Chapter 1117 O'Neill and Dayao on the shelves again
This news is far more surprising than the transaction. It was a championship team last season and reached the finals. This season has entered the reconstruction, which is embarrassing.
O'Neal still has a contract of 2000 million. This is his last season, and he is estimated to be retiring soon. After he was put on the shelves, no one cared about him.
Strong teams don't need him, because now they are building teams for the Suns, and he is too fat, slow and old.
And weak teams don't need his big contract to occupy space.
This can't help but make people sigh, the former big shark has been completely reduced to a bad contract.
Dayao's situation is even more pessimistic. His contract is bigger, and there are still two years of contract close to 5000 million US dollars. Because of his stress fracture, many teams are also somewhat discouraged.
A big center like him with a stress fracture in his foot is a big problem.
"What the hell, I don't know what to do now."
When Li Ba called, Dayao cursed depressingly.
"Still in the winery?" Li Ba asked.
"En." Dayao muffled.
"Don't worry, you will have another family." Li Ba hung up the phone after finishing speaking.
Then he called Gao Yuanyuan and asked, "Yuanyuan, is Dazhi's next home settled?"
"It's done." Gao Yuanyuan said.
"where?"
"Knicks, 500 million in three years. I'm in New York right now, and Dazhi is here too, ready to sign a contract." Gao Yuanyuan said with a smile.
Li Ba was stunned, and said with a chuckle, "That's right, the Knicks are the richest. By the way, after Dazhi is settled over there, you can ask about Dayao's affairs."
Gao Yuanyuan said: "I know his current situation, but he is different from you. He is not my player. Can Mr. Duffy let me intervene?"
"It's okay. I'll tell him. I'll notify you later. You should analyze the situation first." Li Ba said.
Gao Yuanyuan said again: "But I don't know how he is recovering now, how should I make a decision?"
Li Ba said with a smile: "I believe he can still play in the London Olympics."
"What did you say?" Gao Yuanyuan confirmed.
"I said so." Li Ba said.
"Then if he has no next home, he will go to the Suns?" Gao Yuanyuan said.
"That's fine too." Li Ba said.
At this moment, in Dayao's winery, apart from his parents and wife, his two managers are there, one is Bill Duffy and the other is Zhang Mingji.
Zhang Mingji is a relative of Dayao. He immigrated to the United States in his early years and was in charge of Dayao's domestic affairs and the economic team of Dayao.
After Dayao hung up the phone, Bill Duffy received a call from Li Ba within 2 minutes.
"Bill, what are you going to do?" Li Ba asked.
Bill Duffy said with a headache: "Hammer, the situation is very troublesome now. If it cannot be traded, the Cavaliers will probably adopt the method of buying out the contract."
"Is there no next family to contact you?" Li Ba asked.
"Yes, but the willingness to trade is not strong enough. Like you, Yao has two years left on his contract, which is almost 5000 million. If he comes back in a bad state, he will fall into his hands. And Yao is almost 30 years old, plus Injured, no one is optimistic about his status," Bill Duffy said.
"What do you think should be done now?" Li Ba asked.
"This one……"
Bill Duffy didn't know what to say.
Li Ba said directly: "Perhaps you can consult Gao, she should have an opinion."
"high?"
Bill Duffy was taken aback.
At this time Li Ba had already hung up the phone, Bill Duffy put down the phone, thought for a while and said to Dayao: "Tie Hammer's call just now, he suggested that we ask Gao for his opinion."
"Yuanyuan? All right, I'll call her right away." Dayao said quickly.
He knew that Gao Yuanyuan was very capable, and the team under him was more than ten times stronger than the team Zhang Mingji had built for him. Both China and the United States had a lot of contacts.
The call was connected quickly.
"Dayao?"
"Yuanyuan, please give me an idea."
"Well, how about this, you stop quietly and see what the Cavaliers will do in the end. If the Cavaliers really want to rebuild, they will definitely find a way to trade you in exchange for the draft pick. You don't need to worry, the Cavaliers are the ones who are in a hurry. By the way, do you have any requirements for the trading team?" Gao Yuanyuan asked.
After Gao Yuanyuan said this, Dayao felt at ease and said, "Of course I want to go to a stronger team and be able to play the main force."
"Then I suggest you put pressure on the Cavaliers and ask to go to your favorite team, such as the Suns." Gao Yuanyuan said.
"Ah, did the hammer let me go? He didn't say that just now." Dayao was startled.
"No, let me make a metaphor." Gao Yuanyuan said hastily.
"Oh." Dayao was a little disappointed.
Gao Yuanyuan said again: "If the Cavaliers can't trade you, they will probably buy out your contract. At this time, you can agree, and then seek another home. At this time, you don't have a big contract, but it is more convenient. But you want Find out first, do the Cavaliers really want to trade you?"
"There is no doubt about this. I have talked with the Cavaliers general manager and the boss on the phone. We really want to trade, otherwise we will buy it out." Dayao said.
Gao Yuanyuan thought for a while and said, "Well then, don't look for another home, just buy it out. Although you will lose some money, it will help you find another home."
She made up her mind and gave Dayao to the Suns.
She has a source that the Heat's deal was secretly promoted by Nike. The Heat's strengthening is not good for Li Ba and the Suns. She needs to make the Suns stronger.
Dayao has some doubts, he is not sure how long he can play, what if he can't find another player?
"It's so decided, trust me, you will have a next family." Gao Yuanyuan hung up the phone after finishing speaking.
Dayao didn't ask, he was too passive in this matter, and he didn't have any confidence at all.
Gao Yuanyuan then contacted Adi, and Adi had to take action on this matter.
The Suns were overwhelmed by the Heat, and the biggest loss was Adi.
It is best for Dayao to join the Suns with a basic salary, but someone has to be responsible for his losses. Adi just wants to expand his share in the NBA, so it should be possible to give Dayao a good sponsorship contract and subsidize Dayao’s losses in disguise. accepted.
Gao Yuanyuan quickly contacted Adi, who just wanted to re-sign a lifetime contract with Li Ba, and the two hit it off.
In the next few days, the Cavaliers began to sell off players and became a real player supermarket. Among them, Billups and Maurice Williams were traded to the Celtics.
On October 10, a week before the start of the new season, the Cavaliers announced that they had reached a buyout agreement with O'Neal and Dayao, getting rid of the two biggest burdens.
O'Neal has already found his next home in advance, and signed with the Celtics with a two-year minimum salary of 370 million. He will partner with Rasheed Wallace in the inside combination.
Including Billups and Mo Buchuan who were traded two days ago, the Celtics have received three of the Cavaliers' top five starters last season, plus Pierce, and the roaring god Rasheed Wallace originally traded, The Celtics made a gorgeous transformation and became a strong team in the league.
After Dayao was bought out, Bill Duffy immediately received calls from many teams, but at this time Dayao had already arrived in Phoenix.
