The NBA office has its eye on Durant, and it has its eyes on the Warriors.
Recently, NBA President Xiao Hua made a public statement in response to Durant's transfer proposal:
"I wouldn't be bothered if it's a free-market star transfer or a trade that causes a star to move. These ways will give players and teams the opportunity to rebuild, and they will change their environment for each other, and may be good for both sides. ”
"But in my opinion, when the contract is still very long, it is another matter for the player to voluntarily apply for a trade. That's something players and teams should be talking about behind closed doors, and we hate seeing players apply for trades, and we resent that. ”
The more important point is that there have been too many similar incidents in recent years:
Adu designated the next home Sun, Thick Brow designated the next Home Lakers, Harden and Simmons designated the Next Home Nets.
The players seem to have reached a tacit understanding - first sign the big contract and then say, as for the discomfort of staying later, it will force the palace to change teams.
This kind of behavior will have a big impact on the team.
Taking the Nets as an example, Boss Cai painted a lot of money to raise several grandfathers,
Adu wanted Ade, Griffin, and the team got it; Owen wanted to repair the immortals, wanted not to vaccinate, the team endured; It was hard to help you heal your injuries and think of a good championship, but the big three scattered and they all made a fuss about leaving the team.
One is going to the Lakers, one is going to the Sun. Where does Boss Cai's grievance go?
This is not speaking for capital, just looking at the problem from the middle, the players are inevitably too inching forward.
Xiao Hua mentioned in the conversation: "Players ask for transfers in advance, which is something that players and teams should talk about behind closed doors. ”
This sentence really comes to the point, the team and the players privately discuss the transaction, the team then go to multiple parties to inquire, these are relatively correct processes.
And most stars choose to blatantly force the house to transfer, what will happen to this?
Other teams get the news that the stars and the parent team have fallen out, and they can frantically reduce the price of the trading chips, and the final loss is also borne by the parent team.
Therefore, Xiao Hua, as a representative of the capital side, grasps Durant's typical example is actually expected.
In Xiao Hua's words: This matter will be raised in the labor negotiations, and strict norms for this matter will be formulated for this matter.
Not only Durant, but also the Warriors have become the target of everyone.
According to Stein, the NBA held a league board meeting in Las Vegas today, and one of the important issues is that the Warriors spent too much last season on $346 million, which is unfair to other teams. (Last season' Warriors player salaries were $176 million, luxury taxes were $170 million, and total spending was $346 million.
In fact, this topic skill Jun personally feels a bit nonsensical.
The main reason for the Warriors' high spending is that the boss is willing to pay taxes and willing to pay for the team.
At this point, opportunities are equal across all teams in the league.
Just because the Warriors won the championship, you can't have a meeting to punish people, right? Saying that the sky is broken, there is no such reason.
At present, the results of the two meetings have not appeared, and when the results are discussed and completed, perhaps this alliance will change again.
