Todd Lamasa is a quasi-first-line agent in the NBA. He currently holds agency contracts with seven NBA players, including Baron Davis, Ricky Davis and others. Marcus Banks is his new agent this year. Newly signed players.
He's keeping expectations high for the point guard from Nevada, who he thinks has a chance to become a Gary Payton-esque figure with the strong Marcus Banks.
In fact, that's how he promoted it. Marcus currently has lottery stock in this year's draft projections.
But it lacks some hot spots.
NBA teams value his immediate ability more than his potential. This is definitely not a good thing for a rookie.
Therefore, he asked Marcus Banks to come to Grover’s training camp for training and used Grover’s super influence to endorse him. Hope to go further.
Marcus Banks is also trying his best to plan, and he has been touching Su Xi. He thought that he was more than enough to defeat Su Xi, but when he shouted in the media, Su Xi ignored him at all. In the past few days, he tried to have sex with Su Xi in the arena, but Su Xi only treated him as his caddy and even threw a towel to him.
Banks was extremely angry and wanted to argue with Su Xi, but the staff stopped him and told him that you can't disturb the VIP customers over there.
Everywhere is hierarchical.
Players waiting to be drafted should stay in the area where players are waiting for draft. Don't always think about trying to get into trouble with VIP customers.
Banks was deeply humiliated.
"Byron, didn't Arenas say he was going to launch a training camp showdown before? I hope you choose me. I'm going to face off against Suzy the Lamb. I can beat him."
Marcus Banks requested Bearded Davis.
Davis frowned: "Can you defeat him? What does it mean if you defeat him?"
"I'd have the Nevada Farm Tractor Manager go to the game and have them film it," Banks said. "It's a two-for-one thing. When they see what I'm doing, they'll make sure they sign me." At the same time, if the tape leaks out, it will also help my draft prospects."
"But Grover will be angry," Davis said.
"No, I read all the terms and conditions, and it didn't say no photography," Banks said.
Todd Lamasa thought for a while and said, "You can give it a try."
Davis nodded reluctantly. He didn't want to get involved in these boring and stupid intrigues. In his opinion, it was too low.
What Nevada Farm Tractor Plant? Isn’t it just a $200,000 endorsement?
For Davis, who often hangs out among Hollywood celebrities, this is just a little game of house.
Therefore, he emphasized that if there is a training camp competition, he will pick Banks, but that's it, don't expect to do more.
Many thanks to Banks.

The words are divided into two parts.
Arenas ate braised meat in Su Xi's apartment, which Su Xi had made for agent O'Connor three days ago. To thank O'Connor for cooking nutritious meals for Susie.
In addition, there are also very American sweet and sour pork ribs, Kung Pao chicken and some side dishes.
Arenas rates the sweet and sour pork ribs highly, as well as the braised lotus root slices and braised potato slices.
This obviously involves the intellectual blind spots of black people.
Arenas asked Su Xi: "These vegetables taste a little salty, a little sweet, and a little spicy. How are they made?"
Su Xi told him that this was a family recipe.
But not much was said.
When Grandpa Su Xi first came to the United States, she made a living by making braised meat. Su Xier learned it by exposure. Later, when his grandfather had an accident, he also did it for a while. Because braised meat can be stored for a long time, he braises it twice a week and takes it to school so that he can exchange it with other students for other nutritious delicacies. This is Su Xi's way of survival, which is why Arenas likes it very much.
Because the braised food made by Su Xi must meet American tastes. Americans mostly have sweet tastes.
Arenas is a very interesting person and ate the food cooked by Su Xi. He said to Su Xi: "I will protect you from now on, brother."
"When you get to the NBA, if you mention my name, they won't dare to look down on you."
The two chatted about training for a while.
Before leaving, Arenas insisted on taking Su Xi to play with women.
Su Xi pretended to be tired.
Arenas laughed loudly and said, "I'm just saying that there is no one with better physical fitness than me who can recover so quickly. You were suffering from internal damage before, right."
Su Xi did not chat with him in depth.
Arenas thought Su Xi was very interesting. He said that he must give Su Xi a car: "Man, how can we do without a means of transportation?"
Arenas is a typical black American, emotional, sentimental, and spendthrift.
Su Xi quickly thanked him for his kindness and said that he did not have a driver's license.
Arenas then gave up.
Then, he took off a gold necklace about the thickness of his little finger from his neck and slapped it in Su Xi's hand: "Hey! This is a little gift for my little brother."
Then, he walked away.
Su Xi smiled helplessly.
Arenas is really unpretentious when it comes to making friends.
In fact, Su Xi is much richer than Arenas at this time, and he still has more than 10 million US dollars in his bank account.
Arenas has just finished his two-year child labor contract. He is a second-round pick and is considered poor in the NBA. He is a restricted free agent with an expiring contract this summer. If a team gives him a big contract, he can be considered a real star.
Su Xi returned home and tidied up for a while.
Mike O'Connor is back from the Cotswolds. "I've got it, boss."
After Su Xi received his salary from Nike, he immediately went to the bank to open an account and purchased a fund worth US$1.2 million. He then sent Mike O'Connor to the Cotswolds to get access to the bank accounts of Reggie Weems's mother and Dennis Scott's mother. Every month, this fund will transfer $5,000 to each of their cards.
"I found them as a welfare lottery salesman and asked them to participate in a lottery. They all won an apartment and a monthly pension of US$5,000."
O'Connor said vividly: "I have acted in movies before. My acting skills are very good."
"Very good, well done." Su Xi praised him.
O'Connor then checked the accounts with Susie and found that the two Cotswold apartments cost $280,000.
"I can rest assured that you will do the work."
Susie gave O'Connor a thumbs up.
O'Connor was very happy, and then he said excitedly: "Boss, I may have to help you get a second endorsement contract. Do you know? I just met my classmate, he is from Nevada, and he is promoting his He wants to find a strong and famous athlete to endorse his farm tractor. If nothing happens, I can help you earn back the money you paid for the two apartments."
Forehead…. Farm tractor?
Su Xi frowned, what does this thing have to do with me? Would someone who drives a farm tractor like watching basketball?
But trying not to dampen O'Connor's enthusiasm, he said: "You go ahead and talk about it. But it can't be a TV commercial."
O'Connor quickly raised his proud chin: "I guarantee it will be completed."
He trotted away.
Su Xi looked at O'Connor's back, and he was thinking: Apart from his sarcastic face, this guy actually has pretty good business skills.
