Basketball Myth: Super Guard

The draft was decided not to be involved, and Qin Hao was too lazy to take care of it. It doesn't matter what kind of player Stefanski chooses with two picks.

Anyway, the current team configuration is good.

However, Qin Hao couldn't rest. He was busy shooting commercials and participating in commercial activities for the next few days. In addition, there were several advertisers who wanted to ask Qin Hao to speak. They had to meet them under Martin's arrangement. You have to sign a contract, or hold a signing conference, etc...

Until the NBA draft was over, Qin Hao couldn't sit still.

However, he also paid attention to it, just wanted to know whether this draft would be different from what he remembered in his last life without his involvement.

As a result, without his involvement this time, there was no major change in the ownership of the players except for some differences in the draft.

For example, the Cavaliers still drafted Anthony Bennett.

Another example is that Antetokounmpo still went to the Bucks...

For these, Qin Hao is too lazy to think too much, such as historical inertia, butterfly effect, these kinds of propositions are really too big, if you think too much, you will only doubt life, forget it.

Anyway, he himself is the biggest bug.

In a blink of an eye, the time has entered July, and the NBA free market has opened.

Every summer when the NBA free market opens, it is always very lively, and this year it has become especially lively.

And that's because of the 76ers.

In the 2012-2013 season, after the 76ers won the championship, the threat was not only to the Eastern team, but even spread to the entire league. Any team interested in the championship is destined to be unable to bypass the 76ers, and they will be threatened. as an imaginary enemy.

And teams such as the Heat, Bulls, Spurs, Thunder, etc., almost no longer regard the 76ers as an imaginary enemy, but a real enemy, an opponent.

On this day, Qin Hao and Butler came to the team.

In the conference room, in addition to Qin Hao and Butler, there are two people's agent Martin, as well as some management personnel of the 76ers, such as Stefanski.

Because today the 76ers will sign Qin Hao and Butler and renew their contracts ahead of schedule.

Previously, Qin Hao and Butler signed a rookie contract, which was divided by the draft. The NBA has a clear salary division. The higher the draft, the higher the rookie contract.

If a player plays well enough, the team will often choose to renew the contract in advance, that is, renew the contract with the player in the third year of the 3+1 contract, otherwise in the fourth quarter, the player will become a complete free agent, so he can Leave this team for free, jump out of the contract, and choose another team.

And, according to past experience.

If a player played very well during his rookie contract time, such as being selected to the All-Star team or to the All-NBA team, then if he does not renew his contract in advance and wait until the end of his rookie contract, most of them will choose to leave, because other teams will choose to leave. He will be offered a contract that is hard to refuse.

The 76ers naturally won't let Qin Hao and Butler go.

"Haha, Qin, Jimmy." Stefanski smiled and said, "If there is no problem with the contract, let's sign it."

"Well." Butler responded and looked at Qin Hao.

Qin Hao nodded before Butler picked up the pen and signed his name on the contract. Qin Hao also picked up the pen and signed his name.

The contract is reached.

These are two "supermax contracts", but it is rare that both contracts are for 4 years, not 5 years.

Generally, in situations like Qin Hao and Butler, they will sign a 5-year maximum salary contract with the team.

Take John Wall, for example. It is reported that he will sign a five-year, $80 million contract extension with the Wizards. Although he has played well in the past two years, he has not been selected as an All-Star, and he has not been selected as an All-Star. Not selected for the best team, this is already a max contract.

And his college teammate, DeMarcus Cousins, is also said to be signing an extension with the Kings equivalent to Wall.

The Pacers' Paul George, because he was selected for the All-Ming in the 2012-13 season, and was selected to the All-Defensive 2nd team and the All-NBA 3rd team, will sign a five-year contract with the Pacers. $90 million super-max contract.

Griffin of the Clippers was selected as an All-Star for two consecutive years and activated the "Ross Clause". It is said that he has renewed his contract with the Clippers and signed a five-year, $95 million contract.

These are renewals for 5 years.

The 76ers also want to renew the contract for 5 years, and the offer to Qin Hao is 5 years and 105 million US dollars, which is well-deserved first among the 10-year rookies.

Like Griffin, Qin Hao has activated the "Ross Clause". It stands to reason that the contract renewal will be the same, but the reason why Qin Hao is a 100 million yuan contract is that it includes additional bonuses - for example, if the 76ers team next season If he can defend the title, Qin Hao will receive nearly 10 million US dollars in bonus.

In addition, Butler is given a 5-year, $95 million double-team, but similar to George's situation, part of it is restricted, which means that he can only get it if he activates the "Ross Clause" next season.

Qin Hao and Butler together, the total value of the two contracts is 200 million US dollars, and they are still on the same team, which is crazy.

The 76ers thought that Qin Hao and Butler would happily agree, but Qin Hao asked to revise the contract and change the term to 4 years.

This makes the 76ers very incomprehensible.

Everyone wants to get a multi-year contract, preferably the longer the better, because it means that whether you suffer an injury or other, you have a generous contract protection.

But Qin Hao asked for a reduction in the number of years.

This made the management of the 76ers a little worried. Is Qin Hao planning to leave? Just like James, if he feels that it is not good to play for two years, he can leave?

However, Qin Hao's attitude was very firm, and there was nothing they could do.

As for Butler, it's all Qin Hao says what he says. Who made the two of them the same agent?

In the end, the 76ers offered Qin Hao a four-year, $82 million extension, and Butler a four-year, $76 million contract.

Although the number of years is 4 years, the total amount is slightly worse than that of George and Griffin, but in terms of annual salary, it is still a "super maximum salary".

The contract renewal was reached, and Stefanski was also relieved. At least in the next few years, the team's lower limit has been guaranteed. As for the championship, it depends on a little luck.

When he left the conference room, Martin hesitated, and finally asked, "Qin, isn't it good to sign for 5 years? Or are you planning to leave again?"

Butler also looked at Qin Hao and was equally curious.

Qin Hao smiled and said, "I have no plans to leave, but 5 years is too long. Now you think 100 million in 5 years is a lot. After a few years, you will understand that 100 million in 5 years is too little."

Others don't know, but Qin Hao knows it. After a few years, let alone 100 million in 5 years, 200 million in 5 years is not uncommon.
