These two clauses are different from those in history because they are different in details.

But in fact, both of these terms exist in history.

Let’s take a look at the differences between the two versions.

Ross Clause.

Historical version: If a rookie player meets one of the following conditions during his rookie contract: twice selected to the All-Stars, twice selected to the league's best first team, MVP, he can directly sign a maximum salary contract with a starting salary of 30%, the contract length and increase

Same as in other cases.

Realistic version: FMVP is added based on the historical version.

Super luxury tax.

Historical version: In the 11/12 and 12/13 seasons, the luxury tax remained unchanged. Since then, the luxury tax has been gradually increased every 5 million.

The specific tax amount is: within 5 million higher than the luxury line: this part is taxed at 1:1.5; higher than the luxury tax within 10 million but more than 5 million: this part is taxed at 1:1.75; within 15 million but higher than 10 million

Above: This part is taxed at 1:2.5; above 15 million: This part is taxed at 1:3.25

Tax; if the team persists and exceeds the tax line four times in the past five years, an additional $1 will be added to the line (that is, the current luxury tax rate becomes 2.5, 2.75, 3.5 and 4.25).

The process is quite complicated, but for example, for example, the Lakers are now overtaxed by 19.9 million. Originally, they only had to pay 19.9 million, but under the new super luxury tax, this number will become 44.68 million!

Reality version: The luxury tax has been implemented since the 2011-2012 season.

These changes were obviously brought about by Lin Ying.

It goes without saying much about the changes in Roth provisions.

The super luxury tax is due to the New York Big Three winning the championship.

There is a very critical point here, Wells Chandler's contract is about to expire.

Originally, the Knicks had no salary space for reinforcements, but Chandler's new contract extension is their new bargaining chip.

For example, if Chandler renewed his contract with an annual salary of 8 million, then his and Turiaf's contracts together would be a 12 million contract.

According to the transaction limit, they may be able to trade a player with a contract of 15 million!

That's the maximum salary for young players!

The Big Four in New York are not a dream!

If it is postponed for another two years, then the Knicks will directly guarantee the dynasty!

Originally, if the Knicks didn't win the championship, the bosses would still be able to sit still, but now if they can win the championship and they can strengthen themselves like this, they should stop playing and break up!

So you can even say that this clause is aimed at the Knicks.

There was no way, who told the Knicks to win the championship, and the boss became Ballmer.

Even Ballmer wouldn't dare play around with this kind of luxury tax.

No one’s money comes from strong winds.

It is still unknown what the Knicks will choose in the new season, but the release of these two clauses has put a lot of pressure on other super teams.

The Lakers were the first to feel it.

Just like what I said before, 20 million turned into 40 million, and the corners of Old Bass' mouth twitched.

But there was no other way. He strongly opposed it during the negotiations, but in the end he could only compromise.

But the people who are under the greatest pressure are actually not the Lakers and Buss, but... the Suns and Sarver.

Or to be more precise, Cole!

Last season, he worked hard to facilitate the trade of Butler for Oden. As a result, this has now increased the Suns' summer salary table by 7 million.

According to original estimates, if the Suns give up players they can give up this summer, the luxury tax will be around 17 million.

It’s similar to the Lakers, but if you can win the championship, you’ll earn more than that, you’ll still earn it.

But now, with the Rose clause, Lin Ying's starting salary for contract renewal will directly rise from about 15 million to about 18 million, and this number will also become 20 million! More than the Lakers!

Then the Suns need to pay nearly 50 million in luxury tax, which is almost as much as the salary cap!

There is absolutely no way Savor would do that.

Phoenix is ​​not New York or Los Angeles, and he is not Ballmer or Prokhorov.

This feels very much like the salary explosion in 2K.

The only difference is that it was not played well, this is purely a fire at the city gate that affects the fish in the pond.

And what really makes Cole anxious is the side effects of losing the title defense last season.

For example, trading Frye and Richardson would have greatly alleviated this salary pressure, but now they cannot be traded at all!

Don't talk about trading Yao Ming at this time, it's hard to keep the current lineup!

So now there are really only two options left.

Disband the current lineup and start rebuilding, or...let Lin Ying go.

The former is also very difficult, because it is impossible for Nash to trade, and the only way to do it is Stoudemire, but there is almost no trading market for Stoudemire now.

The latter is very simple, but who would be willing to let go of an FMVP, the new core leader?

This is very much like throwing someone into a secret room, and then the secret room starts to shrink, and someone will eventually be squeezed to death.

Luxury villa in downtown Phoenix.

Savor and Cole sat opposite each other.

His face was gloomy and terrifying.

Although he also knew that this was not Cole's fault, but a problem with the league's rules, this was the problem and it had to be solved.

"If it's a normal maximum salary extension, I have the ability to control the luxury tax within 20 million, but if I want to use the Rose-Lin shadow clause, it will basically be more than 30 million."

Cole finally said after careful consideration.

If you study the luxury tax carefully, you will find that the super luxury tax is 10 million, and you need to pay 16.25 million, which is not too much.

But if it reaches 15 million, this number will skyrocket to 28.75 million.

2.5 times that of 10 to 15 million, which is very exaggerated.

So don’t underestimate whether Lin Ying’s starting salary is the extra 3 million from the Rose-Lin Ying clause.

That's 3 million, but the Suns actually had to pay more than 10 million more for it.

This is why Cole said this. Trading players with trade value such as Allen or Oden can force the luxury tax down.

But it’s actually impossible to do more.

In history, why did the Warriors just let Arenas go for nothing? Don't they know how to trade players to clear space?

It can't be done!

Sometimes a penny can beat a hero!

Sarver was not happy, but basically agreed with Cole's words.

Lin Ying has now established an influence in Phoenix, and his style of play is also something he likes very much.

But to be honest, in his eyes, Lin Ying is still not as good as Rose or Durant.

Currently, only those two people are eligible to sign this Roth clause.

"You go ahead and do it."

After chatting, Savor drove Cole away early.

Then he picked up the cigar on the table, took a puff, and stared out the window for a while.

In fact, even if Lin Ying is retained, the Suns will still have to make sacrifices, and the lineup's paper strength will actually decline.

"Those damn niggers!"

When he said this, many people appeared in his mind.

There is the players union represented by Fisher, and James and others who went to New York to form the Big Three.

In the past, he felt that black people could even call black people nigger on the field, but white people could not, which made him feel very unhappy.

Now, these two words have been integrated into his life unconsciously.

…

The Suns' predicament is just the tip of the iceberg. Now the entire league and the free market are in a state of frying.

Because although the regular season is not affected, the preseason is gone and the free market is also compressed.

And because players were prohibited from contacting the team before, you have to make a decision in a short time.

And now the big fish in the free market are Durant, Yao Ming, Lin Ying, Anthony, Gasol, Tyson Chandler, DeAndre Jordan, Kirilenko, and Duncan who can opt out of the player option.

Inside.

But on the first day of the free market, the first big fish was settled.
To be continued...
