Chapter 818 (1/2)
On the first day after the free agent market opened, the biggest news was that link renewed his contract with Grizzlies with a top salary of $93 million for five years.
Link played in the Grizzlies for four years. Normally, he is no different from the rookie who has just fulfilled his rookie contract.
Usually, a player who has just completed a rookie contract signs a top salary with the team, even if the top salary is not particularly high, it is worthy of his value.
For example, Michael Owen, the draft number one pick with link in the same year, would get a contract range of 85 million to 90 million if he extended his contract with the Cavaliers this summer, similar to that of link.
Although Owen has great potential, because he is still young, the price of 85-90 million yuan is less than 100 million yuan, which is in line with his value.
But people were surprised when Owen's fellow rink was revealed to have signed with Grizzlies by 93 million.
People always think that link's salary is too low, how can his contract be higher than Owen's?
It's not hard to explain why people feel this way. Because no player in NBA history has ever won the championship twice in the first four years of his career, and has completed the personal Grand Slam achievements of double burst, MVP, fmvp and the best defensive player!
Link, like Owen, is equivalent to a rookie who has just completed his rookie contract, but his achievements are not comparable to those who have just completed his rookie contract!
Link and Owen, even can not be compared, hard honor is too poor!
As a result, people feel that link's salary is lower than his strength. After all, Anthony, who didn't even enter the playoffs last season, was revealed to have won at least 120 million!
Outside, most people think grizzly is a big bargain. They left a superstar for the price of an ordinary star!
Of course, in addition to that, some people think that grizzly management is particularly brain damaged. The reason why this view appears is mainly because of the veto power and player options at the end of the contract.
”The Grizzlies' 93 million contract is the maximum amount allowed by the rules. They don't owe link anything. Why give him a trade veto? They can't even get rid of him
”The Grizzlies may have forgotten how Kobe used his trade veto to torture the Lakers. This kind of despotic clause can't be arbitrarily used. ”
”KD doesn't have a trade veto, LeBron doesn't have a trade veto, but link does. In fact, without link, there are only five people in NBA history who have veto power. Ha ha ha ha, the Grizzlies are really pathetic. This is the sorrow of small city teams
”Player options? God, if the Grizzlies don't work in four years, link will kick them out
”The Grizzlies are so brainless, they're completely under link's control!”
”A lot of overlord clauses let us see the side of link merchants.”
”Grizzly bear simply renamed Memphis link.”
second days, Linke found that countless fans make complaints about the Internet.
If you have been a villain for a long time, you will be blackmailed if you sign a contract.
I don't know. I thought it was link who put a knife in Wallace's neck and PELA's neck and forced them to add the veto power and player options.
In this regard, link is also quite speechless. Actually, there are still people who say that Durant has no right to trade veto. Link really wants to ask the fans who said that, does Durant have two championships?
To sum up, in terms of the amount of money, those people can't find the black spot in the contract, so they just black out the terms.
If link can sign a billion yuan contract this summer, there will surely be sunspots who will come out and say that they are not worth so much money.
To put it bluntly, the sunspots are just saying, ”link is not worth so much!”
