I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 242 Boxer (Fourth)
After talking about the signing of Milicic, Min Congda returned to Los Angeles alone.

He suddenly felt worthless for himself, why did he give the whole team a vacation, and he was the only one still busy with work?

Making phone calls one after another, taking planes, running long distances, racking one's brains to calculate wages.

As a result, he himself didn't have a penny of salary, and the Clippers employees were still paid vacations!
If one were selected as the worst manager, Min Congda would definitely not run away.

Fortunately, Min Congda was very satisfied with the two signings and found a bad player he wanted.

Although Bonner and Milicic are both insiders, they are not in line with Min Congda's previous nonsensical strategy.

But both of them are white, and there are too few whites in the league who can play inside.

Their previous experience also proved that, that's it, the two contracts are at a premium.

In addition to the fine of 50 yuan received by the alliance, Min Congda's personal financial situation suddenly became much better.

His income is after tax, according to the US federal and state tax rates.

The after-tax income of 50 US dollars is almost a million before taxes.

So this is a very considerable bonus, which makes Min Congda full of motivation.

Another good news is that by July 7, the Clippers' two-week vacation will be over.

The employees finally came back to work and helped Min Congda carry the burden on his shoulders.

On the day of work, the Clippers employees almost returned to work in a mood of can't wait.

People from all departments came to the team headquarters at the Staples Center early in the morning.

Two weeks off from work, the salary is still paid, and the team can still operate.

Explain what?It shows that without them, the Clippers can actually play very well, maybe even better.

After the holiday, Min Congda held a senior management meeting and informed everyone of the team's signing decision during this period.

In fact, everyone has heard the news a long time ago. The alliance is such a circle, and everyone doesn't know who else.

Regarding the signing of Bonner and Milicic, or two four-year contracts with such a large amount, everyone naturally has great opinions.

Everyone thinks that this will definitely become two stinky and long garbage contracts, and they will be impatient to clean up after two years.

But Min Congda's prestige accumulated in the last season made no one dare to oppose him.

As a result, the two signings were successfully passed, and Rosser and the people from the legal department began to prepare the contract.

Two signings may seem simple, but in fact, they need to be selected one by one, and there is room for careful calculation of salary.

It is very strenuous to keep talking on the phone, or even go to people's homes to talk.

Min Congda felt that his lower-middle intelligence had reached the limit of his work.

Let him complete any transactions, this and that, he can't bear it anymore.

So he handed over the rest of the lineup adjustments to Sachs.

"I have a few requirements. The first one is to fill the salary space as much as possible and exceed the salary cap. The second one is to give the middle class to Ricky Davis and draw up the contract as soon as possible. The third one is to make minor repairs if there is a deal. Don't think about big deals, put stability first, stability first!"

After emphasizing these few things, on July 7th, the Clippers held a signing ceremony for newcomers in the press conference hall of the Staples Center.

The Clippers ushered in four new members, Matt Bonner wearing No. 15, Milicic wearing No. 31, Bledsoe wearing No. 12 jersey, and James Harding wearing No. 13 jersey. ascend.

Of the four, Bledsoe is the most relaxed and indifferent.

As a rookie, he is full of longing for the NBA. No matter which team he is in, as long as he can play, he is just getting started.

The person with the most complicated mood is James Harden, who feels the impermanence of the NBA.

He played well in the Thunder in his rookie season, and he has a good relationship with Durant and Westbrook.

Presti even said that he would train himself well, and sold him to Los Angeles after changing hands.

Fortunately, Harden himself was born and raised in Los Angeles, so it is also great to be able to return to Los Angeles.

In terms of the number of nightclubs and the high quality of girls, no one in Los Angeles can match it on the west coast.

The person in the happiest mood was Matt Bonner. When he came to Los Angeles, he first went to see the house.

He found that the housing prices here are indeed at the bottom of the valley, which is very suitable for bargain hunting, and he will definitely be able to make a fortune in the future.

At present, he has taken a fancy to an apartment, which is conveniently located between the Staples Center and the training center.

It is very convenient to play at home and go to training, and he heard that the Clippers have good benefits.

Players have transportation subsidies, food and beverage subsidies, and soda drinks in the training center are free to take without coins.

If you drive to work by yourself, the team will also provide fuel subsidies, so don't be too considerate.

In comparison, the Spurs are a lot stingy, and they can save as much as they can, which is somewhat uncomfortable.

He also heard from employees that the general manager of Smart is very generous, giving everyone vacation and salary.

Such a general manager and living environment are exactly what Bonner dreamed of.

I just don't know how the atmosphere of the team is. It would be perfect if it can be better.

The most tense and contradictory mood is naturally Milicic.

What worries him the most is that at the signing ceremony, some reporters asked about his expectations.

He is afraid of those promises, those expectations, they will all become knives stabbing him in the future.

After showing the jersey, during the questioning session of the reporter, someone really asked:

"Mr. Smart, you signed Milicic with a price of 4 million for four years. What kind of expectations do you have for him? Do you think he can realize the potential of the No. 3500 pick in 2003?"

This question is clearly thorny.

The Los Angeles media did not understand Min Congda's summer operations, and made a lot of criticism.

First of all, Gordon replaced Harden, exchanging a certainty for an uncertainty, and taking away the No. 2 defender who played well in the playoffs.

Most people think this is such a bad choice that people can't understand it.

As for winning Bonner and Milicic, it is even worse.

With two white insiders, the Clippers' insiders are already slow.

Now there are two more slow-moving guys, are you afraid that others will not be able to break through?

Milicic has scratched this kind of lottery many times, and it has been proved to be a "thank you for your patronage" lottery.

You spend a few million to buy it back and try it out, 4 million in 3500 years, are you going crazy?
It's better to keep the old Camby. At least Camby can contribute 11 rebounds and 2 blocks per game steadily when he starts.

Very good data, Min Congda actually let him go and let the Cavaliers take Camby down.

When Milicic heard this question, his whole body became nervous.

He was afraid that Min Congda would publicly say that he had high expectations for him.

Min Congda replied: "I think Darko is a very good boxer. His fists are very hard. Our team lacks some hardness. I want to add some toughness to the team. He can knock a wall out of the wall with one punch." Hole, really, I saw it with my own eyes. Anyone trying to get to the Clippers basket next season is going to get punched. Don't you, Darko?"

Upon hearing Min Congda's words, Milicic showed a long-lost smile on his face, shook his fist, and said, "That's right, my boxer guarding the basket."
