Chapter 843 The Birth of the Son of the Beast
Beast remembers past life Carter signed a multi-year contract with ESPN after announcing his retirement in 2020 as an NBA and college basketball analyst.
Carter announced his retirement, and Korver has not yet decided whether to retire.
Obviously Korver is also in very good condition. Although he cannot enter the regular rotation in a championship team like the Nets, as a bottom line veteran, he is still qualified.
The Beast has invited him and hopes that he will stay on the team.
Korver hasn't fully figured it out, but he told The Beast that he is very happy that the team wants to continue to cooperate with him, and he will reply as soon as possible whether to accept the team's signing invitation.
The beast is not stupid. Even if Korver doesn't play for a minute, he only needs to provide shooting guidance to his teammates, which is enough to earn back his salary.
Although a historical 3-point shooter like Korver is not a professional shooting trainer, he has practical experience and technical details of running shots that many trainers do not have.
He can completely complement the team's shooting trainer, and can better help all Nets players improve their 3-point shooting.
In today's era, in today's NBA league, 3 points is the lifeline of a team's offense. If you can't score 3 points, offense will be very troublesome in many cases. 3-pointers are already more important than blocks and steals, and 3-point shooters are already an important strategic resource that every NBA team is competing for.
Therefore, it is necessary for Korver to stay with a basic salary, and the beast hopes that he can stay.
Wood's contract expires after the end of this season. He didn't get many opportunities in the Nets last season, so the statistics are very average.
No team offered him a high-priced contract, but he seemed to be less motivated to renew his contract with the Nets.Obviously, he needs playing time and possession of the ball, and in the Nets, none of these can satisfy him.
The Beast certainly knows Wood's abilities, especially on the offensive end.But he can't stand him being a colander on the defensive end.In his view, the basic game of the inside is defense. If your defense is too eye-catching, unless your offense can be like Nuo Tianwang, it will be difficult to make up for the points you lost on the defensive end.
The Nets don't have enough salary space and enough ball rights to Wood, so a peaceful breakup is the best result.On a team with the Beast, their need for the kind of ball-heavy offensive and weak interiors is low.What they need more is an engineer-type inside line, a defensive pie-eating type, or a space projection type, but the defense should not be too stretched.
As for the entire NBA, those functional insiders can be signed with a basic salary, which is the most cost-effective for a team like the Nets that has no salary space.
For the Nets now, the issue of LeVille's contract extension is bothering them.LeVille, a player, has certain abilities, but he has not reached the All-Star level.He can hold the ball, shoot, break through, dominate the ball, and is a very comprehensive backcourt scorer.
At what price can he renew his contract?Obviously, 1000 million won't win him.More than 1500 million will definitely be expensive, and the Nets' luxury tax will explode.
Boss Cai said before that he would not let the management save money because they are afraid of paying the luxury tax, and let the management let go of their hands and feet.This is actually for the Beast, because the decision-making power of the Nets management is in the hands of the Beast.
But Beast can't ignore the issue of luxury tax. The explosion of luxury tax has great side effects, and no one's money is blown by strong winds. If they can't make ends meet, even if they win the championship, they won't last long.
The money that should be spent must be spent, but the money must be spent wisely!
Obviously, if LeVille can't accept the team's offer of around 1000 million, then he must either let him go, or sign first and then change.
This is beneficial to the Nets, which can obtain other immediate combat power supplements without losing the team's immediate combat power.
The time has entered April...
On November 11, Korver informed the Beast that he agreed to continue to cooperate with the team!
Beast is very happy with this news. Korver is not only a self-disciplined and professional veteran, but also a historical marksman. Such a player has a positive effect in the team.
The draft will be held on November 11. The Nets only have one second-round pick. Their first-round pick was traded to the Pelicans in the deal about Holiday.
Beast looked at this year's list of draft players. This year is a very small year. Except for Edwards who is about to become the No. [-] pick in the draft, it seems that none of the other players has a chance to become a superstar.The lottery favorites are so low, do you expect to find treasures in the second round?
He already had a secret plan...
Because Korver has decided to renew his contract, once the Nets choose to implement the team options of Allen and Diallo, the team already has 12 guaranteed contracts.
If LeVille's contract is renewed, then there will be 13, only two places, and two places are two-way contracts.
Two-way contracts are useless because they can't play in the playoffs.
The Beast intends to go to the free agent market to find another veteran, or just keep the spot and wait for the mid-term pick-up.
In addition, once LeVille completes signing first and then changing, if one is exchanged for two, then he can't use up the quota so quickly now, and must retain a certain degree of flexibility in the lineup.
Time passed quickly, and on November 11, Concubine Han suddenly felt a pain in her stomach, and the beast immediately sent her to the hospital.
But she did not give birth for a long time, until the 18th, she finally gave birth, and gave birth to a child through a caesarean section.
This is a boy, weighing 6 catties and 8 taels, the number is auspicious.
That day is the day of the NBA 2020 draft.
Beast, of course, did not go to the draft site, he has been in the hospital.
In the end, the Nets did not use any second-round picks to select any players. They sold the second-round picks for $230 million!
From Beast's point of view, instead of not being able to select the right player and considering spending a spot to sign with him, it is better to trade the second-round pick.
For the Nets, a veteran with rich experience is much more useful than a second-round pick with no talent or immediate combat power.They are a championship team, not a rebuilding team.
The son of the beast was born, and congratulatory messages were sent from all over the world!
Beast is dedicated to accompanying his wife Concubine Han in the hospital. He is very curious about the newborn little guy, full of hope for the future!
Concubine Han is a little weak because of the caesarean section.Her mother and the MVP of the confinement class hired by the Beast with a lot of money are waiting by her side.
Money is really a good thing. This MVP confinement wife is very experienced. The son of the beast is in her hands. She is very obedient. She laughs when she wants him to laugh, sleeps when she wants him to sleep, and her skills are so explosive!
Concubine Han's mother was also very satisfied with Yuesao, but when she inquired about the price, she was surprised and speechless...
