114. Gasol renews his contract

On the first day of the new year, the Lakers had a happy event. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Adrian-Wojnarowski, nicknamed woj, who became popular last year, was the first to report that the Lakers and Gasol reached a five-year contract extension, with a starting salary of 7.8 million and a total of 45 million for five years, which is an average of 9 million a year for a five-year long contract.

And the last year of the contract comes with a player option! And it contains a rejection clause for the first four years!

As mentioned above, Gasol wants to go to a strong team, and it is estimated that he will have to reduce his salary significantly, Liu Ren remembers that the contract signed by Gasol and the Bulls is 15 million for two years, and the renewal conditions given by the Lakers are really very generous!

The trade rejection clause, commonly known as the overlord clause or the non-tradable clause, generally signs this kind of clause, and there is no possibility of leaving the team during the basic contract period!

Well, there was also an accident, Garnett and Pierce were disheartened and accepted the trade and were sold to the Nets after Augie's pleading.

It was an accident.

Gasol and Kupchak each took a step back when they negotiated their contracts, with Kupchak accepting a trade rejection clause with a one-year player option, and Gasol relenting and excluding the last-year player option from the trade rejection clause. If he doesn't want to play in his final year and wants to retire, the Lakers can still trade him as if he were on a long-term contract.

Gasol's final year salary of $11.7 million is attractive to teams looking to clear up salary space, after all, the future is a big year for free agency.

gave a 34-year-old veteran a 5-year long contract, and the outside world praised the Lakers and Gasol's contract renewal more than they depreciated, and once again took the Anji incident as a target and stepped on it.

"They are all top giants, why is the gap so big?" This is the evaluation of this deal by a friend from the Northeast, which is to the point, simple and crude.

"This contract extension is good for both parties, the Lakers have maintained the stability of their roster, and Gasol's experience is also indispensable for the Lakers' young roster, although it is a little longer, but the salary is not high......" is the comment of the sensible fan.

"It's clearly a double loss, right? The Lakers signed a 5-year contract with a 34-year-old veteran, and it will definitely rot in his hands, Gasol took so much less money, if he came to my big rocket, Morey would definitely be willing to give him a contract of more than 15 million...... "This friend is a Rockets fan.

The Rockets have indeed drooled Gasol for many years, and they were even willing to help the Lakers out of chips to get Paul, but they only wanted Gasol.

For this signing, most fans still have positive comments, the Lakers give a meritorious player a long-term contract with a trade rejection clause, which is already Kobe, Duncan, Nowitzki level treatment.

Looking at Duncan's new contract, it is only 20 million for two years, which is not as generous as Gasol's contract in some ways.

……

"Zach, you're so stupid! I didn't ask Liu for his phone number! Stupid stupid stupid! Joanna wanted to knock open the stupid boy's head and see what was inside.

LaVine was like a kid who had done something wrong: "I'm sorry Joanna, I was so excited, why don't we go to the arena first!" ”

"Nope! I must wait until Liu comes, he promised you, he wants us to take a photo, by the way, he will find Kobe Bryant to take a photo with us! Joanna said firmly.

"But can we wait here for him to come?" Laven asked weakly, where the two of them were at the entrance to the parking lot.

While there is an exclusive parking lot for players at the Staples Center, the entrance is here.

"Of course, I know Liu very well, you see this, I have pictures of his new car! This is what he was photographed by the paparazzi when he picked up the car from the car dealership, ZXX9527, what a handsome license plate number, although I don't know the meaning of this license plate number. Joanna said proudly that this was a "precious" photo he bought for fifty dollars on a paid forum.

"That's cool! One day I'm going to be an NBA player too, I'm going to be even better than Liu, and I'm going to buy a car like that! LaVine said enviously, although he didn't know what the license plate number meant, but this kind of license plate was not a standard California license plate number at first glance, but a number that had been modified at a great cost.

"Come on, no one is more powerful than Liu, and he will be greater than Kobe in the future!" Jordana immediately retorted.

Liu Ren must not have imagined that Joanna, who was choreographed by him and Chen Hanni, was his fan.

"Nope! I'm going to be better than everybody! One day I'll be the greatest player of the Lakers! ”

LaVine's rare excitement startled Joanna.

Joanna thought to herself, "I didn't expect Zach to have such a manly side!" I thought he was just a funny big boy, but he was handsome! ”

Joanna snorted twice and said, "Then I'm going to have to watch you carefully to see if you're bragging!" ”

"Of course! I will definitely fulfill my words! I...... Eh, Joanna, do you see if that one is Liu's Ferrari? LaVine was about to emphasize his vow, when he suddenly saw a black Ferrari driving up, and it was the car in the photo just now.

"Really! It's Liu's car! Liu...... Liu ......" Joanna suddenly left poor Laven's handsome appearance behind, ran towards the car, and shouted Liu Ren's surname.

Poor Laven could only run over and help stop Liu Ren.

……

ZXX9527, Liu Ren suddenly thought of the number when he chose the license plate number a few days ago, if you have watched a lot of Stephen Chow movies, you can definitely understand the meaning of this license plate number, but Americans definitely don't understand.

Tonight is the Lakers' home game against the Bucks, it is not a focus battle, and it can even be said that there is nothing to pay attention to, one is the top four in the West, the other is the second-to-last in the East, and there is not even a broadcast.

Los Angeles fans also have little interest in this game, and when the Lakers sell tickets, the tickets for the pre-game warm-up are all given away with the main tickets, and there are not too many fans around the Staples Center who come to watch in advance.

However, when he drove the car to the entrance of the parking lot, two crazy fans rushed towards his car in such a desperate way that he was so frightened that he braked quickly.

"Damn! Don't die! ”

Liu Ren opened the window, uh, his lusso is not a soft top, but a hard top, the safety is enhanced a lot, not afraid of falling bricks from the sky, but it is a little slow when folding the roof, and it will be closed after a while, which is too troublesome.

The hardtop open-top looks harmonious when the roof is closed, unlike the soft-top where the roof and body are inconsistent at a glance.

"Hug hug hug...... Sorry, Liu, it's me, I'm Zach, do you remember me? ”

Hearing the sound of stuttering, Liu Ren immediately remembered that it was the Laven who seemed to have a bit of a second brain......
