Chapter 1011 Presti's Distress



Grant Hill is okay. Although he is getting older and his state has obviously declined, he has a humble personality, is kind to others, has comprehensive skills, and has a stable style of play. Basically, you can’t find anything to blame from him. Let’s talk about a model of professional players It's not an exaggeration, except for the injury that makes people a little worried, but signing him as a veteran, as a useful supplement to the team's main lineup, there is no problem.

But Stephen Marbury is not flattering, his style of play is unique, and he is famous in the league.Husband-type player, as a point guard, basically you can’t see him passing the ball. It’s not that he never passes the ball at the last moment, and he has been the team’s boss for a long time, with a rebellious personality. To the point where everyone is screaming, I went to the Boston Celtics last season to hug my thigh and wanted to win a championship, but I didn't win it. willing.

However, Stephen Marbury can be the team's third point guard, which is what the team needs at this point. In fact, for such a veteran player, every championship team needs it very much. Last season, Yao Ming and Kurt Thomas also played an important role in the second half of the team, especially in maintaining the atmosphere of the team's locker room, which is indispensable.

Now the team has Stephen, Yao Ming, Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, Serge Ibaka, Kurt Thomas, Coupard, Travis Outlaw, Earl Watson , Du Fei, and Nick Collinson are eleven contracted players who need a second backup point guard, a third center, and a second shooting guard, who are still in training. Von Weaver Presti also intends to give He has a basic salary to let him stay. After all, although he didn't perform much last season, he trained very hard.

However, the rookie Omega Casspi has not been signed by the team. He has come to the team to report. The scout team led by Hanlingen is conducting a comprehensive assessment of him to assess his position and development potential in the team. If he is signed again, the team will only have two spots. In the past, at this time, he would have to choose from the free agents of the team's trial training, but this time since many people came to the door, it will not be so troublesome. [

While the Supersonics are signing contracts, other teams are also trading. After the Orlando Magic failed in the Finals, they are also trying to find ways to strengthen. Given that the team lacks top swingmen In reality, they traded Ralph Alston, Courtney Lee and Tony Barty for Vince Carter from the New Jersey Nets.

The Los Angeles Clippers also exchanged Zach Randolph for Quentin Richardson from the Memphis Grizzlies. The most surprising thing is the big move of the Detroit Pistons. Ben Gordon, who shined in the post-game, paid a five-year contract of 500 million yuan. The Bulls did not match it, and then signed "Brow Hero" Charlie Villanueva. Because the Houston Rockets chose a younger David Anderson gave up Chris Wilcox, so the Detroit Pistons signed Chris Wilcox for another two years and 600 million.

In fact, it’s not that Presti hasn’t moved Chris Wilcox’s mind, but the injury of being traded away made Chris Wilcox not interested in contacting here at all, and Presti’s idea became delusion.

Jason Kidd signed a three-year, $300 contract with the Dallas Mavericks, and the Houston Rockets, who had been messing with the Supersonics at this time, finally received their retribution. Their team's Ron Artest was traded by the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers signed with a five-year contract of [-] million yuan, which is generally considered to be worthwhile for the Lakers. Except for Ron Artest's slightly older age, this worth can be said to be worthwhile. It's cheap, and the direct purpose of the Lakers signing him is to defend Stephen. Trevor Ariza's defense is not bad when facing other people, but against Stephen, it is really bad.

At this time, the Houston Rockets signed Trevor Ariza with an almost identical contract. Although Trevor Ariza is far inferior to Ron Artest in terms of personal ability, he is young and talented after all. , and has a wealth of competition experience, this signing can not be wrong, but it gives people a feeling of fighting spirit.

Since the Seattle Supersonics won the championship, they naturally became the target of public criticism in the league. The Cleveland Cavaliers exchanged for the Shaquille O'Neal. The team traded for Vince Carter, also wanting to confront Stephen. The Los Angeles Lakers chose Ron Artest because he is one of the few players in the league who can compete with Stephen on the outside.

All teams that want to win the championship are targeting the Seattle SuperSonics, and the Seattle Supersonics need to continue to strengthen compared to last season if they want to stand out from the encirclement of so many teams.

But until now, apart from changing a more famous head coach, the team has not had any major movements. It has also lost two main rotation players, Jarrett Jack and Damien Wilkins. This phenomenon is natural. It aroused the concern of the fans, and many fans left messages on the official website, hoping that the team would not be satisfied with the current strength, increase the strength of signings, and not reduce the team's salary expenses because of the construction of the new stadium.

In this regard, Presti stood up and said that the construction funds for the new stadium have already been in place, and it is not related to the team's operating funds. It will not affect the team's reinforcement work. As for signings, it is currently in progress, please rest assured .

Although he made an external statement, Presti also knows that the patience of the fans is limited, so the signing work must be accelerated, so that the fans can see the team's actions and naturally feel relieved. At this time, the Scouting Affairs Department I finished the inspection of Omega Casspi, and I think it is worth signing. After all, it is only the last first-round rookie. The salary is very low, basically the same as the basic salary, and it can be used for four consecutive years. It is indeed a very cost-effective deal. Well, Presti likes this kind of cultivation game the most, so after reading the investigation report, he immediately gave Omega Casspi a contract.

But this alone is not enough to appease the fans. Among the three people who are in contact with Allen Iverson, Grant Hill, and Stephen Marbury, Presti thought about it. Among the three, Allen Iverson is the most It can attract fans and has the greatest reputation, but once it is introduced, the risk to be taken is also great, because the cooperation with most of him is not very good.

The problem with Grant Hill is that you don’t know his physical condition. No matter how low or short the contract is for him, if his vitreous body is injured again, it is very likely that he will retire, and he will not even contribute at all. In terms of factors, his risk is the greatest, but he can be picky in other aspects.

As for Stephon Marbury, there is no physical problem. Although his performance in the New York Knicks was not very good, he has strength, and although he did not perform well in the Boston Celtics last season, he did nothing. The problem, the only worry is how much of his state is still there, but this can be investigated.

After the team signed Omega Casspi, plus Jerome James, who is worthless except for occupying the list, the team only has two places, so they can only give up Von Weaver, but Even if two people are signed, the pressure on the team's salary this season is still very high, and it will definitely exceed the luxury tax. What should we do?Presti kept his eyes on Jerome James, whether to buy out his contract, or trade him to teams that want to free up salary space.

But buying out his contract requires the team to come up with a sum of money at once. In this case, it needs to apply to the boss. Thinking of this, Presti picked up the phone and dialed Chris Hansen. After Resty's briefing, Chris Hansen didn't say much, but told him that everything was for the purpose of enhancing the strength of the team and not to think too much about the luxury tax. The staff came to tell Presti that a fund of 1000 million US dollars had been transferred to the account. Presti immediately knew what the boss meant. Although he said so, no one was willing to pay luxury tax.

If Jerome James is bought out, the team will have three places, but who will be signed?
