Card Bishop of Basketball

Chapter 44
The two star cards this time are considered players familiar to Chinese fans. One is a CBA star who often comes to CBA to play. The inside center Ai Pai Youdu is very strong, and the other is nicknamed "Suo Thigh" Matthews Thornton.

The star card is required to wear, and the player must be an outside line with outstanding scoring ability. After obtaining it, the height will increase to 193cm.

Well, it’s basically the same as no requirement. It’s hard to find three-legged frogs, but there are plenty of two-legged toads. If you want to talk about players with excellent perimeter defense ability, you can’t remember them all at once, but if you want to talk about players with abundant offensive firepower , A large number of outside players are eager to try.

The talent skill of Thornton's star card is "Suo Thigh". When a player is on the court, if he can control the ball to his heart's content, his game state will increase by 5% - 10%.

The player's outside confrontation ability is raised to 81, the player's three-point ability is raised to 78, and the player's various offensive skills are raised to 75
Hidden talent: Real thighs, when people regard them as thigh-hugging bastards, their own state will be improved in an all-round way, and they will temporarily gain the ability to enter the rhythm. No matter whether they miss or make shots, they can help players improve their touch.

This star card is a proper Super Six template. If you want to say that you are in control of the ball, you can do it when you are a substitute, or you are on a bad team, just play casually, just do it with the ball, every game Can score high.

Regarding this hidden talent, Meng Yifan thinks that it will be used in the final years of a player's career. Stars who have not won a championship in the last years of their career like to join the favorites for the championship with a minimum salary. Some are really in no condition, and some have gas tanks...

The Chinese team hadn't played a few Summer League games before Ming Jin withdrew. They came to the Summer League to check their game status, and then went to Atlanta to participate in the Olympics.

This year is a year of surge in the free market. A large number of stars have ended their contracts, and many of them have gone to new teams. uncle), and Tim Hardaway's Big Three.

But the fortune teller has thousands of calculations, except that the salary space problem is not considered. In the end, the plan went bankrupt. Uncle Huo returned to Washington and continued to stay with his good friend Webber. The Heat hurriedly signed the defensive tough The insider PJ Brown forcibly formed a Big Three lineup to avoid further embarrassment.

The topic is far away. When it comes to Atlanta, Meng Yifan thinks of the Eagles. When he thinks of the Eagles, he thinks of Uncle Mu. Because the re-signed broadcast contract in 96 led to a substantial increase in the salary of the NBA. Uncle Mu signed it last year. The five-year 5 million contract is already considered quite cheap.

Take Uncle Huo as an example. Although Uncle Huo is good at both offense and defense, he is actually not as good as Uncle Mu in terms of career longevity or honors. As a result, Uncle Huo happily signed a 7-year 1.05 million contract this year, becoming The first star in NBA history to sign a [-] million yuan contract.

So Meng Yifan calculated that if it was feasible, Uncle Mu could be traded. The current salary space of Philadelphia Digital is very healthy, and it is fully capable of taking down an All-Star player in this year's free market, but there is no one. would love to come here.

First of all, the team's biggest player, Richmond, has a contract of $358 million this year. This long-term contract seemed very fat in the past, but after the signing of the new broadcast contract, it instantly became a cabbage price.Because the new champion Iverson, according to the regulations, in the signed contract, this year's salary is 226 million dollars.

As mentioned earlier, Bobby Hurley, whose level is getting worse year by year, and whose salary is getting worse year by year, has a salary of 307 million this year. This is the most rubbish contract in Philadelphia right now, but if you look at the free market, 307 million a year's starting point guard, a lot of teams are willing to ask for it.

With Iverson's persistence and his amazing performance during the trial training, Ma Jian won a three-year contract of 3 million dollars, which caused a lot of discussion in the United States and in China. Many people want to know, a 1000-year-old In the draft, why did he win such a big contract, because he spent a year with Iverson at Georgetown University?

The Philadelphia management did this intentionally. No one from the team came, and a bunch of undrafted draft picks all signed cheap contracts. The only one Iverson valued was Ma Jian, and this person still had some strength. Giving him more money can make the new top pick happy and fill the poverty line, so why not do it.

Big Z, who was selected with the 17th pick, according to the rules set by the NBA, has a contract of 83 US dollars this year. Except for Battelle, the rest of the undrafted picks and second-round picks are happy to sign with digital people at a price of 100 million US dollars for three years. up.

Right now, Meng Yifan is a little anxious. The problem is that Battelle has not returned to his position for a long time, and the team is short of power forwards. Whether it is Corliss Williams or Malik Rose, they are not good starters. level players.

Things turned around at the end of August, at the Atlanta Olympics. Battelle, who was encouraged by Iverson and Meng Yifan, played the game desperately with his eyes wide open. Helped the team beat Croatia and achieved seventh place.

Battelle, who made contributions in the Olympic Games, is very famous. Many people discussed whether Battelle would lead the team to the semi-finals if he studied in Laomei for a period of time.

Under the domestic voices, the big shots at the top were finally alarmed. The bureaucratic leader immediately agreed to let Battelle lead the team to the United States. Take some young friends to go abroad to test the waters.

Originally, Shi Yong and Battelle went to the United States to test the waters together, but before Battelle left, one of his national team teammates stuffed another kid in. This kid was supposed to leave the youth team and join the club, but in Under the lobbying of his big brother, he finally decided to come with Battelle.

Meng Yifan, who got the news here, directly gave the Griffin star card to Battelle, and at the same time, together with Iverson, discussed the contract for Battelle.

The Philly front office was smart enough to insist on giving Battelle a three-year, $100 million contract, which is the same contract they have for all second-round picks.But the NBA does not clearly stipulate the signing contract of the second-round pick, so Iverson's attitude is to at least give Battelle a contract no less than Ma Jian.

In the end, after negotiation between Meng Yifan and Iverson, Battelle got an offer of US$50 a year. How much money he can get depends on Battelle's performance.
And the signing performance of the Philadelphia digital man who was ineffective in the free market was ridiculed and said that he wanted to send warmth to the king and let the king choose Duncan with an extra No. [-] pick...

It is worth mentioning that this year, after Boss Joe jumped out of the contract, he re-signed a one-year contract of 1 million US dollars with the Chicago Bulls, so if you change your mind, Boss Joe alone is more money than the team. , This also laid hidden dangers for the subsequent failure of negotiations between the players association and the team, and the suspension of the NBA...
