Chapter 245 245. The Dynamics of the Alliance (for Subscription)
After Luo Xi came to visit Li Cha, he went to discuss business with Gao Jie. Li Cha had no vacation and could only return to training.
This was also a rare day when Li Cha felt that he didn't want to train.
That's what I said, but I still can't violate my goal, so I still have to persist in training.
After the two world preliminaries, Li Cha's position in the team has truly been consolidated.
It is the recognition given by the players. These recognitions are not only because Li Cha's skills surpass everyone, but more importantly, Li Cha can put down his figure, set an example, and unite his teammates. In the red team, Li Cha's performance is more like a true leader.
Li Nan has already made more preparations. The team's tactics need to be updated and designed, and the team's lineup also needs to be reconfigured. There is only more training content.
The next match of the red team will be the international championship at the end of the month.
For almost a month, it was another period of intensive training, which was boring but also the foundation of the foundation.
Luo Xi left on the third day after seeing Li Cha, and traveled around. It's not a big deal to guard a Li Cha who can't get to meet in the imperial capital all the time. It's better to travel all over the famous mountains and rivers and eat all the delicacies in the world.
As for the contract, Luo Xi has already negotiated with Gao Jie, probably with Li Ning Group represented by Gao Jie.
The endorsement of the whole series, in addition to continuing to perform the remaining 3 years of 750 million surprises, has been extended for 4 years, becoming a 7-year 3500 million cooperation agreement.
As for the endorsement advertisement, the relationship between Li Ning Group and the Basketball Association is good enough to enter the training ground again to find a place to shoot a set of print advertisements. There is no way to shoot the commercials for the time being.
After learning about the travel itinerary that Gao Jie had arranged for Luo Xi, Li Cha didn't raise any opinions either, and walked away, so it was useless to raise opinions.
Formal travel agencies are nothing more than getting in the car to sleep and getting off to take pictures, not a shopping group.
It is impossible for a Chinese descendant who was born and raised in the United States to resist the exquisite craftsmanship and specialty products from all over China. Even if he didn't join the shopping group, Luo Xi would buy a lot of things. If he joined, he might buy them all.
Li Cha's offseason life is solid and beautiful.
On the side of the alliance, there is indeed a dark tide, and the teams are in turmoil one after another.
The main reason is of course James Journey to the West.
After becoming a completely free agent, James finally signed a contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, 4 million in 1.54 years, which is the maximum salary, because James has not been playing for a team, and he signed after becoming a completely free agent halfway through.
James said: "I want to bring the championship back to the Lakers and become the No.1 Lakers after Kobe."
It was decided that Trinity would come out, and the alliance was shaken.
Fans and the media who once laughed at James for not daring to play in the West began to have selective amnesia, and did not express their views on James' decision, but at the same time some people predicted that more All-Star players would switch to the East.
This may also help the balance of power between the East and the West.
It is said that the Lakers also actively recruited Davis for James, but Davis publicly stated that he would never join the Lakers.
The Lakers also renewed the striker Pope's contract for 1 year and 1200 million.
With the addition of Kuzma, Ball, Ingram, and McGee, the Lakers' lineup is basically formed.
On paper, they have the potential and the future, as well as the strength and the top superstars in the league. Not to mention the championship, the Lakers can at least return to the playoffs.
This goal is too easy for James.
Gay continued to sign with the Spurs on a one-year short contract, 1 million a year.
The last All-Star player of the Clippers, Jr. Jordan, went to the Lone Ranger, and worked with Nowitzki to assist the new king Doncic and accompany Doncic to grow up.
The Clippers have completely entered rebuilding.
At this time, the Spurs still reported the news they least wanted to happen.
Leonard was dissatisfied with the Spurs and did not accept the maximum salary extension proposed by the Spurs.
In order to please Leonard, the Spurs even sent out the four-time champion Parker, but he was still abandoned by Leonard.
GDP all left the team, and Leonard left again. The previous championship team has been completely disbanded. Even if Aldridge is still struggling to support the team, the decline of the Spurs will undoubtedly come.
Fortunately, Leonard still has a one-year contract. At this time, the idea of not renewing the contract was exposed. The Spurs still have room to trade, and they can also strive to maximize Leonard's interests. At least they can get back an All-Star.
There is also Cousins of the Pelicans, who also became a completely free agent because he rejected a 2-year 4000 million offer.
His Achilles tendon rupture injury has been slowly recovering, and he also posted a video of his rehabilitation on social platforms, fully demonstrating the recovery effect and his confidence in the future.
But still no team extended an olive branch to Cousins.
With a serious injury like Achilles tendon rupture, it is difficult for players not trained by their own team to gain trust again. Not to mention that Cousins himself has left the Kings, even if it is basketball IQ and Cousins' explosive attributes in the locker room, it is very difficult to tame him. No team thinks they can control Cousins.
Similarly, Anthony did not find a new job.
Unexpectedly, within half a month, Leonard and Cousins found new clubs one after another.
The Spurs and the Raptors reached a deal, Leonard and Danny Green exchanged for the Raptors' DeRozan, Poeltl and the 19th and 20th protection first-round picks.
What happened to the King of the North is embarrassing.
The Raptors played very well in the regular season last season. DeRozan and Lowry both entered the All-Stars. However, after being swept by James in the playoffs, the Raptors fired their gold medal coach and now traded their star star DeRozan.
Although DeRozan has expressed on social platforms many times that he is willing to die with the Raptors, he still became a bargaining chip in exchange for the hottest small forward.
The Raptors can't guarantee that they can keep Leonard, but on the basis of last year, they got a super small forward. The Raptors hope to use Leonard's year to launch an impact towards the championship.
Like last year's Paul George, or even better, the Raptors' dismantling is not unacceptable, and Leonard can lead the already very tenacious Raptors to launch a championship impact.
Ibaka, Valanciunas, Lowry, and Van Vleet have also renewed their contracts, and Siakam can also catch up with his growth. Although many of them are role players, their abilities have already grown in place.
The most important thing is that James is no longer in the East, and the sweep will not appear on the Raptors again.
Then, the Raptors continued to operate, build a championship team, and traded to the Spanish star Marc Gasol.
Gasol already has two championship rings in his hands, and Gasol Jr. also wants to prove himself in front of his brother.
The Spurs are also okay, not a failure. The trade with the Raptors is because the Raptors want to hit the championship and are willing to dismantle their lineup. The other is that the Raptors have healthy All-Star players. After the trade, DeRozan and Aldridge can still form internal and external partners. The Spurs are still very capable.
In addition, the Spurs will not bring new rivals to themselves, and they will resolutely not trade with teams in the East.
In the end, Leonard could only go to Toronto to get familiar with and understand the team in that city.
What happened to Cousins was even more miraculous.
After not receiving invitations from various teams for a long time, Cousins began to cut his salary, and began to exercise very seriously, practicing dunks in his mansion, using such shots to show that he still has a strong offensive ability after injury.
In the end, Cousins received a middle class from the Warriors.
The middle class is only a little more than 500 million. Compared with the 2000 million a year that the Pelicans renewed their contract, I don't know if Cousins has regretted not renewing his contract.
At this time, because the Warriors had a conversation with Cousins against all opinions, Cousins was very satisfied and immediately agreed to the joining conditions.
Even if Cousins is no longer as brave as before, but Cousins, Green, Durant, Thompson and Curry, the paper strength of this lineup has reached its peak. The players in each position are All-Stars and top players in the same position.
The successful completion of the five-star Warriors is not only the active operation of the Warriors, but more importantly, the reverse support of various teams.
There were wailing sounds everywhere, and all the teams were crying for the finale of the league, and there was no suspense about the title of the championship.
In terms of offensive strength, except for Green, these five players are all good scorers; in terms of defensive ability, except for Curry who is not strong enough, they are also very strong players.
What's more, the media said that James' Westward Journey stimulated the Warriors. In order to establish a dynasty, they must fight against James, otherwise the Western Conference Finals will bring a lot of trouble to the team.
Another good person said that a lineup like the Warriors would make James lose the record for the number of consecutive finals, because he would definitely be eliminated if he reached the Western Conference Finals at most.
When Li Cha learned that the five-star warrior was born, he didn't panic.
Now that the Thunder's Big Three have been honed this season, it can be said that their offensive ability is not inferior to any team. Westbrook, who has a reasonable playing tendency, is not so easy to stop.
Although George is a ghost, his explosive scoring ability and defensive ability are outstanding.
Coupled with the two years of precise draft picks and the successful persuasion of Rose to join, the Thunder's bench strength is also much higher than before.
Even if the Warriors are not affected by injuries, it will not be the same as in the original process, when Thompson and Durant were reimbursed for the season successively. Li Cha feels that the Thunder is also qualified to challenge the Warriors and wrestle with them.
As for the Rockets who have no big moves, relying on the magic ball theory and Paul Harden, they are also a strong opponent in the regular season, but in the playoffs, if Harden still cannot adjust himself correctly, Paul has always had hidden injuries, let alone the Thunder.
Li Cha's current focus is still on the national team's training. Regarding Westbrook's concerns, Li Cha only replied with one sentence, "When we all gather together for victory, our energy is definitely more than anyone else."
