This Forward is Not Serious

Vol 2 Chapter 333: The emergence of the 4th super team

At the end of the draft, Lin Ying and Yang Shuyi returned to China by plane.

With her own efforts, Yang Shuyi finally entered the Olympic squad. Although the last one, she is already very inspirational.

And she will also graduate from the University of Denver this year, and if nothing else, she will get her wish and embark on the path of professional basketball.

...

Soon after Lin Ying returned to China, the NBA's July free market door opened.

In the first moment of opening, Deron Williams announced that he had reached a five-year 98 million maximum salary renewal contract with the Nets.

Deron is now the value of the maximum salary in the free market, and staying in the team for the first time has already expressed his attitude.

At this time, the only super fish on the free market was Howard.

Five teams including the Heat, Celtics, Rockets, Eagles and Warriors are the most likely next homes for the "Warcraft".

Although the next move is undecided, the comments on Howard have begun to turn negative.

Because the Heat used to pay a lot of chips to get him, but now he wants to pat his **** and leave.

It is worth mentioning that, according to the new labor-management agreement, if Howard chooses to renew his contract with the Heat, he can get a five-year contract of 118 million yuan.

But if he signs with other teams directly, he can only get a four-year contract of 88 million yuan.

Except for Howard, there are not many big fish in the free market this year. Several players who have received more attention: Ray Allen, Garnett, Nash, Kidd, Hibbert, Eric Gordon, Brook Lopez , Mayo, Batum, Gerald Wallace, JaVale McGee.

In general, there are not many big fish this year, but the attention is not low.

In China, Lin Yingren is also paying attention to the Nets' actions in the free market.

The current salary structure of the Nets, the main force is basically unable to move.

And even if Deron’s official contract extension is put to the back, the Nets’ current salary space is very limited.

They can use only 3 million small middle class and basic salary.

And on the first day of the free market, they suffered a blow.

The Rockets gave Jeremy Lin a "poison contract."

This contract is a bug in the "Arenas Clause".

Why do you say that? Specifically, Jeremy Lin’s contract is 20.9 million in three years.

This contract is not big, you can understand that the Rockets value Jeremy Lin's good potential and are willing to use an annual salary contract of more than 6 million to tap him.

But the disgusting thing about this thing lies in the provisions of the Arenas clause itself.

Dan Feigen drilled a loophole in the league rules and used a six-year contract of 64 million to poach Arenas from the Warriors.

Because Arenas was a second-round pick and only played for the Warriors for two years without a Bird clause, the Warriors could not renew their contract and could only watch people being poached.

So in order to avoid this situation, the alliance introduced the Arenas clause.

There are two key points in this clause:

1. For restricted free agents with 1 or 2 years of experience, the starting salary in the first year of the invitation contract cannot exceed the full middle class exception.

2. From the third year, salaries are allowed to increase significantly, up to the maximum salary that players can get in the first year.

This seems normal. The first point is to avoid Arenas, and the second point is to protect the interests of the players.

But there is also a "third point" hidden in the new version of the labor agreement.

The new version of the labor agreement stipulates that for teams that open an invitation contract, the salary space occupied by the contract is calculated according to the average.

Going back to the contract itself, Mosaic gave Jeremy Lin a three-year contract with annual salary of RMB 3,030,14.9 million.

According to the above three points, if the Nets match, Jeremy Lin's salary in the third year is 14.9 million.

If the Rockets get Jeremy Lin, they only need to pay Jeremy Lin a contract of more than 6 million yuan each year.

This is where the term poison contract comes from.

Drill, drill the loopholes in the rules!

And the Rockets are really disgusting the Nets, because they drive 5 million. The Nets have no room to match, but he drives 3 million.

Give you a chance to match, but in fact you can't match at all.

Walkendien had already greeted the eighteenth generation of Mosaic ancestors in his heart.

But everything has pros and cons.

Can't keep Jeremy Lin, but it is a good reminder for the Nets.

In the ensuing signing, the Nets, Crowder and Scott all started directly on a three-year contract.

Full coverage for the first two years, but not coverage for the third year.

This is actually the same as a two-year contract, but it doesn't give you the opportunity to exploit contract loopholes.

And on the day that Jeremy Lin was lost, the Nets immediately received good news.

Billups contacted the Nets and expressed his willingness to join for one year [base salary]!

This wave, this wave is called sending charcoal in the snow!

Billups averaged 15+ per game last season!

Although there are certain hidden dangers of injury, the Nets have Deron, and Billups will not be smashed like in the Heat, so this hidden danger is naturally low.

And the key is the basic salary!

What more bikes!

Anthony: I feel like I have lost something!

And just after Billups decided to join the Nets, another veteran also appeared in the Nets rumors.

Iverson!

When the Nets were short of players last season, Iverson expressed his willingness to play for the Nets. He even said that he didn’t care about starting or coming off the bench when he joined the Nets. He just wanted to be with his good brother Lin Ying. Play ball.

Only last season he was injured, the Nets finally signed Jeremy Lin.

Now that his injury has healed, he made this sound again.

But because Iverson hasn't played for more than a year, this kind of voice is currently limited to the rumors stage.

Lin Ying was also very happy when she saw the news.

Iverson in history, at this stage, no longer has the strength to play in the NBA.

But now, because his appearance has produced a butterfly effect, Iverson was still in the 76ers starting lineup until he was injured last season.

So if Iverson has been training to continue playing in the NBA this past year, he still has a chance to play in the NBA.

If that's the case, it feels very good.

After all, what the Nuggets failed to do back then, now I have the opportunity to do it again in the Nets.

This is not over yet.

Barbosa also expressed his willingness to join the Nets with a basic salary!

Don't doubt, it's because of Lin Ying again!

And the difference between Barbosa and Billups and Iverson is that he is only 29 years old and still at the top!

*In history, Barbosa joined the Celtics at this year-end salary.

Walkendien was a little bit happy at this moment.

The stretches after the trade deadline last season have now become a difficult choice!

Not only the guard line, but also many players and the Nets from other positions have spread rumors.

In addition to Lin Ying, the appearance of this phenomenon is the outstanding performance of the Nets last season and the addition of Sloan.

They saw the possibility of a championship in the Nets.

Some people may ask why they don't go to those super teams?

limited spots!

A team has a maximum of 15 people, and the rookies won in this year's draft must be counted. The number of places is very limited.

What happened with the Nets is also happening with those teams now.

And when teams including the Nets were still struggling, another wave of amnesty followed.

On this day, as many as 7 players were pardoned by their respective home teams.

*The 76ers amnesty "Captain" Elton Brand; the Kings amnesty Brandon Haywood; the Timberwolves amnesty Milicic; the Wizards amnesty Andrey Bletch; the Clippers amnesty Ryan Gome S; Hornets amnesty Luis Scola; Nuggets amnesty "Big Bird" Anderson;

This makes the already lively free agency market extremely exciting.

However, according to the provisions of the amnesty clause, players in the amnesty can only be obtained by bidding, and must use the salary space to bid.

So for those supercap teams, unless no one bids, they can't sign players.

The Nets have no overcaps.

As mentioned earlier, the Nets' salary cap is limited, but Deron still had it before the official contract renewal.

It's just very few, probably only in the early years of 2 million.

You may not be able to bid successfully, but you can still participate.

Ever since, this participation is really rewarding!

They successfully bid for Elton Brand at a price of 2 million!

*In history, Brand was won by the Mavericks for $2.1 million in 2012.

This is definitely great news for the Nets.

Although Brand is no longer at his peak due to injury problems, he is accurate in the middle distance, and is also a good pick-and-roll, which is too suitable for Sloan's tactical system!

When Lin Ying saw the news, she also felt a surprise.

Everything is moving in a good direction!

The Mavericks are fully capable of bidding because of the expiration of Kidd and Terry's contract.

The reason why they did not bid for Brand is also very simple, they are bidding for Scola!

To say that among these amnesty players, the most valuable is Scola.

The Rockets rebuilt last season and Scola was sent to the Hornets.

But the Hornets have now drafted Anthony Davis and need to make room time.

They tried to trade but didn't trade, and finally took the path of amnesty.

However, Scola's own strength still exists, so the final bid price is not low.

The Mavericks finally signed Scola with a three-year 13 million contract (without guarantee in the last year).

The Twin Towers performed well last season, but there is still room for improvement in the strength of substitutes Masinmi and Wright.

In particular, Mahinmi received a four-year contract with 16 million for the Pacers. The Mavericks did not want to match, but chose to give a similar annual salary to Scola.

There is no doubt that this is an increase in strength for the Mavericks.

And Cuban also bid for Scola, said that he will definitely renew Kidd and Terry.

Taking into account the age of the two, the Mavericks can renew the contract at a low price after reinforcement.

This also means that the Mavericks will remain competitive in the free market.

When Cuban said he would do it again, it was definitely more than just empty words.

...

Miami.

Howard was blowing on the air conditioner in his villa.

Miami in July has already hit people with heat waves. Unless you go to the beach and set up a tent to blow the sea breeze, you might as well stay at home and blow on the air conditioner.

And he is not nothing to do. As a 2K enthusiastic player, he still has a lot of fun.

And there is a reason why he will be at home today.

There are guests visiting.

Halfway through the call, the phone rang, he glanced at the pause game, then got up and walked outside with the phone.

At the door, he received guests who came to visit him.

Kevin Garnett.

Like him, Garnett is a free agent.

The only difference from him is that Garnett is closely related to Pierce, Rondo and others. Although Rivers leaves, he will still stay on the team with a high probability.

So this time he came to Howard for a very clear purpose, which is to recruit.

Howard is also very polite to Garnett. After all, the opponent is a well-known super giant in the league and has won a championship.

"Paul and I are old. The future of the team is yours and Rajon. We just want to hit the championship again."

Garnett is also heart-wrenching.

Ray Allen had fallen out with them, Rivers also chose to leave, and the Celtics fell apart.

If the current momentum continues, the Celtics will rebuild at most next season.

But if Howard is willing to join, all problems will be solved.

They will once again become the favorite team to fight for the championship, and he can also launch the final charge for the championship at this stage of his career.

"I want more singles offense in the low post."

Garnett was digging his heart out, and Howard didn't hide it.

Garnett froze for a moment, but nodded anyway.

"You will get it."

He said so, but he believes that Celtic Howard's concept will change.

Rondo, him, and Pierce all pass the ball very well, and Howard will get a lot of easy scoring opportunities.

Howard was happy when he heard this.

It would be inappropriate for him to get the singles opportunity he wants and to get to a team that can make it to the championship.

"It's Miami..."

When Howard said this, his expression was slightly struggling.

Because he hasn't renewed the Heat team as originally agreed~www.readwn.com~ Heat management has put a lot of pressure on him.

Including fans' negative comments on him are also increasing.

This makes him feel very irritable.

The reputation of players is really important in the NBA.

Look at James next door. He was originally outstanding, but because of Decision One, a large number of Zhanhei has been produced.

And this kind of thing will last a lifetime.

Seeing Howard struggled, Garnett felt the same way.

He took a deep breath, got up and patted Howard on the shoulder, and said earnestly:

"Dwight, don't let loyalty hurt you!"

Howard was taken aback, looked up at Garnett for a long time, and finally nodded as if made up his mind.

His experience last season has told him that he has no future in Miami!

...

More than half of the free market, and finally at this time, the biggest fish has a result.

Howard and the Celtics signed a four-year 88 million maximum salary contract.

This is the largest contract the Celtics can offer Howard under the new collective agreement.

The reason why it's not a sign-swap is also very simple. The Heat now have the heart to kill Howard, how can they play a sign-swap with you.

At the same time, Garnett also announced a three-year renewal of the Celtics with 34 million.

With these two signings, the Celtics' starting lineup next season will be: Rondo, Bradley, Pierce, Garnett, Howard.

The new season has not yet started, but the fourth super team in the league has appeared!
