Chapter 133 Catching and Scoring (Korver)

Tang Tian finally chose to sign with Nike, but because there are still some details of the contract that need to be negotiated, the news has not been made public yet.

Drew is playing in the league. When there are games, the three brothers will play together, and when there are no games, they will train together.

The time came to August in a blink of an eye, Tang Tian had successfully reduced his weight to 93kg, and started the muscle building process arranged by Cecilia, which would last about a month.

After the muscle gain is completed, he will use the money from the endorsement of the sneaker contract to buy the skills of a catch and scorer (Korver), and then he will get twice the result with half the effort when he adapts.

This morning, before training started, Thompson was all smiles as soon as he entered the training hall. His expression was like a spring breeze, as if he met an unforgettable girl in a nightclub last night.

"Do you still have the strength to train?" Tang Tian couldn't help asking with a smile as this was the first time he saw Thompson's reaction like this.

"Strength?" Thompson looked at Tang Tian suspiciously.

"He said you were too tired at the nightclub last night." Walker said with a smile, Tang Tian had teased him like this before.

"You bastard." Thompson pushed Tang Tian with a smile, but he was not angry. It seemed that something really happened.

"Let's talk, what's good, let's start today's training in a good mood." Tang Tian said.

"Nike talked to my agent about the contract yesterday, and it's almost done." Thompson said.

"Good news." Tang Tian nodded.

"Just good news? Guess how much?" Thompson said mysteriously.

"I can't guess." Tang Tian shook his head.

"2.8 million in 4 years! Don, I won you again!" Thompson said a little excitedly.

In the past two months, he has lost to Tang Tian every day in the three-point game, but this momentum has changed since the draft. His pick is higher than Tang Tian, ​​and now he has received the endorsement contract before Tang Tian. He won't lose the three-pointer again.

"I..." Tang Tian hesitated to speak. He felt that it was inappropriate to reveal the fact that he also accepted the endorsement contract and was older than Thompson at this time.

Walker couldn't help laughing on the sidelines.

"Let's play three-pointers," Thompson said suddenly, really wanting to confirm that everything had changed.

"Now?" Tang Tian was a little surprised. If he hadn't started training, his body wouldn't be too accurate.

"Yes." Thompson said that he had gone to the three-point line.

Tang Tian walked over, Thompson was going to score three points, and he would accompany him at any time.

Thompson shot first and only scored 15 of 25 goals. It is true that the shooting rate will not be too high if there is no activity.

Tang Tian continued to shoot. His shots were not too accurate, but he still scored 19 out of 25 goals.

Without any suspense, Tang Tian defeated Thompson again.

"Impossible, why?" Thompson held his head in his hands, with an expression of incomprehension.

Walker couldn't help laughing on the sidelines.

"Kemba, what are you laughing at?" Thompson rolled his eyes at him.

"No, it's nothing." Walker suppressed a smile. He watched Thompson being abused by Tang Tian every day, and he probably guessed that Thompson's confidence came from the sneaker endorsement contract.

"It's really nothing?" Thompson looked straight at him.

"Really not." Walker tried hard to hold back his laughter.

"Don't you say that I let Uncle Mike ignore you." Thompson pulled out Procopio.

"No, do you really want to say it?" Walker hurriedly waved his hand.

"explain."

"Okay, you asked me to say, actually... Tang signed the endorsement contract a week ago." Walker could only speak at last.

"What? Why don't I know?" Thompson felt that life was a bit dark.

"Because the details of the contract have not been negotiated, and I only know because I have the same agent as him." Walker spread his hands and raised them, saying that this is what you have to let me say.

"What company? How much?" Thompson asked.

"Really?" Walker couldn't bear to hit Thompson.

But seeing Thompson's threatening expression, he said it right away.

"2 years, 2.6 million, from Nike."

2.6 million in 2 years, or 1.3 million in 1 year, almost twice as much as Thompson.

"come.on!" Thompson reached out and patted his head.

He really had an illusion in front of him...

"The Chinese market was considered in my contract, so in fact we are almost the same, Clay." Tang Tian comforted.

"Yes, we are tied this time, but I won't lose to you in the NBA." Thompson also knew that Tang Tian was comforting him. After all, even if it was a tie, he was the 11th pick, and Tang Tian was the 31st pick. But he was in a good mood and recovered immediately.

"Well, I'm waiting for that day." Tang Tian nodded.

This is just a small episode of training. Although Thompson was hit, he has a good temper and a strong mental capacity. After a while, he began to train hard again, preparing to make a comeback for himself in the NBA.

A few days later, Nike and Tang Tian successfully signed a contract and announced the news to the public.

Although the specific endorsement amount will not appear in Nike's official news, but this kind of thing will inevitably leak from insiders.

Social media is buzzing again.

"2 years and 2.6 million! Please note, this is a rookie with the 31st pick! Tang is really incredible!"

"I feel sorry for a wave of Kawhi Leonard. They are all rookies I stabbed. I heard that he is only 500,000 a year (#￣～￣#)"

"I also heard that Klay Thompson is only 700,000 a year (#￣～￣#)"

"Normally, the salary of Lotto Show's endorsement contract this year is estimated to be at the level of 500,000 to 1 million."

"Haha, my Connecticut husky is the biggest winner this year!"

"As a Duke fan, firmly boycott the huskies!"

"North Carolina fans support upstairs!"

"Arizona fans silently go up."

"Kentucky fans passing by silently watching."

...

Although it was still all kinds of crooked buildings, they could clearly feel that Tang Tian's constant exposure had already made them remember the name completely.

The rookies of the Spurs have always kept a low profile, but Tang Tian changed the fan's stereotype and became Tang Tian, ​​a Spurs rookie who is not low-key.

The signing fee for the endorsement contract is paid once a year. Shortly after Tang Tian signed the contract, there was an extra 677,000 US dollars in his account.

The annual endorsement fee of 1.3 million, after deducting the federal tax and the commission of the broker, as well as the city tax and medical insurance, is almost the same money (Texas is exempt from state tax).

(Note: The agent's commission in the endorsement contract will be much higher than in the contract, and Feigen's commission is around 20%.)

Tang Tian pulled out the system interface again, and his krypton gold value also skyrocketed from the original 23,000 to 700,000.

He had a goal earlier, so he directly chose to exchange for the catch scorer (Korver) at this moment.

Just after he redeemed this skill, some changes occurred on his attribute panel.

The third day of the countdown to launch.
