I am so Accurate - Chapter 680
Before the end of the free market, Sun Hao ended his vacation and returned to Los Angeles.
As soon as he arrived in Los Angeles, Kupchak sent him another good news.
Carter is willing to renew the contract with the Lakers, and it is a salary reduction renewal.
Although Carter performed poorly last season, after all, he was a semi-All-Star the previous season.
He is worth 8-10 million in the market.
But his most follow-up price for the Lakers is 4 million a year, and the total contract value is 12 million for 3 years!
This is the same as buying things, I will give you a 50% discount!
Sun Hao was a little surprised.
But understanding can be understood.
Carter has not had a championship in his career, so the championship will be his biggest goal for the next career.
In this free market in the past, he mostly had contact with other championship teams, and finally found that the Lakers had the most opportunities.
“He didn’t want to leave Los Angeles in this way.”
Kupchak also told Sun Hao another reason why Carter chose to cut his salary and stay on the team.
The stars of the last century were all spine. Although Carter carried the team on his shoulders in the darkest time of the Lakers, this dark period also shows that his Lakers career was a failure.
Especially since Sun Hao came back last season, his performance has been very hip, giving people the feeling that he has been dragging his feet.
If he chooses to leave at this time, then this Lakers career will become the biggest black spot of his career.
So he didn’t want something like that to happen.
Of course, there is another point, Yao Ming joined.
The addition of Yao Ming has greatly increased the strength of the Lakers. They have the ability to wrestle with the Warriors and Knicks. At this time, staying is the wisest choice.
After Carter also chose to renew, the Lakers’ roster for the new season has become very substantial.
Point guards: Knight, Billups, Thomas Jr.
Shooting guards: Sun Hao, Jimmy Butler
Small front: Carter, Rudy Fernandez, Shane Battier
Big Front: Millsap, Bertans, Draymond Green
Center: Yao Ming, Jason Smith, Kyle O’Queen
With this lineup, you only need to sign another guard, or just like that, a 14-man lineup can enter the season.
And what can be encountered is that because the Lakers roster has a lot of people, this last spot will have a lot of people squeezed and bloodied.
The free market is coming to an end, and the signings of other people have gradually settled.
Curry and the Warriors reached a five-year maximum salary extension.
Because of the advance correction of the way of exerting force, he did not suffer serious injuries, but also because of Sun Hao’s departure and his own outstanding performance last season, the “biggest child labor” in Curry’s history will not appear.
But this may be the right way to open a career.
At the same time that he renewed Curry’s contract, he also renewed McGrady with a basic salary, and then signed veteran O’Neal from the free market.
The Warriors have retained the core lineup of the previous Dynasty and have some reinforcements. They now have a good chance to hit the four consecutive championships on the basis of the Dynasty!
That’s what Sun Hao and O’Neill wanted to accomplish but failed to accomplish in the end!
Here, the free market freezing period has come to an end.
On the second day after the end of the freezing period, a number of contracts were officially reached, including the Lakers’ tripartite deal.
Yao Ming officially joined the Lakers!
Only the second day, the Lakers held a press conference to join Yao Ming.
Although this press conference was held earlier than usual, there were still reporters on the scene.
I said before that the media had long wanted to know the details of Yao Ming joining the Lakers, but they had nowhere to go.
Now they finally have an official press conference, they will naturally not miss it.
In addition to Yao Ming, Buzz, Kupchak, Harris, and Sun Hao participated in the conference.
Before the conference started, Kupchak showed the fans Yao Ming’s Lakers No. 11 jersey.
The Lakers’ retired jersey numbers are many, but they don’t include the number 11.
And this jersey is extra-large, which is also efficient.
Yao Ming took the jersey and showed it first. With a smile on his mouth, he could see that he was still in a good mood after making the decision.
After the jerseys were displayed, Buzz, Kupchak and Harris all said some welcome words, and then the reporter asked questions.
Yao Ming’s performance in front of the media is somewhat similar to Sun Hao, both of which are more realistic, with a touch of unique humor.
For example, when a reporter asked Yao Ming about a slightly sensitive topic.
“There is a saying among fans now that the combination of you and Sun is the combination of the first center and the first man, which makes the NBA lose its suspense. What do you think of this statement?”
This problem has appeared before the beginning of the free market, and it can be regarded as one of the problems of the reporter.
And it’s not easy to answer, because if the answer is yes, it seems very pretentious, and if the answer is no, it seems very uncomfortable.
Yao Ming’s answer is:
“Does this include fans from the Bay Area and New York?”
A rhetorical question, and this sentence has already made the reporters below laugh.
The way smart people answer questions is never just yes or no.
And this is not an avoidance.
Because of this rhetorical question, another way is, you ask, do other championship teams know?
is a rhetorical question, but in fact it is also an answer.
Because if the NBA really loses its suspense, then other teams should lie down and compete.
But the reality is clearly not the case.
This answer can be regarded as giving Los Angeles fans the most intuitive understanding of Yao Ming’s temper outside the field.
Honestly, such a character…very attractive!
Sun Hao is so popular with Americans. In addition to his personal skills, he also has a humorous character.
Yao Ming is exactly the same!
Because of Yao Ming’s personality, the atmosphere of the conference has become extremely relaxed.
But FOX Sports, which has always liked to do things, in a relaxed atmosphere, a reporter asked a question that was not only sensitive, but very provocative.
“Reggie Miller once said that if Jordan calls to recruit him, he will say ‘FXCK. YOU’ to Jordan. Has Sun called you?”
When this question came out, there was already a stir below.
This is so direct, I almost pointed to Yao Ming’s nose and said he was too spineless compared to Miller.
Yao Ming was also taken aback at this time.
Wisdom is only useful among civilized people. The so-called “it is unreasonable for a talented person to meet a soldier” and if the other party directly sprays it, wisdom will not work.
Sun Hao took the initiative to bring the microphone in front of him at this time.
The Lakers are his team, Los Angeles is his site, and Yao Ming is his friend and new teammate. In this case, he has to stand up anyway.
“A month ago, you said that Yao had been injured, and if the Wizards renewed his contract, he would ruin the future of the team. Why is he the number one center in the league again in Los Angeles? He is Michael Miller again? ”
Sun Hao, he directly responded.
And that’s why he didn’t rush to respond to the outside world before.
It is you who said that Yao Ming is no longer good, and it is also you who said that Yao Ming is the first center to come to Los Angeles.
It’s up to you whether to work together or not. It’s only fun to watch someone else be the uncrowned king forever? !
Before the reporter responded, Sun Hao immediately said another sentence.
“Many people say how successful I was last season and set so many records. Some even said that last season belonged to me. But everyone knows that last season’s championship was not the Lakers, but the Warriors. This is called success. ?”
With these two consecutive sentences, Sun Hao immediately took the initiative in his own hands.
“No, this is not success, this is frustration.”
Sun Hao asked and answered himself, turned his head and glanced at Yao Ming after answering.
“The same is true for Yao. He has kept the Wizards in the championship all year round but has never succeeded. Our combination is not a combination of two first men, nor is it a combination of Reggie Miller and Michael Jordan. We are just two frustrated people walking together for the championship.”
Yao Ming said that he was a little bit heartbroken, because his name as the “King of Sanya” was really painful, but he still nodded.
Because Sun Hao is telling the truth.
Sun Hao’s words are not finished yet.
“Of course, if you think what I have said is not enough, if you still insist on talking about Miller and Jordan, I think you should first ask Garnett if Pierce called him.”
Pretty!
When Sun Hao finished this sentence, the little Buss beside him couldn’t help laughing.
Everyone knows that Sun Hao and Garnett have an antagonism, but there is nothing wrong with this wave.
The instigator of the star cluster is the Boston Big Three.
And after that, other teams have gotten together a lot, so you just carried Yao Ming and said?
What’s more, the Lakers are a bunch of farts.
If Carter, who was in the same state as last season, is also considered a giant, then this league is not a group.
In this wave of waves, the FOX reporter was speechless.
Besides, maybe he didn’t expect Sun Hao’s reaction to be so intense.
Some people with high EQ quickly reacted.
Because it is Yao Ming!
The relationship between Sun Hao and Yao Ming is not just that they come from the same country.
Among the Chinese players, except for Yi Jianlian, Yao Ming and Sun Hao have the best relationship.
Sun Hao’s “protecting shortcomings” also made all reporters realize that, if you want to embarrass Yao Ming in Los Angeles in the future, you should think about it.
…
After Yao Ming, other signings and transactions that had previously reached verbal agreements were also reached one after another.
This is also something that happens every year. The so-called freezing period is more because the league has to calculate the salary cap for the new season.
Under normal circumstances, it will not happen that a verbal agreement is reached and finally repentance will occur.
Because this is related to the credibility of the players and the team, once someone or the team does that, then he is in the league…
and many more!
Just as the signing was proceeding in an orderly manner, a message that ESPN broke out was in the league.
Deron, who had reached a verbal agreement with the Nets before, regretted it!
This is simply a swell of waves, because no one has done this before!
In the eyes of the public, more details have been exposed one after another.
The team that made Delong regretted is the Lone Ranger team!
In the case that all the championship teams have strengthened one after another, the Lone Ranger team did not advance and retreated. Not only did they have no reinforcement but left Kidd in vain.
For teams aiming to compete for the championship, it is more painful to be doomed to fail before they start than to lose the championship.
Kuban obviously didn’t want that.
So, a special scene appeared.
Before the end of the free market, the management of the Lone Ranger team flew consecutive charter flights to Charlotte and blocked Deron at home.
After hours of hard work, they finally managed to persuade Deron to change his attention.
And because Iguodala has already jumped out of the contract before, and is preparing to renew a new contract with the Mavericks, this allows the Mavericks to free up the salary space to directly sign Deron with a little manipulation.
Or in other words, Deron only needs both Deron and the Mavericks to join the Mavericks, and does not require the cooperation of the Hornets!
So, this unprecedented thing happened like this.
This move angered the Nets.
But they are helpless.
Because this actually doesn’t violate any rules!
Sun Hao was also taken aback for a while when he saw this news.
Because this thing is similar in history, isn’t this a copy of Joe Shouxin… Virtue Shouxin!
In history, Jordan has done such a thing!
At the time, it was Jordan who agreed to join the Mavericks, but was blocked by the Clippers management and teammates, and finally regretted it!
The result is that Jordan was “famous in the first world war”!
And the interesting thing is that Jordan joined the Mavericks in the end and was sent away by the Mavericks the following year.
Now because of Sun Hao’s butterfly effect, the little Jordan’s thing has not happened again, but now it is all right, Deron took it.
Although, the explanation can be explained.
If you go to the Nets, although there are many young players, it is obviously incomparable with the Mavericks.
The Mavericks have Nowitzki, Chandler and Iguodala, how better than the current Nets!
Especially for Deron, who is in the first round of the Hornets every year, and is often seen by 58 people, the temptation is indeed too much.
So to explain from this angle, it seems to be human nature.
This is Deron… toxic!
At first it was 58 Long, and then Long and trustworthy, this wool wouldn’t be put on a person like this!
Feeling finished, UU reading www. uukanshu.com Sun Hao suddenly had a lot more expectations for next season.
After all, the Mavericks have completed this wave, and their core lineup for next season will have four All-Star players!
This is definitely a super team. It has the capital to compete with the Warriors and the Knicks!
Some people here might ask whether the Mavericks can eat the luxury tax?
The answer is to eat.
I mentioned earlier that Iguodala jumped out of the contract. He and the Mavericks will renew a four-year contract of about 48 million yuan.
So they sent away Terry’s middle-class contracts, leaving four big contracts and making up some role players, and they can complete the operation.
It’s just that they have to pay a lot of super luxury tax.
This is the same result as the previous Knicks operation to get Hibbert.
Well, this wave can be regarded as a complete start of the “Bao Tuan era”!
But this is the beginning of this era, which has doubled the expectations of Lakers fans.
In contrast, the Lakers are still a rare dual-core lineup.
If such a lineup can finally defeat the final championship of this group of teams, then this championship must be of great significance!
