The Kings renewed Whiteside's contract for 4 years and 98 million, and "White Edge" used his actions to win back a high salary for himself.In the future, Gobert's rookie contract expires, and eighty percent will be waived.On the same day, the shocking news broke that the Mavericks signed Harrison Barnes with a maximum salary worth 94 million for four years.Cuban is definitely going to cry in the future, it's absolutely high-paid and incompetent, and Barnes is just a role player.With Lowry and Thompson to attract defense, Barnes could only score 117 points, 5 rebounds and 18 assists in the regular season.In order to poach him, the Mavericks did not renew Jeremy Lin's contract, just looking at the offensive ability, Barnes may not be stronger than Jeremy Lin.In the playoffs, Barnes' stats dropped to 9 points, 47 rebounds, played 31 minutes, and shot 38 from the field, which was simply terrible.Ten years ago, he would have taken two million.The Mavericks will certainly not be competitive next season, Nowitzki's scoring efficiency is still there, and the defensive end is also leaky.The Pelicans renewed James Harden's contract for 11.8 billion in 4 years, and the offense and defense were weak.Wade signed with the Bulls for 2 years and 47.5 million.Next season, the Bulls' outside line is Rondo and Wade, and neither of them can shoot three-pointers, and they are drunk to think about it.The Trail Blazers renewed McClum's contract in advance for 4 years and 10.6 billion, and Joe Johnson was called the worst contract in the past, and now no matter what cat or dog is, it is Mr. 20 million.McLuome can only score, and it is a tragedy that the 191 height at the No. 2 position on the defensive end is eaten casually by strong guards.James renewed his contract with the Cavaliers for 3 years and 100 million, and the previous two-year contract allowed him to maximize his benefits, but he was also deducted from the hat of high salary and low ability.Compared with Wang Jun and Curry, as long as they sign a big contract, they are all high-paid and incompetent.The most cost-effective signing of the Cavaliers is to poach JR Smith for 5 million a year, and the "nerve knife" is also here to hold his legs to win the championship.His strength is his convulsions, shooting 40 from three-point range last season and averaging 26 of 66 shots per game.J.R.
Smith was unlucky, he was known as a high-paid imbecile, he was said to be a cancer in the Nuggets, and now he has a base salary at the age of 31.Smith thought about joining the Kings, but the Kings were not interested in a convulsive like him, preferring someone who was willing to defend and run according to the coach's arrangement.The King's Covington was poached, and he signed with the Bucks for 4 years and 00,000, and Skels is optimistic about his three-point shooting ability, and Covington has not played much time in the playoffs, and it is at a premium.With the same annual salary, he is at least better than the Pelicans signing Hill.The location of the bucks is not good, and if you want to poach people, you can only throw high salaries.Two veterans, Stoudeyer and West, have announced their retirement, and the Kings have vacated several positions.They first signed to Richard Jefferson, who averaged 55 points and 17 rebounds per game in the regular season with 458 shooting percentage and 382 three-point shooting.The second pick was still a swingman, giving Matt Barnes a base salary.Barnes, also 36, was teammates with Wang Jun at the Bulls, and he wants to taste the championship again in the final years of his career.Last season in the Grizzlies, he averaged 10 points, 55 rebounds and 21 assists per game, and his scoring methods were mainly outside catch-and-shoot shots, not possessing the ball, and rebounding efficiency was very high.Barnes has changed several teams and has not faded out of the media eye, and is a well-known problem player.At the start of last season, Barnes made headlines about the feud between Barnes and Knicks coach Fisher.Fisher was seen at the home of Barnes' wife, Gloria, in Los Angeles.It is reported that Fisher and Gloria have been dating for months.In March last year, Lao Yu and his wife who had been with him for ten years officially divorced, and after settling in New York, this "good man" no longer wanted a wife and daughter.When Matt Barnes learned that Fisher was at Gloria's home, he immediately drove 95 miles to Los Angeles to fight Fisher, but in the end, there was no fight, but the police were still called.Fisher's reputation was completely stinky, he didn't do a good job in the Knicks, and he and the "Zen master" Jackson went to New York to form a group to cheat money.Ismael Smith signed a 3-year, 18 million contract extension for the Kings, and after Brooks leaves, Curry must have a backup, which is not a big contract.On July 16, Durant finally announced his decision.After the Thunder were eliminated last season, there was a lot of speculation about Durant leaving and speculation about where he was going.The Celtics, Lakers, Wizards, Rockets, Warriors or Thunder may stay with the Thunder, and experts believe that these six are the most likely.In the end, Durant went so far as to announce that he had joined the Kings.Durant wore the jersey of the Western rival Kings, which was unacceptable to Thunder fans.He signed a two-year contract with the Kings worth $54.3 million, with a player option for the second year.Whether Durant is in the 10-year veteran clause and will maximize his benefits next year, or whether he will save the country with a thunder curve after winning the championship, everyone was shocked.Wang Jun, Durant, and Curry form the Super Three, and if you add Whiteside, who was selected as an All-Star, it is the Big Four.The Lakers have been trying to convince Durant to join the Purple and Gold, and the recruitment has failed, and Durant's decision will affect the Lakers' rebuilding efforts to some extent.Hapostero, a senior writer for ESN, believes that Durant's decision to join the Kings is the right one, and there is no need to ignore those rumors at all, looking at James's previous departure from the Cavaliers to the Kings, isn't it also to get the championship Now Durant's decision is like this, in order to win the championship.Barkley was very unappreciative of Durant's move to join the Kings."
I'm as disappointed as I am to see LeBron go to the king."
Barkley said: "Kevin is a good player, a good boy; From a competitive point of view, I was disappointed because he weakened 1 team in favor of 1 outstanding team.In terms of mentality, they can't just be his little brother just because they can't beat Wang Jun, "There are some great players in NBA history who have never won a championship, and Barkley is one of them.He believes that not having a championship ring doesn't affect a player's place in history: "There's always someone who says, 'Hey, man, you didn't win a championship, you're a.' ”Barkley laughed, "I don't consider myself a waste.I'm sure Patrick Ewing, Carl Malone and John Stockton, we all think we're great.We can actually win one championship by joining forces, but only the new generation of players will have the pressure to win the championship because everyone wants to win. ”Durant's decision has attracted countless criticisms, time waits for no one, he is not for money, he can only make this decision.Wang Jun welcomed Durant to join, the Kings' roster is obviously stronger than last season, and a series of trades have been completed, and the King's total salary next season is 97.45 million.After the salary cap, there is no luxury tax, and the 14-man lineup is as follows.Centre-forwards: Whiteside, Gobert, Sabonis.Power forwards: Patterson, Aminu, Jefferson.Small forwards: Carroll, Durant, Carter.Shooting guards: Jun Wang, Barnes, Wilcox.Point guards: Curry, Ismael Smith.In the preseason, the Kings can also scout players and sign someone to reinforce at the No. 1 or No. 4 slot.Even if he doesn't sign, nothing will stop the king from winning three more consecutive titles.s:
