: Five hundred fifty-four. Can you still operate like this?

On July 29th, there has been no action in the free market this year. There are more than 10 million free agents. But watching so many free agent signings and renewals, the Lakers who seem to have no idea suddenly threw a heavyweight. bomb.
The Lakers won the former Pistons full free agent Greg Monroe with a three-year 27 million player option contract, and then used Mike Scott to reach a deal with the Hornets to get the Hornets restricted free agent Bismarck- Bi Yongbo!
Bi Yongbo then signed a three-year, 9 million third-year player option contract with the Lakers.
Since the Hornets signed a huge contract with Batum with an average annual value of over 25 million, the starting salary was 22.7 million, and the space was instantly blocked. They reached a 4-year 50 million contract extension with Kemba Walker. After Courtney Lee signed a 4-year 44 million contract renewal and Al Jefferson signed a 3-year 30 million contract renewal, the total salary is only 2 million yuan away from the luxury tax threshold, plus The quotation for Bi Yongbo's 1.64 million qualifications resulted in a total salary of 81.37 million.
At this time, they were unable to give Bi Yongbo the contract that he should have at the market price. The value on the Bi Yongbo free market was probably a mini-middle class, which was about 3.33 million.
Moreover, the Hornets are currently extremely understaffed. Only Courtney-Lee on the shooting guard can only sign the veteran with a basic salary. Therefore, he is very hesitant to renew the Biyombo Hornets, because he has already renewed Ai. Jefferson, what else is Bi Yongbo?
When the Lakers offered Bi Yongbo a three-year 9 million offer and offered to use Mike Scott, a substitute shooting guard who is really not expensive for ordinary teams, and Bi Yongbo to sign and then change, Michael Jordan immediately. I agreed.
A backup shooting guard averaging 4+3 per game... next year, there will be no more than 5 million to find! It does not seem to be a disadvantage to win 3.33 million.
Signed Monroe, sent away Scott and returned to Bi Yongbo. The Lakers' 15-man roster is full, so Green’s contract renewal was officially submitted to the league. Green will have to play at least three years with the Lakers before he can transfer. Possible.
Green’s new contract includes a three-year non-tradable clause. This non-tradable clause and the right to veto the transaction are actually two different things. The non-tradable clause can only be maintained and abandoned. Once Green gives up, the Lakers can send him. For any team, the non-tradable clause is the same as Gasol.
The trade veto power of Kobe, Anthony, James and others means that the management can find a trading partner, and then they can choose to go or not.
But this is not important to Green. The important thing is that he received most of next season's salary immediately after signing the contract, a total of 12 million before tax.
After paying the agent commission, player union commission, state tax, and personal income tax, he received a total of 6,273,700 dollars, and Green instantly changed from a basic salary man to a local tyrant! He is going to buy a house!
Beverly Hills... Green is still a little bit reluctant, like Liu Ren who is lucky enough to meet a Lakers fan and sell the house to him is a rare encounter in ten years, and everyone lives too close. There is no sense of freshness, so the new house Green chose is in the San Marino villa area.
Most of the black people are big money, just got more than 6 million, more than 5 million was thrown out, and instantly became the poor face when they got the basic salary last season.
Fortunately, Nike's endorsement contract has finally been won, 30 million in 7 years, Green will stay under Nike in the next 7 years!
Nike finally agreed to Green’s annual endorsement fee of more than 4 million, but the number of years has been greatly increased to seven years. From a long-term perspective, it can be regarded as no profit or loss.
Of course, endorsements like Green do not have signature shoes...
...
...
After the two signings of the Lakers were exposed, other teams instantly collapsed, 80.29 million!
The Lakers are now full of their 15-man roster, with Kobe, Liu Ren, Gasol, Green, Whiteside, Korver and six last season’s All-Star members, plus Antetokounmpo and Monroe. In the case of a new generation of supernova lineups, the total salary of the Lakers next season is only 80.29 million!
Especially the inside of the Lakers, it is simply outrageous!
Green, Gasol, and Whiteside have three All-Star level insiders, plus Monroe and Biyombo two starting level insiders... The Lakers are crazy!
Popovich was the first to come out and accuse the Lakers of being robbed again!
Popovich's heartbreak! Monroe offered the Spurs a starting salary of 17 million! If he could win Monroe with 9 million yuan, he would have gone to find a troika to cut his salary a little bit longer. Maybe he could still confuse Leonard to drop a few million, then wouldn't he take Monroe?
By the time the troika plus Leonard, Monroe, Aldridge, and David West, this lineup is no worse than the Lakers!
The most shocked was Aldridge. After he heard the news, his whole body was not well.
In fact, Monroe's free market was cold this year, and it was the same in Liu Ren's original time and space.
Monroe asked for a relatively high price. He wanted the highest four-year contract of more than 60 million yuan he could get. Of course, he finally found the Bucks who lacked a center because Larry Sanders wanted to pursue art and didn’t want to play. The team won a four-year contract of 68 million yuan, but other strong teams are greedy for him and think it is too expensive.
Before signing with the Spurs, Aldridge was also very concerned about the free market, especially for Los Angeles. He had been waiting for a bald white-haired man in Los Angeles to invite him to dinner.
However, Aldridge did not receive his dinner invitation~EbookFREE.me~. Instead, he heard that there was a man who was stationed in Los Angeles and wanted to join the Lakers.
At first, Aldridge mocked Monroe from the bottom of his heart. He was a tens of millions of insiders. This approach was too embarrassing, just like he hadn't put down his face.
But I didn't expect that Monroe really "moved" the Lakers, and then he went to the Lakers after a three million price drop from the market price!
Aldridge felt that his heart couldn't stand it anymore.
Aldridge began to feel that if he took the initiative, would the Lakers give him $54 million in three years?
It is not possible, it is very possible! The Lakers made it clear that they would not miss the opportunity to reinforce the inside line, and also announced that Antetokounmpo will focus on point guards and small forwards next season, deliberately freeing up inside time! And the Lakers won Monroe and Bi Yongbo in one go. Aldridge asked himself that his contract was not much higher than the two combined. In fact, the Lakers still have more than 3 million space after signing the two. , Totally enough to sign him who is willing to cut his salary by three to four million...
"There is such an operation?"
