Chapter 231: Discord

Wang Tomorrow felt a little embarrassed, the Thunder team was not in his consideration, but on the contrary, people reported the highest level of sincerity, which made him a little moved.

Durant is a good guy, and from his eyes, Wang Ming saw that fighting spirit and blood.

Wang Mingming could not directly refuse the guests who came from afar, so he chatted with them all morning in the café, and finally invited the three of them to have lunch together, and then said goodbye.

"If you are willing to come to Thunder, I am willing to offer you a salary of 6 million annual salary, and your requirements can be met, please contact us as soon as possible!"

Before Bennett got into the car, he held Wang Mingming's palm tightly.

"I'll think about it." Wang Mingming bowed slightly, smiling.

An important reason why Wang Mingming does not consider the Thunder is that the Thunder are located in Oklahoma, and although Oklahoma is classified as a Western team, it is located in the middle of the United States, which is very different from Wang's idea of taking care of Gal Gadot on the West Coast tomorrow.

The Thunder team really wants to do something about it, but some teams don't care much about getting the king tomorrow.

Profit-seeking is a businessman's instinct, and many owners value Wang Mingming's huge market effect on the team more than Wang's huge achievements on the court - the 76ers have gone from a loss to one of the most profitable teams in the league in the past two years.

If the Lakers can provide the head coach position, of course Wang Tomorrow is willing to come to Los Angeles, but unfortunately, the Lakers have no intention of Wang Tomorrow, which has already made a name for itself after entering the Finals.

Another team in Los Angeles, the Clippers, owner Sterling, is notoriously slamming the door, and when he heard that it would cost $5 million or more to hire Wang tomorrow, he directly announced that he would give up.

The most powerful thing Sterling did back then was refusing to pay $1,000 to the midfield balloon that the fan hit during the game.

After these teams are discharged, the teams on the western coastline that are connected with Wang Mingming will gradually be able to choose.

In fact, Wang Tomorrow is more inclined to go to Portland to coach, but in the past season, the Trail Blazers, under the leadership of McMillan, achieved excellent results, entered the playoffs with the fourth place in the West, and played six games with the old powerhouse Rockets, you know, the Rockets are a strong team with the Lakers for seven games!

Therefore, the team is full of confidence that in the next few years, with the lineup of "Roy + Oden + Aldridge", it will definitely get a place in the West.

After thinking about it, the Trail Blazers management gave up the fight for Wang Tomorrow.

The situation is gradually becoming clear, and the only teams left to chase the king tomorrow are the Thunder, the Heat, the Bulls, the Suns, the Bobcats and the Kings.

Six teams, Wang Ming will choose one of them.

At the Hollywood Dream Hotel, Wang met with the Marouf brothers, the owners of the Kings.

The Ma'rouf brothers are the owners of the Kings, and compared with ordinary people, they can be regarded as the rich side, but compared with the many billionaires in the NBA, who are worth billions or even tens of billions, the two can only be regarded as ordinary people.

For a long time, the two brothers have been cautious and careful in running the Kings team, and this time Wang Ming made it clear that he wanted to travel west, which made them feel that it was a good opportunity.

In the past period, the Kings have been committed to the development of the Asian market, and there are many contacts and cooperation with China, such as preseason, they are very active in Asia.

But since the Chris Webb era, the king has completely fallen into the belly of the West, not only with poor performance, but also with a sharp decline in attendance and income in all aspects.

Last season, the Kings were 17-65, the lowest in the West and the league.

"Wang, we like China very much, and last year's Olympics, the two of us went to Beijing together, and it was really the best Olympics we have ever participated in."

The businessmen chatted very interestingly, and a wave of compliments made Wang Tomorrow listen to it, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Wang Mingming also praised: "I have long heard that the Maluf brothers are the heroes of the alliance........ Ahem, the best boss in the alliance, entrepreneur, I saw it today, and it was really extraordinary. ”

"Wang, the hotel price here is not cheap, I heard that you have been living here since last month?"

"Yes, my girlfriend is filming here, so I'm here to be there for her."

"Is it Gal Gadot?" Joe Malouf said with a smile, "I've seen the movie that you two acted in, Fast and Furious 4, it's very good. ”

"Very beautiful and sexy." The younger brother, Gavin Marouf, chimed in succinctly.

The three of them chatted for a while, and then Joe Malouf asked: "Wang, the Kings are now interested in inviting you to be the head coach of the Kings next season, and after we discussed it, we decided to increase the previous offer of $7 million by another $1 million, and your annual salary will reach $8 million, which is the highest price we can give you." ”

Wang Mingming's heart was shocked, $8 million, which is almost the highest annual salary among current NBA coaches.

Previously, Phil Jackson signed a three-year, $30 million contract with the Lakers, and Larry Brown also signed a five-year, $50 million contract with New York, but both places are megacities, and Sacramento dollars are not comparable, and now, the average NBA head coach contract is around 3 million to 8 million.

Gavin Ma'arouf added: "King, we are also giving you the rights to run the player sector, and you will be the head coach and president of player operations of the team! ”

"I led the 76ers to the championship, but I don't think I have fully proven myself, and you paid so much to invite me, what would have been the result if I hadn't played as expected?" Wang Mingqi said.

"We'll fire you!" Gavin Ma'a'Rouf said without hesitation.

Wang Tomorrow's breath stagnated, and Joe Ma'a's mouth was wide open, speechless.

Half a ring, Wang Mingming reacted, and then laughed out loud, the Ma'auff brothers are very interesting, although they came to invite Wang Mingming to be the head coach, but they also did not hesitate to say that if you don't perform well in the future, you will be fired.

"You're not thinking about messing around, are you?" Joe Maarouf asked suspiciously.

"Well, no......."

Wang Ming shook his head and denied: "The king has hoarded a lot of talented players in the past many years, and to be honest, we were very good last year, wasn't it?" ”

The laughter of the Americans was low, and Wang Mingming's ridicule made the two brothers laugh so hard that they almost burst into tears.

It's really rotten, not rotten, big brother.

A handful of bitter tears.

"Wang, we believe that you can lead the team out of the predicament, we will give you the greatest rights, the team will be completely your word, and build a new squad according to your will." Gavin Ma'a'Rouf said solemnly: "If you can lead the team to win the championship, we will also reward you with a bonus, which is a bonus clause written in the contract, and if it goes well, you will earn more than 10 million All-Star level earnings." ”
