Tang Tian also foresaw this situation, and he would definitely make some follow-up deals.

In fact, if the team can successfully sign Anthony, then Yi Jianlian can be traded, and after deducting the difference between the two, the Nets can control the luxury tax at about $10 million.

After the Nets win a championship, it's wise to keep the core roster as much as possible, especially Irving, Butler, George and Jokic, and other role players who can save money, which is the best way to avoid a salary explosion.

Although Yi Jianlian didn't play much in the Finals, and the arrival of George and Irving also made him drop significantly in the team's low post, his contract is definitely cheap in terms of his performance in the regular season and other games in the playoffs, and there is only one year left in the year, and the trade value is very high.

The NBA is a business league, and the relationship between teams and players is somewhat of a businessman and a commodity, and if a team wants to remain competitive all the time, it is impossible to talk too much about feelings.

Tang Tian was no exception, but before making a decision, he needed to talk to Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian has been with him for many years, and the two have also worked together in the national team.

It happened that Yi Jianlian and his wife were on vacation in Miami, and Tang Tian took a plane directly over.

At the resort hotel, Tang Tian met Yi Jianlian, who was resting by the hotel's pool on a hot summer day.

"Coach, why did you come here on purpose?" Yi Jianlian's personality is much more cheerful now, and when he saw Tang Tian coming, he came over directly with a smile to greet him.

Tang Tian didn't say anything specific on the phone, just said that he came over to talk to him about some things.

Jing Ling also brought the child over to greet him, and they had met many times before, including the one when they had a barbecue together at Yao Ming's house.

After taking a look, Tang Tian and Yi Jianlian went to the second floor.

"We're ready to trade you away from the Nets in the summer, is there a place you'd like to go?" After sitting down, Tang Tian got straight to the point.

Yi Jianlian didn't expect this to happen, his expression was stunned for a moment, and then he said, "Can you tell me the reason?" ”

After winning the championship with the team, he didn't expect the team to trade him right away.

"The team has extended George's contract this year, which has exceeded the luxury tax a lot, and the team will definitely have to consider this aspect, and the player options of Irving and Butler will definitely jump out of the contract next summer, and when the contract expires, it will be difficult to stay." Tang Tian didn't mean to hide it.

Yi Jianlian was silent for a long time after hearing this, and if he changed his position, he should have made this decision as well.

"Coach, I don't have a problem with a trade, but I have something to say." After being silent for a while, Yi Jianlian spoke.

Tang Tian nodded and signaled to him that Yi Jianlian has helped the Nets a lot in the past few years, even if he wants some financial supplements, he is willing to pay in his own pocket.

"I was able to stay in the NBA because of the coach's help, although I don't know why, but it seems that I can only play my best if I play under the coach......"

Tang Tian nodded as he listened, this was the credit of the system.

These words also reminded him of his previous investment in Yi Jianlian, if it wasn't for next year, Yi Jianlian would not be able to stay, and it would be worth it for the team to pay the luxury tax this year.

"So if I have the opportunity in the future, I still hope to be able to play under you."

Tang Tian was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and his hand unconsciously clenched into a fist.

If Yi Jianlian resented him, he would feel better, and this would really make him very entangled.

"It should be difficult, you are also a first-line star now, and you should be able to get a big contract next year." He squeezed out a smile and said.

"I've made enough money in the past few years, if it weren't for the coach, I might not be in the NBA a long time ago, and if I can really stay with the Nets, I don't have any opinion on the base salary extension."

After Yi Jianlian finished speaking, Tang Tian's clenched fists increased again.

This is really the death of a confidant, and his decision is really a little unbearable.

"UAE, this is actually unnecessary, you are only 31 years old, you have not yet reached the age of a veteran, the basic salary is 2 million, and your chances of getting a 20 million contract next year are not small." Tang Tian continued.

His words are not empty words, although the quality of Yi Jianlian will decline a little, but after so many years of physical fitness and technology, these things will not be gone, in such a small ball era, he really has the opportunity to get 20 million.

"Coach, I have received a salary of more than 80 million in the past few years, and I am really not short of money." Yi Jianlian said with a smile.

The rookie contract, the Rockets Cavaliers Nets, calculated that Yi Jianlian's salary was indeed more than ten times that of the year before last.

Tang Tian glanced at Yi Jianlian and knew that he didn't seem to be joking, so he hesitated for a while and said, "Let's take a look." ”

Coming back from Miami, Tang Tian really hesitated, in fact, it is very unlikely that Irving and Butler will be left at the same time next year, after all, unless someone cuts the salary of a team, it is impossible to fit four top salaries at the same time.

Owen must stay, Butler, who was in conflict with Mitchell at that time, is estimated to have to let go, and letting Butler go will have more than 20 million more space, of which it is not impossible to take out more than 10 million to renew Yi Jianlian's contract.

Yi Jianlian has said so, and it is not impossible to pay 50 million luxury taxes a year.

After thinking about it, Tang Tian felt that it was better to take a look first.

If Anthony's final buyout is not reached, and he lets Yi Jianlian go, it will be a big loss to the team's strength.

While Tang Tian was planning for the future lineup, there was no shortage of news in the free market.

Rose and the Timberwolves agreed to a two-year, $10 million contract extension with a team option for the second year.

Kanter exercised the player option to stay with the Knicks.

Jerami Grant and the Thunder reached a three-year, $27 million contract extension.

Bradley signed a 2-year, 25 million contract extension with the Clippers.

Barton signed a 4-year, 54 million contract extension with the Nuggets.

……

In keeping with the trend of previous signings, this year's contract extensions are largely short, and the league's free agency market has reached an unprecedented low.

After raising the salary cap in the first place, capable role players are experiencing an unprecedented shock.

At this moment, a signing that no one thought of made the entire free market and even the entire league boil all at once.

According to OJ, Cousins and the Warriors have reached a one-year, $5.3 million contract.

Although he suffered an Achilles tendon injury, Cousins was a top-five interior player in the absolute league before the injury, and now he has announced that he is joining the Warriors!

And just after this news, the Warriors also announced that they had reached a 2-year, 61.5 million contract extension with Durant!
