I'm Really Playing Basketball Chapter 852

After the 2020 NBA season ended, the entire NBA breathed a sigh of relief.

To be fair, for the NBA, this year's epidemic has brought the biggest crisis to the NBA.

Because after the outbreak, NBA games have no audience, and this has a very huge impact on every team.

Especially for teams that pay the luxury tax a lot, like the Warriors.

The total salary of the Warriors in the 2019-20 season has reached 195 million. According to the super luxury tax payment method, the Warriors will pay a luxury tax of nearly 400 million US dollars this season. With the salary, the salary expenditure of the Warriors this season has reached 100 million. 585 million.

In fact, because of Barnes' retirement, Roger's base salary, and Devin Booker's trade, the Warriors' luxury tax and total salary have been much less this season. Last season, the Warriors even paid 5% in luxury tax. More than 100 million yuan is close to 600 million yuan, and the total salary expenditure exceeds 800 million yuan.

However, there were spectators at the Warriors' games last season.

Most of the ticket revenue of the audience belongs to the team. For example, in the regular season, only 6% needs to be handed in, and in the playoffs, 45% needs to be handed in. Even the 45% handed in in the playoffs, Most are also sent back to playoff teams in the form of rewards.

So, basically, the Warriors' ticket revenue is mostly theirs.

And the Warriors, how much ticket revenue per game?

As the most expensive and hottest team in the NBA, the average tickets for other teams are about 100-300 US dollars per game, while the Warriors' tickets per game exceed 1,200 US dollars.

This is still the regular season, so the Warriors' regular season ticket revenue per game exceeds 20 million US dollars, and the 41 home games in the regular season alone have more than 800 million US dollars in ticket revenue.

There is so much ticket revenue, which is why the Warriors dare to pay the super luxury tax so crazy.

It may seem unbelievable to say that the Warriors have paid more than nearly $900 million in luxury tax increases in one year.

However, the Warriors' revenue and expenditure, a season is still more revenue than expenditure.

All of this is based on Chen Xiao's huge influence. When Jordan retired and paraded, the average ticket price for a game exceeded 2,000 US dollars. Many people said that when Chen Xiao retired and paraded, the average ticket price could even exceed 3,000 US dollars.

What a huge income for the Warriors.

Without such revenue, the Warriors are left with broadcast revenue and some league revenue and sponsorship revenue.

A year adds up to less than $400 million in revenue.

The $400 million pays for $800 million in player salaries, plus expenses for coaches, staff, ground maintenance, training and other facilities.

Let's just say that because of the pandemic, the Warriors' fiscal deficit exceeded a staggering $600 million last season.

Such a deficit almost spit out more than half of the Warriors' profits in the past few years.

If the epidemic continues, the Warriors really dare not continue to be so crazy.

Therefore, the current epidemic is really worse for the Warriors.

And for the Warriors, the most terrifying thing is that everyone is not sure if the 2020-2021 season will end.

If the epidemic this season does not end, the Warriors will not dare to operate this summer at all.

In the summer of 2020, Klay's contract is about to expire. How will Klay's contract be given?

Klay has torn his cruciate ligament and is destined to miss at least one season. In this case, many people predict that the Warriors will definitely give up Klay.

Because of the renewal of Klay, the Warriors will inevitably pay more luxury tax next season. If fans are still not allowed to enter the stadium next season, then the Warriors' expenditure will be terrifying.

On the other side, Thick Eyebrow has a player option in 2020, and he can jump out of the contract this year.

For the thick eyebrows, if he wants to jump out of the contract and get a maximum contract, this will make it even worse for the Warriors.

So, after the 2020 NBA season is over, the entire league is breathing a sigh of relief that when this tough season is finally over, it's really tough for the Warriors and it's just beginning.

Of course, the difficulty for the Warriors is thick eyebrows and Klay.

Regarding Klay's contract renewal, let's just put it this way, most of the Warriors' management said they had no choice but to give up.

In fact, no one can say anything about this decision. Many experts say that it can only be said that Clay is unlucky.

This postseason for the Lakers and Warriors has been so unlucky.

Nongmei was absent due to the health regulations triggered in the playoffs. Chen Xiao and Klay were under great pressure, and the series between the Lakers and the Warriors was so intense.

In the end, the Lakers sacrificed Leonard and the Warriors sacrificed Klay.

Both teams are very unlucky.

Even Klay and Leonard have similar injuries and will miss a season.

It's just that Klay and Leonard seem to be in a similar situation, but in fact Klay is much worse, because Leonard executed his player option last year.

And Klay, for the Warriors' salary and the extension of Devin Booker, did not choose to implement his player option.

So Leonard renewed his contract before the injury, and Klay did not.

So after Klay's injury, many experts said that Klay must have regretted it.

You see, the Warriors don't want you now.

For a player over the age of 30, such an injury is deadly.

The Warriors are definitely not going to give Klay a big contract.

But is it really so?

Indeed, much of the voice within the Warriors was not to keep Klay.

But Chen Xiao, Jerry West, and head coach Kerr all pushed for keeping Clay.

Even if Klay had to truce for at least one season, Chen Xiao and the three hoped to keep Klay.

Kerr feels that Klay's shooting deserves such treatment, and Jerry West thinks so too. Klay's three-pointer is very rare. Even if he can't run and can only be a shooter, he can stay in the Warriors and be a super player. Three point shooter.

As for Chen Xiao, he would never allow the team to let Klay shed blood and tears.

Clay didn't opt out of his contract last year, so what if he dumped him this year?

What's more, the Warriors would never have achieved so much without Klay's contributions over the years.

So, for the Warriors, Klay is sure to keep.

The Warriors are like the Bulls of yesteryear.

The Bulls felt that Pippen was dead and wanted to get wheat, but Jordan strongly opposed it, and eventually became one of the ignition locks for the falling out between Joe and the Bulls.

And now the Warriors are pretty much the same.

As a team leader, I definitely hope to safeguard the interests of the meritorious teammates.

But teams have team interests.

Before the Warriors could make money, such a problem was not a problem.

But now that the Warriors' future money-making power is uncertain, problems can arise.

Fortunately, Chen Xiao himself is also the behind-the-scenes boss of the Warriors. Although Chen Xiao has no shares in the Warriors, Chen Xiao has a lot of control behind the fund that controls the Warriors. Coupled with Chen Xiao's influence, what Chen Xiao decides, It's almost certainly executable on the Warriors.

So although most of the Warriors' management and staff felt that it was inappropriate to keep Klay, the Warriors decided to keep Klay.

The discussion on this matter didn't take long, so after the injury surgery, Clay immediately got a promise from Chen Xiao and the team that he would reach a five-year, $100 million contract extension with Klay.

To be fair, for Klay, this contract is definitely not enough if Klay is not injured.

But after Klay suffered such an injury, the contract was pretty big.

Let's just put it this way, in the next five years, Klay can only play for a maximum of four years, which means that Klay's actual contract is 100 million yuan for 4 years, 25 million yuan per year.

As far as Klay's current situation is concerned, which team would dare to offer Klay such a big contract and such a long term.

Look at Cousins. Cousins was a bigger player than Klay before his injury.

But not even a three-year contract.

The contract signed by the Mavericks and Cousins is a three-year team option, and the average contract is only 20 million one year.

Therefore, after the successful operation, Clay was very moved when he received such a promise.

After the NBA season ended, Chen Xiao secured Klay's contract renewal, and after giving Klay a reassurance, he returned to Cleveland and participated in the Cavaliers' championship game.

At this time, the epidemic is raging in the United States. Seeing that the Cavaliers fans celebrating on the spot are not wearing masks, Ye Xiao is not very optimistic about the situation of the league next season, and he is also not optimistic about the control of the epidemic in the United States.

Naturally, it is also not optimistic that the NBA will open fans to the field next season.

If so, the pressure on the Warriors will be even greater next season.

And considering the characteristics of the virus, let's just say, with a control method like the United States, how many years will it rage in the future?

If the NBA doesn't allow fans to enter the arena in the next few years, what should the Warriors do?

Therefore, although Chen Xiao had an argument with the senior management of the Warriors, he is understandable for the consideration of the senior management of the Warriors.

It is very courageous for the Warriors to maintain such a super luxury tax under such uncertain circumstances.

In the end, for Chen Xiao, the Warriors chose to compromise. Chen Xiao was very moved by this.

After the knight carefully stayed for two days, Chen Xiao was ready to return to China.

Although it is said that I have to quarantine when I return to China, there is no way to do this.

Originally this year was the year of the Olympic Games, but because of the epidemic, whether the 2020 Tokyo Olympics should be cancelled or not has now become a question.

And this is a very unfavorable thing for the United Arab Emirates.

Originally, the United Arab Emirates was going to take this year's Olympic Games as the final stage of his career.

The UAE has 2 Diamond Cups, 4 Olympic Games, 3 World Championships/World Cups, 9 international championships, and only one international championship can achieve perfect achievements.

So for this year's Olympic Games, the UAE really sacrificed and paid a lot.

As a 36-year-old veteran, he can maintain such a good state and strength. In addition to his talent, he has put in a lot of effort.

Now if the Tokyo Olympics are cancelled, it will be four years later, and the UAE can only wait for the World Cup in 2022.

But the point is, won't he cancel the World Cup at that time?

Therefore, at this time, the United Arab is very confused.

In the end is to retire now, or continue to persevere?

As a 36-year-old veteran and a yellow race, it takes a lot of effort to stay in the NBA without cheating.

Let's just put it this way, Alian himself said that for the past year, he has almost lived an ascetic life.

However, in the end, the United Arab chose to continue playing for another year.

Let's just say, the United Arab League has played 16 seasons in the league and has completed almost all of its goals.

In addition to the championship, he scored 20,000 points, 10,000 rebounds and 5,000 assists. This achievement is definitely a great achievement.

Let's just put it this way, in addition to the championship, when the United Arab retired in the NBA, it must be the jersey retired and added to the Hall of Fame, even if it is in the history of NAB, it will leave its own name.

If he doesn't leave the Jazz, this achievement of the United Arab has reached its peak, and it can even make him compete for the third greatest player in Jazz history.

Therefore, the UAE is now certain that he will not leave the Jazz, his only goal is a world championship.

For this goal, the United Arab is really fighting.

After Chen Xiao returned to China and was quarantined, he did not run around, but buried himself in the teaching of Chen Xiao Basketball University.

Compared to the United States, which is ravaged by the epidemic, China is like a pure land on earth.

However, when Chen Xiao was in China, something huge happened on the Warriors side.

To be precise, when Chen Xiao was in quarantine, the Warriors' inside star player Nongmei announced to jump out of his last year's contract.

For the final choice of the thick eyebrows, the Warriors understand.

Now that the future of the NBA is uncertain, the thick eyebrows of course hope to be safe.

Moreover, in the past few seasons, thick eyebrows have begun to suffer injuries, and he dare not bet on the future.

In this case, it is of course best to sign a large contract as soon as possible.

But obviously, this will bring huge pressure to the Warriors' salary space, which is already under great pressure.

The Warriors, of course, want to leave a thick eyebrow.

Of course, the thick eyebrows also hope to stay in the Warriors.

But the renewal contract that the thick eyebrows now hope for is a five-year, 250 million maximum salary contract. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

For the Warriors, this is simply a matter of vomiting blood.

For Chen Xiao's consideration, the Warriors gritted their teeth and kept Clay. Now that Nongmei wants such a contract, they can't even grit their teeth.

If you really want to leave thick eyebrows, then Chen Xiao, thick eyebrows and Klay will have a total salary of nearly 130 million US dollars next season.

Three people will almost trigger the luxury tax line.

In this uncertain future, a contract like the thick eyebrows will definitely drive the Warriors crazy.

But obviously, if the situation is not unstable, the thick eyebrows will not jump out of the contract.

It's all for the benefit of all parties, and it can only be said that no one is right or wrong.
