Chapter 0670 - Sky-high Cannon! The storm is coming! (First update!) )

On July 1, the NBA free agent transfer market officially opened.

The Knicks' unrestricted free agent, Tony Allen, joined the Memphis Grizzlies on a five-year, $30 million contract.

At the same time, the Nimi also sent their blessings to Mr. Tony, and the picture of Tony Allen's steal of Ellis in the 11 finals is still fresh in the memory of many Nimi.

A banner was also hung on the Knicks' official website, wishing Tony Allen a happy time in Memphis.

In addition to Mr. Tony's departure, the Knicks also signed a contract extension with my cannon.

We signed a "3+1" contract with the Knicks, with a player option for the final year of the contract, and the total value of this contract reached $87.5 million.

The "3+1" contract is Lin Yi's suggestion to Paul.

Because in the future, after the NBA signed that huge $24 billion broadcast contract in the summer of 2014, from the 15/16 season, the NBA's salary will rise sharply, and at this time, it is obviously more cost-effective to renew a short contract than to sign a long contract.

Paul's agent also doesn't want me to sign a long-term contract directly with the Knicks, because Paul is now losing money on extending his long-term contract.

You must know that Paul has been playing for the Knicks for exactly 3 years, and according to the 11-year version of the collective bargaining agreement, Paul will not get the theoretical "absolute maximum salary".

After the renewal was completed, the "sky-high gun" was a little melancholy, "Lin ...... You say that salaries will really go up? ”

Lin Yi looked at me who was suffering from gains and losses, "Of course, Chris, the ratings record of this year's finals has been refreshed again, don't you usually watch the news?" The NBA's next TV contract is sure to be much higher than it is now, and in short, what's the benefit of signing a long-term contract now? ”

Paul nodded, in fact, the salary has risen sharply, and there have been rumors of it since 13 years, but many people have a wait-and-see attitude towards the salary rise.

Seeing that Lin Yi was so sure that his salary would rise sharply, Paul felt relieved.

It's still important to make money when you play ball, after all, no one in this world will think that you get less.

Lin Yi looked at me and asked curiously, "Chris, you shouldn't be unconfident in yourself, right?" ”

Paul, who was poked by Lin Yi in the center, blushed, "I didn't, it's not me, don't talk nonsense!" ”

Lin Yile is happy, Lin Yi knows that Paul is afraid that his strength will decline in the future, and he may not be able to get a big contract in three years.

I didn't expect the "first point guard" to have such a side?

Chris, you don't really think you're the Knicks' six-in-command, do you?

Wake up, you're only 28 years old, and you'll be 31 years old three years later.

Lin Yi asked Paul and the Knicks to sign for only three years, also in order to get stuck in Paul's last year of contract, so that in the 15/16 season, even if Lin Yi, Paul, and Klay are all top salaries, the Knicks' salary space is enough to sign another supergiant.

"When the time comes, who will turn enemies into friends with the Knicks?"

Lin Yi found that the credibility of his current speech has become higher and higher, taking the Knicks' recruitment work this summer as an example, after he invited Nash on Twitter, Uncle Nash went straight to New York.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, Lin Yi knows very well that he can't talk nonsense anymore in the future, because the ghost knows if others will believe it?

On July 2, the Knicks officially signed a one-year veteran base salary with Nash, and after the contract extension was completed, Nash said that he would retire after the season regardless of the outcome of next season.

Lin Yi made a call to Nash, "Steve, do you want to consider coming to the Knicks as an assistant coach after retiring?" ”

Nash smiled, "Lin, don't expect too much from me, you saw my performance last season, I'm here to win the championship this time." ”

Lin Yi wants to keep Nash with the Knicks, and because Nash has a good relationship with Kerr, Kerr also revealed in the future that Nash will often point out the shooting of Warriors players.

As a head coach, D'Antoni obviously still has his own flaws, and Lin Yi hopes that the Knicks' think tank will become stronger and stronger, after all...... He can't really be the head coach of the Knicks, right?

Although, it seems to be now.

Lin Yi plans to officially invite Cole to be the general manager of Kerr's Knicks after his contract with the Suns expires.

What kind of Warriors coach is it, how hi is it to be the general manager of the Knicks, and lie down to win every year.

……

On the 3rd, Gobert arrived in New York, and in Lin Yi's training camp, the stunned young man looked at the "living version" of the MVP and was very nervous for a while.

"Rudy, take it easy!" Lin Yi patted Gobert on the shoulder and encouraged.

Goebel swallowed, I know it's going to be easy, so good, but, you know, what it's like to train with an idol?

I feel like my little heart is about to explode.

Gobert also asked Lin Yi curiously before the start of the special training, "Old ...... Boss, do I really not have to play in summer league? ”

Gobert is worried because he heard from many international players before coming to the NBA that if they don't play in summer league, they often don't get a chance to play in the new season.

Lin Yi touched his head, could it be that the king told you?

"What's the summer league? Can Summer League be as high as my bootcamp? This is really not Lin Yi's bragging, even the Las Vegas training camp of the American team may not be as high as his training camp.

Silly Chai, who broke up with Jenner, also came to New York, plus Harden, DeRozan, Cousins, Wall, Reservoir, Kehao......

Why don't you leave the vault, you're going to the slums?

And besides, how much playing time Gobert can play in the new season, it's not Knicks head coach Lin Yi who has the final say?

Lin Yi plans to take Goebel to train with him, which will help the gibbon improve.

The current Gobert is still a lot worse in terms of experience, and on the first day of special training, this goods was blown up by Cousins and Griffin in turn.

But...... To Griffin's heart, Gobert also capped him several times......

Looking at Gobert's long arms, Griffin would always silently look up at the ceiling.

It turns out that they are all humans, and there are still some differences in breed.

If Griffin's arms are longer, his upper limit will be much higher, and sometimes Griffin doesn't want to prevent it, but he can't prevent it!

Fortunately, Goebel's technique is rough now, and Silly Fen can always use his experience to hammer Gobert.

However...... On the 4th, with the arrival of the 13-year-old champion Brother Alphabet in New York, Griffin's good days came to an end.

Another "long-armed monster" has arrived!

With Lin Yi, Griffin felt that his life would not be able to live!

This Nima is a nailboard hat at every turn!

Harden, who was lazy on the side, looked at Griffin like he was retarded, "Blake even has to fight for this, alas...... What's there to compete with? Why aren't they bigger than anyone's little brothers? ”

In Harden's view, he can't win the championship, so he can only barely mess with the playoffs, and then go to nightclubs every day to maintain his life.

Of course, that's what to say.

With Houston's negotiating team arriving in Los Angeles, it was clear to Harden that the launch of Space City was just a countdown.

At the same time, the Dallas negotiating team also quietly arrived in Los Angeles.
