Chapter 436 New Knicks Assemble!Veterans, come hug your thighs! (Second update, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)
Twitter on the 28th was very lively. First, Howard posted on Twitter a few samurai swords he bought when he traveled to Japan in the summer, forcing the management of Palace Magic to trade him.
However, "Warcraft" failed to fulfill its wish, because the Magic did not find a suitable next home for Howard, and the Orlando media also ridiculed Howard, thinking that Howard was a loser and coward, so angry that Howard almost went to the wrong person.
Secondly, Nash has announced that he will not renew his contract with the Suns. According to Woshen, the 36-year-old two-time MVP winner is likely to join the Lakers with a basic salary.
Lin Yi knew that this was the butterfly effect caused by his little wings.
Lin Yi also launched a battle for Nash with Kobe on Twitter.
"@Steve.Nash, don't listen to Kobe, I'm a fan of him, I know him too well, the Lakers are useless, come to New York!" Big devil Lin Yi said.
"@Steve.Nash, don't believe Lin, I have won five championships, he only has one, in terms of experience, the Knicks are far inferior to the Lakers!" Bryant said.
D'Antoni was very curious. The Knicks didn't really need Nash, so why did Lin Yi tweet to make trouble.
"Mr. Coach, I'm making trouble!" Of course Lin Yi knew that the Knicks didn't need Nash, because the real headline on the 28th belonged to the Knicks.
The league did not add to the Knicks, the deal between the Knicks and the Hornets was completed!
Knicks main bargaining chips: Gallinari, Lou Williams, Hawks first-round pick in 13
Hornets main chip: Chris Paul
Lin Yi remembers that the Clippers traded Paul’s bargaining chips back then. The main reason why the Lakers failed to rob was because of their limited salary space.
But this deal with the Knicks is different, because what they sent was the second leader and sixth man of the championship team.
Gallinari is handsome and has a good-looking style of play. Lu Wei has proved his worth in the Knicks.
The Knicks' salary space for the new season is still their biggest advantage, and they don't even have to think about how to match Paul's contract.
The deal is done!
So the Hornets, who are in custody, can't disagree with the deal.
After all, Stern doesn't want to see a top guard like Paul being "abolished" because of the Hornets' trusteeship. The Knicks' offer is full of sincerity. If it doesn't work, the Knicks can continue to increase.
Stern himself is happy to see the combination of Lin Yi and Paul. The Mavericks' cosmic lineup in the new season looks quite scary. The Knicks are single-core anyway. Stern will not deliberately promote the Knicks to surpass the Bulls, but the Knicks traded Paul with sincerity. Why should he add trouble?
Gallinari wants to go out to fight for a big contract, and Lu Wei is the same. No one wants to play the sixth man all the time, and Lu Wei also wants to work hard towards the All-Star.
So the transaction between the Hornets and the Knicks successfully dominated the headlines on the 28th.
Chris Paul airborne in New York, many Chinese fans found that Lin Yi's height and Paul's height combined is a terrible number.
The 404 combination was born!
After the Knicks and the Hornets reached a deal, Paul immediately sent a farewell text message to the Hornets uniform team, teammates, and staff. Even though the Hornets fans were in every possible way, they could only bid farewell to the Queen Bee in tears.
On Chinese forums, jokes about Paul joining the Knicks also began to fly all over the sky.
"What am I going to do here?"
"Touch the floor of the Eastern Conference Finals and wear the championship ring!"
"What if I don't go back?"
"It will never come back!"
Public opinion from the outside world also exploded the moment Paul joined the Knicks. As for Lin Yi teasing the old monk, it was purely changing the subject.
In fact, as Lin Yi imagined, people don't think that Paul and Lin Yi are forming a group. After all, the Knicks are paying the second leader and the sixth man as bargaining chips. People are more concerned about whether Lin Yi and Paul can coexist together.
Because a new combination is born, it will always lead to people's various conjectures.
And the pressure is mainly on Paul's side. Lin Yi has proved that he can lead the team to win the championship with a single core, but although Paul is known as the league's number one guard, he has never even touched the floor of the Western Conference Finals.
There were even Deron fans who joked: Chris is here to be beaten again.
You must know that Deron Williams is currently the head guard of the Nets. The daily routine of eating, sleeping and playing Paul in the West seems to have been moved to the East.
Paul's determination could not be described as indecisive, and Lin Yi's words "Come with me to build a dynasty" completely moved him.
From the perspective of the lineup structure, the Knicks' future team has basically been completed, but Lin Yi knows how dangerous it is to shrink the season, because the new Knicks also need to adjust, and they have already won the championship, but Lin Yi found that defending the title seems to be a more difficult thing.
……
Not long after Paul joined the Knicks, Nash also made his own decision.
The Knicks have Paul, Billups, and Livingston on the back line. I think I can still play, so the Lakers are undoubtedly the best choice.
What should come will always come. There seems to be a line in the dark. Kobe and Nash must be a pair, but I don’t know if Nash, the assist king last season, can successfully break through the average of 5 assists per game in the new season.
Kobe was very happy that Nash joined the Lakers in advance, but in Kobe's view, if the Lakers can send Bynum away, that would be a real reinforcement.
You know, after the lockout, "Little Shark" has become a ball.
During the lockout period, Bynum's life was simply turned upside down, eating and drinking, traveling everywhere, singing and singing every night, but unfortunately he didn't ask Odom the trick for three days and three nights, that is the bliss on earth.
In addition, Yi Jianlian signed a four-year contract worth 4 million yuan with the Wizards. Ah Lian successfully stayed in the NBA. In the future, he may take advantage of the big salary increase and mix it up with a contract with an annual salary starting at tens of millions.
The NBA teams are so lively, because there is too little time left for them to operate this time, so they often see such a scene during negotiations: Don't make detours, just say, what do you want, we are in a hurry.
On the 29th, with Paul joining the team, Motel flew to New York, and the Knicks officially assembled for the new season.
At present, at the center position, the Knicks have Boxing Champion and Whiteside. At the power forward position, there are Morris, Battier, and Motel. At the small forward position, there are Lin Yi, Chandler Jr., and Parsons. At the shooting guard position, there are Danny Green, Tony Allen, and Klay.
Little Chandler got a 4-year 1800 million contract in the new season, the boxing champion got a 4-year 5600 million contract, Battier renewed his contract with the Knicks for 2 years 600 million, and Danny Green renewed his contract for 4 years 2300 million.
As soon as Billups' ten-million contract expires next year, the Knicks' salary cap will be vacated again. As for Lin Yi's contract extension after the "Lin Yi privilege", it will not be included in the Knicks' total salary until the 13/14 season.
James Dolan finally doesn't have to worry about having no place to spend money, but he still misses the time when the Knicks paid the luxury tax.
Lin Yi didn't intend to save money for Dolan. The Knicks still had a spot on the roster. Lin Yi felt that it was time to recruit those veterans who wanted to win the championship.
So on the afternoon of the 29th, after the first day of training, Lin Yi posted on Twitter: "Are there any like-minded friends who want to win the championship together? O'Neal has personally practiced, and the Knicks Championship Group looks forward to your joining!"
Lin Yi's original English is more harmonious, but that's probably what it means.
O'Neal, who just joined TNT TV station, had a dark face. These days, he was showing off to Barkley his five championships and the fifth ring he was about to receive after the start of the new season. As a result, isn't Lin Yi trying to demolish himself?
O'Neill tweeted @大魔王.林易, "It's obviously your thigh holding the shark!"
Lin Yi replied to O'Neill, "Shaq, you forgot again, sharks have no legs!"
O'Neal was very stuffy. He decided to wait until the start of the new season to slander Lin Yi and make complaints about Kobe. It's time to start Shaquille-I'm a troll-O'Neal's commentary career!
Many veterans who were watching asked their agents to contact the Knicks, and among these people, there was a name that Lin Yi was very familiar with.
