Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 1016 [Strike for the championship, the worst star]

In addition to making big deals and renewing the contract of Warcraft Howard, the Nets also signed a two-year contract with Kirilenko using a mini-middle-class contract. The first year of the contract is US$3.18 million, and the second year is a player option.

Last season, Kirilenko signed a two-year, 20 million contract with the Timberwolves, averaging 12.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1 block per game. He unexpectedly jumped out of his contract in the summer and took a significant salary cut to join the Nets. Many people suspected that he was operating behind the scenes.

The cooperation between Nets owner Prokhorov and Kirilenko started a long time ago. When Kirilenko was only 17 years old, he joined CSKA. It was Prokhorov who owned that team. husband. Three years later, he left the team and joined the NBA, going to the Jazz.

Prokhorov certainly did not admit that there was insider trading: What can I say? That is the symbol of Russia in the world. If we were not Russians, no one would doubt this. It is like a veteran giving up a high salary to join a team A team that has a chance to win the title, it's not something special, it happens every summer and everyone is satisfied.

If anyone wants to check our account, you are welcome to do so. Brooklyn has nothing to hide, and we all work under the legal process. The doubts around me don't worry me, I know everything is done Right. Now I just want Andrei to be the first Russian to win an NBA championship. This is the best publicity for our country in the United States.

However, no fans regard the Nets as the favorites to win the championship, and it feels like there will be problems next season.

The boss's words are obviously illogical. Why does Kirilenko believe that the Nets, which won 41 games last season, have a chance to win the championship?

Some players did not believe that the Nets could win the championship, so substitute big man Andre Blatche chose to leave and joined the Warriors at a low salary of 2.9 million in two years.

Greg Monroe's rookie contract expires in one year, and the Warriors will have a strong interior lineup next season. When the Warriors bid for Scola, they signed a three-year, 13 million contract with him. They also selected center Rudy Gobert in the draft.

The Warriors also had people leaving, and Magic Bird Carl Landry jumped out of his contract to test the free market. During the interview, The Divine Bird was full of confidence in his future, and he believed that he could get a better contract.

Landry, 29, has one year left on his current contract and will make $4 million next season. Considering his age, he is eager to get a longer contract.

Soon, Landry received a satisfactory offer and signed with the Kings for 26 million in four years. The Kings' Elton Brand's contract has expired, leaving more than 20 million in salary space, and they urgently need to strengthen the No. 4 position.

Luol Deng chose to opt out of his contract.

Testing the free market, he is 28 years old and can still sign a high-paying long-term contract. Last season, he was selected to the All-Defensive Team and reached the Western Conference Finals with the team, which increased his value.

The two sides did not agree on a contract extension, and Luol Deng joined the Bulls for 54 million in four years. The Bulls are willing to pay high salaries because their wing strength is very poor and they need Luol Deng to strengthen the lineup.

The Warriors spent 48 million in four years to dig up Nuggets swingman Andre Iguodala and quickly found a replacement. Iguodala has also been selected to the best defensive team. His physical fitness is better than Luol Deng, but his record last season was poor.

The Warriors signed combo guard Shaun Livingston on the outside with a one-year minimum salary. He has serious injury risks and is very capable. As long as he can stay healthy and play, the Warriors will make a lot of money.

They also signed CJ Watson, a 188CM point guard who is good at catching and shooting, for two years at a low salary. Watson once played for the Warriors. He chose to leave after the team drafted Curry. Now he has returned to compete for the championship. to here.

After wandering for many years, Watson lost his ambition. He realized that he could only play as a substitute because of his strength.

Fisher also took the initiative to contact the Warriors and wanted to join with a minimum salary, but the Warriors manager refused because the guy was too slow and had a bad character.

The Warriors signed swingman Nick Young for $1.23 million in one year and defensive star small forward DeMarre Carroll for $5 million in two years, completely making up for the vacancy left by Luol Deng's departure.

Because of Guo Xu's evaluation, many free agents chose the Warriors. They put together a lineup that can combine internal and external play without any effort. They will compete for the championship next season.

The management also gave up on Jordan Farmar, DeShawn Stevenson, Johan Petro and others, and let go of all the people who were traded with the Nets, freeing up salary space. Currently, there are only three Warriors with annual salaries exceeding tens of millions.

The Knicks lineup has not changed much. It is difficult to compete with the Warriors with the original lineup. They also left Nate Robinson, who joined the Nuggets for $4.03 million in 2 years.

Robinson's statistics were not bad last season, and he was more reliable than Darren Collison at critical moments. However, due to his shortcomings in height, no team was willing to offer him a high salary. The Nuggets were the most sincere.

The lineup of the Western Lakers has also weakened. Monta Ellis joined the Mavericks with a three-year, 25 million poison contract. Joe Johnson's condition has declined significantly, Bogut has turned into a glass man, and the Lakers are almost finished next season.

The worst star is LeBron James.

The big contracts of Mo Williams and Varejao have arrived, and the Cavaliers have freed up salary space. James is recruiting helpers everywhere, but no one is willing to come, even Chris Paul, who has the strongest relationship with him.

Giving up the big market of Los Angeles to join a team in Cleveland, what kind of international joke are you kidding? Paul happily chose to stay on the team.

David West chose to stay with the Pacers, Al Jefferson joined the Bobcats for 41 million in three years, and even players of Landry's level looked down on the Cavaliers.

Seeing that the only big names in the free market are Josh Smith and Brandon Jennings, James' head is getting bigger and his hair is almost falling out. The Cavaliers don't like these two people. Josh and James have overlapping positions, and Jennings is a blacksmith.

The Cavaliers also wanted to poach the Jazz's restricted free agent, point guard Jeff Teague. After offering a big contract, the Jazz chose to match it and were unwilling to let go of the starting point guard.

Fortunately, he was not poached. Teague was nicknamed the Dynamic Mamba by Chinese fans because of his frequent stagnant dribbling. How could a player with this style of play partner with James? James only needs one kind of outside partner, and that is mainly running and shooting three-pointers. Of course it is better to be the second offensive point with the ball, and the ball must be released quickly.

The Cavaliers' inside line is even more troublesome. If Al Jefferson doesn't come, and if Varejao doesn't renew his contract, they won't even have a reliable center. Re-signing Varejao may be a big pitfall, as he may be injured and unable to play at any time.

Varejao doesn't want to renew his contract with the Cavaliers. He feels that his frequent injuries are due to the bad feng shui here. Anyway, he won the championship when he was in the Suns, and he will go to whichever team pays him more.

As a result, Varejao was poached by the Celtics, a team that had money but nowhere to spend it. After Jeff Green was reimbursed for a heart attack, the Greens were seriously short of people inside. Big-name free agents were unwilling to join because manager Ainge had already His character has been ruined.

The Cavaliers paid 11 million in three years to dig up 208CM inside man Marice Speights, who has poor defense and long-range shooting. Signed Zaza Pachulia for 15 million in three years, a slow-moving meat shield center.

The outside Cavaliers signed Dellavedova, who was undrafted in the NBA, for 1.3 million in two years.

Then in July, no more players considered joining the Cavaliers, and Carlos Boozer had two years left on his contract and was not traded. James wants to play brother basketball, but he doesn't know which team has a suitable brother for him.

James was already very dissatisfied with the Cavaliers management. He sadly discovered that even if Guo Xu retired early, he would not be able to dominate the league.
