Add one, I'm not very good at fighting

Of course, everyone is not here for training, but Davidson wants to inform about the championship parade.

Because Detroit is such a small and prosperous place, and the city's security is not very good.

So the line for the championship parade is not long.

The parade is expected to start the day after tomorrow. In addition to team members and management, the governor of Michigan and the mayor of Detroit will also participate.

Everyone was very excited. Who would have thought that a team composed of a few homeless people would have a day to participate in the championship parade.

On the day of the parade, the whole city was very lively.Detroit, a lifeless city, is full of vitality because of the championship brought by the Pistons.

Li Ang stood on the top floor of the open-top double-decker bus, held up his FMVP trophy, and enjoyed the cheers of the fans below.

Without experiencing it, you will never imagine the satisfaction of having the whole city shouting your name.

This feeling of being above ten thousand people can really satisfy a man's desire to conquer.

After everyone arrived at the end of the parade, they had to give speeches one by one according to the usual practice.

Li Ang told everyone that the story of the Bad Boys Legion is not over yet.

They will definitely make persistent efforts and try to make the championship parade happen again!

Looking at the crowded streets and squares, looking at those who shouted for themselves, looking at the teammates around them.

Li Ang felt that he had never been so satisfied in his life.

Why would anyone not like chasing after victory?Isn't it good to be treated like a king?

He can't even wait for the new season to start, he wants to win again with his brothers!

Then, enjoy the cheers of the fans!

Well, earning tens of millions a year and controlling 18 points per game is indeed another cool way.

Fortunately, there was no violence in the championship parade in Detroit.

It is estimated that even the punks in Detroit are unwilling to spoil the beauty of winning the championship.

On the night of the parade, the city government invited the entire Pistons team to a celebration dinner.

Although it was a very formal dinner, Li Ang was quite happy after drinking for three rounds.

After dinner, Li Ang went to the balcony to cool off, and happened to run into Da Ben who was also coming out to breathe.

Li Ang looked at each other and smiled, and jumped on the fence of the balcony one after another.

"See? The whole city is cheering for us!"

Da Ben said, putting his arms around Li Ang's shoulders.

"We can win many more times, don't you think?"

"Of course, we can win many more times. As long as the five of us keep playing together, nothing will stop us. By the way, what are the plans for this year's vacation?"

"A vacation? I was supposed to play in the Asian Championships, but I was 'unfortunately' banned by FIBA ​​in the last Asian Games. So, I can only travel around with Carolina.

Speaking of it, I also feel that I haven't relaxed properly for a long time.When I come back from the trip, I might do a training camp and invite some interesting guys to come and train.

Honestly, I'm looking forward to the holidays this year.Maybe we can go to Disneyland to ride the roller coaster again? "

With the wind blowing, Li Ang was looking forward to the future and planning a vacation.

But a phone call after the dinner reminded Li Ang that he had missed a very important thing.

It was Bart Stern, Li Ang's loyal tool man, who called: "I don't want to bother you, Li, but don't forget, it's time for us to renew the contract with the team. The first big contract of your career, are you ready?" ?"

Not to mention that Li Ang really almost forgot that this year is his contract year, Li Ang is also extremely looking forward to the first big contract in his career.

After all, salary is not just salary, it also represents what level of player you are in the eyes of others.

It's more of a sign of respect.

Li Ang was also curious about how much respect he could gain after winning the first championship.

At the same time, Joe Dumars also had the last conversation with Davidson before renewing Li Ang.

Dumars was very disappointed, because the team owner's attitude towards Li Ang still hadn't changed.

Some problems cannot be escaped.

In the end, you still have to face it.

266: Larry Brown's Ultimate Revenge (Begging for a Monthly Ticket!)

June 6, the day of the 27 NBA Draft.

Most fans pay special attention to this draft known as the "Platinum Generation".

LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Bosh  …

These young people who were already famous all over the United States before entering the league have become the focus of the basketball world.

Even the fans of the Detroit Pistons are very concerned about this year's draft.

It stands to reason that, as the defending champion, things like the draft have nothing to do with the Pistons.

The Pistons originally had a high draft pick, but this pick was traded for Li Ang last summer.

The arrival of Li Ang gave Detroit its first championship trophy in the 21st century.

Exchanging a draft pick for a championship is a good deal no matter how you look at it.

After all, no matter how high the draft pick is, there is no guarantee that he will bring the team a championship.

Not to mention the championship, you don't even know if your high-ranking rookie can play.

Of course, except for the basketball god Danzi.

Let's put it this way, other people's draft is a gamble, and Danzi's draft is a clear card.

It's just that Danzi's draft has always followed the principle of "I don't want the best".

What are you laughing at?It is not easy to avoid the correct answer again and again!

Missed Roy and Gay in 06, Lopez, Ibaka and Batum in 09.

Missed Holiday and Gibson in 09, missed Bill and Lillard in 12, missed McCollum in 13...

As long as there are two or three of the above people, his team will not be so ridiculously bad.

Therefore, the Pistons trade a high-ranked draft pick for a championship, which is a business that only makes money but not loses.

Since the Pistons don't have a high pick this year, why do Detroit fans pay so much attention to this draft?

Because there are rumors that Li Ang may be traded during the draft!

These rumors all started a few days ago after the news that the contract renewal talks between the Pistons and Leon broke down.

Not long after the championship parade ended, when the Pistons fans were still immersed in the joy of winning the championship.

The ESPN reporter suddenly broke out that the contract renewal negotiations between the Pistons and Li Ang had reached a deadlock.

At that time, the whole of Detroit was shocked.

What, what, what is written in this newspaper?

Although everyone knew that this year was Li Ang's contract year, it was true that a player who had just won the FMVP would encounter problems in renewing his contract.

Moreover, Li Ang also said during the championship parade that the story of the bad boy army is not over yet.

What the hell, it's unfinished the next day?

Isn't this more disgusting than a web author?

Let alone the fans, even Li Ang himself didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly.

Li Ang said that the story of the Bad Boys Legion is not over yet, mainly because he always thought that there would be no accidents in the contract renewal.

From joining the Pistons to winning the championship, Li Ang never considered renewing his contract at all during this period.Our old Li has a clean heart, only the Pistons champion.

As a result, when Barter Stern and Li Ang went to sign Dumars happily, they learned that the Pistons had no intention of renewing the contract with Li Ang with a maximum salary.

Barter Stern: ? ? ?

He thought he had heard wrong.

Does Dumas, the fat man, know what he's talking about?

Barter Stern was furious at the time, because in his opinion, any offer other than the maximum salary would be extremely humiliating to Li Ang.

A 24-year-old player who just won the FMVP and is in his prime.

You tell me, he can't get the maximum salary?

Where are you going to find another player who can get from the [-]st position to the dugout with his ass?

Barter Stern's confidence in asking for a maximum salary is not groundless. After all, if an agent is blindly confident in his players, it is very likely that Schroeder will be like that. Sign a year of 8400 million things.

It is estimated that Xiao Hei wants to kill his manager.

As a well-known professional agent in the NBA, Barter Stern will never be blindly confident, and it is impossible for him to make such a low-level mistake.

He is well aware of how popular Li Ang is in the free agent market.

Among other things, as long as Barter Stern said "I broke up with him", Paxson in Cleveland would rush over and lick Li Ang.

Paxson: It doesn't matter, as long as you come to Cleveland, the child doesn't matter if it's not mine!All three will do!

Although Barter Stern didn't want to send Li Ang to a place like Cleveland, where he could drive half an hour across the city, at least it proved that Li Ang was worth the price of the maximum salary.

It is also reasonable for us to ask for a maximum salary.

Of course, Dumas actually wanted to keep Li Ang.In his opinion, Li Ang is also worth a maximum salary.

But in the end, he is just a part-time worker. If the boss doesn't pay, he doesn't count.

Davidson gave Dumars the task of renewing Li Ang at the lowest possible price.

Just like Dumars did with Billups last summer.

But Billups' situation is different from that of Leon.

Billups last summer was eager to find a place to prove himself, so he can accept how you lower the price.

As for Li Ang, he has already proved himself and is eager to be respected.

That's what Dumars told Davidson. Guess what the boss said?

The boss said: "Whether I want money or not, I want my life. You Dumas see how much my head is worth, so you chop it off and replace it with someone else!"

What can Dumas do?He said boss, I am also the general manager of the defending champion after all, I can't be inferior to the lottery team, right?Isn't this smashing our team's brand.

Davidson spread his hands: "I have money, what do I want you to do? Since you can win the championship, you have the ability to renew Li Ang's contract. Otherwise, go home and pick up the children, and don't embarrass me here."

Dumas was helpless. Although he knew this would happen a long time ago, he still had illusions in his heart. He hoped that Li Ang's performance would make Davidson change his mind.

But with Davidson's current mentality, it is really impossible for him to give a player a maximum salary for five or six years.

After all, five or six years later, he didn't even know if he was still around.

At that time, when he kicks his feet, his wife and children will sell the team, and the loser will be the colorful US knife music.

Unless the old capitalists really love it extremely, they will not casually do this kind of loss-making business.

Those who trade at a loss are still called old capitalists?

And Davidson also said that although Li Ang is an FMVP, it doesn't mean that he is a real superstar.

In his opinion, it was not Li Ang who made the Pistons win the championship, but the Pistons who let Li Ang win the championship.

As a team-type team, the Pistons are indispensable for everyone.

There is no Big Ben's defense, no Billups' unbeatable three-pointer, and no Prince's pursuit of the century.

Can Li Ang win the championship?

If Li Ang sets a precedent, in the future everyone of the five Pistons will come to him for a maximum salary, will he be able to stand it?

It's not just that Li Ang doesn't have a maximum salary, one of the five Pistons counts as one, and it's impossible for Davidson to give them a maximum salary.

To be honest, being able to win a championship, Davidson feels that he has earned it and is already very satisfied.

Two consecutive championships and a dynasty or something, Davidson is not particularly eager.
