"Now the whole world thinks the management of the Mavericks is crazy.”
American Airlines Stadium, Dallas, USA
The general manager of the Mavericks, Norm Soo, tried his best to meet Jiang Han in an office in the stadium.
" But only I know how important this deal is to us." Suo said with a smile." We've made a fortune!"”
Suo Nuli was the general manager of the 1996 Las Vegas Mavericks.
Although this general manager's name was a little old-fashioned, his background was not small.
In 1979, billionaire Donald Carter and Mavericks founding manager Norm Soe worked hard to establish an NBA team in Las Vegas. It wasn't until 1980 that the Mavericks finally joined the NBA during the All-Star Game.
In other words, Suo Nuli was the mother of the Mavericks.
He had accompanied the birth of the Houston Mavericks until now.
Moreover, this period of time would continue until the year 2000, when Mark Cooper took over!
"Jiang Han, let's get down to business. Choosing you is the common wish of the Mavericks management. This is the contract we are willing to offer you after reaching a consensus.”
Suo Nuli was not a general manager who liked to dawdle. He pushed a contract to Jiang Han.
Jiang Han also smiled.
"I don't like reading these words. You just need to tell me verbally.”
"Two years, 12 million USD, 1 1. The second year is a team option.”
What?
Hearing this, Jiang Han raised his eyebrows.
1 1, with the team option for the following year. This was the standard contract for first-round rookies in the 1996 NBA.
But what Jiang Han never expected was that the contract actually reached 12 million US dollars for two years!
The average annual salary of the contract was 6 million!
What level was this?
It would be normal if such rookie salaries happened after 2015.
However, in this era, this was definitely a sky-high contract!
This was even the price of an All-Star player!
It was completely conceivable what kind of reaction this contract would cause once it was announced.
Not long ago, Michael Jordan signed a one-year contract that was worth 30 million dollars and caused a sensation in the league.
In a few days, Jiang Han's rookie contract would also shake the NBA!
"Don't be surprised. I only offered a contract of the same value as Jamal Mashburn.”
Suo Neng was unusually relaxed about the shocking offer from Daras.
" Where should I sign?!" Jiang Han asked with a smile.
After asking, Jiang Han smiled and signed his name on the contract without even looking at it.
Jiang Han had no reason to reject such a sincere offer.
"This is just an insurance contract. There are still many related matters to be resolved later, so I suggest you sign a manager as soon as possible.”Suo said with a smile.
"Thank you for your reminder." Jiang Shou was also smiling.
Looking at the young man whom he had bet everything on, Suo Nuli couldn't help but smile.
"I look forward to the day when you can be like Michael and get a contract worth 30 million dollars a year. The Alliance might even create new terms.”
"That day won't be far away." Jiang Han smiled."Maybe after my rookie contract ends.”
Suo Nuli was a little dazed by Jiang Han's answer.
He could not believe that such words actually came from a young man who was not even 18 years old.
Based on his experience, Jiang Han's confidence and determination were destined to be extraordinary.
。。。
He signed the contract with Jiang Han in the morning. In the afternoon, Suo Nuli was not idle either. He immediately signed another rookie, Ilgauskas.
The NBA of this era was still very different from the future, not just in terms of 2 2 or 1 1.
After a player was selected, there was not much waiting. Usually, the signing would be completed within two weeks.
However, Suo Neng's offer to the brigade wasn't as ideal as Jiang Han's.
It was just an ordinary first-round contract, worth 1.8 million dollars for two years.
Fortunately, Big Z was still unaware of Jiang Han's rookie contract.
On the evening of the successful signing of the two players, the Mavericks 'management announced the contents of the two players' contracts.
All of a sudden, after Michael Jordan signed a one-year,$30 million contract with the Chicago Bulls, the NBA once again erupted into a heated discussion about the contract!
"China's Jiang Han has successfully signed with the Las Vegas Mavericks for 12 million in two years!
"Terrifying! With six million dollars a year, Jiang Han became the most expensive rookie in NBA history!”
"He hasn't even played a single game in the rookie season, yet he's already locking in the value of a celebrity?!!”
"The gambler, Dale, has gone crazy. What magic made them believe that Jiang Han is the savior of the Mavericks!”
As expected, Jiang Han's contract caused a heated discussion among countless fans.
