Chapter 338: The Opening Cannon of the Summer of '05

"Why do you only want to sign for three years? Fourth year or player option? Gong Feng, why do you still have considerable doubts about the future of the Knicks? ”

Gong Feng looked at Mir, who was sitting precariously, and smiled first, from some awe and strangeness at the beginning, to relying on each other later, the two of them are indeed in some not very sensitive topics, and they don't need to say anything more to each other!

"Mir, you know! The future is a two-way street! The future of the Knicks, my future, those are two straight lines, not one! And this is a normal business negotiation, and the salary I want is not low, so what are the two of us talking about here? ”

"You know what I mean! How did Jay say something to you? Or do you think I chose to let him go because of you? ”

"Isn't it?"

Looking at Gong Feng's eyes that didn't know what to think, Mir was completely choked all of a sudden! "You know what I'm trying to say!"

"Wouldn't it be nice to give young people a chance? Such a choice is the best explanation for you and me, and for him! Mir, Jay can only be a one-time way to ease the conflict, you can't continue anything with such a deal! Otherwise the Knicks will be abandoned by the league! ”

Mir stopped talking all of a sudden, or couldn't say anything now, Gong Feng's choice was very unexpected to him, and even Mir didn't know what his current state of mind was.

"Mir, don't think too much! People are inert, my future needs to be my own decision, not others, this is my choice, neither of us can know what the future will be like, in this case, wouldn't it be better to leave a room for you and me when the time comes? ”

Seeing Mir's expression gradually return to normal, Gong Feng said with a smile: "Don't think about how great I am, I haven't realized that yet, what I want to do is just to make one more choice for myself in the future!" ”

Mill? Dolan smiled, then extended the lease contract of a house to seven years, signed his name one by one, and then handed it to Gong Feng, and said, "We have reached an agreement on this!" ”

Gong Feng was a little stunned by Mir's appearance, but he smiled, didn't continue to say anything, and after signing his name on the two contracts, he stood up at the first time, stretched out his hand and held Mir tightly.

There was no third person in this spacious room, and even Derek was not there on such an important occasion, just asked Gong Feng to mail him the contract book, which was Gong Feng's trust in a friend.

Sometimes it's really nice to trust someone.

Gong Feng signed a three-plus-one contract with the Knicks, with a three-year contract of nearly 40 million, and the contract amount of the fourth year is as high as about 17.5 million, and the fourth year of the contract is a dual option for the team and the player.

That's the terms of the contract that the Knicks can give Bow Peak the highest share right now.

……

"We now have an agreement on this?"

"Of course, I'd love to see Allen fighting for the Knicks for seven years!"

The signing between Mir and Allen was between Knicks professionals and Allen's agent, and there were many people in the room, and Mill didn't interject or say anything about the signing process between the two parties, only after everything was agreed, he suddenly said: "I can be alone with Allen for a while before signing my name!" ”

The sentence was a declarative sentence, not a question, and Aaron's agent frowned and glanced at Mir, who was well-known in the league, and then looked at Aaron, his eyes full of inquiry.

Although Aaron was a little surprised by the way Mir spoke, he only nodded faintly to his agent.

Twenty seconds later, only Aaron and Mir were left in the luxurious room.

At this time, Mir stood up, took out a bottle of red wine with vintage and connotation from his wine cabinet, signaled to Aaron, then opened the bottle, and poured a glass for Aaron himself.

While indulging in each other's enjoyment of the wine, Mir suddenly asked, "Aaron, can you and I still enjoy this glass of wine at this time next year?" ”

"That's inevitable, the Knicks are strong right now!"

"Yes! The Knicks are very tough right now! Mir replied lightly, and his eyes were fixed on Aaron's eyes.

Aaron saw such a mir smile, from the beginning of the smile, to the end of the laughter, this is really very rare for the usual gentlemanly Alun, after laughing for almost a minute, Aaron finally spoke: "I, Ray Allen, swear here now, this time next year, I am still me!" I was also who I am until the moment I quit the league! ”

Seeing this Aaron, Mir smiled, first signed his name on the contract, then raised his glass and smiled at Aaron, then drank the wine in one gulp, and said, "I will always remember this moment!" ”

Allen also signed his name in the contract, "I really look forward to the Knicks' future glory." ”

……

"The Milwaukee Bucks were the first in the first round to choose from ...... Boggart, let's welcome this big guy from Australia! ”

"The Eagles chose Chris, from Wake Forest University? Paul, Knicks and Hawks previously reached a deal for the second rookie in the first round, with Jay? Williams and the Warriors' No. 6 draft pick this year, plus the newly signed Pachuria, in exchange for the Atlanta Hawks' second-round pick in the first round and some cash! ”

"Here I would like to congratulate our No. 2 rookie on coming to a team of defending champions and hope he has a great time in New York!" Stern's face was extremely calm as he read some of the details of the transaction, and even included some of the extremely surprised expressions on the floor at once.

"The Utah Jazz chose the ...... in third place Delong? Williams, New Orleans Hornets in fourth place is Junhao Chen from Duke University! ”

"The Charlotte Bobcats chose to come from ...... Raymond? Felton! Did the Knicks get the No. 6 draft pick Marvin? Williams...... Spurs selected from ...... in 29th place David Lee. The Knicks chose to pick the 30th draft pick from ...... Power forward Brydon? Bass. ”

In the first moment of the subsequent free market, the Knicks announced new contracts with Bow Peak and Ray Allen, and announced the signing of Paul and Buss, who were drafted in the draft, and Nick, a free agent. Van Eccel has agreed a one-year veteran base salary deal.

When Korver accepted a five-year, 2,305-year, contract from the Cavaliers, and when Payton decided to sign with the Miami Heat as a free agent, the Knicks were the first to announce that they had achieved all their goals this summer, ending all summer trades.

Many teams have felt a little calm about the Knicks' quick and direct announcement of something every summer, but the Knicks' move can only be an appetizer in the free market every year, and this summer has been quite a lively year in these years!

However, the Knicks' lineup for the start of the '05-06 season was decided at this moment.

PG, Bow Peak (1200), Paul, Nick

SG, Ray Allen (1322, signed for five years), Livingston

S.F., Hill (1569), Ariza

P.F., Bosh, Battier (490)

C, Yao Ming, Dior, Bass

The first trade of the summer was neither the Kwame Brown that almost all teams wanted, nor was it expected by all teams.

The Cleveland Cavaliers started their first shot of the summer.

The Cleveland Cavaliers first reached a one-year contract of 11.24 million with Wizards free agent Larry Hughes, because of the rise of Kwame Brown and the distribution of the ball by the Wizards, it is difficult for Hughes to reach the multi-year contract this summer, and it is also because the Cavaliers want to match someone, and for Hughes to prove that he can meet the contract for tens of millions!

The Cavaliers completed the contract extension with Big Z with a one-year contract of 11.2 million. Signing veteran Marshall with a one-year contract of 6 million is obviously a renewal that breaks some potential rules, but is clearly tacitly approved by some.

But such a signing is the beginning? Haha, that's not counting, the Cavaliers' subsequent big trade is the opening shot of the whole summer.

The Cavaliers added Larry with the newly signed Big Z? Hughes, plus potential center Drew Gooden and veteran Marshall, a two-million trade exception, in exchange for the 76ers' Chris? Webb vs. Allen? Iverson.

This is a trade between the two teams, which really makes the rest of the league tremble. (To be continued.) )
