Chapter 1387 I Chose a Difficult Path
Durant went to ...... Warriors ??? Is this really fake? Crazy??? Didn't you say you wanted to stay in Oklahoma before? What's the situation? That's a team with 73 wins! Anyway, Europe and the United States were blown up, and Durant also issued a personal statement: I chose a difficult path.
Yes, yes, you read it right, you really read it right, Durant's original words are, I ~ choose ~ choose ~ one ~ one ~ difficult ~ difficult ~ road ...... Tough? I'm hard on your sister! Do you play like this? It's still difficult, what are other people doing? Is it all in hell? I'll it! This also ...... It's too shameless, right?
I really want to invite Prime Minister Zhuge to come out...... I've never seen anyone so brazen.
Tang Qian didn't know that if it weren't for his butterfly effect, Durant would have to bear the brand of defecting to the enemy by doing this, which is even more amazing. For a while, there was no need for Tang Qian to say anything, the Internet had exploded.
The hardest part of the road I've ever traveled is Adu's routine.
It's like saying to the old horse and the pony, hey, give me all your shares, this is the hardest road on my road to richness.
Durant's subsequent press conference brought a dry firewood, which burned more and more, adding fuel to the fire.
We all live in superhero fantasies, and whether you want to be a villain or a hero, it depends on the final outcome.
……
I haven't changed, I've just changed cities to fight.
……
My decision depends on where I am. It can be hard for the fans in Goose City, but I don't have many days left in basketball, and I just want to enjoy every day now.
……
Joining the Warriors was the best decision for me, and I can't control what other people think, but I can control myself.
……
Okay okay, I've decided, I'm going to call my cousin in Goose City, who has been a big supporter of Durant.
I can't argue with you either, but I'll keep spraying you, spraying you all year!
Durant, you little, you said you'd stay!
They just said that 90% of them would stay, and now it seems that he chose that 10%.
Didn't plant! It's disappointing for you to do that! Black for the rest of your life!
……
Of course, there are also Durant fans who come out to defend it, and the most classic is that basketball is just a job.
Yes, there is nothing inherently wrong with basketball being just a job, but basketball is also a competitive sport, and there are other meanings in it, and doing so is similar to the previous loyalty uselessness theory of James transferring to the Heat. But no matter what, it can't stop the outside world from talking about Durant, and all of a sudden Durant attracted James' firepower and became the first black person in the United States.
And Adu went to the Warriors like a completely different person, and he didn't carry his schoolbag anymore, so he just let it go and spared James, saying: LeBron paved the way for me to join the Warriors!
When James saw this, his heart was like your mother's skin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And it was discovered that Durant began to drive a trumpet like crazy and exchanged scolding with fans on the Internet...... Is this still the character of Du Schoolbag? Well, in fact, there is nothing to be surprised about, in the future Durant himself will say, what you see now is the real me, when I was with the Thunder, I was a hypocrite, and I lived with a mask in Goose City. This ultimate slap in the face will make all his supporters unable to find anything to argue.
Durant was graffitied near the Thunder's house:
Be yourself~ Hypocrite!!
This incident caused a huge repercussion in the United States, and suddenly the Warriors were once again the favorites to win the championship next season, even the Lakers are not as good as them now. You know, the Lakers ended last season with a 16-0 loss. This shows how big the impact of this news is.
Durant + Curry??? It's unthinkable!
The Warriors are down to the next level with five deaths!
4 All-Star Players, 2 Scoring Champions of the Year, 4-Star Warriors, Upgrade Completed!
Cole also said with a smile in an interview that he was still very depressed, but now he has nothing at all. Can't wait to kick the ass of all the teams in the league.
Warriors fans are also close to madness, and directly hit the words 81-0 in the new season! It can be seen that the expansion of its mentality!
Others say that this season's NBA is already an early finale, and there is nothing to watch.
Of course, Tang Qian will inevitably be interviewed, and he directly stated: I hope that when Durant takes the most difficult road, remember to wear shoes.
When asked about his expectations for next season, Tang Qian still said one sentence, Lakers, championship!!
Seeing Tang Qianqian speak like this in an interview with the media, the young people of these national teams once again felt the momentum from the "first person in the world". Durant has joined the 73-win team, and he dares to say it so justifiably? It's fierce!
Not only that, but the Thunder also had other blood changes, they actually sent away Ibaka, and exchanged Oladipo, Sabonis Jr. and Ilyasova from the Magic. This is equivalent to the original team of the Thunder team, which is basically dispersed. The Oklahoma City Thunder, the Western powerhouse that has been strong for many years, has been beaten into a dog in one season.
I feel distressed for more than ten seconds.
But now that the Thunder fans can accept everything, and Durant is gone, what else can't be accepted?
The Bucks also formed a very eye-catching lineup and engaged in a so-called "Death Five". Why is it called the "Big Five"? Because they have 5 players with starting strength, all of whom are around 6'11 tall, and the shortest is 6'9. Wait, what kind of death is this? The key is the reach of these five of them...... All of them are over 7 feet!!
It's all Spider-Man.
Goodbye, Death Five, Hello, Death Five.
Then Howard also left the Clippers because the Clippers clearly didn't have "enough respect" for him. Howard jumped out of his $23 million contract for a bigger one. He believes he is still a player who can easily get a maximum salary. Of course, his age is indeed not very old, and he should still be in his prime, but the Clippers only gave him an estimate of 10 million to 15 million, Howard was furious, and then asked the Atlanta Hawks to take over. 3 years 70.5 million signed with Eagles. From this point of view, in fact, there is no maximum salary, and it is only about 23.5 million a year. Highest salary, seriously...... Now it is impossible for him to get it, and his decline is known to everyone, and everyone can see it. Then someone "mocked" him under Howard's tweet and said: Brother, you took 8 million less. This is a mockery that Howard did not get the maximum salary and will not get it in the future.
Someone else left a message saying that he was only 6 million more expensive than Mozgov, o~Warcraft wow~
Howard himself said, "I'm happy to play in Atlanta. Well, well, I wish you a happy day.
And then it's 30 times the big white side crazy circle money! Stayed with the Heat for 4 years and 98 million! This grassroots legend is confirmed! Da Baibian himself is also a little unhappy. At least at this stage, he is worth this price, and in the future, who can say for sure.
Rivers Jr. signed with the Clippers for 3 years and 35.7 million, well, this is my son, everyone take care of it, Rivers said.
Team Rocket actually ...... Signed D'Antoni??? Then signed Ryan with 4 years and 80 million. Anderson.
Jeremy Lin signed with the Nets for 3 years and 36 million, and seriously, this is nothing in this era of contract explosion. It's even a relatively cheap contract. Then the Rockets renewed Harden's contract, no, it should be said that he re-signed the contract, according to the latest collective bargaining agreement, as long as the contract of more than 4 years has been carried out for 3 years, the contract can be re-signed with the team, but it needs to be agreed by both parties. Harden directly got a total of 118 million. But what's even worse is still to come, Conley of the Grizzlies actually got 153 million for 5 years!!! Yes, it's just a Conley! So, it was officially announced that the NBA had entered the era of the "contract explosion". The previous level of contract is now completely voided. Right now, it's a very ordinary role player who can get more than 10 million US dollars. Not an exaggeration at all.
Do you know what the official NBA salary cap is announced this season? That's 94.14 million US dollars! More than 24 million US dollars from last year! And how long did it take for the NBA's last salary cap increase to exceed 24 million? The answer is 10 years! It took a whole decade to reach this increase, so this year's increase is terrifying! The poor ghost line has reached 84.73 million US dollars! That's a lot higher than last year's salary cap, which is hard to imagine. And this season's luxury line is more than 100 million US dollars, as high as 113.29 million US dollars, my God, with this luxury tax, the Lakers are not far from it.
And when Tang Qian was looking forward to the operation of the Lakers, a big stuffy stick came first.
First up is Nick. Yang broke up with his wife-to-be because of messing around, which caused a lot of discussion in the outside world, so forget it, and then, the Lakers made an official announcement a few days later...... All-Star Bosh is going to end his career because of an injury. And his contract will also be bought out by the team. No longer counts towards the payroll cap. And most of this money is lost by insurance companies.
The Lakers' team losses weren't as big as they thought.
Tang Qian and Bosh talked on the phone, Bosh was obviously frustrated, but ...... There seems to be no way, and the league won't let him continue playing. He could only use alcohol to kill his sorrows, and he was depressed. For this, Tang Qian didn't know what to say. can only say that the world is impermanent, after all, I had agreed with Bosh before that I wanted to win the championship together, and this happened as a result. Injuries are always the number one killer of athletes. However, Bosh still mixed a ring with the Lakers, although the ring didn't have much weight for himself. Even, his name is not engraved.
It belongs to a second-level ring, similar to Sun Dasheng, Bartle's kind, you say that you are dizzy or not, with Bosh's heart, it is estimated that you will be depressed for a long time when you look at this ring. He doesn't hold it as precious as the former. This kind of ring is useless to him.
But because of the emptiness of Bosh's contract, the Lakers suddenly have more space to use.
It's just that there aren't many people who can sign a contract.
Wade fell out with Riley because of the knife, and then chose ...... Joined the Cavaliers of Brothers Basketball???
All of a sudden, it became him hugging his thighs, what a ...... Half in the bag!
Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't stay with the Heat, but there is no need to go to the Cavaliers, what's the situation, the Lakers also quoted him, but Wade didn't bother at all. I'm going to go to my good brother's territory. Well, you're awesome.
For career planning, Wade is simply rotten to a degree. I really don't know if it's his agent's problem or if he really values "brotherhood" so much.
Well, good luck, The Flash.
The New York Knicks sent Lopez and Grant got Derrick. Ross! For a while, the Big Apple City was also talking about its own melon + rose. It looks like the future is promising. The Bulls eventually ran out of patience and sent away the MVP players they had spent a lot of money on to develop. It's a pity, it's a pity. But that's the NBA. That's the reality.
Then there is Nowitzki's contract renewal for the Mavericks, it looks like he should also be one person and one city, which can only be said to be admirable, great.
Someone has calculated that in order for the Mavericks to win the championship, they have given up a total salary of about nearly 80 million US dollars so far, all of which are salary cuts. It's really amazing, but admiration is admiration, Tang Qian is not ready to do this. Cuban also said that he will raise Dirk after he retires, although it is a joke, but he will definitely not refuse to introduce a team job, and it is estimated that in the future, if Nowitzki is willing, he will enter the management of the Mavericks.
Uh, Wade's thing isn't over yet, and he actually chose the Bulls in the end? What's the situation? Because the contract can't be negotiated?
Well, it's okay if you don't go to the Cavaliers, the Bulls are the Bulls, and it's better to save a little face for yourself.
The Cavaliers' Zhan Huang also renewed Cleveland's contract with 3 years and 100 million, of course, it is still a 2+1 contract, which is also in line with the career mobility that James needs. That's 1.06 US dollars per second, which is really awesome. This is also in preparation for the next collective bargaining agreement. The Lakers finally have some good news, that is, they signed Gasol for 2 years and 30 million. This must have been a lot in the past, but now it ...... It's nothing at all. Very reasonable price.
After Tang Qian's contract is executed, it will definitely be a super top salary, plus bird rights, there is no need to worry at all.
Tang Qian and Gasol spoke on the phone, congratulating the latter on his return, and Gasol also expressed his willingness to spatialize, saying that he will practice long-distance baskets this offseason. That's good news. Although Gasol is playing on the bench, it would be better if he could open up space, and Randle's basket is still empty, basically none.
Gasol's mid-range is already very good, with more than 40% of his career in the long distance and middle distance, if he can practice 3-pointers, then it is difficult to say on the defensive end, and the tactical value on the offensive end will be greatly improved. This is a good thing.
There is also the rich and handsome, Chandler. Parsons cheated another big contract, and the grizzly bear took over, 94.8 million in 4 years, so I asked you if you are afraid, it looks like the rich and handsome pickle girl's life is still going on. Play? That's just my side hustle.
"Zhuangshen" Andrey. Drummond also signed a maximum salary, 130 million for 5 years, which scared people to death.
Lakers management thought about it for a long time and still took Joe. Johnson's contract, which is not expensive, 2 years and 22 million, is mainly considered for his basket. The Raptors also renewed DeRozan's contract, and there is no doubt about the maximum salary. The Wizards re-signed Bradley to a max salary. Bill. The Spurs signed Ginobili to a one-year, 14 million contract.
The free agency market is also surging, and it looks like there will be a lot of changes in the new NBA season this year.
It didn't take long for the Lakers to sign Delon, who was only 32 years old but was no longer strong. Williams, presumably to stock up a little experienced veteran player for the playoffs. The motivation is understandable. Poor Delon was as famous as Paul back then, and now what about ...... Cry out.
Then all kinds of transactions began, Tang Qian looked at the current approximate lineup of the Lakers, himself + Butler + Ariza + Rondo + Randle + Yi Jianlian + Pierce + Josh. Smith + Nick. Young + Covington + Gasol + Joe. Johnson + Delong. Williams + Beverley + rookie Fulkan who can't come over to play for the time being. Korkmaz. Who can go on and who can't, that will have to be run in the training camp. But now it seems that the Lakers' lineup is even worse, at least now there is no Bosh, except for Tang Qian, who is an All-Star player of the year.
Although Butler is in this class, he has not yet been selected. It hurts a little.
But Tang Qian is quite satisfied with this lineup, and last season's playoffs swept all the way, allowing him to see the greatest value of this lineup, not that more stars are better. Besides, there are a lot of defensive stars on the Lakers now. It's even a bit overflowing. Who's to say it's not value? The chemistry is good, and next season, I won't be afraid of any people and teams who huddle.
Of course, the Warriors are a bit scary, and this one should not be underestimated.
Durant +73 wins the team, the power is equal to a deck of cards out of 2 kings, this power, a bit unpredictable.
I hope that the other party will not run in well, and now is not the time to think about this.
The 4-star Warriors, whoever sees it, will have a bit of a headache, their bench is so good, it's really enough.
However, this can't stop me, I still have to defend my title this year! Still a champion!
If any of you want it, come and grab it.
I'm waiting for you to come.
