When link returned from Canada, it was nearly July.
He didn''t know if Nash would accept the Grizzlies'' invitation. Until link and PELA left, Nash didn''t give a clear answer.
But Nash is still hesitating, which means Grizzlies are half the way.
At least, it proved that he was really thinking about it.
Is Nash a good teacher? Can his arrival really help Grizzlies?
For link, this is an unquestionable question. That''s because Nash has played that role long ago and has been successful.
Nash has actually been a mentor since 2009.
Like Billups in Denver, he taught and guided the young people around him.
He taught Dudley how to eat and keep fit, and taught dragridge some tips like a master. No matter on and off the court, he is also a teacher and a friend, teaching his experience to his teammates without reservation.
Nash never touched sugar, processed food or fried food, and he and Grant Hill once advised each other not to eat chocolate.
Hill admitted in an interview, "I still break the rules occasionally and get caught by him, and Steve, I really haven''t seen him break the rules."
When a team has such a delicate leader from diet to training, his positive effect is immeasurable.
As a result, Nash made the Suns'' young bench the strongest ever!
So in 2009-10 season, the Suns had once been expected to dominate the west, and after the all star game, they played 23-6. In the end, they made it to the playoffs as third in the West. And compared with the first Laker in the Western Conference at that time, it was only three games short!
In the playoffs, the Suns made it to the Western Conference finals and played game 6 with the then champion Lakers in a dignified manner.
That''s the impact Steve Nash has on a team as a great mentor.
If such a positive impact is grafted onto the grizzly bear... Link believes that this grizzly bear can burst out more powerful than the sun at that time!
Back in Memphis, link continued to prepare for his wedding. At the same time, the annual summer transfer market has opened again.
In this summer''s transfer market, there are not many big name free players.
Compared with the two years before James'' free transfer to Cavaliers and Durant joining the warriors as a free agent, the influence of players who entered the free agent market, such as hofford, Rondo, rose and Howard, is not so great.
This summer, it''s not going to get in the way of madness.
Although there are no heavy players, this year, the level of money squandering of each team has risen to a new level again!
With the sharp rise of salary cap, the amount of NBA free agent signing this year has exceeded the previous recognition.
A veteran like Pau Gasol can earn $31.5 million for two years!
The Mavericks took Harrison Barnes from the warriors on a four-year contract worth 94 million.
Nicholas Batum, who scored less than 10 points per game last season, signed a super contract with the Hornets for 5 years with a total of 120 million yuan!
120 million in five years. In the past, only the top stars in the league could enjoy the price. But now, it''s on a player who''s not even an All-Star.
Of course, these are not the most exaggerated.
A few days after the opening of the free agent market, more and more astonishing transfers have emerged.
Ryan Anderson is a big man who is almost worthless except for three-point goal. The Rockets have offered him 80 million yuan in four years, with an average annual salary of 20 million yuan!
What is the concept of 20 million annual salary? Also known for its projection, Dirk Nowitzki, a top star, earned less than 20 million a year at his peak!
Of course, some would say Anderson averaged 17 points in the pelican game last season. Even if he is brush, this data is not bad.
If people have data, it''s excusable to take a big contract.
It''s hard to say that the Lakers signed mozgove and lol Deng with 64 million in four years and 72 million in four years.
Although mozgove followed the Cavaliers to the finals for two consecutive years, both the data and the actual effect on the field were quite insignificant. To put it bluntly, even without mozgove, the Cavaliers should have made it to the finals.
The Russian Center''s salary in the previous six seasons was only 24.05 million. Now, the Lakers have given him 64 million in one breath!
On the surface, Lowe Deng is a former All-Star player, and last season he averaged 12 + 6 at the heat. But lol Deng is 31 years old, and the decline is obvious.
It is obviously unreasonable to offer him a big contract worth 72 million at this time.If Ryan Anderson averaged 17 points per game and scored 20 million, it''s reasonable. The signing of mozgove and lol Deng is really confusing.
However, these two magic signing, Leng is in reality happened.
This is the state of the free agent market this year. Everyone''s worth is going up. Every team is not taking money.
Since then, there have been a lot of similar signings.
Evan Turner moved to Celtic for 70 million in four years, and bieyongbo, a pure blue collar, can join magic in four years. Dravidova, an old grizzly bear general who used to be invisible, was also favored by the bucks for 4 years with 38.5 million.
Last season, the Cavaliers gave delavidova 5 million a year, which shocked people. Now, delavidova''s value has almost doubled!
Of course, in such a big environment, the value of star players is even more exaggerated.
Derozan renewed his contract with Raptors at 139 million, Al hofford joined the green army at 113 million, Bradley bill left 128 million in the wizards, and the pistons left Drummond for 130 million.
There are hundreds of millions of Yuan contracts all over the place. It''s nothing strange at all.
Among them, the grizzly bear gave Conley the highest renewal price.
A few days after the transfer market opened, the Grizzlies announced a five-year contract extension of Conley for 140 million yuan.
This time, PELA, they didn''t let the champion puzzle go. They are very decisive, Conley is also very determined that only want to renew the Grizzlies.
Conley even ignored the offers from other teams.
Keeping Conley is the first good news for the Grizzlies this summer.
Although Gasol''s contract was renewed only last season, Conley was offered another 100 million yuan contract this season. But in the case of wage cap inflation, grizzlies still have room for operation.
As for the top salary of 93 million yuan signed by link and grizzlies in the past five years, it is not a problem in the present view.
With money in hand, the Grizzlies began to patrol the free agent market, hoping to find the kind of second place they wanted.
Originally, PELA was very fond of Eric Gordon, a rookie of 2008 who had a bad time in the pelican last season. Gordon can shoot three points, has experience, and is good at scoring. Although he is a little poor in height and arm extension, he is good at fighting, which can be said to meet the needs of Grizzlies perfectly.
But in the end, Gordon chose to join the Rockets. He thinks he can play better under D''Antoni.
Later, PELA came into contact with Courtney Lee, an experienced "excellent dragon suit". However, Li kuoyi chose New York without hesitation. There was more exposure. Most importantly, New York is building a multi giant team, and the prospect of winning the championship seems to be better.
As a result, PELA almost lost her mind and was ready to scratch Chandler Parsons'' lottery ticket.
Fortunately, he was finally persuaded by link and Chris Wallace, so that the tragedy of history did not reappear...
in the free agent market, the Grizzlies were full of bags. Small cities and the end of last season''s golden age have begun to affect the Grizzlies'' operations.
At this time, a major news burst into the free agent market.
On July 5, ESPN reporter revealed, "Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat are doomed!"
