Chapter 1018 There Are Really Many Guest Rooms in My House (3/5!)

Chapter 1018 There are really many guest rooms in my house (35!)

The reason why Demps signed this contract may be simple.

Anyway, there is no second suitable player. Ding Yanyuhang is a Chinese player and Tang Tian's national team teammate.

It doesn't matter who you sign, and it only costs $75,000.

Signing Ding Yanyuhang is the same as Tang Tian knew in his previous life when the Bucks signed Giannis Antetokounmpo's brother. It was all to make the team boss happy.

Moreover, Ding Yanyuhang has good mental attributes. He is a player who could get a big contract in China, but gave up the contract to pursue his dream of entering the NBA.

Although his talent is limited, he works hard enough and is the type of player that people like.

Moreover, Ding Yanyuhang is regarded as one of the most skilled players in Asia and has the opportunity to grow into a bench player.

After Tang Tian was surprised, he felt really happy.

Ding Yanyuhang played with him in the Rio Olympics before, and Tang Tian had a very good impression of him.

And as early as two years ago, FIBA ​​determined that the second World Cup (previously known as the World Championship, renamed in Spain in 2014) will be held in China.

Compared with Rio, the overall strength of the Chinese team has improved significantly in the past two years.

Yi Jianlian played steadily and is still the starting power forward in the Nets;

Guo Ailun has become the number one defender in China and even Asia, and is entering his personal peak;

Zhou Qi joined the Rockets one year earlier than in history. He occasionally performed well last season, but with Cousins ​​​​retired in the new season, he also received a good opportunity;

Now Ding Yanyuhang has signed a two-way contract with the Pelicans;

National team players such as Wang Zhelin, Abdul Saramu, Zhai Xiaochuan, and Kolan Bek also performed well after returning to the CBA after experiencing Rio and became the core figures of each team;

Coupled with the increase in Tang Tian's personal strength.

In 2019, the Chinese team may still have a chance to overthrow the American team again.

Of course, that will all happen later. Tang Tian is indeed very happy to see Ding Yan Yuhang now.

Seeing Tang Tian's mood, Dempsey felt happy in his heart.

This flattery is quite right.

Two two-way players, Caruso looks older than Bald, but like Ding Yanyuhang, both have relatively introverted personalities.

But it may also have something to do with the fact that they are two-way players. Compared with the rest of the team, they actually don't have much say.

To use a metaphor, buying lunch or donuts for the team is also Bryant's job, and it is not their turn.

But perhaps precisely because of this, they train harder than others, which also makes the atmosphere in the training camp even more exciting.

After the first day of training, Tang Tian invited Ding Yanyuhang to his home for dinner.

Meeting old friends in a foreign country and meeting Chinese people abroad always feel a sense of intimacy, let alone being teammates on the national team.

Ding Yan Yuhang also seemed a little cautious when he entered Tang Tian's manor.

It was really the first time in his life that he had seen this kind of luxurious manor comparable to Jordan's.

During the meal, the two of them also talked about many topics, ranging from the experience of the Rio Olympics to Ding Yanyuhang's experience in Dallas in the past year.

"Why didn't you stay in Dallas?"

What surprised Tang Tian before was that besides Demps signing Ding Yanyuhang, another thing was that he got first-hand information from Woj.

The Mavericks are planning to sign Ding Yanyuhang to a non-guaranteed contract this year.

"You know, people down there in Dallas..."

Ding Yan Yuhang didn't finish his words, but Tang Tian already knew what he was going to say.

The racial discrimination problem in Dallas was also a very important reason why he did not choose the Mavericks that year.

He thought of the whistle he had been blown when the men's basketball team played in the summer league in his previous life, which made him doubt his life. Even if some things were not shown on the surface, they were still there subconsciously.

Not to mention being in Dallas.

After eating and resting for a while, Tang Tian took Ding Yan Yuhang to his gym to train for a while.

With the gym, he doesn't have to go to the training hall, which is very convenient for Tang Tian.

Ding Yanyuhang was so excited that he was sweating profusely and didn't realize it.

"It's really convenient. We have an arena at home."

When he finished practicing, Ding Yanyuhang couldn't help but say enviously.

"You can stay here if you need it. I have quite a few guest rooms."

Tang Tian said.

"No, no, no."

Ding Yanyuhang's first reaction was very genuine. It is a Chinese habit to be polite.

"I have quite a few guest rooms."

"If you think you have anything to worry about, just pay me the rent. It's just like living in an apartment outside. Of course, you can use the arena for free."

Tang Tian was not being polite.

There are really many guest rooms in his manor, and the nanny will clean them when no one is staying there, so it would be a waste to leave them alone.

The same goes for the arena, which is usually maintained every day.

If you spend more than 100 million to buy a house, these logistics are necessary.

Of course, the most important thing is that he knows that it will be difficult for Ding Yanyuhang to find a house here, especially when he first came here.

When Jeremy Lin slept on the couch of Parsons and Fields, it was not only a joke, but also a status quo among the bottom players in the NBA.

There are so many people in the United States who can play ball.

"Then I won't be polite."

Ding Yanyuhang was no longer polite.

One thing that is better about him than other NBA players in the United States is that he has accumulated a lot of money in the CBA before, so he is relatively well off financially.

So he didn't have to borrow a sofa from Tang Tian to sleep on like Jeremy Lin had done.

"That's right!"

Tang Tian smiled and patted Ding Yan Yuhang on the shoulder.

Ding Yanyuhang lives with him, and they can go to the gym together when playing ball. Having multiple companions is actually more fun.

The Pelicans finalized a two-way contract, but they still have one final spot.

There are several options for this spot.

You can keep it to see the performance of Caruso and Ding Yanyuhang. If they play well, their contracts can be regularized;

You can also sign a few non-guaranteed contracts and let them play preseason games to see if there are any unexpected gains;

Of course, you can also sign no one and start the new season with a 14-man roster, which can maintain the flexibility of the lineup.

After all, there are trade deadlines and buyout deadlines ahead;

No matter what choice he made, Dempsey still found Tang Tian.

They first need to see if there are any candidates worth signing on the free market.

In fact, at this time point, it is less than a month before the start of the new season, and less than half a month before the start of the preseason.

Free agents, as long as they have some ability, have been signed.

Even if many contracts cannot be signed, they have already found a new home overseas.

The rest are basically players that no one wants.

There are veterans who are strong and old but unwilling to retire. They are strong enough to not be trusted by the NBA. There are also many problem players and injured players...

Due to various reasons, these basically miss the NBA in the new season.

But just when Dempsey gave Tang Tian the list, and after Tang Tian flipped through it, he unexpectedly found a very familiar name.
