On the first day after the free agent market opened, the biggest news was that link renewed his contract with Grizzlies with a top salary of $93 million for five years.
Link played in the Grizzlies for four years. Normally, he is no different from the rookie who has just fulfilled his rookie contract.
Usually, a player who has just completed a rookie contract signs a top salary with the team, even if the top salary is not particularly high, it is worthy of his value.
For example, Michael Owen, the draft number one pick with link in the same year, would get a contract range of 85 million to 90 million if he extended his contract with the Cavaliers this summer, similar to that of link.
Although Owen has great potential, because he is still young, the price of 85-90 million yuan is less than 100 million yuan, which is in line with his value.
But people were surprised when Owen''s fellow rink was revealed to have signed with Grizzlies by 93 million.
People always think that link''s salary is too low, how can his contract be higher than Owen''s?
It''s not hard to explain why people feel this way. Because no player in NBA history has ever won the championship twice in the first four years of his career, and has completed the personal Grand Slam achievements of double burst, MVP, fmvp and the best defensive player!
Link, like Owen, is equivalent to a rookie who has just completed his rookie contract, but his achievements are not comparable to those who have just completed his rookie contract!
Link and Owen, even can not be compared, hard honor is too poor!
As a result, people feel that link''s salary is lower than his strength. After all, Anthony, who didn''t even enter the playoffs last season, was revealed to have won at least 120 million!
Outside, most people think grizzly is a big bargain. They left a superstar for the price of an ordinary star!
Of course, in addition to that, some people think that grizzly management is particularly brain damaged. The reason why this view appears is mainly because of the veto power and player options at the end of the contract.
"The Grizzlies'' 93 million contract is the maximum amount allowed by the rules. They don''t owe link anything. Why give him a trade veto? They can''t even get rid of him
"The Grizzlies may have forgotten how Kobe used his trade veto to torture the Lakers. This kind of despotic clause can''t be arbitrarily used. "
"KD doesn''t have a trade veto, LeBron doesn''t have a trade veto, but link does. In fact, without link, there are only five people in NBA history who have veto power. Ha ha ha ha, the Grizzlies are really pathetic. This is the sorrow of small city teams
"Player options? God, if the Grizzlies don''t work in four years, link will kick them out
"The Grizzlies are so brainless, they''re completely under link''s control!"
"A lot of overlord clauses let us see the side of link merchants."
"Grizzly bear simply renamed Memphis link."
second days, Linke found that countless fans make complaints about the Internet.
If you have been a villain for a long time, you will be blackmailed if you sign a contract.
I don''t know. I thought it was link who put a knife in Wallace''s neck and PELA''s neck and forced them to add the veto power and player options.
In this regard, link is also quite speechless. Actually, there are still people who say that Durant has no right to trade veto. Link really wants to ask the fans who said that, does Durant have two championships?
To sum up, in terms of the amount of money, those people can''t find the black spot in the contract, so they just black out the terms.
If link can sign a billion yuan contract this summer, there will surely be sunspots who will come out and say that they are not worth so much money.
To put it bluntly, the sunspots are just saying, "link is not worth so much!"
Neither link nor the Grizzlies responded positively. Because it doesn''t make sense to say anything to the sunspot.
Now, after completing the draft and renewing his contract, link has already flown with Rachel to Europe for their sweet summer vacation.
The sunspots were so dark that link couldn''t see them.
Link is relaxed now, but the Grizzlies have some other players who still roam the free agent market.
For example, the Grizzlies'' two consecutive champion player, Andre igordala.
Seeing Grizzlies win over link with 93 million in five years, the happiest is undoubtedly Steve Cole, the new coach of warriors!
After link and the Grizzlies sign the top salary contract, the Grizzlies'' salary space will not be much this season! At this time, he and the warriors can take advantage of the opportunity to "steal" igodara, who is always thinking about it!
So after the Grizzlies extended their contract with link, the warriors met igordala at the first time, and igordala agreed.
Cole is sure about this. As long as he puts the igordala puzzle on it, he believes that Golden State Warriors will usher in a new era!The two sides chose to meet in New York, and igordala appeared in front of Cole in a suit.
He was polite and didn''t play big names, which surprised Cole.
After all, igordala''s Grizzlies are not a "polite" team. He thought Iguodala would show a little bit of banditry.
At that time, Cole suddenly realized that people didn''t really know the Memphis Grizzlies.
"Nice to meet you, Andre. At the same time, congratulations on your second championship ring. " Cole also put on his kind side, trying to close the gap with igordala.
"Thank you, Steve. It''s a wonderful memory to say... I''m sorry, let''s get down to business. " Igordala found himself in the beautiful memories of winning the championship and quickly came back to his senses.
"Hahaha, there''s nothing to be sorry about. You''ve read our offer, 48 million in 4 years! I believe it shows our sincerity. " When Cole reported the figure of 48 million in four years, he was sure.
An average of 12 million a year, which is an impossible price for Grizzlies. If Grizzlies follow the bid, the salary space will be completely locked. Because the contracts of link, Gasol and Randolph alone account for $45.33 million.
45.33 million US dollars, equivalent to 71% of this year''s wage cap! After the Grizzlies renewed their contract with link, they can only use less than 40% of the remaining salary space to deal with other players. And the 40% grizzly bear can''t use all of igordala.
Igordala nodded, 4 years 4800, which is a very sincere offer for an auxiliary player. He also knows that Grizzlies can''t make such a price.
Seeing igordala nodding, Cole immediately strengthened the offensive, "in the new season, I can guarantee that Golden State Warriors will undergo great changes. We made it to the playoffs last season and we had a good foundation. After my transformation, I believe our team can be close to the championship. Stephen curry is fully grown up, and clay Thompson is worth it. We have great potential next season. If you want to win the championship, I can tell you that you can get it in Auckland too
"And I know you''ve been investing. Auckland is a better place to invest than Memphis. No offense, but compared with the bay area, the economy of Memphis is far behind! In the bay area, you can not only win the championship, but also build your own business empire
Cole came prepared. He played all his cards and waited for igordala to nod. In terms of the lines from the godfather, Cole believes that what he gives is an "offer that can''t be rejected.".
As a result, igordala did not speak for a long time. He looked at his hands as if thinking.
Finally, igordala gave a polite smile. "I''m glad you''ve taken me so seriously, but... I need to think about it."
"Of course, it''s the big thing that determines your career direction, and it should be considered carefully! I''ll wait for your reply, Andre. We need you. Auckland needs you. In the warriors, you get everything
Cole is still confident that igordala will agree in the end anyway. To think about it is just a polite way to cooperate.
But in fact, igordala said that he should think about it, which means literally www.novelhall.com , the fastest update of the webnovel!
