Wei Xia felt it was ridiculous. A few seconds ago, he was preparing to sacrifice millions of income to accept the Lakers' offer just to play for a championship team in the next few years.

Now, he doesn't have to worry about it anymore.

The Lakers withdrew their offer to him, but did not match any offer on the market, which was equivalent to sending Wei Xia away for nothing.

Even Wei Xia himself couldn't figure it out. Could it be that Ariza and Fernandez's outstanding performance made them feel that they no longer need the help of a former FMVP?

Not long after, news came out that the Lakers used the middle class special case to sign another strongman in the free market: Ron Artest.

Artest obviously has enough energy in Houston last season. With his strength, joining the Lakers will undoubtedly make them more powerful.

Ariza, Fernandez and Artest, none of them can compare with Wei Xia in the 2007-08 season, but the three of them become tigers, let alone Wei Xia who was torn apart by the ACL.

In order to join the Lakers, Artest also took the initiative to cut his salary.

In the eyes of the Lakers, winning Artest is a less risky option.

Moreover, compared to Wei Xia, he is too cheap.

For Artest to give up Wei Xia, as soon as the news came out, the basketball world was in an uproar, and most people expressed their understanding.

During the season, Wei Xia's agent Dan Brown took the initiative to reveal the insulting offer the Lakers to Wei Xia - 50 million in four years. The shock caused by this offer in the league is immeasurable, but at the social level, some non-basketball media believe that this is a sign that the Lakers are preparing to trade Wei Xia.

No matter what reputation and reputation Wei Xia is now, the contribution he has made to the team during his three years with the Lakers is indelible. If the Lakers deliberately choose an insulting offer and then trade him while taking advantage of the injury, it will undoubtedly damage the Lakers' reputation.

At the same time, Wei Xia, who was injured in the trade, will cause chaos within the Lakers, and everyone must consider clearly what the consequences of working hard for this team. Therefore, trading Wei Xia seems to be the most "professional" approach, but it will be endless.

Therefore, the Lakers chose to give an insulting offer that would never be accepted by Wei Xia's team. When his economic team started to move around, they used the team's old tune in media to replay "We are not sure whether the Lakers can win the championship if they lose wish", guiding public opinion to get the team focused and pursue the championship with all their might in order to prove themselves.

The management stabilized the morale of the army and sent a signal to other teams with an insulting offer: pack up the space and grab people.

If a strong team wants to strengthen, the weak team needs the core. Even if Wei Xia encounters acl tear, there are still many teams willing to bet on it.

As the Lakers defeated the Magic in an overwhelming way to achieve two consecutive championships, it became increasingly unnecessary to retain Wei Xia with a maximum salary that would completely expand the space. After several months of pushing and pulling between the two sides, Wei Xia received a call from Buss Jr.

As a non-Lakes executive, Bus Jr. informed Wei Xia that the team was about to withdraw his offer and would not match other quotes on the market. This not only gave Wei Xia all the answers, but also left them with flexible operation space.

Without staying behind the Lakers, Wei Xia got the greatest freedom to go to the city he wanted to go to and get the biggest contract. The Lakers retained their reputation and avoided the space explosion in the summer of 2010.

There are enough reasons to explain to the outside world that Wei Xia’s future is as they thought, this may be the most successful “decisive and standing” in NBA history.

"Either wish becomes a mediocre player, or the Lakers made the stupidest decision in team history. Let's see what answers time will give!"

At this point, Wei Xia's departure is a foregone conclusion.

Next, what Wei Xia had to do was to find the most suitable one from the eight generous quotes.

In the following week, Wei Xia met with several teams, briefly talked, and the other party explained the team building strategy. During this period, three teams with no clear plan were removed from the options, and then only the Spurs, Mavericks, 76ers, Trail Blazers and Bulls were left.

The Spurs and Mavericks are championship teams, and the Trail Blazers and Bulls can afford to have four words to expect in the future.

These four teams are all good choices.

What about the Philadelphia 76ers? This team seems to be nothing good, but one thing is that it is Wei Xia’s hometown team.

Just for this, it is worth Wei Xia’s serious consideration.

The Lakers' contempt made him realize that if he wants to take the initiative, he must become an unshakable soul figure, like Kobe.

The Spurs have Duncan, the Mavericks have Nowitzki, and the Trail Blazers already have Roy, Aldridge and Oden. Weisha went there and could only help them.

Now what Wei Xia values ​​is no longer the team's competitiveness, but the team status he can achieve after joining.

The Spurs are a parent team, and the influence of GDP spreads from the field to the off court. Even if they surpass them, there is an unshakable Popovich on their heads. The close relationship between the Mavericks and Nowitzki, coupled with the racist color of Dallas, Wei Xia was discouraged. The Trail Blazers are very interesting. This was the team that selected him with the sixth pick and was also one of the teams he least wanted to join on the eve of the draft. In just a few years, they have gotten rid of the reputation of the prison team, but he can't raise the idea of ​​joining this team anyway.

Therefore, he rejected the Spurs, Mavericks and Trail Blazers early, asking them to withdraw their offer and take advantage of the free market to pursue others.

Wei Xia's performance is "kind". If the Mavericks and the Spurs wait any longer, they will not sign in and they will have nowhere to spend money.

For the remaining two teams, the team Wei Xia originally wanted to join was the Bulls.

The Bulls hope that he can bring the championship genes back to this team that has been in decline for 11 years. Derek Ross has great talents, and George Noah is a passionate big man. They all have outstanding potential, but they also need a leader. I'm afraid no one is more suitable to guide this group of young people than Weisha.

Later, Wei Xia changed her mind after her father's phone call.

Wei Mingliang took the Lakers as an example. He has achieved enough achievements in Los Angeles, but when he is deeply trapped in the quagmire, the city does not provide him with much support. Even because of the international status of Los Angeles, some social athletes will also put down the wrongdoing when Wei Xia was in trouble. For example, during the recovery period last season, those public opinion that hoped that the Lakers would trade him was the first to appear in Los Angeles.

He gave all his money to the Lakers, and fought through the Acl to bring back a championship and was treated like this. Can you really start smoothly by going to other cities?

Philadelphia is his hometown, and returning home has another benefit for him, that is, he doesn't have to spend time winning the fans' love.

His roots have never been in Los Angeles. He is the son of Philadelphia and the hero of Pennsylvania. He is the one who makes a city proud. This sense of belonging and the pride of fellow villagers, and the support that can be obtained without giving more, is something other cities cannot give.

So, why not go back to a group of fans who really love him, go back to their families, and fight for their hometown cities?

Wei Xia was completely moved by his father's suggestion.

Two days later, some media broke the news: "Wish and Philadelphia 76 people reached a four-year oral agreement of 67 million."

At that time, Wei Xia was still in Los Angeles, so he had to sign a contract in Philadelphia first and then come back to move.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, Lakers center Ryan Hollins, who was close to Wei Xia, was sent to Philadelphia by the Lakers after Wei Xia announced that he had reached an oral agreement with the 76ers.

The 76ers sent out a defender, Willie Green, and got Hollins.

Critics speculated that this was a pact between Philadelphia and Wei Xia.

Only when they do what Wei Xia said can Wei Xia join them.

In fact, Wei Xia was not aware of this, and it was the internal decision of the 76ers.

Wei Xia is indeed the darling of Philadelphia, but he has no foundation and connections in the team.

Since Wei Xia was torn apart by the ACL, 76ers have been actively preparing.

Iguodala seems to have the talent to achieve greatness, but he does not have the ambition to match his talent. Under his command, the 76ers have no future. Therefore, the 76ers would rather go for a big bet. When the Lakers release the signal that they might send Wei Xia away, the 76ers' management will start to clear the space.

With the determination to take the opportunity to get Weisha, they gave Haitian center Samuel Delhamport to their old rival Celtics in vain by changing air. In order to get the top basketball center, the Celtics also handled Kendrick Perkins' contract.

Some American fans who are keen on conspiracy theories believe that the 76ers did this entirely to help Wei Xia disgust the Lakers.

If Wei Xia wants to choose the team he hates most, the Lakers will be the top three even if they are not the first. According to the normal development trend, they will not have any opponent next season. Now, their biggest enemy, the Boston Celtics, have received a strong support.

This conspiracy theory seems to be groundless speculation and has no evidence, but if you relate several other things, you can find that it may not be that simple.

If the 76ers had no idea of ​​pleasing Wei Xia, they would not have signed Wei Xia's sibling and friend Vaughan Weaver, and now they traded to Ryan Hollins.

In this way, at least two people in Wei Xia can trust when she comes to the new team.

On July 11, Wei Xia signed his new contract at the Sunset Center, a brand-new training center built by Philadelphia 76ers.

He officially went from a former Lakers player to a current 76ers player.

76ers' current director Ed Stefanski held Weisha's hand with great joy: "When you were still in Villanova, we paid attention to your performance. Unfortunately, you chose to stay in school to continue your second college season, so we missed you. Unexpectedly, you still joined us five years later. Welcome home, wish!"

"Thank you, this is my honor."

When Wei Xia walked out of the supervisor's office, she met the 76ers' two rookies selected this year - Ju Holiday and Louis Williams - on the court at Sunset Center.

Holiday took the initiative to say hello to Wei Xia: "Man, what's going on recently? It's such a bad idea for the Lakers to give up you. Sooner or later you will make them regret it. I completely believe in your strength!"

"Yes, they definitely made a mistake!" Williams made a superficial statement, "I'm the same."

Wei Xia nodded with a smile, remembered their names and exchanged contact information.

Like them, Wei Xia is a newcomer who is just a newcomer. He will never be wrong when he communicates more and communicates more.

Tomorrow, Wei Xia will need to return to Los Angeles, handle the matter there, hold another party, and propose to Elaine Trovis.

That's right, proposal.

After so many things, Weisha and Trovis knew enough about each other.

Wei Xia thought he was ready.

Before that, he needs to go home first and then communicate with his parents.

When she heard that Wei Xia signed a contract with 76ers, Mei Chen showed an extremely enthusiastic response. She cooked a table of British delicacies that night. Although it was not considered a beautiful meal, it was all the food that Wei Xia had eaten since she was a child.

Wei Xia tactfully stated that when he was going to propose to Trovis, Mei Chen's knife and fork fell to the ground.

"Really, Philip?" Mei Chen asked in disbelief, "Are you really worthy of others?"

Wei Xia's eyes widened, and as soon as the knife and fork put a piece of meat into his mouth, there were countless question marks on his face.

"Just kidding! This is a good thing!" Mei Chen asked excitedly, "Are you sure?"

Wei Xia really dared not say that she was 100% sure, "I'm very sure I love her. She is the woman I recognize, and I believe she is the same."

"It's really a double happiness! No, three happiness comes!" Mei Chen said excitedly.

"Three joys are coming?" Wei Xia wanted to know what the third joy is.

Mei Chen said: "Randall is going to complete his studies soon. He will officially graduate and enter society. I always thought he was the kind of fool who is difficult to graduate. Now it seems that I am really sorry for him."

Wei Xia wanted to say that her mother's opinion was correct.

His brother is the kind of fool who is difficult to graduate. As for why his studies have made great progress and he can graduate on time, Wei Xia believes that there must be some disgrace in it.

Wei Xia's father Wei Mingliang was calm throughout the process. He would occasionally agree with Mei Chen, but did not mention his own views.

After the meal, the happy Mei Chen hummed and refused Wei Xia, who wanted to help her clean up the dining table.

"Go and chat with your dad. There is nothing you have to do here!" Mei Chen was as arrogant as the Lion King who drove Asian adults away from the lion group.
