Chapter 757 [Decision to live broadcast]

Curry and Miller went to Los Angeles to attend a press conference and welcomed Wang Jun with his boss and general manager.

After seeing the news, Yi Jianlian called Wang Jun in China and was very happy.

He and Curry had long guessed that Wang Jun might join the King, and they were still very excited about the official announcement.

Not only is he able to play in the playoffs or even win the championship because of a good boss. He also has more confidence in playing around Wang Jun, and his position in the team is guaranteed and may receive a larger contract renewal in the future.

Stojakovic saw the news at home and immediately contacted his agent David Berman.

"David, have you seen the news about Wang Jun's comeback?"

"Of course, I saw it. Do you want to go back to the king? Now the king is the only superstar. He has been resting for a year and a half and is in a state of difficulty. I don't recommend you do this."

Berman is not optimistic about the King's prospects, and his agents like to consider issues from a money perspective.

Peja said seriously: "I know it's difficult for the king to win the championship, but with Wang Jun, you can at least fight. The most important thing is that winning the championship and retiring the king means completely differently to me."

He had an unhappy relationship with Weber, dissatisfied with the management's lack of high salary to renew his contract, but he had a deep affection for the Kings. After leaving the King, he never proved himself again.

"The Hornets may not give up on you, you can wait for next season." Berman continued to persuade.

"I am willing to agree with them to buy out and give up part of my salary. Anyway, I am not." Peja was very determined and didn't want to wait for a year.

He is in the last year of his contract, with a salary of $14.25 million, and he is no longer a member of the Hornets' main rotation lineup. His contract terms include 10% of the transaction margin, so he can easily get full salary, and if he buys out of the agreement, he will get half the salary.

Previously, Peja was named "Soft-footed Shrimp", and after wearing this hat, his career has been falling all the way. He has long been short of money, but what he lacks is honor.

Berman was silent for a moment. "You really decided? If the king couldn't win the championship, you would regret it."

"I don't know. I will persist with my old teammates until retirement. I know they will go back. We had a chance to win the championship in 2002... I want to beat the Lakers and win back what belongs to us! Money is not the most important thing!"

The high-paying Peja wants to go back, and of course others will consider it seriously.

Bibi originally planned to jump out of the contract and enter the free market and find a strong team to hold his legs.

He was a little hesitant about the King, but after receiving the call from James, he immediately made up his mind. James called and chatted with him for a few words.

"Go to the King, believe me, you will get the championship ring."

Now, except for the big news that Wang Jun joins the Kings, the most concerned thing about people is whether James will leave the Cavaliers and join other teams. He has not yet stated that he will renew his contract.

Bibi understood what would happen and contacted the agent.

"White Chocolate" Jason Williams was the most neat. He asked his agent to call Jeff Petri and expressed his willingness to join the company for a basic salary. Now he is only strong enough to be a marginal person, and he may not even want a strong team elsewhere.

Berman called Hornets president Ball and proposed the idea of ​​buying out.

The Hornets cannot win the championship, and Peja is no longer here. If he is cut, the Hornets can spare their salary space, sign ups or save money in the summer. Ball did not force his people to keep them. What should people with high salaries and low ability keep him?

If you can find a second-rate star to join forces with Paul, you can stabilize Paul's mood.

The Hornets are in a very bad condition now. The boss is in poor health and wants to sell the team. Paul is not satisfied with the team's lineup. During his injury last season, the Hornets were uncompetitive.

Byron Scott was fired at the beginning of last season, and manager Ball took over his position and led the team to play in a mess. In the summer, the Hornets had to try to find a good coach, otherwise Paul would definitely not want to stay.

After Peja was laid off, the King agreed to sign a two-year five-million contract with him, and the second year's player option.

Bibby and Williams have basically no base salary, and they can't play as a substitute, and they can make a living by relying on experience and shooting to help the team.

Wang Jun also called James Percy, the miserable buddy, who had an expiration of contract with the Bulls and was willing to join the King for a minimum salary and fight for another year.

Miller and the Kings renewed their contract for 10 million for three years. The last year is the team option. As a veteran, he is willing to live for the Kings. 10 million is a price that shows respect. His current state will definitely not last for three years before he retires.

In just one week, the King renewed a contract with a veteran and locked in four new players.

However, basketball experts from major media and fans on the Internet are not optimistic about Wang Jun.

The "anti-kings" have reached the peak of their careers in the past two years, and they mocked Wang Jun for being whimsical on the Internet.

"I've had a two-year rest at home, right? Is he still trying to beat the Lakers by joining a bad team like the Kings? Without good teammates, it's a question whether he can enter the playoffs in the West."

"Betting that Wang Jun can't enter the playoffs, there is little competition in the East, he has a group of good teammates, and he is nothing when he goes to the West."

"A few veterans of the Kings have been fooled. How could a bad team win the championship? Next season will prove that Wang Jun is the most overrated player in history."

"The Indians were cheated by Wang Jun. Curry was bad at defense and could only swipe data. How many points could he get without the ball rights? Wang Jun just wanted to find a place to sign a high salary and play brothers' basketball."

For Martin, this is the worst news. He and Wang Jun overlap, and the number 2 must be substituted. Wang Jun cannot be the one who defends the colander to take the small forward position for him, the person who is fighting badly.

Martin's agent proposed a deal to go to a team that can make the playoffs and not send it to a place with a particularly bad geographical location.

Jeff Petri decided to send Martin away, so he was relieved.

On July 9, something that shocked the entire league was about to happen. LeBron James made a live interview program named "Decision" on espn.

Wang Jun was stunned when he heard this and called and asked, "Are you crazy? Just leave quietly if you want to leave. I am so high-profile that the fans don't hate you enough?"

James complained: "I don't want to, but I don't have the final say in participating in this. It's the result of the negotiation between the program team and my business team. They think it's a win-win situation."

The host Gray's career at ESPN is on the verge of ending, and he needs to save his position through an opportunity or something. After discussing with James' team Ceo Maverick Carter, they discovered this opportunity.

James just played a convincing role, which seemed a bit stupid, and his purpose was to use the show to raise an advertising fee as a donation to promote his charity activities.

That night, about 10 million people watched the live broadcast on the show where James made the "decision".

In most of the first half, many experts were interviewed and did not directly tell where James was. It took half an hour later that James finally gave the answer.

"I'm going to bring my talent to Sacramento and join the Kings."

The host asked: "Why? Why choose the king?"

"Wang and I are good friends. We will be very happy to play together, and we are confident of winning the championship."

The audience was shocked, and then they understood why Wang Jun said that winning the championship was so easy and full of confidence.

Playing brothers’ basketball, his brothers are not the only ones Curry and Yi Jianlian!
