Two Hundred and Nine: How Much Do You Guess?

On June 13, 2011, the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Miami Heat again on the road. The victory in this game allowed the Dallas Mavericks to win the first NBA championship trophy in NBA history.

Dirk Nowitzki burst into tears after the game. He went to the tunnel as soon as the game was over, and later admitted that he went to cry secretly.

The German finally got up from where he fell. In 2006, the Mavericks were overturned by the Heat with a 2-0 lead and lost the championship. Five years later, Nowitzki led his team to avenge success and won the late O'Brien Cup. At the same time, he finally swept away his "soft egg" infamy.

Although the Heat's Big Three, who originally thought they would dominate the league, made it to the finals, they "accidentally" lost to the Mavericks, which undoubtedly exceeded most people's expectations. The omnipotent LeBron James, who averaged just 17 points per game during the Finals, has struggled and slumped this round of the series like never before.

The Mavericks took out the Heat in 6 games, and Dirk Nowitzki performed superbly in the finals. Even when he had a high fever, he still put in the key balls steadily.

Of course, Bosh expressed his dissatisfaction. "When he was on the court, no one found him sick at all, and no one pointed out that he had a fever."

What Bosh means is that what is on the field with illness is completely fabricated by the media and fans.

It's an honor to be defeated by Nowitzki, who doesn't have a fever...

Nowitzki's battle can be described as a god of war, and his performance this season is fully worthy of the title of "superstar".

At this point, the 2010-2011 season officially ushered in the finale. In the end, the Big Three of the Heat could only go home with an eastern champion in despair. It was really a blow...

After the finals, the Mavericks and Nowitzki has undoubtedly become the object of everyone's heated discussion. After all, from the perspective of the lineup on paper, the Mavericks do not seem to be as luxurious as the Heat with the three giants.

Such a comparison will undoubtedly make the Mavericks' championship more valuable. Of course, this also highlights the impressive strength of the Mavericks players.

However, after the finals, someone discovered another interesting thing.

"This season's Mavericks are so strong, this season's Dirk Nowitzki is so amazing. So, what is the level of the Grizzlies that forced the Mavericks into a desperate situation? After all, even the Miami Heat can only be in the Mavericks. He won two games. The Grizzlies also won two games against the Mavericks."

As soon as this topic came out, it detonated the entire public opinion circle. Inexplicably, the Memphis Grizzlies are on fire again half a month after being eliminated.

After all, their rise is too fast. Even after the finals, their match against the Mavericks in the Western Conference finals is still impressive.

The day after the finals, Jeff Austin visited Link. The summer is going to be very long, so with Austin finding Link as soon as the season is over, vacation plans have to come early.

"As you wish, you were finally eliminated by this year's championship." Jeff Austin said this when he saw Link.

"Um...what do I want. If I can, I would definitely rather be a champion than be defeated by a champion." Link was speechless, and Austin's cold jokes are sometimes really annoying Can't laugh.

But on second thought, this year's Grizzlies are really strong enough. In the original history, the Grizzlies never even passed the Thunder. But after having themselves, the Grizzlies defeated the Thunder 4-2 this year, and overturned the Spurs 4-1, with better results than the original history.

In the end, although they lost 4 to 2 to the Mavericks, except for the first game, the Mavericks did not have an easy game. In this way, the performance of the Grizzlies and the Heat in the finals is basically the same.

But you gotta know, the Grizzlies don't have a Big Three.

Although it is still unwilling to be eliminated by the championship, at least it is not ashamed. Moreover, it also allows the Grizzlies to see more hope.

"Okay, don't think about the championship, what have you been doing these past few days?" Austin waved his hand. Compared with the championship, he was more concerned about Link's life in the past few days since the offseason. interested in.

"I didn't do anything, I studied the draft list." Link pouted and began to recall his boring vacation.

Recently, Link took a look at the 2011 draft roster. After all, he is the one who opened the eyes of the sky. Even the best scouts in the world are not as powerful as Link in predicting whether a rookie will become a talent.

Although the Grizzlies don't have a first-round pick this year, it shouldn't be difficult to trade a 30th overall pick. Who can pick the 30th pick? Jimmy Butler! Who would have thought that this guy who was completely unnoticed could become a superstar in the future?

But if Link ran over and told Chris Wallace directly, let him trade a 30th pick and pick an unknown player... Chris Wallace would probably feel that Lin Crazy.

If a player has a high enough status within a team, he can indeed sway the team's selection in the draft. He can decide who his helper is, and the team will definitely be obedient.

But it is clear that Link does not have such a status now. Not to mention him, even Randolph and Conley and others have absolutely no such rights. The Grizzlies have failed in the draft in recent years, with Thabeet before and Mayo. Finally, I chose a reliable Henry, but it turned out to be a glass man.

Therefore, the Grizzlies will strictly judge their selection in the draft, and it is impossible to fully listen to a player's advice.

Link now only hopes that his performance in the next few seasons will be better, and when his status in the Grizzlies is absolutely exalted, his "eyes of the sky" will also be able to play a role in the draft.

As for the 30th overall pick in the second round... Isaiah Thomas is indeed inspirational, but the Grizzlies already have Conley, and Thomas will not play a role. Therefore, Link simply did not mention the second-round draft suggestion.

In conclusion, Link can only fulfill his responsibilities as a player now. Interfere with team personnel changes? Involved in team building? Link hasn't reached that level yet, so he has to keep working hard!

"And then...fishing a few times with Randolph and a few drinks with Tony Allen. And then, today."

In two sentences, Link summed up his holiday life in the past few days. Jeff Austin shook his head, really boring!

"Let's be honest with you, we've been unlucky this year because, as things stand now, there's a good chance that the collective bargaining will break down. If it does break down, then the free agency market may not start as scheduled. There is no doubt that this will affect the to our contract."

"Well... it will definitely break down. If we can negotiate, we have already reached an agreement." Link curled his lips. If history is not wrong, this year's NBA will not wait until the end of December because of the lockout. open. Jeff Austin is right, it's going to be a long vacation.

"You are a restricted free agent now, so before the free agency market opens, the Grizzlies can still provide you with a qualification offer. The maximum amount of the qualification offer can only be 125% of last season's salary, which is very low. It's obviously not in line with your strength. But don't worry, it's just a Grizzlies protection. Giving you a qualification offer is only to allow the Grizzlies to match other teams' offers."

"Well, I'm not too worried about the signing." Link nodded, Shane said well, unless the Grizzlies are stupid, it is impossible to let him go easily. Link still has this confidence.

"Don't worry about returning, don't worry, you should care, right? You're not curious, how much contract will the Grizzlies give you? Let me say first, Randolph's annual salary this season is 14.5 million. According to this Standard, how much do you think the Grizzlies can give you in a year?" Austin sold off, but Link wasn't surprised by the numbers.

As a person who has crossed over from 2019, Link's annual salary of more than 30 million a year has seen many times. Link has also seen players who get 30 million a year and are still disliked. The annual salary of more than 10 million yuan in this era does not sound so overbearing.

However, when he thought that the more than 10 million yuan was put into his own pocket, Link was still a little excited. That's over $10 million! 10 times this year's salary! What can 10 million do? Do whoever you want!

No, just do whatever you want...

"Well...give me 14 million a year?" Link thought, Randolph is so powerful now that he should not be higher than Randolph.

"You are so courageous. The first four-year rookie contract of No. 1 pick Wall is only 24 million. Do you want to get 14 million a year?"

"Hey, I guessed it." Link scratched his head, is it really too high?

"The Grizzlies are willing to offer you a three-year, $45 million deal, or $15 million a year. You guessed it wrong, Link."

Link looked at Jeff Austin who was chattering in surprise. It turned out that he had guessed too low!

This guy Austin, showing off his negotiating ability, is really a set!
