Chapter 862: The slap in the face came too quickly

"73 wins over Warriors plus Durant! You don't have to play in the regular season next year, just send the championship trophy! ”

"Damn, I'm really going to the Warriors, and this alliance doesn't stop it?! Although the Pelicans are very strong, this Warrior Four, play hair! ”

"Fortunately, it's not the rocket that goes to the rocket, it's the big four who go to the rocket, and that's the real direct champion!"

"Only a fool went to the Rockets, the three of the Rockets all played with the ball, did he go to be the fourth?"

"That's right, although the Warriors have an excellent record, they have a team system, and Durant can be the boss directly!"

"Isn't it the second one the most? How much you look down on Curry! ”

"Du Lao Er? Σ(°△°|||) ︴”

"You're so dark, but how will other teams play next year, the Warriors are strong enough, plus the league's second small forward......"

"Durant said that he had the idea of joining the Warriors last year, how uncomfortable it should be for Westbrook!"

"I did everything to you, but you wanted to green me?"

"It's cheating! Scumbag Durant! ”

"Silent mourning for the turtle and turtle, silent mourning for the Thunder team, the Thunder Four are finished today!"

"Everything has to say they send Harden away!"

"Doesn't it all start with Don helping the Spurs take out the Thunder in the Western Conference Finals? ( ̄_, ̄)”

"Anyway, David West signed early!"

"He's really toxic, he went to the Rockets, the Pelicans won the championship, and now he goes to the Pelicans, and the championship is mostly the Warriors' ......"

"Don't say anything, Warriors champion!"

……

The fan buzz on social media was unanimously tilted in favor of the Warriors.

Whether it is the defending champion Pelicans, the Big Three Rockets, or the Cavaliers led by James, they are no match for the Warriors.

As they talk about on social media, the Warriors are a 73-win team plus Durant!

While the addition of Durant means they have to give up Harrison Barnes and Azeli, one Durant has trumped everything.

After that, some other details were revealed one after another.

In addition to Curry, Iguodala, who had a similar experience, played a key role in the selection process for Durant.

The Warriors don't have enough salary space to sign Durant, and they have to send a core rotation player to clear the space.

They can choose to send Andre Iguodala for next season's salary of 11.13 million, or Bogut for 11.27 million.

According to the relevant reports, they are expected to send Bogut, who has suffered injuries and has performed mediocre since his return.

The Trail Blazers and Mavericks are hot candidates.

The free market is constantly lively, but Tang Tian is focused on wedding preparations, except for occasional exchanges with Demps.

The specific operation must be handed over to Carl and the wedding company, but after all, marriage is a once-in-a-lifetime thing, and the two of them are still very involved.

However, after seeing the news of Durant joining the Warriors, he still couldn't help but tweet.

The content of Twitter is simple, with only one word plus a punctuation mark.

"Traitor?"

Three years ago, when Tang Tian and the Pelicans reached a four-year poison contract, Durant once posted a traitor comment on social media.

Although Tang Tian, as a restricted free agent, just followed the normal procedure, Durant's wave of comments still brought a big wave of rhythm.

Even after more than three years, many people still remember.

Tang Tian is now posting such a state, which directly blew up social media.

"Haha, Tang's wave of operation, Tianxiu~"

"The slap in the face came too fast like a tornado......"

"Last season, the Thunder led 3-1 and were overturned by the Warriors, and this season they chose to join the Warriors? This is the truest traitor! ”

"And Durant said after the Warriors that he was already thinking about joining the Warriors last season......"

"Westbrook: One of us has a traitor!"

"If you can't beat it, join in? Turning enemies into friends? This is to be flaunted through the ages! ”

"Iguodala said I did it too, and I'm doing well!"

"666, things gather like and people divide into groups?"

“(?? ω?)? Hey! ”

"It's said that LeBron only won a championship before the Heat left, if Durant went to the Warriors, he wouldn't have won the championship......"

"That must be the worst thing of the 21st century."

"We all owe LeBron an apology! When he chose to go to Miami, the path chosen by the Big Three was not the most difficult, Durant was! ”

……

Durant chose to join the Warriors, making the Warriors the biggest favorites to win the championship.

It's even like the fans say, the kind that can directly send out championship trophies.

But the pressure of public opinion on Durant is also unprecedented.

A series of derogatory nicknames such as Du and Du Lao Er emerged in endlessly.

"Cowards care about the process, I just want the result."

In front of huge public opinion, Durant also showed his true colors as the king of Twitter, and posted such a direct tweet.

There is some truth in this sentence, the 76ers who have always believed in the process have not risen yet, and Durant joined the Warriors, not for the process but for the result.

All he wants is a championship, nothing else matters.

In fact, after he joined the Warriors, the Warriors basically locked up the championship.

There was a lot of excitement about Durant.

The next day, the day after the end of the free freeze period.

In addition to the players and teams who have reached verbal signings before, on this day, several favorite teams have broken the hot news.

The Rockets signed Eric Gordon to a four-year, $53 million contract.

Gordon did well with the Nets last season, but his height and injuries limited his ceiling, and the Nets were giving up on him by signing Jeremy Lin.

The Rockets' reasons for signing him at this time are also clear.

After the failed pursuit of Durant, this is their best plan B.

In addition to Harden's poor performance, the other most important reason for the Rockets' loss to the Pelicans last season was the weakness of the bench.

Gordon is not good as the core of the team, or the strength of the second or third leader, but it is definitely okay to play the sixth man off the bench.

The signing of Gordon, coupled with the growth of the players' own strength, and the run-in between each other, the Rockets will be even stronger in the new season.

In the eyes of the outside world, after the Rockets operate like this, not to mention arguing with the Warriors, at least with the Pelicans.

The Mavericks also signed a big fish on free agency, and after seven days of hard lobbying, they finally persuaded Conley to join.

The two sides signed a 4-year contract with a maximum salary of 114 million yuan!

Conley has been in the league for more than a decade and can get up to a five-year max contract with a starting salary of 35% of the league's salary cap.

Catching up with the skyrocketing salary cap, he has a chance to get the highest-paid five-year, $153 million contract in NBA history.

But the Grizzlies' failure to make the playoffs last season left management skeptical of the team's current roster and reluctant to offer such a big contract.

Coupled with the Mavericks' passionate pursuit, the would-be All-Star finally chose to join Dallas!
