The toughest man in the NBA

Chapter 297 We are just like this, going to the end of the world

Blanks quickly contacted Ray Allen's agent, Jim Turner, who happened to be an old acquaintance, and Sean Battier and Grant Hill were also under his banner.

However, his biggest card is——

Tim Duncan!

Straight to the point:
"Jim, let Ray Allen come to Phoenix for 2500 million in three years, will he come?"

"How many did you say?"

Jim Turner was a little taken aback.

Blanks repeated it again, and there was a moment of silence on the phone before saying:
"Lance, this is not easy!"

Blanks feigned surprise:

"What's the matter, is it too little?"

Jim Turner said bitterly:

"No, no, 2500 million is quite a lot. But I have already promised Pat Riley that I released his pigeons last year because of Sean. It's not good to keep doing this..."

Blanks said:
"Have you signed the contract?"

The other end of the phone hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth:

"Not yet, Allen is on vacation, and he will sign it as soon as he comes back. It's already agreed..."

Blanks said:
"Then why are you hesitating? Signing the Heat to join the enemy is a life of shame! Ray Allen will never even think about raising his head in Boston in his life, let alone the Heat can win the championship?"

Jim Turner subconsciously said:
"cannot!"

Blanks laughed:

"But in Phoenix, we can win ten consecutive championships, believe it or not?"

Jim Turner fell silent.

He had already persuaded Ray Allen, but he didn't listen, this guy was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, he couldn't be dragged away, he was going backwards, he was a stubborn donkey at all!

Blanks asked:

"It's not like what you did, that boy Ray Allen chose?"

Jim Turner sighed:

"Who says it's not, that kid doesn't listen to advice at all!"

Blanks laughed:

"It's easy to handle. Let the Heat breathe first, and say that I have also quoted the price, so don't give me an accurate word. I will ask Tu Man to persuade him, that kid is good at it!"

Therefore, Tu Man received this task.

But he didn't contact Ray Allen immediately. The old man was still angry, and he might be filming a small movie in Fernando Valley.

It was not until he came back with the gold medal that Tu Man called Ray Allen.

With just one sentence, Ray Allen immediately changed his mind——

"Lei, do you want to score [-] points on the Green Army?"

Not long after, the furious Pat Riley overturned the table, and was cut off by the Phoenix Suns again. There was Sean Battier in the front and Ray Allen in the back. Blanks, a coward, did it on purpose :
"Young people don't talk about martial arts, they don't talk about martial arts..."

Jim Turner also has a client, Jeremy Lin.

The Houston Mosaics want him badly, because they just sent away the team's starting point guard Kyle Lowry.

This operation is confusing.

Lowry averaged:

14.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.6 steals.

This is definitely the data of a qualified starting point guard, and it can even barely rank among the top.

And he is not expensive, next season's salary is only 575 million US dollars, this child labor contract will not expire until 2014, absolutely cheap.

The reason for the trade is said to be a conflict between him and head coach Kevin McHale.

So Fatty Mo sent him to Toronto, bought back a first-round pick and Forbes, all of which were added to getting Harden, and handed over to the Thunder.

In this way, Mosaic's No. [-] position is vacuumed up.

In order to get Jeremy Lin, Mo Fatty made careful calculations and offered a poison quotation——

4-year offer contract with a total value of $2880 million.

The toxicity of this contract is not the total price. With Jeremy Lin's performance, he deserves such treatment.

But Fatty Mo fiddled with his annual salary.

This is not a contract that increases year by year. Jeremy Lin's salary will be controlled at 500 million and 520 million in the first two years, and will reach 930 million in the third and fourth years.

Therefore, if the Knicks choose to match, they will bear a relatively large luxury tax pressure in the third and fourth years, but the luxury tax of about 500 million in the third year is still within the acceptable range of the Knicks, and the fourth year It is a team option (actually only 1850 million contracts are guaranteed), and New York will take the initiative at that time.

The Knicks did not hesitate and chose to match.

So Fatty Mo increased his toxicity and offered another three-year offer of 2500 million US dollars. The first two years did not change much, but Jeremy Lin's annual salary will surge to 1500 million in the third year.

If the Knicks choose to match, then by the 2014-2015 season, the total salary of Jeremy Lin, Anthony, Stoudemire and Chandler will be 7600 million US dollars, and the team will spend 3000 million US dollars on Jeremy Lin alone!
This is obviously unscientific, Kobe didn't even get an annual salary of 3000 million!

The Knicks gave up.

In fact, Fatty Mo himself did not swallow the poison contract. What Jeremy Lin finally signed was a three-year contract with an equal annual salary of 2500 million yuan, with an annual salary of 837 million US dollars.

That is to say, James Dolan doesn't want to argue with Fatty Mo, otherwise he can appeal and let the alliance invalidate the contract...

At this time, Yi Jianlian finally got news.

After the Olympics, although many teams offered olive branches, the Cleveland Cavaliers were the most sincere in the end. In fact, they are also the team that lacks the most offensive power forwards in the league.

Since the emperor left, Gilbert has been crying and rebuilding.

Got Irving last season, undisputedly won the best rookie, the outside cornerstone has been set, and the inside Tristan Thompson has also grown rapidly.

His rebounding blows up all rookies in the same class, and he has the league's top-you read that right not the top rookie but the league's top-offensive rebounding ability.

In this year's draft, the Cavaliers selected a white center named Tyler Zeller and a double guard named Dion West. The summer league played the same as Schett, so it can be concluded, These two rookies are basically useless.

This wave of drafts is considered a loss!

Gilbert is crying again, TT lacks offensive ability, Varejao is a glass man, he needs a beautiful power forward partner TT.

Therefore, at the time of bidding, it was given in one bite:

$8000 million over five years!
The UAE is very surprised. This is already the second largest contract this summer after Blake Griffin. What is there to hesitate?

The Cavaliers just happen to have no leader in a group of snakes. They have money and status protection. The inside partner Tristan Thompson is a believer in brutality. Is there a better choice?
Robert Savoy prepared a farewell banquet for Yi Jianlian, and Nash, who was blushing in the sun, also rushed back to participate. After all, this super big party is full of young models and has a lot of connotations...

The next day, Yi Jianlian boarded a flight to Cleveland.

A sad thing happened:

In the Phoenix Suns preseason routine inspection report, Dr. Carter got a very bad news——

Yao Ming suffered a stress fracture in his left ankle!
