 to 300 million US dollars. After all, he has also contributed to our team, and we can't treat him badly. He signed for two years and $600 million, what do you think?"

Wang Yi smiled: "You have the final say."

In fact, there is nothing surprising about this. In order to keep him, the Kings will fully satisfy as long as his request is not too much.

The current salary space of the Kings is still very large, even if they sign another superstar, there is no pressure.

So there is no problem in keeping Mitchell.

And since it's to please Wang Yi, it doesn't matter if I give Mitchell more than 100 million more.

After all, compared to the money Wang Yi made for the Kings, it was only a drop in the bucket.

Wang Yi nodded immediately: "As long as the team has no problems, there is no problem."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Yi called Mitchell again and told him the news.

Mitchell immediately cheered when he heard that the Kings wanted to sign him for 600 million in two years.

"Oh, my god, unbelievable, thank you boss, thank you so much."

"You are my reborn parents, you are my savior, you are my sun."

"The boss said that if there is light, there will be light. Boss, I will follow you all my life."

Being able to stay in the Kings and earning 300 million a year is simply flattering.

The most important thing is to be able to stay with Wang Yi.

He has identified Wang Yi all his life, and he will go wherever Wang Yi goes in the future. He is the pendant on Wang Yi's thigh.

So if an ordinary person wants to make a fortune in this life, either you have absolute strength and can soar into the sky.

Either you have to have an absolute vision, identify the person who can soar into the sky, and then hug this thigh tightly, become a pendant on his leg, and follow him to soar into the sky.

Mitchell clearly falls into the latter category.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Yi closed his eyes and rested, not thinking about these things anymore.

The most important thing now is the next game.

According to the rules, the Huaxia team, as the first place in the group, will face the second place in another group.

That is Slovenia.

Because of the presence of Doncic, Slovenia is now considered a strong team internationally.

In the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, they won the 4th place.

As long as China wins this game, it will ensure the top 4. Not only will it create the best record in the history of China's men's basketball team, but it will also be able to qualify for the Olympics next year.

Four hours later, the plane landed at Manila International Airport, the capital of the Philippines.

Manila has a tropical monsoon climate with only two seasons a year.

Either it is hot and humid, or it is rainy season.

It is September and it is the rainy season here.

After getting off the plane, they came to the Manila Hotel.

It is said to be the best hotel in the Philippines.

There are more than 500 suites in the entire hotel, and from any of them, you can directly see the coastline covered by lush plants in Manila.

Every room here is a sea view room with an excellent location.

There are also some famous attractions near Manila.

Such as the world-famous Coconut Palace, Children's House, Taal Lake.

But there will be a game the night after tomorrow, so the players are not in the mood to visit any attractions at all.

In the words of Coach Du Feng: "Only when you get good grades can you be eligible to go shopping. If you can't get good grades, just go back to China with your tail between your legs as soon as possible, and don't fucking embarrass yourself outside."

After coming to the hotel to rest for more than two hours, coach Du Feng led the players to have a meeting in the conference room.

The main content of the meeting was to study the Slovenian lineup and their style of play.

Slovenia is different from Japan and Korea.

The biggest difference is that they have Doncic.

Doncic is a character who has played MVP-level performances for several consecutive seasons.

He is also a hot star in the NBA now.

In addition to Doncic, there are several players in Slovenia worth noting.

One is Dragic-not the Dragic of the Heat, but his own brother.

In the 2021 Olympics, he once scored 27 points in a single game.His existence can largely share the pressure of Doncic.

The other is Chanchar.

He's also an NBA-level player.

With the three of them, the lower limit of the Slovenian men's basketball team will never be low.

Coach Du Feng's request is: "Doncic can score goals, but he must not be allowed to drive others."
