i'm really an insider

Chapter 683 Chapter 680: This person was crippled at a young age (4.3K begging tickets)
Braised Dan's body deteriorates year after year, and so does Paul Allen's body.

He is now spending every day in chemotherapy and has no intention of managing the team.

Judy Allen also has no intention of managing the team. She only cares about her brother's health and her own business now.

As for the Trail Blazers, Judy gave an instruction: don't lose money, and keep it!

Translated into adult words: I want the horse to run, but I don't want the horse to eat grass.

Patterson is very difficult to do, what does it mean to keep going?

The Trail Blazers reached the Western Conference semifinals this season. In Patterson's view, keeping potential players and making proper reinforcements can hit the championship.

Because next season, the GDP in the West will be one year older, and it will be very difficult for them to defend their title.

On the east side, where is the second part of Mousse going? The second part has not yet ended, and the east is in chaos.

Taking advantage of this chaotic world to do things, it is not impossible to succeed.

But all of this can only be done under the premise of spending money.

However, Judy doesn't understand basketball, she only understands statistics.

The Miami Heat won the championship in 2006, they didn't pay the luxury tax, right?
2006 too far away?
In other words, this year, the Spurs won the championship, and they didn't pay the luxury tax!

We can't beat the Spurs yet!
I don't ask you to win the championship, as long as you maintain your current achievements.On this basis, it is not too much not to pay luxury tax, right?

Patterson has one head and two bigs, because if he wants to maintain the current lineup, he will already have to spend a lot of money.

On Thompson's side, although he has not yet become a top combat force, he has already seen his potential.

Therefore, he will definitely seek a maximum salary extension.

But the problem is that Curry is already a maximum salary, and then he has to renew Green and Matthews.

Both Thompson and Jebao's 15-year contracts expired.

Jiebao also performed very well this season, which makes people look forward to it.For a young man with such potential, the last thing he lacks is a big contract.

Therefore, Thompson and Jebbo will be snapped up next summer.

If you don't prepare enough bullets, you may bleed profusely.

So this summer, Patterson was very helpless, basically unable to make any big moves.

Thompson also rejected the Trail Blazers' proposal to renew his contract slightly below the maximum salary. It can be seen that he still wants to test the free agent market.

Yes, Thompson is a good player.

He has a good personal relationship with Curry, he also likes the Trail Blazers, and can even accept a supporting role.

But Thompson's head is very clear, he knows this is a business alliance.

All these compromises must be based on the maximization of interests.

Now he may indeed only be worth a contract slightly below the maximum salary.But next year's him may not be at this price.

The fact is that Thompson, who has never changed teams in the original history, has never accepted a salary cut.

The reason why he has been playing for the Warriors has nothing to do with loyalty.

In the first contract after four years as a rookie, the Warriors, who had no economic pressure at the time, directly renewed the contract with Thompson with a maximum salary.

And what everyone talks about most is the summer of 19.

In the summer of 19, the Warriors' Galaxy battleship was facing disintegration, because no one wanted to cut their salaries and stay together.

Curry refused to take a pay cut, and Thompson refused to take a pay cut.

Neither Curry nor Thompson did anything wrong. You must know that Curry in the original history did not even get a maximum salary contract before that.

As the unanimous MVP, if the third contract continues to cut salary, isn't this nonsense.

At that time, all Warriors fans pinned their hopes on Thompson.Only when he takes the initiative to cut his salary can the Warriors' lineup be preserved.

However, Thompson didn't do that.Although he said that he hoped to play in the Warriors until he retired, he rejected the Warriors' early contract extension with a lower than the maximum salary, and wanted to test the free agent market.

Therefore, if Durant didn't leave that year, then Thompson might have left, and he must have made such mental preparations himself.

Therefore, Thompson has always been a person with a clear head.

He is willing to be loyal, willing to sacrifice for the team, and willing to support the big guys around him.

But in terms of basic interests, Thompson will never give in.

Not only Thompson, but most players in the league are actually like this, including those representative figures of one person, one city.

One person, one city, one of the representative figures of the Lakers, loyal enough, right?
But how many people remember that in order to force the Lakers, he wandered around wearing a Bulls jersey all day long?

If the Lakers hadn't robbed Gasol in the original history, and if the Lakers hadn't robbed Chairman Yao in this history, Chatter might have gone to Chicago to be Jordan's successor.

The story of Duncan and the Spurs is also interesting, right? The No. 21 rookie is well-known far and wide, a typical representative of one person, one city.

But in fact, if it weren't for the then Magic coach Rivers having a brain twitch and rejecting Duncan's request to take his family on an away flight, maybe the idiot would really join the Magic.

That's Duncan + McGrady + Hill, the picture is too beautiful to imagine.

If there is no injury, the finals may not be a battle between yellow and blue every year.

Lao Li's operation of "unwilling to pay for the chartered flight and miss the number one forward in history" is indeed a hell.

Of course, this is not the first time Magic Tube has engaged in underworld operations.

When renewing Shaq's contract that year, the Magic foolishly published a vote in a local newspaper in Orlando, asking the local people whether O'Neal was worth a $[-] million contract.

In the final vote, 91% of the people thought O'Neill was worthless.

In this way, a legend of Mr. O'91 was created, Shaq was let go, and their Jordan successor Hardaway was embraced.

Facts have proved that this Jordan has no signs of human-to-human transmission!
And until now, some people have suspected that the 91% of the votes for Shaq that are not worth [-] million were all voted by undercover fans in Los Angeles!

Therefore, missing Duncan or something is pediatrics.

Let's talk about a big cousin Lillard, Lillard in the original history is simply synonymous with loyalty.

But in fact, every time his contract expires, renewing his contract with the Blazers is his best choice.

He is not like Mousse, who left for Miami, and Du Xiaoshuai, who joined when he couldn't beat him. They were both at the MVP level before leaving their original teams, true superstars.

Their careers have reached a stage where they have won various honors.A stage where everything can be thrown away except for the champion.

And Lillard, to put it bluntly, he does not have such strength.In addition to the championship, he still has honors to pursue and room for improvement.

To go to other teams, he will either cut his salary or be the second and third.

Therefore, the big cousin just made the choice that is most beneficial to him, and by the way, he also won a reputation of loyalty.

Therefore, loyalty is also based on the protection of basic interests.

In a business alliance, talking about pure loyalty is not like a child pretending to be a housekeeper.

It is completely reasonable for Thompson not to renew his contract with the Blazers in advance.

In order to make room for next year, Patterson had to let go of Matthews, who was overpriced.

Matthews performed well after his comeback last season and is still a top 3D player in the league.

But now in this league, the most valuable players are 3D players.

As soon as Matthews' contract expired, he was dumbfounded.

Because the offers of many teams far exceeded his expectations!

How valuable is it to co-author me now?
Ever since, Matthews switched to the Mavericks. 4 million in four years, how can Patterson afford it.

Matthews probably didn't even think that one day, he could become a person with an annual salary of tens of millions.

As the general manager of the Trail Blazers for so many years, it was the first time that Patterson felt the troubles caused by life constraints.

As soon as Matthews was sent away, Huang Ama also packed her luggage and got on the plane to San Antonio.

He is not because of money, but because of the main position.

Green has been playing well in recent years, but because of Jebao and Thompson, Green has no chance to start at all.

People go to the top. Although Green started from the Development League, it stands to reason that he has already been very successful.

But at this point, the original requirements must not be used as the standard.

Ever since, Green chose a team that promised to give him a starting position and still compete for the championship.

4 million in 4500 years, Green left San Antonio!

Old Thief: Come on, come and build a new dynasty with me.I will start for you, and you and Kawaii will hit the door with two ghosts, and we will be able to successfully defend the title!

The last thing Patterson wants to see is for his players to go to a direct competitor's team.

But there is no way, players have the right to choose.

Moreover, Green didn't leave because of money, but it was even more difficult to deal with.

The only gratification is that Gasol renewed his contract with the Trail Blazers at an ultra-low price of 3 million for 2300 years and will continue to stay!

Gasol is not a person who particularly values ​​money, after all, his family is really not short of money.

Compared with money, my sister-in-law hopes to play for a team that can win and play comfortably.

In the original history, he left the Lakers to join the Bulls in 14 years. In fact, the Lakers gave a bigger contract than the Bulls.

But because he was put on the shelves by the Lakers twice in three days, and it became more and more uncomfortable to play with the Lakers, so he chose to look elsewhere.

But in the Blazers, my sister-in-law didn't have so many troubles, and the Blazers never had the idea of ​​trading Gasol, and the two sides cooperated very happily.

So he resolutely chose to renew his contract.

However, there is one thing to say, Gasol is no longer the player who can change the outcome of the game.

Renewing Gasol's contract and leaving an old hero behind, the Trail Blazers fans are of course happy.

But this signing is not of great help to the team.

Garnett also decided to renew with the Blazers for another year at a low price. After all, this is where he won the championship, and he still has feelings.

However, like his sister-in-law, the wolf king who is one year older has limited help to the team.

Last season, the inside defense of the two Gao Laohuan partners was already very difficult.

He was blasted to the brim by Master Huo, and was bullied by the rookie power forward of the Spurs.

It's impossible to get better when you're a year older.

The Blazers' original dynastic lineup inevitably began to fall apart.

This is something that can't be helped, the NBA is like this.

Under today's rules, almost no team can guarantee to maintain the exact same lineup every year.

Things were going on in the offseason, but Wayne didn't have the heart to watch them.

To be honest, he has rarely cared about NBA affairs in recent years, except for occasionally showing his face in the Rose Garden to watch the game.

Wayne now ah, bah!Director Wei is now fighting for the honor of the national team.

"Director Wei, Director Wei, how did you do this fantasy dance move, let's demonstrate it again." The king and other young players surrounded Wayne with smiles on their faces.

"I'll only do it once, watch it, and pay attention to the number of turns I make." Wayne said, imitating James, holding the basketball for two turns, and then easily hooking the ball in.

Well, Wayne can do a fart dream dance!
He's one-shot turnaround jumpers and hooks in the post.

But as an Olympic champion and a senior, it is enough for Wayne to fool the young man.

"Oh, amazing!"

"I'll go, Director Wei is so coquettish, I really want to learn!"

"To learn technology, you still have to learn from Director Wei!"

Then, a group of young players followed suit.

Director Gong looked at the crowd of teasers circling around on the court, and swallowed his saliva.

This Nima.
One dares to teach and the other dares to learn!

Learn a little trick every day?
Ah Lian, who was practicing on the sidelines, also laughed. Director Wei is teasing you, each of you is quite serious in learning.

Wayne looked at the group of silly young players and gave a smirk.

Get closer to them now, and let them relax first.

At that time, I, Gao Dewei, will let you know what it means to make friends with elbows!
Wayne's goal is simple, make this team tough, tough from the inside out.

To be honest, in such a short amount of time, if you want to say how much Wayne can improve their technology, that is a plot only in fantasy novels.

But to change their temperament and game attitude, Wayne thinks it can still be done.

After training today, Wayne returned to the locker room with everyone talking and laughing.

Needless to say, Wayne is probably the closest member of the coaching staff to the players.

After Ah Lian returned to the locker room, he took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and then uttered "Fuck!"
"What's the matter? I was taken aback." Wayne leaned over to Ah Lian to see what news he had received.

"President Ludan's condition is serious. He said that he can't get off the ground without crutches. Looking at his young age, how could he be so serious?"

"Uh" Wayne looked away, then why are you looking at me?Could it be that my golden iron elbow can have such power?
Don't tell me, it really has something to do with Wayne's iron elbow.

Wayne gave Potato the elbow at the beginning, which left Potato with serious sequelae.

Then, in the first year of taking office, the new broadcasting contract could not be won for a long time, which put a lot of pressure on the marinated egg, and the blood pressure soared for a long time.

Once blood pressure soars, it is easy to have a recurrence of cerebral infarction.

Once the cerebral infarction is severe, it is easy to lose the ability to exercise.

This is so... really wish come true?

Next, you won't just collapse on the bed, right?
No way?Impossible?
"He is in such a serious condition now, can he still be the president?" Wayne asked Ah Lian casually.

I can't participate in a draft in the future and sit in a wheelchair.

"Now it is temporarily managed by the vice president, but there are many reports that David Stern may return. After all, a new broadcasting contract is about to be signed."

"Yeah, that's great. Uh, I mean it's a pity, a pity.

Hey, you said that this braised egg is useless at a young age.Oh no, I don't mean to hope that others will be abolished. Don't get me wrong. "

Alian: ...

Wayne accidentally told the truth. If Stern could really come back, Wayne would be considered a merit.

Stern is sick of it now, not long after his retirement, and he has to take over this mess again.

To tell the truth, Stern also thought about letting go, anyway, he has retired.

but.
He really couldn't bear to see the business empire he built with his own hands in crisis!

The next new broadcast contract is too important and must be handled properly.

So, he decided to go out again!At least until the new contract is signed, he will be in charge of the league.

And his next priority is to stimulate the ratings.

Next season, he will try his best to make the game exciting first.

And if that still doesn't motivate the broadcasters.
Boss Si also has a killer move that may not be [-]% successful, but if it succeeds, it will definitely shock the entire league!
