Chapter 104 Draft and salary space(2/2)
Danny Ferry has already made a noise and is about to sell out several major contracts in the team.
Including Jamison, who earns an annual salary of $13.36 million, and Richard Hamilton, who earns $12.5 million...
Even Xiao Mo, who was 9.3 million, was on the sell-off list.
Danny Ferry was like a boss who was selling for a street clearance sale, shouting: "Former All-Star Power Forward with more than $10 million, former champion shooting guard with more than $10 million, and top attacking point guard with more than $9 million, all don't have money to sell! All don't have money to sell!"
Unfortunately, there were few responses.
The reason is very simple. These days, there are not many teams that can afford tens of millions of salary space, and the few do not need Jamison and Hamilton who have entered a downward period.
If it is an expiration contract, it's okay. The problem is that Jamison's contract has two years left. In addition to the $13.36 million next season, there is still a big contract of $15.08 million a year next season, which is really too locked in the salary space.
The same goes for Richard Hamilton, with $12.5 million next season and $12.5 million next season.
For most teams with cap space, they are reluctant to swallow huge non-expired contracts at the beginning of the season.
After all, with the salary space in hand, who wouldn't dream of signing LeBron James?
If you want to swallow these two big contracts, you have to wait until there is no hope.
But for the Knights, at that time, daylily will be really cold.
Danny Ferry may not be that smart, but he is not that stupid either. He knows that it is not enough to just list these players, and he has to take the initiative.
So, Danny Ferry began to look for teams with cap space all over the world and actively negotiated.
“So, who have space?”
"What else can be found, the Knicks, Nets, Heat, Bulls... These companies have room, but they all have other ideas about this summer, and it is impossible to trade with the Cavaliers."
"The Timberwolves who have no idea about this summer, the King... has plenty of salary space."
Listening to Boss Qiao on the other end of the phone, Li Ke tilted his head and clamped his phone, exposing the facts: "Danny Ferry's hopes are all in the latter two."
"It is said that Jeff Petri (kings general manager) has already spoken a lot from the lion. He must be willing to swallow the big contract of Jamison or Richard Hamilton, but the Timberwolves, David Kahn is stupid, and he may be fooled by Danny Ferry..."
As he was talking, something suddenly seemed to have happened to Lao Qiao, and the phone hung up for a moment.
When he called back, Li Ke heard Lao Qiao shouting excitedly: "Latest news, the Cavaliers on the Timberwolves are also facing competition, mainly the Knicks, and they want to deal with Eddie Curry's big contract."
The Knicks want to deal with Eddie Curry's big contract?
Li Ke, who was already sitting outside the terminal of the airport, touched his chin.
He realized something...
"The Knicks want to send Eddie Curry away in the first round?"
"That's right!"
"What is Donny Walsh going to do?"
"The gossip, they have locked in Amaresta Tadameier and are now fighting for LeBron."
"If they locked in Dwyane Wade or Chris Bosh, LeBron still had a chance, but Amare…"
Although he knew that the Knicks could not get Lebang, Li Ke understood the current situation from the rumors of this verbal transaction.
Faced with the huge brands this summer, the Knicks are already crazy and try every means to send Eddie Curry away, who has occupied more than 10 million US dollars in order to make some more space.
"The Knicks are going to play in the first round, but the Cavaliers cannot make it. This situation is really embarrassing."
Last summer, Danny Ferry paid a first round to win Richard Hamilton.
Now, when he is sending Richard Hamilton away, he will pay another first round, no matter what, it is unacceptable.
Therefore, the most Knight can do is the second round.
Compared with the Knicks, there was a huge gap immediately.
"Also, Sheldon, I've decided that we'll get a kick too!"
"ah?"
Li Ke didn't expect that Lao Qiao had his own ideas.
...
Li Ke first rushed to the studio of Twentieth Century Fox, where he met Denzel Washington.
"Hey, Sheldon, long time no see!"
In the studio, Denzel Washington is filming a movie called "The Speed of Danger".
When I saw Li Ke, I just shook hands and said hello in a hurry, and then asked the assistant to pour coffee and stuffed the script for Li Ke to read first.
"This is the script. You can take a look first. If you have any good suggestions, you can give it."
The script was obtained, a very thin stack.
Li Ke glanced around roughly and was a little different from the future thunderous juncture.
Thunder and Thunder is Xiao Du's talent replaced by fans, so Xiao Du became a genius on the court, but the fans who exchanged talent became stars of the high school team.
The script provided by Denzel Washington is about two people exchanging souls.
eike ads.
Li Ke didn't know which of the two scripts was better, nor did he want to know.
Anyway, he had already decided that he would not appear in this movie.
...
After reading the script, Li Ke, who was idle, started wandering around.
He also met some familiar people, either friendly or hostile.
Friendly like Tom Cruise, hugged Li Ke enthusiastically, and hostile like Snoop dogg, and glared at Li Ke fiercely on the spot.
Li Ke just spread his hands and said nothing.
Keep going down and walk deeper...
A low-high voice came from a distance. Emmm, it should be a girl, she is quite beautiful, but she didn't look at Li Ke.
Li Ke didn't care. In order to avoid Zhu Ge's appearance, he even looked away.
But this move...
The girl who was gradually approaching suddenly rushed up with her teeth and claws.
Li Ke was frightened by pick-and-roll and thought the other party had rabies.
until……
"Damn it, didn't you say you would like to apologize to me when you arrive in Los Angeles?"
Li Ke then realized: "Emma?"
It’s not because Li Ke is slow to react. He is really a little face-blind to Europeans and Americans. He can’t remember the other party just by looking at the photos.
But now... he held the short arm for basketball players and the long arm for ordinary people, blocked Emma, and then looked at the other party carefully.
I have to say that it is very beautiful, and looking at the side face, it is somewhat in line with the aesthetics of the Chinese.
Wait... Why should I consider whether she conforms to the aesthetics of the Chinese?
Thinking of this, Li Ke pushed the other party away regardless of the situation.
