Vol 3 Chapter 532: Mourning's deal

?In the current NBA, only the salary cap, no luxury tax and top salary.
As long as the player has been in the team for more than three years, they can use the Bird clause to renew the contract.
As long as the boss is willing to give money, there is no problem even if the annual salary is 100 million.
In NBA, each team has a player who can renew the contract using Bird terms and does not count towards the salary cap.
The players who generally use this clause are definitely the bosses in the true sense of the team.
When other teams are preparing for high salaries to dig people, in order not to let the boss lose, they use the Byrd clause to give the boss a contract that no one can open.
Assuming that this year's NBA salary cap is less than 30 million US dollars, then directly to the boss of the team to use the Byrd clause to open a contract with an annual salary of 30 million.
No other team wants to dig people.
In the current nba, because commercialization is still in its infancy, there are many contractual issues and it is very irregular.
Especially with the sharp increase in the salary cap in recent years, the wages of players have always been in inflation.
A year ago, your contract was still the top salary, but a year later, your contract may only be average.
One of the most famous inflation contracts is Ewing.
Ewing and the Knicks contract, 85 years rookie Ewing and the Knicks signed a 10-year contract, 10 years 35 million, in 85 years, this is an absolute super salary.
At that time, magicians were only 2.5 million a year.
But Ewing found out that he was losing money when he signed such a long contract?
The Knicks also found that the contract caused their New York son to lose money.
Fortunately, this contract stipulates that if after six years of playing, he is not the top four players in the league, then Ewing will become a restricted free agent.
The team has the power to refuse to execute the contract for the next four years.
Ewing played for six years, in 1991, when Ewing, who was a center in the previous year, was squeezed out by David Robinson.
At the time, Ewing first thought of not why he was squeezed by David Robinson, but quickly negotiated with his agent David Falke. Is it possible to use the terms of the long contract to let the Knicks re-sign with him? .
The Knicks are not stupid. How could they implement the team option? It sounds good. What if Ewing ran?
Therefore, under the coordination of Ewing agent David Falke, although the Knicks could not implement the team option, in order to compensate Ewing, in 1991, on the basis of Ewing’s original 10-year 35 million contract, he continued About two years, 2200 years.
In this way, Ewing’s contract became 57 million in 12 years, as if not too bad.
The Knicks are indeed very sincere, and in 1991, 22 million were opened for 2 years.
But now, Ewing has discovered that he has lost 22 million in the past two years.
And it’s very interesting that Ewing’s newly renewed 22-million-year contract has a salary of 19 million in the first year and 3 million in the second year!
In other words, next season, Ewing will be the league's highest salary, and next season, Ewing's salary will not even enter the top 10!
Ewing's contract can be said to be a microcosm of the current NBA players' confusing contract situation.
No luxury tax, no maximum salary system, plus a designated quota that does not account for the salary cap, it is impossible for the team owner and players to have a common consensus.
This is also the conflict between Moning and the Hornets.
The Hornets said that the boss's contract has been given to Larry Johnson, but in Moning's view, how can you count as the boss's contract if you don't even send out a contract that does not account for the salary cap.
No matter how much I get paid, it won't affect the reinforcement of the team. You just can't bear the money and think I'm not worth that much money!
In the end, the Hornets boss can only say, I love you, but I have no money.
Because of the chaotic contract situation in NBA, the Hornets are not the only team that has renewal problems.
For example, O'Neal, a player whose contract has expired, now also encounters a contract renewal problem.
O'Neill signed a 7-year 50 million contract with the Magic when he was a rookie. At the time, this was an absolute top salary.
According to the 7-year period, O'Neill's contract will not end until the 98-99 season.
However, O'Neill is a wise person who is 4+3 in 7 years and has player options after playing for 4 years!
After the contract of Larry Johnson was released last year, how could O'Neill fulfill the 7-year contract, and will definitely jump out of the contract next year!
Therefore, Lin Han heard from Penny Hardaway that O'Neill's agent has now negotiated and renewed the contract with the Magic, but the progress is not very smooth.
However, neither O'Neal nor Hardaway were in a hurry. The two are now preparing for a major event, and the two never thought they would be separated.
But from the perspective of Lin Han's social experience for so many years.
O'Neill's contract is not that easy.
Now even Mourning dares to call out a 7-year 100 million contract, O’Neal calls a 7-year 120 million, is there no problem?
If Mourning is worth 100 million in 7 years and O’Neal is definitely worth 120 million in 7 years, but what happens to Hardaway after the Magic renewed O’Neal?
There is only one contract that does not account for the salary cap, and Hardaway’s future contract must not be much lower than O’Neill.
When the two of them surrendered more than 15 million contracts, what about the team's future salary cap?
Without space, there is no reinforcement, and the team cannot be reinforced, Hardaway will not be happy.
But if he does not meet O'Neill's requirements, O'Neill will certainly not be happy.
Does it make Hardaway happy or O'Neill happy?
Magic is not the same as the Hornets. The Hornets have no money, but the Magic has no room. Although the salary cap has risen sharply in the past two years, who knows whether it will continue to rise in the future.
For the Magic, in order to maintain the team's reinforcement space, O'Neal had better reduce his salary slightly.
Although the management and fans of the Magic are not well-known among others in NBA.
But Magic's management and fans are really management and fans with pursuit and ambition!
It really needs to be a group of people who have no ambitions at all. They can't do the kind of thing that the team almost reached the finals and sprayed the team at home.
Therefore, Lin Han has always been clear that whether they are O'Neill or Hardaway, they are actually very satisfied with the Magic's management and fans.
It’s not a joke, it’s really satisfying, and I feel that it is a very happy thing to be able to use a group of fans and management who are as ambitious as myself.
It is precisely because the relationship between O'Neill and Hardaway and the Magic management is very consistent. Now O'Neill has only one year's contract in theory, just like Mourning, but no one wants to pursue O'Neill, it is impossible. The pursuit is still reliable.
Even if Moning doesn’t work, isn’t Mutombo still there?
Therefore, O'Neill and Hardaway, both of them, look like a good play to see who will be spent on Mo Ning. They are completely unaware that they are actually one of the protagonists.
"Lin, Jerry West is really dare, you Lakers have a Nick, you want to change to Mourning?"
Now when NBA is crazy because of Munning's attribution, O'Neill and Hardaway took Bowen on vacation in Los Angeles.
Of course, along with Lin Han, O'Neill, Hardaway and Bowen, the Lakers' Van Exel, Aron Williams and Antonio Harvey.
NBA players like to come to Los Angeles during the offseason. The City of Angels is pretty good in every way.
However, this year Lin Han's vacation was a little different. This time they said that they were together on vacation. In fact, they were jointly training and training while on vacation.
After the finals, Hardaway went directly to Lin Han, hoping to work together in the offseason this year.
Hardaway said that the one-on-one offensive skills that he was about to throw away were picked up again.
Lin Han is the strongest one-on-one player in the whole NBA, and practicing with Lin Han is the best.
This is Hardaway.
As for O'Neill, with his lazy personality, how could he train hard during the offseason.
This big man is now holding various newspapers mocking Lin Han and the Lakers' delusions.
"It's not that I look down on you, you are very good, and the Hornets really can't keep Mo Ning, but the Lakers use you to rob you, but I don't think Nick can consider other teams. There is no need to leave Lin the most. Good chips and dragged here"
O'Neill whispered to Van Exel that he hadn't finished speaking, and he quickly hit a basketball on his face.
Fortunately, this fat man is really flexible enough to avoid it.
"Lin, I'm telling the truth. If Nick drags on like this, he will have less and less choice. If he is your brother, you have to bear with your brother for not having a good way out for you in the future."
"Dead fat man, you think I don't know what you are thinking, if you want a championship, you have to beat the Bulls!"
O'Neill smiled a little embarrassed when he heard Lin Han say that.
"Lin, that is not the case. Last season we lost to the Bulls because of inexperience. It is definitely our magic to enter the finals on behalf of the East in the new season!"
O'Neill is very confident. In Lin Han's view, it is simply a mystery.
However, you are training well.
Never practice hard, and always do the kind of dream that kills Jordan, and is still an enhanced version of Jordan?
Jordan and I are both hard-working brothers and can cry you next season, believe it or not!
Lin Han mourned in silence for Hardaway, and it was a real tragedy. He encountered such a giant baby who likes to play smart.
"Perry, let's take a break first"
After Lin Han and Hardaway ended the match, they directly sat down on the training ground like O'Neal.
"Speaking from the news, it seems that the Bulls are also pursuing Mo Ning"
"The Bulls are so deducted and willing to provide Moning with a 7-year 100 million contract? If you can't provide Moning with hundreds of millions of contracts, it can only be used for one year."
"Jordan, the highest-paid salary of the Bulls, is less than 4 million. Pippen's basic salary contract is still three years old. The current salary structure of the Bulls is very healthy. It is possible to give the big contract to Moning. After the expiration of the Pippen contract, Don’t renew the contract, or simply switch back to a strong rookie when Pippen’s contract expires.

"Pippen's 7-year 20 million contract really didn't know what to say"
What else can I say?
Of course, it can only be said that a huge contribution has been made for the Bulls!
Pippen's greed then pitted himself, and he also succeeded Jordan and the Bulls.
A championship-level roster like the Bulls can actually meet Molin's renewal requirements. It is really thanks to Jordan and Pippen who now add up to less than 7 million in salary.
"Morning's deal is very lively now, but in fact there are not many teams that can renew Mourning. Many teams are privately persuading whether Mourning can cut his salary."
"How could it be possible to leave the Hornets if Mo Ning is willing to lower his salary"
"That's why Mourning's trade is deadlocked? A team with good chips can't afford such a big salary. I'm not sure that Mourning will renew the contract and won't give away his chips."
"So, the news I got from Jerry West, now that Mourning’s deal looks hilarious, in fact, after Mourning rejected the pay cut option, there aren’t many really valuable offers, and now the Hornets are serious The only two offers considered are the Bulls’ Kokocci + 1995 and 1997 draft picks for Mourning, and the Heat’s Glen + 1995 draft picks for Mourning."
Lin Han also sighed after speaking.
It's not easy for the Lakers to get Mo Ning, it should be said that it is almost impossible.
"Kukoch and Glen Rice are really good, but Kukoch is much better than Glen Rice in the playoffs. Glen Rice's defense is too bad, the offense is all about the feel, and Bai Chang has a big chunk. "
The 28-year-old Glen Rice is really not very popular in the NBA. As a No. 4 rookie in 1989, he is now holding 20 points per year, but he has not entered an All-Star once, and his career has been difficult. In the two playoffs, Glen Rice's performance in these two playoffs was worse than once.
According to the current criticism, standard defensive black holes, offensive brushes, and brushes can only be brushed in the regular season. In the playoffs, even the brush cannot be brushed. A player with 20 points per game in the regular season can only play in the playoffs. With an average of 13 points and two playoff trips, all shooting percentages are still below 40%.
And Kukotka, even if Kukotka's reputation in the international basketball are not seen.
Looking at the performance of the two players in the last season, Kukoch averaged 16+5+5 per game in the regular season, except for the playoffs in the finals, which averaged 14+7+6. This is beside Jordan and played in the finals team. The data!
As far as the gold content of the data is concerned, Kukoc can explode the score-only data of Glenless.
"Kukochi is one of the core of the Bulls' offensive organization now, really willing to"
"This is the Bulls this season. The Bulls next season do not need Kukotka very much."
The next season's Bulls, Jordan will get the ball back, and Kukotka's value in the team will be greatly reduced.
Lin Han believes that the Bulls used Kukoch to trade Mourning with Jordan's consent.
"Lin, according to what you said, Mo Ning might really go to the bull?"
O'Neal, who was still grinning just now, had a rather dignified look on his face at this time.
By giving Jordan one more Mourning, the Bulls' only inside weakness has become a strong point.
In the current NBA, Mourning is indeed not the top line. In the current NBA, the top line is four centers and two big forwards.
However, even the four centers and the two big forwards, they dare not say that they can teach Mo Ning one-on-one!
O'Neill is considered to be one of the most experienced players in playing Mourning, but even O'Neal, at most, is only four or four games with Mourning.
Last season, O'Neal and Mourning played against each other three times. Although the Magic won all three times, O'Neal himself only won twice.
One big win, one small win.
Another time it was a draw, if it wasn’t for the Magic to win, that time could even be considered a minor loss for O’Neal.
This is still the record that Mourning led the team when Larry Johnson was out last season. If you put Mourning on the Bulls team, and with the help of Jordan and Pippen on the defensive end, Magic wants to rush out of the east. I can hope that Hardaway will really be able to recover his personal offense next season.
"If Mo Ning really went to the Bulls, the Bulls next season are really terrible."
Not to mention the Lakers players sitting on the floor, even Bowen, who came back from Europe, felt a moment of emotion.
"Bruce, are you really going to do magic?"
If Mo Ning really went to the Bulls, the pressure on the Lakers and even the entire league is naturally huge.
But this is someone else's business, and no matter how great the pressure is, he can't help it.
Otherwise, let the Hornets not accept the bull's offer? This is unrealistic.
Although he has no way to decide where Mo Ning is going, he still wants to fight for the whereabouts of his friends.
Bowen is a player he has always coveted. In the legendary system, Bowen is a bronze legendary player!
So, since he came to the Lakers last season, he has been inviting Bowen, but Bowen has been refusing him.
Originally this season he was still preparing to continue to invite, but Bowen told him directly that he had decided to go magic.
Seriously, he was really unwilling.
"Lin, you dig a corner in front of me and Perry, isn't it great?"
"Shaq, it's my horn that you and Perry are digging, obviously it's my first!"
Well, it seems that it is really Lin Hanxian, O'Neill has awkward choice and looked at Bowen silently like Hardaway.
O'Neill doesn't really value Bowen, a water dispenser, but Perry wants to have a role in protecting his brother, like the role of the Lakers' Aron Williams, so they want to sign Bowen. The team comes.
Therefore, even if Bowen was really poached by Lin Han again, he would lose a little face, in fact it does not matter.
"I still go to the magic, the Lakers really don't need me"
Bowen smiled bitterly.
He is a brother to Hardaway and Lin Han, and his relationship with Lin Han is even better, but he really doesn't want to go to the Lakers.
Now the Lakers have no room for development in the second and third positions. He doesn't want to care for Lin Han like Aron or Antonio.
He still has some pursuits.
Although Hardaway did not promise him a position, in Magic, he has much more room for development.
Entering NBA, he can let Lin Han or Hardaway brothers help, but he will gain a firm foothold in NBA, and even hope to get a big contract in the future, which also depends on his own strength.
And this needs room to play.
In the Lakers, Lin Han can defend himself against the strongest outside.
But in Magic, although Perry's defense is also very good, but Perry is not Lin Han after all, he can help Perry defend the opponent's outside arrow.
This is also his value, this is the stage where he performs.
Bowen was very determined to go to the magic, it should be said that it was very determined, which also made Lin Han no way.
Can't you tie Bowen away?
If you really want to do this, Hardaway will not sit idly by even if she feels guilty for digging a corner.
Therefore, after the finals, Lin Han and the Lakers in the trading market and free agent market, it can be said that they have met twice in a row.
Mo Ning saw that it was impossible to get it, and Bowen, who had been coveted, ran with Hardaway.
Of course, the Lakers are not without gains in the free market.
For example, the team's former superstar Dominic Wilkins soon announced a two-year contract with the Lakers for a two-year, $1 million contract.
Now 35-year-old Wilkins is quite degraded in strength compared to his peak.
After winning the championship, he was ready to retire directly.
In the end, however, under the persuasion of the team and Lin Han, he accepted a two-year contract.
Wilkins' current strength, even the sixth player in the championship team can not play, the defense has become a black hole.
As long as he stands on the field, he will inevitably become the target of others.
But it doesn't matter. Wilkins' value is not originally a major responsibility, as long as it can be used under special circumstances.
Just like this year's magician.
Magicians are also seriously degraded.
But this year's Western Conference, without the Magician's pass, Lin Han can't play that kind of offense, and can't eliminate the Rockets.
Such a veteran will always be worth a salary as long as it works at a critical time.
Therefore, even the Magician has not retired, but continues to renew the contract with the team.
The stay of the Magicians and Wilkins can't hide the fact that the Lakers still lack an inside strongman.
Compared with the finals, the Lakers still haven't improved.
In the situation where Moning has become increasingly slim, Jerry West is already looking for new goals.
With Jerry West's character ~ EbookFREE.me ~ he is not the kind of person who does not have a plan.
Even, he heard Jerry West say that Jerry West had reached a consensus with the preliminary plan.
Lin Han was very surprised when he heard the name of Jerry West's plan.
Because this guy didn't tell him that way before!
And it was when Jerry West privately met his preparatory plan and reached an agreement with the preparatory plan, the League heard a news that almost shocked the world.
The Chicago Bulls and Charlotte Hornets formally concluded a deal between Mourning and Kukoc!
Known as the first center under the four centers, Mourning eventually fell to Chicago!
On the day the deal was concluded, Lin Han received a phone call from Jordan excited, excited and laughing.
That tone seemed to have succeeded in revenge.
"Lin, next season, the Bulls will win!"
