I’m Really Playing Basketball - Chapter 905
, the fastest update I’m really playing basketball latest chapter!
On July 1, 2022, the NBA free agency officially opened.
This year’s NBA free market does not have any big fish, especially when the market just started, there are some relatively small fish and shrimp news.
For example, this year’s Eastern Conference champion Bucks signed a four-year, $49 million contract with their @starting center Portis using an early bird right.
Although in this year’s finals, Portis was beaten enough by Chen Xiao, and even Chen Xiao’s 82 points in G5 of the finals, most of the credit can be attributed to Portis.
But in the Bucks, Portis’s role is still very large.
There is only one Chen Xiao in the entire league, and apart from Chen Xiao, Portis definitely plays a positive role in the Bucks’ system and played a very good role in the Eastern Conference finals against the Heat.
A mobile center who can run, jump and shoot three-pointers is still very useful in this era.
It’s just that he met Chen Xiao.
Therefore, even if his performance is very poor in front of Chen Xiao, 49 million in 4 years is still worth it.
What’s more, he is really compatible with the Bucks’ Big Three, and his offense is invincible. Of course, from another aspect, after losing the finals, the Bucks didn’t seem to plan to fight. The team intends to make massive changes.
This is actually understandable. After all, the Big Three of the Bucks are not young anymore. For the Bucks, stability is actually more important than radical reconstruction.
After leaving Portis and Holiday, the Bucks are still the best starting team in the league. In this case, as long as they continue to recruit some powerful veterans on the bench.
For example, former Jazz player Ingles signed with the Bucks for a minimum salary.
Although the Bucks are the runner-up, because Chen Xiao, the head player of the champion Warriors, has returned to the Nets, the attractiveness of the Warriors can be said to be far less than that of the Bucks. Can the Warriors without Chen Xiao be able to rush out of the western capital? Hard to say.
As for Chen Xiao’s current Nets team…
The Nets team is almost in ruins now. Except for Chen Xiao, Xiao Xiaochen and Ingram, the rest of the team can basically be called small fish and shrimp. With Chen Xiao, the future prospect of this Nets will definitely not be. Poor, but these leg-holding veterans need the present, not the future.
They really don’t have time to wait for the Nets’ future.
Therefore, in this year’s free market, the Bucks can be said to be the team at the top of the food chain.
Of course, although the attractiveness of the Warriors has been greatly reduced because of the departure of Chen Xiao and Jerry West, for the Warriors, attracting players from the free market this summer is not their main task.
The Warriors’ main task this season is actually to re-sign players whose contracts are about to expire.
Alexander, Michael Porter Jr., Marvin Bagley, Wiggins, these four players are the backbone players of the team after Chen Xiao left.
If possible, the Warriors would definitely want to keep all of them going.
And the first player of the four to complete a contract extension with the Warriors is Marvin Bagley, who has not been able to redeem his potential in the league over the years, and he overhauled for a season before this season. , was sent to Cleveland by the Warriors to recuperate for a season.
Although Bagley’s performance this season is still outstanding, because the uncertainty on him is too great, so no team is willing to take risks on him.
Most teams actually gave him a 3-year contract. After all, Cousins’ lessons from the past are still in sight. After Cousins was seriously injured, the Bobcats were willing to give him a five-year contract, but Cousins wanted a maximum salary. , eventually went to the free market, and ultimately no team was willing to give him a contract for more than three years.
Cousins is much bigger than Marvin Bagley.
As far as Marvin Bagley’s situation is now, there are teams willing to give him a 3-year contract, which is actually not bad.
But obviously, this is not what Marvin Bagley wants, and he is not very confident in his body, but the more so, the more he needs a long-term contract guarantee.
So, when the Warriors offered him a one-year, five-year, $80 million deal, Marvin Bagley agreed without a word.
Well, historically, Bagley’s contract extension with the Pistons is three years and $37 million.
Although Bagley’s situation in this time and space is much better than in history, in terms of his actual situation, the Warriors’ offer is still very sincere.
And Bagley obviously knew the sincerity of the Warriors, so the two sides agreed so decisively.
But the other three were different from Bagley.
In fact, little Michael Porter also has hidden dangers of injury. He was the champion of the championship in those days. In the end, because of a back injury, he almost fell all the way to the bottom.
In the past four years, in his career with the Warriors, Porter has never been troubled by back injuries. On the contrary, his three-pointers are accurate, he can shoot close to 50%, plus his previous talents and His current strength, coupled with his current age.
Seriously, a lot of teams would love to get him.
Even the Nuggets who pursued him the craziest were willing to offer him a 4-year, 120 million max contract.
In the face of such a super contract offered by the Nuggets, it is reasonable to say that although the Warriors also wanted to renew Michael Porter Jr., they had to give up in the end.
In the end, Michael Porter Jr. left the Warriors and went to the Nuggets.
After losing Michael Porter Jr., the Warriors will definitely renew their contract with Alexander.
Although the Warriors already have two guards in Morant and Kyrie Irving, Alexander is a player that the team has developed, and Alexander is showing a very strong ability now.
Let’s just put it this way, no one knows what Kyrie Irving will look like when he comes to the Warriors. In this case, keeping Alexander is a pressure and a motivation for Irving.
If Owen is not obedient, having Alexander can also give Owen more sense of crisis and let him not mess around.
Therefore, the Warriors did not meet Michael Porter Jr.’s maximum salary requirements, but they did meet Alexander’s maximum salary requirements.
With a five-year, $172 million max contract, Alexander eventually stayed with the Golden State Warriors.
After giving Alexander a big contract, Wiggins knew that his contract extension with the Warriors was impossible to get a big contract with a maximum salary.
In fact, before the Warriors renewed their contract with Alexander, Wiggins pressed the Warriors for a five-year, $230 million max contract.
But in the end, the Warriors rejected his forced palace and backhanded the max salary to Alexander.
The meaning is very obvious.
That is, even if Wiggins renews his contract, his status in the Warriors is definitely not as good as Alexander’s.
In the case of Morant’s boss, Alexander is the second child, while Wiggins competes with Irving for third at most.
How can a team’s third-in-command have a maximum salary?
The Warriors’ positioning of Wiggins is also understandable.
Don’t look at Wiggins’ performance in this year’s finals is very good, but this guy also has a criminal record. Who knows if you will lose your health after you get a big contract?
Even this time you didn’t get a big contract, but a big contract plus a championship!
It can be said that for Wiggins, all the pursuits of his career have been completed.
In this case, who knows if he will rot more thoroughly?
Therefore, although the Warriors want to renew the contract with Wiggins, they also kept second-hand preparations, that is, to give Wiggins a 4-year contract of 108 million yuan with an annual salary of 27 million yuan. Is this a big contract?
This is definitely a big contract, but the average salary is 27 million and the average salary that Wiggins wants is more than 40 million. That gap is quite huge.
And importantly, this contract is not fully guaranteed, but a 3+1 contract.
This made Wiggins even more uncomfortable.
Let’s just say, if free agency could offer a better deal, Wiggins would have left the Golden State Warriors without a word.
Because he felt that the Warriors’ treatment of his championship hero was too dark.
Well, at the beginning, Wiggins did think so, he felt that the Warriors treated him very black.
His former Timberwolves teammate, Towns, now has a four-year, 230 million contract with an average salary of 60 million.
He never considered himself worse than Downs.
Taking a contract of more than 40 million yuan by himself is already a price for the Warriors.
Why did the Warriors give him a 4-year, 108 million contract, but they ignored him, if he wanted it, or if he didn’t, he would get out?
With such a contract, is the Warriors floating, or is it stupid, and actually thinks it is a charity to him.
But over time, Wiggins slowly discovered that it seemed that the Warriors’ contract was the best contract he could get…
Because, no other team is willing to offer him a contract of more than 3 years.
A contract with the highest annual salary is 3 years and 90 million, but it is a 2+1 contract.
Yes, most of the offers he received were 2+1 contracts.
It can only be said that when Wiggins is now renewing his second big contract, he finally got the bitter fruit of playing health basketball.
There are no fools in this world. When your performance on the court is not worthy of your salary, you must not be complacent, thinking that those who work hard are fools, and it is a big contract to play casually.
Now, those desperate people can already sign 60 million contracts, and you, even 30 million, can’t sign.
In the finals this year, facing Durant, Wiggins actually regretted that he had been wasting his talent in the past.
And now, when he signed a big contract, he regretted it even more.
When his word of mouth is broken, it is no longer possible to pick up the lost word of mouth.
Let’s just put it this way, even if he plays hard in the future, others will think that he is pretending to work hard to get a big contract, and will not give him another big contract.
From now on, he will never be able to get a max contract like Towns and the others.
Even the 4-year, 108 million contract with the Warriors, whom he dislikes very much, is already a good contract he can get.
Wiggins actually really didn’t want to sign this contract, but in the end, Wiggins signed his name on the contract and chose to stay with the Golden State Warriors.
So far, the four core players that the Warriors need to renew this year, except for Michael Porter Jr., who was poached by the Nuggets with a maximum salary, the other three people have some twists and turns, but finally all completed the renewal.
In addition to these three core players, like Jeff Green and Anthony, they all jumped out of their contracts and left the Warriors.
Let’s just put it this way, both of them came to the Warriors to win the championship. Now that the championship has been won, it is natural to find their next goal.
Jeff Green wants to get a big contract, where the contract is high.
And Anthony needs the team’s position because he wants to complete his career goal of 30,000 points.
So in the end Jeff Green went to the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies gave him a three-year, $24 million mid-level contract, and Anthony went to the Timberwolves.
Timberwolves head coach Garnett promised that as long as Anthony goes to the Timberwolves, he is willing to give Anthony @ the opportunity to start, and will also develop special tactics for Anthony.
To be fair, the growth of the Timberwolves over the years has not been so smooth, because the team lacks a leader at a critical moment.
Towns and Nongmei are both very talented players, but a big brother like Anthony is needed on the court.
Although Rondo is also a big brother-type player, but Rondo’s current combat effectiveness, that is, I really don’t know what to say.
I am afraid that only the mouth is still at the peak of the whole body.
In short, the Warriors have completed their reconstruction after Chen Xiao left.
By the way, the Warriors selected Holmgren, a young insider, with the third overall pick this year, and got a very promising young player in the center position, plus Bagley, Wiggins, Alexander and Irving also all Still very young, so this Warriors team can actually look forward to the future.
Of course, the premise is that Holmgren can grow up in the future.
But in any case, after the Warriors left Chen Xiao, the pace of stepping out is still steady.
This year’s free market is not big, so the NBA’s public opinion focus is on July 1, and almost all of it is staring at the signing ceremony of the Nets and this year’s draft No. 1 pick Xiao Chen on July 7.
Because at this signing ceremony, Chen Xiao will also make his first public appearance.
At two o’clock in the afternoon on July 7, the signing site of the Nets and Xiao Xiaochen was almost surrounded by New Jersey fans.
And when the team’s owner Kidd showed up with Chen Xiao, Xiao Chen, Ingram, Drummond, Joe Harris, Bruce Brown Nets players, the whole scene went crazy.
Yes, the whole scene was madly shouting God’s voice.
This shocked Ingram and others who saw this kind of battle for the first time.
“Is this what Nets fans love God?”
They feel it!
Especially Ingram.
God just played one year with the Nets. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
And he’s been with the Nets for six years.
The cheers from the Nets fans that Chen Xiao is now getting makes Ingram feel that he has lived in the belly of a dog for the past six years with the Nets.
At the signing ceremony of Xiaoxiaochen, Kidd specially asked Chen Xiao to welcome Xiaoxiaochen as the team representative.
So, when Xiao Xiaochen signed the contract and Chen Xiao and Xiao Xiaochen shook hands with a smile, the reporters on the scene went crazy.
And on the Internet all over the world, when Chen Xiao and Xiaoxiao Chen wore No. 7 and No. 15 to shake hands, the entire Internet went crazy.
“Crazy, I’m announcing the birth of the only father-son All-Star team in NBA history!”
Wheat, who broadcast the signing ceremony, was very excited!
