Chapter 218 217: Can that man still help the team? How much is Shea worth?

Barkley joined the Phoenix Suns. The transfer market had just opened and was directly detonated by the news.

The Suns' signing of Barkley also transformed them from a bad team to the most competitive team in the Western Conference.

The Lakers seemed to have been kicked out of the ranks of championship contending teams by the media.

Indeed, the transfer market has just begun, and the Lakers have lost their two main players, Fliggy and Sprewell.

It is definitely impossible to say that the Lakers' strength will not be affected.

Although the Lakers selected Finley, who became famous at a young age, Finley is a low-ranked rookie after all, and no one thinks he can play a big role in the new season.

In fact, no one knows whether Shai will stay with the Lakers next season!

The news that the Knicks wanted to buy Shea for 20 million made a lot of noise, but the Lakers and Shea did not immediately announce the contract extension.

This makes Los Angeles fans fearful. Seeing that the factory is about to collapse, it seems that it is not impossible for Shay to run away with a bucket!

Old Buss was even more panicked than the Lakers fans, and even started asking Shay to watch it together.

"Swimsuit contest!?" Shay picked up the phone and pouted speechlessly.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered what the domestic media had said about Old Bass last summer: "A man who has escaped from vulgar taste."

"Oh, even though we lost last season, don't put too much pressure on yourself. As a person, the most important thing is to be happy!

Let's relax and unwind!

I bought a VIP ticket, do you know what this means?

This means that we can go backstage and communicate with the models in depth about the design and inspiration of swimsuits!

I think you will like this kind of artistic exchange!"

Shay is also convinced, haha, decadent capitalism!

"Well Jerry, I've been quite busy lately. You know, my new shoes are about to be released. Even the swimsuit contest or something like that doesn't suit my temperament.

I appreciate your kindness, let's find other fun when we have time."

Shay was simply embarrassed to be associated with an old pervert like old Bass, so he politely declined.

But the speaker was unintentional and the listener was interested. Old Bass panicked at that time.

It's over.

Shay he rejected me!

Does he really want to leave?

Do you think I paid too little?

Am I a spare tire!?

So in the next few days, Shay and Bass would always exchange text messages like this:

Buzz: What are you doing?

Shay: Get ready to take a shower.

Buzz: Have you washed it?

Shay: Yeah, I'm ready to go to bed. Good night.

Dr. Bass is a suave person. He has never been a licker in his life. He has always been loved by others, in a physical sense.

As a result, one day he actually licked a grown man!

Life is really unpredictable, the big intestine wraps up the small intestine.

Shea didn't completely ignore Bass. He also sent Falk to negotiate a contract with the old Bass.

Why haven't Shea signed a contract with the Lakers? It's not because of anything else, just because once Shea signs, it will definitely be a cap extension. Once he signs, the Lakers' salary space will be locked instantly.

Nothing can be done in free agency.

Therefore, the Lakers have to wait until the Lakers complete reinforcements before signing Shea, so that the Lakers can maximize their benefits.

Therefore, both sides have been dragging it out until now.

This was originally agreed upon between the two parties, but as rumors about Shay's transfer have increased recently, Old Buss must have been very panicked.

Although Shay himself never expressed his intention to leave, before the contract was clearly written in black and white, Bass could not sleep all night long.

I was afraid that when I woke up the next day, Shay would suddenly be kidnapped by another team.

Shay also knew that Old Bass invited him to watch the swimsuit contest and sent text messages every day to kneel and lick him, just because he was afraid that he would run away.

No, Shay immediately sent Falk to contact Old Bass, with the purpose of giving Old Bass reassurance.

Let the team strengthen with peace of mind, and you will definitely be in place.

Falke also got straight to the point:

"Dr. Bass, you don't have to worry, even though Barkley signed for 18 million, even though the Knicks paid 20 million for him.

But my employer is an honest person, a noble person, and a person who has escaped from vulgar taste!

Moreover, we also believe in the sincerity of you and your team.

What Shea means is that the team needs to be strengthened and don’t have any messy ideas.”

Falk felt that what he said was clear enough. Subjectively, Shay didn't want to go elsewhere, so the Lakers could rest assured and strengthen.

As a result, as soon as Falk walked away, Bass immediately broke out in cold sweat!

In his opinion, Falk mentioned Barkley's signing amount and the Knicks' asking price, which is a hint to the Lakers. It is best not to offer less than 20 million!

The Knicks have already paid 20 million, but if the Lakers pay less than 20 million, it’s unjustifiable.

And Falke reminded Buss to rest assured and strengthen, but in Bus's view, this seemed to be a hint to the Lakers that they had better recruit more troops, otherwise they will not be able to serve!

The old Bath people are all stupid!

The team must act quickly!

However, there are really no big fish in this year's free agent market.

After much searching, apart from Finley, the team only found Ricky Pierce, a two-time Sixth Man of the Year winner who had performed brilliantly with the Bucks and SuperSonics.

Although Ricky Pierce is 36 years old, it is easy for players with convulsions like them to play for a long time.

Because they are inherently unstable, as long as they can still play occasionally, some teams will sign them.

The Lakers rushed to sign the ventilator before the Pacers and Raptors.

The Lakers' operation was ridiculed by many media as a "death struggle before collapse."

"After so many days, the only thing they gained was a 36-year-old veteran that no one wanted.

The Lakers never dreamed that the collapse would be so complete."

"With a rookie and a veteran, the Lakers are not at all like what a championship team should do."

And Bill Simmons, the columnist who suffered humiliation last summer for kneeling to Shay, came out again:

"Shay's fans don't have to worry about the Lakers' weak lineup, because Shay will definitely leave the Lakers.

Shay knows very well that without good teammates, he will accomplish nothing.

You always say that he is very successful, winning two MVPs and two championships at a young age.

But you often overlook that his team also has a more luxurious lineup than other teams.

I'm not saying that Shay is not strong, I just think that his strength does not match his honor.

He is like a top-notch beauty with a 90-point figure but a 60-point face.

He has 60 points of strength and deserves 90 points of honor!

Even if you take any All-Star and throw it into the Lakers' lineup of the past two years, they can still win the championship.

Shay knows this very well, so he will definitely leave, he will definitely run away.

He is not the kind of person who can lead the team out of trouble by relying on his personal abilities!

Even if his salary is reduced, he will go to a stronger team!

Because once he leaves a strong team, he will expose the fact that he is not strong enough at all!"

Bill Simmons has been obediently keeping his mouth shut for a whole year and has not criticized Shay. Now that he sees that Shay is going to collapse, he must rush out and pretend to be an expert and add insult to injury like crazy.

The logo man is also racking his brains, not knowing how to strengthen the lineup.

That's when Shea called West and told him, "That guy, maybe we can give it a try!"

With Shay's reminder, Logo suddenly remembered a guy who had disappeared for more than a year and was supposed to be a hot commodity this summer but was left out in the cold due to an accident.

Although Logo was unsure about him, he

There are no big fish in the free agent market right now, so you can only treat a dead horse as a live doctor!

Patrick Ewing, once one of the top four centers, was once the absolute king of the city of New York.
