Chapter 423 2005 NBA Free Agency Market(2/2)
You may not believe it if you say it. When they played halftime, Doncic played directly with them.
Of course, Sun Hao did not forget to give him a small meal.
It's a superstar embryo, but when Sun Hao was tricked like this, he was the rhythm of dominating the NBA when he was about to debut.
Others don't know the achievements of Doncic in history. They just think this child is talented and a bit fun.
Of course there is that name.
"Lukaluka!"
This is very happy to shout.
Just as Sun Hao started his training camp, the NBA free market officially opened.
On the first day, various oral agreements were made, and the first gear of the big fish left completely.
The beginning of the century is unlike the future. When the stars return to their freedom, they have to meet. After making up suspense, they announce where they are going. At this time, the stars' parent team still has a strong sense of belonging.
Of course, there is another important reason. Under the existing labor-management agreement, players can get longer contracts in their parent team and have more total salary.
Ray Allen was the first to renew his contract with Supersonics for 5 years and 85 million.
Then Reed and the Bucks reached a 6-year, 90 million maximum salary contract.
This contract also attracted a wave of heated discussions among fans in the forum.
Who would have thought that this second round pick who participated in the trial in Chicago with Sun Hao would be the first player to sign a maximum salary contract after Sun Hao.
You should know that even Martin signed with the Nuggets before, only the maximum salary was the second time.
Then, O'Neal.
O'Neal also reached a five-year contract of 100 million, of which the last year is the player option.
This contract is the same as O'Neal's contract to renew the Heat in history.
But what you have to consider is O'Neal's performance last season, which is one level better than the Heat's performance in the same period of history.
During the negotiations, O'Neal had made obvious concessions for the team.
According to this calculation, O'Neal's salary is more than 5 million yuan less than last season, and the increased salary cap is about the same as the salary increase of players on the team.
By this calculation, even if the Lakers only pay the same luxury tax as last season, the Lakers have an additional 5 million in salary space.
Considering the benefits brought by the championship last season, Kupchek, a player under 10 million, can sign without blinking.
In addition, the Bulls also reached a 6-year, 70 million contract extension with Chandler.
This contract is not small, but it is 5 million less than in history.
The reason is also very simple. The Bulls in this period of history have been a playoff team, but now they are not.
As for why he signed, it is better to understand. Chandler and Yi Jianlian's partnering effect, both inside and outside, had a very good chemical reaction in the second half of last season.
Even if they did not have a good win in the free market in the end, Paul Gal's combination of inside double towers can still occupy a place in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Even if Klaus can open his eyes like Sun Hao, when Granger plays, this will be a standard championship team.
In addition, several veterans also signed contracts soon.
The Lakers signed a 2-year and 6 million contract with Christie and a 3-year and 10 million contract with Horry. Both of the heroes of last season's championship were rewarded.
Mutombo also reached a two-year, 5.5 million contract extension with the Wizards.
Although the Wizards did not win the championship last season, the team showed good chemistry, and Mutombo also completed Yao Ming's substitute task well, and this contract renewal was expected.
The Lakers did not sign a newcomer on the first day, but there were many rumors.
For example, El Davis, Tony Kukoc, etc.
Rumors are not groundless, these veterans and champion teams are linked every year.
Especially Kukochi, because he went out in Europe like Sun Hao, and had worked as a teammate with Sun Hao before, many people think it is a high probability that he will sign the Lakers.
However, Sun Hao, who has been paying attention to free market trends, knows that these are really just rumors.
First, these veterans really can't play anymore, and the Lakers' signing them is not very meaningful. Second, the most important thing for the Lakers in the summer is to sign a starting power forward and a substitute center.
People will be divided into the main and secondary things when doing things. Before that, they will not use veterans to fill in the 15-person list.
Sun Hao's training camp continues, and Louis Williams and David Lee both left the training camp to participate in the summer league one after another.
News about the free market continues.
The most eye-catching thing is the sign-in and then exchange between Joe Johnson and the Hawks.
The Hawks gave Boris Dior and before the first round draft in 2006 and 2008, they traded with the Suns to get Joe Johnson, who signed a new contract of 70 million for four years and 70 million.
Some people may ask why the Hawks don't sign directly.
The answer is that Joe Johnson's rookie contract has just expired, and the Suns, as the parent team, have the right to birds to match anyone's contract.
Because there are already many talented players in the team, the Suns' attitude is to keep Joe Johnson without good chips, and if there is any pressure to reduce salary.
This is also a win-win deal in history. After Joe Johnson went to the Eagles, he became a generation of Eagles King, while Dior wireless fits into the bombardment tactics and shines after he arrives at the Sun.
Gerald Wallace and the Bobcats reached a three-year, 16 million contract.
Some people may ask why Sun Hao doesn't recommend that the Lakers sign Wallace.
This principle is also very simple. Sun Hao will not take the initiative to make this suggestion. He always gives advice when the management asks him for it.
This is actually a sensitive topic involving players' interference in management.
Active and passive are very different anywhere.
Moreover, at this time, Gerald Wallace had not fully demonstrated his talent, and the Lakers did not have the time and space to train him.
And, his playing style is not that good with O'Neal.
Speaking of matchmaking, on the fourth day after the free market opened, Sun Hao saw a rumor that he thought was the most likely to be with the Lakers:
Chapter completed!
