Chapter 134: [The beginning of holding a group]

　　In July, in addition to investigating rookies, NBA teams also recruited troops in the free market.
　　 After Jordan retired, the situation of the league's west is strong and the east is weak.
　　 This summer, the already strong Western team, actually started a star group, everything started from the Los Angeles Lakers, they formed the "Four Kings"!
　　O'Neal always wanted to get a high-paying contract extension from the Lakers, and both parties made certain commitments. The Lakers management told O'Neill that if he could persuade Karl Malone and Gary Payton to lower their salary to the team, they would give him a little care for the renewal.
　　 So, as soon as O'Neill's free market opened, he called for those two future Hall of Fame stars to join.
　　 This is not a simple job, Malone wrote a legend in Utah, and Payton is the same in Seattle. O'Neill not only wants them to leave, but also makes them willing to get a low salary.
　　O'Neill succeeded, his legs were particularly thick, and he seemed very comfortable to hold.
　　 Karl Malone and Gary Peyton are willing to give up the high salary to join the Lakers, apparently to get a championship ring at the end of their careers.
　　 Many fans expressed their excitement that the Lakers will break the Bulls' 72 wins in the regular season next season.
　　 Indeed, with the "OK combination" O'Neill and Kobe, the Lakers already have 4 superstars, this is the first time in history.
　　Payton's annual salary was $13 million last season, and now he is only $4.9 million in the Lakers. Last season he averaged 20.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 8.3 assists and 1.7 steals per game. He shot 45.4% from the field.
　　Malone has been playing for the Jazz, with an annual salary of $19 million last season, and only a poor $1.5 million for the Lakers in the new season. He averaged 20.6 points, 7.8 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.7 steals. He played 81 times and shot 46.2%.
　　Although Payton will be 35 years old and Malone 40 years old at the beginning of the 2003-04 season, there is no problem with their skills and physical fitness. They will play point guard and power forward in the Lakers, which is the weak position the Lakers lost to the Spurs last season.
　　The Lakers lineup is so strong that other teams in the West intending to compete have also been unable to sit still. The most powerful arms race in history has begun.
　　The Dallas Mavericks first introduced Antoine Jamison. The cattleman once and Kobe had a strong share of the game and scored 50+ in two consecutive games.
　　The Mavericks also exchanged the "fat-headed" Anthony Walker who loves to make three-pointers from the Green Shirts. Walker has averaged 20+ per game for many seasons, and can rebound and respond to passes.
　　The King of Sacramento recruited Brad Miller to fill Chris Weber's injured vacancy. When Weber came back, the lineup was luxurious.
　　The Timberwolves, who have always been known for stunting, also shot unexpectedly.
　　 The defending champion Spurs knew they wouldn’t be able to reinforce the lineup, so they were planning a big four-team deal to get the Knicks’ Sprewell. However, the Timberwolves slammed the ball and destroyed the Spurs' signing.
　　 In the draft conference, the Timberwolves first started to the Spurs' rookie Endy-Ebi. This time they once again played the role of digger.
The four parties involved in the exchange are the Timberwolves, Knicks, 76ers and Eagles.
The Timberwolves got their favorite Sprewell, the Knicks got Van Horn, the 76ers ushered in the No. 2 scorer "big dog" Robinson who can assist Iverson, the most loss-making is the Hawks, they exchanged A defender Brandon who became famous but can't even play now.
　　 Then, the Timberwolves introduced the famous parallel champion, center Olovokandi.
　　 In addition, the Timberwolves also replaced the Bucks' point guards Tim Kassel and Elvin Johnson with Joe Smith and Piller.
Very long and ugly. Cassell, known as "ET", is one of the famous "three musketeers" in the Bucks. He has scored about 20 points in consecutive seasons. He has averaged 9 assists per game in a single season. Performance. He has not been selected in the All-Star Game, but has the strength of a star.
In just one week, the Timberwolves on the edge of the playoffs were reborn.
　　 Plus "Wolf King" Garnett, draftsman Troy Hudson, star pitcher Szebiak, defensive forwards Trenton Hassel, Mark Madsen, the team talented.
　　ESPN expert group said that next season, the Timberwolves are the only team that still has the strength and the Lakers to compete. They also have four star players.
　　 After seeing these news, Wang Jun was dumbfounded.
　　 It seems that I think too much. How can the Nets win the championship compared to these All-Star teams?
　　 Even if they break out in the east, the Nets have to defeat the perverted Lakers and Timberwolves.
　　 Last season's champion Spurs' "GDP combination", the Mavericks' "Trident", and the King's "Princeton" are also not vegetarian.
　　 Agent Ryan Hughes brought good news to Wang Jun. The Nets will hold a signing ceremony and hold a meeting with new players to show him his new jersey.
　　Wang Jun won a two-year contract with a total amount of 1.3 million US dollars. The second year is a team option.
　　 is also a second-round rookie. Last season, Boozer and the Cavaliers signed for three years. Capono and Wang Jun, who are ahead of him, both have two-year contracts. The league outside is really not as good as the inside.
　　If he can't play well in the first year, the Nets can not execute the contract for the second year, and then the salary of about 700,000 will not be paid. By then, he will become a completely free agent.
　　It is not difficult to see from the contract that the UU reading team www.uukanshu.com does not believe that Wang Jun will be able to hit it at once. Once Stells is healthy again, his value of use becomes smaller. The Nets still like the "mosquitoes" with the eighth overall pick in 1996.
　　If you can't play well, Wang Jun will have to work hard for the next job by this time next year.
　　Ryan Hughes explained very clearly that he had no choice but to sign a contract, which is already the best interest he can fight for.
　　 Wang Junsi has no doubt about the strength of this old agent.
David called and cared about Wang Jun's situation and told him: "Don't worry, you are still very young. You can definitely get stable rotation time with the shooting ability in the Nets. As long as you seize the opportunity to perform, they will use you , I can’t wait to watch the Nets’ game in the new season."
　　 "Lei analysis said I might become a starter." Wang Jun smiled.
"Of course, Kittles is more suitable than you as a substitute, so that the Nets' second team attack is guaranteed. Kittles has hidden injuries, and playing the substitute can also reduce his pressure." David's view and Hughes completely Consistently, the Nets are willing to trade, also out of consideration in this regard.
　　 "I'm relieved to hear that."
　　David is very optimistic about Wang Jun. "Trust yourself, don’t be afraid, you play well in the Summer League. As long as you have the right teammates, you can play at a super level. The Nets system is best for you, Kidd is one of the best point guards, starting None of the three teammates can relax the defense. Who do you think your opponents will be short if they trap them? Maybe you score easier than NCAA."
　　 The answer is of course Wang Jun and blue-collar center Collins, he is confident to play the rookie season.
