After suffering a defeat last season, Jim Buss, who officially took over the Lakers, didn't want to keep Howard.

"Happy Beast" is very angry.

Because he has been sitting at home waiting for the Lakers' big contract, he found that the Lakers didn't want to renew his contract at all!

Howard had a hint of sympathy for O'Neill back then.

In an interview, Howard also expressed his displeasure with the Lakers.

However, Howard is in trouble, and he doesn't want to fall out with the Lakers.

Because in Howard's opinion, he just bought a few katana and waited for the Lakers to coax him.

However......

The ideal of "Happy Beast" is good, but the reality is a certain gap.

Although Lakers general manager Kupchak has always said that they are confident in renewing Howard's contract, in fact, Kupchak has not even looked carefully at the requirements made by Howard's agent.

The fact that Kobe Bryant was not injured had too much impact on the Lakers.

In Lin Yi's previous life, because of Kobe's injury, Bass Jr. got a two-year buffer time, but now Kobe Bryant's spirit is better...... Just waiting to break Havlicek's record.

Therefore, from the moment Jim Buss took charge of the Lakers, he began his "three-year contract" with his old sister.

Little Bus, who shouted "Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi", as the number one Komi in this league, might give up Kobe?

Of course not.

Since that's not possible, I'm sorry...... Why don't you go somewhere else and look for a job, Howard?

The Lakers intend to completely free up salary space, because only in this way can they have a chance to turn around in the summer of '14.

After all, a team like the Lakers can't stupidly wait for a rookie and then slowly rebuild.

Therefore, if you want to give full play to the Lakers' attraction to stars, the Lakers themselves must first have room to operate.

And Morey, the general manager of the Rockets, smelled the cattiness between the Lakers and Howard, so he flew to Los Angeles as soon as possible.

It's just that shortly after Morey arrived in Los Angeles, the shrewd general manager found out why the Mavericks' general manager, Nelson Jr., also came to Los Angeles?

Could it be that he came to rob Howard with me?

Last season, after Harden played a cornerstone performance, Morey plans to build a team around Harden in the future, because due to the influence of the OK combination and the fried chicken combination, it is widely believed that one big and one small are the best combination.

Morey believes that Howard can be a good complement to Harden, and the combination of the two will definitely lead the Rockets to go far in the West.

"No, Donnie can't be the first to get started!"

Morey decided that he wanted to start negotiations with Howard as soon as possible, but he couldn't, and he could quote a slightly higher price at that time.

Anyway, Morey is very good at using rules, and when the time comes, he just needs to add some rules and regulations to the contract.

And after the general manager of Mavericks, Nelson Jr., arrived in Los Angeles and found that Morey was staying in the same hotel with him, Nelson Jr. was also vigilant!

In particular, the Rockets are not here to compete with us for Jordan Jr., right?

Last season, after being sniped by the Spurs again, Mavericks head coach Carlisle believes that Stoudemire is fine on the offensive end, but the Mavericks need an interior player who can protect the restricted area.

Carlisle took a fancy to the Clippers' Jordan Jr., so Carlisle suggested to the Mavericks' uniform team that the Mavericks could try to trade Jordan Jr. with Si.

In this life, Xiao Si did not suffer a major injury, and his form declined and declined, but when the Clippers learned that the Mavericks were willing to send Xiao Si, the Clippers' uniform team thought that the picture of the Griffin plus Xiao Si combination would be beautiful!

The two violent dunks in the front game, so the box office must not be full?

After the summer window opened, the Clippers have signed Bledsoe to a contract extension.

The retirement of Billups also freed up some salary space for the Clippers, and the Clippers felt that a swap between Smalls and Jordan Jr. could be possible, so they invited Mavericks general manager Donny Nelson to Los Angeles to negotiate the details of the transaction.

After all, there are injury protection provisions in Xiao Si's contract, and if Xiao Si is not good in the future, the Clippers can free up salary space by cutting Xiao Si.

All in all...... This is also the chain reaction brought about by Kobe Bryant's injury.

Because Kobe Bryant is not injured, the Lakers' attention Clippers can't take it away.

You must know that in Lin Yi's previous life, there are several reasons why the Clippers were able to steal the attention of the Lakers during this period, in addition to the sky-high broadcast contract between the Lakers and the Warner era, which caused Los Angeles fans to need to spend more money to see the Lakers' games, a very important point is that Kobe's injury caused the Lakers to enter a period of N years of rot.

No way, who made Bass Jr. true love for Kobe?

The year of Kobe's retirement in the future is an example, starting the nag of the tour, and snatching back the attention of the Lakers.

To put it bluntly, the NBA is a business league.

In the business league, the appeal of stars is immeasurable, for example, if the Knicks don't have Lin Yi, can they still guarantee the box office?

Belch!

It seems that even if there is no Lin Yi, the box office of the Knicks is full......

Well, it doesn't matter!

The important thing is that the Clippers are much weaker than Lin Yi remembers!

So, this leads to the fact that the Clippers now want more box office.

Because Smalls is also an All-Star interior lineman, the Clippers are optimistic about his combination with Griffin.

However, the Clippers feel that if the Mavericks want Jordan Jr., they must at least pay some draft picks, after all, Jordan Jr.'s contract is smaller than that of Xiaosi, and the Clippers want to trade with the Mavericks, and the Clippers have to pay the corresponding equal chips.

The Clippers are not interested in the old guys of the Mavericks, and the most interested Irving Mavericks are unlikely to be traded, so the Clippers hope that the Mavericks can pay some draft picks in this trade.

Thereupon...... Morey's "open and dark fight" with Nelson Jr. began.

Both general managers knew that their teams needed a rim barrier and saw each other as rivals.

Howard, who was idle at home, was stunned.

Listening to the promise that the rocket gave him, Howard floated......

"Hehe, I just said, I'm a player who can replace LeBron alone, and the Lakers think that if they don't renew my contract, I won't be able to go anywhere else?" Howard, who was held in the palm of Morey's hand, was very happy.

Houston, seems like a good place to go?

The boss of that team is Harden, this kind of young man, very suitable for me!

Howard, who has been snubbed by the Lakers these days, knows very well that the Lakers will inevitably choose the latter between him and Kobe.

"Hmph, the Lakers hugged Kobe Bryant, thinking that Kobe was a vault, but they didn't know that they gave up my bigger treasury." Howard thought to himself with indignation.

As the negotiations with Howard came to an end, Morey was also a little proud.

Because he thinks he's ahead of Nelson Jr.

On the other hand, the negotiations between the Clippers and the Mavericks have also come to an end.

The Clippers uniforms, who have always suffered losses in trades, found that in this negotiation, no matter what they asked, the Mavericks would agree quickly, as if they were afraid that the trade would fail.

The Clippers uniform team was satisfied with the Mavericks' offer, so the team notified Jordan Jr. and asked him to report to Dallas for the new season.

And this can make little Jordan sad.

What the?

Dallas?

I'm not going!

I have promised Blake that I will wander the world with him, as a man of promise, how can I break my word?

Clippers general manager Orsi reluctantly called Jordan Jr. and told him, "DAndrew, Dallas promised that after your contract expires, they will give you the full maximum salary." ”

Jordan Jr.'s response was also very direct.

"Okay, I'll pack my bags right away." What are you kidding, let that stupid firewood hug Jenna to hell!

My little Jordan is going to Dallas to make a lot of money!

What loyalty?

That's all because the money wasn't in place.

This alliance ...... It's that real.
