Chapter 291 Parting ways
Author: Different Sparks
"Shu Hao, you should know what conditions the team gave for Allen's last contract extension. I admit that you have paid a lot for the team, but the team has not treated you badly. In addition, your agent directly opened it to me.
After paying a price of 70 million, can you tell me what confidence he has to offer such a figure? Is your contribution to the team higher than Greg, higher than Chris, higher than Allen? For all of you
The conditions for his contract renewal have been carefully considered by the team and are not too harsh."
"Brother Zhuang, I understand these principles, but is it wrong for me to want to get a high salary?"
"There is nothing wrong. There is no right or wrong in this matter, and it cannot be measured by right or wrong. Everyone has a different perspective, and what they see and believe are different. But Shu Hao, I only want to say one thing, high salary is fine, but are you sure
Can you withstand the pressure that a maximum salary brings to you? And whether the team fulfills you or you fulfill the team, I hope you can think about this issue clearly."
Da Zhuang's words actually made it very clear. As for what the other party thought, he really had no choice.
"Brother Zhuang, thank you for your trust this season. I understand what you mean, but I still want to try. I think I can do it."
"Okay, if you insist, I'll bless you too."
I'm really sorry for this result.
Seeing the confidence and stubbornness in Lin Shuhao's eyes in front of him, Da Zhuang couldn't help but think of the look in Bennett's eyes when he walked up to him and said he wanted to participate in the draft before joining the Timberwolves.
On June 20, 2015, Shuhao Lin posted a long post on his Twitter announcing that he would become a free agent this summer. As soon as this tweet came out, it immediately became the hottest topic in the league.
The popularity continued to rise, and then the Timberwolves official website also updated the notice. The content was to thank Shuhao Lin for his contribution to the team last season and wish him good results in his subsequent NBA career.
Because the Timberwolves successfully defended their title, Shuhao Lin, who averaged 16.7 points and 9.4 assists per game last season, suddenly became a big fish in the free market this summer. Someone has previously sorted out some of the heavyweight stars who entered the free market this summer.
James, Duncan, Millsap,
Leonard, Aldridge, etc., of course Shuhao Lin is also included in this list, and many media predict that these people will complete the contract extension with the team, even though the media has been hyping the contract extension between the Timberwolves and Shuhao Lin before.
problem, but there are still many people who firmly believe that the contract renewal can definitely be completed.
As soon as the news that the contract renewal was not completed was revealed, it immediately attracted the attention of many teams.
There are too many teams that want to operate at the No. 1 position this summer. In fact, this is also the reason why Tanner is so open.
For a time, Lin Shuhao became the focus of pursuit by many teams.
Da Zhuang shook his head and laughed while watching the news at home. In fact, this has already changed the wheel of history. In his previous life, Lin Shuhao was also looking for a next home at this time. In the end, Da Zhuang vaguely remembered that he signed a contract with the Hornets, but in reality
The contract price is only a few million.
Da Zhuang has a hunch that Lin Shuhao's wish to get a big contract this time will definitely come true, but he doesn't know who will be the lucky one.
God, Lord Buddha, you can’t blame me if someone gets tricked. I really didn’t mean it this time.
I originally wanted to let the meat rot in my own pot, but I couldn't stand the fact that the other party had a shady agent!
There are more and more news about Shu Hao Lin's next destination. On June 25, the league selected the 2015 draft picks.
The Knicks, who had the worst record in the league last season, got the No. 1 pick as they wished, while the Lakers and 76ers got the second and third picks just like in their previous lives.
It’s over, Downs is gone!
Will the Knicks choose this guy? According to the information about this draft that Da Zhuang has read, the Knicks will choose Towns 90% of the time. I hope the Knicks will choose Towns, otherwise this will happen again.
It would be a huge sin to lose Towns' No. 1 pick.
Sitting at home, Da Zhuang thought boredly as he watched the Knicks management celebrating winning the No. 1 pick on TV.
Just then the phone rang. I picked it up and saw that it was the guy from Milt.
"Chen, are you going to New York tomorrow?"
"Milt, haven't I told you about this in advance? I won't be participating in this draft. You can take someone with you. What's the fuss about a No. 30 pick? I'm on a flight tomorrow morning.
Fly directly to London, Kelly will be waiting for me there, we have made an appointment a long time ago, and please don’t disturb me during this period, I will never answer your call."
"Who should I choose?"
"I don't know who to choose. I choose Karl Anthony or D'Angelo. It won't be our turn. You can make your own choice. It doesn't matter anyway."
After hanging up the phone, Da Zhuang also smiled helplessly. Damn it, how do I know who to pick? He only remembered a few people from the 2015 draft, and they were all ranked in the top ten. The Timberwolves can't get their turn.
.
At 7 a.m. on June 26, 2015, Da Zhuang transferred from Apollo to Los Angeles and then flew directly to London. On the same day, the 2015 NBA Draft was held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Da Zhuang only learned about the actual situation of the draft through local news after arriving in London and meeting Kelly. Basically, there was no difference from what he predicted. Of course, history must have changed a lot due to his own reasons.
Towns, the No. 1 pick selected by the Timberwolves in his previous life, is still the No. 1 pick, but he has become the Knicks.
The Lakers still chose Russell. The third overall pick belongs to the 76ers, or Okafor becomes the third overall pick like in the previous life.
And when he saw the guy Milt chose for the Timberwolves, he shook his head and laughed.
This guy really has some ideas. Delon Wright from Los Angeles, California was selected by Milt in the 30th place. Da Zhuang vaguely remembers reading this guy's information. Logically speaking, it is impossible to fall to the 30th place.
The Timberwolves gave up directly in the second round.
With the end of the draft, the door to the new season's free trade market has officially opened. Thirty teams will conduct various operations in preparation for the new season. In addition to the free market, transactions between the teams
It will also unfold accordingly, and in the following days, various transaction rumors will be flooded in a lot of media news almost every day.
The first transaction after the door opened was considered a blockbuster transaction, and it immediately attracted almost all media reporters who paid attention to the trading market.
