The Rest, Only Noise

"The rest, only noise(!

Louis inspected the road for three days.

Together with Deng Shimo, we finalized the list of ten people for the third phase of the trip to the United States.

These ten people are Kang Chengbiao, Wu Qi, Xiao Laoban, Zheng Bian, Chu Nan, Du Shuai, Lin Zhiwei, Du Weiguo, Lu Gensheng, and Zhang Baoyu.

Deng Shimo said that this is the golden generation.

Louis also thinks so, although none of them are stronger than Hu Weidong in the first phase, and their development prospects are not as good as Yu Tiancan who grows wildly, but this is like a draft conference. It is often not the top players, but the middle players, that decide whether the draft is a big year or a small year.

2019 has the most talked about champion of the decade, but it was still a small year. In the 2014 draft, even though the talents of the lottery were suffering from injuries, there were still a large number of players who became the backbone of the league, that is, the draft year.

After that, Louis started the establishment of the NBA China Basketball Academy.

Although this matter was led by Louis, it later became a cooperation between the NBA and the Chinese Basketball Association.

The college is located in Liaoning, the three northeastern provinces.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the three eastern provinces have been rich in sports talents. Even in 2020 before Louis crossed over, a large number of players in the CBA still came from the three eastern provinces. It is only limited by the training mechanism in the province, resulting in a large outflow of talents.

Placing the NBA China Basketball Academy in Liaoning will maximize local talent.

Because of this, Louis was so busy that he didn't have time to go to the capital with his family until the end of July.

That was Louis' rare few days off since the end of the season.

Seeing the obvious stubble growing on Louie's face, Lorraine asked him, "Why do you work so hard for China's basketball career?"

She didn't say a word. Strictly speaking, Louis's current status cannot be regarded as Chinese.

It is difficult for Louis to answer such a thing.

When he did this, he really just wanted to use his influence to dig out those buried talents and give them a platform to show themselves.

As he fiddled, the movement became louder and louder.

He changed the pattern of domestic basketball. No matter how Luyuan and the NBA China Basketball Academy develop in the future, Louis will leave his name in this history. Also, his name will be bolded and remembered as a key figure.

Now to ask Louie to say why he did this, he couldn't.

He is not so noble.

Just like in his previous life, he also read novels. He saw those who traveled back to the past. No matter what their original intentions were, after they developed, they would always do something to benefit the people around them. It's always a pleasure to see that kind of plot, because all the readers think that if they had the chance to go back in time and be a human being, they would too.

"I just did my job," Louis replied to his wife.

After the establishment of the NBA China Basketball Academy, it was determined that the school will start in September this year. After the promotion of the Basketball Association, they suddenly became a more attractive school than the Road Academy.

Louis didn't mind. For China, this meant that there was an extra channel to travel to the United States.

The admissions of the Road Academy may be more dependent on the scouts running around the country, and this is the original intention of Louis. Those good seedlings that are visible to the naked eye need to be scrambled for, and digging out those seedlings buried in the crowd with the same top-notch qualifications is the reason why he established the road courtyard.

In addition, Louis also became the middleman for the men's basketball national team to go to the United States for training.

This year, the national team has two major changes compared to the past.

As in the past, as long as there is a national team game, the Knicks will release Song Tao's contract, making him an "amateur player" who is not bound by a professional contract to participate in the Olympics.

And Yu Tiancan, a 19-year-old young man who had no achievements in Chinese sports schools but attracted attention in the American basketball world, joined the national training team and was successfully selected for the first team.

During the US rallies, the national team was arranged to train at the Blue Palace, the training ground of the New York Knicks.

Through Louie's relationship, they played 8 warm-up games with the Continental Basketball Association (CBA) and the US National Basketball Team in training.

They won two of them.

Yu Tiancan's national team debut started from here.

He played less than 20 minutes per game and averaged 8 points, 5 rebounds and 2 blocks per game.

John Thompson revealed that he had considered recruiting Yu Tiancan, but he did not want to break the example of Georgetown University's all-black class, so he gave up. In fact, this was his compliment. He and Louis were friends, so he helped Yu Tiancan to make a move.

With these few games, Yu Tiancan not only proved that he was by no means a false name, but also made a name for himself in the country.

When domestic reporters who traveled across the ocean to the United States asked him where Yu Tiancan came from.

Yu Tiancan said foolishly, "I'm from Luyuan, hee hee."

After the reporter's explanation, the domestic audience knew that the Luyuan was the Shangyu Basketball Academy founded by Louis, and Yu Tiancan's mouth was indirectly helping the Luyuan to promote it.

The U.S. zipper ended, and the national team went to Seoul to participate in the 1988 Olympic Games.

When Louis returned to the United States, it was August 2nd.

A busy summer is finally over.

He has plenty of time to rest and adjust before the new season starts.

The Knicks are actively renewing their contracts with the main players.

John Stockton was renewed for four years, and it was a four-year, $4 million contract.

Oakley's five-year, $3.5 million contract was renewed for five years.

Alex Stevens decided to tie up with the Knicks, he signed a 7-year, 3.5 million contract extension.

After Michael Cooper was drafted by the Heat, the Knicks automatically got an expansion draft exception.

This exception is to compensate the team that drafted the player.

If the selected player has a contract, compensation for a signing exception that does not count against the salary cap depends on the size of the selected player's contract.

If the pick is a free agent, the number of exceptions he signs is based on the number of his new contract.

With Michael Cooper signing a new three-year, $3.6 million deal with the Heat, plus the last year of Dale Ellis' remaining contract, the Knicks suddenly have a nearly $2 million expansion draft exception.

The Knicks divided the expansion draft exception into three parts, one of which was reserved for signing Song Tao, who played the national team game.

A portion was offered for Danny Ainge for $1.6 million.

For the rest, they offered Kevin McHale a five-year, $6 million extension.

The value of these contracts is that they don't count toward the salary cap.

Most people's contract renewals are basically normal, but two people have gone wrong.

Wilson and John Salley, respectively.

Salley's agent opened his mouth wide at the numbers, determined to take a bite out of the Knicks.

They called out a four-year, $6 million contract.

Baylor began a nearly month-long quarrel with Salley's agent.

After Louis heard the news, he gave Baylor a trick.

After negotiation between the two sides, Salley finally signed a three-year, 4.5 million contract extension with the Knicks.

The contract was complicated because Salley was only paid $600,000 for the first year of the contract, followed by $1.9 million and $2 million for the next two years.

Sely's agent didn't know which one Louis was singing, but as long as he made a lot of money, there would be no problem.

They signed.

The contract hurts Baylor.

"This is the worst contract I've ever given in my career!" Baylor complained. "Why does John Salley get $2 million a year?"

Louie laughed: "But he only took 600,000 in the first year."

"But we have to give him 1.9 million in the second year, and 2 million in the third year. With that money, you can rob Ralph Sampson!"

Louie said softly: "Don't forget, there are two expansion teams next year."

"what do you mean..."

"I don't mean anything."

Wilson and the Knicks have also had issues with their renewals, and it's purely a matter of money.

Bob Wolfe believes that if Ewing can make $3 million a year, so can Wilson.

Baylor retorted: "Ewing is the Finals MVP!"

Wolff choked back: "Benj is the playoff MVP!"

"Where is this honor?"

"Looking at the entire playoffs, isn't Benj the Knicks' MVP?"

The hardest part of this negotiation was that when Wolff brought up Ewing's contract, Baylor had to find an excuse to divert the conversation.

Ewing's contract seemed to be a failure at the time, but the contract lasted for ten years. Although it is still the largest contract in the league, with the increase of the salary cap, players will be paid within two years. more than Ewing.

Wilson and the team behind him make such a request.

He may not be the team leader above Ewing, but his level cannot be lower than Ewing.

Eventually, Louie got involved.

It was around that time that Jordan and the Blazers re-signed to a new eight-year, $25 million contract.

Louie took this as a basis and said, "Benj, I'd love to give you a contract about the size of Patrick, but these days are different, and our salary cap can't afford that much money. Even MJ, in order to keep The team's cap space is just signing a normal max salary for him."

Wilson didn't answer, and Wolff said on his behalf: "Benj is different from MJ, Benj is a champion and he deserves more!"

Louie joked: "So, how about 25.01 million in 8 years? At least 10,000 more than MJ."

Wilson liked the idea and said, "Deal!"

After Wilson's contract was signed, his rookie contract was automatically voided.

This is also the characteristic of the 80s, the salary cap is not perfect, so as long as the team has enough space, they can cancel the old contract with the new contract as needed. But Wilson is not bound to the Knicks for 8 years. This contract contains a jump-out clause. Every two years, he can jump out of the existing contract~www.readwn.com~ and sign a new one with the Knicks. contract.

Regarding the amount of Wilson's contract extension, the sensitive New York media will naturally not miss the opportunity to make things happen: "In 1965, Wilt Chamberlain signed the largest contract in professional basketball history - three years and $100,000. The same That summer, Bill Russell signed a new 3-year, $100,001 contract. He didn't need that $1, he needed more money than Wilt. 23 years later, Benj did the same The thing. He signed a new contract for 8 years, 25.01 million, and MJ is 8 years, 25 million. He doesn't need that $10,000, he needs more than MJ. Because he is a champion, and MJ is not ."

You can only sigh that human history in all walks of life is just repeating the old stories tirelessly. Some are heartbreaking, some are exciting, and some make you just want to eat melon seeds and watch a play.
