Chapter 285 2012 NBA Free Agent Market (55)

This wave of operations by the Rockets and Ford's comments immediately aroused a wave of heated discussions among fans on social media.

"Long live Daryl Morey! He is the best general manager of the season in the NBA!"

"It's really amazing. The Rockets just got two high-quality players for nothing, and they seem to have found the key to reopen the Chinese market after Yao Ming retired."

"Who formulated this clause? Why is there such an obvious loophole?"

"Man, this is not a loophole, it's to protect the interests of the players, otherwise, when there is another Arenas, he can only sign a 2-year mid-level contract with his home team, taking 2 extra years of risk in vain."

"This is the brain of NBA professional managers. They can always find some bugs in the rules and take advantage of them."

"We also drafted Jeremy Lamb. As a close friend, I suddenly looked forward to the new season!"

"Wake up guys! You just won the ninth place in the Western Conference for two years. Even if you get Lin and Asik, it will be difficult for you to get ahead in the brutal Western Conference."

"Haha, you are so heartbroken, he will want to beat you along the network cable!"

"But I suddenly remembered Tang. He seems to have signed a two-year contract with the Spurs. Can he be poisoned as well?"

"Obviously, of course!"

"I'm starting to worry about my future."

"Don't worry, although Tang performed very well in his rookie season, he is only a role player, and there will be no fans so hard."

"Maybe Tang isn't worth it this season, but next season...are you sure he won't improve?"

"If this is the case, it depends on the courage of the Spurs management."

"Ahem, the management of the Spurs... when did they have courage?"

...

These heated discussions among fans on social media are just the tip of the iceberg, as this wave of discussions was quickly covered by new hot topics.

With the Celtics having no intention of renewing the contract, veteran Ray Allen finally accepted the three-year 9.3 million contract offered by the Heat.

You must know that even though Ray Allen is 37 years old, he still averaged 14.2 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.1 steals for the Celtics in the regular season last season, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 45.3%!

Riley fulfilled his promise to the fans after the finals loss and recruited the team's best role player in the offseason!

For a 37-year-old veteran, even an All-Star signing would have been no big deal.

But the problem is, he joined the Heat that beat them last season!

"Vote... to the enemy?"

"Dude, you're using the term inappropriately. This is turning an enemy into a friend. The NBA is a business. Nothing lasts forever."

"However, as the secret of the Celtics team, it is really unacceptable. They have fought side by side since 2008!"

"As a Ray Allen fan, I want to say that the Celtics are too careless about the renewal issue. They don't seem to want to renew the contract at all. Many people may not have noticed that Ray was in season Due to injuries in the postseason, his performance was not as good as in the regular season.”

"They won the championship together, and they fought the Heat in seven games last season, and once had a good chance of reaching the finals."

"Yeah, I thought Ray Allen was going to end up with the Celtics like those legends."

"As far as I know, his contract with the Heat is 9.3 million for 3 years, but the Celtics offered 6 million for 2 years, just for that extra year contract..."

"This is really unforgivable, let's beat the Heat in the new season, they are so disgusting!"

...

The Heat took Ray Allen, but Riley's reinforcements continued.

The team first used the amnesty clause to amnesty Mike Miller, who performed poorly last season, and then aimed at the inside.

They first signed the veteran Rashad Lewis, one of the former supersonic duo, with a one-year minimum salary contract.

Lewis still contributed 7.8 points and 3.9 rebounds in the Wizards last season and is one of the team's rotations.

They then signed the "parallel import champion" Kwame Brown with a 2-year 5 million contract.

Brown didn't play much with the Warriors last season due to injuries, but he wasn't bad before the injury.

In the 2010~2011 season, he averaged 7.9 points, 6.8 rebounds and 0.6 blocks per game with the Bobcats, and his shooting percentage reached 51.7%.

But perhaps because the owner of the Bobcats is Jordan, he did not finally get a contract extension.

He signed a one-year 7 million contract with the Warriors last season, averaging 6.3 points and 6.3 rebounds per game.

Adding 2 at once, and they are big men with immediate combat power. Coupled with the previously signed Ray Allen, the Heat's strength has greatly increased!

Looking at this series of operations, Tang Tian also realized that some changes had begun to take place in history.

But this is also a reasonable thing.

Riley would be a real fool if failure to win the championship is the same as success.

The opponent is getting stronger, but there is no movement on the Spurs side.

The focus of the management is on the renewal of Duncan, Diaw, Green, and Mills.

Duncan 45 million in 3 years, Dior 12 million in 2 years, Green 12 million in 3 years, Mills 9 million in 3 years.

After these contract renewals are completed, the Spurs are basically close to the luxury line, and reinforcements basically don't exist.

It is estimated that this is not the original intention of Buford and Popovich.

Holt said on the night of the championship that the team has not exceeded the luxury tax for 15 years. For the owner, the management's performance is great, but for the players, the team's refusal to spend money is not necessarily a good thing.

Tang Tian was a little worried about his contract renewal next year.

But the good news is that the salary cap will rise sharply in the future. Even if the Spurs do get a poison contract, the team will have enough room to match.

After all, the poison contract has a space limit for the team that made the offer, but there is no such thing for the home team.

Almost ten days have passed since the free agent market, and the Howard deal is still unclear.

Many teams couldn't afford to wait, and began to withdraw one after another, and some big signings and transactions also broke out one after another.

The Nets were the first to withdraw. They renewed the contract of the main center Brook Lopez with 61 million in 4 years, and then left the "tough guy" Henry who conquered Kim Kardashian with a 2-year contract of 24 million. Frith.

Followed by the Nuggets, they used a four-year 44 million contract to keep JaVale McGee, who has exploded in physical fitness.

After that, the Nets became the new focus of the league.

They first used a deal to bring the "Eagle King" Joe Johnson from the Eagles, followed by using chips to trade Deron Williams from the Jazz, and then re-signed Gerald Wallace with a lot of money. scholar.

In an instant, the main lineup of Deron Williams + Joe Johnson + Gerald Wallace + Humphries + Lopez will be there.

The Russian Prokhorov is really rich, and he directly spent a lot of money to build a lineup.

The person didn't wake up, and the serial number was wrong...
