The Rockets' operation, as well as Ford's comments, immediately attracted a wave of heated discussions among fans on social media.

"Long live Darrell Morey! He's the NBA General Manager of the Season! ”

"It's really kind of magical, the Rockets just got two quality players for the White Wolves, and they seem to have found the key to reopening the Chinese market after Yao Ming retired."

"Who made this clause? Why is there such an obvious vulnerability? ”

"Man, this is not a loophole, this is to protect the interests of the players, otherwise when there is another Arenas, you can only sign a 2-year mid-level contract with the parent team, and take the risk for 2 more years in vain."

"That's the brains of NBA professional managers, they always find bugs in the rules and take advantage of them."

"We also drafted Jeremy Lamb, and as a fire secret, I suddenly couldn't wait for the new season!"

"Wake up man! You've just won the ninth place in the West for two years, and even if you get Lin and Asik, you won't be able to get out in the brutal West. ”

"Haha, you're so heartbroken, he'll want to beat you along the network cable!"

"But I suddenly remembered Don, he seems to have signed a two-year contract with the Spurs, can he also be poisoned?"

"Obviously, of course!"

"I'm starting to worry a little about the future of my stab."

"Don't worry, although Don has a great rookie season, he is only a role player, and there will not be fans who are so tough."

"Maybe this season's Don isn't worth it, but next season ...... Are you sure he won't improve? ”

"If that's the case, it's going to be up to the Spurs management."

"Ahem, Spurs management...... When did you have the courage? ”

……

These buzzes on social media are just the tip of the iceberg, as the buzz is quickly covered by new buzz.

With the Celtics having no intention of renewing his contract, veteran Ray Allen finally accepted a three-year, 9.3 million contract offered by the Heat.

You must know that even though Ray Allen is 37 years old, he can still contribute 14.2 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.1 steals per game for the Celtics in the regular season last season, and the three-point shooting rate is as high as 45.3%!

Riley made good on his promise to the fans after the Finals loss by recruiting the best role player of the offseason for the team!

A 37-year-old veteran, even if it was an All-Star signing, would not have been a big deal.

But the problem is, he's with the Heat, who beat them last season!

"Cast ...... Defection? ”

"Dude, you don't use this word properly, this is turning enemies into friends, the NBA is a business field, nothing is forever."

"But as a Celtic team secret said it's really unacceptable, they have been playing together since 08 to now!"

"As a Ray Allen fan, I want to say that the Celtics are too careless about the contract extension, they don't seem to want to renew the contract at all, and probably a lot of people don't notice that Ray didn't perform as well as the regular season in the playoffs because of injuries."

"They've won championships together, they played the Heat seven games last season, and they had a good chance of making it to the Finals."

"yes, I thought Ray Allen was going to end up with the Celtics like those legends."

"As far as I know, his contract with the Heat is 3 years and 9.3 million, but the Celtics are offering 2 years and 6 million, and he is ...... for that extra year of contract."

"It's really unforgivable, let's take over the Heat in the new season, they're so disgusting!"

……

The Heat took Ray Allen, but Riley's reinforcements continued.

The team first pardoned Mike Miller, who had underperformed last season, with a pardon clause, and then targeted the inside.

They first signed veteran Rashad Lewis, one of the former supersonic duos, on a one-year contract with a final salary.

Lewis still contributed 7.8 points and 3.9 rebounds with the Wizards last season and was one of the team's rotations.

They then signed Kwame Brown, the "parallel champion", with a 2-year contract of 5 million.

Brown didn't play much with the Warriors last season due to injuries, but he wasn't bad before his injury.

In the 2010~2011 season, he averaged 7.9 points, 6.8 rebounds and 0.6 blocks per game with the Bobcats, shooting 51.7% from the field.

But perhaps because the Bobcat owner is Jordan, he didn't end up with a contract extension.

Last season, he signed a one-year, $7 million contract with the Warriors, averaging 6.3 points and 6.3 rebounds per game.

Add 2 at once, and it is a big man with instant combat power, plus the previously signed Ray Allen, the strength of the Heat team has increased greatly!

Tang Tian watched this series of operations, and also realized that history began to undergo some changes.

But it's also a matter of course.

If the failure to win the championship is the same as the success, then Riley is really a fool.

The opponent is getting stronger, but there is not much movement on the Spurs' side.

Management's focus is on renewing the contracts of Duncan, Dior, Green, and Mills.

Duncan is 45 million for 3 years, Dior is 12 million for 2 years, Green is 12 million for 3 years, and Mills is 9 million for 3 years.

After the completion of these contract extensions, the Spurs are basically close to the luxury line, and the reinforcements are basically non-existent.

I guess this is not what Buford and Popovich intended.

Holt said on championship night that the team hadn't exceeded the luxury tax in 15 years, and for the owner, the management's performance was great, but for the players, the team's refusal to spend money was not necessarily a good thing.

Tang Tian was a little worried about his contract renewal next year.

The good news, though, is that the salary cap will go up sharply in the future, and even if the Spurs do get the poison contract, the team will have plenty of room to match.

After all, the Poison contract has room restrictions on the team that makes an offer, but there is no such thing for the parent team.

It's been almost ten days since the free agent market, and the Howard trade is still out of the question.

Many teams can't afford to wait and are starting to pull out, and some big signings and deals are also breaking out.

The first to quit was the Nets, who renewed the contract of main center Brook Lopez with 4 years and 61 million, and then used a 2-year contract of 24 million to keep Humphries, the "tough guy" who conquered Kim Kardashian.

This was followed by the Nuggets, who left Javier McGee, who exploded in physical fitness, with a big contract of 4 years and 44 million.

And after that, the Nets became the new focus of the league.

They first brought "Hawk King" Joe Johnson from the Hawks in a trade, then traded Deron Williams from the Jazz with chips, and then signed Gerald Wallace with a large amount of money.

In an instant, the main lineup of Deron Williams + Joe Johnson + Gerard Wallace + Humphries + Lopes was there.

The Russian Prokhorov is really rich, and this is directly throwing a lineup out of a heavy money.
