Chapter 667 NBA Free Agent Market

"Mr. Lawrence, what do the Heat say?"

In a dilapidated apartment building in Detroit, Redick looked anxiously at his agent, Greg Lawrence, smelling of alcohol.

Greg Lawrence was frowning at this time.

Redick asked him the Heat's opinion at this time, how could he know?

As an agent under Weiseman Company, he does have energy on the Heat's side, but it doesn't look at how popular the Heat are now.

Didn’t you see that even Marbury joined with a minimum salary?

According to his news, Marbury is not the only one who wants to join the Heat with a minimum salary. A group of veteran strongmen who want a championship want to join the Heat.

Who are you, JJ Redick?

You can't get stable playing time in a team like the Pistons, and you still want to go to the Heat and get a fully guaranteed contract with a basic salary. Why do you think so?

Just because your wife has a good figure?

This is indeed no problem, but except for me...

"Mr. Lawrence, do JJ and I really need to leave the NBA and the United States?"

Seeing the sad look on the woman's face next to Reddick, Lawrence sighed softly.

He really wanted to help, but it was really difficult.

Redick doesn't even want the Pistons. Even if the Heat are short of players, they won't want a waste.

"Mr. Lawrence, JJ and I can run around, but the child in our belly..."

"Belly, the child in the belly?!"

Greg Lawrence, who was still hesitant, was instantly shocked.

"Mr. Lawrence, I was really too decadent before. Now I really want to work hard. I will work harder for my children. I really want to go to the Heat!"

Greg Lawrence, who recovered from the shock, looked up at the dim room in the dilapidated apartment building, which was glowing with green light, and finally gritted his teeth and nodded.

For children……

"I know, I will try my best, but you... I don't want to smell alcohol on you next time I see you."

He has been working with Redick since Redick was in college.

Redick is in the NCAA, and he is the number one person in the entire NCAA, a proud man of heaven. Otherwise, with his useless performance in the NBA, how could he have married such an 'excellent' wife!

However, in the end, I really didn't expect that Yes would come out of the blue, and Redick's fall would be beyond his imagination.

And this guy is really a loser. An NBA player lives in such a shabby apartment. This is still Detroit, not the Bay Area. What a loser this guy must be to be like this!

but……

Greg Lawrence took a last nostalgic look at the woman next to Redick and the woman's belly, which she had been caressing, and then called his Heat relationship phone number again.

After a while, Greg Lawrence hung up the phone.

"JJ, let's go to Miami next year."

"real?!"

"However, this is not a signing, this is a trial. You don't have the prestige to let the Heat use their precious quota and salary space to sign right away."

Although a little disappointed,

In the end, Redick nodded.

He is not stupid, of course he knows that it is impossible to be taken over by the Heat directly.

After his two-year contract expired, the Pistons made it clear that they no longer wanted him.

June 30, 2008, in the Miami Heat training facility.

JJ Redick has been here for two days.

Here, Redick saw many trial players like him.

There are some excellent undrafted players invited by the Heat, and there are also some players who, like him, are about to lose their jobs in the NBA.

There are also some veterans who are here for the championship who are not afraid of unemployment and have a good reputation in the NBA, but are not enough for the Heat to immediately give away their contracts.

Among these prestigious veterans, the biggest or most famous player is of course the former Hawks player, point guard Tyronn Lue.

As one of the synonyms of NBA classic scenes, Tyronn Lue has been a role player throughout his career, but his fame is not just a role player.

Looking at Tyronn Lue who was training seriously there, Redick curled his lips in disdain.

Before coming to Miami, Redick really had a strong confidence that he could enter the Heat.

But after coming to the Heat, he discovered that he was wrong, and he was very, very wrong.

The current contract with the Miami Heat is too popular.

After Stephon Marbury announced that he would join with a minimum salary, the Heat have successively signed former Suns players Grant Hill and James Jones and former Raptors player Jose Calderon in the past two days.

Not to mention James Jones, I don’t know whose back door he got through.

But the signings of Grant Hill and Jose Calderon were shocking.

After the Raptors acquired Hinrich, they no longer had any interest in Calderon, a restricted free agent whose rookie contract expired. He could go anywhere, but Calderon is not an unknown player in the league. Many teams are. The small middle class people are willing to give him an annual salary of 5 million.

But he finally chose to join the Heat for $9 million in three years.

The same is true for Grant Hill. He was outplayed by Durant in the playoffs last season, but he is not good enough to be a starter. He is definitely a killer on the bench. In the Suns last season, he also averaged 10 per game. He has scored more than 50 points and has a shooting percentage of over 50%. His physical condition and competitive condition are very good.

It is not difficult for Grant Hill to find a contract with an annual salary of 5 million outside, but in the end he also chose to join the Heat for 5 million in two years.

There is also news that has been circulating that the former Pacers player O'Neal is in contact with the Heat.

O'Neal Jr. jumped out of the Pacers' contract early because he didn't want to waste time with the Pacers. He would rather give up the Pacers' 20 million-dollar last-year contract in order to come out and win the championship. This is very shocking.

That’s 20 million!

The Heat definitely can't give O'Neal a 20 million contract. By then, O'Neal will lose at least tens of millions of dollars!

In other words, O'Neal can spend tens of millions of dollars to buy a championship!

In other words, as long as he can stand out from the trial and become a Heat player, he will earn 10 million!

Thinking of this, Redick, who was already depressed, seemed to be full of energy again.

Two years of red wine career has already destroyed his strength and talent to a great extent. At the same time, his will has also been almost worn away. The will weakened by alcohol always retreats. If you don't look for a little stimulation mentally, it will be very easy. Collapsed.

If it weren't for the temptation of picking up the $10 million and defeating Yes, he would have been frightened and ran away when he saw the fierce competition at the Heat's training ground.

And now...

There are 10 million on the ground ahead, and the end of the road ahead is the spear that defeated Yes!

If you don’t move forward, are you still a human being?

"Shit Yes!"

"Shit Yes!"

"Shit Yes!"

Redick's shooting like a madman and his muttering like an idiot made him a celebrity in the Miami Heat training facility like Tyronn Lue.

After James came to the Miami Heat, he was really busy because everything needed to be started from scratch.

The team's selection issues, the team's internal relations, and even his own family relocation issues need to be dealt with. It can be said that he is very busy these days.

But no matter how busy he is, James knows exactly what his purpose is for coming to the Heat.

champion!

Now that he has become the object of hatred around the world, he is completely freed from his previous confusion and confusion.

He doesn't need other people's respect, he doesn't need other people's love.

He just needs others to respect the champion!

He will use the championship to win everything again!

Unless the whole world doesn't even respect the champion.

Then it doesn't matter even more if he is hated and disliked.

Champions must be hated, so what’s the point of champions like Yes and Jordan?

When the time comes, he, Yes and Jordan will be destroyed together!

Just like the whole world said that Rondo beat the sacred statistic of triple-double into the mortal world and the mud.

And he will either win the championship and go to heaven, or he will drag great champions like Yes and Jordan into hell!

When the time comes, when I win one, two, three, no, even four, five, six, or seven championships, let’s see how you still hate me!

champion!

This is James' only pursuit now, and to win the championship, James knows exactly what he needs.

With him, Wade, Ben Gordon and Bosh as well as Chandler, Marbury, Grant Hill and the upcoming O'Neal, the Heat's strength has surpassed the entire league.

No joke at all, the Heat's current hard power is the best in the entire NBA history!

No team is more powerful than the current Heat. Just as many American media said when evaluating Grant Hill and Calderon joining the Heat, Grandma O'Neal can win the championship even if she becomes the Heat's head coach.

Of course, the current Heat coach Spoelstra is definitely much better than O'Neal's grandmother.

James has never won a championship in reality.

But he has received this honor countless times in his dreams.

He knows very well that if you want to win the championship, strength is the most important, but in addition to strength, there is also spirit!

He is now leading the strongest team in history, and this is correct.

But don’t forget, Yes also won the championship with the weakest team in history!

On what basis?

It’s the spirit!

Even if the Heat don't have the spirit of sacrifice for each other like the SuperSonics, they still need the courage to go forward and kill their opponents!

He needs to find players like this.

Although the people currently training at the Heat training ground are all trash, what he is looking for is spirit rather than strength.

This kind of spirit was visible the first time he entered the training ground!

"LeBron, why are you here?"

The Heat assistant coach in charge of this trial was surprised to see James' appearance.

This uncle is the current ‘general manager’ of the Heat!

This is a joke within the Heat, because Heat boss Pat Riley now listens to James on everything.

Although the question of who is the boss of the Heat, James or Wade, is still being debated, but in terms of the team's authority, how can Wade compare to James!

And based on observations these days.

It doesn't matter if he offends Wade. They have offended him before. Wade himself doesn't know that he has been offended.

But to offend James...

As long as they see James's cold and cold eyes, no one will be afraid.

This uncle is really different from Wade!

"What's the situation with those two now?"

The assistant coach really didn't expect James to inquire about the two lunatics from the training camp as soon as he came up...

"Redick has been cursing at Yes for a long time, and Tyronn Lue has been cursing at Stephen Curry since he came to the team..."

The whole world knows about the relationship between Redick, Tyronn Lue and Yes. Redick was humiliated to the point of being humiliated, while Tyronn Lue was humiliated by Yes' apprentice Curry, who turned on him. I have done squatting on the toilet.

Obviously, these two people were a little abnormally stimulated by Yes and Curry.

"LeBron, do you want me to clear these two people out?"

"Purge? No, sign them."

"Sign, sign them?! But, but their strength?!"

With their current level of rubbish, what's the use of signing them? !

"Even waste has value for reuse. If you sign them with the cheapest contract, you won't lose money."

After James withdrew his gaze from Redick and Tyronn Lue, he turned and left.

Of course, we won't lose money, and we can spread the resentment and resentment against Yes in the team, which is worth paying a lot for!

As for the strength of these two people?

Haha, does the Heat's current strength require them to play?

The Heat's assistant coach was helpless about James' request, but he couldn't really listen to James's everything just because he was afraid of James.

Of course, he needs to ask the team's real boss Pat Riley for instructions on signing a contract.

"Listen to LeBron and sign these two losers."

After listening to the assistant coach's words, Pat Riley's expression never changed much.

It wasn't until the assistant coach left that a faint smile appeared on Pat Riley's face.

"Awesome, LeBron is awesome!"

Pat Riley has been in the NBA for so many years. He has coached many players and worked with many players, including historical strongmen like Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

But a born winner like LeBron James, a born winner, this is really the first time he has seen it!

In the NBA, it is really rare to find a natural winner who is so smart and knows how to win and win championships!

"The chosen one? Compared with the born winner, what is the chosen one?"

Pat Riley's eyes are constantly flashing. Getting James will probably be the greatest achievement in his life!

LeBron James will create an incredible dynasty for him in Miami, a miraculous dynasty that can rival Jerry West's dynasty!

"JJ, congratulations, you are now a Miami Heat player!"

Seriously, Greg Lawrence is a bit incredible.

When he brought Redick here, he really didn't think that Redick could be spotted by the Heat.

And according to the information he received internally, it was personally appointed by LeBron James, the head player of the Heat!

This is shocking.

Not to mention Greg Lawrence, Redick was also confused after receiving the Miami Heat's commitment to sign.

He had never met James, so why was he appointed by James?

However, it doesn't matter. The most important thing is that he will become the NBA championship player for the Miami Heat for at least six years in the future!

He will be able to defeat the humiliation given to him on the stage of the finals and get back all of it!

"Yes, you didn't think that I could still stand up and have the opportunity to trample you under my feet, right?!"

Redick's mind is now full of images of James, Wade, Bosh and Gordon stepping on Yes, and around Yes, Durant, Harden, Milicic, Millsap, Rondo , Gasol, Barea and other Sonics players have all laid down!

"Now, why are you fighting with me, hahahaha!"

Seeing Redick now laughing wildly like the protagonist, Lawrence knew that Redick's alcohol-induced hysteria had relapsed.

But this time, he felt there was nothing wrong with what Redick said.

He can have such confidence and qualifications to have such a hysterical dream.

Because he is now a Miami Heat player, a noble future champion, a Miami Heat player.

He has gone from a loser to a destined winner.

Now Redick is laughing wildly, thinking crazily about the scene of trampling Ye Si under his feet. Ye Si certainly doesn't know this. To be honest, he has forgotten that he once had an opponent named Redick.

Now the Leafs and the SuperSonics are actually trying to sign an excellent player.

Arenas' attempt failed.

Not only did he fail, after Arenas signed with the Wizards, he called Ye Si arrogantly and criticized him.

"Yes, is it possible that under the evil coercion of LeBron James and the Heat, this is all you have left?!"

"Where's your courage, your perseverance, your fearlessness?!"

"Yes, remember what I said. The only one who can help you is yourself. Don't blindly pursue shortcuts!"

Listening to Arenas hahahahahahahaha hanging up the phone opposite, Ye Si was very confused at the time.

The Seattle SuperSonics' free agency efforts this year have been fruitless.

Tried Arenas, was rejected by Arenas, and was criticized.

Marion tried Marion, but Marion was tempted but still refused. He chose to take a salary cut to stay with Nash.

"Yes, I'm sorry, you are very nice, but Steve and the others have agreed that we will work hard to be together forever..."

After Marion failed, the Sonics tentatively contacted the 76ers and hesitated whether to give Iguodala the maximum salary.

Iguodala was very happy when he received the invitation from Yes, and later sold Yes and the Sonics. In the end, he and the Sonics were used as tools to raise the price, and he signed a 5-year contract with the 76ers. A maximum salary contract of 90 million per year.

These big fish in the free market have been almost all wiped out after a round of attempts by Yes and the SuperSonics.

Iverson chose to renew his contract with the Pistons, Artest and Ariza went to the Lakers, and O'Neal Jr. has joined the Heat...

"Yes is the worst eloquent lobbyist I have ever seen!"

"In this regard, James can knock him out of the universe, hahahaha!"

This was Ye Si's first time working as a lobbyist in the free market. He didn't get anything out of it, and he was even 'ridiculed'.

Watching Pippen laughing heartily on TV, Ye Si felt helpless.

"However, this is also why we love Yes so much. It can be seen that he never has shortcuts in his heart!"

"We love fairy tales where shortcuts are never thought of and there are no shortcuts in mind!"

Isn't there a shortcut...

Looking at Pippen on the TV, and then looking at the time on the TV, seconds...

July 1, 2008, finally arrived...
