The next morning, Usilis still woke up on time and started his personal exercise class, as if everything last night had been a dream and had never happened.

Ewing and Michael Jordan were also in the mood to play two bullfights with Usilis.

At noon, James-Dolan, who had come to his senses, held another tripartite meeting.

This time, Michael Jordan directly handed a 2+2 trade request to Mr. Dolan, and handed Ewing a one-year $14 million and a two-year $4 million contract to Ewing, which is the current limit of the Wizards, and any more will not be able to pass the A-Pauling level.

Ewing was a little unhappy, but this was the highest contract he had received in the offseason. His career has reached the end of his career, and the small peak will last for a maximum of one year, and he can only be a veteran in the second and third years of the next year.

$4 million for two years, of which the second year is $3 million for the mini middle class, and the third year is a pension salary of $1 million.

After being reminded by Scott Reden, James Dolan turned down Jordan's trade and put a three-year, $19 million contract in front of Ewing, including a mid-range contract of $4 million for the second year, which is 1 million more than the Wizards.

Everyone has shown their hole cards, and now it's up to Ewing to choose.

In the NBA, the best way to show sincerity is the amount of the contract. Obviously, Mr. Dolan is more sincere, and the Knicks have always been a giant team and are willing to pay the luxury tax for their players, but the Wizards have always been known for being stingy, reluctantly opening a big contract, and it is impossible for the players to pay the luxury tax, let alone create a championship-winning roster in just three years.

Ewing happily accepted James Dolan's contract, and the negotiations came to an end!

Leonsis and Michael-Jordan could only let out a long sigh and move on to other plans to dig into the wall.

On the morning of the third day, Ewing and James Dolan sat down again and discussed an annual salary increase of $1 million before closing the deal.

At noon that day, Usilis announced that he was returning to New York after his vacation.

In this way, the group dispersed, but left in a mighty group.

On the morning of the fourth day, July 10, the sun was shining brightly in New York, sweating like rain, and I couldn't carry it without an umbrella when I went out.

In the press conference room of Madison Square Square was attended by mainstream media from all over the United States, and the second and third media outlets who were not invited also came to fill the entire hall. Today, the Knicks are holding a public signing conference.

The air conditioning in the hall has already been turned on, and a variety of tea and drinks have been prepared and served free of charge.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, James Dolan, the big owner and CEO of the Knicks, wore sunglasses and a cigar in his mouth, swaggered with Scott Reden, the general manager of the Knicks, and came to the stage with an arrogant face, and the head coach Jeff Van Gundy, who was dressed in a formal suit, also followed with a smile on his face. Ursiris took the stage from the other side with his agent Mark Frederick, and Ewing also took the stage with his agent David Falck.

Click, click! In the flickering magnesium lights, I don't know how many negatives were consumed.

Usiris is dressed in a tuxedo, sunglasses, and has a big back like the "God Operator" Pat Riley, and his every move seems to have the style of a superstar.

Ewing is dressed in a formal suit, wearing sunglasses, with a calm and resolute face, and his lips are closed, he is still the unkind king of New York.

Scott Redden pulled out a contract, opened it for the media to take pictures, and handed it to Usiris.

This is one of the most common 3+1 contracts in the NBA.

Since the collective bargaining in '99, there are strict rules for 3+1 contracts in the lotto area, with an average increase of no more than 7.3% in the first three years and 26% in the fourth year.

In front of Usilis is a three-year, $11.41 million contract, the standard 00 champion contract.

In the first year, the annual salary was 3.53 million US dollars. In the second year, the annual salary was $3.8 million. In the third year, the annual salary is 4.07 million US dollars. A total of $11.41 million over three years. In fact, the annual salary for the fourth year is also fixed, which is $5.13 million, which must wait until the end of the rookie contract before another contract can be signed.

For Ussy, he will have to wait until the fifth year to get a $100 million contract in the NBA.

The annual salary of NBA players refers to the 170 days from the beginning to the end of the regular season, excluding preseason and playoffs, and then deducts various taxes to calculate the average daily salary for each day, and finally clocks in and out on a weekly basis. The preseason is when 10-day short contracts are available in bulk, and the playoffs are when the owners take bonuses to cheer the players on.

Compare the annual salaries of the champions over the years.

98 years champion, Michael Orovokandi, 3 years 9.86 million US dollars. In the first year, the annual salary was 2.7 million US dollars; In the second year, the annual salary was $3.46 million; In the third year, the annual salary is 3.7 million US dollars. In the fourth year, the future annual salary is 4.66 million US dollars.

Orovokandi is now messing around with the Clippers and has been scolded by Los Angeles fans as a "parallel importer".

'99 champion, Eldy Brand, $10.89 million over 3 years. In the first year, the annual salary was 3.38 million US dollars; In the second year, the annual salary was $3.63 million; In the third year, the annual salary is 3.88 million US dollars. In the fourth year, the future annual salary is $4.9 million.

Brand is now being groomed as Optimus Prime with the Bulls, pinning his hopes on Chicago's future.

The champion contract for the next 01 year is $11.92 million for 3 years and $5.36 million for the fourth year.

The top contract for the next 02 years is $12.45 million for 3 years and $5.59 million for the fourth year.

For Lotto players in the same class as Usiris, the contract amount is gradually reduced by 90%.

The showman, Kenyon Martin, was awarded a three-year, $10.2 million contract. Tanhuaxiu, Darius Myers, was awarded a three-year, $9.16 million contract. The fourth-round pick in the first round, Marcus Fetzel, was awarded a three-year, $8.26 million contract. Mike Miller, the fifth pick in the first round, received a three-year, $7.48 million contract.

The agent, Mark Frederick, reviewed the contract, handed it over to Usilis, and signed it on the spot.

Usilis took the Knicks' No. 0 jersey from the head coach and held it high in front of him for the media to take pictures.

Up to this time, this year's "Mystery of the Champion" has finally come to a perfect end. (To be continued.) )
