Chapter 36 [Resolute and Resolute, Team Selection Suggestions]
"Brother, you made a decision too quickly, right?" Jason Richardson couldn't help but shout: "This is choosing a broker, not buying things in the supermarket."
Guo Xu smiled and said, "No, I have already made a lot of plans for my NBA career. I want a spokesperson who supports my decision, instead of finding a big-name agent to point fingers at me and obey his arrangements. I think Hapi is very suitable. He has vision. My overall data is so poor. He can see that I can play in the NBA, so I found it first."
"But..." Richardson wanted to persuade him, but the fat man interrupted him.
"Guo, I will definitely protect your interests with all my heart and act in the direction you expect." Hapi Watels smiled and his flesh trembled. He couldn't believe the talk was going so smoothly.
The college players he had looked for before said that they needed time to consider it, and then they would not consider him. Guo Xu didn't seem to be a joke, he was the kind of person with a decisive and decisive personality.
Decisiveness is a kind of character and a kind of temperament. People with this kind of character are easy to admire, envy and rely on it. Because decisive people can often make the right choices quickly at critical moments.
Hapi is very confident in his abilities, but he lacks opportunities. Guo Xu's trust makes him feel very happy.
Richardson kicked Guo Xu under the table. He didn't think it was reliable when he saw the fat man. Guo Xu smiled at him and gave a wink, meaning "I know what's going on in my heart."
"Let's leave the contact information and sign the contract after the finals. What you said before can guarantee it, right?" Guo Xu asked.
Hapi quickly patted his chest and promised: "Of course, you will get an adult salary of 2%, and a commercial endorsement of 12%, which will not increase in the future. You will always be my first client in the NBA, and I will only make suggestions, and the decision is in your hands."
“So happy cooperation.”
The two shook hands hard, and they both felt that they had made a lot of money.
Hapi is a fan and knows basketball. After watching yesterday's game, he firmly believed that Guo Xu would definitely play in the NBA and was very promising, but he had no chance to perform in the Spartans before and lacked fame.
Guo Xu was foresighted. There were no more than five basketball agents who could remember their names in his previous life, including the fat man in front of him. His name "happy" is so easy to remember, and the driver of Iron Man is called this.
Hapi will be the top ten NBA salary agents in many seasons in the future. The total salary of his player clients is over 100 million, but the number of All-Star players under him is the least among top agents. Helping players who are not All-Stars sign high-paying and long-term contracts actually shows the ability of an agent.
In his previous life, Hapi helped many players who were killed and did not deserve their lives. He was on sports news for this and was a famous fool in the circle of agents.
Hapi helped the "little bully" Stadameier join the Knicks for the maximum salary. This is a super bad contract, which ruined the Knicks. After only one season, Xiao Si became a representative of high salary and low energy, and frequently fell into injuries, including the injury to the PK fire extinguisher after the game...
He had just signed a big contract for Monta Ellis and the Warriors. Ellis was seriously injured by electric bike during the offseason. The Warriors management wanted to cancel the contract. Later, Ellis, who was only suitable for playing the sixth man, became the leader of the Warriors and led the team to fish in the regular season every year.
There is also drunkard Ty Lawson, who was abolished as soon as he signed a big contract. Later, he went to China to develop and was still a defensive black hole in the CBA.
In short, Guo Xu is very optimistic about Hapi's ability. He often makes the general manager of a team ignore the players' weaknesses and potential injuries like he has been slapped, offers high-paying and long-term contracts, and even builds a team with him as the core.
Guo Xu promised to sign the contract, and the relationship between the two suddenly became much closer. Richardson was still worried and deliberately "set questions" to test Hapi, wanting to see his abilities.
Richardson asked: "If I were in the draft this year, which team would you think would be the best for me?"
Hapi had done his homework before and immediately replied: "Orlando Magic, they lack the striker and swinger, and there are no super scorers. If you join, you will definitely be trained with your physical fitness. As long as you have enough power to take action and have a coach to arrange tactics, you will easily become a star in the future."
Richardson didn't believe it, but he just felt that the magic jersey was pretty good-looking.
Guo Xu thought that Happy had a good idea, and going to Magic was not the correct answer, but it was quite good at the moment, because Magic had not yet traded with the Pistons, and he had not dug up Tracy McGrady.
In Guo Xu's previous life, the Magic had great ambitions. In the summer of 2000, they wanted to dig the Spurs inside Tim Duncan to form the Big Three and strive for the championship.
Unfortunately, man's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. Duncan rejected the Magic and stayed behind the Spurs; after Hill joined, he became synonymous with the "Glass Man", and was reimbursed year after year, and his strength dropped sharply; only McGrady unexpectedly obtained privileges after joining, and soon became an All-Star and one of the four major points guards.
If Richardson had the ball rights in the Magic and he didn't dare to say his record, the data would definitely be bad.
Richardson asked again: "What about him? Which NBA team do you think he is suitable for? Where will you arrange for him to try before the draft?"
Hapi looked at Guo Xu and asked with his eyes because Guo Xu had just said that he had a plan.
"Tell me what you think, maybe we will coincide?" Guo Xu smiled while cutting the steak.
Hapi talked: "I think there are two teams for you, the Lakers and the Spurs."
"What's the reason?" Guo Xu nodded. He is a rebirth and knows how powerful these two teams are. In recent years in his previous life, the two teams each won three championships, and only in 2004, the Pistons won the championship in an upset.
Hapi analyzed: "The two teams are very strong, have super stars, are championship teams, and have excellent coaching staff. The new players have great benefits to playing under famous coaches in the early stage. Moreover, neither team is good at point guard, you must have a chance to perform. Especially the Spurs, the starting lineup is veteran Avery Johnson, you can be his successor, and maybe you can become the starter in one season."
Johnson is nicknamed "Little General". He is only 178CM tall and ranks first in the history of the Spurs. He has achieved great success with the Spurs. His outstanding leadership ability and courageous style have made him the boss of the locker room. His prestige has even surpassed David Robinson, the team's number one star. Even after Duncan entered the league, he could only regard himself as a younger brother.
Guo Xu swallowed a piece of meat and smiled and said, "That's right, what about the Lakers?"
Hapi thought about it and said earnestly: "In addition to the lineup factor, the Lakers' advantages are also geographical location. Los Angeles has a high exposure rate, so I use it as an alternative. But their experienced veteran Ron Harper at No. 1, just signed a five-year middle-class contract with Derek Fisher last season, which expired in 2004. With Tyrone Lou, you have to compete with the three for playing time."
Richardson looked at Hapi a few times and felt that this fat man had some skills. It was not something that ordinary people could do when the situation of each team was open, and it was not possible for senior fans to do it.
Guo Xu smiled and said, "Your suggestions are good. I will compete for MOP tomorrow. Let's talk about the specific holiday."
"Okay." Hapi nodded, knowing that it would be more beneficial to him to follow the other person's words.
After dinner, they said goodbye to Hapi and returned to the hotel. Richardson said again: "I still think you are too casual in choosing an agent, and this person is unfamous."
"But he has the ability. I believe he will become a top agent in the future. I am very accurate in view of people. I have become a genius after being elbowed."
