NBA: Top 3D talents to start

Chapter 143 The Dust Settled, Signing the Cavaliers

On July 7, the farce of Wade's contract extension with the Miami Heat finally came to an end.

The Chicago Bulls signed Wade with a two-year contract worth 2 million. After realizing it, the Heat urgently offered a contract extension with an annual salary of 4750 million, but it was too late.

What Wade is fighting for is not the size of the contract, but the issue of dignity. He has fought for the Heat for more than ten years, and he has won countless honors throughout his life. treated like this.

Within a few days of the opening of the free market, the Heat cast their nets everywhere to catch big fish, but they failed to grab Durant or recruit other stars, but even so, they were unwilling to give Wade the salary he deserved.

Hassan Whiteside paid 4 million for 9800 years.

Dragic won 5 million in 9000 years without blinking an eye.

This kind of attitude, even the gentle and kind old man Wade couldn't stand it.

It's just that Wade switched to the Bulls, not only the fans of the Heat were disappointed, but also the Cavaliers fans who hoped to reorganize the Janeway connection in Cleveland.

Although it is known that the possibility of Wade joining the Cavaliers is very small, but it is really confirmed that this matter still disappoints Cavaliers fans.

More importantly, with Wade's signing dust settled, there are not many capable players left in the free market. It is very likely that the final result is that the Cavaliers not only failed to sign up, but also lost the traded Tristan. . Thompson and Shumpert, well-deserved.

Fortunately, worried Cavaliers fans didn't have to wait too long.

On July 7, the Cavaliers officially announced that they had reached an agreement with free agent Wang Feng to sign Wang Feng at a price of 10 million for one year.

In the coming year, Wang Feng will wear the No. 1 jersey of the Cavaliers in the NBA.

Once this news was announced, it immediately caused a violent reaction in the league.

"Wang Feng actually went to the knight?"

"Hahaha! Isn't this too messy? The Warriors signed Durant, and the Cavaliers can only sign players they don't want, and they only sign for one year."

"James doesn't think he can compete with the Warriors by signing Wang Feng, does he? No way, no way?"

Wang Feng's performance in the finals was remarkable, and he also performed quite well in the regular season playoffs last season, but it has to be compared with whom.

Kevin Durant, as the league's top star, can be ranked even in the history of the league in terms of strength!It is not at the same level as Wang Feng.

Even with Wang Feng, it may be difficult for the Cavaliers to compete with the Warriors.

But it's a done deal, and there are no big fish in the league's free market.Even if Wang Feng is not signed, there is no better choice.

Therefore, the fans of the Cavaliers can only reluctantly admit this fact. Anyway, this proves that the Cavaliers management team is not sitting still, and is working hard to change this desperate situation.

Wang Feng's three-pointers and perimeter defense are also a great improvement for the Cavaliers, especially the perimeter defense, which may really become an important weapon for the team to contain Durant.

A few days later, Wang Feng formally signed a contract with the Cavaliers.

1800 million a year is a bit low for Wang Feng's worth. Before that, many teams offered him a maximum salary, that is, a 4-year contract of 9500 million, and the salary in the first year alone was as high as 1 million.

Including after the Heat lost Wade, they also offered Wang Feng a maximum salary offer.

But there is no way, what Wang Feng wants is a one-year short-term contract, and his attitude is very clear. It is very likely that he will slap his ass and leave after playing for one year. Not many teams are willing to offer too high an offer for such a contract.

Even the Cleveland Cavaliers gritted their teeth and agreed under pressure from James.

After Wang Feng signed the contract with the Cavaliers, James was very happy in the reporter's interview.

"Wang Feng is a very good player with distinctive technical characteristics and strong strength. His performance in the finals is still fresh in my memory. I believe he will be the last piece of the puzzle for the Cavaliers to win the championship, even if the opponent is the Golden State Warriors. You can also win!"

James is the player who directly faced Wang Feng in the finals. No one knows Wang Feng's ability better than him.

All the players of the Cavaliers welcomed Wang Feng's arrival, but in fact their attitude mainly depends on the King James of the Cavaliers.

Even if they don't like Wang Feng, no one dares to say anything after James has made it clear. After all, the Cavaliers are James' team, not to mention the players, and even the team management has the ability to intervene. As a professional player, apart from James, the only one who can do this is Jordan, the god of basketball.

……

On the other hand, after learning that Wang Feng joined the Cavaliers, the attitude of the Warriors is also different.

Both Curry and Thompson expressed their blessings to Wang Feng, and general manager Miles and head coach Kerr also publicly expressed their gratitude to Wang Feng for his contribution to the team over the past two years.

"We welcome Wang Feng back as a guest at any time, and I believe that Warriors fans will also warmly welcome this meritorious player who has won two championship trophies for the Warriors."

But some people sing the opposite.

"Wang Feng is a traitor!"

In the face of reporters interviewing Green, he was outspoken.

"I understand Wang Feng's desire to get a bigger contract. The Warriors can't meet his demands, so he chooses to go to other teams, which is understandable.!"

"But why did he choose the Cavaliers? The Warriors and the Cavaliers played in the finals for two years, and we won the final victory. If it were me, I would definitely not choose a team that was defeated by me as my next home. And I will never be a partner with my former enemy!"

Green's words were so righteous that he even tried to incite Warriors fans to hate Wang Feng.

But in fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Warriors did not want to renew their contract with Wang Feng in the summer.Their goal was Durant from the beginning.

Among them, Green played a very important role. He frequently met with Durant, tried every means to win over the MVP-level star, and finally persuaded him to choose to join the Warriors.

Now he changed the concept secretly, never mentioning the matter of attracting Durant, but said that Wang Feng wanted to pursue a bigger contract and left the team voluntarily.

But in fact, the Warriors signed Durant with an annual salary of 2600 million U.S. dollars, but Wang Feng signed the Cavaliers for only 1800 million.

Seeing Green's disgusting remarks, Wang Feng didn't feel anything.

This guy has always been like this, Wang Feng only thinks that this is a dog barking at him, anyway, Green's upper limit as a professional player is just like that, it is not worth his attention at all, there is plenty of time in the new season to settle this account.

On the contrary, not long after he joined the Warriors, Durant, who was frantically registering for a trumpet and laning, was completely blackened by the spray from various netizens.

This TM was shot while lying down.

I suspect you are implicating me.

You were not like this when you texted me to invite me before!

Durant, who has not experienced the power of Green's formula, can only endure all this in silence. At this time, Durant absolutely cannot imagine what he will experience in the future...
