Chapter 75: Lin Han's problem

"Recently, more and more people have come to Mr. Scott, and there are more and more telephones, faxes, and even letters. I really did not expect that a team like us has always been the least sense of existence. Now it’s like this. If it’s not that our office is still so shabby, I thought that the team we played for was the New York Knicks or the Los Angeles Lakers."
"Ha ha ha, this is not all Lin, who told him not to find an assistant or agent, those companies can not find his personal contact information, so they can only come to our team, you see, just The general manager called Lin to the office again. I heard that there was a self-recommended broker again. You counted, which is the number in the most recent period?"
"You don't need to count at all. You can't count at all. There are at least a hundred of them, but since Mr. Scott has invited Lin Han this time, this time it should be a big-name broker. You Why can't Lin Han hire an assistant or an agent? Is he planning to keep this position for his family? For example, his parents and brothers?"
　　 "How is it possible, Lin is an orphan, there are only two sisters and one sister, there is no family suitable for being an agent at all, you would not think Lin Han will find his sister as an agent? Hahaha"
On November 24, 1993, the day after the game between the Jazz and the Mavericks, after Lin Han came to the team from home early in the morning, he was invited by the general manager Scott Redden to the office. In the manager's office, a guy who made Lin Han very strange is tangled with Lin Han, but at this time Lin Han's face is not very good-looking, this tangled guy who makes Lin Han very uncomfortable is naturally nba's big name 'Agent Mark Termini.
Speaking of this Mark Termini, although many nba fans may not be very familiar with it, it is not so prominent in nba. It is even more incomparable than Jordan’s agent David Falke, but this guy is in nba's management and player circles are so eloquent, it is really famous.
Because this guy is a big pit, one of the worst-known people in the nba agent world, this Mavericks now headed player Jim Jackson’s agent can be said to be the biggest culprit in the humiliating record of the Mavericks winning 11 wins and 71 losses last season. Last season, the 1992-1993 season, after the Mavericks picked Jim Jackson with the fourth overall pick, they were preparing for a big fight. Although the Mavericks were rebuilding, the team’s lineup was not bad. There are still all-star players in the team. The biggest shortcoming in the lineup is the position of the forward. This also led to the Mavericks picking Jim Jackson in the fourth pick in 1992.
You should know that although Lin Han’s location was called the draft year in 1993, it is really a little compared to 1992. In the 1992 nba draft, not only the two gods of O’Neill and Mourning were sitting, these two rookies The season is all 20+10 players, even in the 84 years known as the golden generation, the rookie played 20+10 is Olajuwon, and the average score of 20 is Jordan and Olajuwon, even 84 There are 8 rookies who averaged 10 points a year for rookies. Only Jordan and Olajuwon scored 15 points per game. What about the 1992 rookie? In the rookie season, there are 2 people averaging more than 20 points per game, 7 people averaging more than 15 points per game, 14 people averaging more than 10 points per game, and more than just scoring. The same is true for other data.
It can be said that in 1992, the Mavericks chose Jim Jackson because of defects in the second and third positions. Even if Jim Jackson is not selected, the Mavericks have a lot of choices. This can also be seen from the recognition of the Mavericks Jim Jackson. The fourth pick was given to him, but what shocked the Mavericks fans and management and even the entire NBA was that after the Mavericks chose Jim Jackson, Jim Jackson’s agent, which is now lobbying Lin Han’s name The Mark Termini guy said he would not let Jim Jackson sign without a big contract.
　　 This can also be seen from the embarrassment of the Mavericks last year. The rookie they chose will not report to the team. Who can reason? Now the treatment enjoyed by nba rookies simply makes these nba teams point out that as long as the players are not willing, the team can only wait, in addition to waiting, in addition to price increases, there is no way.
　　 And the final result, as the fourth pick of the 1992 draft year, Jim Jackson played only 28 games for the Mavericks last season, why only played 28 games? That's because, with the encouragement of his agent, Jim Jackson didn't sign with the Mavericks until the end of the season, which made the Mavericks who were originally committed to the playoffs shamefully play an 11-71 record. The incident really shocked the NBA and shocked the entire professional sports world in the United States.
So recently, there has been a team owner and a general manager of the team hope that the league can have some restrictions on the nba rookies. These young people are now more and more arrogant. If there is no restriction, maybe someday a genius The rookie dare to open a ten-year high-value contract of 100 million US dollars with the team. Don't think this is impossible. This is very possible. The final result is likely to be that the team has to go.
"Lin, you should understand that I am the one who can maximize your value. You even have a brighter money path than Jordan. What you are missing is a person who can convert your value into money, and I am Such a person"
　　 Lin Han is the sweet bun that all NBA agents are competing for now. This is undoubtedly, how can more than 300 agents in a player league like Lin Han be unimpressed? Even Jordan's agent had contacted Jazz, hoping that the Jazz could inform Lin Han, but in the end Lin Han still rejected Jordan's agent David Falke's offer.
　　 Even Jordan’s agent Lin Han looked down upon him, let alone this Mr. Termini?
　　So when Lin Han directly rejected Termini without reservation, the agent of Jim Jackson left Scott Ryden's office with a very ugly face.
　　 "fvck, but a small rookie, really thought he was Jordan now"
　　Mr. Termini's mumble and sarcasm were clearly heard by Lin Han and Scott Ryden.
　　 "Mr. Scott, you will help me refuse the harassment of these agents in the future, I have no interest in them"
Lin Han also gently said to the general manager of his team after watching Termini leave, and at this time Scott Ryden also shook his head in despair, he really did not know why Lin Han would So repelling these brokers
　　Does Lin Han feel bad about nba's agent? Yes, it’s for sure. NBA’s agents can bring a lot of benefits to players. This is undoubtedly, but similarly, NBA’s agents are not good people. There are only more than 400 players in NBA. There are almost 400 people. On average, there is one player and one agent, but the reality is that a big-name agent often carries more than a dozen or even more than twenty players. The nba is close to 400 agents. There are no players underneath.
　　 Although there are many nba players, they are still more monks and less flesh. In this case, how does an agent without players get players? Naturally it is to stage various conspiracies and even some very damaging means, but what about agents with players on hand? In order to ensure the resources of the players they own, they will cater to their players to do any bad things, eat and drink, and bet on drugs-no worries, and even some unscrupulous agents will get some handle.
The nba player union was only established in 1983. After all, the average annual salary of nba players in the 1960s was only 10,000 dollars. In the 1970s, because of the magician and Larry Bird, the commercial value of nba increased greatly, and the salary of players increased. Before entering NBA, the average salary of NBA players has exceeded 500,000 US dollars. In this case, the player union also has the need to exist. NBA agents also quickly expanded. It can be said that after the establishment of the NBA player union, These brokers of nba began to madly plunder and attack each other.
The final result is that in the past few years, some people reported that the average nba player has an illegitimate child. No one of the nba players is green. The yellow gambling is basically contaminated. The final result is that even the magician Johnson is infected. With AIDS, NBA prospered because of money, but also because of money. In the end, there was really no way for the NBA Players’ Union to set up a lot of obstacles to these agents in 1991 and last year. The player's agent is gone, but in only two years, these restrictions of the player union have almost no effect.
　　As long as they are willing, and as long as a person pays only 10,000 US dollars, they can become nba's brokers. It can be said that in such a circle, does Lin Han dare to give everything to someone in this circle?
Those casual encounters can find an unknown agent, and then the story of this unknown agent quickly helping the protagonist to achieve the business empire is always just a story. Those who casually meet a beautiful agent and then beautiful women The talents of the agent are given to the protagonist in both empty spaces, which is also an illusory story. Does dare Lin Han, the beauty of the agent circle of nba dare to touch?
　　 He would rather not make a little less money than to touch these so-called potential small brokers who are always ready for the protagonist. As for those well-known brokers, take Jordan’s broker David Falke as an example.
As Falke’s agent for Jordan, it’s impossible for him to have only Jordan. He also has a famous player named Xavier McDaniel. This small forward is a forward who scores 20+ all the year round. Although he has never been selected as an All-Star, he is a famous player in the league, and he is excellent in both offense and defense.
This guy went to the New York Knicks from supersonic two years ago, in that year, this guy in the playoffs of the New York Knicks and the Bulls, finished the Bulls upstart second leather Pi, know that year's skin The second lord just became an All-Star starter. After ending his rookie contract, he signed a super big contract with the Bulls. In addition, he helped Jordan defeat the magician and let Jordan be the god. At that time, the second prince was simply The pinnacle of life, even the team's boss, Jordan, is spoiled for him.
As long as Pi Er's words, Qiao Da's master can even go up and down the fire for him. Of course, this is definitely a bit exaggerated, but in reality, it was the Eastern Conference semifinals of the New York Knicks and Bulls that year. Blasted by McDaniel, the Bulls, who were supposed to be able to win easily, were approached by the Knicks in the tiebreaker.
In the seven games of that series, Pi Eryi appeared in 12 of 2, 15 of 5, 15 of 13 or 4 of 11 and so on. This is very embarrassing data. Not only did the game's shooting rate seem to be a lot of mistakes and fouls, it was as humiliating as it was shameful, which made almost the entire bull darling at the time, and even Jordan was able to bear with his Pi Erye.
So after the series with the Knicks, Pi Pi told Jordan that he did not like the Knicks player, and then McDaniel, whose contract with the New York Knicks expired, left New York to the Celtics that had fallen. .
　　 Isn’t the New York Knicks reluctant to renew the contract with McDaniel? Naturally not, New York awarded him a three-year contract of 8.1 million, but it was eventually rejected by Jordan’s agent David Falke, who is also McDaniel’s agent.
And when McDaniel finally left the Knicks and went to the Celtics, even the New York Knicks boss Chequez said: nba rules are no rules, and the Knicks boss can say such a frustrating sentence should be What a sad reminder, even the Knicks coach Pat Riley who had just come to the team at that time jumped angrily, UU Reading www. In the face of the Knicks boss and the best coach of the NBA, David Falk said that McDaniel must get out of the Knicks. The reason why Falk did this is that Jordan does not want his good friends to not. Just happy.
　　If Lin Han stalls a big-name broker like Falke, I am afraid he will still be counting money even if he is sold. Who can rest assured.
Therefore, after entering the NBA, Lin Han did not think about his agent problem, but after much consideration, he finally chose to go it alone. In the history of NBA, there are many such players, such as the Knicks. Legendary center, the first player in the history of nba to take the All-Star mvp, regular season mvp and finals mvp player Willis Reed, he negotiated and signed a contract for himself.
　　 "Mr. Scott, how do you have any commercial contract in the future, please help me a lot"
Of course, Lin Han wouldn’t think he was as stupid as Reed. At that time, Reed was only able to get on his own. Now Lin Han is not a mountain, but a jazz popular fried chicken. He has such privileges to let the team give him Some effort, such as Lin Han's previous game with the Knicks, who ate a technical foul, this money Lin Han did not come out, but the team helped out.
　　If it is not necessary, Lin Han does not want his elder sister to help himself deal with these matters of nba. Now the nba circle is too messy and filthy.
　　 "What a troublesome kid"
　　Looking at the back of Lin Han's departure, the general manager of the Jazz, Scott Ryden, can only shake his head and smile bitterly. This guy is really wonderful, whether it is on or off the court.
