Reverse Growth Superstar

: 209: How much do you guess?

On June 13, 2011, the Dallas Mavericks once again defeated the Miami Heat on the road. The victory of this game allowed the Dallas Mavericks to win the first NBA championship trophy in NBA history.

Dirk Nowitzki cried with joy after the game. He went to the player tunnel as soon as the match was over. Later he admitted that he was secretly crying.

The German finally got up from where he fell. In 2006, the Mavericks were brought back by the Heat with a 2-0 lead and lost the championship. Five years later, Nowitzki led the team to get revenge and won the late O'Brien Cup. At the same time, he finally got rid of his "soft bastard" infamy.

Although the Big Three Heat, who originally thought that would rule the entire league, reached the finals, they lost to the Mavericks "accidentally", which undoubtedly exceeded most people's expectations. The omnipotent LeBron James averaged only 17 points per game during the Finals. His struggles and downturn in this round of the series are unprecedented.

The Mavericks killed the Heat in 6 games, and Nowitzki played superbly in the finals. Even in the case of a high fever, he still steadily invested in key goals.

Of course, Bosh said he was very dissatisfied. "On the court, no one found him sick at all, and no one pointed out that he had a fever."

What Bosh meant was that the media and fans made up their minds about playing sick.

It sounds like being defeated by Nowitzki, who doesn't have a fever, is pretty glorious...

Nowitzki's battle can be described as the first battle, his performance this season is completely worthy of the title of "superstar".

At this point, the 2010-2011 season officially ushered in the finale. In the end, the Big Three of the Heat could only go home with an Eastern Conference champion in despair, which was really a hit...

After the finals, the Mavericks and Nowitzki undoubtedly became the subject of heated discussion. After all, judging from the lineup on paper, the Mavericks do not seem to be as luxurious as the Heat with the three giants.

This comparison undoubtedly makes the Mavericks champion more gold. Of course, this also highlights the impressive strength of the Mavericks players.

But after the finals, someone discovered another interesting thing.

"The Mavericks are so strong this season, and Nowitzki is so superb this season. So, what is the level of the Grizzlies who pushed the Mavericks into desperation? After all, even the Miami Heat can only play in the Mavericks. He won two games with him. The Grizzlies also won the Mavericks two games."

As soon as this topic came out, it detonated the entire public opinion circle. Inexplicably, the Memphis Grizzlies became popular after being eliminated for half a month.

After all, their rise is so fast. Even after the finals, their match with the Mavericks in the Western Conference finals is still impressive.

The day after the finals, Jeff Austin visited Link. This summer will be very long, so when the Austin season ends, Link is found, and the vacation plan must be planned early.

"As you wish, you were finally eliminated by this year's championship." Jeff Austin said as soon as he saw Link.

"Um...what does it mean as I wish. If I can, I would definitely prefer to be a championship instead of being defeated by a championship." Link was speechless, Austin's sneer sometimes really makes people Can't laugh.

But on second thought, this year's Grizzlies are really strong enough. In the original history, the Grizzlies never even passed the Thunder. But after having themselves, the Grizzlies defeated the Thunder 4-2 this year and topped the Spurs 4-1, all with better results than the original history.

In the end, although they lost 4-2 to the Mavericks, apart from the first game, the Mavericks had no easy game. In this way, the performance of the Grizzlies and the Heat in the finals are basically the same.

But you have to know that the Grizzlies don't have the Big Three.

Although it is still unwilling to be eliminated by the championship, at least it is not ashamed. Moreover, it also allows the Grizzlies to see hope.

"Okay, don't think about the championship. Why have you been there in the past few days?" Austin waved his hand. Compared to the championship, he is quite familiar with Link's life since the offseason. interested.

"I didn't do anything. I studied the draft roster." Link pouted and began to recall his boring holiday.

Recently, Link took a look at the 2011 draft roster. After all, he is a person with a "sky eye", even the best scout in the world, the ability to predict whether a rookie will become a talent is not as powerful as Link.

Although the Grizzlies didn't have a first-round pick this year, it shouldn't be difficult to trade a 30th overall pick. Who can pick the 30th pick? Jimmy Butler! Who would have thought that this guy who is completely under-respected could become a superstar in the future?

But if Link runs over and tells Chris Wallace directly, let him trade a 30th overall pick, and then choose a little-known player... Chris Wallace probably thinks Lin Go crazy.

If a player's position in a team is high enough, then he can indeed influence the team's selection in the draft. He can decide who his helper is, and the team will definitely be obedient.

But it is clear that Link does not have such a status yet. Not to mention him, even Randolph and Conley and others have absolutely no such right. The Grizzlies have failed in the draft in recent years, with Thabeet before Mayo. After finally choosing a reliable Henry, he became a glass man.

Therefore, the Grizzlies will strictly judge their choices in the draft, and it is impossible to fully listen to a player's advice.

Link now only hopes that his performance in the next few seasons will be better. When his position in the Grizzlies is absolutely lofty, his "eye of the sky" will also be able to play a role in the draft.

As for the 30th overall pick in the second round...Isaiah Thomas is indeed inspiring, but the Grizzlies already have Conley, and Thomas will not be able to play a role. Therefore, Link did not make any suggestions for the second round of the draft.

In summary, Link can only fulfill his responsibilities as a player now. Interfere with team personnel changes? Participate in team building? Link has not reached that level yet, so he has to keep working hard!

"Then... I went fishing with Randolph a few times, and had a few drinks with Tony Allen. Then, it's today."

In two sentences, Link concluded his holiday life over the past few days. Jeff Austin shook his head, really boring!

"Let’s tell you business. We are very unlucky this year, because according to the current situation, the labor-management negotiations are likely to break. If it does break down, the free agent market may not open as expected. There is no doubt that this will affect To our contract."

"Um... it will definitely break down. If we can negotiate, we will have reached an agreement." Link pouted. If history does not go wrong, this year's NBA will not be closed until the end of December due to the issue of suspension. Open fight. Jeff Austin is right, this will be a long vacation.

"You are now a restricted free agent, so before the free agent market opens, the Grizzlies can still provide you with a qualification quote. The maximum amount of qualification quotes can only be 125% of last season's salary, which is very low. It’s obviously inconsistent with your strength. But don’t worry, this is just a protective measure for the Grizzlies. The qualification offer is just for the Grizzlies to match other teams’ offers.

"Well, I'm not too worried about the signing of ~www.readwn.com~" Link nodded, Battier said well, unless the Grizzlies are stupid, it is impossible to let him go easily. Link still has this confidence.

"Don't worry, don't worry, you should always care? You are not curious, will the Grizzlies give you a contract? Let me start with, Randolph's annual salary this season is 14.5 million. According to this Standard, how much do you think the Grizzlies can give you in a year?" Austin closed the door, but Link was not surprised at these numbers.

As a person who has traveled from 2019, Link has seen more than 30 million annual salary. Link has also seen the players who got 30 million in a year and were still rejected. In this era, the annual salary of more than 10 million yuan, sounds not so overbearing.

However, Link was still a little excited when he thought that these more than 10 million were put into his own pocket. This is more than 10 million US dollars! 10 times the salary this year! What can 10 million do? Do whatever you want!

No, do whatever you want...

"Hmm...give me 14 million a year?" Link thought to himself, Randolph is so powerful now, he shouldn't be higher than Randolph.

"You are so courageous. The top pick Wall's four-year rookie contract is only 24 million. You want to get 14 million a year?"

"Hey, I guessed it." Link scratched his head, is it too high?

"The Grizzlies are willing to provide you with a three-year, $45 million contract, which is 15 million a year. You guessed it wrong, Link."

Link looked at Jeff Austin, who was screaming in surprise, and he turned out to be a low guess!

This guy Austin showed off his negotiating ability, really a set!
