In view of the lesson of missing Da Yao last year, Nike gave the largest contract, with 4 million for 2 years, which is definitely a "sky-high price" for a player like Mo Wen who just accidentally started on top, but these contract invitations were all temporarily shelved by Mo Wen.

He didn't plan to make a fortune and leave, he didn't care about his image, there was no need to sell himself so cheaply.

Even Nike's seemingly sincere sneaker contract is far less than what he's worth now.

His agent John didn't understand it at first, but when his boss Steve Hughman learned about it, he scolded him and understood that Mo Wen is a Chinese player who has the ability to become a backup starter for a strong team, or an outside line who sells shoes, and he has to add money!

····

In the first game of the start, Mo Wen was going to go to Toronto, 200 kilometers away, with the team.

The Raptors' home court has some of the friendliest fans in the league, and the city's residents are generally of high quality and ethnically diverse. There is no home team atmosphere, which is one of the reasons why it is difficult for Raptors players to feel a sense of belonging.

When Mo Wen came on the stage, he received many exclamations and applause from the Asian audience on the sidelines.

He remembers that in his previous life, there was a UC marketing account ranked the 5 most friendly away games in the NBA, and there was no Raptors, and the Green Army's home field, North Shore Garden, was still on the list.

"Like Yao, you Asians are really popular with us here, didn't Vince (Kata) suggest to you before, come to our team if you can't get around." Before the game, Bosh also made a joke when he greeted Mo Wen.

"I can't get along with it, buddy can mix better than you now."

Mo Wen was just a little moved and extinguished the idea of the Raptor.

Although there are many Chinese in Toronto, the city is also very livable, and there is Bosh he is familiar with in the team, the geographical limitations are too great, and it is destined not to become a popular team in the league, and it is much more difficult to win the championship than the local team in the ugly country.

The Raptors won the championship in 19 years, which was basically God's feeding, and it was only when the time and the time were full that they barely overcame the geographical disadvantage.

And the management team of the Raptors is also very active, and now Carter has already had the idea of leaving because of them.

At the beginning of the season, the team's management (board of directors) replaced his mentor Coach Wilkens, laid off general manager Gould who favored him, and fired Chuck, the team doctor who had a good relationship with Carter.

Petty, chairman of the Raptors board, reassured Carter by promising to trade Nash and bring in Carter's idol Dr. J as general manager.

But in fact, Petty did not contact Dr. J a few times, and the matter of trading Nash was only briefly inquired once and there was no follow-up, and the new team coach did not regard him as the core of the team directly under the instruction of the management, and turned his head to spend all his energy on developing Bosh.

In addition, the team recently found an excuse to remove the parking space belonging to his mother's family, and no matter how dull people are, they can feel the taste, what the Raptors' management is paying attention to.

The Raptors, who were able to maintain a 50% win rate in the middle of the season, began to decline gradually as Carter's passivity changed.

After the start of the game, Mo Wen could clearly feel that Carter had lost his fighting spirit at his peak.

Carter, who has not yet suffered a serious decline in health, has maintained a sharp style on the offensive end, but has almost lost his former focus on the defensive end.

Although Carter's defense is not very strong, at least his attitude is correct, and he can shoot second among the four quarterbacks, but today he has obviously been slow to chase down the defense when facing Hamilton.

The coach of the Raptors who played in the back noticed the problem and directly did not let Carter defend against Hamilton, but to defend against Mo Wen, a rookie who has never had a sense of existence.

As a result, Mo Wen played again.

Carter's impression of Mo Wen is still that of the newcomer who was in average health but skilled in the summer training camp, but he didn't know that after a few months, Mo Wen's strength had more than two steps.

After he relaxed his vigilance, he was easily "sneak attacked" by Mo Wen several times.

Mo Wen's current feints are not even accurate for the defensive experts of the Pistons team, let alone Carter, who is not focused enough.

"Your strength has improved a lot, if it weren't for your skin, I would have thought it was a different person."

Carter, who was hit by Mo Wen a few balls, was not only not angry, but also had the heart to communicate with Mo Wen happily.

"Hey, it's far worse than you, I heard that you've been married for a while, and I haven't had time to congratulate you, so I'm going to have a drink after the game?"

Mo Wen didn't blame Carter for his professional attitude, he didn't taste the suffering of others, he didn't persuade others to be kind, and it was not his responsibility that Carter later wanted to leave the Raptors.

"Forget it, I'll accept it, it's too cold in Toronto this season, it's more comfortable for you to go home as soon as possible." Carter shook his head and refused.

He knew that Mo Wen had a good relationship with Bosh, and there would definitely be Bosh among the people he would invite, but he felt a little complicated about this little brother who was praised by the team, and the two of them didn't talk much in the team, let alone hang out together.

When the team rested, Larry Brown broke his promise, he did not limit Mo Wen's playing time, but repeatedly emphasized in front of Mo Wen not to shoot three-pointers other than the bottom corner.

Mo Wen's defense in the first two quarters was not bad, but only two three-pointers made Larry Brown very unhappy.

Defending you is Carter, one of the four quarterbacks in the league today who was against Iverson in the Eastern Conference finals three years ago, how dare you shoot three points on his head, breaking through is what you should do!

Mo Wen wanted to tell him that with the current physical fitness gap between him and Carter, even if Carter was shaken off, there was a risk of being caught up, and why didn't he shoot three points when Carter let him go more than one step.

Carter's defense is not serious, but it is not to the point where he will be in the open-minded way next year, and there is a risk of being run over by Bosh to help defend when he breaks inside.

Mo Wen looked at it, Bosh's dog thing didn't do anything else in this game, so he kept holding back and wanted to cover him, and there were a few times when he didn't share the ball quickly, he was killed by this dog thing.

"Detroit is really full of bad guys, and your elbows are more than twice as heavy in the summer." Bosh rubbed his aching ribs from his elbow and gritted his teeth.

"You're not bad, it's only been a long time, and you, a thick-eyed guy, have learned to make fouls, and you're getting more and more of a girl!"

Mo Wen shook his hand with an unfortunate face.

He was fouled by a star player like Carter, after all, it is normal for someone to have a whistle as a superstar, and what he didn't expect was that Bosh also played with him today.

With less than nine free throws in the third quarter, Bosh made more free throws than Carter today.

"You're embarrassed to say that I, Carter didn't touch you just now, and you fell, not to mention that you did a really good job as a cleaner!." Bosh glanced at Mo Wen with disgust and mocked.

"Oh, then I have to mention that someone was dunked by Rashid today, that ball should be selected as one of today's top 10 goals, and you have to be famous to be famous." Mo Wen said not to be outdone.

Bosh: "You bastard!"

Mo Wen: "I'm your father!" ”

Milicic off the court watched Mo Wen and Bosh spray each other passionately on the court, his eyes were full of longing, this is the basketball between men in his dreams.

The game was decided in the third quarter, and because of the starters mentioned by Mo Wen, the Pistons' offense became a lot smoother.

Mo Wen's projection ability and ball ability are stronger than Prince's, and the tactics are still the same as before, and the Pistons' offense has obviously improved a lot after changing to a mature executor.

Prince is just a talented sophomore after all, and it's good enough to be able to work on defense, and it's unrealistic to expect him to perform on the offensive end.

With five experienced players on the floor, you don't need any complicated tactics, and you can play with the fluidity of Princeton's complex system on their individual abilities – if a team doesn't have a basket, that's another story.

"If the No. 3 position is not strong, it's actually not bad to put Mo on it." Woodson sighed meaningfully after the game.

After only a moment's thought, Larry Brown shook his head.

"This kid is still too tender, let's observe again."

Larry Brown is not completely without rookies, in the 76ers he selected Tim Thomas was appointed as a rookie, and later selected Larry Pepper can also get an average of 20 minutes per game in his rookie period. But both rookies are standard "black and hard" type players.

For a player like Mo Wen who plays skillfully but has an average body, Larry Brown is not optimistic about his performance in the playoffs.

Mo Wen played 34 minutes in this game, shooting 6 of 10, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and a total of 16 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.

After the game, Mo Wen did not return with the team, but took Milicic to stay in Toronto and pinch Bosh with each other... Or rather, small gatherings.

This is not Mo Wen's behavior alone, many players have taken leave to stay in Toronto together.

Because "M·J" of the ugly country music industry will hold a concert here tomorrow.

M.J.'s tour in Detroit is scheduled for next month, and the Pistons are going to play away at that time, and it is impossible to catch up unless they take a rocket back and forth, and those who have checked the calendar have bought tickets in advance and even asked for leave in advance.

No one can stop a black man from going to MJ's concert, just as no one can stop a white man from going to a Monroe show.

"Where's the ticket?"

"F**K, why don't you buy it yourself?" Bosh scolded and took out two golden glittering tickets and handed them to Mo Wen.

"My annual salary is only 400,000, and you have 4 million, are you embarrassed to let me spend money when you come to your territory?" Mo Wen said confidently, and then divided the ticket in his hand and gave it to Milicic.

"I, I can pay." Milicic took the ticket and said a little embarrassed.

“No，no，no！ Dark, you should never talk to a rich black man if you want to be friends with them. Mo Wen hurried to stop Milicic from digging out his wallet before Bosh could scold.

"CB and I are brothers, and you are my brothers, so everything we spend in Toronto should be paid for by this rich brother!" Mo Wen said as he patted Bosh on the shoulder.

"That's the truth, but why didn't I find out that you were so shameless before?"

"Because you were a poor man before, I invited you!" Mo Wen patted his chest with a clear conscience and said.

Although Bosh was born into a relatively well-to-do family, his mother was a programmer and his father was an engineer, but his parents were no longer around, and his pocket money was severely limited for fear that he would learn from other black people and fool around.

In college, many times, Mo Wen, who is relatively wealthy, is entertaining.

Bosh's home is not far from the Raptors' home arena, a 20-minute drive away.

After entering the small villa, Mo Wen also asked teasingly if there were any female tenants, Bosh just waved his hand impatiently and asked Mo Wen to pick a room by himself.

Mo Wen is no stranger to this place, he lived in the summer training camp, but he didn't have a girlfriend, which really surprised Mo Wen.

Bosh changed jobs in less than a year when he was in college, why did he come to the NBA to make a lot of money but still abstain from sex?

After listening to the singer's concert the next day, Mo Wencai at the wine table finally knew the reason why Bosh was sad when he watched a concert and didn't even find a female ticket after making money. (You can drink alcohol at the age of 19)

"Ever since I joined the team, I've had the grace of the coach. There are more than a dozen people in the team, and the coach just favors me, so I persuaded the coach to be sure to be wet with rain and dew, but the coach didn't listen. Coach, spoil me, spoil me. Even the original Ka Fei, no, it was Carter, he didn't look at it with his eyes. ”

"Bro, I'm stressed, it's too hard."

Bang Dong –

Mo Wen and Bosh turned their heads to see that a goblet of special vodka had been dried up by Milicic.
