This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 410 The Surging Free Market

For the NBA, the prologue of the second decade of the 21st century will kick off completely this summer.

More or less lucky, the Charlotte people had a carnival for nearly a month. The Charlotte Bobcats promotional posters can be seen everywhere in the city. Even though it is located in a small city, several core players of the team , Still got a lot of endorsement contracts and opportunities to appear on TV stations.

The players also started to relax and comfort their tired bodies.

Zhou Lin didn’t marry Misha in the end. Both of them are too busy. Zhou Lin has become a multi-millionaire, but Misha doesn’t want to be attached to Zhou Lin, so he went to his alma mater to study management. Bachelor of Science.

They both agreed that the wedding would not be held until Zhou Lin won the championship and she also received her degree certificate.

But from another level, Misha hopes that Zhou Lin can win the second championship in a row, and use this as motivation!
Zhou Lin experienced three days without training, and then resumed daily training. Zhou Lin will stay in the United States until the end of July, and then return to China to do some public welfare projects, hold personal basketball training, and then cooperate with sponsors to participate in some commercial activities.

It is worth mentioning that Thomas Myers had already won a super sneaker contract from Adidas for Zhou Lin. Adidas from Germany promised to have signed sneakers every year, and at the same time, he would also send a large sum of dollars and dividends, and create Similar to Nike's AJ series sub-brand, Zhou Lin also made a choice before the 2010 All-Star Game.

Zhou Lin still did not sign the contract in the end. For Americans, this seemed an unbelievable thing, but Zhou Lin still insisted on his own opinion, brought domestic products, and renewed his contract with Anta for another three years.

价格是4年8000万人民币，换算下来4年1200万美金都不到，每年不到300万美金。

But for domestic brands, this is already a sky-high price.

The current Zhou Lin is no longer a rookie player who first entered the league four years ago.

And Adidas offered a super contract of more than 6 million US dollars in 7000 years.

The contract price difference is 4 times.

However, Anta gave some of the original stock as a bonus, which calmed Thomas Myers' emotions.

This is also the largest contract offered by a Chinese sporting goods company in the field of sneakers. Anta's courage is also very strong. During the negotiation, the price has been raised many times. If there is no hint from Zhou Lin, Thomas Mai Ernes also excluded Anta a long time ago.

You must know that the German brand has opened a super contract of more than 8 million US dollars in 1 years.

Once Zhou Lin signs the contract, he will also become the head of Adidas' new generation of endorsements.

Now Anta can be said to have made a lot of money. The fifth generation of the control series has become a big seller because of Zhou Lin's championship. At this moment, because of this championship, Zhou Lin has completely entered the league's superstar level. Compared with him Now they are all players at the level of Kobe, James, and Duncan.

But for Zhou Lin, how much money is enough is enough. He feels very used to cooperating with Chinese people. He is not stingy and let Anta use his patriotic feelings to offer a bargaining chip that is far lower than Adi.

However, Zhou Lin also put forward new requirements. Zhou Lin hoped that his reduced endorsement fee would better allow Anta to invest in research and development, and for the sixth generation of control that will be released this summer - the era of champions.

Anta Company and Zhou Lin also attached great importance to it. As Zhou Lin's enthusiasm for winning the championship has not faded, it is reasonable for the "Champion Era" to sell well, and Anta Company will definitely increase the price. Zhou Lin also proposed his own Requirements, performance must also be improved, he is not willing to be scolded by the fans, harvesting the leeks of the fans.

the past is the past

For the Charlotte Bobcats management, the first day of the Finals marked the start of the next season.

The team's management will make many decisions this summer, draft and trade, sign, and renew.

However, as a team in a small market, Michael Jordan, as the poorest owner in the league, naturally couldn't afford to be extravagant, so he would take the risk of renewing his contract, or go to the free market to find a superstar to join with extravagance.

The hottest team this summer should be the New York Knicks. As a giant team in the NBA, in the past few years, they have released enough salary space to do things, and they have never been afraid Pay the luxury tax.

What the Charlotte Bobcats can do is tinkering. The new contracts of Brandon Roy and Zhou Lin are 5 million for 8000 years and 5 million for 8200 years. The total salary of the two will reach 3150 million next season. , plus David Lee's 800 million, it takes up 4000 million salary space.

The salary cap for the 2010-2011 season was 5800 million.

Kyle Lowry, who performed well last season, has also become a free agent. The Charlotte Bobcats are naturally not reconciled. Such a good player only needs one year, but Kyle Lowry has undoubtedly become a free agent. Big Fish, as a champion point guard, even some teams are willing to give Lowry a contract with an annual salary of tens of millions. Of course, the Charlotte Bobcats are eligible to match the contract.

In addition, Yi Jianlian and Chuck Hayes in the team have also reached their contract year. Hayes has implemented the player option for next season, while Yi Jianlian has reached the point of time to renew his contract in advance.

The contract of these two people is not the top priority of the Charlotte Bobcats.

In the 2010 draft, the Charlotte Bobcats did not have any draft picks. It involved the trade of Radmanovich that year. The second round pick was sent to the Los Angeles Lakers by the Bobcats, leaving only the first round pick. No. 24 pick.

But Quentin Richardson, with an annual salary of 800 million and 9.2 points and 3.5 rebounds, was traded to the Golden State Warriors in exchange for the 41st pick in the second round this year and the second round pick in 2014.

Rod Higgins is really not crazy or alive. Brandon Roy was unable to play for the first half of the season on the Charlotte Bobcats, and his meniscus was partially removed. Quentin Richardson is the second position of the Bobcats. Another option for .

But saving 800 million annual salary, isn't it?

"When many teams are thinking about reinforcements, the Charlotte Bobcats are thinking about how to save money. Is this really a championship team?"

The local media in Charlotte also expressed their confusion in the newspapers.

It is true that the state of Big Q is average, but with an annual salary of 800 million, can you find a better second player in the free market?

Obviously, this is not a simple matter.

The idea of ​​the Charlotte Bobcats, in fact, can be seen by everyone, but they want to use the draft to Taobao, plus the attraction of the championship, to get some veterans who are still capable of fighting.

In addition, the Bobcats did not retain Raymond Felton and Stephon Marbury at the No. [-] position today. The former has flirted with the Knicks and will most likely join with a basic salary. There is a championship bonus, but there are very few teams inquiring about it. In order to stay in the NBA, Stephon Marbury moved to the San Antonio Spurs, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Dallas Mavericks. Trial training, now the teams outside the playoffs will basically not want Stephen Marbury, the reason is very simple, there is no need for Marbury to hinder the growth of the new generation of players, and the team does not need Marbury Although there are many scandals, Marbury still has nowhere to go until the start of the draft.

The 2010 draft is an ordinary draft year. There are no superstars, but there are good stars, but most of them are concentrated in the lottery.

John Wall was not unexpectedly selected by the Washington Wizards as the No. [-] pick.

The top five picks have not changed much. Turner went to the digital man, Derek Favors was selected by the Nets, Wesley Johnson went to the bad team Timberwolves, and the Kings got the highest inside ceiling among rookies this year. DeMarcus Cousins.

Most of the other popular rookies have moved away.

In the eyes of Zhou Lin, a future man, the biggest winner is the Golden State Warriors. They got the best No. 12 among rookies in this world at the tenth pick. Paul George, the combination of George and Harden. The probability will take off, and the Golden State Warriors, ranked No. [-] in the West, may re-enter the ranks of the playoffs next season.

In addition, the Los Angeles Clippers got the white small forward Gordon Hayward at the eighth pick. After McGrady's expired 2000 million annual salary contract ended, the Los Angeles Clippers did not choose to renew his contract and directly vacated the Can sign a huge salary space, plus Gordon Hayward and the comeback white monster Blake Griffin, although the Clippers will not quickly enter the championship level, but the game must be very good.

The quality of players outside the lottery is limited, and most of them are no-names in the NBA.

The two draft picks owned by the Charlotte Bobcats did not cause any waves. The 22nd pick in the first round chose a combo guard, 1.93 meters Dominique Jones-this future CBA star.

Landry Fields was selected with the 41st overall pick in the second round of the trade, and he was also a swingman at position 2/3. Everyone remembers him, most likely because of the memory of Lin Crazy later, that time at his home in New York. An ill-fitting sofa.

After him, the Miami Heat picked up their junior, Lance Stephenson.

It is also a pity.

However, whether it is Dominic. Jones or Landry. Fields, are not enough to meet the needs of the Charlotte Bobcats for the second position.

If there's one thing that hasn't changed, the late 'Linsanity' still hasn't been picked in the top 60, and it's the Charlotte Bobcats who saved him this time.

He was included in the Charlotte Bobcats roster with two draft picks and another undrafted pick, Dwayne Collins.

Although the Charlotte Bobcats only had one draft pick, they brought four rookies back to Charlotte through trades and undrafted picks.

The reason why Jeremy Lin can be taken away by the Charlotte Bobcats is also very simple. There are two yellow-skinned Chinese in the Bobcats, so I don't mind having one more.

Moreover, Jeremy Lin did show amazing talent during the trial training process, for example, surpassing Wall's speed.

If, if Jeremy Lin is not Asian, maybe he is worth at least a second-round pick.

Zhou Lin did not force the management of the Charlotte Bobcats to bring Jeremy Lin to Charlotte. He just said that if Jeremy Lin failed to be selected in the draft, it would be a good choice to bring him back at a very low price.

Therefore, as soon as Jeremy Lin lost the election, Rod Higgins called Jeremy Lin.

This is a training camp contract. The official signing will not be until July 7st, and the contract will be maintained until the day before the start of the new season. If he performs well, Jeremy Lin has a high probability of staying in the NBA.

Moreover, the Charlotte Bobcats have a special background. Even though Zhou Lin will not say too much about Jeremy Lin, the Bobcats have benefited from Zhou Lin, Yi Jianlian, and the yellow race. Therefore, this team can say There is no prejudice against Asians. This may also change certain concepts of NBA executives. After all, Zhou Lin is not Yao Ming and does not have a height of 226 cm. At least from the appearance, he is not much stronger than other NBA players, but he After all, it has come this far.

And Zhou Lin felt that for the Charlotte Bobcats, signing Jeremy Lin as a backup tire at the No. At least before he suffered an injury, his physical fitness was the ceiling of the Asian race.

And in this turbulent summer.

The first renewal contract of the 03 golden generation can already be adjusted.

The super giants of the four platinum generation are impressively listed.

LeBron James, who has not won a championship for seven years in the Cavaliers and has a sluggish management operation, has a three-year contract extension of 6000 million yuan. At the same time, the Chicago Bulls, New York Knicks... and other teams An olive branch was thrown.

Chris Bosh, who signed a big contract four years ago, has also reached another choice point in his career. The curse of never breaking through the second round lingers on him. Reece Bosh is nostalgic.

In addition, the star of the Heat, Dwyane Wade, also has the opportunity to jump out of the 4-year 6200 million contract this summer. He can sign a super contract with his home team with an annual salary of up to 6 years 1.12 million, or he can cooperate with other players. The team signed a 1 million super contract.

Another banana boat brother, the conflict between Carmelo Anthony and the management is also looming. The consecutive losses in the playoffs have made Melon more or less impatient. The contract can also be completed this summer.

In addition, many high-quality players of the platinum generation have completed their contracts this summer or the arrival of player options.

In addition, the runner-up of the 2009-2010 season, Amare Stoudemire of the Phoenix Suns, has also become a free agent.

Compared with last year's deep phlegm, the free market is much more lively this summer!
