Half an hour after the news of Wang Yi’s trade came out, another message came out:
After Wang Yi signed with the Lakers, he went back on his word. He was dissatisfied with the annual salary of US$20 million and actively requested a trade.
If you think about it for a moment, you will realize how nonsense this news is.
He went back on his word just after signing the contract. Is Wang Yi so brainless?
And the highest annual salary he can get this year is more than 28 million US dollars.
Just because he made more than 8 million US dollars to ruin his reputation, is Wang Yi so brainless?
Besides, Los Angeles is one of the two big cities in the NBA.
Even if he gets more than $8 million less by staying with the Lakers, his exposure and popularity will be maximized, and his commercial value will also be greatly improved.
On the contrary, he is now requesting a trade to other teams, and his exposure is far less than that of Los Angeles.
This is like picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon.
Could Wang Yi be so brainless?
However, the reality is that the vast majority of netizens are not that professional.
As long as there is a small group of people setting the pace, they will follow everyone else's lead.
What's more, such mindless operations are not uncommon in the NBA.
At the same time, I don’t know who broke the news: Wang Yi is dissatisfied with his position as the third boss in the team. Even if he cannot be the boss, he must at least be the third boss. When LeBron retires, he wants the Lakers to be him
team. The Lakers management and coach failed to reach a consensus with him on this point, so he went against his promise and actively sought a trade. What he meant was that he could be the boss if he went to another team.
As soon as this revelation came out, the Internet was once again turned upside down.
Things are better here in China.
Many fans stood up to speak for Wang Yi.
"He doesn't look like someone who would go back on his word."
"This must be a black man in Brother Hei Yi. We still need to wait for the truth of the matter."
"Maybe Brother Yi can't help himself."
"Actually, regardless of whether this news is true or not, I think there is nothing wrong with Brother Yi being the Lakers' boss. He has the attributes of a glassy man with thick eyebrows, which can cause serious injuries at every turn. In this case, what's wrong with letting Brother Yi be the boss of the Lakers?"
"With the current situation of the Lakers, if Brother Yi stays in the Rockets, he will only be the second or third child. If he goes to other teams, he will be the proper boss."
In the United States, those fans are not so polite.
"This Chinese guy has grown up. If he plays better this season, he will drift away."
"Traitor of the Lakers! Traitors should be hanged."
"I really fucking fancied him wrongly. From now on, he will be the lifelong enemy of the Lakers and my lifelong enemy."
"He betrayed LeBron, betrayed the thick eyebrows, betrayed the Lakers, betrayed us."
Some Los Angeles fans even posted a video online of burning Wang Yi's jersey.
This video quickly received over 10,000 likes and was retweeted like crazy.
James, the biggest NBA player, is now the biggest Yihei. Stephen A. Smith tweeted: I have long said that this Chinese guy can't make a difference. He is just like Irving back then who left LeBron and couldn't do anything.
He thinks he can be the boss? It’s a joke. Not everyone can be the boss, he doesn’t have the temperament of a boss at all.
Celtics star Pierce tweeted: There is no doubt that loyalty is a quality that a player should have. Although the NBA is a business, in addition to business, we should have more human touch. He betrayed LeBron, betrayed
His brothers. Such people are doomed to live a lifetime of loneliness and accomplish nothing.
As a result, Wang Yi has almost become a black man on the Internet in the United States.
The comment area under Wang Yi's Twitter went viral almost instantly.
Countless abuses, ridicules, and accusations poured in.
Wang Yi had no response at all.
Anyway, it was rare for him to tweet.
Just when the entire U.S. network was criticizing Wang Yi, Shaquille O'Neal spoke out: No matter what you say, I firmly support this Chinese man.
The big-mouthed Klee who once looked down on Wang Yi actually spoke out this time: I don’t know what happened behind this, but I believe in this Chinese man. He is the most authentic believer in basketball and a simple person. I believe in him
He will not betray his brothers.
After O'Neal and Barkley spoke out, their Twitter comment sections were quickly compromised.
It's just that there are relatively fewer voices criticizing these two people. After all, they are both boss-level figures.
At this time Wang Yi was on his way home.
The phone rang suddenly.
It's James calling.
"What happened to the king?"
James's voice seemed a little solemn.
Wang Yi shook his head: "I don't know either, I just got the notice."
James has been in the league for so many years and can see through many things at a glance.
Just hearing Wang Yi's words, he already understood that the top management of the Lakers must be behind this.
But now that things have happened, no one can change it.
"Brother, I want to speak for you on social media, but I can't do it. If I speak for you, those who don't know the truth will only think that I am generous, and you have betrayed me. Their attacks on you
It will be more violent."
Wang Yi nodded again and said: "I know."
"Wang, I know you. The more they scold you, the better your performance will be. They trade you to a small team that no one pays attention to, but the more you make everyone pay attention to you. You are that kind of
A player who becomes more courageous with every setback."
"You can't stand up and speak out when something like this happens, otherwise it will only get darker and darker. The only thing you can do is to have an explosive performance and conquer them with your tough performance."
James obviously has experience with this.
When he made the first decision, he was also blackballed by the entire Internet.
But later he conquered the vast majority of fans with his performance.
James continued: "Wang, I just want you to know that I will always support you silently. If you need help, call me at any time. I mean anything."
Wang Yi paused for two seconds and said only two words: "Thank you!"
Next, Nongmei, Caruso, and Tucker also called to inquire about the situation.
To Wang Yi's surprise, Schroeder also called to inquire about the situation.
After understanding the situation, Schroeder paused for a few seconds and said: "So, Wang, this is the method of NBA capitalists. As players, we are actually just a vulnerable group. All we can do is to perform better and let them
Go and regret it.”
At this point, Schroeder sighed: "Well, maybe not long after you leave, I'm afraid I will also leave the team."
Wang Yi was silent for a few seconds: "Brother, no matter where you are, I just hope you get better and better."
"The same to you."
After speaking, Schroeder was silent for a moment: "Wang, actually I have always wanted to say thank you to you. Without you, I am afraid I will not become better."
After saying that, he hung up the phone silently.
When Wang Yi was on the phone, Nicole kept paying attention to Wang Yi's expression.
Chapter completed!
