I can't be a basketball god

Chapter 36 The money given is less!

"Gary, you really decided to go to the Los Angeles Lakers?
Well, I see! "

After getting a positive answer from Peyton, Karl Malone frowned and hung up the phone.

In this case, the Lakers will become a climate.

Payton, Kobe, O'Neal, plus the amazing Jackson, such a combination, such a lineup, if someone says that the Lakers failed to make it to the end, no one will believe it.

But, these are not the point.

The real point was that after waiting for a while, he finally found that he had no good place to go.

If it's just for playing basketball and not for the championship, he can still stay with the Jazz.

As long as he is thick-skinned enough, he is still the banner here. If he can't sign a high-paying contract with the Jazz, the Jazz is still willing to give it to him if he signs a contract that is above the middle class.

However, after Stockton retired, he had to cooperate with the team to rebuild.

The Jazz have been fighting for the championship for more than ten years, and they have become stronger by more than ten points, and their background has been exhausted.

The Jazz are not a wealthy team, and it is time to experience the pain of reincarnation.

It's okay to get together and get together.

If Malone doesn't cooperate, he's getting in everyone's way.

In the end, he would only end up with his beloved team, which he had loyal to for a generation, and cause both sides to suffer.

The Jazz were delayed.

What about him?

You can't get a good reputation, why bother?

If Karl Malone is not convinced and wants to compete for the championship, the Eastern players can be directly excluded.

If he has a strong head and joins the Eastern Conference team, it's okay if he can't make it to the finals. Once he makes it, he will become a real postman and send the championship trophy to any Western team that breaks through.

Don't ask, the question is that the Eastern Conference team structure is too small.

In the league structure where the east is weak and the west is strong, there are quite a few championship-level teams that stay in the west. There are four or five teams to choose from. The battle situation can be described as tragic.

Kings, Mavericks, Spurs, Lakers.

All four teams have the potential to break out from the West.

And this is why Karl Malone frowned.

The Kings, Princeton system is gorgeous offensively, but the defense is not very strong. It is a good place to go there.

only…

The star of the Kings is Chris Webber, who plays power forward.

The Mavericks, the star team, the inside and defense are a bit worse, but last season they only lost to the Spurs and fell in the Western Conference Finals.

And, there's Cuban, the cutest boss there, who's willing to throw money at him, and it's also worth looking forward to.

but…

Dirk Nowitzs is the head star of the team and the darling of the boss. The key is that he also plays the position of power forward.

Needless to say, the Spurs, the defending champions are already one of the most popular teams in the new season, or even none.

If they are willing to spend money.

Unfortunately, Stone Buddha Duncan was there.

hiss!
Thinking hard!
In the Western Theater, teams with the strength to compete for the championship all have an All-Star power forward in their lineup.

He, Karl Malone, has a lot of strength, but in the end he found that he couldn't squeeze in, and he didn't want to go there as a substitute.

In this way, even if you get the championship ring, there is no sense of accomplishment.

In fact, if he waits another month or two, he will find that there is another Timberwolves who can compete for the championship.

Or just, there is "Wolf King" Garnett, and there is no place for him.

The teams of the legendary "Four Power Forwards" all have the strength to compete for the NBA championship next season.

If Karl Malone was young, he wouldn't be afraid to compete with any of the four, but time goes by.

After thinking about it, Malone frowned and realized that there is only one Lakers team with the strength to compete for the championship and the team in his position.

"In the end, it turned out that the Lakers team that I rejected first was the most suitable team for me to go to!

So, I struggled so much, and I don't know why?
arrogant?

Pooh!
To the god of basketball early, Michael Jordan was beaten.

but…"

Still, Karl Malone feels like he has to wait.

Because, he felt that the Lakers were in a palace fight. In the end, Kobe and O'Neal had to fight to determine the winner before they could determine their respective positions, and then, each took his place and set sail again.

As a result, he guessed the beginning but not the end.

On July 7, he waited for Kobe's one-night affair. After being caught in the Eagle County incident, Kobe and O'Neal couldn't fight this fight.

Something happened to Kobe.

"Just in time, it's time for me to clean up the mess, and if I nod to join the Lakers now, it will definitely be seen as a savior.

Although the water of the Lakers is very deep, I believe I can swim well. "Karl Malone decided to put a mark on the Lakers' Gongdou. Facing the $150 million veteran contract thrown out by the Lakers, Karl Malone signed his name without shaking his hand.

However, the moment he wrote the pen, he didn't know that the Lakers' palace fight was not over, but had just begun.

He will also become the third protagonist of this big drama, and even steal the show with his outstanding performance, he can be the second protagonist.

……

The Dallas Mavericks have a head coach, Old Nelson, who is known as a "mad scientist". No one will feel strange about what he will do.

There are also bosses, known as crazy fan bosses.

In the 02-03 season, the Dallas Mavericks were only suppressed by the Spurs throughout the season.

The regular season was 60 wins and 20 losses, but because of the mutual record, they lost the top spot in the regular season.

In the Western Conference Finals, the Mavericks were 2 wins and 4 losses, but they still couldn't break through the palm of the Spurs.

Therefore, the angry Mavericks, after being eliminated by the Spurs, flirted with the Warriors star Antawn Jamison early on.

The old Nelson praised Jamison as a good player, and Jamison also claimed to only play for the old Nelson coach.

At this time, Antawn Jamison is at the peak of his career. Last season, he averaged 22.2 points, 7.1 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game. He has the strength of the All-Star level and is in a contract year.

Antawn Jamison's salary last season was 1007 million US dollars, the Warriors can feel bad about this money, you must know that Jamison can only get 330 million US dollars last season, which is three times worse.

The Warriors are definitely not willing to renew at a high price, which is the tradition of this team.

After using up the rookie contract, I feel that other teams' offers are too high, so I just throw it out, and no one picks it up, so the Warriors will use the right price and keep it for myself.

It doesn't matter if the strength is not strong, the key is that the price is cheap.

The Dallas Mavericks are not short of money, but their total salary last season was as high as more than 7000 million US dollars, higher than the Lakers.

If the Dallas Mavericks only brought in one Antoine, it wouldn't need to be so troublesome.

However, the Mavericks also took a fancy to Antoine Walker, the former star of the Celtics.

Fat Toutuo averaged 20 points, 7.1 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game last season, with an annual salary of $1238 million.

The Mavericks still need some time to operate if they want to eat such a contract.

Unexpectedly, the Lakers shot very quickly and grabbed the headlines. When Kobe was in trouble, he took the lead in completing the recruitment work, formed the legendary F4 combination, and became the number one enemy in the league.

The Mavericks feel relaxed, don't have to be pushed to the crater to roast, and can be upright and justifiably issue the horn of counterattack.

With Nick Van Exel and Avery Johnson as bargaining chips, the salary was balanced, and Antawn Jamison was exchanged in a sign-and-trade manner.

The Mavericks formed in an instant, and the star attack line of the Three Musketeers + Jamison fired the first shot to block the Lakers.

The Lakers and the Mavericks faced off against each other in the free market, which stirred up the 03-04 season of the NBA's free market and opened the curtain of the arms war.

……

Shoreline Center Arena.

Heat on the bench.

Ye Feng threw the newspaper back into Wade's hand, and said calmly, "What else can I read, the money is less!"

Next, Karl Malone will have a lot of roles in the Lakers' palace battle.

The appearance price of only 150 million US dollars is really the price of cabbage with conscience.

"For teaming up to win the championship!" Ye Feng paused, and glanced at the cheeky man in front of him.

I secretly said in my heart: In the future, you will win the championship in order to hold a group, but you will lose a lot of money.

It can be said that the only pity of Wade's NBA career is this sentence.

Ye Feng said lightly, "It's fun to fight for the championship for a while, and send money to the crematorium!"

"Sending money to the crematorium, isn't that mentally ill?
If it were me, I would definitely want the championship and the money. "Wade gave Ye Feng a blank look, and said a little boringly, "The money is low!That's not the point, okay?
Forget it, this topic is too far away for us.

Our identity is just a rookie who has just entered the league. The Heat have just been rebuilt, and they are far from the point of talking about the championship.

After all, we are just outsiders, just watch the excitement from the sidelines.

Instead of entangled with those top stars and the battle to carve up the NBA championship, it is better to practice well.

Plus, tackle the opponent in front of you! "

Ye Feng only agreed half of Wade's words, because the potential of the Heat team is not bad, and Riley, the head of the Heat, has accumulated a lot of good cards in his hand.

However, he still nodded, practiced his strength, and focused on solving the Bulls in front of him.

……

On the field, there are new changes.

With Ye Feng and Wade off the court to rest, Hinrich finally broke out. Now on the court, no one is his opponent.

He became omnipotent, shot inside and outside, organized assists, and organized the Bulls' offensive line in an orderly manner.

In recent years, with Jordan's departure, the Bulls have sunk for a long time, and naturally they have also selected many rookies.

Although the Bulls' rookie can't play well in the NBA, coming to the summer league can be regarded as a dimensionality reduction blow.

The Bulls came to their senses, and the offensive firepower was still quite fierce.

In particular, Matt Bonner, this year's second-round pick, hit three-pointers repeatedly, and it rained three-pointers.

Coach Spoelstra on the sidelines couldn't sit still, and decisively brought the main force back on the court, "Ye Feng, Dwyane, it's time for you two to play.

Get ready, give me a hard hit later, and get rid of the Bulls completely. "

"Leave it to us, Coach!"

Ye Feng stood up and twisted his neck.

Wade took off his coat with a murderous look on his face.

Back on the field, Wade and Ye Feng did not stay strong.

……

5 minute later.

Hinrich was replaced.

Shaking his head, he was overwhelmed.

Ye Feng and Wade didn't talk about football morality, and they bullied him together.

Matt Bonner's three-pointer was blocked, and defensively, the weakness of slow footwork was directly hit by a crit.

Paul Shelly, Roger Mason...

The fringe players of the Bulls can play with the wind. Once the situation is trapped, they can't turn the situation around, and they are suppressed without the slightest temper.

The time to beat your opponent is always in a hurry,

With the red light on the basket in the coastline center arena, the buzzer sounded on the scoreboard, and the final score was clearly fixed at 103 to 94.

The Heat beat the Bulls for their three-game winning streak in Summer League.
