As the time got closer and closer to July 1, after the teams were quiet for a few days, they started to move again.

This year's free agency market is lively and not lost. In the past, Nash, Iverson, Roy, Randolph, Odom ... all entered the free agency market.

In addition, Glen Davis, Ilya Sova, Jalette Jack and other powerful factions will also set off a storm of competition in the free market.

On this day, Tang Tian asked Jones to send a signal to the management of each team.

Sale! Clearance!

Anyone except James wants!

In an instant, the entire league was frying.

The Cavaliers just won 64 wins last year, is this about to clear?

Is this dementia?

For a time, the phone in Tang Tian's office never stopped.

No one will miss the great opportunity of clearance and robbery!

However, after really hitting them, they realized that Tang Tian was not really a big sale, but just wanted to lead them to call.

This is the purpose of Tang Tian. Rather than calling one by one to greet these general managers one by one, it is better to have a deal negotiation with the other party, so that at least the personality of the other party will be less likely to become a partner in the future. .

For example, now, he is very engaged with the Suns new general manager Steve Kerr.

"Don, I won't rob you, I know what you want to do, and I have a good proposal here." Cole said with a smile on the phone.

"Steve, you have been my assistant coach. If you want to rob me, I will show you some colors." Tang Tian continued.

"I know you want to change the status quo, and you want to make a big difference next year's offseason, to form a big three, big four or something."

"Okay, click here." Tang Tian interrupted Cole's words, and his former assistant coach was still as clever as ever.

"Speak, what benefits do I get if I accept O'Neill's contract?"

"Shaq is still at its peak, I want you a second-round pick."

"No, you gave me a second-round pick."

Both of them are not vegetarians. Although they used to work together, they are really negotiating against each other.

"Don, you are robbing like this, so, I will help you buy out Ben Wallace, and you will give me Mo Williams."

"Wipe, you ruthless ..."

Both of them want to take advantage of their opponents, and the negotiations have lasted a long time.

Fortunately, the two were old acquaintances and did not quit in a hurry. Finally, they talked for more than half an hour, and the two sides finally reached a plan.

This is also Tang Tian's first transaction after becoming the Cavaliers management.

The Cavaliers sent Ben Wallace, Pavlovich and part of the cash to get the "Big Shark" O'Neal from the Suns.

This is very similar to the previous Cavaliers transaction. The only difference is that there is no ball selection involved in the transaction between the two parties.

Although O'Neill was out of place with the Suns last season, he still contributed 17.8 points, 8.4 rebounds and 1.4 blocks. His strength is still there.

But as this ratio shows, this is a win-win deal.

After the Suns traded for O’Neal, the record has repeatedly declined. Last season, they missed the playoffs. To revive, the team must deal with O’Neal. Although the Wallace obtained by the transaction is also an annual salary of 14 million, only one year, they Consider making a buyout.

As for the Cavaliers, Tang Tian's goal is to squander. He wants to get as many expiring contracts as possible. O'Neal has a contract of 21 million next season, and he will be able to free up huge salary space.

Hanging up the phone, he picked up the team roster, crossed out Ben Wallace and Pavlovich, and added O'Neal.

Point guards: Mo Williams (2-year contract, next year's annual salary of $ 8 million), Daniel Gibson (4-year contract, next season's annual salary of 4 million, long contract)

Shooting guard: No one.

Small forward: James (1-year contract, annual salary 15.78 million)

Power forwards: Valejo (1-year contract, next year's salary of 6.3 million), JJ Hickson (rookie second year), Ryan Anderson (rookie second year)

Centers: Ilgauskas (1-year contract, 11.54 million), O'Neill (1-year contract, next season salary 21 million)

The total contract value is 69.72 million, which is more than luxury.

Although all the contracts are expired, he still pays extravagance and sharpness in a bad year, not to mention Gilbert, he can't bear it himself.

He put down the list and then called Dante to the office, who had been promoted by Tang Tian to the head of the operations department.

"How are those free agents negotiating?"

"Michael Finley is almost talking, but he is still talking about buying out with the Spurs, Jason Williams, he always wanted to come back, we gave a one-year veteran base salary, he directly agreed, Rashi De Wallace was originally talking to the Celtics. With a two-year 12 million contract, I directly signed a two-year 20 million team option contract. He was also close to agreeing, but Channing Frye ... "

Tang Tian listened carefully, and what Dante said was all he asked to sign. From Dante's report, these conditions were similar to what he expected.

"What happened to Frye?" Tang Tian frowned, Frye was part of his future plan.

"The Suns are also negotiating with him."

"When you say that I think about it, Steve." Tang Tian remembered his previous life. The Suns and Frye signed a two-year contract with 4 million players.

"Taking the annual salary of the contract directly to 4 million, I need him to stay in Cleveland for the next three years." He thought about it and said directly.

Frye is a big man who can shoot a three-pointer, and can be four to five, is one of the most suitable for James's inside, this must be won.

"Understood." Although he knew that Tang Tian was offering a price much higher than the market value, but with Tang Tian for a week, he also understood his boss's character.

Dante left, Tang Tian continued to pick up the phone, at this point, he made an appointment with the Clippers for negotiations.

Like Tang Tian ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ The Clippers' current head coach Mike Dunleavy is also the general manager.

"Mo Williams changed for the first round of next year's draft pick, why not?" Tang Tian came straight to the point.

"Don't do that? Williams plus Ilgauskas?"

"Williams averaged 18 points per game last season and only had 8 million contracts. Ilgauskas averaged 12 + 8 per game. Don't you want him to fight Yao Ming? He has only one year left on his contract and you are not losing money."

"Not yet? Then I will add a second round next year? Blake Griffin is a genius power forward that is rare in ten years. Change to your inside Ilgauskas Griffin, outside. · Williams plus Eric Gordon, sign a small forward, this season will directly impact the playoffs, you do n’t want to waste Griffin ’s talent? "

"And after entering the playoffs, your first round will be worthless. Let me tell you clearly. The Cavaliers will be rebuilt next season. Do you want to do it?"

"Don't you? Tell me early!"
