NBA: The Beast Rise

Chapter 19

"Hey, draft template O'Neal and Chamberlain? Are you not mistaken? "

"Is it because I don't understand the ball or is the scouting crazy?", is the crown really that strong?".

"Haha, I can't wait for the season to start slapping Lakers management in the face, this scouting report feels like a joke. "

"So the question is, is the crown as strong as it is legendary?Now the Black Crown, I'm waiting for your true fragrance when the season starts!!".

At this time, the management of the Lakers, who was in the center of the fishing boat, was very calm, and did not pay attention to all kinds of doubts from the outside world, but firmly believed that they had made a lot of money.

After the draft, Wang Mian immediately flew to Los Angeles to meet with Lakers management.

After a brief medical examination, the two parties discuss the rookie contract.

In the Lakers' office, Wang Mian met with Magic John Xun and the team's general manager Pelinka.

Both welcomed the arrival of the crown, especially the magician John, who was very enthusiastic.

They were thoroughly impressed by the performance of the crown at the joint tryout in Chicago, especially the image of hanging Downs, which made him very impressed.

So after returning to the team, he also immediately discussed it, and even did not hesitate to use his personal relationship to report to the team owner, and finally persuaded the rest of the management.

And this time he was able to pick up the leak from the hands of the Timberwolves, which also made him very proud.

He is extremely confident that this choice will bring the Lakers back to life!

The Lakers offered the crown a three-year, 30 million rookie contract, with the third year being a team option.

The total amount of rookie contracts is basically fixed, and can only fluctuate from 80% to 120% under the standards set by the league, and the contracts of the rookie are generally slightly larger than the middle class.

However, the Lakers here are very sincere, and the amount given is directly the highest level, and there is only a one-year team option.

"Crown, this is the biggest contract we can offer you, and we believe in your strength immensely. "

So for this rookie contract, Wang Mian didn't think too much.

He had already learned about the league's salary rules in the NBA from Fagan, so he took a look at the contract and agreed.

Just when the crown signed the contract, in the Celestial Empire on the other side of the ocean, the carnival caused by the crown being elected and joining the Lakers has not stopped.

After Da Yao learned that Wang Mian was elected as the leader, he immediately sent a scarf to congratulate him.

"Congratulations on another domestic player who has entered the NBA and has been selected as the top player, and we look forward to your performance in the new season!".

As a legend in the history of basketball in the Celestial Empire, Da Yao single-handedly brought the NBA to China, and made the Rockets the home team of Celestial Empire fans, with unparalleled influence.

For fans, though, which team is the home team depends on whether the team has domestic players and can play well.

Countless people also believe that the Lakers with the crown must be the most popular team in China next season.

Before the season even began, the crown began to show his influence.

The moment this WB was issued, it was on the hot search list, and countless fans left messages under this Weibo WB.

"Finally have the motivation to watch the NBA again! Da Yao to the crown, this is the inheritance of the super center of the Celestial Empire!".

"I haven't watched the NBA since Da Yao retired, and now I've decided to come back in the new season and become a fan of the crown!".

"Barkley actually said that the crown can't score more than 20 points once in his career, does he want to kiss the donkey's ass again?".

"Wang Mian is the next Da Yao! I believe he will surprise us!".

At this time, the scarf has become a carnival position for basketball fans, and Weibo about Wang Mian has occupied 4 of the top five hot searches! !

The video of him wreaking havoc in Dongdan earlier was also resurfaced and watched repeatedly.

Iron Bull also appeared in WB, talking about how he felt when he was abused by the crown when he was on the throne.

Facing the NBA's new list, it is not a shame for him to be blown up, but an honor.

。。。。。。

The smooth signing of the contract with Wang Mian also made General Manager Pelinka breathe a sigh of relief.

With the all-important rookie in mind, the next step is to begin discussions with the team's other first-round pick this year, Larry Nance Jr., to complete a contract.

After signing his rookie contract, Wang Mian officially became a Lakers player.

The team's head coach Byron Scott also stepped forward to congratulate him, and the two sides chatted about the new season.

"Wang, I am interested in making you the team's starting center forward in the new season, and I hope you can be ready. "

Boozer, the team's center last season, has departed, so this season Scott intends to start directly with the crown.

"It was a wise decision. "

Wang Mian listened to the head coach's words and said very confidently.

"Haha, what I like the most is your confident personality!".

Scott likes the domineering and confident attitude of the crown.

Time passed quickly in the midst of all the chatter, and during this time, Wang Mian was training in the training hall.

Since he has officially signed with the Lakers, Wang Mian can use the Lakers' training facilities and trainers, and occasionally have a 5v5 match within the team, and each time Wang Mian can perform amazingly.

。。。

Soon the time came at the end of July, and this year's Las Vegas season league officially began.

Summer League, as the name suggests, is a league held by the NBA during the summer offseason.

The Summer League is an opportunity for NBA teams to scout for newcomers and dig for marginal players before the new season.

The Lakers also intend to make this year's No. 1 champion and Larry Nance Jr. participate in the Las Vegas Summer League!

The focus is naturally on the crown!

Although Wang Mian has excellent physical fitness, he has also beaten the champion Downs in the joint trial meeting.

But, after all, he has not played a player in an official match.

Many fans are also worried about whether he will be able to adapt to the professional game, so the summer league in Las Vegas is a chance for him to test and show.

If the crown can perform well in summer league, then he may be able to break the skepticism.

PS, kneel and beg for flowers, evaluate votes, and give tips!
