Chapter 18: Jordan's First Dynasty
(New books for recommendation and collection)
Since officially participating in the Jazz's rookie training camp, Lin Han has become the absolute star of this training camp, especially after coming here on the first day to blow up a rookie like Evan Myers who is qualified to enter the NBA.
However, what makes Lin Han a little embarrassed is that although he is now very powerful in the Jazz rookie training camp, not many people are willing to mix with him, and these rookies worship him like a god, which also directly leads to the next period of time, many powerful rookie players in the second position leave the training camp.
According to others, after Lin Han came here, they basically didn't have a chance to get into the Jazz, and now it might as well take advantage of the fact that there was still some time before the draft held in Auburn Hills on June 3, 1993, and try it out to other teams, so for the training camps held by the NBA teams themselves, the turnover of players is very large.
Of course, because of Lin Han's arrival, the player who left naturally had Evan Myers, who provoked Lin Han on the first day and was hit hard by Lin Han, this guy was almost a hegemon-level player in the training camp before, and after such a player failed, he basically couldn't stay here anymore, so in the end, he naturally left in disgrace.
However, what comforted Lin Han a little was that although the players here were more or less repulsive to him as a 'hot' rookie, after Lin Han stayed here for three days, the team welcomed a rookie player that Lin Han was very familiar with, Lin Han's teammate in the talent camp, Aaron Williams.
The interior lineman came to the Jazz after the end of the sound's tryout, according to Aaron Williams, although the tone is now short of insiders, but he has a very clear goal, he has no chance to be selected by this team at all, just like those shooting guards who left the Jazz not long ago, there is also a person like Lin Han in Yin's training camp. Dominance's rookie, so Aaron Williams was thrilled to come here when he heard from his agent that the Jazz were now looking for quality interior players.
"Lin, you've really become the first one of us to jump up now, and now the Jazz have put all the focus on you, even Van Axel can't compare to you."
In the Jazz training camp, Aaron Williams was feeding Lin Han the ball, looking at Lin Han who threw the basketball in his hand with an almost perfect Jordan-style jumper again and again, Aaron Williams said with some emotion, speaking of which, their teammates in the talent training camp at the beginning are really the brightest future for Lin Han at present.
Of course, it is impossible to count Hardaway among them, Hardaway and the other four people are not on the same level, and in addition to Hardaway, the other four, Lin Han has now become the focus of the Jazz team, two days after coming here, Aaron Williams can obviously feel that the Jazz assistant coach Phil Johnson's work focus is on Lin Han's side, although the team's head coach Jerry Sloan rarely comes to the team, but every time he comes to the team, he only pays attention to Lin Han's situation, Others don't seem to be in the eyes of the Jazz head coach, of course, this also allows Aaron Williams to get a little bit of light, so to speak, if a qiē is normal, Lin Han doesn't even need to worry about whether he can enter the NBA, and even the Jazz may use the first-round pick to select Lin Han.
In addition to Lin Han, the other people, Van Axel is the best, the cancer point guard seems to have been favored by the Lakers' general manager Jerry West, and is being inspected by the Lakers, and as for the other interior Antonio Harvey, the same door panel interior as him is almost like him, and he seems to be unwanted everywhere, and he is still looking for team tryouts, as far as the current trend is concerned, this interior line with a similar fate to him is estimated to be difficult to be selected, after all, although there are still about 20 days before the draft, but twenty days is actually not a long time, and the time left for them is not as much as imagined.
"It's also a lot of trouble to be valued."
After Aaron Williams finished speaking with emotion, Lin Han also threw the basketball in his hand again, whether it was posture or action, this time Lin Han's jump shot was still very similar to Jordan, which made the Jazz general manager Scott Reden and assistant coach Phil Johnson, who had been observing Lin Han, extremely excited.
Lin Han came here and was indeed supported by everyone in the management of the Jazz team, whether it was the team's head coach Jerry Sloan, the team's general manager Scott Reden or the team's assistant coach Phil Johnson and other trainers of the team all paid great attention to Lin Han, and even Lin Han's first professional training plan in his career was designed for Lin Han by this group of guys for many days, so to speak, these guys really did not treat Lin Han as an outsider.
Of course, it is impossible for these guys from the Jazz to support Lin Han so much, they hope that Lin Han can stay with the Jazz and no longer plan to go to other teams for tryouts, and even these guys promise that he will be selected in this year's NBA draft, and try to use the team's round pick to select Lin Han, even if they don't use the round pick to select Lin Han in the end, the general manager of the Jazz team, Scott Rayden, also guarantees that they will definitely give Lin Han the treatment of a rookie.
What is the treatment of a rookie? Naturally, it is the so-called guaranteed contract, in the current NBA, the starting salary of the rookie at the end of a round is 6o million US dollars, so even if Lin Han did not go to other teams for trials, and the Jazz did not sign to select him, he will also get a guaranteed contract with an annual salary of 6o million from the Jazz.
For Lin Han, this is a very huge **, so, after thinking twice, Lin Han finally chose to agree to the Jazz's request, although he was not able to finally go to the Lakers to pit Jerry West, but if the Jazz can really pay such a price for him, it is also very good.
Don't think that the annual salary of 6O in the NBA is a very low number, Jordan's annual salary this year is only 4oo dollars, Pippen's annual salary is only 350,000, even if it is the two Jazz leaders, Malone's annual salary is 2.85 million, Stockton is 22O, the team's third leader Jeff Malone is 1.95 million, and the NBA's current salary cap for each team is only 140000.
Therefore, Jazz guarantees that Lin Han's annual salary will not be less than 6o, although it is not much, but it is definitely not a lot, and Jazz did not say that Lin Han really has only 6o possibility in the future, if Jazz chooses to use their No. 18 to sign Lin Han, then Lin Han's average annual salary will reach 8o.
Of course, although the Jazz gave Lin Han a very good treatment, it also brought some trouble to Lin Han, such as in recent times, many official players of the Jazz team will not come to bother Lin Han, especially some official players who are gradually losing their positions in the team, such as the team's backup guard Jane Humphries, the guard of the 84 golden generation in the playoffs this season is simply miserable, averaging only 5 points per game, and the shooting rate is more than 3o%, this former Bucks player, When I was in the Bucks, I was able to contribute an average of 15 points per game in the playoffs, with a shooting rate of more than 5o%, and I came to the Jazz last season to sign a 3-year 550,000 big contract, and then I went straight to **, you know, this guy's annual salary is ranked fourth in the team, only lower than the team's three leading players, it can be said that after the Jazz reached the Western Conference finals last year, he wanted to go further this season to poach him at a high price, but in the end he disappointed everyone.
But fortunately, although Humphries wanted to find trouble with Lin Han, after seeing Lin Han's appearance in the team match, the NBA 84 golden generation guard finally coerced and did not really make a move.
Of course, when Lin Han came down in the Jazz, the time for the NBA draft was getting closer and closer.
And this year's NBA Finals also came to an end on June 2o, although the Chicago Bulls encountered the stubborn resistance of the Suns led by Barkley, they finally killed the game with the team's backup guard John Paxson with 3.9 seconds left before the end of the game, and finally the Chicago Bulls defeated the Suns 4-2 at the home court of the Suns to successfully defend the title, and also achieved their first dynasty.
As for Ross Barkley, the new regular season MVP had an excellent list in this year's finals, but he was so unlucky that he still didn't make it to the top.
And when the NBA Finals ended, the 1993 NBA Draft officially began.
