After one match, because of Bai Feng's reasonable performance, the system rewarded him with 90,000 USD.
It was equivalent to a small 100,000 yuan. This kind of harvest was not small!
With his seventh-ranked rookie contract, he only earned 2.8 million dollars a year. To earn this 2.8 million, he had to play at least 82 games in a season. Including the taxes he taught, he could earn less than 30,000 dollars per game on average.
100,000 yuan per game was equivalent to the income of an All-Star player in this era. Compared to a top-paid player, it was probably half of their income.
Therefore, this was probably the reason why Bai Feng did not care about the subtle salary difference brought about by the draft pick.
……
After taking a shower, it was supposed to be a night of celebration. However, the group of people led by Stasi, Joey, and Filton had already left, chatting and laughing. According to their previous discussion, they were probably going to a famous nightclub in New York to have fun.
In the locker room, only Bai Feng and Fields were still there.
They didn't call Bai Feng and Fields because the old people didn't like to play with newcomers?
Of course not. In fact, on a team, the old players, especially the core players, liked to bring the newcomers out to play. This way, not only could they consolidate their position in the team, but they would also have more face when they went out to play.
The reason why Bai Feng and Fields were left out was because they were too young. One was 19 years old, and the other was 20 years old.
In the United States, the law stipulated that one was not allowed to drink alcohol before the age of 21.
As for nightclubs, the main theme was of course alcohol, so almost all places had regulations. Under the age of 21, without the permission of the team, it was impossible to enter such places as individuals.
In other words, it would take another year and a half before Bai Feng could go to such a place like his teammates.
At this moment, Bai Feng looked at Fields, who was changing his clothes, and said casually," Landry, where are you going later?
Both of them were rookies of the year and were currently living in the free apartment provided by the team. They were usually closest to each other.
It had to be said that a team like the Knicks, which was in the midst of a deep reconstruction and had a lot of player turnover, was really suitable for newcomers to the league.
Although Bai Feng was the seventh pick, if he was placed on a team with a stable rotation, he definitely wouldn't get a starting position. It was even difficult to say if he would even be a reserve point guard.
As for Fields, the lower his rank, the harder it would be for him to stand out.
He was lucky that the Knicks had too many players. After several trades, there was no mature fourth player. Anyway, the team did not aim for results at this stage, so they simply let him start.
Unfortunately, he was too nervous today and did not perform well at all.
Hearing Bai Feng's question, Fields sighed and said,""I don't have any plans. I'm going home to sleep.”
It seemed that he was not in high spirits.
Bai Feng walked to his side and put his arm around his shoulder. He smiled evilly and said,"Landry, do you know if there's anything delicious nearby? Tonight on the field, you made a few mistakes, and I was the one who cleaned up your mess. That's why the opponent didn't break fast.”
This was the truth. Fields 'performance in this game was indeed terrible.
He had never seen such a big scene, nor had he thought that he would be starting in the first game of the new season, partnering with an All-Star player like Stoudemire.
Therefore, from the moment he went on stage, he began to feel nervous for no reason.
As a result, after Bai Feng passed the ball to him, he could not remember any of the actions that he should have done, and in the end, it became a mistake.
He had performed so badly three times in this match, if not five.
Fortunately, after every mistake, Bai Feng retreated to the front line of defense and disintegrated the opponent's fast attack.
If not for that, he would have been replaced by the manager long ago.
He nodded and said,"Alright, let's go. I'm also a little hungry."”
……
Hearing this answer, Bai Feng immediately smiled happily.
Fields was already used to Bai Feng's personality of being one person on the field and another person off the field.
After all, they had been living in the same apartment for a month and had been working together most of the time.
As for Bai Feng, he was only " steady as an old dog " on the court. After all, the system rules were like that.
Steadiness naturally meant restraining one's various impulses. Calming down and suppressing one's restless emotions required extremely strong willpower.
Bai Feng no longer liked such a calm personality. The system did not operate outside the arena, so he could do whatever he wanted.
The two of them had a simple meal, and Landry Fields generously gave them a meal.
After returning to his residence, Bai Feng chatted with his sister on his phone for a while and fell asleep early.
In the NBA, this was the life of most rookies who had just entered the league.
Due to their age, income, fame, and experience, their lives were still very simple.
However, in the near future, earth-shaking changes would definitely occur.
