I just want to lie down and win

Chapter 169 Maximum Salary Contract Renewal, Olympic medal (5000, book complete)

"I am now unilaterally announcing that the era of Huo Song will be entered next."

After the Pistons won the championship, O'Neal said this in front of the media.

"The next Huo Song will be even more terrifying, he will receive a salary of tens of millions every year, and he will have more motivation.

Just like me back then, I would be dissatisfied with a star who earned more salary than me in a season.

Whether it is in the regular season or in the playoffs, I will be more motivated to beat those players who are more expensive than me.

I will use actual actions to prove who is the most cost-effective player in the league.

I believe that after getting the maximum salary contract, Huo Song will do the same. "

"We all know that Huo Song is younger than me and has more potential than me.

Three championships in four years, what an amazing achievement.

I do this and am 30 years old.

And before Huo Song was 30 years old, he could even accomplish such a great achievement twice. "

"Tremble, Huo Song will rule the alliance next.

The star of the new era will target Huo Song and launch an impact on the championship.

But that's none of my business.I've gone downhill!
And I have already passed on to Huo Song what Hakeem Olajuwon passed on to me.

Here, I must say one more thing!
If it weren't for us, Huo Song would have achieved the feat of four championships in four years as a rookie!

Although Huo Song's first championship was won from me.

But I also sniped his three consecutive championships, let this young man know how good we old guys are! "

As an old opponent in the playoffs and finals, O'Neal is very aware of Huo Song's current strength.

The rookie entered the playoffs four times in four years and missed only 328 games in 2 regular season games.

Huo Song still has enough energy to play in the World Championships. Although his performance is mediocre, it cannot erase Huo Song's dominance in the NBA.

Besides, a rookie with three championships in four years is an unimaginably great achievement.

Huo Song's body has not completely entered the peak period, and his ability to lead the team is enough to achieve the dream that most top stars can never achieve in their lifetime.

If it is said that Huo Song won the previous two championships, he still cannot prove his ability to lead the team, but the current championship shows a lot of things.

Huo Song can really rely on his personal ability to bring the team to the league's highest level of competition, and he has the strength to defeat his opponents and win the championship and the top honor of FMVP.

Four years of playoffs, three finals wins, the only year in which he didn't make it to the finals was because the team deliberately let go of all-star players in order to save money and chose to train rookies.

This kind of thing is better than Jordan, and no magician has ever done it.

But Huo Song did it.

O'Neal is farsighted and knows who the real powerhouse of the league is.

Now O'Neill doesn't fight anymore, he has taken all the honors he deserves, and there is nothing to miss.

Anyway, after leaving the Lakers, he won the championship again.

But now that Huo Song is so strong, the Pistons are a young team.

It is basically impossible for Kobe to defeat the Pistons led by Huo Song to win the championship.

The only possibility is that Kobe took refuge in Huo Song.

As soon as he thought of Kobe's paranoid and ego personality, O'Neill knew that this was impossible.

If Kobe is willing to be someone else's younger brother and rely on others to win the championship, why run him away?

So, thinking about all this, O'Neill is very happy.

And the thought of being able to snipe Huo Song for three consecutive championships and win the championship himself makes me even happier.

Do you understand what is the gold content of the Piston Dynasty?Do you understand what it means to snipe the piston for three consecutive championships?

Who can resist the unstoppable Huo Song?

No one!Only me!
O'Neal believes that the more Huo Song dominates the league in the future, the greater the historical achievement will be. At that time, the media and fans will remember the scene of the Heat defeating the Pistons and reaching the top of the league legend at the critical moment of the Pistons' three consecutive championships.

His O'Neal's historical achievements will also rise accordingly.

Therefore, O'Neal did not hesitate to be the league's No. [-] Huo Chuan. O'Neal believes that Huo Song's career is not limited to the current three championships.

Didn't you hear?Huo Song will also play brother basketball with Wade, James and others.

O'Neal is not sure whether James is strong or not, but as a teammate of Wade, O'Neal is still very clear that Wade is very strong.

He and Wade teamed up to win the championship. When Huo Song and Wade join forces, the championship will still be within reach?
Six championships, or eleven championships?
O'Neill also doesn't know what achievements Huo Song will achieve in this era.

Will Huo Song be a new legend who has become a basketball symbol after Jordan?
It's just a matter of time to verify everything.

……

Having said that, the Pistons won the championship at home, and the celebration banquet after winning the championship has not yet begun.

Pistons owner Bill Davidson and general manager Joe Dumars led a group of team executives to block Huo Song in a conference room.

There is no other meaning, don't wait until summer, just sign the contract extension directly!
After the four-year rookie contract ends, the Pistons, as the parent team, must match the maximum salary. No one in the league can snatch Huo Song from the Pistons.

In fact, the Pistons management does not need to be so anxious to renew the contract.

However, such things as sincerity must be revealed early.

5 million in 8 years, and the bird rights will be fully filled.

Bird rights, ie Larry Bird terms, Bird rights.

Bird rights refer to a player who has played for a team for three consecutive years without being bought out or transferred as a free agent. Players who meet this condition can use bird rights.

Players with bird rights can renew their contracts when the salary of the original team exceeds the salary cap. If the player is traded, the bird rights will follow him.

A team with a player's bird rights can offer a contract with a maximum of 5 years and an annual salary increase of 8%/10.5% when renewing the contract with the player.

For teams that do not own the player's bird rights, the maximum contract is 4 years, and the salary increase is 5%/8%.

From the 80s to the 10s in this world, league stars usually stick to one person, one city, not just for loyalty, not just for not believing in evil, but also to beat other teams to win their own championship.

The key is that the dollar has not depreciated so much, and the wages of staying with the home team are the highest.

Before the salary cap surged in the 90s, the contracts of Bird rights renewal stars and non-Bird rights renewal stars were not small.

At that time, there was no traffic, existing investment, and playing in the NBA, salary was the main part of income, followed by endorsement contracts for sports brands.

With the advent of the 21st century, the development of Internet technology, and the changing times, the sources of income for NBA stars have become more and more abundant.

The more famous the star, the less he will live on the wages given by the team.

Not short of money, not subject to the economic control of the team, it is naturally all kinds of monsters, doing it rashly.

Of course, Huo Song directly renewed his contract with the Pistons for 5 years, not just for money.

Huo Song can actually continue for 4 years with 6000 million yuan, and the last year is still a player option.

It is equivalent to playing for three years, you can choose to jump out of the contract, move to the next stop, and then play brother basketball.

However, Huo Song has won three championships with the Pistons.

So, in order to win more championships, is it still necessary to play hastily for three years, and then find a place to fight again with the brothers to develop and grow?
It's not necessary at all.

Huo Song renewed his contract with the Pistons for 5 years, which invisibly injected a boost to a group of stars whose contracts were about to expire.

Do you feel exhausted?Do you feel less capable?Do you realize that you can't achieve your dream of a championship on your own?

If you want to continue dreaming and win a championship, why not choose to join the Pistons?
The Pistons had Huo Song's most peak five years. In these five years, the Pistons are entirely likely to win three championships again under Huo Song's leadership.

Facts have proved that Huo Song led the cancerous Marbury to win a championship.

Huo Song also led a group of rookies, plus a group of starters who had been doing nothing in the league for many years to win the championship.

So, what about other All-Star players who want to win the championship but have no chance to contact the championship for the time being?

Huo Song doesn't have the strength to lead them to the championship?

In O'Neill's words, Huo Song took their grandma to play together, and they could all win championships.

Huo Song renewed his contract with the Pistons for five years, which is to set up a sign in the league.

And using this signboard, Huo Song will be able to get some useful all-star helpers, as well as more fame and fortune.

In any case, these days, the noble quality of one player, one city is still praised.

Playing in the NBA is a business, but when talking about business, you also need to talk about feelings.

Jordan's comeback in the Wizards will make some fans feel sorry.

For the championship, Malone left Salt Lake City and went to Los Angeles.

If Huo Song can stick to one person, one city while Detroit is declining and dilapidated, it will be even more great.

The reason why legends are legendary is that capable people can't!

Now that Huo Song has started his career of pretending to be coercive, he naturally has to go all the way to the dark end and carry out the pretentiousness to the end.

Huo Song signed the contract resolutely, but the official contract renewal will have to wait until after July 7.

After the official contract extension between Huo Song and the Pistons was announced, James and Wade called Huo Song one after another and communicated with each other for a long time.

James and Wade were actually ready to renew their contracts as early as last year. They both chose a four-year 6000 million contract extension.

Its purpose, one is to play brother basketball, and the other is to use the bird rights to sign a bigger contract.

The rookie Bird's rights renewal has only an 8% increase, and the veteran Bird's rights have a 10.5% increase.

This means that a more sensible move is to fulfill the four-year first-round show contract, sign another four-year maximum salary contract, and jump out of the contract in the third year of the new contract, and then renew a four-year or five-year maximum salary contract , This new contract is the maximum salary contract of the largest salary contract.

Huo Song is also aware of this, but sometimes there is no need to be too shrewd.

Because of the shrewdness of James and Wade, it can set off Huo Song's loyalty to the team.

Besides, Huo Song's new contract extension is not without player options.

Of course, there is another point. Huo Song knows that the salary cap will rise sharply in 16, and there are still nine years to go.

It happens to be two contracts of 4+5.

Huo Song doesn't know if he will still be able to get a big contract in the league at that time, but if he can continue to bring the Pistons a championship, as long as the state does not decline too horribly, then he will definitely be able to taste the maximum salary contract of 5000 million.

所以，03届最划算的合同，还是4+4+5+5的合同。

In the long run, Huo Song will get more money from the team than James and others.

Huo Song renewed his contract with the Pistons for five years, and he can get the most money, and he can get the reputation of being loyal to one person, one city, why not do it?

……

Celebrating the championship and renewing the contract, Huo Song is destined to be busy this summer.

Huo Song didn't have time to go back to China, because the men's basketball team took the initiative to bring people to Detroit to train with Huo Song,
Originally, Huo Song didn't want to train, why? If he doesn't cultivate during the offseason, who will play in the regular season playoffs?Won't you be sick from overwork?
But there is no way, a lot of people from the men's basketball team, Haohao Tangtang, went to Detroit just to achieve a satisfactory result at home next year.

With the Olympics at their doorstep, who doesn't want to get a good result?
Huo Song naturally thought about it too, so this summer, he was still picked as a young man.

Huo Song not only trains hard, but also spends his own money to find trainers and coaches to help the men's basketball team change some bad habits and increase the chances of winning Olympic medals.

After doing so, as the summer passed, Huo Song in the new season would inevitably have to take a break from time to time at the beginning of the game.

The young Huo Song rarely experienced muscle soreness several times.

Although there will be in the first two years, it will not appear repeatedly.

But Xia Tian had just finished playing the finals, and he was training with a group of teammates who were not particularly high-level. Huo Song must have been tired and uncomfortable.

Lacking good rest and maintenance, Huo Song can only make adjustments in the regular season of the new season.

Fortunately, the entire Pistons team, which just won the championship, has a different spirit.

Even if the championship won the soft-handed Hamilton, he played very hard this year.

Because this year is Hamilton's contract year, Hamilton, who has three championships in hand, wants to be selected as the All-Star starter and also wants to get a big contract of 2000 million.

Basically, the Pistons will not give it. If they want to give it, they gave it last year.

But just now that Huo Song plays less and doesn't work hard, Hamilton digests some of Huo Song's ball possessions, just relying on the team's good state, to get more statistics.

So far, the Pistons can digest Huo Song's lack of this part of the ball, and that is Ellis and Hamilton.

Therefore, Hamilton played the best of his career, averaging 23.4 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists per game.

Indeed, the data of rebounds and assists is not outstanding, and one can only rely on scoring to demonstrate personal strength and value to the team.

Hamilton, who doesn't know where the next stop is, can only hope to win the expectations of other team owners and give him more money at that time.

In the end, with Hamilton's efforts, the Pistons successfully traded Hamilton at the end of December.

The Pistons traded Hamilton for Al Harrington and Kelana Azubuike from the Warriors.

Harrington was very talented in high school, but after entering the NBA, it disappeared.

However, after playing for so many years, as Harrington's body entered the peak period, his personal data increased.

Of course, not to the level of Hamilton.

In fact, the Pistons traded Hamilton for Azubuike. Azubuike was an undrafted pick, but he is young enough now.

With Harrington matching the salary, the Pistons have a future while also having a good rotation player.

As for starting Harrington as a substitute, it is not difficult.

Pistons what team?Championship team!Anyway, the salary should be as much as it should be, and Harrington has a lot of money. As a substitute for the championship team, there is nothing wrong with it.

With the arrival of new players, the Pistons' record has declined slightly.

But before the All-Star weekend came, there was already some improvement.

Huo Song can be said to have escaped from the state of frequent rotations, but Azubuike does not have the ability to start for the time being, and the quality of the Pistons' starters has declined. It is not so easy for the team to win.

Soon, the All-Star Game will arrive.

This year is another year for James to hit the All-Star MVP, but because the Celtics suddenly formed the Big Three in the East, Garnett is in good form this year.

Therefore, while the Eastern All-Star team won the game, it destroyed James' plan to win the All-Star MVP.

Garnett once again won the All-Star MVP, which also makes the Celtics this season more informative.

With the next twenty or so regular season games finished, the playoffs that the Pistons are looking forward to are also coming.

This year, the Pistons made the playoffs fifth in the East due to various reasons.

But in the playoffs, the Pistons showed the strength of the defending champion.

Playing against the Wizards in the first round took a lot of effort and swept them 4-0.

But in the second round, the Pistons played against the No. [-] Celtics in the East.

The Celtics played a bit bumpy in the first round. After all, the head coach is Rivers, and it is a weight-bearing game.

But against the Pistons in the second round, the Celtics played well from the beginning.

In the first two home games, the Celtics won by a slight advantage of about three or four points.

When Game 3 came to the Palace of Auburn Hills to play, the Celtics were still in full swing.

But in the fourth quarter of the game, Huo Song and Ellis each scored a three-pointer to tie the score.

In the last minute of the G3 game, the Pistons had the last laugh by fouling Celtics starting center Kendrick Perkins.

After winning G3, the Pistons thought the situation had begun to reverse.

But the Celtics in G4 broke out with stronger fighting spirit. Although they fell behind in the first quarter, they quickly came back in the second and third quarters.

In the last 2 minutes of the fourth quarter, the difference between the two teams was still close to 10 points. Huo Song was weak and had to wait for the next game.

The score advanced to 3 to 1, and the Pistons have been forced to the edge of a cliff.

But Huo Song knew that Rivers had already stacked the buff.

Sure enough, the Pistons won unexpectedly easily in G5 and G6.

But it was about to turn defeat into victory. When the game was won, all Celtics in G7 broke out. In the first quarter alone, Ray Allen scored three three-pointers.

Garnett's iron-blooded mid-range shot has also become quite tough.

Pierce even made several mid-range and three-point shots in the third quarter while spouting trash talk.

Although the Pistons also have a lot of experience in the playoffs, they used to play against others. Now they are in a headwind situation, but they can't play anymore.

With two consecutive 9-2 and 12-5 offensives in the third quarter, the defending champion was once again defeated by other teams.

Afterwards, the Celtics struggled to get close to the Eastern Conference finals, but once again created a miracle. First, they pushed the young Magic to a dead end 3-1, and then were chased by two points in a row, but G7 relied on all members to explode and took Howard away. Led magic.

After reaching the finals, the Celtics felt relaxed.

In the end, they defeated the Lakers led by Kobe Bryant 4-1, becoming the second team after the Heat to defeat the Pistons in the Eastern Conference semifinals and then become the season's championship team.

It was also because the Pistons lost a little depressed, Joe Dumars once again took the initiative to take the blame and apologized to the fans.

However, it is still good news for Huo Song to end the playoffs early.

There is still the Olympic Games to be played next, if he keeps playing until the finals, and then immediately returns to China to play the Olympic Games without stopping, Huo Song will probably have to go to the hospital to inhale a few cans of oxygen as soon as he gets off the plane.

……

"What is your goal for this year?"

"draw!"

"No, it should be more accurate, gold medal!" Huo Song returned to China for an interview, and boasted directly in front of the national audience.

Of course, everyone knows that gold medals are mostly unlikely.

Indeed, with the efforts of Huo Song and Yao Ming, the men's basketball team overcame all difficulties and won the bronze medal at home.

Although it wasn't the gold medal that Huo Song had said at the beginning, he got it anyway.

Ten thousand years ago, it was the top eight, but this time it won a medal.

"Huo Song, do you think you can win the gold medal in four years' time?"

"Of course, my goal has always been the gold medal!"

"But that will be four years later..."

……

The whole book is finished.
