Basketball: Dayao Reopened

Chapter 217: ESPN phone interview

,

"Dayao, what's the matter? Don't be impulsive? Why did you ask for a deal?"

Zhang Mingji was frightened by these words and ran over quickly.

Yao Ming ignored him, but when Zhang Mingji interrupted him, he did feel a little impulsive. He immediately said to Bill Duffy: "Forget it, you don't need to call him to talk about this."

Hey~

Zhang Mingji breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Although he still didn't know what had happened, in his opinion, Yao Ming's reaction was a little too extreme.

Anything, you can sit down and have a good chat to see if there is room for relaxation.

Yao Ming continued to move towards Bill Duffy: "You wrote an article for me. The theme was that the Houston management did not trust me and concealed the transaction. It made me feel disrespectful and betrayed. Specifically, you can think about it carefully. After you finish writing it, send it to me for a look, and then you can contact the reporters in advance. Then I will have no problem here. Just send it out on Facebook and let those reporters write the article in the first time!"

Facebook is a social software that was officially launched on February 4 this year. You can log in with your email address, which is very convenient. Bill Duffy helped Yao Ming get one before, but Yao Ming didn’t plan to run Facebook. He remembers that Twitter will come out in two or three years. Once that thing comes out, it will be more popular than Facebook...Of course, this must be the hottest social software in the United States nowadays, and it just happens to be Yao Ming's voice tool!

"Okay, but what if Dawson wants to talk to you on the phone?" Bill Duffy asked a very critical question before hanging up. In fact, Dawson had already called him just now, thinking It is necessary to understand from him Yao Ming's attitude after knowing the transaction. Obviously, this grandson was also a little guilty after he had done something wrong.

"Never mind him!" Yao Ming said, "Just say I can't get in touch with you in China recently..." Since he didn't know the news until after the transaction was completed, then Dawson would also wait for him to publish it on Facebook. After finishing the article, let's get to know his current attitude for yourself!

"Don't..."

Zhang Mingji wanted to say something, but Yao Ming had already hung up the phone.

Bill Duffy has done what Yao Ming said.

"What did Dawson do?" Zhang Mingji decided to clarify things first.

Yao Ming told him the whole thing, and Zhang Mingji's face sank after hearing it: "Dawson is too shameless, he hasn't considered your feelings at all!"

To trade important players in the team, first say hello to the absolute core of the team. This is the default unspoken rule of the NBA, and Yao Ming is undoubtedly the absolute core of the Rockets, and it is Steve Francis who trades it. The well-known "Yao Ming Friend" actually traded directly without telling Yao Ming.

In addition, Yao Ming has been trying to communicate with him, but Dawson has no intention of communicating at all. He always uses perfunctory words and prevarication. This attitude also makes Zhang Mingji a bit angry!

He now fully understands why Yao Ming is so angry and why he did it!

Chinese players, especially Chinese players like Yao Ming, who are so good in both their ability to attract gold and their performance on the court, in the current environment, there is really no need to be so wronged.

Since you don't treat us as the emperor, then we will go to other teams that can treat us as the emperor!

As far as Yao Ming's ability to attract gold and his performance on the court, Zhang Mingji doesn't believe they can't find such a team anyway!

Yao Ming's face has also been composed.

From the end of the championship to the present, in almost three weeks, he approached Dawson several times, and he waited until now, and finally waited for such a result...

Really a dog can't change eating shit!

Now he fully understands why Dawson gave Mobley and Kevin Cato such a big contract so readily. Anyway, it is the players who are sent out. The Magic management team will execute the contract at that time. Dawson has Why are you hesitating?

And relying on the big contract of these three people, the Rockets also got two second-round signings from the Magic, and the team can get two more "child labor".

This shrewd abacus is crackling!

But this is good, just have a chance, you can leave Houston earlier!

After this incident, Yao Ming no longer had any expectations for Dawson and Alexander...

——Yao, what's the matter, how was Steve being traded?

——Omg, Yao, do you know these things? is this real?

——Fxxk, **** it, Yao, something has happened!

In about half an hour, Yao Ming received the information from his teammates, and he responded in a unified manner: I'm sorry, just like you, I only knew these things. The management didn't disclose anything to me before the transaction.

Afterwards, Karl Malone called to ask him, Yao Ming still answered the same, but he still told Karl Malone: ​​"If you continue to play in this league in the new season, don't sign with the Rockets!"

Karl Malone came for him in the first place, and he was specifically asked about the signing, which made Yao Ming very clear about Karl Malone’s thoughts. Now that he is ready to go, he shouldn’t let Karl Malone go to waste in the Rockets. A year's time!

Karl Malone obviously understood Yao Ming's implication. He was silent for a while before he sighed and said quietly, "I didn't expect it to be so suddenly! We were celebrating together half a month ago, and I didn't expect to go away so soon. NS!"

"This is the NBA!" Yao Ming said back, and he had a deeper understanding of this sentence in his heart.

"Yeah, this is the NBA!" Karl Malone followed.

Yao Ming then checked his mobile phone. With so many Rockets players, only Steve and the three of them did not call him. They should have been stunned by the news and still digesting himself.

Yao Ming believed that since Dawson didn't even say anything about him, he certainly didn't reveal it to a few of them.

Or... these guys are complaining about him, they must think he already knows these things, but they just didn't tell them.

Yes!

They would definitely think so!

After all, based on his current weight with the Rockets, what trade will Dawson not reveal to him in advance?

After thinking about it, Yao Ming sent a text message to these guys: I also saw this deal on the news, and I didn't know that such a thing happened!

The message was sent, but still no reply was received.

Yao Ming sighed helplessly, got up and went to record things.

Not long after he left, Dawson called. Unfortunately, Yao Ming was no longer available, so naturally no one answered it. Of course, even if Yao Ming was on the scene, he would not answer it.

Dawson made several phone calls to Yao Ming, and then sent several text messages, all of which were like a mud cow entering the sea, and his whole heart suddenly became anxious.

Is Yao angry?

No way?

This is Tracy McGrady!

Well, it shouldn’t be angry, but just digesting the sadness of being separated from Steve and others, so I don’t want to give me a message back now, um... it must be so!

He comforted himself in his heart, but couldn't help but call Bill Duffy.

"Man, Yao has returned home, hasn't he?"

"Yeah, didn't I just tell you just now!"

"Then he knows about the deal?"

"I don't know yet? I don't know either. I haven't been able to contact him either." I have to say that Bill Duffy's ability to play garlic is still very good.

The tone is very good.

"Did you not contact me?" When Dawson heard this, he was relieved immediately and his expression became clear. "Then man, if you contact Yao, remember to tell him, remember to give me a reply. Phone, I am waiting for his call anytime!"

"Okay, I see, if I get in touch, I will tell Yao, don't worry!" Bill Duffy promised, adding in his heart: That's weird!

Just wait for you to die!

"Okay, then it's settled, you're busy, man, I won't bother you." Dawson said and hung up the phone.

He just hung up the phone, his face wasn't fully stretched out, his brows frowned again, and he suddenly felt, why is this scene so familiar?

Forget it, don't want to, wait for the call!

Today is the recording of the last game of the Variety Show Finals. Today, the recording ends and the list of the first batch of basketball teenagers sent abroad will also be officially confirmed.

After Yao Ming was busy with this matter, he was able to withdraw from this matter for the time being.

This group of basketball teenagers will still concentrate on learning here in the next more than a month. In addition to basic basketball training, they also need to practice oral English, which will help them better integrate into the United States.

Bad language communication is really a very troublesome thing.

But Yao Ming will have to get busy for them in the American school in September.

However, even if he can get away from this matter temporarily, Yao Ming cannot rest. He has to go to Athens immediately to join the rest of the China Men’s Basketball Team. The time has come to July, and there is still a month before the Athens Olympics. It's time for the China Men's Basketball Team to break in!

The original Chinese men’s basketball team reached the top 8 in the Athens Olympics, and the results were not bad, and it was in the top 8 without Wang Zhizhi. This time there is Wang Zhizhi, and Yao Ming himself is also better than the original at the same time. He is stronger. As far as he is concerned, this Olympic Games in Athens must achieve better results than the original ones!

Otherwise, it will lose face!

The recording is still very smooth!

Then again, Yao Ming takes the lead, CCTV controls, and the basketball variety show. The whole game is very transparent. There is no inside story. Can it not go smoothly?

After recording, Yao Ming went back to the room and checked his mobile phone for the first time. He ignored Dawson's missed calls and unread text messages.

This guy doesn't send messages or make calls. For him, it really doesn't affect him at all. Is it possible that he can stop Yao Ming from posting Facebook by saying a few words?

Don't even think about it!

This is impossible!

This time, it was a decisive battle!

He looked through his phone so eagerly, just to see if the third brother sent him a text message.

The result is not too satisfactory.

Kevin Cato sent him a text message: I still don't want to believe this is true!

Yao Ming looked at his text message and couldn't help sighing.

——Man, I don’t believe this is true either!

Except for Kevin Cato who returned the message, the other two people did not send him a text message.

Obviously, he is still under a blow, and he hasn't picked up his mood.

However, Yao Ming is completely understandable. With these two self-esteem, it is certain that they cannot accept being suddenly traded by the team. Originally, they could not stand the Rockets suddenly traded them. Their self-esteem was frustrated, and they were confused for several years. Fading out of the league, this time, it is estimated that they are even more sad, you must know that they are now in the championship backcourt!

Actually just traded them!

This simply doesn't treat them as human beings!

Can you be sad?

The Houston media has blossomed. Judging from the report Bill Duffy sent to Yao Ming, everyone is already thinking about the dynasty that belongs to the Rockets!

Of course, this reaction is not surprising. After the deal was concluded, many media in the United States were optimistic about the combination of Yao Ming and McGrady, calling them the "ok" combination and then another pair that will rule the alliance!

Now Yao Ming, as the most valuable player who has just won the championship, is in the top two of the NBA's fifth position, and his dominance is especially strong during the same period.

His combination with McGrady is naturally even more promising!

In Yao Ming's view, Francis and Mobley have not given him back information until now. It is probably related to the reaction of the Houston media. No one misses them. They are like two old dogs abandoned by Houston. This feeling, can they stand it?

But, it's okay, let the Houston guys be happy!

Soon, it was too late for them to cry!

Yao Ming then packed his things and headed to the airport with Lu Hao. Yao Ming was going to rush to Athens overnight.

After Xu Jinnan learned about this, he found a driver to take them to the airport.

When he arrived at the airport, Yao Ming thanked the driver. After he left, he couldn't help but ask Lu Hao: "Hey, what about the driver, Xiao Wu? Isn't that the exclusive driver?" Xiao Wu is Xu Jinnan's driver , An old driver, he followed Xu Jinnan to pick them up before, so he had the impression.

"Xiao Wu went in!" Lu Hao was a news source.

"Ah?" Yao Ming was taken aback, "What's wrong?" The kid had a good impression.

Lu Hao said, "I heard that the PC was arrested! No one of these drivers dislikes drinking tea, especially this Xiao Wu, who drinks tea when he is fine. He is a famous tea king in Fuzhou, but he is also unlucky. I heard that he is resting. On Sunday, his mother came to the work unit to look for him. He was not there and couldn’t contact him. She called the police for fear that he had an accident, and was caught by the police. Hey, maybe Xiao Wu didn’t expect that he had opened so many rooms. The door, the last one opened will be the prison door!"

Yao Ming listened very enthusiastically and was about to get some details. At this time, Bill Duffy called and said, "It's done, Yao, it's sent to your mailbox, let's take a look!"

No way, it’s important to be busy first. Yao Mingming specially asked Lu Hao to go to the Internet cafe. Lu Hao downloaded the article and brought it to Yao Ming.

"I never thought that I would post such an article!"

"Until two hours ago, I still loved the Rockets deeply and trusted the management of the Rockets!"

"My teammates and I have just completed a brilliant season. I think we will continue to work hard to win the second and third championships. I even thought about spending a lifetime in this city! Because I love this. City!"

"But all this came to an abrupt end after the Rockets management completed the transaction for Steve Francis!"

"The Rockets management hurt me, they let my trust be in vain!"

"On the night of the championship, I once had an all-night conversation with General Manager Dawson. I clearly expressed what I meant. I hope that the team’s personnel will not change in this summer because we won the championship. With some small reinforcements, we can continue to win the championship. This is my confidence in myself and my teammates!"

"General Manager Dawson agreed to me. He promised that this team will not have any changes, and told me that he is already preparing to strengthen the deal!"

"I'm happy about it!"

"But after I talked to him several times, he didn't reveal any more information to me. He just assured me that there will be good results. Let me wait for the final news. I chose to trust because here During that time he renewed Cardino, renewed Kevin, and my brothers are back! This makes me feel relieved!"

"But now it seems that they renewed Cardino and Kevin, just to use them to trade!"

"They just left, I know, they must be very sad now, and I can feel their sadness, because at this moment, I am as sad as them!"

"We were all deceived by the Rockets' management!"

"I can no longer face my brothers, and I don't know how to trust the Rockets' management. They have repeatedly promised me that they will not trade Steve, but they just sent my brothers out! "

"Nothing to disclose to me at all!"

"I have to doubt that one day, I will be sent out like this, without knowing it..."

"This is a blatant deception. The Rockets management betrayed my feelings and it made me unable to trust them anymore!"

"So please send me away like my brother!"

"everything is over!"

After browsing, Yao Ming turned off the computer and called Bill Duffy: "Okay, you can send it!"

"Send it now?" Bill Duffy couldn't help but swallowed his throat. He knew exactly what this article would mean once it was published. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a nuclear bomb explosion, and now that a nuclear bomb exploded. The button is in his hand, you say, can he not be nervous?

"send!"

boom--

"Nuclear bomb" officially detonated!

"Yes, yes, this is a bold attempt. After I had this idea, we started working hard with this goal. In the end, we also successfully completed the transaction we wanted. We got Tracy, I believe that Yao and Tracy will definitely become another very classic combination in the league!"

"I, I have nothing to say, hehehe, I just did what I should do. Yes, I admit that this deal is very good, but it's nothing more. Thank you for the interview!"

Dawson sat in his office and ended another telephone interview of himself. This is already the eighth telephone interview today. After he completed the deal with the Magic and brought Tracy McGrady to Space City, he suddenly became The general manager who is most able to do transactions in the entire league is not only interviewed by the Houston media, but also many other media. This makes him feel great. He likes the feeling of being followed!

Because of this, the feeling of being a little nervous about the deal with Yao Ming is completely relaxed at this moment. All the people who interviewed him are saying that the transaction was completed very well, and the Houston media are also complimenting him, which makes it even more so. He felt that he had completed a very remarkable deal, and Yao Ming was really just digesting his sadness by ignoring him.

No big deal!

Um?

Why did Yao Ming post on Facebook?

Dawson naturally also has Facebook, and also added Yao Ming's attention, but Yao Ming doesn't seem to play Facebook. After he added it to the present, he hasn't read Yao Ming's updated content.

He didn't know what was going on, a trace of anxiety suddenly flashed in his heart, and he subconsciously glanced at his mobile phone. Until now, Yao Ming has not called him.

Send me a Facebook page instead of replying to me?

Dawson's face sank suddenly, holding a heavy mouse and clicking on Yao Ming's Facebook.

"Until two hours ago, I still loved the Rockets deeply and trusted the management of the Rockets!"

"The Rockets management hurt me, they let my trust be in vain!"

"But now it seems that they renewed Cardino and Kevin, just to use them to trade!"

"I have to doubt that one day, I will be sent out like this, without knowing it..."

"So please send me away like my brother!"

...

Dawson watched line by line, the more he looked at his whole face, the more wrong he was. When Yao Ming finally said, "So, please send me away like my brother", he even picked up the phone at the corner of the table. , Called Yao Ming.

But this time, the notification sound directly reminded Yao Ming that his phone was turned off.

"Fxxk!"

He yelled and called Bill Duffy again.

"General Manager Dawson, what's the matter?"

As soon as the bell rang three times, Bill Duffy was connected. Listening to his calm tone, Dawson subconsciously wanted to scold his mother, but he still tried to stabilize his emotions: "Man, why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"What?" Bill Duffy continued to play dumb.

"Facebook..." Dawson couldn't help it.

"Oh, you said Facebook!" Bill Duffy's tone was suddenly enlightened, but then his tone became cold and cold, "Didn't you tell us about the transaction?"

"F...but do you know how big the basket will be like this?"

Dawson stopped his life, but he didn’t seem to realize what Yao Ming’s attitude was. Bill Duffy reminded: “Man, Yao asked me to convey a word to you. He was disappointed in you. He was very disappointed in you. I am also very disappointed, so hurry up and trade him!"

"You make Yao..."

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

Dawson wanted to say something, but Bill Duffy hung up.

"Hey Hey hey!"

Dawson hit back immediately, but this time he couldn't get through no matter how much he hits.

"Fxxk!"

Now Dawson couldn't help it anymore, and slapped his phone on the table.

But at this time, the phone on the corner of his desk rang, and he picked it up. It was Rockets correspondent Feigen: "Man, Yao said on Facebook that he is leaving the Rockets. What is the situation!" "

"How do I know that!" Dawson yelled and hung up the phone directly.

No, you have to quickly tell the boss about this!

Alexander is sitting in his office, his right hand is holding a freshly cut cigar-Gurka Royal Courtesan cigar, a box of one million, this is the most expensive cigar in the world. It is also Alexander's favorite cigar.

Before igniting, he took a deep breath of his cigarette, showing an expression of addiction!

This smell is so good!

Alexander couldn't help it anymore. He took the zippo on one side and was about to light it, with a smile on his face unconsciously.

"Fight with me, you are still tender!"

He muttered to himself.

Under normal circumstances, he can't bear to smoke this brand of cigar, he will only take out a Gurka Royal when he has won a big battle.

But today's situation, for him, is no different from a big victory!

The guy who yelled at him to prepare a big contract was sent to Orlando by him, hum, really any cat and dog dare to reach out to me for money! Don't look at what you are!

In exchange for an nba superstar!

After Dawson first mentioned McGrady to him, Alexander specifically went to get to know this guy, and he found that this is a superstar who is as popular as Kobe and Carter, and is much more popular than Francis. This makes him Very happy-McGrady and Yao Ming will definitely be the most profitable combination of NBA!

Alexander seemed to have seen a large bundle of beautiful knives running towards him!

Do you think he can celebrate without having a royal Gurka?

Now, the only problem may be how to appease the Chinese man!

However, he is not worried. That Tracy McGrady was the league's scoring leader last season. In terms of strength, he is better than Francis. How could Huaxia not like such a strong teammate?

He was thinking happily, but the phone on the table rang at this moment. He picked it up and glanced at it. It was Dawson's phone.

Want to come, have you calmed Yao Ming?

"Hey, what did the Chinese people say, has he figured it out clearly?"

"He... posted on Facebook!"

Dawson hesitated and said it anyway.

Alexander did not realize the seriousness of the problem: "What?"

Why are you so stupid?

Dawson said directly: "Yao sent Facebook, and he asked us to trade him!"

"What?" Alexander obviously didn't expect this result, his mouth opened wide from surprise, and the cigar in his mouth fell straight into his crotch.

It was still summer, and he only wore a pair of shorts, which were still made of silk. He directly burned a hole for him, and came into contact with "Little Alexander" directly.

"Ah~"

The miserable cry echoed in Alexander's room.

I just don't know, at this moment, is "Little Alexander" hurting a little, or his heart is a little more confused!

"What the **** is going on, **** it!"

Well, judging from his reaction to the end of his grip on his crotch, but still insisting on calling Dawson, it is obviously a little more confused!

Dawson said: "I don't know, Yao just posted Facebook suddenly and didn't communicate with us at all..."

As soon as Alexander heard that Dawson was not clear, he ran to report to him, and immediately became more angry: "Then you don't hurry to contact Yao!"

"I think too! But Yao and his agent refused to communicate with us!" Dawson replied helplessly.

"Then try to get in touch with them too!" Alexander almost yelled at these words, just like Dawson yelled at Fegan.

"Yes, yes, yes, I know, boss!" Dawson looked at this posture, knowing that he couldn't say more, he quickly responded, and prepared to wait for a while to find a solution by himself!

"What a waste!"

He hung up, and Alexander screamed bitterly while clutching "Little Alexander".

At the same time, in the office of the general manager of the Los Angeles Staples Arena, a rush of telephone ringing rang, scared Kupchak, who was preparing to make an offer to Miami, slightly frowned and picked up the phone, after listening to the person on the phone. After talking to him, he stood up directly: "Are you sure?"

He asked, touching the mouse unconsciously, opening the Facebook app, and he saw Yao posting a Facebook page. When he saw "Please send me away like my brother", He also couldn't help but enlarge his nostrils.

"Pattern!"

Putting the phone aside, he didn't say anything, and he deleted the quotation contract that had just been drawn up... Just kidding, there is a chance to get Yao Ming, who is worried about the Heat?

At the same time, in the office of the general manager of the American Airlines Arena in Miami, Pat Riley also deleted the contract drawn on the computer. There is a chance to get the name of the 24-year-old Yao. Who wants the 33-year-old Shaq O’Neal!

It’s not just these two. The same thing is happening in other general manager’s offices. Almost all general managers shelved their original plans after learning the news and began to draw up a contract to trade Yao Ming... …

"Bill..."

"It's you? You also changed your phone number specifically? How impatient?"

Dawson hung up the phone, thought for a long time, and finally thought of it, only to communicate with Bill Duffy. This time he showed a lot of patience: "Man, how is Yao willing to talk to me?"

Bill Duffy responded with silence. This response is actually very clear: Yao Ming can't talk to you anymore!

"This can't solve the problem, man, let's sit down and have a face-to-face chat. I think there is no problem and we can't reach a unity. We have had a very happy cooperation, have we? We..."

"Let's do it!" Bill Duffy listened to Dawson's "successful temptation", just like listening to the fart. In the end he couldn't stand it anymore and said, "In fact, it's not that Yao doesn't want to talk to you. As long as you agree to trade Yao, Then I think Yao will be very willing to chat with you!"

"...Is it the only way?" Dawson felt aggrieved.

"That's the only way!" Bill Duffy could hear the aggrieved tone in Dawson's tone, but his voice was still indifferent. He didn't forget. Before, he asked Yao Ming several times about the progress of the transaction, and this guy also responded indifferently. He: In the process, I would not say more than a word.

What is this called now?

This is called "Feng Shui Turns Around"!

"I came to Tracy for his hard work. They were all in this circle, Bill, you conscientiously say that this guy is not strong?" Dawson suddenly began to complain again.

"Heh~" Poor Baba's appearance caused Bill Duffy to sneer, "It's all in this circle, so don't think of us as fools. Why do you use Steve, Catino and Kevin Cato to trade? Tracy, do you really think we can't tell?"

Dawson was a little guilty about what Bill Duffy said, and he didn't dare to speak for a long time. Bill Duffy was impatient and consumed it: "Listen, General Manager Dawson, only deal with us. Otherwise, wait. Things will get bigger and bigger!"

"It's not good for everyone!" Dawson watched Bill Duffy talk more and more deadly, and started playing hard again.

Bill Duffy was not polite with him either, and hung up the call.

"Okay, very good, wait and see!"

Dawson's eyes flashed coldly, and he picked up the phone from the corner of the table and called out: "Man, I think you should be very interested in our affairs now. Give you a chance to interview us... Well, yes, I'm going to prepare it. ,good!"

He must start first!

——Yao, you actually turned over with the Rockets for me and Catino publicly. You really touched me so much. I think, I really blamed you, sorry!

——Yao, thank you!

The United States exploded directly because of Yao Ming’s article on Facebook, and Yao Ming, who was the initiator, finally arrived in Athens at this moment. From Fuzhou to Athens, plus a transfer, it took a full 14 hours. Yao Ming was basically sleeping on the road, but he didn't sleep very well, which caused him to be a little awake when he got off the plane.

But after the phone was turned on, the unseen text messages that popped up constantly made him wake up instantly.

It seems that the noise is not small!

Yao Ming said something in his heart.

After opening the SMS interface and browsing, Francis and Mobley finally sent him a text message. You can see from the content of the text message that Yao Ming had not thought wrong before. These two guys thought he knew about the transaction, and deliberately didn't say it. Yao Ming didn't blame them. If he were in that situation, he would definitely think about it. This is normal!

After returning text messages to these two people, Yao Ming glanced at other people's text messages. Most of them were text messages lobbying him to join. It is better to have a relationship. For example, Vince Carter and Nowitzki are also related. Yes, such as Paul Pierce. After adding the contact information, he never talked once, but this time he sent him a lobbying text message.

What a face!

However, Yao Ming did not reply to any of them.

In addition, Yao Ming also saw that Olajuwon also sent him a text message: Man, Dawson wants me to persuade you, of course, don’t get me wrong, I texted you not because of his words, I just want to Say, man, good job! This is a wise choice. As you said, since they can abandon Steve and Cardino, they are likely to abandon you in the future. This kind of thing has already happened. You are right, according to yours. Come on ideas!

This kind of thing has already happened. Although he didn't say it clearly, Yao Ming knew that Olajuwon was talking about himself!

Speaking of it, it was also the conversation with Olajuwon that just now made Yao Ming firm in his belief that he must leave the Rockets... Olajuwon has done enough for this city, winning two consecutive championship trophies! Isn't it that you can't even get a dignified pension contract?

——Man, I know, thank you!

Yao Ming sent back a text message to Olajuwon, and then directly called Bill Duffy. Although he knew that his article on Facebook should have detonated the entire NBA circle, he still needs to know more details. , He needs to know the reaction of Dawson and Alexander.

Bill Duffy seemed to be holding the phone all the time. As soon as he called from here, he was connected directly over there.

"Hey, Yao, are you in Athens now?"

"Well, how was the situation just after getting off the plane?"

"It's very messy outside now. My phone is about to be blown up by reporters and the management of each team. These guys are crazy!" Bill Duffy said at the end, a little more distracted and lingering. Obviously I was also shocked by the madness of reporters and other team management in the league.

This is Yao Ming's influence in this league now!

"What's the reaction from the Rockets?" Yao Ming asked directly.

Bill Duffy said all the events during this period, including Dawson's two phone calls to him: "After the second call, this guy immediately accepted an interview with tnt. The second reinforcements have been added to the vinegar. At present, the Houston media are also helping to build momentum, shaping you into a player who has a strong desire for control and is greedy for manipulating the team's trade!"

"It's okay, even if they say it's useless, it's me who sold the miserable first!" Yao Ming didn't care at all. This is also the reason why he wants to post specifically on Facebook.

He understands the importance of public opinion better than Dawson!

Bill Duffy smiled when he heard Yao Ming say "selling miserable". He rarely heard such words, and felt very fresh. He also saw Yao Ming's methods of playing with public opinion again.

Because even if Dawson accepted the interview with tnt, coupled with the momentum of several Houston media, from the current public opinion, everyone is more sympathetic to Yao Ming!

The expert team composed of Kenny Smith, Barkley, and a bunch of retired players is even more blunt: "Houston is really disrespectful to Yao. He just brought Houston a championship trophy, so he was so deceived and betrayed! "

In short, they are all arguing for Yao Ming...

And this is the preconceived advantage!

However, Yao Ming didn't just satisfy the current public opinion advantage. He asked Bill Duffy, "Does the media want to interview me?"

"Yes, of course."

Not only there are, but also many!

"Espn hopes to conduct an interview with us on a live call..."

"Yes, it's them. You can contact them when you come." Although espn has not become the absolute leader as it did later, there is absolutely no problem with fighting against tnt.

Since Dawson chose tnt, Yao Ming chose espn.

Bill Duffy immediately went to set Yao Ming's time.

"Well, it's about 8 o'clock tomorrow morning..."

"You just say it in a few hours!" Yao Ming interrupted Bill Duffy, not to mention the time difference between Athens and the United States. Yao Ming sat for more than ten hours and was completely dizzy. He didn't know that it was the extreme right now. It's better to make it simpler.

Bill Duffy also reacted at this moment: "I'm sorry...in about eight or nine hours, right?"

"Okay!" Yao Ming agreed.

"By the way, man, I have prepared some materials for you, you may use it by then!" Bill Duffy's tone became a little mysterious.

Yao Ming asked curiously: "What information?"

"It's nothing..." Bill Duffy said, "Just take the time to sort out the total salary of the endorsement contract signed by you after you enter Houston! There are some other content, too much sorting, I can't remember what else is there at this time!"

When Yao Ming heard these materials, the corners of his mouth raised, he had to admit that he really needed it: "Man, you are indeed the best agent!"

"Hahaha, yes, Yao!"

After he was busy with this, the driver also sent them to the hotel where the China Men's Basketball Team was located.

When he came, he told Wang Zhizhi, so when he arrived at the hotel, Wang Zhizhi voluntarily ran to pick him up, and then took him to meet other people, including the head coach of the China Men's Basketball Team.

Jiang Xingquan is no longer the head coach of the China Men's Basketball Team for the Olympic Games. This time the head coach is "Silver Fox" Harris, and he has therefore become the first foreign head coach hired in the history of the China Men's Basketball Team.

As for who "Silver Fox" Harris is...it's the man who pressed Kobe on the bench! It's not that I just want to be on the bench, I just think Kobe is mediocre... However, although he thinks Kobe is mediocre, he appreciates Yi Jianlian. Originally this year, he was the one who selected Yi Jianlian into the country. The team became the youngest member of the national team at the time, which shocked the domestic media for a while.

Of course, there is no problem with his extraordinary promotion. Facts have proved that Yi Jianlian is the best Chinese player in the post-Yao Ming era!

However, this time, because of Yao Ming's reopening, Yi Jianlian joined the national team last year, and the domestic shock has already been over. So even if he still selected Yi Jianlian into the national team, there is no controversial voice from the outside world.

The China National Men's Basketball Team should indeed cultivate fresh blood and prepare for the 2008 Olympic Games, which is the Olympic Games held at their own door!

When Harris saw Yao Ming, his eyes were full of appreciation. As the current assistant coach of the Nets, he is also one of the many coaches who greet Yao Ming in the NBA. Therefore, he has the opportunity to coach Yao Ming this time. I didn't say, I came right away.

He also wants to try Yao Ming's tactics of holding the ball outside the three-point line to contain the defense. It must be very cool!

After meeting the teammates of the national team, Yao Ming went to rest. Almost six hours later, Bill Duffy called and reminded that the show was about to start in half an hour.

Yao Ming hurriedly washed, opened the window to sober his head, then opened the mailbox and looked at the information Bill Duffy had prepared for him. I have to say that there are quite a few, including the Rockets mentioned by Bill Duffy before. In the past two years, relying on the endorsement contract signed by him, there are other benefits.

After reading this information, he even wanted to leave Houston!

Although he will definitely help the owner of one of the 30 teams in the league to make money, he doesn't want that owner to be Alexander. It's not worth it!

After he read the information, an unfamiliar phone called, because Bill Duffy greeted him, and he also knew that it should be an interview with espn.

He picked it up: "Hey..."

"Hey, buddy, this is Bill Walton, is it Yao?" A voice familiar to Yao's name rang on the phone, and espn specially sent Bill Walton to conduct this interview.

"Yes, sir, this is Yao Ming..."

The two sides exchanged greetings first, and after greeting, Bill Walton also entered the subject: "Okay, Yao, let's officially start today's interview!"

"So, what you say on Facebook is your own post!"

"certainly!"

"Can you talk about the entire process of this transaction?"

"It's very simple, that is, General Manager Dawson sent Steve and them away without me knowing the whole process. I tried to communicate with him, but he had no idea of ​​communicating with me at all. He just kept using us fast. It was successful. Wait for the surprise. Such words will prevaricate me. Okay, I must admit that he really scared me. When I heard the news, I almost dropped my phone!"

"So you lost trust in the Rockets management?"

"Yes, they promised me that they would not trade Steve, Cardino, or any major players, but what happened? Maybe one day, they would promise me this way and send me away. , Isn’t it? Instead of that, I’m going to leave directly!"

"But they traded Tracy, the best scorer in the league, you guys look great!"

"I never doubted Tracy's ability. In fact, I didn't want to leave because of him. If the deal was done with my knowledge, I wouldn't feel betrayed, but now, I really don't want to leave. Trust the Rockets."

"Okay, man, maybe you don’t know yet. General Manager Dawson just accepted an interview with tnt not long ago. In the interview, he bluntly said that you interfere too much in the team’s transaction. The reason you are concealing..."

"Heh~" Yao Ming wanted to laugh. "If it's a deal that really benefits the team, why should I interfere?"

Um?

Bill Walton heard the overtones: "Do you think the Rockets are not going for the championship?"

"I just haven't heard of any championship team that will send most of their main lineups next year!" Yao Ming did not answer directly, but his answer is actually the same as a direct answer, so he said directly. Yes.

"This is Tracy, the guy the entire league wants!"

After Yao Ming said this, a voice rang from Bill Walton, who should be the expert who hosted the show together. But even with the host, Yao Ming couldn't help frowning: "Man, it's impolite to intervene so suddenly!"

"Sorry!" Bill Walton apologized for him, and at the same time gave the expert a fierce look. This was an exclusive telephone interview in the United States. How many media could not wait for the opportunity, and he was almost messed up by this guy. He motioned Stop talking about that expert.

Yao Ming still answered this question: "But we were the champions of last season. We have already proved that if we are going for the championship, we only need to reinforce, instead of giving away most of the main lineup. Go out, don't you?"

This rhetorical question left the expert speechless.

No way ~www.novelmt.com~ The championship can just stop anyone's mouth!

"So that's why you want to leave, isn't it?"

"Of course!" Yao Ming admitted truthfully, "I came to the NBA to prove that Chinese players can also gain a foothold in the NBA. Otherwise, why should I play in the NBA? The championship is the best proof! Therefore, I just want to strengthen , A team that is willing to compete for the championship to play!"

"But if it's not for reinforcement, there is no need for Dawson to trade Tracy over?" The expert was still a little bit dissatisfied.

Yao Ming once again reiterated: "We are already the championship, do we still need to dismantle the team to reinforce it? Any team general manager who wants to compete for the championship can't do this!"

"Then you said, why did the Rockets do this?" The expert had nothing to say, but he still asked.

But this time Yao Ming didn’t say directly: “You should ask General Manager Dawson about this question, why he did this, to save money? To avoid the luxury tax? You can sign some for more draft picks. Cheap contract? There are many reasons, but Guan Xu doesn't have much to do with me. I only know that they cheated me. I don't have any trust in this team anymore!"
