After changing careers, I ruled an era in the NBA

Chapter 286 The scumbag in Curry’s eyes

When Su Jiuyun returned to China, the Mavericks had already begun private negotiations with Iguodala.

Although the NBA clearly stipulates that teams cannot contact free agents before the free market opens.

But what team doesn't contact players privately?

Otherwise, how could there be so many signings and transactions completed within minutes of the free market opening?

If Iguodala chose to contact the Mavericks, Su Jiuyun must have used investment to seduce him.

But actually that's only part of it.

The big reason is that after Iguodala communicated with his agent, they agreed that the Mavericks' current play style and team atmosphere are suitable for Iguodala.

Although it's not a big ball market, it's still okay, and you can save 13% in state tax.

What's more important is that becoming teammates with Su Jiuyun has brought him so many benefits.

When Chairman Yao was with the Rockets, unknown teammates around him were able to get endorsement contracts from home from time to time.

The agency team believes that with Iguodala's strength and playing style, he will get more endorsements from China.

Therefore, due to several factors, Iguodala finally decided to negotiate a contract with the Mavericks.

Iguodala's previous contract was a six-year, $76 million contract with the 6ers.

In the past few seasons, he has not been able to play at the level that people want, but his level is still worth the contract.

The Mavericks were a little hesitant about the four-year, $4 million contract offered by Iguodala's team.

Among the current lineup this season, only 6 players still have contracts for next season, and the salary space they already occupy has been over 4000 million.

Logically speaking, there is still salary space for the Mavericks.

Because the salary cap from 2013 to 2014 is more than 5800 million US dollars, and the luxury tax is more than 7100 million US dollars.

But the Mavericks must consider future reinforcements in the free market and the maximum salary for Su Jiuyun next year.

However, there was not much difference in conditions between the two parties, and they finally reached a four-year, $4 million contract.

It will be announced after the free market opens.

When an elementary school student in Golden State excitedly called Iguodala to recruit, the answer he got was:

"Stephen, thank you, but I have other plans now. Sorry, I can't go to Golden State!"

Curry was still full of regret when he hung up the phone, because he really felt that if Iguodala could come to Golden State, it would be absolutely wonderful to play with him.

Not only can he wipe his own butt on the defensive end, but he can also send good passes to himself and the team on the offensive end.

However, he previously felt that Iguodala still wanted to come to Golden State to play, but why did he change his mind so quickly?

Curry thinks Iguodala is a scumbag!

After the Mavericks quickly got rid of Iguodala, they began to approach the Pistons and offered to exchange a second-round pick this year for Middleton.

In fact, the Pistons were already looking for reinforcements at this time, and they were interested in Jennings of the Bucks.

But the Bucks want Brandon Knight, which makes the Pistons hesitate. After all, as a second-year player, Knight has performed relatively well this season.

Averaged 13.3+4+3.3 per game, he is a good point guard.

It's just that his offensive firepower is not what the Pistons want.

But at this moment, the Mavericks came to the door.

This time they found a better plan.

That is, Knight can be kept and continued to be cultivated. At the same time, Mayo in the Mavericks is exactly what the Pistons need.

Although Mayo became a substitute later this season, his self-discipline and performance on the court have been recognized by many outsiders.

This season he averaged 16.1 points, 3.4 assists, and 3.5 rebounds per game.

And his shooting percentage reached 44.9%+40.7%.

Although his overall shooting percentage is average, he is accurate from three-point range. He averages 1.7 three-pointers per game, so his true shooting percentage is still good.

And he is only 25 years old, so there is still hope.

The two sides can completely sign and then trade, preventing Mayo from entering the free market. After all, this year's Mayo is definitely more popular in the free market. After all, his thorny attributes have changed a lot.

Then the Mavericks, Pistons, and Mayo made contact.

The Mavericks didn't want to make this deal because the Pistons took out Jerebko and Middleton as the subjects of the deal.

Jerebko just signed a four-year, $11 million contract with the Pistons in 4.

But Jerebko's performance this season can only be said to be average, with data of 7.7+3.8.

Finally, after communicating with Carlisle, I reluctantly accepted it.

According to Carlisle, Jerebko's advantages are his soft touch, excellent three-pointers and off-ball movement, and he does not occupy the ball.

Moreover, the Mavericks' current style of play has begun to pay attention to the three-pointer, and they attach great importance to it. The reason why they defeated the Nuggets in the playoffs was indispensable.

Although he has the shortcomings of weak ball-handling skills and not being good at assisting defense, he has a good height. At 2 meters tall, he can open up space inside and score at the basket, which can give the Mavericks an excellent offense. Supplementary firepower.

In the end, the three parties reached an agreement, and Mayo signed with the Mavericks in exchange for $2700 million over three years.

After completing the players their future leader wanted to play with, the Mavericks finally breathed a sigh of relief. Cuban also sent a text message to Su Jiuyun.

"Sue, you get to play with Iguodala Middleton next season."

Su Jiuyun had just finished participating in the event when he received the message. After reading it, he felt that the main lineup for next season was almost there.

The Mavericks' basic plan for next season has been figured out. There is no problem in the playoffs, no, there is no problem in the second round.

As for whether they can reach the Western Conference Finals or even the Finals, it depends on the rotation.

This depends on the vision and operations of Cuban and Nelson after the free market opens.

Su Jiuyun didn't want to get involved in free market operations.

Playing with Iguodala and Middleton by name, Su Jiuyun felt that this was enough.

But if he even intervenes in all transactions in the free market, then he has gone too far.

When he leads the Mavericks to better results next season and even gives people hope of hitting the championship, his voice in the team will be unprecedentedly increased.

When the time comes, it will be natural for me to intervene more in the free market.
