From today on is the king

Chapter 1392 1391. Five Star Jazz
"Kevin Durant 2013-2014 star card advanced usage method:
The first step: Xiao Erlang who carries the schoolbag: obtains the nickname Liu of the schoolbag;
Step [-]: Obsession with bath water: Choose a popular actress and openly express that you want to drink her bath water;

Step Three: The Hardest Path: Before using it, plan the hardest choice for yourself and announce it to the world. "

When Liu Mang saw this, he instantly didn't want to use the special way of using Durant's star card.

The first step is okay, at most it is a bit of a second.

The second step... This is so simple, Liu Mang felt that if he did that, he would be hung up and beaten by the two girls, and the little Lolita would hate him to death.

The most important thing is the last one, choose the most difficult path...

What exactly is the hardest path?
Durant's most difficult road was to embrace the thigh of the strongest team in the league. It was really difficult to win the championship...

"Boss of the system, are you serious about Durant's most difficult path? When you come to the young master, do you really want to choose the most difficult path?"

Liu Mang couldn't help complaining crazily.

But the most difficult road... What is the most difficult road?
Liu Mang thought about it for a long time, and felt that it is better to throw aside the advanced usage of this star card, anyway, it will not be used for the time being.

With a special way of using it, Liu Mang is reluctant to use the normal 50.00% fit, so the Durant star card, which has been added to 100% fit by a special method, is too wasteful to use in the regular season. It must be used again in the playoffs, so let’s talk about it at that time.

"The advanced usage method is basically related to the special hobbies of the stars, and Durant's hobbies are too weird!"

……

……

On February 2st, in the morning, Liu Mang and San Niu went to the private teacher's classroom and hired a few private teachers. Liu Mang didn't care too much.

Time flies and we are already in the second half of the season.

老鹰队已经打了48场比赛，还剩34场，2月份, 28天时间, 抛开7天的全明星周末暂时中断常规赛，也就是21天12场比赛。

This year's All-Star Weekend is from February 2th to 16th. This year's New Year's Eve is relatively late, on February 18th in BJ's time, which is the 2th in the United States. It happens to be the day of the rookie game, so it doesn't delay things. You can get together with Yao Ming.

In the afternoon, Liu Mang continued to practice shooting in the open-air court at home. The three-pointer with his right hand has been raised to 97, but it is not the end. Durant, who has not yet reached the universe, has 98 three-pointers. Liu Mang is quite motivated.

And let yourself become stronger as much as possible, even if you have a little time, you have to spend time training, mainly because the upcoming schedule is more difficult.

Before the training, Liu Mang looked at the game schedule, and really wanted to go to David Stern with a knife and ask if he stole his rice!
After playing back-to-back home games with the Knicks, the Eagles had a day off and continued their home games on the 2nd.

If you count the last game against the Knicks, the Eagles are on a five-game winning streak,
The Eagles and the Bulls have only played against each other three times this season. The first two games were played away by the Eagles. The last time they met in March was the Eagles' home game.

13天，准确的说是从2号开始到13号，12天的时间打7场比赛。

And after the All-Star Weekend, the Eagles will face the Lakers soon... The first game back from the break, on February 2st, the Eagles and the Lakers will play against each other for the second time this season. The remaining four games will be the Bucks and Nets at home on the 21th and 24th, and the Magic and Celtics away on the 24th and 27th. The opponents in these four games are weaker and relatively easy, but they are 28 games in 5 days...

"Before the All-Star Weekend, he was used to stimulate the enthusiasm of the fans, and after the All-Star Weekend, he was used to continue the enthusiasm of the fans during the All-Star Weekend? Scrappi..."

Liu Mang complained while shooting the ball...

……

Finally, at around five o'clock in the afternoon on the 1st, Liu Mang received a call from Stockton with good news!

After entering February, the buyout negotiations between Grant Hill and the Magic finally reached a consensus.

Grant Hill can afford it, but he can't play with a maximum salary to get to the end of the season. Anyway, he is not losing money, and money is also very important.

But the Magic can't afford it, they want to lower their salaries.

In the end, the two sides reached a consensus. The Magic paid a buyout fee of 260 million dollars and released Grant Hill's contract for the remaining half of the season.

Grant Hill should have received a salary of $34 million for the remaining 830 games. After the buyout, the Magic only needed to pay $260 million, saving $470 million in salary, including the luxury tax, saving a total of $940 million.

940 million is still very important for a team. With the Magic’s average ticket price of $69, it takes more than a dozen home game tickets to earn back. After buying out Grant Hill, the Magic can save almost a quarter of this season’s ticket revenue.

Except for the Lakers, Knicks, and Eagles, the three teams whose ticket prices exceed [-] yuan, other teams cannot make money from ticket sales alone. Most of them lose money and have to rely on broadcast revenue and advertising to survive.

Just when the Eagles received a call from Grant Hill, who said that he would come to Atlanta tonight, sign a contract tomorrow for a physical examination, and wanted to join the Eagles as soon as possible, a big deal came!

……

"The new owner of the Supersonics is crazy!" Little Lori, who knows the ball, began to verbally attack other team managements.

"They might really be crazy..." Liu Mang also felt incredible!

On January 1, the Supersonics’ boss change was submitted to the league. Today, February 23, in yesterday’s league boss vote, the Supersonics officially changed their boss.

Eagles owner Price's cronies when he was young, can't hold on anymore now, so he can only sell the team for $2.2 million. After paying off the debt, there is more than $1 million left, and he continues to be a middle-aged dude.

As soon as the new owner of the Sonics took office, he did a big thing.

The Sonics sent Ray Allen, Danny Fortson and Muhammad Sini a total of 1100 million US dollars in garbage contracts, and got the three expiring contracts of the Jazz's Gordon Kilishek, Matt Harprin, and Ronnie Brewer, as well as the Jazz's two unprotected first-round picks in 2007 and 2009, and the Jazz's two unprotected second-round picks in 2008 and 2009.

Given that the Jazz has four major stars, Deron, Boozer, Kirilenko, and Okur, 100% can enter the playoffs, and the record is very likely to be around the top ten in the league all year round.

The three second rounds are probably in the 40s and 50s.

With such a bargaining chip, plus the expiring contracts of Kirisek and Harprin, Ray Allen won!
Of course, the Jazz are enjoying Deron’s rookie bonus, and Kirilenko and Boozer’s salary bonus of just over $1000 million. The total salary of this season is only $4900 million, and the three expired contracts totaling $1600 million. In addition to their own salary space, Danny Fortson and Muhammad Sidney have more than three years of rubbish contracts, which can be regarded as chips paid by the Jazz.

"Maybe their new boss wants to save money." After thinking about it, Liu Mang only had this reason.

Ray Allen will be 32 years old this summer, but compared to the past few years, Ray Allen's transaction value has risen instead of falling!
At that time, Ray Allen could only switch to the old Payton, but now, because of Liu Mang's relationship, three-pointers are getting more and more attention. Ray Allen doesn't want to give up on the Kings like Peja. Ray Allen's professional attitude has always been very good.

Two first-rounders, together with helping the Sonics digest the two 4-year-over-middle-level junk contracts signed last summer, and three expiring contracts that can be used to clear up salary space, although compared to last summer when the Bulls got Garnett and the Cavaliers got Chandler and Peja, this bargaining chip is already very good, but the Jazz will definitely make money!
Ray Allen is the second best three-pointer in the league after Liu Mang!

"Five-star jazz, uncle, is it possible for Carlos to enter the finals this year and play against uncle?" Little Lolita suddenly became a little excited.

Although Boozer looks ferocious, he is a nice person, and Little Lori has a good impression of him.

"Five-star Jazz?" Liu Mang opened the Jazz page on the official NBA website, looking at the lineup of Deron, Ray Allen, Kirilenko, Boozer, Okur...

What a five-star jazz!
Five big players with at least first-class star level, among which Ray Allen and Boozer are still top stars...

But if the Jazz really made it to the finals, Liu Mang would be even happier. Playing the Jazz would be easier than playing against the Lakers and Niu Ri.

However, first of all, he had to make it to the finals. Liu Wei could only respond, "Probably."

Moreover, even if the Jazz can reach the Western Conference finals, facing Kobe...the Jazz are a bit miserable...

On the contrary, Ray Allen is quite suitable for the Jazz. Ray Allen's shooting area is much wider than that of Kirisek and Harprin, and he has the ball-handling ability that the two don't have.

With Ray Allen's words, Liu Mang feels that the Jazz may really have the possibility of fighting with the four major teams in the West. The key problem is... Deron is too young. In Liu Mang's memory, Deron and Paul both broke out in the 07-08 season. They were two point guards in the Western Conference.

How much contribution do you want Deron to help the Jazz this season...it must be far inferior to other four-stars.

But the future is hard to say. Deron is the top point guard who can lead the team to the Western Conference Finals even without Ray Allen in the future!
"Dinah, the NBA is getting more and more interesting, isn't it!"
