NBA: No. 1 Forward Chapter 479

, the fastest update NBA: the latest chapter of the No. 1 forward!

"I know, everyone really wants to know when the championship parade will start. Downey has already discussed a specific date, June 13th, but the specific route needs to be planned. After all, the championship parade The scale will be unprecedented!"

"This time, in addition to the championship parade, there is one more thing to announce, Rashid, you should come and tell everyone about this in person!"

After James Dolan finished speaking, he took the initiative to step aside.

Rasheed Wallace stepped up and looked at everyone.

"Damn it, I shouldn't actually be saying this at the happiest time, but everything has an end...I've decided...to end my career this summer and officially retire."

"Actually, as early as the summer of last year, I had already thought about retiring. It was sickle and you who made me choose the Knicks and choose to play for another year. Now I am lucky to be able to finish my career at the end of my career. At this moment, I can still hold the O'Brien Cup."

"In this year, I have had a very happy and fulfilling life. This is a team with vigor, hard work, unity and tenacious fighting spirit. But as a bullet fired from Washington, now I am gliding to the end."

"I am very fortunate that I chose the Knicks in the last year of my career. I think I should put an end to my career here."

In fact, Lian Dao had already expected the retirement of Rasheed Wallace.

This season, Rasheed Wallace's playing time has not been much, and more often, Rasheed Wallace plays the leader of the locker room in the Knicks.

His tactical status in the Knicks is even after David Lee.

In the original history, Rasheed made a comeback with the Knicks in the 12-13 season.

But at that time, the Knicks were weak inside. Even at the age of 38, he still averaged 14 minutes per game.

Rasheed Wallace, at the time, still had more or less **** to play.

But now, with Cousins on the rise, Rasheed's minutes will only get rarer.

And when some veterans can't play, and they don't have any financial pressure, they will choose to retire and choose another way of life.

At the age of 36, with two championships, it can be said that Rashid has nothing to regret.

Lian Dao gave Rasheed a hug, but he didn't say anything to keep him, because Lian Dao knew that the Knicks couldn't give Rasheed more playing time.

Moreover, Rashid made this decision after careful consideration.

"Thank you, sickle, thank you!" Rashid understands that Lian Dao understands himself. As a veteran, what he needs is not to retain, but to respect, respect for his career and choices.

Lian Dao patted Rashid on the shoulder, although a little sad, but professional basketball is like this, full of greetings and sending off.

Lian Dao also knew very well that Rashid was definitely not the last one to leave.

Everyone has different pursuits, and everyone has the right to choose their own career.

Some players have been chasing the championship all their lives, wandering among teams; some players choose to die alone in one person, one city; High honor, would rather choose a salary cut.

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and read books recently, change sources and switch, read aloud with many timbres, and both Android and Apple can be used. 】

No matter which option you choose, there is no right or wrong.

Everyone has their own pursuits, and Lian Dao will not use his own standards to measure everyone.

Even Lian Dao, he can't be sure that he will spend all of his career in the Knicks.

The mobilization of professional basketball players does not actually have much right to decide their own choices.

For the Knicks this summer, there will definitely be more personnel changes for players who have played worth or don't have much playing time.

"Okay, don't be so sad, although Rashid retired, but he will join the Knicks coaching staff as an assistant coach! He is still a member of our team, you guys have been cheated by him !"

James Dolan saw the heavy atmosphere at the scene, so he directly exposed Rasheed Wallace's trick.

"Hey, boss, how could you do this, you said you would cooperate with me!"

Rasheed Wallace saw that the sad atmosphere he had created with great difficulty was instantly dismantled, and he said eagerly.

"Hmm, because I'm the boss, but, Rashid, shouldn't you deal with everyone's anger!"

James Dolan smiled and pointed to the angry Knicks.

All the Knicks players were fooled by Rasheed's acting skills, and now everyone has expressions of shame and anger on their faces.

Fortunately, they still looked sad and parted just now.

"Brothers, beat him!" Lian Dao roared.

Everyone surrounded Rasheed Wallace.

"Don't slap me, I'm going to participate in the championship parade... oops... who,... who is picking out my bell... I saw you, DeMarcus, you wait for me to kill you..."

With Rashid's screams, the meeting room regained its pleasant atmosphere.

By the side, D'Antoni watched all this with a smile on his face.

"Coach, do you also know?" Lian Dao asked.

D'Antoni was too calm from beginning to end, as if he knew the result a long time ago.

The head coach, the owner, the general manager and Rasheed Wallace were all in collusion, and even Lian Dao was cheated.

However, it can also be seen from here that the atmosphere in the Knicks locker room is really good.

After the hilarity, Lian Dao was pushed by the Knicks team doctor to the Knicks medical center.

His left foot was simply fixed before, and no plaster was applied. This time, a more detailed examination, treatment, and plaster were applied.

The next day, Lian Dao called Kobe and his friends who had promised to participate in summer training.

Due to the injury of his left foot, the training that he promised before may have to be shelved.

However, they had expected this for a long time, and Lian Dao called, of course, he did not simply tell them that he was absent from the summer training. If he won the championship, if he didn't "share" it with his good friends, wouldn't it be like a night walk in Jinyi.

For this, Lian Dao also attracted a lot of hatred.

Kobe, a paranoid man, gritted his teeth in hatred on the phone, and uttered cruel words. The new season should make Lian Dao and the Knicks look good.

Lian Dao could imagine Kobe's face distorted by anger through the phone.

However, through the chat with Kobe, Lian Dao also remembered one thing, that is the famous 2011 labor negotiations.

In fact, due to the impact of the financial crisis, the negotiating parties had already started meeting ahead of schedule as early as August 2009.

Negotiations have not been smooth as team owners insist on hard salary caps, cuts to 57 percent of player salaries in basketball-related income, and reduced contract lengths.

However, Labor, represented by the players, believes that the team's owner is lying, especially in the past two years, the owner of the New York Knicks has made a lot of money, which makes the players think that this percentage should not be reduced, but should be increased. That's right.

Therefore, on May 27, the NBA players union formally filed a lawsuit with the U.S. labor arbitration agency, accusing the NBA of using intimidation and threats in the new labor negotiations to force the players union to sign a new labor agreement that is unfavorable to the players.

So far, the two sides still have not reached an agreement on the new labor agreement.

If before July 1st, both employers and employees still cannot reach an agreement on the collective bargaining agreement, then the NBA will face a formal lockout.

It's just that the current team owners don't have any worries about the suspension of the league. On the contrary, they think it is a means to force the players union to compromise.

Because NBA teams can avoid paying player salaries and other expenses brought about by contracts during the lockout.

This is not a big deal for those superstars who hold a lot of endorsement contracts, but for players who survive on team salaries, they will face severe economic problems.

This is also one of the goals of the team owner ~www.mtlnovel.com~ is to cause conflicts among the players, so as to achieve the goal of disintegrating the players' union front.

It's just that Lian Dao knows that both parties have suffered heavy losses in this lockout, and neither labor nor management have won.

This suspension lasted for a full 149 days, which directly caused the NBA game to just start in mid-to-late December.

In this lockout, players and team owners suffered losses, and the brand value of the league was also affected. Sponsors fled one after another, and no one became the winner of this lockout.

But Lian Dao knew that this matter was unavoidable, and he had to make a good plan for this long vacation.

After using the injury repair fluid, Lian Dao's recovery time was shortened from 6-8 months to 4-6 months.

After two months, he will be able to undergo simple rehabilitation training, and even he can fully recover before the start of the new NBA season.
