Super Small Forward

: 14. Kupchak is a bit annoying

   After the regular season, the Lakers organized a party in accordance with the convention after reaching the playoffs. No matter what, they still made the playoffs this year.

  Party, you have to drink some wine. After drinking, Howard told his friend about his unhappy things in the Lakers, and his friend sold the news to the famous sports TV station ESPN.

Liu Ren also drank some wine. The only people who drank with him were Thackeray, Jamison, Blake, Artest, Clark and others. The others were not very familiar with each other. These people cooperated more in these two games. , Began to get acquainted. Good old guys like Gasol and Kobe Bryant failed to come due to injury, and it is impossible for them to play in the playoffs this year.

   After a few drinks, Liu Ren returned to his small apartment.

   "It's getting more and more inconvenient." Liu Ren glanced downstairs and shook several reporters from time to time.

In these two games, Liu Ren played very well. If he were placed on a team without Kobe and Howard, he would have been blown up. Despite this, he still got a lot of attention, but he devoted himself to it these days. In the last regular season, I didn't pay much attention to it.

   In this era of the information explosion, a player who has been sitting on the bench has got a chance because of the injury of the starter and the main substitute. He broke out and cut two consecutive 25+ games. This is very inspirational, OK?

   Especially since this player is still a Chinese, it is even more touching. Specifically, why is this touching? Liu Ren, who finally got a few days off, read a lot of news and comments but did not understand, but from the fans’ replies, he just felt touching...

   Nowadays, the news channels are very developed. After an event that people are interested in, even the protagonist of the event may not have reflected what he did. People all over the world already know about it.

   For example, what Howard and his friends said was slightly polished by ESPN, and the title was changed to "The Lakers Infighting, the New King Wants to Flee Los Angeles."

   Someone questioned that this is fake news? Who could say such a brain-dead thing just before the start of the playoffs?

   People's attention on ESPN skyrocketed, and they immediately responded. This is the news from the two news sources that sold news to ESPN. It is said that Howard and his best friend said this. As for who the source of the news is, I’m sorry for the inconvenience. I don’t believe Howard said this. We can go to him and confront...

   Liu Ren saw this news and knew that Howard would become the happy beast in the eyes of fans starting this year. He believes that there is a 90% chance that this statement was made by Howard, rather than a fraud.

   As for the Howard Liu Ren later knew, he would definitely do something like this. These things had happened once in the months before he left Magic.

   It is said that Hollywood screenwriters are very good, but those screenwriters will have to be crushed by the NBA. The three superstars James, Anthony, and Howard have performed good plays in the past few years so that those screenwriters dare not write like this.

I already knew that these things couldn’t be stopped. Liu Ren’s life was the same as in the past few days. He got up in the morning to watch the news, took a taxi to the team training hall, went to the training hall to do strength training, and started to master the strength of this body. Then practice shooting for a while in the afternoon.

   Shooting training is expensive, and persistence is the most important.

Liu Ren seemed to be back when he was twelve or thirteen years old. At that time, he just had the strength to make three-pointers. For him, playing basketball has changed from playing basketball every day to throwing the ball into the basket from the basket. Have more fun and more passion. Since then, I have dreamed of becoming a professional basketball player. I spend my spare time in basketball every day.

   "Playing" with boring things as interesting things, this boring is reduced a lot, and it seems to be really fun. It’s the same as a fat man who exercises every day. You may not see any changes in fat on the day of exercise, or even for several days, but you can exercise for a while every day, knowing that you are making progress, and treating this progress as fun. Have fun.

Liu Ren shoots the same number of baskets every day. On the first day, he made 100 goals in a group, and made ten mid-range shots and ten three-pointers in five positions. At the beginning, he made at most three shots from each position in each group. collapsed.

   You need to know that even Sadie Thackeray, who is known as the "sky-defying" shooting ability, and Howard, the king of free throws, made more than 50% of his three-pointers during training and more than 70% of his free throws.

   But because it is too bad, there is no room for worse to make him worse, as long as the training will make progress, and it is the improvement that can be seen by the naked eye...

   Kupchak is a bit annoying now.

A hidden genius appeared in his own team. Now the genius has exploded. Logically speaking, as the first boss of the team besides the owner, Kupchak should be the happiest one, but he found that this genius contract is about to expire. Up.

   It's okay if it's due. The rookie's basic salary contract is about to expire, and the team has the priority to renew.

However, the priority to renew the right has now been leaked out. The rookies in the first round are okay. The second-round picks who have signed a three to four year contract are not afraid of being robbed. Just like Liu Ren, he only signed 1+1 for two years Contract rookies, if they play talent, are most likely to be robbed.

   Thinking of this Kupchak, he wanted to get the fat man Morey out and give him a punch. This wretched fat man was too smart. Last summer he did something that would have a huge impact on future second-round rookies.

   Every manager knows that there is this rule, but everyone uses it as a rule to reduce the new contract of a super second-round pick that expires, and no one uses it to dig people.

   When Morey offered Jeremy Lin and Asik a three-year contract of 25 million yuan to occupy the maximum salary space in the third year, the general manager of the Knicks and the Bulls directly scolded their mother.

   The Knicks and Bulls are the two teams competing for the championship level. Where can UU read www.uukanshu.com make up the minimum salary of 15.27 million last year? Even if this space is in the summer of 2014, it will not be freed! In those days, Asik only played for two years without a big bird clause. Jeremy Lin only played with the Knicks for one year without a big bird clause. The Knicks and Bulls, whose salaries have long exceeded the salary cap, can only provide them with early-bird wages. Those with a base salary of 1.2 million that year, the Knicks and Bulls can only offer them a contract price of less than 2 million and are not qualified to match. Morey's poison contract.

The full name of the so-called big bird clause is the Larry Bird clause. When renewing the contract with the team, if the team has played for more than three consecutive years before then, it is eligible to use the big bird clause and will be ignored when the contract is renewed. Salary cap renewal.

The early bird clause is far worse. It applies to players who have played in a team within two years. If the team wants to renew his contract, even if the team’s salary exceeds the salary cap, it can ignore the salary cap and use The renewal of one hundred and seventy-five percent of the salary in the previous year is regarded as compensation for players willing to stay on the team.

Last year, Kupchak was still the one who watched the Knicks and the Bulls jokes. The second-round picks with tens of millions of annual salary levels are no more than one or two per year. As the league’s top team, the Lakers, the Knicks and the Bulls have been rare and strong for more than a decade. Unlike the two-year-old team, the Lakers are rarely in the playoffs for a few years. Kupchak thinks it is difficult for the Lakers to have that kind of second-round pick, so he is happy to watch a joke.

   But it has only been less than a year, and this matter is likely to fall on him. This is really embarrassing. Kupchak looked at Liu Ren’s team file and couldn’t find it over and over again...
