When Li Wan heard what Chris Bosh said, he thought he hadn't heard it clearly, and subconsciously: "What? ”

He really didn't think Chris Bosh would have the idea of retiring.

Although he is 34 years old.

You must know that in the just-concluded finals G5, Chris Bosh's data was fixed at 33 points, 12 rebounds and 2 blocks, and the shooting rate was about 50%, which is undoubtedly a supergiant data.

Contributing such data on the stage of the finals, you tell me, ready to retire?

Chris Bosh looked at Li Wan's surprise and said with a wry smile: "Man, I can't help it...... The doctor told me that my blood clot was out of control! Either retire or ......"

"Dragon King" didn't continue, but Li Wan understood what he meant.

However, when Chris Bosh talked about blood clots, Li Wan was no longer so surprised.

It's not very common for players in the league to get blood clots, but it's not that rare.

Judging whether a player can continue his career, and how easy it is to control the blood clot from getting worse, depends on one point: where in the body the blood clot is.

Like "Kevin Durant Jr." Ingram, whose blood clot is in his forearm, this is the type that is easy to control.

And Chris Bosh who appears on the calf is controllable, but not completely controlled, and how long he can play depends on how long he can be controlled.

What the doctor meant was that if you wanted to continue playing, you could, but you still had to come back after a break for most of the season, as you did before, so that the body could recover from the critical point.

But the problem is that Chris Bosh is 33 years old......

It's hard work to get any star to retire at this age and a half and then come back.

This is especially true for Chris Bosh, who has a blood clot.

It is very likely that you will rest for more than half a year, and after your comeback, in order to find your form as soon as possible, you will train hard for a month, and as a result, the well-controlled blood clot will "go berserk" again, which is very likely to happen, and in this case, there is no need to continue to insist.

Life......

Bigger than basketball!

And even if he retires at this time, Chris Bosh doesn't have too many regrets.

In Miami, he became the team's "backstabber", but the next 4 years and 3 championships allowed him to "avenge his grievances", counting the championship rings he won this season, he also won a total of three championship rings in his career, and all of them were obtained as "second masters".

The achievement is not low.

At least it's much better than he used to be.

And the stats from this last game also prove that he can continue to play in this league.

"I didn't go on my own, I just lost to injuries......"

Chris Bosh's words made Li Wan sigh.

Compared to him, Li Wan is so lucky.

However, now Li Wan can be regarded as fully understood.

Why Chris Bosh looks so tired in this round of the finals;

Why did he deliberately greet Li Wan before the start of G5, wanting to have more shots in the fifth game......

I don't want to compete with Anthony Davis, because this is the last game of his career!

"Man, you've left behind a curtain call that proves you!"

Li Wan patted Chris Bosh on the shoulder, and the "Dragon King" also had a smile on his face, and he also very much agreed with this.

33 points and 12 rebounds, couldn't have been better......

The championship award is over, but the "sleepless nights" that belong to the Columbians have just begun.

Well......

The "sleepless nights" for New Yorkers have only just begun.

Li Wan was interviewed after the game.

He appeared in front of the media with the championship trophy and the finals MVP trophy, and before he could speak, the media people in front of him were busy first, and the sound of "click" kept ringing.

This shot is definitely going to be recorded.

Because this is not only Columbus's first championship, but also a championship in which Li Wan officially surpassed Michael Jordan, the "God of Basketball", in the number of championships.

In fact, there are more championships than there are Michael Jordan, but very few.

Frank Ramsay, Robert Horry, Jim Roskatov have 7 titles, Sam Jones has 10 and Bill Russell has 11......

Of course, this is the original time and space, and now we have to add a Kwame Brown who has already won 7 crowns and is about to 8 crowns!

Except for these six people, there is no one in this league before Li Wan who has more championships than Michael Jordan, which is at best the same.

And if you count the boss champion who won the championship MVP trophy, then among these 5 people, I am afraid that Bill Russell can compete with Michael Jordan.

There is no doubt about Bill Russell's ability, and naming the "Finals MVP" trophy after him already shows his gold content, but there really was no such thing as a championship MVP in those days.

At the same time, Bill Russell is a typical offensive and defensive strong, and the highest number of rebounds is often his rebound, and in the "eight-in-a-row" Celtics, the average points per game in the Finals are much higher than him.

Therefore, Bill Russell is bound to win a few "second championships".

Because this "eight-in-a-row" has too many Hall of Famer players.

In addition, the league as a whole was not on the right track at that time, and the overall level of the league was up for debate, and what was even more exaggerated was that the "cardinals" controlled most of the transactions in the league, as long as it was the player he wanted, he would definitely be able to get it, and there was a lot of controversy in terms of competitiveness......

This also makes it impossible for Michael Jordan to have a clear gap with Bill Russell in this regard.

Of course, from the dialectical point of view of "your honor is honor, isn't my honor honor", you have no problem putting Bill Russell first in history.

The name "Lord of the Rings" is not called for nothing. Isn't it all about fighting this league for the championship?

It can also be seen from this that why the "boss champion" has become a rigid criterion for judging a player's historical status, which is to evaluate these things first, and then evaluate those bits and pieces.

After all, a star who is so great at this stage is really compared to the data, who doesn't have the data that others can't play, you are the "No. 1 all-time scoring champion", isn't it awesome that others are "the No. 1 all-time rebounding king"?

Moreover......

Who's there is nothing more than accumulating a lot of data!

Not to mention......

Even if you have 40,000 points, it is more than 1,000 points more than 38,000 points more than the second place, is this a world of difference?

If you want to talk about the gap, "two consecutive championships" and "three consecutive championships" are called gaps, and one "two consecutive championships" and two "three consecutive championships" are called gaps!

As for the accumulated data......

One "scoring champion" and ten "scoring champions" are called the gap!

Li Wan now surpasses Michael Jordan in hard honors, plus some "Michael Jordan does not have data honors" on his body, it is not an exaggeration to say that he has surpassed Michael Jordan......

As for completely squeezing Michael Jordan into the "second" position, it's a bit too much.

But......

At the age of 29, he has surpassed the "God of Basketball", what more bicycles!

A reporter asked Li Wan how he felt, and Li Wan still said the same words when he spoke as the MVP of the finals: "This is the beginning, but not the end......"

In and out of his words, his ambition is revealed.

He doesn't just want such a small transcendence, but a big leap forward like Aaron Iverson did in the '01 Finals!

Another reporter asked an interesting topic: "Man, so you didn't think about retirement?" ”

Like Ross Barkley's thoughts between games, it's a very real question:

When you don't have an opponent in front of you, or if the opponent who is still in front of you is already beyond your reach, the motivation will naturally wane, and in this case, retirement will naturally be mentioned.

Although Li Wan is still very young, he has achieved enough to stop running.

Just kidding, when Michael Jordan won a "triple championship", he felt that there was no opponent in this league, and what about Li Wan now? A "4 consecutive championships", a "2 consecutive championships", a total of 7 championships, but Michael Jordan is more than Michael Jordan at that time, some similar thoughts, what's so strange!

However, Li Wan said: "Man, I have just said that this is the beginning, but not the end......"

The reporter asked again: "In your heart, is there already a time to retire?" ”

Li Wan couldn't cry or laugh: "Are you looking forward to my retirement so much?" ”

These words made the audience laugh continuously, and Li Wan said: "I don't have an accurate idea of the future, but one thing I know very well is that I will not use my retirement as a gimmick, when I say that I will retire, it means that it must be a clear point in time." I'm not going to say, maybe retire, I don't know, I could do it, like that, I think it's disrespectful to the fans, I have a lot of fans who love me, so ...... At least for now, I'm still looking forward to next season, and I hope to bring an era to Columbus! ”

This was met with an enthusiastic response from the Columbus correspondent.

No one wants Li Wan to play for a long time more than Columbus, and whether the city can become a new "super first-line" depends on how long Li Wan plays in the NBA!

Although this is not a nationally popular sport like football, it is undeniable that the NBA has a different influence than football in the whole of America and the whole of the world.

This league of cross-generational players can change the status quo of a city's existence!

Columbus......

Proud of Li Wan!

Early the next morning, the news of the Columbus Explorers' victory swept across the United States.

Leewan's name also appeared in the headlines of major media outlets, and this is his 7th crown, and this championship ring allows him to surpass Michael Jordan in the number of championships.

Originally, he had achieved "55 open" with Michael Jordan in "Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong", and now, almost most of the media believe that Li Wan has surpassed Michael Jordan and become the new "goat" of the NBA!

The American "Time" news even made this incident a front-page headline, with a big headline that read:

"The development of the times is that the "new king" is better than the "old king"! 》

The "miracle" you thought of was destined to be broken by an even greater "miracle" in the future. And the record that you think will never be broken, there will eventually be someone on this record, write the first name, even if this record, no matter how difficult, the process of completion, no matter how unimaginable, there will always be such a day! ”

Some media have believed that Li Wan's name will appear in the list of "100 human beings who have changed the perception of the world" in the 21st century.

Columbusians and New Yorkers were extremely excited on this day, and various news about Li Wan could be seen everywhere under the messages of netizens in these two places.

Just the general manager's office at the Grand Nautical Arena, Griffin's smile froze the moment he received a call from Chris Bosh.

"Man, I'm getting ready for retirement, so ...... You've got to prepare!"

Griffin:......

He wanted to roar:

No, big brother, are you playing with me?

Have you forgotten the stats you just played in the final game of the finals?

With such a performance, at the age of 33, isn't it fragrant to continue to follow Li Wan to win the championship?

Retiring so early, can you sleep at night?

But when Griffin knew that Chris Bosh's blood clots were uncontrollable, he was silent again.

That's what it is......

Oh my life!

It seems that there is no rest this summer!

Originally, there were a lot of things going on for Griffin this summer, first of all, Li Wan's contract, which has completed the first three years of the contract, and the last year is a player option, and Li Wan can announce that he will jump out of the contract early and sign a bigger contract.

At present, Li Wan has not announced whether he will jump out or not.

It's just that Li Wan didn't speak, he can't be ignorant, in terms of Li Wan's current alliance status, as well as his contribution to Columbus, his contract of more than 20 million in the last year is really too small. - Columbus generated a GDP of more than 400 billion a year because of the arrival of Li Wan, and the Columbus Cavaliers also made a lot of money, winning championships on the field and making money off the field, do you say more than 20 million?

That's the same reason the league allowed the Bulls to give Michael Jordan a $30 million contract that doesn't count toward the salary cap.

The status of the rivers and lakes, sometimes, must be given a suitable value.

Then Wiggins, who entered the league in 14 years, officially finished the third year of his rookie contract, and gave him a contract extension at the rate of his progress every year, which is also a manifestation of respect!

In addition to these two "big guys" in the team.

After three years with the Cavaliers, Adams, the absolute mainstay of the championship team, also played the final year of his rookie contract, and this summer he became a restricted free agent and needed to negotiate a new contract.

This is the main lineup, and the contract needs to be negotiated.

In the bench lineup, Kwame Brown has taken another 3-year contract and now needs to negotiate a new contract, this guy has nothing to say, although the statistics are not good, and the whole form of this season has begun to decline, but ......

As far as the relationship between him and Li Wan from the Magic team to New York, and then from New York to the Cavaliers and Columbus, it is necessary to continue to give a contract, and at the same time, the number of years cannot be short, otherwise, it will be disrespectful to Li Wan!

Not only that, Barbosa will definitely leave this summer, and how to fill the vacancy after Barbossa's departure after signing these people also needs Griffin to think seriously.

You must know that Li Wan has already spoken, and this championship is not the end, but the beginning......

Even if the current Griffin takes Gilbert's words as a fart, he can't ignore Li Wan's needs.

So this summer, if you can do these things well, Griffin will complete the task with quality and quantity!

The results are now ......

Chris Bosh is actually announcing his retirement!

Suddenly there is such a lack of combat power, how can you let Griffin make up for it!

He had a headache, but in Chris Bosh's situation, he couldn't force it to stay.

The time has come to test whether he can be a good family.

Griffin could only wish Chris Bosh a better and better life in the future, and as soon as he hung up the phone, he called Li Wan and reported the situation to the latter.

Li Wandao: "Man, Chris Bosh told me about this last night, and I wanted to remind you, but after thinking about it, I still think it's better for Chris to tell you about this matter!" ”

The main Chris Bosh has not really been announced, and Li Wan still has a glimmer of hope.

As a result, now, there is no possibility at all.

The good news is that Chris Bosh told Li Wan and Griffin his idea for the first time, and now the 16~17 season has just ended, and the free market is still half a month before it officially opens, and Griffin's situation is not too passive.

Griffin, who accepted the reality, also officially started his summer work, and took advantage of this phone call, he said to Li Wan: "Man, Gilbert wants you to jump out of your current contract, and we will prepare a new contract for you......"

Although Li Wan has only played for the Cavaliers for 3 years, these three years just triggered the "Bird Clause", plus he has been in the league for 10 years, so if Li Wan jumps out of this old contract, then he will get a contract with an annual salary of more than 35 million, Griffin did not grind, and directly gave the maximum 5 years 201 million!

This contract is much lower than Mike Conley's staggering "100 million yuan contract", but Mike Conley's 5-year 250 million contract contains a lot of incentive mechanisms, looking at the annual salary of 50 million, but in fact, Mike Conley finally got more than 30 million last year.

The contract that Griffin offered to Li Wan is also the largest number of contracts that the league can offer at present.

If this contract is signed, Li Wan's annual salary next season will be close to 40 million, which is the highest annual salary in the league in the new season.

It's not that Griffin doesn't want to give Li Wan a reward mechanism, but Rao is the league's salary cap for the next year is around 94 million, and the luxury tax threshold is around 110 million, but ......

This team does have a bit of a lot to renew their contracts in the summer.

Li Wan also knows this.

He didn't think that he had taken all the meat and broth, and that he had to leave some food and drink for his brothers, and that he would be as rich as his own thick rice!

He's not one who says one thing and does another......

So he readily agreed.

To be honest, although it is a 5-year contract of 201 million, Li Wan is not very excited...... It's just the performance fee for filming "Li Wan...... If you compare it with PG1's profit in a year, it can't be compared!

So nearly 40 million, which looks like a lot, but for Li Wan, who has an annual income of more than 100 million, or even almost 250 million, it is really not a big number.

"It was a difficult decision, but after careful consideration, I have decided to end my 14-year career and officially retire this summer!"

On June 12, three days after winning the title, Chris Bosh officially announced his retirement.

This shocked the entire alliance.

It has also managed to dominate most of the sports news headlines.

The New York Times counted Chris Bosh for the first time many accolades in his career: 14 years of service, 11 All-Star Weekend selections, 3 All-Star Teams, 3 championship trophies!

This is already a historical player.

The Columbus media were shocked, and as for Columbus, the fans also ran to Chris Bosh's Twitter for the first time to leave messages, a bunch of crying emojis, expressing their reluctance and surprise.

This thing is really unexpected, obviously three days ago, he was still on the stage of the finals, playing a supergiant performance, but I didn't expect that it was only 3 days, and he actually announced his retirement.

Without you......

Isn't Li Wan missing another "big boost"?

Columbus management later thanked Chris Bosh on the official website for his dedication to the team, and said that he would retire Chris Bosh's No. 1 jersey in the new season.

Although Bosh has only played in the Columbus Explorers for one year, even if he adds his predecessor, he has only played for 3 years, but he has won 2 championship trophies in 3 years, and he is still the second oldest in the team, so he fully deserves this honor.

Sometimes, it's really not about who has been in the country for a long time, no matter how old you are, you can't survive a dominant era, then it's useless to say anything!

Even if you have ten media companies, you can't boast the "best in history" position!

On the contrary, it will cause disgust because of more and more riotous operations, resulting in the current position not being able to be maintained!

Under Chris Bosh's retirement statement, Li Wan left a message: The best partner!

Soon, Chris Bosh left a message: Best brother!

The interrogation caused a lot of interpretation.

And the wave caused by Chris Bosh's retirement announcement is far from that.

Since he officially announced his retirement, the phone calls in Griffin's office have not been heard again, all kinds of phone calls, all kinds of purposes, those who want to trade with Columbus, those who want to come to Columbus, in short, in an afternoon, Griffin's anxiety is gone.

He really didn't expect that after Li Wan won the first championship in Columbus and surpassed Michael Jordan, his influence in this league actually rose to a new height, and now those depressed stars want to come to Columbus and rejuvenate the second spring of their careers.

Like that who, and then like that who......

Such an environment made him feel like the ancient emperor "chose a concubine", which was really conducive to his summer operation.

So......

On the contrary, he was not in a hurry, but first communicated with the Columbus Explorers players whose contracts were about to expire and had expired one by one through the phone.

Because of Li Wan's core leadership in the team, these players did not ask for a sky-high price.

They actually know very well that with Li Wanyou to eat meat, in the championship team, every point they get is priceless, and they are not afraid that there will be no more contracts in the future.

The "champion coach" is not afraid of not having a job, in fact, the "championship puzzle" of the championship team is no less afraid of not having a job!

But any team that needs experienced players in the field, then it will inevitably be excellent to consider these who have entered the Finals and won the championship, especially Kwame Brown, don't look at 35 next year, and now throw it into the free market, it will still be a lot of people there to grab!

If you have qualifications, it is easy to find a job......

At the same time, in a luxury villa in Brooks, Carmelo Anthony, who was becoming more and more rounded, was sitting on the sofa in the living room with a solemn face, his eyes unmoving, looking at the TV in front of him.

It's not the godfather, it's not Lala, it's Chris Bosh's retirement news.

His expression was quite calm, but the constant glint in his eyes showed that his mood was not calm at the moment.

Chris Bosh surprised everyone and Carmelo Anthony by surprise when he suddenly announced his retirement, while he realized that this could be his only chance in his life.

Once Columbus came to a new "second master" who was young, then he really didn't have a chance.

After all, the Columbus Explorers still have a Wiggins stored in the future!

But......

Originally, he wanted to join after the loss of the Columbus Explorers this season, lest he be shouted "We were already champions before you came".

And......

The first person to say this is now also in Columbus's lineup.

Therefore, he was entangled.

Should he let his agent contact the Columbus Explorers......

He was hesitating, but his agent called at this time, and his tone was very impatient: "Dude, you know what? Dwight Howard's agent has pressured management to trade him to Columbus ......"

WTF？

As soon as he heard this, Cameron Anthony, who was originally sitting in a big position, suddenly couldn't help it, stood up impatiently, and the hand holding the mobile phone was also unconsciously forced, testing the endurance of the Apple mobile phone.

He didn't expect that Howard, a thick-eyed and big-eyed man, would have the idea of going to Columbus to "pay tribute" without making a sound!

No way!

He can't continue to think about it, if he continues to think about it, when he finishes making a decision, I'm afraid that Columbus's new lineup has been officially announced.

"Man, in that case, tell Billy King what I'm thinking too, man, ...... I also hope that I can be traded to Columbus! ”

Carmelo Anthony didn't hesitate, he was going to go straight to the stud!

When the agent heard his words, he was a little stunned, although he knew that Carmelo Anthony had the intention of leaving the Nets, but he really didn't expect that Carmelo Anthony's favorite object was actually the Columbus Explorers!

Seashell......

It's a bit of a match for what he knows about Carmelo Anthony.

However, if you think about it, it is probably Chris Bosh who announced his retirement and stimulated this guy.

It was also in 03 that when I entered this league and retired, there were so many All-Star rosters, so many All-Star squads, so many rings......

If the first two items can't make Carmelo Anthony feel envious, then the championship ring is definitely something to his heart, as the league's 6-time All-Star selection, Carmelo Anthony is definitely one of the best scorers of this era, if he finally retires, there is not a championship ring, let alone Carmelo Anthony himself, even others think it is a pity!

From this perspective, it's no surprise that Carmelo Anthony wants to join Columbus.

And......

This is definitely the best opportunity!

In the next three years, Columbus will not need a "second master" more than now!

Today's game, it's really ......

Now, whether the Celtics use up their last bit of luck or the Heat loses their last chance depends on G7.

But no matter what, it's much better than Xidu, at least with more stories to tell.

Finally, there is another sentence, the Celtics are stupider than the coaching staff, and they are the ones who should knock White the most, what about this Nima challenging Nima?
