Anthony's current situation, in the eyes of his economic team, even if he signs a mid-level contract with another team, may be the last contract of his career, and it is understandable that they have been seeking a full buyout under this premise.

But the Knicks' full buyout means losing Anthony and taking up nearly 30 million in the salary cap for nothing, and they certainly don't want to.

Looks like things are getting a lot of tricks.

Tang Tian also set his sights on the free agent market.

Anthony is the icing on the cake for the Nets, and there is a natural benefit to getting it, and there is nothing to lose if you don't get it.

In the current free agent market, former veteran Brook Lopez, whose contract with the Suns has expired, and Monroe, who has not yet been signed, will be a supplement to the team.

After receiving Tang Tian's instructions, Jones also began to contact these interior free agents.

Fast forward to July 19th, which is the deadline for Anthony to buy out the extended terms of use according to the rules of the league.

If the Knicks can't trade Anthony away on this day, they'll have to opt for an extension clause or they won't be able to sign at all for the new season.

It was on this day that things finally took a turn for the better.

The Hawks, who traded Jeremy Lin from the Hornets in the offseason and selected Trae Young as a partner for the Knicks, sent Dennis Schroder to Anthony and a 2020 first-round pick (lotto protection, converted to two second-round picks if not acquired in 2020).

Schroder averaged 19.4 points and 6.2 assists per game for the Hawks last season, and although he was a bad team, he was able to cut this statistic to show that he has some ability, and the Knicks have always had a penchant for collecting guards.

The Hawks are hell-bent on rebuilding, Schroder has three years left on his contract, $15 million a year, which they want to get rid of, and the deal also allowed them to get a first-round pick.

This is an acceptable outcome for both parties.

After the deal was reached, OJ also followed up with reports that the Hawks would buy Anthony in full, and the Rockets and Nets were the next options.

At this time, things finally took a turn for the better.

It also put the Nets' move on free agency on hold.

That's when OJ followed up on Anthony and had been training with Paul in Houston, and they met with the Rockets' team soon after the deal was made.

After the meeting, Anthony was "very strongly" inclined to join the Rockets.

Judging from the news that broke out one after another, his friend Chris Paul played a crucial role in this negotiation.

And the Rockets were able to offer Anthony a starting spot after losing Ariza, which made the latter very excited.

Tang Tian traded Anthony to prepare for the game with the Warriors, but he really can't provide such a thing as a starter now, Yi Jianlian is still in his playing year, and he must still start the regular season.

After thinking about it, Tang Tian was still ready to give up.

After not preparing to sign Anthony, Tang Tian threw the rest to Jones and went back to the manor to accompany his wife and children.

He has to go back to China next month, and by the way, he will solve the matter of Boss Ma's transfer of shares, and now he can accompany his family for a while.

After staying for less than two days, an uninvited guest came to the manor.

Yi.

"Allian?" When Aragaki Yui led Yi Jianlian into the door, Tang Tian was still very surprised, this Yi Jianlian should still be on vacation in Miami.

"Coach." Yi Jianlian greeted Tang Tian with a smile, and in Tang Tian's house, he still seemed a little restrained.

Asked Aragaki Yui to go down and make a cup of tea for the two, and then he motioned for Yi Jianlian to sit down in the living room.

"What, it's time to start training early? It's rare to have an offseason to spend more time with my wife and children. Tang Tian said with a smile.

Yi Jianlian nodded with a smile, and then said his intention: "Coach, I heard about Anthony recently, I think the team needs him if they want to beat the Warriors, and I am willing to give up the starting position." ”

Tang Tian's expression was obviously stunned after hearing what Yi Jianlian said.

Before saying that he was willing to renew the contract with a basic salary, and now he said that he wanted to let the starting position, Yi Jianlian has become a Buddha on the ground?

No, although the Liangguang region is very Buddhist, this is certainly not a one-class thing, and the only explanation is that Yi Jianlian really wants to stay with the Nets and continue to play under his coaching.

This is the same as David West's willingness to give up tens of millions of dollars to chase the championship, which cannot be explained by common sense.

"UAE, this ......"

'Coach, I've figured it out, it's not something for me, and the team has lost Oden, so I can be more of a substitute in the game and it's not a problem for me. Without waiting for Tang Tian to finish speaking, Yi Jianlian added directly.

Tang Tian stared at Yi Jianlian for a while, he suddenly felt a little guilty, he was still thinking about trading the latter two weeks ago.

Now he has the urge to renew his contract with the other party in advance.

Of course, this is just an impulse, Yi Jianlian and Butler are both in line with the early renewal of the contract, and if Yi Jianlian is renewed, Butler will definitely not be satisfied at that time.

If there is a conflict within the team, then the problem will be more troublesome.

"Okay, I got it."

Yi Jianlian was resolute, and he didn't say anything more.

However, Yi Jianlian's attitude will definitely allow him to send a good contract extension next summer.

After seeing off Yi Jianlian, Tang Tian asked Jones to urgently contact Anthony, and the two sides had a meeting in New York.

"Looking at LeBron's current achievements and low positions, don't you want to chase it? Are you willing to have no championship in your career? ”

Solved the problem of starters, in fact, the Nets can give far better conditions than the Rockets.

The Rockets have Paul, the Nets just signed Wade to a contract extension, and everyone has a banana boat member.

The Rockets were able to provide a mini middle class, and Tang Tian directly opened a 2-year contract of 11 million to Anthony.

The Rockets are second to none in the West, and the Nets are the defending champions.

And what attracts Anthony more than the Rockets is that the Nets are next door to Manhattan, and Anthony doesn't have to move.

The choice, in fact, became no suspense after the Nets gave the starting commitment.

Anthony signed a contract with the Nets as soon as the Hawks and Anthony reached a full buyout.

OJ then followed up with a report that the two-year contract comes with no options and is fully guaranteed.

The contract itself also sheds a message that the Nets' Anthony is bullish and they believe the latter can provide enough help to the team.

And after this signing was reached, the league suffered another shock.

Although it is not as strong as Cousins joining the Warriors, although he signed only Anthony in the last year of his career, but in theory, the Nets have also reached a five-star lineup!

Minced meat big eggplant said

"Husband, I'm pregnant!"

"Great, I'm going to be a dad."

"Do you like boys or girls?"

"Boys and girls don't matter, it's just my own."

"Of course it's your own, everyone else wears a condom, but you don't wear it."
