If Wayne can make a comeback, it will undoubtedly be beneficial to Schwartz.

Wayne's commercial value is so high that as long as he says he wants to come back, the whole world will support him.

But as an agent with a reasonable conscience and a good personal relationship with Wayne, Schwartz reminded Wayne: "You know, if you come back, it means you can only succeed, not fail. To put it bluntly,

Point, if you don’t win the championship, you’re a failure.”

As the former No. 1 active player, Wayne's career could be said to have come to a perfect end when he retired.

For such a perfect person, fans naturally have different requirements for him.

Just like James, people always laugh at him for winning so many runner-ups.

But in fact, if another person could lead the team to the finals for so many years, it would not be a shame, but an honor.

For example, if so many runners-up are placed on Tracy McGrady, Anthony and others, their historical status may have to rise a lot.

But just because James is the chosen one, people are not satisfied even if he finishes second. Leading the team to the finals consecutively has become a shame.

The same goes for Wayne. How can a veteran in his 30s be considered successful?

If you put it on someone else, if he can still adapt to the game and produce good statistics, it will be considered a success.

But here in Wayne, success is only considered a championship.

If he experiences failure after his comeback, all the halo surrounding Wayne will disappear.

People will find that Wayne is no different from other stars.

This is the price of becoming a historical giant.

Sometimes when you stand up, you can't fall down again.

The dilemma facing Wayne is the same as when Jordan came back with the Wizards - he might pull himself down from the altar.

When Jordan fans talk about his great legend, they always leave out the Wizards part.

Just like when people talk about Magic, they will erase the unsuccessful comeback in 1996.

From this aspect, Wayne's comeback is very dangerous.

But everything has two sides. If Wayne can succeed after his comeback, then he will really become a god.

After all these years, there is still no one in the league who can beat me.

If Wayne can achieve this effect, his already high historical status will continue to skyrocket.

Ultimately, Schwartz’s advice is: “The key to whether you should make a comeback is whether you have the confidence to succeed!”

"You haven't played well for two years. No one knows whether you can continue to be as dominant as you were back then. You have to think carefully, because this time, there are only two outcomes, failure and success, with no middle term."

Schwartz's words made Wayne think about it for several days.

Can it be successful?

Who the hell knows?

Things in competitive sports are all played out, not predicted.

Wayne can now restore his attribute values ​​through training and adding points, but he doesn't know whether his attributes will decline faster and faster as he continues to grow older.

After all, Wayne will be 32 years old in a few days.

This is no longer young in the field of professional sports.

Wayne is not sure if he can ever regain his former form.

After the finals, Wayne also discussed his comeback with more people.

Sharapova is supportive. After all, she is also a professional athlete. She knows very well an athlete's desire for the court and victory.

When she just gave birth to her child, Sharapova thought about simply retiring.

But after holding it in for several months, I still couldn’t help but feel itchy hands.

It was okay not to come back, but once I came back I won a few more championships.

Therefore, Sharapova knows Wayne's current state very well.

Besides, the children have grown up a lot, so they don't have to worry as much as before. Wayne can completely devote himself to basketball.

Then, when Mr. Thunderbolt became famous all over the world, an unusual visitor came to Wayne's house - David Stern!

"Wei, I know you didn't get along well with Braised Egg back then. But now, I'm back.

You know my attitude towards you, I promise to give you a good playing environment.

Let me tell you the truth, the league currently lacks superstars.

Your good friend Kobe Bryant may retire after next season.

Wade and Bosh, their strength has basically withdrawn from the ranks of super giants.

Griffin, Rose and other young people who had high hopes at the time all fell due to injuries.

The league cannot live without superstars. If you can come back, it will definitely be a huge benefit to the league and the Trail Blazers!"

Wayne never expected that Sternmen would personally come out to invite him.

Why are you all so fat? You colluded to break my bottom line, right?

"Don't talk nonsense. What's wrong with CEO Luodan and I? Hahahaha. That elbow of mine was definitely not intentional. I just wanted to save the ball!"

Wayne did not respond to the news about his comeback, but quickly distanced himself from the relationship with Lu Dan.

Stern was speechless. I didn't mention you elbowing him at all. Isn't this because there is no silver in this place...

Forget it, Stern doesn't care about the feud between Wayne and Lu Dan now anyway. Lu Dan is already out, so he doesn't want the league to still pay for the mess left by Lu Dan.

"What about that? How is President Luodan doing now?" After Wayne explained, he asked cautiously.

"Well... let me tell you this, his lifestyle is similar to that of Dr. Stephen Hawking. He cannot live without a wheelchair and cannot speak. Hey, he is such a pitiful man."

"Hahahaha, that's great... uh... I mean, that's such a shame!"

Stern looked at Wayne's expression that almost couldn't help but laugh, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

Why didn't I notice that you looked very sorry?

Wayne was so happy, he really wanted to see with his own eyes what the braised eggs looked like now.

Unexpectedly, that elbow I had originally affected a person's life.

"Stop talking about that poor guy, Wei, let's continue talking about your comeback.

I also know that Allen has been in poor health recently...

So, if you can come back, he will also be very happy.

Don't worry, according to the rules of the Bird Clause, although you have left for two years, the Trail Blazers still own your Bird rights.

This means that they can risk renewing your contract.

I know that you are only willing to come back with the Trail Blazers. I just want to tell you that everything is in compliance with the regulations.

Also, this alliance is no longer the same, or in other words, this alliance has returned to what you are familiar with.

Come back, you definitely still want to win, right?"

Seeing Wayne deep in thought, Stern smiled slightly and felt ecstatic inside.

He hesitated, he hesitated!

He knows that at least the probability of this is no longer zero percent!

Don’t forget, Boss Si is also a master at all things. Who do you think posted those comments questioning Wayne in the first place?

It's just that Stern didn't expect that the fans would be led astray so easily and forget how terrifying Wayne is so quickly. They would bite the bullet one by one and discuss whether Wayne was that strong.

People like Wayne, Jordan and Kobe have an unquenchable desire to win.

This is their most primitive impulse.

Stern remembered that Jerry West once said: Superstars are used to greatness, used to being crazy about winning, used to masochistic training and getting fun from it, used to competing with others every day, used to the audience's enthusiasm.

cheer.

Therefore, if they retire early, they will usually become unbearable to be lonely after a while.

They will think: This guy can win the championship, so I can do it too!

Stern used this mentality to stimulate Wayne, but he didn't know that in addition to this stimulation, Wayne had many other stimulations.

He doesn't know that he has already pushed Wayne to the alliance infinitely!

In the evening, Wayne thought about the current situation again.

The current situation is that the boss is about to die, and I hope to fulfill one more wish before he dies.

Then he also promised that if Wayne comes back, he will be given a share of the team's equity.

Wayne himself also felt a little itchy and missed the feeling of winning.

Stern supports Wayne's return to the Trail Blazers and will not do anything to hinder him.
To be continued...
