NBA: The stars return to the peak, and the battle of the gods begins

"Welcome back, Big Dipper, I am Ed Schneider, the owner of the 76ers. You have always been the greatest player of our 76ers, and this has never changed." Holding Chamberlain's big warm hand, Schneider De finally determined that the other party is a fresh life.

"Okay, I don't like to hear these exaggerated words, let's talk about the contract directly." Chamberlain said indifferently.

For so many years in his career, Chamberlain has never been the kind of player who acts on the boss's face.

He has always done things in his own style.

Those team owners didn't care. Chamberlain was a good player who attracted money. As long as there was no trouble, the team owners let him go.

Schneider talked to Chamberlain about the salary package.

Halfway through, Schneider's forehead was dripping with sweat.

This old ghost's heart is too dark, and the lion asked for 3 million U.S. dollars.

The salary of 3 million US dollars in a single season will be a sky-high contract that is difficult to break in the history of the NBA. The previous highest annual salary was 6300 million US dollars created by Lillard.

If other stars dared to ask him for such a price, Schneider would most likely refuse it straight away, and even if he didn't refuse, he would still bargain hard.

But when Zhang Erwan raised the asking price, Schneider could only accept it.

First of all, Zhang Erwan has outstanding ability and high popularity. The 76ers really need him to join.

Moreover, the main reason why Schneider was willing to pay was not because of Chamberlain, but because of Lin Nan.

For this annual salary of 3 million yuan, Schneider did not give Zhang [-] yuan, but called Lin Nan directly.

To Zhang Erwan, who is no longer alive, money is no different from paper. Therefore, he asked Schneider to give this salary to Lin Nan, which can be regarded as Zhang Erwan's gratitude to Lin Nan.

So here comes the problem, if Schneider opens his mouth to bargain, it means that he thinks that Lin Nan's payment is not worth the price.

This, Schneider would not do this stupidly.

Lin Nan's contribution to the 76ers is far more than the price of 3 million US dollars.

In any case, Schneider's business will only make money and not lose money.

"Deal! Happy cooperation!" Schneider first shook hands with Zhang Erwan.

Then he shook hands with Lin Nan firmly.

Lin Nan didn't say a word the whole time, all he had to do was wait to collect the $3 million.

With such a large amount, Schneider couldn't afford it for a while.

He has invested a lot in team building recently, which leaves him with very little free money.

It's not a big problem. Schneider, who has a strong family, will pay Lin Nan in installments within three months.

On the eve of the war.

According to the past, the players will take their time to wait for tomorrow.

But this time they put extra effort into training.

In order to allow all teams to better adapt to the new season.

Lin Nan made an exception and gave them half a day for training.

These players naturally don't want to miss such a precious training opportunity.

The Lakers are full of fighting spirit. Tomorrow's opponent is the powerful Celtics, but no matter what, they have only one goal, to defeat the opponent with the strongest posture.

Kobe, who is very competitive, contacted Lin Nan on the phone yesterday, and asked Lin Nan to give him a small stove to return to the peak practice.

For Kobe's hard work, Lin Nan helped him.

The Celtics are challenging the Lakers away for tomorrow, studying the team's skills and tactics meticulously.

"Tomorrow I will defend O'Neill." Lord of the Rings Russell took on the most difficult task.

"Then I will defend Kareem." Garnett said lightly.

"I'm here to defend Kobe." Pierce has a lot of experience defending Kobe.

"I'm defending against a magician? Then he will definitely be defended badly by me." Before the big bird Bird took off, he would definitely make a steady attack first.

"Then who do I guard against? Worthy? This guy is as strong as a bull.

But it's okay, he shouldn't try to guard me! "Ray Allen believed in himself that he was indeed at a disadvantage in physical confrontation with Worthy, but Ray Allen was not afraid at all, he would fight back with his powerful projection.

In the Rockets training hall, after warming up with dunks, McGrady devoted himself to shooting training.

In the eyes of McGrady, who has experienced years of washing, the dunk is certainly handsome, but the stable shooting is more lethal, and it can better protect the body.

In the new season, McGrady doesn't want to sit on the bench and worry about it. He wants to stand on the court and face all opponents.

The same is true for Dayao. In order to avoid injury as much as possible, he will choose to shoot face-up to end the battle.

Of course, when the team needs to use dunks to boost morale, Dayao will stand up without fear.

All the Raptors are training in the arena next door to the Rockets. Toronto is a long way from Houston. If they make a long journey tomorrow, it will bring great fatigue to the players.

In order to meet the game in the best condition, they arrived here one day in advance.

Watching Carter and other players demonstrate their tactics vigorously, it is completely impossible to tell that they have just got off the plane for less than an hour.

It is necessary, the training time is very limited, no matter how tired they are, they still have to seize the opportunity to train well and polish the cooperation with their teammates.

From the confident faces of the Raptors players, it can be seen that they are bound to take away a victory in Houston tomorrow.

For the Chicago Bulls, a group of players sat on the sidelines panting for breath. After two hours of non-stop training, they were so tired that they almost collapsed.

However, there is still one person who has always persisted on the court, and it is the leader of Joe's gang.

"Bang bang bang" there was a powerful dribble sound.

"唰~" There was a crisp sound of entering the network.

After wiping the sweat off his forehead with his jersey, Joe continued to practice the ball tirelessly.

Rose: "Brother Jordan is too physically strong."

Pippen: "In fact, he is already very tired, but as long as he can persist, he will not rest. I can see that he really wants to win tomorrow's game."

All members of the 76ers are undergoing high-intensity training.

Zhang Erwan was also in the team. Fat Pig Barkley tried to squeeze him away with his big butt, but found that he couldn't be squeezed away at all.

The last time this happened was when Barkley played against O'Neal more than 20 years ago.

Since he couldn't squeeze, Barkley chose the turnaround jumper he has always been good at.

The shooting point is high, but
"Snapped!"

The ball was blocked by Chamberlain, who was jumping high. Judging by his calm look, it seemed that blocking the ball was effortless.

Buckley's angry face was as red as braised pork.

And Iverson and the others looked happy, and having Chamberlain as a teammate who dominated the penalty area strengthened their belief in winning the championship.

The night passed.

There is still an hour until the opening game officially starts.

At this moment, Lin Nan appeared in the home team locker room.

He wanted to see what the players would look like before the game.

It was very quiet, Kobe and the others were busy with their own business.

Put on clothes, put on sneakers, and after finishing the work, sit quietly in the seat, rest with eyes closed and wait for the arrival of the game.

It's almost the same with the Celtics, and everyone is not in the mood to talk.

The tranquility before the war probably looked like this.
