Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems
Chapter 365 Explosion Again
After the opening of the free market, after Li Liang led a wave, the NBA gradually fell into silence, waiting for the next wave to set off.
As Li Liangxin's home team, the Clippers fell into a rather embarrassing situation.
They somehow got the new FMVP, and then...then there was nothing and then, the people were gone!
Calling... Sorry, the number you have dialed is out of service area.
Even if I send emails, no one will reply. I heard that Li Liang has returned to China.
No way, it's just so capricious.
Theoretically speaking, Li Liang is just a player with a middle-class contract in the Clippers, which means that a press conference is over.
But in fact, facing the pie that fell from the sky, the Clippers began to think about how to eat it.
As early as May, Negro, the former Clippers coach and general manager, was no longer in the Clippers' team building plan and would not renew his contract.
After that, Chris Paul hoped that the team would get Celtics coach Doc Rivers or Kevin Garnett, otherwise he might not renew his contract.
Players without confidence and strength can only pick their teammates and coaches, while players with confidence and strength don't pick anything and wait for others to embrace them.
But the contract between Rivers and the Celtics was not over yet, and the Celtics were also waiting for Li Liang to make a decision.
After Li Liang decided to go to the Clippers, Rivers decided to terminate his contract with the Celtics and go to the Clippers without saying a word.
"It's not because of Li Liang, I just want to live in a warmer place." Rivers explained his decision in this way.
For this reason, the Clippers compensated the Celtics with a draft pick.
This is the only one in the history of the NBA. The pick changes coaches.
The Celtics immediately implemented Plan B, and they signed a new coach on July 3, Stevenson.
Rivers came to the Clippers not only as the head coach, but also as the team's deputy general manager and entered the team's management.
Paul also immediately chose to renew his contract with the Clippers, signing a five-year maximum salary of $107 million.
Paul is worthy of a contract at this price, but now the contract of any star player in the league has become a premium contract compared with Li Liang's.
For example, someone from the Los Angeles Lakers has a broken Achilles tendon and still occupies a space of 30 million US dollars. Otherwise, maybe he has the ability to match Li Liang's offer?
Of course, he has won the championship now and is enjoying the summer of the championship comfortably.
After Rivers took over the Clippers, he began to work with the management to build the team's lineup.
The arrival of Li Liang solved the problem that the Clippers have always been weak on the wing.
Therefore, veterans like Grant Hill and Lamar Odom, who basically played no role last season, have been swept out.
The NBA is still very cruel. Hill and Odom were once hot in the past, but as long as they can't make contributions to the team, they won't stay again.
By mid-July, the Clippers were brewing a deal, hoping to get JJ-Redick from the Bucks.
But before making this deal, the Clippers management decided to seek Li Liang's opinion.
Although it was designated to sign with the Clippers, this kid hasn't shown up since July 1st.
Without signing the contract in black and white, and without even a verbal commitment, the Clippers are still a little worried.
After all, the Clippers are not the Lakers, a small team, used to living a poor life, and suddenly a big star takes the initiative to vote, of course, they must be careful.
Although there is no way to contact Li Liang directly, his agent Zhu Shu has already returned to Los Angeles and started the preliminary preparations for signing the contract.
Through Zhu Shu, the Clippers management asked Li Liang's thoughts on the transaction.
The response was "I don't want to wipe the ass of two shorties."
As a result, the deal fell through, and Caron Butler and Willie Green stayed with the Clippers.
Also staying with the Clippers was Matt Barnes. Although Li Liang's middle class was ruined, he decided to stay with the Clippers and signed another basic salary.
"It's not because of Li Liang, I just feel that living in Los Angeles is a very comfortable thing." Barnes explained his choice in this way.
The Clippers basically retained the main lineup of last season, and then added an extra FMVP out of thin air, feeling that their strength has greatly increased.
The balance of power in Los Angeles is being tipped.
On July 6, more free agents landed.
Dwight Howard officially renewed his contract with the Lakers with a five-year, $120 million maximum salary.
This contract extension caused the Lakers' salary space to completely explode.
But because they won the championship, the Lakers are completely willing to spend the money.
And Kobe's Achilles tendon is recovering well. According to the doctor's diagnosis, the recovery is unexpectedly fast.
Some teams that wanted to snatch Howard had to adopt plan B because the plan fell through.
The Houston Rockets have long coveted Howard in the free market. After Howard signed with the Lakers, the Rockets chose to win Josh Smith and Al Jefferson as compensation.
Both of them signed a three-year contract with the Rockets. In this way, the Rockets have been reinforced at power forward and center.
It's just that Darryl Morey's superstar dream is about to come to an end.
On July 10, big deals began to take place in the player market.
The Nuggets, Warriors, and Jazz completed a somewhat complicated three-party transaction.
The Warriors first traded with the Jazz, sending away Richard Jefferson, Biedrins and Brandon Rush for $24 million in salary space.
The Warriors sent three players and only got Kevin Murphy. Murphy's contract for next season is only $788,000, and there is no guarantee.
Subsequently, the Warriors got Iguodala by signing first and then trading with the Nuggets. Iguodala's new contract is 48 million for four years.
After the Jazz sent Foye, they got the expiring contracts of Jefferson, Biedrins and Rush, as well as some draft picks.
The Nuggets got a $9 million trade exception from the Warriors and signed and traded for Foye.
Then, the Pelicans, Kings and Trail Blazers completed a three-way deal.
Kings send Tyreke Evans to Pelicans, Pelicans send Greivis Vasquez to Kings, center Robin Lopez to Trail Blazers, who send future picks and some cash.
Starting from the 13-14 season, the team name New Orleans Hornets will enter the history books.
New Orleans fans chose a new team name for the team, not the grilled wings, nor the grilled chicken drumsticks, but the Pelicans.
In fact, the most suitable name for them is "Jazz", but it's a pity that the Utah people are not going to give them back this name.
On July 11, it was another three-way deal involving the Thunder, Bucks and Timberwolves.
In short, the player market is still very lively. Every year, the general manager will exchange the players and draft picks in his hand.
After the change, the fans will be full of expectations for the new players and the new season.
Then in the new season, it was discovered that the newly exchanged people were not as good as the original ones. From childhood, Tiantian became Mrs. Niu, and began to look forward to the next offseason operation.
Repeatedly, until a blind cat encounters a dead mouse, it can be used for four or five years if it is replaced by the right person.
On July 15th, Wei Dazhi's account, which had been silent for a long time, sent a message.
"Bruce Lee has returned to the United States and will sign with the Clippers."
The long-awaited began to come out!
During the offseason, the famous reporter Woj almost dominated the sources of the entire free market. The only news that he could not grasp was about Li Liang.
The news about Li Liang was completely controlled by Wei Dazhi, and he didn't reveal any news.
Before Li Liang's decision, Woj and various reporters made various predictions, but none of them predicted it correctly.
Not only was the prediction not correct, but the prediction did not have a spectrum at all.
Because they couldn't catch any clues about Li Liang, they just relied on their brains.
Now Li Liang has decided to go to the Clippers, but he has no idea when he will sign the contract.
The reporters in the United States are in a hurry. Li Liang's traffic in summer is comparable to that of James.
Without such a huge source of news, these famous journalists are really restless.
A piece of news from Wei Dazhi was quickly reposted on Twitter.
This message from Wei Dazhi was sent at 9 am.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Wei Dazhi sent another message, which was a photo.
In the photo, Li Liang is wearing casual clothes, signing his name on a document contract on a desk in an office.
Next to the Clippers owner Sterling, the new head coach Rivers.
Li Liang has successfully signed the contract!
Everyone thought that the news about Li Liang had come to an end.
Unexpectedly, the matter did not end there.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Wei Dazhi sent a third message, which was as explosive as Li Liang's switch to the Clippers.
"Clippers owner Sterling decided to sell the team. It is reported that the successor is Microsoft President Steve Ballmer."
