Chapter 1271 Hammer Clause
Old Bass shrugged and said: "Robert, we know this and don't need you to remind us. But unless you want to play alone, we will not allow this to continue to happen.
The emergence of the hammer has destroyed the balance of the alliance, and we must find a way to restore this balance.The current luxury tax agreement is fueling this destructive power, which makes us less competitive. "
Savor's face suddenly turned ugly, but he knew that this was something that could not be changed. If the Suns always won the championship and other teams stopped playing, then the Suns would be finished.
"We need more profit distribution instead of watching you make money. If the league doesn't need our small teams, then we can quit. Anyway, we can't make money, but we are losing money every year."
Spurs boss Holt said confidently.
"Aren't we discussing? Believe me, there must be a solution." Old Bath said.
Savor sneered, there is no way to solve this at all, big teams want to recruit more superstars, but don't want to pay more luxury taxes, how can such a beautiful thing?
"Let me make a suggestion."
That’s when Knicks owner James Dolan said:
"Since the imbalance is caused by the hammer, let's formulate a hammer clause, just like the original Larrybert clause. What do you think?"
"This is a good idea." Old Bass immediately agreed.
A few wealthy bosses also agreed.
"Mr. Dolan, please be more specific." Stern said.
Nodding, Dolan said: "I don't need to say the contribution of the hammer to the entire league. I think the existing salary system limits him. We need to pay more to be worthy of his contribution, otherwise he is likely to Walked away. Actually, he could go boxing, he could go play tennis and who knows if he'll come back?"
Having said that, he looked at Savor.
Not only him, but all the bosses and Stern and other managements are looking at Savor.
In fact, these people both liked and hated Li Ba.
Now the people like Old Bass want to determine whether Li Ba will come back. If Li Ba doesn't come back in the future, they don't need to recruit so many superstars, and the differences this time will not be so big.
"He should be back for the 2012-13 season," Savor said.
"Robert, is he really injured?" Old Bass stared at Savor and asked.
This is what they want to be sure of. If Li Ba is really injured, it will be nothing to worry about, and there is no need to build a superstar lineup.
Savor blinked his eyes, thinking about how to answer, and finally he said: "It is indeed an injury, otherwise how could it be reimbursed for the season?"
Dolan thought for a while, and felt that measures should be taken to restrain the Suns, and said: "I think it is still necessary to establish this hammer clause.
I suggest that if a player can build two dynasties as an absolute core in the first eight seasons of his career, and can average 5*5 regular season data per game for four consecutive seasons, he can play at least thirteen five-pointers. Double data, can win five MVPs in the first eight seasons, such a player is eligible to enjoy a salary that breaks through the salary cap.At the same time, if the Hammer's salary exceeds the salary cap, he does not need to pay the luxury tax. "
Savor's face twitched, did he want to dig the hammer?These bastards!
If this clause passes, how much salary will he need to pay for the Hammers in a year?If he can't pay, then these teams can dig the Hammer openly.
But he couldn't object yet. If he objected, it meant he didn't want to pay higher wages for the hammer, so how could he keep the hammer?
Now he can only hope that those small teams will oppose this clause.
Sure enough, Spurs boss Holt stood up.
Holt, who is chairman of this year's collective bargaining committee, said: "We can pass this clause, but the luxury tax has to be turned in."
Dolan smiled. This is his strategy. The luxury tax must be paid, which will further consume the funds of the Suns, so it is necessary to use the luxury tax to attract these small teams and pass this clause all the time.
He leisurely grilled a cigar and said: "This is impossible. You will only drive the Hammer away. If the Hammer leaves the league, everyone will lose, including you, the Spurs. You Although the Spurs can't make a lot of money now, if he leaves, not only will you have no money to make, but you will definitely lose money."
Holt snorted coldly: "He was injured, who knows how much his condition will recover? Maybe his condition will plummet?"
Dolan said with a smile: "It's not easy. If he is not the previous hammer, then do you think this clause is still useful? We will give him to you, how much will the Spurs offer him?"
Holt choked, but still insisted: "Anyway, the luxury tax has to be handed over."
Dolan said helplessly: "Okay, let's take a step back. We can agree to pay the luxury tax, but we can't implement it according to this agreement. We can keep the original one-to-one ratio."
Holt hesitated and glanced at the other small team owners.
Stern glanced at the crowd, and said at this time: "If everyone does not object, then this clause will be passed."
He also supports this clause, because if Li Ba's status is no longer there, this clause is really useless, and no fool will offer a sky-high contract for Li Ba.
And if Li Ba's condition is still good, then the league will become unbalanced again, then this contract will limit the team where the Hammers are.
Because a team definitely needs not only a hammer, but also other players, and after the team offers a sky-high contract for Li Ba, the team will no longer have sufficient funds to build a good lineup, so There is no competition anymore.
In the end, regarding the luxury tax of this clause, the small team and the big team reached a consensus, and they need to pay the luxury tax in a one-to-one ratio.
At the same time, once the hammer clause is triggered, the player can get [-]% of the salary cap.
After this clause was passed, Savor knew that it was troublesome, really troublesome, and he might not be able to keep Li Ba.
After the meeting adjourned, he faxed the terms to Li Ba.
"Wow, do you want to send me money?" Li Ba sighed after seeing the content.
"Husband, if the salary cap reaches [-] million, you can get a salary of up to [-] million dollars?" the girl asked.
Li Ba nodded, laughed a few times and said, "Did they appoint me to die?"
The girl said: "I think it's a restriction on the Suns? With such a high salary, does the team still have the money to build a lineup?"
Li Ba smiled and nodded, "If you give me 5000 million a year, the team will have to pay another 5000 million in luxury tax. This is indeed a huge burden."
"The Suns won't want you, right?" the girl said.
"It's possible, I can't afford it anymore." Li Ba laughed.
"Then what should we do?" the girl smiled.
"Cold salad, don't care about them, anyway, I will rest next season, let's talk about it when I come back." Li Ba laughed.
He thought for a while, and suddenly said with a sad face: "This is my sorrow, I am too strong, and the team can't even pay me to hire me."
"Puchi!" the girl laughed.
