In the blink of an eye, the curtain of the free market came to an end.

Aldridge joined the Spurs in four years, $84.1 million;

Leonard's five-year, $90 million extension with the Spurs;

Reggie Jackson, 5-year, $80 million extension with Pistons;

Dragic renews with Heat for 5 years and 86 million;

Draymond Green signs a five-year, $85 million extension with the Warriors;

Brandon renews with Suns for 5 years and 70 million;

Compared to Durant joining the Nets, none of these moves made much waves.

However, Durant's joining the Nets has follow-up implications.

Because the league has received reports from multiple teams that the Nets have been in private contact with Durant before the door to free agency opened.

But such a report did not follow.

Because Durant had a contract before the door to free agency opened, he was only considered a free agent after he jumped out of the contract.

And the deal between the Nets and the Thunder was not the first time the free agency door opened.

These factors ultimately led the league to drop the investigation.

Of course, even if the truth is slapped on the face, there will still be people who question it.

Although they may be right this time, there is no evidence!

And just before their sigh of relief, another Nets signing once again let fans fry.

David West jumped out of the player option worth 12 million in the final year of the Pacers and signed a one-year, 3 million contract with the Nets!

Then, this led to a heated discussion among fans, and the Nets were reported again.

This time the league announced a high-profile investigation.

Because this involves another sensitive word: Yin-Yang contract. .

The yin and yang contract between the Timberwolves and Joe Smith was heavily fined, which also caused the Timberwolves to remain stagnant, and even slumped to this day.

If the Nets did the same thing, it would have been a heavy penalty.

And the league's nominal investigations are also well-founded.

Who would give up a 12 million contract and go to sign a 3 million contract?

Even for the championship, there is a limit.

However, the results of the survey came out, there is really nothing tricky between the Nets and West.

Because West really went to win the championship!

In fact, before this, West also had contact with the Spurs.

But the Nets gave more sincerity. Walkendian called West many times to persuade him to sign West.

And shortly after West signed, the Nets and Lakers trade was officially announced.

The Nets signed Chandler to a four-year, $52 million contract, then sent him to the Lakers for Ariza and Tim.

Before other players have been determined, the Nets' main lineup and core rotation for the new season have been basically determined.

Starters: Bradley, Ariza, Durant, Lin Ying, Jokic.

Rotation: JR, Covington, Turner, West, Mahinmi.

And after the Nets have done these operations, theoretically there is still 11 million salary space to operate, and then there is a mini middle class.

This is really what people all over the league watch as Walken Dean on the show.

Don't look at Walkendian crouching in the general manager's office very hard, and now other teams in the league are looking at him with straight eyes.

This kind of opportunity is hard to come by, and even envy can't envy it.

Just as the free agency market was drawing to a close, the Nets' final signings were made one after another.

The biggest of them all is about point guards.

The Nets did not re-sign veteran Barbosa, but reached a four-year, $30 million contract with Spurs guard Corey Joseph.

The signing was a bit of a surprise, as Joseph wasn't a great player for the Spurs and his 3-point range was shaky, but his salaries were close to those of Ariza and Bradley.

But Joseph has what Walkendian values, defense and stability. Joseph's defense is above the league level, and his assist-to-turnover ratio is high.

The Nets already have JR on the bench, and the backup point guard is relatively stable and reliable.

Of course, another point that will be overlooked is that Joseph is also from the University of Texas!

Walkendian likes the point of the University of Texas players, and has a blowout explosion this season!

Counting Joseph's words, Lin Ying, Durant, and Augustin, there are already 4 of them!

In the last three spots, Walkendian gave one to Chris Anderson, one to "Old Prince" Prince, and the last one to Seth Curry.

Anderson is Karl's official insider, and he has been a dedicated third center for the Nets in recent years.

The contracts between Prince and the Knicks just expired, and they belong to the championship-chasing veterans.

Seth Curry's words belonged to an accidental signing, because Walkendian had a tryout at the end, and Curry's three-point performance impressed him.

After the rotation is basically set, what the bench needs is functional players.

Around Lin Ying and Durant, what they need most is someone who can shoot three-pointers.

Moreover, the Nets signed Curry with a 2-year, 2 million basic salary contract. The risk is very low. As long as Curry can give some help at certain times, it will be earned.

In this way, Walkendian cut through the mess and quickly settled the Nets' lineup.

Point guards: Bradley, Corey Joseph, Dinwiddie

Shooting guards: Ariza, JR, Seth Curry

Small Front: Durant, Covington/Turner, Prince

Power Front: Lin Ying, David West

Centers: Jokic, Mahinmi, Chris Anderson

This lineup, super giants, 3Ds, scorers, three-point shooters, basically everything you can think of.

Moreover, many of the strikers are able to swing from the 3rd or 4th position, which is very in line with the team building requirements of the old Karl.

Even in terms of salary, this lineup is in the early 90s. The luxury tax for the new season is 80 million, which is 10 million over the cap.

In addition, many of these contracts are cost-effective long-term contracts, and the lineup is also very stable.

It can be said that Walkendian has put a lot of effort into building this lineup. Of course, he is basically tired and paralyzed.

Having lived in the office for so long, and it's not just a matter of phone calls, he's also scheduled a lot of workouts, and he signed Curry and Joseph after the workouts.

He needs to rest for a while to recover.

A week after free agency, the Nets held a new aid conference.

Last year's Nets press conference was not small, and this year's is even bigger.

Lin Ying, Durant, Ariza, Corey Joseph, David West, Seth Curry, Prince, all of them are half the team.

As for why Lin Ying came?

He jumped out of the contract and signed a new contract with the Nets, which could also be a "new aid".

Of course, this kind of thing may or may not come. Lin Ying is still here to support Durant. He is afraid that someone at the press conference will trouble Durant.

After all, this is New York, not to mention those ESPN, that is, the local media in New York like to make trouble.

Facts also proved that Lin Ying guessed right... half.

Durant did become the focus of the press conference, because compared to "old acquaintance" Lin Ying, Durant is a serious new aid.

But they didn't have much trouble with the media looking for Durant.

On the contrary, the atmosphere of the conference was even somewhat lighthearted.

In addition to what fans have said when they rattled on social media, there's an easily overlooked context.

Lin Ying and Durant are both "losers" now.

Lin Ying [isolated and helpless], tried his best last season and failed to defeat the four All-Star Cavaliers.

Many fans who watched the series felt unfair.

And Durant was a "lone hero" last season. He contributed to the tiebreaker in two rounds, and finally won the season reimbursement in the tiebreaker.

The combination of these two people has a strong impact, but it is completely different from the original concept of the Knicks Big Three.

This also shows that those who spray Durant on social media are most likely Cavaliers fans.

It's no wonder you're comfortable when your direct competitor gets a major boost.

Of course, Durant was still asked some tough questions, such as...

"Who's going to be the boss of the Nets?"

A reporter from ESPN asked Durant directly.

An important reason why the king does not see the king is that no one obeys the other.

Everyone is a super giant in the league, why are you the boss and the second?

Lin Ying wanted to take the microphone and say something like "We are Texas Gemini" and "We are tied for second".

But Durant took the microphone first.

"I'm here for Lindang Pippen."

What is Kevin Durant!

Just direct!

This remark also caused a commotion among the reporters in the audience.

Durant's attitude is really unexpected.

"But only Lin can let me do that."

Then Durant added another point.

This also made the commotion under the stage quiet down quickly.

Yes, that is Lin Ying!

If you team up with Lin Ying and let Lin Ying be Pippen, I'm afraid people all over the world will think you're crazy.

So Durant sounds straightforward, but there's nothing wrong with that.

"Lin, do you think so too?"

The ESPN reporter then threw the same question to Lin Ying.

Lin Ying wanted to say something, and took the microphone directly.

"I feel like the combination of me and Kevin is like Olajuwon and Drexler."

Lin Ying said.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of applause from the audience.

Because this example is so perfect.

Drexler chose to go to Olajuwon after the Blazers tried their best to win the championship, as did Durant;

In the season that Drexler went, because Jordan retired, Olajuwon became the first player in the league, and Lin Ying was also the first player in the league;

The most linked point is that Olajuwon and Drexler are college teammates, as are Lin Ying and Durant!

Moreover, this answer also avoids the direct answer to the question of who is the boss. It can be said to be the most perfect answer. It is no wonder that the reporters will applaud.

Lin Ying's skills in language and art are very good.

By this time, almost all the questions asked of Durant had been asked, and the fans had also turned the question object to Lin Ying.

"Lin, you just mentioned Olajuwon and Drexler. They completed a two-peat in Houston. Considering the age of you and Kevin, are the Nets at the bottom of the three-peat?"

This is followed by TNT's, which is regarded as "one's own person".

After he asked this question, the audience burst into laughter.

After going through the previous "who is the boss" question, this kind of question can be said to be quite easy.

But Lin Ying didn't laugh, he didn't think it was an easy topic.

Moreover, his answer is also very serious.

"I think a lot of people don't know how difficult it is to win three consecutive championships in modern basketball. Your opponents change every season, and the opponents you face will be very different from what you imagined, and you have to overcome conditions, injuries, etc. , fighting spirit, staff turnover and many other factors.

This is why I said before that Jordan was a GOAT in my heart. Aside from off-court factors, he did it twice in three consecutive championships. "

Lin Ying's remarks drew another round of applause from the audience.

He's just been through a three-peat losing season, and these words can be said to be personal experience.

And Lin Ying is the real Joe Blow!

However, Lin Ying's expression was still serious.

"And in the current league, you have to deal with the emergence of various super teams, so for us, our goal is to win a championship first. As for more, I will naturally have the answer when I think of it."

The audience applauded for the third time.

Compared with James' "7 championships" when he first arrived in New York, Lin Ying's words are what a mature person should say.

You will feel how incredible this is, after all, Lin Ying entered the league 4 years later than James, and 4 years younger than James.

"Ying, I think you are conservative."

After the press conference, Lin Ying and Durant walked to the player tunnel together, Durant couldn't help but say.

"What? You also want to learn from LeBron and come with seven championships?"

Lin Ying said with a smile.

"No, but I think we still have a good chance of winning three consecutive championships. I am very confident."

Durant's face is full of confidence, and he always likes to be straight.

"Kevin, even if we can do it, it's not appropriate for us to say that, because if we can't do it, it will become a laughing stock. Isn't that how LeBron's 7 championships came about?"

Durant nodded after listening, as if so.

"and……"

"And what?"

"Have you forgotten what I told you?"

Durant stopped suddenly~www.mtlnovel.com~ He carefully recalled what Lin Ying said at the press conference, and then unconsciously patted his forehead.

"I think I know what you meant earlier!"

What he said was what Lin Ying said made him imitate Barkley's speech.

Lin Ying patted Durant on the shoulder after hearing this:

"Ruzi can be taught."

The next day, Charlotte.

Jordan's mansion.

Jordan, as always, smoked a cigar and sat on the soft sofa watching the news.

Originally he was scanning the news, but when he saw the NBA, he was stunned for a moment, then put down his cigar and laughed.

He really likes this kid Lin Ying!

He wanted to call Lin Ying, but found that he seemed to have nothing to teach Lin Ying.

But he still called over, and then asked Lin Ying to have a meal together.

When he put down the phone, he still looked at the newspaper and laughed.

The way he looks now is like the cat you raised. He likes you very much, and he likes you so much that he doesn't know how to express it, until,

Can't help biting you.
