Chapter 481: 120 million renewal of Kuha, the second round of Taobao Jokic, please drink Coke
One is one FMVP and the other is two FMVPs, but they're all about the same. Fish
Harden's personal ability is more comprehensive, and his talent and offense and defense are a little better.
Curry's words are more projective and his mental attributes are better.
But without exception, both of them have played at the level of star players!
The current salary before the start of the 14-year draft is this:
Jimmy Butler: Annual salary of 3.5 million this year, 18 million for 5 years.
Danny Green: 13.33 million, 40 million in 3 years
Beverly: 10 million, 30 million for 3 years. Fish
Ibaka: 12 million, 36 million for 3 years
George: 2.8 million
Hayward: 2.8 million
Kyle Anderson: 1.6 million
Yi Jianlian, 10 million, 1 year left. (Middle class)
Howard: 20 million (3-year max contract)
Rudy Gobert: 1.4 million, 8 million for 5 years. Fish
Dior: 8 million, 23 million for 3 years.
Klay Thompson: 2.63 million. (10 million for 4 years.) )
Dream Green: 2 million, 10 million in 5 years. (Two-way contract)
Barnes: 3.4 million, 15 million over 5 years.
Now it's 93.46 million.
This year's salary cap is 110.29 million.
The luxury tax line is 123 million. Fish
So no matter who caps the salary, the Knicks are definitely over the salary cap.
Because there are too many middle-class tens of millions of contracts.
No team has so many tens of millions of contracts like the Knicks, generally 1 maximum salary and 2 tens of millions of annual salaries are the most, and the others are patched up by scraps.
For example, the Cavaliers Big Three still have to eat Irving's dividends now.
Jiang Chao thought about it:
"93 million, excluding two two-way and one middle-class bird rights, is about 80 million?"
Max: Fish
"That's right, if you want to pick rookies this year, the two rookies are 5 million."
"It is 40 million away from the luxury tax line, which must be exceeded."
"Then sign long, it's okay if it's a little longer."
Jiang Chao's decision was very decisive, and he gave the @ who won 4 crowns jointly at the historical level
Because they were driven by netizens to compare who is stronger, and then there are a lot of topics about who is more worthy of the top salary.
After all, the Knicks now have a bit of a feeling that they only need an outside core, and what is lacking is the inside line.
In the eyes of the football emperors, and even Curry Harden himself, the Knicks may have to use one of them to sign first and then trade for a good star-level center, so that the salary will still be under the salary cap. Fish
How did you think that Jiang Chao would directly do it in one step, and he didn't care if it would exceed the luxury tax, but he just gave the top salary!!
Here's how!
Mad!!
But the forum is full of praise, and the circle is full of scolding.
Put aside this show of affection and money!!
Do you know that your Chaoshen Group has made a lot of money in the past few years!
In recent years, Chaoshen Group has made the most money in the logistics industry chain jointly built with Taobao and Jingdong, and the logistics base of the whole China is connected like stars, so what is Musk engaged in Starlink. Fish
Jiang Chao is also doing it, but he is engaged in industry for the people, and he is really serving the people, and the express delivery will basically arrive within 2 days, and how many employment problems have been solved!
Now they are rushing to be employees of Chaoshen Logistics, although it is boring, but it is really profitable!
And with Kuha's maximum salary extension and Matthews going to the Clippers to get a big contract, the Knicks have three roster spaces in addition to two two-way contracts.
In fact, there are quite a lot of signings this year.
There are their own first-round 30 picks, as well as third-round 30 picks at the end of the second round.
But there is also a 14-year Raptors second-round pick traded by Teck Drew, and the Raptors drew the 12th pick in the second round, which is wonderful enough.
So the Knicks can pick 3 rookies. Fish
"Can the newcomers to the Knicks stand up? This Gobert is obviously not good, compared to Da Yao and Lao Huo."
"What kind of bicycle do you want for the final round of last year's first round?"
"I want the Knicks to pick whatever they want, and it feels like they're still a championship-caliber team after re-signing Kuha!"
"I think Yi Jianlian may be leaving, the CBA has been inviting him to fatten, and Guangdong has not won a championship for several years."
"Whatever, I only care about this year's Lakers draft, let's choose a successor to Kobe!"
"The Lakers didn't mess up last year, and this year's boss only announced his retirement, so let's get next year's champion."
However, there are indeed a lot of good seedlings this year, and Jiang Chao looked at it all "good things" after getting the scouting report, so he focused on a wave this year. Fish
Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker, Marcus Smart, Julius Randall, Aaron Gordon, T. J. Warren, Noah Vonleh, Joel Embiid and Taylor Ennis, LaVine, ......
Including Australia's Dante Exum and soon-to-be-graduated Doug McDermott.
What Hood, Ingles, Joe Harris, Capela, Powell, Jordan Clarkson......
And then the familiar Nikola Jokic!
It's no wonder that Kyle Anderson in his previous life could only be 30 in the first round of this draft, because there are too many talents, and the second round is a bunch of good, Powell and Jordan Clarkson can only be in the second round!
In Jiang Chao's view, Brother Alphabet, who was ranked 15th in the 15th pick last year, can only go to the second round of qualifying this year, because many players' skills and tactics are mature.
If he travels back to 2013-14 this year and engages in more draft picks, he will definitely be able to form a set of Galaxy Battleships. Fish
Brother Alphabet + Jokic, this basic lineup can really be obtained with casual operation.
However, Jiang Chao doesn't need Brother Alphabet much now, and the development of Brother Alphabet will also take a while, and now the Knicks' forward line is obviously enough, and he can't give Brother Alphabet so much time.
In Jiang Chao's opinion, at most six consecutive championships, he really should be the shopkeeper, and now it is a historic four-consecutive championship, and it is said that he is the Jordan of the boss.
If you win the championship again after six consecutive championships, to be honest, the NBA will be boring and you won't be able to play, so it's not impossible to go all out last year to engage in Brother Alphabet, but it's likely
The Knicks for the next decade are also very strong.
It's a kind of distress to be too strong.
..........
At the Barclays Center, Jiang Chao finally appeared at the draft meeting after 2 years. Fish
Because this year is special, there are too many excellent people, and look at Wiggins's anti-sky.
With the 30th pick in the first round, the Knicks selected Spencer Dinwiddie, who was originally a defender who predicted the second-round pick and was indeed a second-round pick in the future.
Downey Jr.'s draft report goes like this:
Spencer Dinwiddie had a chance to be a first-round pick, but a serious anterior cruciate ligament tear before his candidacy clouded his prospects; Dinwiddie's style of play is mature and steady, and the assist-to-turnover ratio is very good.
The DVD in Jiang Chao's eyes looks like this:
"Spencer Dinwiddie has the height and weight to be a point guard, has the ability to attack forward, can score under the basket, can make free throws and has a great free throw feel, has a good pick-and-roll awareness, and has a good ability to handle the ball in transition offense.
The downside is that you don't have enough speed and you need to add strength, and knee injuries are a hidden danger in your career." Fish
In short, he is a two-way guard with the ball, in case Curry Harden is injured or something, and someone is on the bench.
Beverley and Danny Green are too functional, and then the rest is a forward, too many forwards are good, but there must always be a point guard, and you can't always George and Hayward Butler and they have to control the ball.
Then with the 14th pick in the second round, the Knicks successfully selected center Nikola Jokic from Serbia.
This was sprayed half to death by Chinese netizens.
The Raptors sign that Teck Drew helped the Knicks get two years ago was replaced by this big fat man with no athletic ability???
Because Jokic was beaten by Zhou Qi in the International Youth Championship, Zhou Qi, you don't want this big fat with shortcomings before????
Mr. Pu and the others are all confused, what are you choosing him for?? Fish
Jokic is the only man in this draft who doesn't have a muscle in his body, but Jiang Chao also went backstage to invite him and Dinwiddie to drink Coke, which is a treatment, according to Curry, the class of 09 does not have this treatment.
"Oh, can I really drink it!" The fat man's eyes were straight, and now he was still such a clear and innocent teenager, and his two brothers standing next to him were also like minions in front of Jiang Chao.
"Yes, drink."
Jiang Chao smiled and drank first, Jokic and the DVD were also opened, and the two of them toasted with the passing boss who had won 4 consecutive championships, and his face was full of admiration and anticipation for the future.
For them, being chosen by Jiang Chao is an honor!
It doesn't matter what your level is, you have the resume of being selected by Jiang Chao in the NBA draft, and you will have food in this life, because they are Jiang Chao who chose men.
Of course, the pressure is definitely even greater, which means that every moment from now on is in the spotlight, especially Jokic, who directly said that he will lose weight. Fish
"Just train well, you don't have to lose weight."
Jiang Chao didn't say much, because in his opinion, Teacher Yue was the core of the Knicks who would replace Master Huo in the future.
And Mr. Yoo has never been a man who relies on muscles.
It's all about brains and big fat!
When the time comes, the combination of Mr. + Goebel will be enough.
Although this combination has not won the championship in later generations, Jiang Chao of the Knicks in the later stage doesn't want to win the championship or anything, it is okay to have traffic and highlights, and then win the championship if they can win the championship, it doesn't matter if they don't win the championship.
The Knicks are glamorous enough, and there's nothing wrong with a quiet break out again, and the cake is also worth someone else's food, isn't it. Fish
Watching Jokic shout DVD Big Brother is like, think about it, it seems that Dinwiddie has no achievements in the future, but Jokic is a big teacher.
Jiang Chao's main thing is to treat him as the team's inner core and lubricant!! Dior will retire after another 1-2 years, and then the inside line will depend on the hands of the teacher.
Before Jiang Chao crossed, Jokic had already been elected 202
1-2022 Regular Season MVP.
This is the second year in a row that he has been elected, the 12th player in history to do so.
Previously, when Embiid came back, the official website posted that Embiid was the MVP, but the result was regrettable, Embiid won the scoring title but missed this award, and may not even be able to win it for a while.
But in any case, Jokic deserves his name, he still supported the team to make the playoffs despite the season reimbursement of the other two core players of the Nuggets, and his stats are also very good, and he deserves the MVP award.
In the playoffs, although the Nuggets were swept by the Warriors' 4-1 gentlemen, Jokic faced a tight defense, averaging 31 points, 13.2 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.6 steals per game, with a shooting rate of 57.5%. Fish
And in 2023, Teacher Yue may be the MVP for a second time, and netizens have begun to hack.
But now Jiang Chao in 2014 chose him not because he was an MVP, but because he could play.
The Knicks only need men who "can" play.
In fact, Jokic is very inspirational, he is the only second-round pick among the players in history to win the MVP, let alone the superstar of the two-time MVP.
In the past, there were many European players who were very good, such as Ginobili who was also at the end of the second round, Parker's pick was not high, and Brother Alphabet was only the 15th pick.
This is because there are two risks associated with selecting European players.
First, the leagues they play in Europe are different from the NBA in terms of size and rules, and coupled with cultural differences, many European players are not adapted to the environment after coming to the NBA. Fish
The more famous is the "European Kobe" Spanonollis selected by the Rockets, who only played for one year and then quit the NBA and returned to Europe.
And don't look at the Spurs and Mavericks international players, they also tried and made mistakes with many players.
Second, European players may not play at all because they have a solid team position in their local league and are paid more than the NBA's base salary, plus they are close to home.
Therefore, although many international players in history have been selected, they have never been to the NBA from beginning to end, isn't this the case with Wang Zhelin in China in his previous life?
It's been 6 years since I was drafted by the Grizzlies, and I don't mean to challenge the NBA at all.
However, in this life, he has averaged 6+6 per game in the Grizzlies, and he has the taste of McDonald's genius high school students.
Jokic's situation is even more peculiar, when scouts notice him, it can be said that there is no advantage at all, the players are all perfect muscles, Jokic is fat and fat, his former coach said he can drink 2 liters of Coke a day. Fish
But Jokic has also shown his own unique side, reading the game and controlling the tempo.
So although he doesn't have any particularly good talent, he won't be defeated, the Spurs and the Mavericks are ready to be selected, but Jiang Chao used the Raptors to sign Hu.
In the previous life, the Nuggets chose because the league Jokic played in at the time was only an unknown small league, and no matter how good the data and performance were, it would not be recognized, so the 29 teams ignored Jokic, and the Nuggets also had the mentality of giving it a try.
After selecting Jokic, he also let him continue to practice for another year, and lost weight before officially going to the NBA.
After the Nuggets' main center Nurkic was injured, Jokic got a chance and quickly became @
Rocket Fans:
"The Great Demon King who abused him back then is waiting for you in the rocket!! See you at Summer League!"
Knicks Fans:
"Can you play your big demon in the preseason?? A rookie who doesn't have any time at all!"
"Just look at the looks to know that there is a gap in IQ."
The Knicks chose Ding Yan Yuhang with the 60th pick, Ding Shen!! Fish
This time, the Knicks themselves did not sign a contract, but gave the Mavericks a two-way contract of 5 million for 3 years in the form of sign-and-trade + cash compensation, and the Mavericks gave Xiaoding a two-way contract of 5 million for 3 years.
Everything is developing in a good direction for Chinese players, and Jiang Chao helped him achieve the unfulfilled dream of Xiaoding in his previous life!!
Since then, China has Yi Jianlian, Li Kaier, Wang Zhelin, Zhou Qi, Ding Yanyuhang...... Five players playing in the NBA! Just one set of @ starter rhythm!!
"The godfather of the Chinese men's basketball team is exerting his power every year!!"
"This year's Super God Cup is also good-looking, I think it's better than the NBA."
"Just kidding, super BA!! Now the top 100 super BA in the country are all hot, they all represent a city, the Northwest Wolf South China Tiger or something, and the talented high school students are !!emerging one by one."
"The pomp and circumstance in "Slam Dunk" did not appear in Neon, but appeared in the Celestial Empire, thank you to the Super God Cup, thank you Jiang Chao!!" Fish
"I really love Nix and Jiang Chao so much, I will always support him!"
"If you don't say that he is the godfather of contemporary basketball, he is too discerning!!"
