214:Money Wars, South Coast Meeting (2nd Vote Request)
A three-year playoff journey with a total of 0 wins and 12 losses......
"Logo Male" Jerry. West said: "It's not easy to lead this team. ”
I haven't played well in the playoffs for three years, and I can't do it if I want to, and the Grizzlies owner is in a hurry.
No big star wants to come to Memphis, and no big star doesn't have a good result. The grades are not up or down, and no one wants to come to Memphis...... Vicious circle.
This won't work!
Paul. Gasol played for the Grizzlies for five years and finished with a 0-12 record in the playoffs.
Grizzlies management believes that this is basically the limit of the Spaniard's leadership as the core.
What's the point of consuming it like this?
Let's do it all over again!
So, they traded Battier for Rudy. Guy, and that's just a signal.
Next, it's Gasol's turn.
Seeing that the management was busy selling the team every day, and was busy rebuilding every day, as if it only took a year or two to rebuild, the LOGO man felt physically and mentally exhausted.
I really want to start over in another place......
Well, in one Wayne read, if the Grizzlies want to rise again, they have to wait until the young Diamond King Old Five owner buys the team and signs an undrafted pick named Link, which can be regarded as a nirvana rebirth.
But that's just, in reality, the grizzly bear will definitely rise much longer than that.
The key to whether it can rise depends on the second-round pick sent by the Trail Blazers.
Paul. When Gasol learned that he had been traded, he told Grizzlies a shocking secret that he had broken up peacefully: "My brother is better at fried chicken, better than me, you must not miss him!" ”
As for the grizzly bear believe it or not, Big Gasol can't control it.
I don't know how Xiaojia feels: "I obviously have the opportunity to go to the big ball market, but you pushed me to the big village, you are my brother!" ”
In fact, Gasol was traded to the Trail Blazers, and the most anxious person was not West, but Popovich!
"Hehe, this is a few coins in exchange for 100 yuan!" After the deal was concluded, Popovich responded in an interview with reporters.
Can the old thief not be grumpy?
In the past, there was the glorious bandit tradition of the Lakers playing "picking guards and grabbing centers".
Later, the pioneers formed the Viagra Bubble sister-in-law group, and this Nima West still leaves no way for people to live!
It's all monsters!
Popovich was really in a hurry, so anxious that he jumped to his feet.
You're playing so badly, it's not fair at all!
As soon as Wayne came to the West, Popovich thought to himself that the Trail Blazers weren't a threat anyway.
But now that Gasol has joined the Trail Blazers, the situation is different.
Although Gasol has played so far, he has won three honors in the best rookie, rookie first team and all-star bench.
Oh, last season's All-Star bench was only topped because of Xiao Si's season reimbursement for him.
In terms of honors, Gasol isn't even a serious All-Star.
But he's really strong.
The average per game is close to 20+10, the low post is skilled and rich, the height is 213, the arm span is 230, and the defense is not to mention the top, but also above the average.
He's just not as aggressive, but the defense isn't as fragile as he thinks.
As the cornerstone of the team, Gasol may be a little less interesting, but it is more than enough to play support, okay!
Can Popovich not be grumpy?
A lottery team, a team on the fringes of the playoffs, are now the beaten path.
It's not a hit.
Randolph: You're the coin, your whole family is the coin! Oops, the old man is very bad!
Well, this time, people are saying that draft picks are the main thing, and Zach is just a match.
It is estimated that the fat man who is used to breaking jars and breaking will rise in Memphis in advance after this stimulation.
I don't know why, seeing Popovich so irritable, although it's none of Wayne's business, Wayne still feels dark.
It's you who is angry!
I'll tell you, even if I can't touch you next season, my brother Yao can clean up the mess for you.
Nibbling. The combination of medicines is playing with you? Hum!
This season, it's really the Wild West.
The Lakers, Spurs, Suns, Mavericks, Nuggets, Jazz, and Trail Blazers are all quite vigorous.
Mosaic may not want to be expelled from the ranks of the "strong team", so on the third day of the opening of the free agent market, he flickered a lot of money for 58 million in 4 years.
Originally, the salary on the Bulls' side was higher than that of Mosaic, and they gave 60 million for 4 years.
As a result, Gou Lei flickered: "I'll tell you, Big Ben, Mosaic is a team with a great center tradition!" And, our coach Van Gundy, he's very good at defending and you're definitely going to shine in his hands!
We've got Tracy, we've got Battier, we've got to strengthen this summer, we're closer to winning than the Bulls!
And in the west, it can also save you from fratricidal fighting with old friends, so why not? ”
Big Ben was fooled and lame, and just got on the mosaic thief ship.
This is a terrible thing for the bull.
Although Mosaic's side is not higher than the Bulls, it is also a full 10 million more than the Pistons, and there is still a chance to win, so Big Ben naturally prefers to win the game.
At this point, the Houston media began to be crooked again.
"DPOY+ scoring champion, Mosaic is about to take off, aiming for the championship!"
How can there be fewer repertoire programs for the annual championship.
The Eastern team cried and fainted in the toilet.
This is what can be signed, and it has been signed by the western team.
However, this is just the beginning, and the war for people in the west has just begun.
The Lakers and Trail Blazers are also eyeing the defensively active '04 second-round pick Trevor. Ariza. As a result, the Lakers once again took the lead and recruited Ariza for 9.3 million in 3 years.
Paul. Alan is really angry, and he has to force me to use the ability to use money?
So after the Trail Blazers failed to sign Ariza, they immediately poached the Heat's champion James last season with a 2-year 15 million contract. Posey.
Posey has a player option at the end of the season, but even with the rest of his contract, it will only be 6.4 million a year.
Now the Trailblazers are directly 15 million for 2 years, and the average annual salary is 1 million less than that of the Heat, can this be endured?
For a puzzle player like Posey, it is enough to have a champion to be honest, or to make money!
So, he readily agreed to the invitation of the pioneers.
It's not that I don't love Miami, but they really give too much!
Posey has just been taken down, and the Lakers have used Chris. Meme and Smush. Parker, from the Warriors back to Cuckolds.
After all, the cuckold fish is a point guard who is familiar with the triangle offense, and the Zen master needs him now, and he must answer the call.
The Warriors actually didn't want to let go, but Lao Yu cried, made trouble, and hanged himself, anyway, he made a fuss, and finally forced the Warriors to make a deal.
After Fischer, the Trail Blazers shot again, first renewing the contract of white center Pulzbilla, and then, to the 36-year-old "kidney fighter" Mourning, who only received a veteran base salary of 1.1 million last season, offered a shocking 4.5 million a year!
This is probably the legendary money war......
Mourning was also confused, because he was actually still thinking about whether to continue playing next season.
After all, you've won a championship, and it's time to enjoy your retirement. But continue to earn more, and Mo Ning will not refuse.
Now that money is suddenly falling from the sky, Mo Ning said that he can't hold on to it.
"!" Pat. Riley was speechless, he had originally prepared 2.5 million a year to keep Mo Ning, and he felt that this was already very sincere.
After all, very few veterans can get a raise at this age.
Who knew that the Pacers' 4.5 million came out and completely disrupted Riley's plan.
Now you let Riley get this 2.5 million, how can you get it!
And......
You can poach a Posey, and you can dig Monin, but you can be a person!
Mourning hesitated for a while, but finally told Riley very apologetically: "I decided to go west and see how precipitous it really is." ”
Riley: Look at the hammer, you're hungry for his money!
As a result, Mo Ning joined the Trailblazers for 4.5 million, and Wayne added a sleeping dragon and phoenix chick to his side!
Brother Wei really wants to cry, why are you all going to help him.....
When he first won the championship, he said that he was a good brother for life......
In the next few days, it was basically a money-burning show for the Lakers and Trail Blazers.
After the Lakers acquired Fischer, they signed Radmanovic with the Anti-Aircraft Battery.
Not to be outdone, the Trail Blazers took down 3-and-D swingman Amy. Yuduka.
On the Trail Blazers' side, after establishing the Wayne Bubble sister-in-law combination, they are basically some high-quality role players who are not crotch-pulling defensively and do not need the ball on offense.
The Lakers and Trail Blazers' crazy plan to grab people scared the whole league trembling.
At the same time, look at the snort. The formation of the drug combination and the Wayne bubble sister-in-law combination, LeBron. James, the chosen son of the class of '03 who faced an early contract extension, has a new plan for his career plan.
When the Trail Blazers and Lakers were throwing money at the spree, LeBron. James took the lead in rallying Bosh, Wade and Cameron. Anthony, meeting on the balcony of a beach hotel in Miami.
The four of them have a good relationship in private, they eat fries and hum songs, drink watermelon juice and look at the beach, chatting about this year's transfer market.
"It's crazy, our team's two champions were poached by the Trail Blazers, it's a simple and crude doubling of the salary, it's incredible!" The new FMVP Dwyan. Wade said, shaking his head.
"Hahahaha, this is Paul. Alan, man, he never skimps on money. But Wayne joining the Trail Blazers is something I didn't expect. Their series of operations must have been premeditated for a long time.
You're going to see each other a lot next season, Cameron. James smiled and looked at Anthony.
"Hey, annoying fellow, can you not talk about him?" Anthony shrugged, and at the mention of Wayne, he was reminded of the Denver All-Star throes two years ago.
"Hehe, next season, I'm afraid the West side will be really, really strong...... "Doesn't James hurt?" He was blocked in the first round by Wayne in his playoff debut, and he was also unhappy.
In fact, he didn't just talk nonsense when he called everyone to talk this time.
It was this series of operations of the Trail Blazers and Lakers that made James decide to talk to everyone.
"This summer...... Everyone has to renew their contracts with the team early. James cut to the chase.
"yes, what are your plans?" Wade looked at James, and he knew he had a plan, one that could change the landscape of the league.
"Just sign it for five years, what else can I do." Guagua replied without thinking.
Bosh didn't speak, he vaguely felt that this meeting was not so simple.
"That's right, under normal circumstances, it is signed directly for 5 years.
But have you ever thought about the possibility if we all sign a 3+1 contract this year, with a player option for the final year......"
James said this, looking at everyone's eyes.
"If that's the case, we're going to get into the free agent market in the same year." Wade continued to echo.
"So what? We signed a five-year contract and we entered the free agent market in the same year. Anthony spread his hands, Guaga hadn't entered the play yet.
"No, no, no, I mean, if in the summer of '10, we're all still young. If none of us had won the championship by then...... Can we go to the same team and report? ”
"Bang dang!" Bosh's watermelon juice almost didn't hold it steady, and Ben Long was scared to death!
Go to the same team to report, how many stars are in their playing years?
Is this possible!?
Anthony didn't speak, but fell into deep thought.
Now I don't sign a five-year contract, but only three years, which doesn't seem very safe.
In general, the contract is negotiated by the broker.
But James directly talked about the 03rd class as a player this time, which caught everyone off guard.
"Anyway, I'll do it, you Dwayne?"
"I'm going to do the same, LeBron, and I'm going to renew a 3+1 contract as well."
After speaking, the two looked at Bosh and Angua.
"I haven't figured it out yet." Bosh was stupefied.
"Me too, I have to think about it." Angua scratched his head, he felt that it was unrealistic.
"Well, I think that's our chance to rule the league in '03. Everyone, think about it! ”
James lifted the watermelon juice and looked at the beach in Miami, squinting his eyes.
Three years from now, that summer will definitely be even crazier than this year......
