Anlo did not want to discuss the possibility of the team winning the championship after losing Paul George. Because, he put all his energy into the International Men’s Basketball World Cup held at home. Besides, he believes that many people will come forward to discuss this matter soon. At that time, all the unexpected possibilities that people can imagine will emerge.
Westbrook talked with An Luo on the phone for a while. Although the other party was talking about it, An Luo understood the core meaning of the call, which was to persuade An Luo to stay in the Oklahoma City Thunder.
In fact, regarding the early renewal of the contract with An Luo, at the beginning of last season, Presti had already started discussions with An Luo’s agent team. It’s just that at that time, the Thunder were still on their way to defending the title, and An Luo was not the next FMVP. At that time, Presti was more confident, he even wanted to renew An Luo with a contract close to the maximum salary in advance. Of course, the two sides did not start formal negotiations on this matter. This matter has always been in a stage of mutual trial, and there has been no contradiction.
Neither Bill Duffy or Zhang Mingji nor An Luo’s mother Fu Yao were too anxious about the contract renewal. Although Anluo’s development speed far exceeds their expectations, even Anluo’s own market value can give them the upper hand in handling Anluo’s contract renewal. As for An Luo himself, it was even less anxious. He has always been full of confidence in himself and believes that the Thunder will not be unwilling to provide a maximum salary renewal contract.
Of course Anlo thought about leaving Oklahoma. For example, Los Angeles, which he always prefers, is a good place to go. But Anluo, who has had two championships in hand, is now not the championship. He wants to become a player like Kobe, he must have his own team. The Lakers and Clippers won’t give him that opportunity. James, Davis, and Leonard won’t give him that opportunity. Even if he joins these two teams, it is just an important championship puzzle in the opposing lineup. And those teams that can give Anlow “status” are either star black holes like the New York Knicks, or small ball markets like the Charlotte Hornets and the Cleveland Cavaliers. To those places, An Luo might as well stay in Oklahoma.
Therefore, An Luo chose to stay with the Thunder in the end. Just after Paul George left, the Thunder officially announced the early renewal contract they signed with An Luo. $170 million in 5 years! In the last year, Anluo can decide whether to jump out of the contract early and become a free agent. A standard for a leading star!
How decisive is Presti? After he confirmed that Paul George would leave, he immediately contacted An Luo’s agent Bill Duffy, and gave An Luo a maximum salary contract. Moreover, Presti took his assistant to the celestial dynasty for the first time. After some detailed exchanges with Anluo, Bill Duffy and Zhang Mingji, the two parties quickly reached a consensus. In fact, for Anluo, what is waiting is such a contract. After all, An Luo is indeed a very good choice to keep the Thunder in such a situation. Since Thunder has given enough respect and sincerity, there is no need for An Luo and the others to delay.
What’s interesting is that the birth of An Luo’s billion-dollar contract did not cause much disturbance in the NBA circle. This is actually very much related to other players in the 2016 class. In this season, many players from the 2016 class have signed early renewal contracts with their teams. The rookies of 16 years, in this summer when the superstars gather, they have taken a lot of the limelight.
As the oldest group of rookies in the 16th, Hilde and the Kings team had a quarrel. Initially, the team only intended to give Hilder a four-year 88 million contract. In fact, this contract is pretty good. But Hilde doesn’t think so! The straight-forward Hilde sprayed directly at him, saying that such a contract was an insult to him.
As the saying goes, crying children have milk to eat. After a few days of negotiation, the young teenager finally renewed his contract with the king for four years and 94 million. After the bonuses were added, the contract could reach up to 106 million. Of course, Hilder’s strength should not be underestimated. You must know that last season, he averaged 20.7 points and 5 rebounds per game, making him one of the best players in the 16th session.
Jaylen Brown is also a 16th player. He has spent three seasons with the Celtics. Last season was not particularly dazzling in terms of statistics, although his performance was quite satisfactory. But the Celtics still signed a four-year $115 million contract with it. I have to say that the Celtics really dare to give it too! It can be seen that they are full of confidence in Jaylen Brown~www.mtlnovel.com~ that he has a lot to do in the future.
At first, the little-known Siakam signed a four-year, $130 million contract with the Raptors. Although Siakam’s performance in his rookie season was average, in the following two seasons, Siakam grew rapidly. Especially in the finals of last season, Siakam’s performance has subdued the Raptors management. Although he has not been able to help the team win the championship, he has shown his talent. When Leonard chose to leave Toronto, the Raptors were determined to take Siakam as the core of the team.
These three players are enviable. You can get a big contract that most NBA players can’t earn for a lifetime without spending a rookie contract. However, they are still a bit behind the players who have renewed their top salaries.
Murray of the Denver Nuggets won a five-year contract renewal totaling $170 million. Obviously, this player made great contributions to the team. Especially in the playoffs of last season, he played bravely, scoring 21.3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 4.7 assists. Murray is very important to the team at present, and he and Jokic will become the two core figures of the Nuggets.
No. 1 pick Ben Simmons also signed a five-year, $170 million contract with the 76ers. As the most superstar-like player of the 16th player, Simmons’s contract is indeed worth the money. He has strong physical fitness and is able to find himself in the penalty area. Even if his three-point shooting skills have been criticized by people, it does not prevent the 76ers from offering such a big contract.
Now with the addition of An Luo, there will be three players who have renewed their maximum salary in advance throughout the 16th session. These rookies three years ago have already revealed their edge!
