Chapter 1022 (1/2)

When link returned from Canada, it was nearly July.

He didn't know if Nash would accept the Grizzlies' invitation. Until link and PELA left, Nash didn't give a clear answer.

But Nash is still hesitating, which means Grizzlies are half the way.

At least, it proved that he was really thinking about it.

Is Nash a good teacher? Can his arrival really help Grizzlies?

For link, this is an unquestionable question. That's because Nash has played that role long ago and has been successful.

Nash has actually been a mentor since 2009.

Like Billups in Denver, he taught and guided the young people around him.

He taught Dudley how to eat and keep fit, and taught dragridge some tips like a master. No matter on and off the court, he is also a teacher and a friend, teaching his experience to his teammates without reservation.

Nash never touched sugar, processed food or fried food, and he and Grant Hill once advised each other not to eat chocolate.

Hill admitted in an interview, ”I still break the rules occasionally and get caught by him, and Steve, I really haven't seen him break the rules.”

When a team has such a delicate leader from diet to training, his positive effect is immeasurable.

As a result, Nash made the Suns' young bench the strongest ever!

So in 2009-10 season, the Suns had once been expected to dominate the west, and after the all star game, they played 23-6. In the end, they made it to the playoffs as third in the West. And compared with the first Laker in the Western Conference at that time, it was only three games short!

In the playoffs, the Suns made it to the Western Conference finals and played game 6 with the then champion Lakers in a dignified manner.

That's the impact Steve Nash has on a team as a great mentor.

If such a positive impact is grafted onto the grizzly bear... Link believes that this grizzly bear can burst out more powerful than the sun at that time!

Back in Memphis, link continued to prepare for his wedding. At the same time, the annual summer transfer market has opened again.

In this summer's transfer market, there are not many big name free players.

Compared with the two years before James' free transfer to Cavaliers and Durant joining the warriors as a free agent, the influence of players who entered the free agent market, such as hofford, Rondo, rose and Howard, is not so great.

This summer, it's not going to get in the way of madness.

Although there are no heavy players, this year, the level of money squandering of each team has risen to a new level again!

With the sharp rise of salary cap, the amount of NBA free agent signing this year has exceeded the previous recognition.

A veteran like Pau Gasol can earn $31.5 million for two years!

The Mavericks took Harrison Barnes from the warriors on a four-year contract worth 94 million.

Nicholas Batum, who scored less than 10 points per game last season, signed a super contract with the Hornets for 5 years with a total of 120 million yuan!

120 million in five years. In the past, only the top stars in the league could enjoy the price. But now, it's on a player who's not even an All-Star.

Of course, these are not the most exaggerated.

A few days after the opening of the free agent market, more and more astonishing transfers have emerged.

Ryan Anderson is a big man who is almost worthless except for three-point goal. The Rockets have offered him 80 million yuan in four years, with an average annual salary of 20 million yuan!

What is the concept of 20 million annual salary? Also known for its projection, Dirk Nowitzki, a top star, earned less than 20 million a year at his peak!

Of course, some would say Anderson averaged 17 points in the pelican game last season. Even if he is brush, this data is not bad.
