Chapter 304 They Give Too Much
The second pick in the first round was the famous "Water Pull" Russell. Of course, he still made the All-Star later.
The third pick is Jahlil Okafor. His talent is fine, the only problem is that he was selected by the Philadelphia 76ers.In recent years, the Philadelphia 76ers have paid attention to two words in training rookies: resignation.
No matter what kind of performance you can perform in your rookie season, it is only given for one season. After one season, then...
Please invite the next "talented rookie".
A vivid interpretation of what is meant by "no girl is always 18, but there are girls who are 18 every year"!
The good news is that this time the Philadelphia 76ers were the second pick in the first round, and they took away the "water pull".
As for Okafor, he was chosen by Li Wan's former club.
The fourth pick in the first round belongs to the "Boss Joe" Bobcats.
"Boss Joe" originally wanted to choose Mario Hezonja, but he held back and chose Latvilla "genius insider" Kristaps Porzingis who he was not optimistic about!
This is an inside player with a height of 2 meters, but his mobility is comparable to that of an ordinary small forward.
But in the eyes of Michael Jordan, the weak figure is undoubtedly water...
But in order to verify whether his thinking was correct or not, he finally chose this guy!
When Li Wan knew that Michael Jordan chose Porzingis, he was taken aback for a moment.
He never imagined that Jordan's eyes suddenly came to Phil Jackson's level!
The "Chinese element" appeared in the seventh pick of the first round. Don't get me wrong, it's not that a Chinese player was selected in this pick, but a "strongest high school student in America" who graduated from high school and chose to play in the CBA in order to make money. The order was selected.
He is Mudiay.
The number one high school student in the United States!
In order to heal his family, he chose to go to Huaxia CBA after graduating from high school last year...
This experience is obviously very unforgettable for him. Before participating in the draft, he showed his suit to the media, and saw the "Chinese flag" embroidered on the inside.
"I hope to become a great player like Li Wan. Even if I can't reach that height, I still hope that I can work hard to prove myself!" This is his pre-match interview.
It was also this passage that allowed him to overshadow other candidates in the domestic media.
Then there is the special guard pick with the 13th pick in the first round. Phoenix's management chose a guard Devin Booker in this pick.
This choice was undoubtedly a success. Although Booker hadn't reached Kobe's level before Li Wan crossed, he was indeed a representative player of the Mesozoic era.
Among the students of the same class in 2015, it is even more outstanding!
If the 2015 season is rearranged, he will at least be in the top 3...
After that, there were not many names that Li Wan was familiar with. The 27th pick in the first round was the Cleveland Cavaliers' draft pick this season. They chose Larry Nance Jr. at this pick.
As the "second generation of stars", Larry Nance Jr., like his father Larry Nance, plays with his body.
An inside player with active style and rough technique.
In this faster and faster league, players like Larry Nance Jr. are becoming more and more sought after.
It's just that as far as Li Wan knows, Larry Nance Jr. didn't play it.The level of the entire career is at best a qualified substitute player.
Of course, among the remaining rookies who can choose, this is already considered a "high-quality product"!
The 2015 draft is not small, and there are "genius players", but there are only a handful of them.Let's put it this way, in the second round of this year, a total of 4 teams gave up their signing rights.
It can be seen that there are really not many "second-round potential stocks" worth betting on this year.
The Cavaliers are one of the teams that gave up the right to sign in the second round.
Even if Li Wan had the "sight of the sky", he really couldn't find any "remnants of the draft", not to mention that their second-round draft pick was still the 57th pick in the second round.
The end result is to give up...
In fact, this is also one of the rare NBA drafts where there is no second round of drafts.
In the second round of the draft in the past, even if they didn't reach the All-Star level, there were still two or three of the ordinary starting level. In this round, it was all "passing."
The news that Li Wan has started training spreads throughout the league.
This has aroused the vigilance of many super giants, and they have also started the "penance" mode.
ESPN cut the video of these reports together, saying: "This may be the group of multi-millionaires who sweat the most in the world!"
Buckley said: "Li Wan is like a catfish, making all super giants dare not relax. They don't want to be ruled by Li Wan. This is their only way to resist: that is to make themselves stronger!"
"I'm already looking forward to the new season!"
The better the players are, the more exciting the game will be!
If you want to say whether the atmosphere of this alliance is good or not, it really depends on what the "big brother in charge" does.
For example, in 2010, after who started the "Peak Giants Grouping" mode, the entire league was grouped together, so that in those few years, there were not many All-Stars on the team, and they were embarrassed to go out to say hello.
For another example, in 2023, it is still the one who kneeled down and made the Lakers average nearly 30 free throws per game, the highest number of free throws in the league. How outrageous?Let's put it this way, the number of free throws in each game is more than a dozen more than that of the opponent.
It is also since he "kneeled down" and led the Lakers back to the stage of the playoffs, the voices of the league complaining about the unfairness of the whistle have gradually increased.
Anyone who feels that his whistle is not as good as the opponent's whistle, from the players to the head coach, will end.
From the Suns to the Timberwolves...
This is because the person who should set an example did not take the lead and disrupted the atmosphere of the entire league. They all hoped that they could "8 vs 5" on their side.
And now, Li Wan, who is so diligent, has also made the super giants of the entire league start training hard.
But for those who have not yet entered the training ground, there must be such a passage under their social software: Li Wan, who has won 5 championships, is still working so hard, why do you have the nerve to rest there?
Practice for me, until you die!
When you retire, you will have plenty of time to rest!
Among the various reports about star training, July 7st is slowly approaching.
Mike Conley, who was training in full swing, received a call from his agent.
"Man, Chris wants to talk to us, he wants to meet up..."
Mike Conley said resolutely: "It's not necessary, just tell him what we think, we hope to be traded to Cleveland!"
This matter was decided when Li Wan was eliminated in the Eastern Conference Finals.
This is the best opportunity for Li Wan to join the Cavaliers after winning the championship!Coincidentally, his contract with the Grizzlies has also expired, and at this moment he has absolute autonomy...
So he asked his agent to tell Wallace what he thought.
He hadn't contacted for two days, and he thought that Wallace had started to discuss with Griffin how to sign first and then change. —Of course he would like to leave something behind for Memphis.
After all, Memphis was the place where he was selected in the draft and then trained.
After so many years, so much money spent, and so much effort, there must be something left behind, right?
No one will leave without leaving valuable chips for their home team, right?
No way?
No way?
That person is too egoistic.
Just listening to the manager's words, it seems that Wallace is still not giving up and wants to chat again.
between……
Mike Conley felt the need to re-examine his agent's ability to work.
Seemingly feeling Mike Conley's dissatisfaction, the agent didn't want to keep it up, and he quickly said, "That's right, Chris Wallace offered us a five-year 5 million maximum salary contract..."
"How much, how much?"
Mike Conley almost bit his tongue, thinking he had heard wrong.
The agent repeated: "5 million in 1.53 years!"
He wasn't surprised by Conley's reaction, because he had the same reaction when Chris Wallace made the offer.
Although everyone knows that with the signing of a new broadcast contract by the NBA, the league has officially entered the "big coin era", but Mike Conley never expected that he could sign such an expensive contract.
1.53 million 5 years...
The starting salary is more than 2600 million!
I deserve...
?
How much does Chris Wallace love me?
Mike Conley's determination to go to Cleveland suddenly became less determined...
To put it bluntly, NBA players are a bunch of workers.
If you really want to give up 1.53 million for the championship, Mike Conley is afraid that ten years later, he will tell himself... There was a sincere contract in front of me, and I didn't cherish it!
It's not that he doesn't want to play with his brothers, or that he doesn't have a "championship dream", but...
"This league is too impetuous, impetuous league, impetuous players, everything is more and more commercialization, I have been thinking, as players, in this era, what should we do, what should we stick to, Later, I finally figured it out, it was persistence..."
"speak English!"
Another "Online Hot Chat" time for the "Ohio Four" because Oden said "ready to see you in Cleveland", and Mike Conley talked about it.
Unable to bear it, Cook interrupted him.
Mike Conley coughed twice, and his tone was slightly awkward: "He gave too much... Let's wait a few years and play 'brother basketball' together!"
Cook rolled his eyes, his face was full of contempt: "How much money, just bought you? Can you forget the joy when your brothers are playing together?"
Mike Conley didn't hide it, and stretched out his hand: "5 million in 1.53 years!"
"How much, how much?"
This time it was Cook's turn to tie his tongue.
He understood Conley immediately.
Introducing the situation...
If he stomps, he'll be numb too!
It's the same situation with Oden. Although it's not as crazy as what Chris Wallace gave, the Trail Blazers also offered a 4-year, 1 million contract.
The starting salary is at least 2300 million or more.
No one has trouble with money, especially so much money.
In fact, Li Wan also hopes that the "Four Sons of Ohio" teaming up can be postponed until the team goes to Columbus.
And when he didn't win the championship last season, he teamed up with Mike Conley and Greg Oden who were in their prime, so wouldn't he become that one?
Li Wan is not someone with double standards.
At the beginning, he was so disdainful of such things as "peak grouping", so naturally he would not do such things.
Moreover, there is a big discrepancy with his personal plan.
In his plan, the next championship will be won by "Pippen" trained by himself, coupled with a group of good-quality main players.
Wiggins practiced hard after losing in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Before Li Wan started training, he had already entered the training mode.
Looking at that posture, it doesn't look like the original "Godberry Brother" at all, but a bit of a "Hot-Blooded Brother" posture.
Therefore, the enlightenment work for rookies is really important.
Let's put it this way, what would have happened if then-rookie LeBron James had gone to the Pistons instead of the Cavaliers!
Such a vigorous Wiggins will inevitably grow faster than before, even if it will be difficult to become a "second master" with quality and quantity next season.
It's better than last season, that's for sure!
And before this "Pippen" grows up, he still has a "Pippen" with a long neck to use inside.
Chris Bosh met with Li Wan after the season and talked about his treatment.
Thrombosis is about the decisiveness of treatment.
Just like Ingram later, he actively treated the blood clot as soon as he found it, and soon returned to the court. Although the blood clot was not completely eliminated, it was considered to be under control, and there would be no major consequences that were difficult to contain.
Chris Bosh is pretty much the same now.
It was discovered early, and the reimbursement for the season was announced immediately. The progress of the treatment is gratifying. From February to the present 2 months, the situation has been stably controlled.
Continue to actively treat, even if you can't come back this year.By January next year at the latest, he should be able to return to the arena and become Li Wan's most loyal and reliable second leader of the team!
Li Wan has no shortage of "Pippen".
He is also full of confidence in winning the championship with the current lineup next season.
I didn't know how to speak at first, but now the general manager of the team where these two guys belonged gave so much, and the problem was perfectly solved at once.
"This is good news, you two, but you have to buy me a car, and I'm so sad that you can't do what you promised me..."
Ok……
By the way, Li Wan knocked on a car.
No, it's two!
The two signed the "billion-dollar contract" and readily agreed.
And they're all big.
One was given to Malasati, and the other was given to Porsche.
Of course, compared to the contract they are about to sign, the money for these two cars is nothing!
May 7th arrived as scheduled.
The Grizzlies also immediately announced the five-year 5 million signing of Mike Conley.
The news detonated the entire league.
Same as before...
Many media don't understand why Chris Wallace gave Mike Conley such a big contract.
Even if his average of 23 plus 7 per game is in the current No. [-] position in the league, he can still be called No. [-].
Can……
2600 million starting salary...
This is the price that can only be obtained by "top super giants"!
Mike Conley is great, but his hard power has not reached the level of the league's super giants!
Now this offensive version of Mike Conley is being questioned.
Not to mention the doubts that the original Conley encountered when he got this contract.
For this matter, Lewis expressed his understanding...the contract is there, and the figures are also written by the management. He is willing to pay so much, so I can't...don't sign it?
Subsequently, the news that Oden completed the contract extension also came from Portland.
Although his 4-year [-] million contract sounds exaggerated, but in terms of outside discussions, it is not as big as what Mike Conley suffered.
Rare things are more expensive. In this era when there are fewer and fewer "traditional insiders", Greg Oden can really be described as a "treasure".
The data of 22.3 points and 11.3 rebounds per game is also the data performance of the league's top insiders.
In addition, his mobility is destined to make him impossible to be eliminated by the "small ball era".
Not to mention that the league has just narrowed the "three-second zone", which is another wave of great strengthening for him!
4 million in 1 years, he is fully capable of taking it.
In addition to renewing Oden's contract with 4 million in 1 years, the Trail Blazers also renewed Aldridge with the same price of 4 million in 1 years.
In this way, the core lineup of the Trail Blazers for the next four years can be regarded as officially determined.
They didn't mean to follow the "small lineup" of the trend group to play fast break, they still insisted on using the "Twin Towers" as the core lineup.
In fact, they also have a reason to persist. If Jeremy Lin was not injured, they would not be able to fall to the eighth position in the West, and it is very likely that they will be the top four in the West.
As long as all members are healthy, they are the powerful players in the Western Conference, and Aldridge and Oden are both at the peak of their careers, so what is there to change?
Obviously, continuing to persist is the better choice!
However, just after the free market opened, three "billion-dollar contracts" broke out. This summer's madness exceeded many people's expectations.
It is said that when a certain man surnamed Pi learned about this incident, he complained sourly to his friends: These bastards just caught up with the good times, so they are not like me at that time!
It's just that the friend of the man surnamed Pi must have heard him complain many times, and said mercilessly: "At that time, the boss and Michael persuaded you, you must sign a long-term contract yourself, who can blame this?"
As soon as he said that, the man surnamed Pi couldn't bear it anymore, and burst into tears.
After crying, I was drunk again, and I didn't even know if my wife came back at night.
After these three "billion-dollar contracts", the free market has temporarily returned to calm.
On July 7, Tim Duncan announced through the media that he will fight for another year.
When Li Wan ate this melon, he was a little surprised.
Because the original Tim Duncan had one year left in his contract, but he still chose to retire early. After he announced his retirement, the Spurs announced that he would be waived, so that he only had to pay 526 million in salary, which was more than the original payment. less than half.
Popovich used the saved 500 million...
After re-signing Leonard, he signed Aldridge...
Therefore, this time because Aldridge directly renewed his contract with the Trail Blazers, Popovich did not catch this "big fish". In the summer, he only needs to do a good job of renewing Leonard, and there is not so much need. Where the money is spent...Tim Duncan chose to play another year?
is that so?
if it is like this……
Wow!
The skill of Popovich's PUA is simply amazing!
Fortunately, "Stone Buddha" is a man...
If he was a woman!
But if Popovich likes to gamble, he can't be tricked into taking photos and using them to pay off his gambling debts?
When the news of Leonard's contract extension with the Spurs came out, it caused a lot of heated discussions in the league. His contract is $5 million for five years, of which the 9434-2019 season is a player option.
It is equal to 4 plus 1 contract.
The reason why this contract has caused heated discussions is also very simple, because of the amount of the contract.
With Popovich's so-so appearance, if he is willing to give a contract of [-] million yuan, it is destined to be big news.
At the same time, this contract can be regarded as an official announcement. Leonard will be the "absolute core" of the Spurs in the next 4 to 5 years.
The media couldn't help but think of the summer when Leonard just participated in the draft.Popovich traded his beloved apprentice George Hill from the Pacers for the 15th overall pick in the first round, and selected this same "shy" skeletal surprise.
At that time, many people did not understand Popovich's actions, but now, they have to admit that Jiang is still old and spicy!
George Hill's later performance with the Pacers proved that he could not grow into a qualified team leader.But Leonard's performance during this period proved that he has such an ability.
Using a 15th pick in the first round in exchange for the future of the team, isn't that crazy money, what is it?
A burst of praise goes to Popovich...
At the same time, the Cavaliers management finally heard the news.
With a veteran contract of 350 million, they signed Paul Pierce, who had just returned to freedom in the New York Knicks.
"Li Wan, I'm here to join you again!"
The way is:
All beginnings are hard!
When he joined Li Wan for the first time, Paul Pierce was nervous and at a loss, for fear that something was wrong and his status in the world would be affected.
But in the last year of the contract with the New York Knicks, when he realized that his market had become a "veteran market", Pierce called his agent at that time: "Man, don't ask other teams, you Contact the general manager of the Cavaliers directly! I'm going to the Cavaliers!"
There is no trace of hesitation, and there is no hesitation at all!
Griffin heard that Paul Pierce, who averaged 12.8 points and 4.5 rebounds per game last season, came to shoot, and he decisively offered a "veteran contract" slightly higher than the market price.
This is……
respect!
In this way, Paul Pierce came to Li Wan's team again.
As soon as the news came out, ESPN immediately shouted "Cavalier Championship"!
Many media have also shouted this slogan.
No way, just Li Wan's performance in the Eastern Conference Finals this year...
Any current reinforcements for the Cavaliers, just a small amount of reinforcements, will greatly increase Li Wan's chances of winning the championship in the eyes of the outside world.
He is really too strong now!
Any little bit of help would be "like a tiger with wings added" to him, a huge bonus.
Not to mention Paul Pierce's gas tank, there must be oil!
This "gain" is too obvious!
A certain pair of "hawk eyes" in Orlando were watching the report on the news on TV.
After reading it, "Hawkeye" showed a moment of thought, and then took out his mobile phone: "Dude, call them back, just say we agreed, and you can sell out, and also contact the general manager of the Cavaliers for me. To join the Cavaliers..."
He had just finished the call when an instant message suddenly appeared on the TV:
The Nets sent Wilson Chandler, jj-Redick and the first-round pick in 2016 and the second-round pick in 2017 to get Carmelo Anthony, who was signed first and then traded, from the Clippers.
"Melon" is coming to New York!
After getting him, the Nets instantly formed the "Big Three" of "Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony, and Howard" and once again became a powerful Eastern Conference.
The Russian owner of the Nets was ecstatic. After waiting for so many years, the "super team" finally arrived!
As for Carmelo Anthony, he has already arrived in New York by special plane at this time.
Before getting off the plane, he took a deep breath, his eyes full of expectation:
East, here I come!
and also……
Hold on, everyone!
Soon, you will know how much I have suppressed Li Wan!
With me here, this guy won't try to break through the East!
There is reason for Anthony to be so confident.
Firstly, it is naturally the number of games he won against Li Wan in the past four or five years; secondly, Li Wan won the "four consecutive championships" in New York, and lost immediately after leaving New York, which shows that "dog luck" is no longer in his favor. Since the "dog luck" is not on him, it is naturally on the city of New York.
Knicks is currently in a state of desolation. Although he is confident that he can bring Knicks back to life, he still has more important things to do, and that is to "snipe Li Wan"!
That being the case, it is natural to choose a stronger Nets team!
Right now, the time and place are favorable, Li Wan... has occupied the "throne" that does not belong to you for so many years, now it's time to hand it over!
"Hey, buddy, I've arrived in New York, and I've ordered the booth, and I'll send you the address later, don't worry, I promise you will have a good time, Dwight!"
Ok……
In order for his teammates to agree with him, Carmelo Anthony, with the help of his wife Lala, also formulated a careful "teammate strategy plan".
everything……
All to defeat Li Wan!
"Hey, Lee, I'm sorry to call you so late, but... this matter is really important, you know? Joe Johnson's agent just called me, and they have decided to talk to the Magic The team negotiated a sellout and joined the Cleveland Cavaliers..."
"!!!"
Li Wan was already asleep, but was woken up by Griffin's phone call, and was still complaining in his heart:
You better be busy!
Hearing what Griffin said to him now, he immediately sat up involuntarily.
Even more excited than when I heard Paul Pierce joined!
And not just because Joe Johnson is younger than Paul Pierce.
Also because Joe Johnson is a pure No. 2.
What the Cavaliers lack now is the second position.
After the "Jet" announced his retirement, the current team's second position is only Wade and Cook...
The current league really lacks a second position!
This may also be the reason. Even though Dion Waiters played poorly in the first year of trading to the Thunder, the Thunder management still reported him a contract extension this summer.
Although the money is not much, after conversion, it is only 800 million knives per year.
But the problem is...
How can Dion Waiters' performance be worth 800 million?
The presence of the 4 million stadium can't be played out!
In the past two days, Griffin was so anxious to strengthen the second position that his hair became bald again. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, another warrior took the initiative to vote.
He suddenly understood what Donny Walsh once said to him: "Don't put too much pressure on him, as long as you honestly build a team around Li Wan and eliminate the unstable factors in the team, you will find that there are In Li Wan's team, reinforcement is actually a very easy task!"
He didn't quite understand it then, but now...
He is so understanding!
This group of veterans took the initiative to vote one after another, without worrying about anything at all. If this is not easy, then no deal is really easy.
Li Wan..."Forever God"!
In this way, the gaps in the second and third positions are filled at once. When Chris Bosh returns, this is like an "invincible battleship"!
Griffin felt that the reinforcement of the summer had ended before it even started.
He can even start to study reinforcements for next season!
On July 7, Joe Johnson and his agent, after several days of wrangling, finally agreed to a buyout fee of 18% of the Magic's salary.
When the buyout was just reached, it attracted the attention of countless teams.
The general managers of at least 7 teams handed over an olive branch to Joe Johnson.
In the current situation where the second position is scarce, a veteran like Joe Johnson who has experience and is still capable of fighting is really very popular.
in particular……
Right now, he has just been bought out!
1 million Joe Johnson is too expensive.
But if it is about 78 to one million Joe Johnson, that would be too sweet!
Definitely an S-rated reinforcement.
Therefore, most of the powerful players, including the Warriors, handed over a new contract to Joe Johnson.
But in the end, according to the agreement with Griffin, Joe Johnson joined the Cavaliers with a basic salary contract of 78 after the clarification period ended!
At this time, less than 10 days have passed since Paul Pierce joined the Cavaliers with a basic salary, and now Joe Johnson took the initiative to join with a basic salary...
Barkley stood up immediately, and he attributed this to Li Wan's personal influence: "All players who aspire to win the championship will choose to join the Cavaliers, even though they are not the championship this summer, and they have not even entered the championship. The final, but everyone knows that when the new season restarts, the team that has the most hope of winning the championship is definitely Li Wan's team!"
The interpretation of "Bleacher" is similar to that of Barkley: "This means that in the eyes of these veterans, Li Wan is the one who is most likely to win the championship in the new season. They didn't say it, they did it through actual actions Show it!"
The so-called "mouth thinks the body is straight", the body's reaction is the biggest truth...
This aroused Green's dissatisfaction: "They soon knew (choosing to join the Cavaliers) was wrong, we are the championship, and we will become stronger. They will regret this matter. Let's wait and see. Let's see what happens next! I can't wait for the new season to come sooner!"
Before Li Wan could respond to his provocation, many media and players, especially online fans, were already responding on Li Wan's behalf:
"Shut up, Green, you are not qualified to provoke Li Wan!"
"If you win a championship, you think you have such capital, then I have to tell you, you are still far away!"
"In this league, you can challenge Li Wan, but you can't provoke Li Wan like this! Winning a championship is only a temporary success. After you and your team win the 'four consecutive championships', it will be too late to say these words." In time!"
……
In the latest voting session of the "New York Times", "Dream Chasing" Green was successfully elected as the most hated player in the NBA!
This made him even more annoyed, and his words became more and more unscrupulous: "It's not a big deal, and it's not the first time I've been underestimated by others. In fact, Li Wan is not qualified to speak for Plan B, and I'm the one for Plan B." The best spokesperson!"
Now, Green's situation is even more dangerous...
The media wanted to interview Li Wan, and wanted to know his views on this matter.
only……
Tai Lun replied uniformly: "Li Wan is enjoying his vacation, plus one thing we all know, he just had his first child in his life, he really doesn't want to be disturbed!"
In fact, Li Wan didn't hate Green because of it.
In fact, after he became NBA No. 1, it has been a long time since anyone jumped face like this...
Compared with the 90s and 00s, the players in this era are really "good babies".
It has to be a bad-minded person like Green who dares to stand up and mock him!
Of course, he couldn't be like someone later, who was ridiculed before the game, and still engaged in "traveling at the wrong peak" there.
He can't wait for the new season to come soon, it's best to meet the Warriors in the first game, and then hit Green's face hard.
Let him know what it means to be "a person who cannot be messed with"!
It's just that before that, he really doesn't need to speak back publicly.
This instead gave Green more heat...
No need!
After signing Joe Johnson, the Cavaliers' lineup for the new season is basically formed:
"Position one: Li Wan, Curry;
Second position: Wade, Joe Johnson, Cook;
Third position: Wiggins, Pierce;
[-]th position: Chris Bosh, Larry Nance Jr.;
Fifth position: Adams, Kwame Brown, Cody Zeller;”
From the list of 15 people, there are still 3 places left.
It is worth mentioning that the salaries of these 12 people are as follows:
李万2043万、小库里78万、韦德1500万、乔-约翰逊78万、库克200万、维金斯576万、皮尔斯350万、克里斯-波什2000万、小拉里-南斯128万、亚当斯228万、夸梅-布朗500万、科迪-泽勒420万……
Add up, just under 8200 million knives.
You know, this year's salary cap is as high as 7300 million!
It is equivalent to saying that the Cavaliers' lineup has just touched the luxury tax line!
Can you imagine that a lineup with Li Wan, Wade, Joe Johnson, Pierce, and Bosh doesn't even need [-] million?
Even though Pierce and Joe Johnson are worthless this season, their combined actual price can easily exceed 800 million.
all of these……
It all depends on Li Wan's personal charm!
However, Griffin still has two things to do this summer. One is to deal with TT's expiring contract. In addition, Varejao's contract has expired. He is considering whether to renew his contract.
Compared with Varejao, Griffin is more concerned about keeping TT.
After all, after Chris Bosh was reimbursed for the season last season, he was the team's No. 7 starter. During this period of time, he grew rapidly. Rebounds are no problem!
This performance is enough for him to serve as the Cavaliers' backup fourth in the new season.
But because in this year's draft, they just won Larry Nance Jr., a rookie who is similar in function to the "Eight Sage Kings", Griffin is not willing to use too high a salary contract to renew the "Eight Sages". The virtuous king".
It is also this entanglement that makes Griffin not know how to bid, and simply waits for other teams to offer.At that time, he will decide whether to follow or not depending on the situation.
What he didn't expect was that before he could make a move, the agent of the "Eight Sage Kings", that is, Rich Paul, who later coerced LeBron into ordering the entire league, took the initiative to call Griffin and asked for a 5 Annual contract of 6000 million.
This made Griffin a little uncomfortable.
What kind of data do you dare to ask for such a big contract...
However, he did not make a decision on his own, but communicated with Li Wan first.
After Li Wan learned of Rich Paul's offer, he didn't get used to it: "Try to sign it first, if it doesn't work, just trade him!"
Griffin understood what Li Wan meant in seconds:
Sign first and then change!
Ever since, he decisively quoted the highest price he could give: 4 million in 3200 years!
If Thompson cannot be signed at this price, then Griffin will sign him with a higher price and then trade him out.
As for how to ensure that Thompson is still sold at a good price even though Thompson is signed with a high-priced contract...
Gryffindor has a plan too!
Soon, Rich Paul responded: "Man, you may not know Tristan's current market in the outside world, you should find out...you will understand!"
Facing his words, Griffin didn't say anything, but hung up the phone directly and read a few news about Thompson on the Internet.It is found that there are more news about him.
Most of them are similar news, such as "a certain team executive revealed that it will spend 5 million yuan in five years to win Thompson", and "the general manager of a certain team decided to compete with the Cavaliers for Thompson with a four-year 7000 million offer contract"...
Without exception, they are all unconfirmed gossip!
Who made these news, there is no doubt that it must be Rich Paul.
But the problem is...
The general manager is so stupid that he really believes it!
If he offers Thompson 4 million in four years, the general managers of other teams will definitely follow, and it will be him who is riding a tiger.
But if his price is higher...
Didn't Thompson just hit it in his hand?
By that time, as Rich Paul wished!
Griffin had to admit that although Rich Paul's moves were simple and rough, even crude, they were indeed effective.
After determining that Thompson could not be renewed at a price of 4 million for four years, Griffin decisively changed his mind.
He is going to try to trade Thompson in exchange for a more cost-effective bargaining chip for the Cavaliers!
Now I have to talk about his prepared plan...
He is going to inquire from his sources about the limit price that the general managers are willing to follow up with Thompson's contract, and then sign him with a contract that is not so limit, maybe three or four million cheaper, and then sell it again ...
Don't look at it's just a few million cheaper, but it's cheap, some general managers are really greedy!
This will not let Thompson go in vain, but also allow Thompson to get the smallest contract possible!
Are you plotting against me?
Let me show you, what a fucking calculation!
According to the current situation, the Lakers will definitely enter the playoffs.But it's also true. One of the hottest things in the league now is to watch LeBron touch Jordan. If he can't make the playoffs for two consecutive years, this topic may end before it even starts.
But the current situation is that even if LeBron travels off-peak, he may not be able to keep his data when facing some strong teams.So I'm already looking forward to the playoffs!
Of course, if the league continues to boast like this after entering the playoffs, then I can only say one thing: the father of the league is not the father, but the father of Nike is the big father!
