In early July, Wang Jun did not forget to ask Hayes about the management's tone.

Paxson expressed his willingness to provide Hayes with a two-year contract of 5 million, and the second year player option, and he can jump out if he plays well.

This is the same as the Bulls signed Sangela contract before, but Hayes is a free agent, and it depends on what price other teams offer.

Wang Jun called Hayes to reassure him, thinking that this little brother would definitely stay. Hayes' offense was too bad. What team would go crazy and give him a high salary to poach him?

As a result, just one day later, the Rockets offered Hayes a three-year, $10 million contract.

Paxson's plan doesn't want to sign a long-term contract. It depends on whether Hayes can develop a shooting. If not, he will not be worth a high salary.

A player with no attack power, no height, and a single role is too high for three years. Moreover, Hayes was still a rookie last season and only played for half a season.

Hayes wanted to make more money, so he accepted the Rockets' contract. He didn't even hire an agent, so he got a lawyer and got the matter done.

Paxson made a quick decision and decided not to match and let Hayes go to the Rockets.

Wang Jun said goodbye to another teammate.

Dalius Sangela, a big man who can shoot, executes his contract for next season. Marik Allen has one more year left in the contract, and the team is not short of flesh shields. Allen is just a little worse than Hayes' pick-and-roll defense, bigger and slower moving. His annual salary of 1.8 million next season is very cheap.

Rashad Lewis focuses on the No. 4 position, with Chandler, David Lee, and the Bulls have as many as 5 insiders. This is still the premise that veterans and new players join, and the Bulls are not short of insiders.

After the Bulls introduced Lewis, other teams also began to take action, and several big deals appeared as soon as the free market opened.

The Hornets signed Ben Wallace 54 million in four years.

Da Ben won the big contract as he wished, and although it was lower than expected, the Pistons had no idea to keep it. For a blue-collar player who had a bad offense, no free throws, and was still in the decline, the contract was too high.

The Pistons have been eliminated in the second round of the playoffs for several consecutive years and are ready for reconstruction. Letting Ben Wallace be their first step.

The Pistons then dug out the Spurs' inside blue-collar Mohammed to make up for the vacancy that Big Ben left.

After finishing the Big Book, the Hornets signed Kings forward Peja Stojakovic for 64 million in five years. They were one of the most affordable teams last season. Sure enough, there were big moves in the summer.

The Hornets formed the inside lineup of Ben Wallace, David West, and PJ Brown. Paul, Stojakovic, Mason, Bobby Jackson and Rasubatler had great strength in the industry.

As long as there are no large-scale injuries, the Hornets will definitely have the strength to compete in the playoffs next season, and their starting lineup can compete with any team.

The only drawback is that the team's swingman JR Smith, who has a strong physical fitness, chose to leave and join the Nuggets.

The conflict between JR and the head coach broke out in his second season, when the Hornets were swaying between New Orleans and Oklahoma due to Hurricane Katrina. They haven't talked once in a few months, and JR's playing time and statistics have dropped significantly, although the team has more Chris Paul.

When Byron Scott refused to let JR play when the Hornets were full of wounded soldiers, JR broke the news to the Pika Cloud Times that his head coach was too "arrogant" and complained that they lacked communication and even hoped that the team would trade themselves.

JR roared in an interview: "I'm not surprised at all when I sit on the bench because he is so arrogant that he can't win but put personal grudges first. Now everyone has to do something, and I won't develop under such circumstances. When you can't communicate with your leader, there is a problem. When you come early and leave late during training, it's useless, then I don't know what's useful. I can't do anything anymore. I've tried to call him and meet him several times, but it doesn't work. In all the teams I've been to before, I can be friends with the head coach."

Scott was questioned again. When he was on the Nets, the whole team wanted him to get out, and the target he suppressed was the famous Wang Jun. Now he exchanged JR for a second-round draft pick in the Nuggets. Many media are curious about what level JR will play in the future.

Because JR has the physical fitness to become a star, many people are ready to watch Scott's lively. Now that the Hornets' lineup cannot be played, it can only prove that he is not capable.

No matter what the outside world says, the Hornets boss is optimistic about Scott and has completed the contract renewal with him in Xiatian, as long as he is not fired, he will remain in office until 2009.

The Knicks made a big deal with the Mavericks, exchanging Jamal Crawford for Jerry Starkhouse.

Since Francis joined last season, the Knicks have been overcrowded on the outside, and they all need to hold the ball. Crawford has reduced playing time, his defense is not good, and he also likes to shoot in a flash. Thomas decided to exchange him for the regular No. 2 position.

With the same salary between the two, Starkhouse will be suspended for 9 games next season without paying a salary. After returning, he can provide the team with the team's current lack of confrontational ability.

As for whether the league will be unhappy when poaching Starkhouse, it is not a problem for the Knicks.

They can no longer get worse, and it will be difficult for them to make the playoffs next season. Starkhouse only has one year left for a contract. If they don't renew their contract next season, they will at least have a lot of salary space and pay less luxury taxes. This is Thomas' plan.

The Mavericks were also very happy. They traded for a No. 2 position with good scoring ability and also dealt with the thorns, but their strength has increased but not decreased.

The Mavericks also traded Daniels for the Pacers' shooting power forward Clohill, found a suitable substitute for Nowitzki, and cut Van Horn.

Not too surprised, Van Horn can retire in basketball at the age of 31.

After the lineup is adjusted, the Mavericks will make a comeback next season and strive for the championship.

The Clippers gave Tim Thomas, who scored good numbers in the Suns, a four-year, 24 million contract.

Many people were drunk when they saw this news. Someone actually wanted this gangster? And the contract was so big? Coach Bulls would rather let Sangaira start than to use him.

Thomas' success has set an example for many players, that is, if you want to make money, you must first find a good agent.

The Clippers had no choice but to be poached by the Lakers.

The Lakers, who have been clamoring for lack of outside attack power, gave Radmanovic a five-year contract worth $31 million, and successfully strengthened the small forward position.

Kobe is very happy about this, thinking that Radmanovic is not inferior to his fellow villager Stojakovic, and is an excellent big pitcher. The Lakers will definitely make a breakthrough in the new season.

The Spurs also have a deal, they dumped Nestrovic's 6-year, 45 million bad contract, and exchanged Matt Bonner and Eric Williams from the Raptors.

Spurs general manager Buford said happily: "I'm excited about the joining of Eric and Matt, a big man with unique outside shooting ability, who will help us expand our offensive space. Eric gave us rich experience in veterans and strengthened our bench depth at the forward position."

After the trade, the Spurs are also the favorite to win the championship next season, and it is not easy for the Bulls to defend the title.
