While the draft is going on, the trade is also going on at the same time, because at this time the rookie has not signed the contract, and what is being traded is only the draft pick. If he signs the contract, he cannot be traded within at least 30 days, so the deal involving the rookie must Do it ASAP.

The biggest deal is that the Seattle Supersonics, which has decided to rebuild, sent the team's boss Ray Allen to the Boston Celtics, while the Supersonics got Delonti West, Szczerbiak And this year's fifth pick, Jeff Green.

The New York Knicks and the Portland Trail Blazers made a deal. The Trail Blazers traded Randolph for Francis and Channing Frye. Can make a certain contribution to the team, so the Knicks took Channing Frye.

After these transactions occurred, the Spurs gave Stephen a one-year contract of 120 million, so that Stephen officially became a restricted free agent. The Spurs secretly offered Stephen a four-year contract. Thirty-nine million a year, this is the largest number Stephen can get.

With the expiration of the contracts of Eric Williams, Matt Bonner, Jacque Vaughn, and Stephen, plus Michael Finley, he has notified the team that he will jump out of the existing contract and seek a long-term contract. In this way, the Spurs can reduce their salary below the salary cap, and then they can offer Stephen a maximum salary contract.

However, Stephen has rejected this contract and decided to test the free agent market, and Stephen has also been promoted to the biggest restricted free agent of this offseason. After becoming a free agent, Stephen can also approach other teams. Then other teams offer contracts, and the Spurs choose whether to match.

However, this contract is not issued rashly. Generally, the team will issue the contract after reaching a verbal agreement with the player. At the same time, if the Spurs match this contract, then Stephen will still be a player of the Spurs. Stephen cannot be traded within three months.

And if it is necessary to achieve a sign-and-change, the intended team cannot propose a contract, because if it is proposed and then withdrawn, it will lose the qualification to sign-and-change, and a team cannot resell the contracts of other teams just signed. Free agents, but free agents of the team (including restricted free agents) can be traded. At the same time, this player cannot use special clauses such as middle class exceptions, injury exceptions, and biennial exceptions.

The signing and trading of signing first and then changing are integrated. If there is no transaction within 48 hours after signing, it means that the team does not want to trade the player out, and the signing is automatically cancelled. So once the signing is reached, it is irreversible.

Since the league is still calculating the relevant income of last season, Stephen's contract cannot be confirmed before the salary cap comes out. According to the provisions of the Arenas clause, Stephen can only sign a four-year contract at most, and this four-year A contract is made up of two parts.

The first part is the first two years. After the salary cap comes out, the middle-class special case of this season is drawn. Last season was 500 million US dollars. This season should be more than 500 million US dollars. This is what Stephen can get in the first year. Salary, the second year is the first year's salary plus an [-]% increase.

The second part is the next two years. After the salary cap comes out, players with less than six years of service can get a maximum salary contract of 20.00% of the salary cap, while players with seven to nine years of service can get 30.00% or more of the salary cap. Last season's salary is 30.00% (whichever is greater), and those with more than ten years can get [-]% of the salary cap or [-]% of last season's salary (whichever is greater).

Although it will take two years for Stephen to get the maximum salary, it is determined according to the salary cap of this season. If calculated according to the increase in recent years, it should be around 300 million US dollars. This is the third year. In the fourth year, the salary of the previous year was increased by [-]%.

Calculated in this way, Stephen can get a salary of nearly 4000 million U.S. dollars in four years. Although it is not too high, it is because he only has two years of service. If he signs another two-year contract, after the contract is completed, he You can sign a six-year long-term contract with the home team or a five-year long-term contract with other teams, and the starting salary is much greater than the maximum salary determined based on the salary cap for this season.

However, Stephen needs to work hard for at least another two years. This market situation is based on needs. It is hard to say what will happen after two years. bear the cost of the decline.

Before the salary cap comes out, no one can offer a specific contract for Stephen, but this does not mean that they cannot contact Stephen in advance. After Stephen became a restricted free agent, both Stephen and Mordance received a lot. Telephone or fax.

Stephen didn't receive too many people, only Coupard, Gerald Wallace, Yao Ming, and Muhammad, but Mordance was busy all night, and half of the teams in the league were either general managers or general managers. The director of player affairs called Mordance.

Some teams don't have much thought for Stephen, but it's never wrong to communicate, and Mordance also told them that his clients have not restricted the target team, if they want to win, they have to start Come and negotiate with us.

For a four-year contract of less than 4000 million, many teams can offer it. Even if they can’t, as long as the Spurs can open it, they can discuss with the Spurs about signing first and then changing it. According to the performance of the Spurs and Stephen after winning the championship , The Spurs should not have left Stephen's will to win.

If the traded player is unwilling to play for the new team after the trade occurs, the league president can impose a suspension or financial penalty on the player. This is the Alonzo Mourning clause. If the player still does not want to play for the team , the player must apply for retirement.

After retiring, unless the contract period he signed has passed, he is not allowed to play for other teams. As long as the Spurs do not force Stephen to stay, the opportunities are equal for other teams. After this news, all the teams stepped up their pursuit of Stephen.

The first one to come here is Coppard who has already gone to San Antonio. He is also entrusted by the team's head coach Mike Dunleavy. He originally wanted to celebrate the championship with Stephen, but he didn't expect the head coach to call him again. .

However, he is obviously not qualified as a lobbyist. He just didn’t advocate Stephen going to the Clippers. The boss is too stingy. He is simply the most stingy boss in the league. He has only played four times in the 25 years he has owned the Clippers. In the playoffs, the total winning percentage is in the early [-]s, and there are eight seasons in which the number of losses reached [-] games in a single season, occupying the bottom one position in the salary expenditure rankings all the year round.

It’s fine for him to suffer here, but he absolutely can’t bear the suffering of his boss here. Such an unprogressive team doesn’t deserve to have a player of the boss’s level. He said: "Are you afraid that after I come here, I will watch you every day and let you train?"

Coppard didn’t say a word, and after blinking his eyes twice, Coppard said to Stephen with a smile on his face: “How come, boss, I miss you so much, I have been longing to be like before. Follow you like that, work hard under your guidance and education, and don't waste your time."

"Then I come to the Los Angeles Clippers, or I can go to the Los Angeles Lakers, so that you can still follow me, or after I go to that team, you ask the team to trade and go to the same team as me. The team looks at you every day, what do you think?" Stephen didn't care about his rhetoric at all, and Coppard, despite his simple and honest face, was actually extremely cunning.

Why doesn't Stephen know what Coppard thinks? He is very comfortable in the Clippers. Such an unprogressive team is very suitable for a player like him who dawdles, with a salary of several million, and then every game One, two, 10 minutes, such a life is not to mention how comfortable it is. Coupard has no pursuits. For him, such a life is enough. He doesn't want to earn too much. There is no lesson for Stephen. He, but his nature is like this, and it is useless to teach him a lesson.

"Okay, boss, you go to the Lakers, only this kind of team is worthy of you, the Clippers are not suitable for you." Coupard smiled on his face, and then persuaded Stephen to go to the Lakers, as if he The same salary as the Lakers.

Stephen's appearance in Los Angeles is indeed doubtful, because many players prefer their hometown team when they choose a team. Although Los Angeles is not Stephen's hometown, it is the team where he played in his college career. Los Angeles is a world-class well-known team. The city is bustling and prosperous, and his agency is also located here. It would be normal for Stephen to choose this place.

However, some people would think that Stephen appeared here. In addition to his home, the brokerage company is also here, so it is not surprising that he appeared here. It does not necessarily mean that he chose the Clippers or the Lakers. After De's lobbying failed, McDunleavy called Stephen himself and introduced the current situation of the Clippers to Stephen. He said that the team is very short of a core outside player. If Stephen chooses the Clippers, he will definitely be around Stephen. Create a tactical system.

Stephen politely said that he would think about it, and then hung up the phone. Teams like the Clippers will never be considered by Stephen, and they are not aggressive. Even if they can be the team leader here and have unlimited shooting rights, then What's the matter, Stephen doesn't only have such a little pursuit. In addition to personal achievements, he also wants the honor of the team.
