Lin Feng knew Bill Duffy before.
As a top agent in the NBA, he was once a member of Team Yao.
Bill Duffy was known for his upright values, good character, and sincere service to his players.
He was born into a military family and used to be a basketball player, which made him very different from many agents who only cared about profit.
Bill Duffy had repeatedly rejected players with bad records.
They even paid out of their own pockets to compensate for the losses of their players.
Greed, cunning, scheming, unscrupulous, and other dirty words to describe an agent could not be found in Bill Duffy.
He was more willing to treat his players as friends, not just clients with interests.
In 2003, due to his mistake, Anthony Caite lost 4 million dollars.
Bill Duffy used all his resources to help Anthony Kate sign a $1 million contract with the Spurs. He also took out $3 million from his own pocket to compensate Anthony Kate for his losses.
After Lin Feng checked the information about Bill Duffy online and learned the truth from Big Yao, he immediately decided to sign the contract with Bill Duffy.
He was able to gain the trust of the good old Yao and Nash, and the two of them had never thought of changing agents after entering the NBA for many years.
It showed that Bill Duffy, who treated his players as friends and had a good character, was indeed a good person.
In a high-end Chinese restaurant in Los Angeles.
Lin Feng saw Bill Duffy, who was almost two meters tall.
It was rare to have such a high-ranking manager.
After the introductions, the three of them got down to business.
"Lin, it took me a lot of effort to get Dayao to recommend me to you.”
"I've watched all of your matches live, including the round of 64 where you led the team to reverse the situation!”
"You are simply too outstanding. In my eyes, you are definitely the strongest among the rookies this year!”
"Back then, I was able to help Big Yao settle all the operational arrangements for the draft. Now, I can also help you settle it perfectly, and it will be even more detailed!”
Bill Duffy had a straightforward personality, and he spoke a lot as soon as he got to know him.
Like the other managers, he had been watching the matches since March Madness.
In addition to targeting the popular rookies, he also tried to find players with potential.
And Lin Feng was the biggest surprise!
"Lin, from the predictions of the major talent show websites, it's almost certain that you will be selected in the top six, but in my judgment, you are very likely to be picked in the top three.”
"Your current draft market is very good. You will receive many team trial invitations.”
"But I don't recommend you all go. I'll arrange and settle this.”
"I've already formulated a plan and plan for your situation in advance, but I still need to hear your true opinion and make more detailed improvements.”
"Lin, can you tell me about your team?”
"If there are any other requests, I will contact and communicate with those teams.”
"At the same time, I'll arrange a special training camp for you to prepare for the trial training.”
Lin Feng was very satisfied with Bill Duffy's service attitude when he kept asking questions about everything.
However, NBA draft tryouts were usually held two weeks before the draft.
Of course, some teams would send out trial invitations in advance.
Lin Feng revealed his thoughts to Bill Duffy.
"I hope to go to a big market team and get more attention and exposure.”
"Although it might look cool to lead a small-scale team like LeBlanc James to the finals last year, that's not the stage I want.”
"I don't mind how bad the team's record is in the past, but I must be the core of the team!”
"I have no interest in helping others.”
"And those teams that have the ability to win the championship, I will not participate in their trial training.”
"I don't want to cling to someone's thigh and get a few championship rings as a non-core player!”
"Bill, do you understand what I mean?”
Since he had been reborn, Lin Feng wanted to live a carefree life.
He didn't want to be someone else's assistant, and he didn't want to win the championship.
Although the Celtics formed Garnett, Pierce, and Ray Allen in the offseason last year, it was the first time that the league's superstars took shortcuts to win the championship.
However, Lin Feng still wanted to be the absolute core of the team and lead the team to win the championship or even establish a dynasty.
In the NBA, which was becoming more and more competitive, he had taken an unusual path to win the championship.
Bill Duffy and Big Yao were shocked. They didn't expect this rookie who hadn't participated in the draft to have such ambition.
However, both of them had witnessed Lin Feng's terrifying strength with their own eyes. Ambition was the driving force.
Especially the confidence that Lin Feng showed, even Big Yao couldn't compare to him.
Bill Duffy was a citizen of the United States. He admired people who were powerful and confident.
Those NBA superstars were extremely confident from the moment they started playing basketball.
"Okay, Lin, I understand what you mean!”
"I admire your confidence!"
"I will contact those rebuilding teams with first-round signings, especially those with big markets.”
"The New York Knicks, the Chicago Bulls, the Miami Heat, and the Los Angeles Clippers are all interested in the first and second position players.”
"The New York Nets also have first-round picks, but they have Vincent Carter and Jason Kidd, and they seem to prefer a big man inside.”
"Lin, we will temporarily accept the trial training invitations of these four teams. If there are any changes in the future, I will inform you immediately and make adjustments quickly.”
Lin Feng nodded with satisfaction.”
Next.
Westbrook, Love, and Bamort were all busy looking for their agents to arrange the next special training, as well as the trial training for the draft.
Lin Feng agreed to join them for the special training, but that was a week later.
After he and Bill Duffy settled the matters here, he took a plane back to China with Big Yao.
Big Yao was disqualified in February this year because of a fracture in his left foot.
He only took off his protective boots on April 2nd.
After that, he put on normal shoes and walked like an ordinary person.
He even went to the semifinals on the 5th and 7th to cheer for Lin Feng.
Lin Feng first went home to visit his parents and tell them that he was safe. At the same time, he told them that he was fighting for his country.
When he returned home, it caused a huge sensation.
Just like how he became the top scorer of the science county last year, it also caused a sensation and caused a lot of news.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the kid from the old Lin family is really amazing!”
"That's right. He's capable of both literature and martial arts. Whether it's reading or playing basketball, he can be the best!”
"In the past, my sports kid didn't even care about Lin Feng, calling him a bookworm. Now, I have a reason to beat him up. Look at how Lin Feng is so much better than him at basketball!”
" Elder Lin is so lucky to have such a good son. I heard that Big Yao brought the coach of the Chinese men's basketball team to Country M personally to invite him to join the national team. This Lin kid is going to represent the country in the Olympics.”
"His third uncle, is what you said true? Then I have to get Xiao Mei to find Xiao Feng quickly. I can't miss this opportunity. I see that they are becoming more and more compatible. Don't you think so?”
"Fifth Aunt, when Little Feng was young, he was mischievous and had poor grades. You often used him as a negative example and taught Little Mei not to learn from Little Feng, let alone get too close to Little Feng.”
"Is there? Did I say that? Why can't I remember? Little Feng is so outstanding. I've been praising him since he was young. He and our Xiao Mei are childhood sweethearts!”
"Pfft, hahaha ~~"
“......”
Lin Feng stayed at home for a day, intending to spend time with his parents.
However, there were some ways of the world that were super troublesome.
The leaders of the primary school, middle school, and high school alma mater, as well as the leaders of the county, town, and village, came to his house to congratulate him.
His neighbors, friends, and family came over and kept praising Lin Feng.
However, Lin Feng's parents were proud of the troublesome ways of the world. They smiled from morning till night.
The next day.
Lin Feng took a plane to Yanjing under his mother's grumbling.
Start a week of training!
