Rejecting Pau Gasol is too difficult for Cuban.
"Pau Gasol, this is Gasol, why did you refuse? I don't think it's a problem to pay more luxury tax?" Cuban couldn't help muttering in front of Qin Yang and Don Nelson Jr.
Having an owner who cares too much about the team can be annoying at times.
After being unable to reinforce inside, the Mavericks aimed at the outside again.
But unfortunately, the outside line was quickly locked.
DeRozan, Conley, and McCollum have all signed huge contracts, with an annual salary of 2000 million+, or even close to 3000 million. This contract was unbelievable five years ago.
Because in the entire league, only the top superstars can get contracts with an annual salary of more than 2000 million, and now the second-tier superstars are getting contracts close to 3000 million, which is really capricious.
But...it also makes sense.
Because the salary of the league has skyrocketed in recent years, according to media reports, the NBA and TNT have signed a huge broadcaster, which will more than double the previous amount.
This year's NBA salary cap is $400 million, an increase of about 7% from before.
In this way, although the player's contract has been reduced a lot due to the previous labor dispute, in terms of amount, the maximum salary of each team has still increased.
Now, the team's maximum salary is close to $4000 million.
This is not counted, if by 2020, that is, four years later, the salary cap of each NBA team is 1.2 million U.S. dollars, and the maximum salary is 800 million U.S. dollars.
That is to say, the seemingly large contract of nearly 3000 million now will definitely not be regarded as a large contract after four years, at most it will be regarded as a second-tier contract.
This is the salary gap.
With the expansion of the NBA, the increase in salary, and the improvement of team construction, the future NBA will become more and more attractive, and the confrontation between players will become stronger and stronger.
It can be said that the more money, the stronger the strength.
This is the eternal truth.
In the 90s, dunking from the free throw line was a very rare star, and his physical fitness was overwhelming. At that time, as long as he could dunk from the free throw line, he could get a first-round pick in the draft.
But now, which team does not have three or four beasts who can dunk at the free throw line.
Even a player of this level, if the potential is not so great, is likely to lose the selection.
The NBA in the future is destined to become more and more competitive, stronger and more profitable.
For example, Qin Yang's contract next year has not been formally discussed yet, but Cuban has already mentioned it. It will definitely be the largest contract in the NBA so far, bar none.
The outside line is almost the same as the renewal.
In this way, there is only one superstar left.
On July 7th, Qin Yang invited Kevin Durant to his farm.
"Kevin, how are you thinking?"
Qin Yang was very relaxed, sitting on the boat and fishing.
Kevin Durant is also fishing, but obviously, his mood is not so calm.Since entering the off-season, news about Durant has been buzzing.
Especially after the other superstars have confirmed their contracts in a short period of time, Kevin Durant is the only one left.
And Durant's reputation is also the greatest among all people.
"Bruce, I haven't figured it out yet!"
Durant answered with some boredom.
Qin Yang shrugged: "Kevin, I usually don't express my opinion on this kind of thing, but I have to say that you have to make a decision that you won't regret."
"Stay in Oklahoma? Please, I didn't hit you. If you play with Russell for another five years, you won't have a championship. I won't say anything else. You won't be able to pass this level in Dallas. Not only that, even if I get injured, you have entered the finals. Are you sure you can play against the Cavaliers?"
"It's better than dealing with you!"
Kevin Durant complained.
Durant was really depressed, not because he was afraid of the Mavericks, but because he was afraid of Qin Yang. Qin Yang was not good at playing, but steady, like a dog, and he won the whole game.
Durant can't use his strength.
This kind of ability to organize an attack and use everyone to attack is not something that ordinary people can possess. It can be said that Qin Yang is the most invincible existence in active service.
"Kevin, I invited you to join Dallas not only because we can win championships with me, but... we can easily win championships one after another."
"I can tell you frankly, if you want a big contract, give me the honor. If you want honor, ok, no problem, you join with a lower salary, and I will lower my shots in the playoffs and give you the MVP."
Qin Yang dared to say and do anything.
After forming the Dynasty team, Qin Yang has already calmed down.
Now Qin Yang doesn't want to be so tired from playing, and it's time to enjoy life.There is nothing wrong with playing healthy basketball at a young age.
Kevin Durant nodded when he heard this: "Bruce, this is what you said. I will cut my salary, so don't compete with me for MVP!"
Qin Yang rolled his eyes, curled his lips:
"I've already taken four of these things, it's not interesting!"
……
On July 7, at Qinyang Farm, Kevin Durant held a press conference.
The location of the press conference was very interesting, it was actually in Qin Yang's farm, and when it came to the situation of the Mavericks, there was no need to talk about it. Many people rushed up like sharks smelling blood.
Kevin Durant was a little nervous when he held a press conference. This is not the first time he has been interviewed, but this time, it is of great significance:
"Today I am very happy that I have reached an agreement with the Dallas Mavericks. In the next two years, I will stay here and work hard for the championship together!"
Hold the grass!
As soon as Durant's words fell, everyone was boiling.
This... Durant actually went to Dallas to hold a group.
This is very embarrassing. If this happened six or seven years ago, Durant would definitely be sprayed to death. A top five superstar in the league went to another team to form a group.
Two top-five superstars in the league are going to join forces, which...is too immoral.
But the media didn't know what to say.
Because this happened before, and it was the Big Three, two top five and three top [-]. Compared with the Heat's grouping, the Mavericks are more disciplined.
But... not right.
The Mavericks are already a dynasty team, and their overall strength is terrifying. Now that Kevin Durant has joined, how can other teams play.
Many media have begun to imagine the situation of the next season.
The Mavericks crushed all the way, broke the regular season record, and finally won the championship.
The plot is all over.
Facing the turbulent media, Qin Yang and Cuban helped share the pressure.
Qin Yang:
"The NBA is just a commercial competitive league. It's normal to change a team. I have stayed in four teams, and there is nothing to beat. James also made a decision to go to Miami. There is nothing wrong with Kevin's choice. There is nothing to dispute."
