Gobert's contract extension has been more troublesome than expected.
Qin Yang also participated in it. Cuban referred to Qin Yang's opinion when signing a new agreement with Gobert.Because the Mavericks have no other options, the Clippers are about to fall apart, and after Jordan's contract expires, he wants to join the Mavericks.
Compared with inside defense, Jordan Jr. is not much worse than Gobert.
At least one of the best interior defensive players in the league.
But Jordan only needs a salary of 800 million a year. This price is very worthwhile. At least he can sign for many years to ensure the Mavericks' internal strength.
But Gobert's price was inflated.
An insider who can't shoot, an insider who can't attack, with a salary of more than 2000 million, and even this is just the starting price. After LaMarcus Aldridge left, the Blazers offered a big contract of 700 million a year for five years.
This contract...is horrible.
This will be a five-year $1.35 million contract. A blue-collar defensive insider who can't shoot will get such a big contract.
From this point of view, McConley's contract is not very rubbish.
Especially after skyrocketing salaries, Conley's big contract was hailed as prescient.
The Mavericks really can't afford this contract.
I dare not give it, and I don't want to give it.
Although the Blazers offered a big contract, Gobert is still negotiating with the Mavericks. At this time, the player's personal wishes are very important. There are many players in the NBA who give up large salaries for the championship.
In the end, Gobert and the Mavericks signed a three-year, 400 million contract.
Calculated to be close to 500 yuan per year, this salary is not low.
The Mavericks signed Gobert, which can be regarded as a solid inside defense.
But after this contract, the media generally expressed their disapproval.
TNT news:
"This may not be a bad signing, but it also indicates that the future of the Mavericks is full of uncertainties, because Nurkic has also played very well this year. Maybe in the next few years, he will also need the same contract. At that time, how to choose is a difficult problem for the Dallas people!"
After Gobert finalized the contract, Qin Yang's contract was also finalized quickly.
The contract is a three-year maximum salary of 1.1 million US dollars.
The annual salary is close to 4000 million US dollars, which is not a small number. In the league, there has never been such a high salary in a single year.
From next season, Qin Yang will become the highest paid person in the league.
After Qin Yang finalized the contract, Durant also chose to implement the player option for next season, which means that the Mavericks' theme lineup remains complete and is still a unique strong team in the league.
But ... cap space is scarce.
Gobert is more than 2000 million, Durant is 500 million, and Qin Yang is 900 million. The total is more than 8000 million. The Mavericks have very little salary space left.
The league's salary cap this year is $400 million, which means the Mavs only have $1000 million in signing space left.
Next, if it does not exceed 100 million US dollars, you will have to pay 1000 million US dollars in luxury tax.
Fortunately, the Mavericks are not without good news.
Al Jefferson announced his retirement from the NBA. At the press conference held for him by the Mavericks, Al Jefferson burst into tears:
"Dallas is a good place. I get the respect I deserve here. I have done everything. I love the Mavericks. I am grateful to Bruce for helping me. I am grateful to the team owner and coaching staff for their support. I am very happy to choose to retire here. Next, I will go to China to see where is Bruce's hometown. I am very interested in where."
Al Jefferson chose to retire directly when his contract expired, and he didn't even choose to accept the Mavericks' veteran contract.
Next, the Mavericks will choose China's CBA, which is a very good place.
Also leaving the Mavericks is PJ Tucker.
Tucker was traded, and he was very happy to win the championship, but PJ Tucker wants more salary and see you when he leaves the factory, but this is impossible with the Mavericks.
In the same position, there are Durant, James Ennis, Corey Brewer, Brogdon, Ronald Hood and others. Tucker's attitude is very correct and his strength is very good, but this does not become the reason why he wants a big contract and the main position.
The Mavericks can't afford it, so they get together and break up.
Morey of the Rockets gave a three-year contract of 800 million yuan, which is not a small contract.More than 200 million a year, which is a top-notch blue-collar contract.
There is no way.
In the playoffs, PJ Tucker performed very well. Even against James, he played very hard. He was very strong on the defensive end, rebounded very well, and made a sneaky three-pointer on the offensive end.
Such a role player fits Morey's algorithm.
This manager who studies statistics likes this kind of player very much.
The Mavericks can't afford such a big contract.
More importantly, the Mavericks have a lot of swingers at the forward position, and it doesn't matter if they abandon PJ Tucker.
Next to go was Livingston.
Livingston performed very well, but now he needs more playing time and a higher salary, but this requirement cannot be met by the Mavericks. After the contract expires, Livingston also chose to leave. The Warriors have sufficient salary space and offered a salary of 700 million for three years.
This salary is also exaggerated a bit.
Championships add value.
The reporter of Fox Sports News said this when referring to the transfer of the two: "Players who have stayed in the Dallas Mavericks for a period of time will have their salaries skyrocketed. For example, Livingston and PJ Tucker, their salaries have increased by four times and ten times respectively. It is an extremely terrifying increase."
Of course, this is just an exaggerated statement by the media.
The Mavericks' bench strength is too strong. Livingston and PJ Tucker have played very well in a limited time. In this case, poaching the two can increase the strength of your own team and weaken the strength of the Mavericks. Therefore, other teams are very tacit.
The Mavericks wanted to trade players or draft picks from other teams, but no team responded.
Sniping the Mavericks has become the consensus of other teams.
The Mavericks couldn't pick any good rookies, so they could only sell their first-round picks in exchange for next year's picks.
The Mavericks are facing salary issues, and Dirk voluntarily jumped out of the contract with an annual salary of tens of millions.Choosing to cut salary, this is another salary cut for Dirk.
Last season, Dirk didn't play much time, but his efficiency was not low.On the offensive end, he still blasts more than [-]% of the league's insiders.
If you really only consider salary, it is estimated that many players are willing to give more than [-] million contracts, but Dirk chooses the veteran's basic salary to renew his contract with the Mavericks.
I have to say that Cuban and Dirk are true love!
Sorry, I had something to do yesterday and forgot to update it!
