Chapter 277 In-depth Conversation
When Yang Mo was calculating his wealth, there was a knock on the door. Yang Mo got up and opened the door. Dwyane Wade was standing outside. Yang Mo quickly invited him in. Yang Mo wanted to make a joke, but seeing his serious expression, he gave up the idea.
Before Yang Mo entered the NBA, Wade was his idol. After joining Miami, he also took good care of him and provided him with all kinds of help. Yang Mo has always regarded him as a brother, from his initial poverty to his current global fame, this idea has never changed.
"Yang, your concert last night really made headlines in many newspapers. Many entertainment newspapers are calling on you to join the singing world." Wade said with a smile after taking his seat.
"Haha, it's just entertainment, don't take it seriously." Yang Mo said with a smile, and handed a bottle of water to Wade.
"You are already the most famous player in the NBA, and your net worth is also the highest in the NBA. The league is also constantly promoting you." Dwyane Wade suddenly said without any context.
What he said was true, but when he said it suddenly at this time, it always made people feel that there was something else behind his words. Yang Mo thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Dwayne, in my heart, you have always been my brother who takes care of me and supports me. There shouldn't be any grudges between us. Just say it directly if you have anything to say."
Wade was stunned at first, then he smiled and patted Yang Mo on the shoulder, and said seriously: "Yang, do you feel that I have suppressed your growth?"
Wade said this directly, and Yang Mo couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Wade to be so straightforward. He hesitated and struggled for a few seconds, then gritted his teeth. Since Wade had already spoken frankly, he had nothing to hide, so he simply said directly: "Although I have learned a lot of skills and experience from you, it is undeniable that my freedom on the court is very limited."
After saying this, Yang Mo did not forget to add: "I have my own thoughts on this matter, but I absolutely have no complaints against you. I said that you are my brother. When I was nothing, you gave me great help. Without you, I would not have grown to where I am today. We Chinese people value loyalty, and loyalty means never pointing a knife at your brothers."
Having said this, Yang Mo paused, looked directly at Wade, and said very seriously: "You are my brother."
Yang Mo spoke so earnestly and affectionately that Wade could not help but be moved. It felt good to be treated as a brother. He patted Yang Mo's shoulder heavily. After a while, he said, "Actually, I came to you this time to discuss with you our next strategy."
"Hmm?" Yang Mo frowned, somewhat puzzled.
"I discussed it with Riley this morning, and we decided to give you unlimited firing rights as well..."
Before Wade finished speaking, Yang Mo interrupted him decisively: "No."
"Why?" Wade asked curiously. In his opinion, even if Yang Mo wasn't cheering and jumping for joy, she should have nodded in agreement. Why would she refuse?
"Beasley needs the ball, Jermaine needs the ball, and Chalmers also needs the ball. If I have the right to fire, the entire offensive system will be messed up. None of the five of us are particularly good at passing the ball, so...if I divide the ball, this team will have no fighting power at all." Yang Mo analyzed very seriously: "If we look at the results, I choose to continue to play a supporting role and be the glue of the entire team."
Wade listened to Yang Mo's analysis and felt that it made sense. This team did have a big problem with the distribution of offense, especially after Jermaine O'Neal joined. A team with a problematic offensive system, adding a guy who wanted unlimited firepower, would definitely not achieve the effect of enhancing combat effectiveness, but would only cause chaos and collapse.
"So what do you mean?" Wade asked Yang Mo for his opinion very seriously.
"I will continue to play a supporting role this season." Yang Mo replied.
"What about next season?" Wade asked subconsciously.
"Next season?" Yang Mo whispered softly. He already had the answer in his heart, but he didn't say it. Instead, he smiled at Wade. There was embarrassment and apology in this smile.
Wade saw this smile and immediately understood Yang Mo's intention. He also learned from Pat Riley about Yang Mo's extremely special contract attributes.
Suddenly, he felt a strong sense of loss. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Have you decided to leave?"
"It's not decided yet." Yang Mo said apologetically, pursing her lips. She also reminded him, " Don't tell your teammates or Mr. Riley about this. I don't want to affect the morale of the team."
Wade nodded in understanding, feeling particularly sorry because his pick-and-roll with Yang Mo had become more and more skilled and more and more powerful. However... Yang Mo's growth rate had made it impossible for him to be a pick-and-roll tool for others. This was a sad thing that he had to accept.
The two sat in silence for a long time, neither of them spoke. They could be good brothers, but they definitely couldn't be good teammates who helped each other, because both of them were players with sharp styles and poor passing ability, especially Yang Mo, whose passing ability was almost zero so far. If the two were in the same team, they could only fight on their own.
It’s not that Yang Mo was unwilling to sacrifice, but that he was young, energetic and ambitious.
It’s not that Wade is unwilling to sacrifice, but his edge is too strong and cannot be restrained.
The two of them could only say that they met the right person at the wrong time. They were not meant to be together. If they had waited a few more years, they would have definitely become the best partners. However, Wade could no longer wait, and Yang Mo could no longer wait.
"No matter what, we are still teammates this season." Yang Mo suddenly raised his head, looked at Wade, and said passionately: "We will kill everyone. Even if we can't win the championship, we must let the world know how powerful our pick-and-roll combination is!"
Yang Mo spoke with great enthusiasm, and Wade also became high-spirited. He reached out and held Yang Mo's hand tightly: "Yes, let's fight our way out and let them know how powerful we are!"
"Hahaha!" The two laughed heartily. At this moment, they were finally close again.
Moreover, they will remain close for the rest of the time. Because Yang Mo has automatically withdrawn from the competition for the top spot in Miami and is willing to be a supporting role to complete the entire team.
