Healing Basketball

  Chapter 742 742. Tailor-made renewal clauses

   Liu Xiu immediately issued an order to warm up with 50,000 healing value, and start 50 lucky draws.

   The first group was very lucky, and got a 'jump+1' and a 'explosive power+1'!

   Bounce +1 is transformed into a normal bounce card, and the explosive power has been increased from 79 to 80!

  He happily smoked another set...

   This group got 1 Advanced Excavator + 1, 3 Fishing + 1, Advanced Excavator + 1 is not enough for 3, Fishing has been raised to +4, and there is 1 more Normal Fishing + 1...

After kindly spitting out the name of a fruit, he drew another wave... this time it was okay, he got a card with burst speed +1, which increased the burst speed from 85 to 86; there was also a card with strength +1, converted into a normal card power card.

  This group also drew two cards of Fishing +1 and Fishing +5. Judging from the level of other amateur skills, this is already considered a master level.

  However, the excavator technology is still far ahead. He doesn't know which one is better, playing basketball or driving an excavator.

Another group of harvest-style lottery draws was ushered in, and Liu Xiu was inflated again. He planned to draw 3 groups and save one group to see when he was lucky. He felt that now was the time when he was the luckiest. !

Then…

  In the first 48 draws, except for two hip-hop +1 cards, there was no card, and a lot of food was drawn.

   Just when he was desperate, he won two prizes in a row!

   "Congratulations to the host for obtaining attribute points: physical strength +1, because the host's physical strength has reached the top level, it is automatically converted into a physical strength attribute card.

  The host already has 3 physical attribute cards, which are automatically converted into 1 advanced physical attribute card, which can be used after the host completes the training task. "

   "Congratulations to the host for obtaining the equipment: the Bracers of the African Mountains."

   "The Bracers of the African Mountains: Bounce +3 when worn, and improve the sense of smell of blocks (affected by the host's overall defense)."

   Liu Xiu looked at the wristbands in the warehouse marked with optional colors, and he was very entangled in his heart.

  He wears ankle pads now, knee pads, now hands, wrist pads.

  If Yao Ming hadn’t given the armguards, half of his body would have been covered!

   If there are some masks, headbands, etc. in the future, will he wear them or not?

  …

   On the second day, on June 30, the NBA officially held a boss meeting.

   There will be many problems in every season, and after each season, there will be some big and small things that need to be voted on to decide.

  Most things are not directly related to players.

  But every year there will be a few things that are closely related to the players and important.

  There are three this year!

  After the meeting, the NBA officially announced three proposals that passed the vote.

  The "Technical Foul Whistleblowing System Amendment" proposed by the NBA official, the NBA Rules Committee, and the referee union, has 29 bosses agreeing.

  The only objection is Mavericks owner Mark Cuban. Another word for this amendment is zero tolerance.

  Mark Cuban is the NBA owner with the most technical fouls...

  The second proposal concerning players was passed on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the NBA. It was led by the NBA official and voted by a number of designated media.

  The result of this selection will be the same as the "50 Superstars" 10 years ago, and the officially recognized "New 10 Superstars" will be selected.

   This vote passed unanimously.

The third one was proposed by the owner of the Trail Blazers to revise the terms of the rookie contract. Only 23 owners voted for it. The Spurs, Clippers, Rockets, Hornets, Bobcats, Raptors... 7 teams The team owner objected to the proposal, but it passed with more than 2/3 of the votes.

  After the announcement of the new rookie contract extension clause, it was named the "Warden Special Case" by major media.

  The new regulations stipulate that during the rookie contract period, if a player can win one regular season MVP or be selected for the first team twice, the starting salary can reach up to 30% of the salary cap when renewing the contract.

  The media is blaming the teams that voted no—don't think too much about it...

  Liu Xiu was quite surprised when she saw the content of the "Special Case for the Warden".

   This is much stricter than the 'Ross Clause' in his impression!

   It may be related to the age. When the "Ross Clause" came out, the subprime mortgage crisis was over, the United States has released water year after year, and the income of NBA teams began to grow again...

   And the current market conditions are not good.

  So, there is nothing wrong with the media's complaints. It should be that Paul Allen ran to David Stern to make trouble and got him a clause.

  He went to the official NBA website to check. If there is any active player who may trigger the 'warden exception', the only one is King James. The third-year little emperor has already been selected for a team, and he can be selected again next season.

  But this time James was selected for the first team, and the media vote has been questioned. Whether he can be selected next season is still unclear...

   Liu Xiu can understand those teams that oppose this proposal.

  What if?

  His warden is really not the only active player who is eligible to trigger this clause.

  Duncan was selected to the first team in his rookie year, so he is not an exception. Teams in small ball markets will worry about not being able to pay a salary after selecting such a talent in the future.

   At night, Liu Xiu held a party with Randolph and Ray Allen and invited all his teammates to participate.

   It means having a breakup meal. After today, some teammates will become former teammates.

  Worked hard together for a season, and finally won the championship and completed two consecutive championships. This kind of teammate friendship made Liu Xiu very reluctant.

   But this is not the first time he has experienced a teammate change. Faced with this kind of thing, he has been able to calmly face it.

  …

   On July 1, 2006, a new month arrived. The NBA 2005-2006 season officially ended and entered the offseason. The free market officially kicked off.

  The NBA officially announced the salary cap for next season-more than 57.3 million US dollars.

  Compared to last season, it has increased by 4.3 million dollars. Under the current environment, there is such a large increase, which makes the media shout incredible.

  Because the four major leagues in North America last season, American football and ice hockey revenues have shrunk, and the newly announced salary caps have all dropped, although not much.

  The NBA has nearly $300 million in revenue growth!

  At noon, some media exposed the profit rankings of the 30 NBA teams in the 05-06 season.

  The Trail Blazers, with a profit of more than 86 million US dollars, surpassed the Knicks with a profit of more than 79 million US dollars, becoming the team with the most money in the NBA in the 05-06 season!

  This incident really didn't surprise many people.

  The Trail Blazers cleared their salary space once in the summer of 2005. The 2005-06 season is the starting point for salary, and it will rise every year in the future. Player salary expenses of "only" more than 74 million dollars, and the luxury tax paid is less than 10 million dollars.

  So compared with the nearly 50 million U.S. dollars in the 2004-05 season, almost 30 million U.S. dollars was "saved".

  The Knicks reached their peak salary expenditure in the 05-06 season, with a total salary of 127 million U.S. dollars and a luxury tax payment of more than 60 million U.S. dollars.

  In terms of actual income, the Knicks are still far ahead of the league.
