Chapter 657: New Season Planning (3/4!) )
The interesting thing is that James once again played supernatural statistics, averaging 40.2 points, 10.7 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game.
What's even more interesting is that 70% of the fans in the half of the fan vote voted for James FMVP.
However, in the final result, the Warriors' Iguodala narrowly won by 2 votes, and after Carter and Harden, he became another player who won the FMVP award as a substitute.
This result is very interesting, whether the FMVP result has been changed like two years ago, Tang Tian doesn't know, he just thinks that this Warriors team will really be more difficult.
is not only the strength, but also the luck of this body, and it is estimated that it can also top the upper half of the system.
The Warriors won the final championship, and the 2014~2015 NBA season finally came to an end.
At the end of the season, the Warriors' market value reached 1.8 billion on Forbes' latest team market value list.
Because of the successive acquisitions of the Clippers and the Nets, the market value of each team has increased a lot compared with the previous life.
This is a good thing for Tang Tian.
Swift holds 20% of the Warriors' shares, and then she married Tang Tian, because there is no precedent in the NBA, so the NBA officials did not order Swift to sell his shares.
But the official's private instructions were not less at all, and the pressure on Tang Tian's side was almost unbearable.
In other words, if the Nets make it to the Finals this year, it's a really big problem.
Therefore, selling is the way to go, and this wave of appreciation of the Warriors can be regarded as making Tang Tian earn.
Lart and Tang Tian also met recently, in addition to the daily relationship, the team's third boss also revealed a message to him, because of the increase in the team's market value, his company's board of directors also raised the price in his hands.
The previous price of 1.4 billion has been made old, and now the new price is 1.52 billion.
The rapid growth rate made Tang Tian feel pressured, and it seemed that time was really waiting for no one.
However, before considering the acquisition plan, because the draft is about to begin, his attention still has to be focused on this area first.
The Nets have a total of three draft picks this year, and the Suns' pick has been finalized in the lottery meeting, and like in previous lives, they are all 13 picks.
This result was actually unexpected by Tang Tian, you must know that when he first traded, he was prepared to pay some other price, just like in his previous life, but it saved him a lot of trouble.
In addition to the 13th pick, the 23rd pick from the Trail Blazers was finalized.
In the second round, they have the Suns, the 13th pick in the second round and the 43rd overall pick.
15 years is not a big year for the draft, but if Tang Tian opens his eyes, he knows that this is the most underrated draft in recent years.
The Nets will also have a lot to gain in this draft.
Before the draft, Tang Tian also sorted out the team roster.
Last season's 15-man squad.
Point guards: Delon, Livingston, Tyler Johnson
Quarterbacks: Bogdan Bogdanovic, Maddy, Will Barton
Forward: Joe Johnson, Bojan Bogdanovic, Jonathan Simmons
Omae: Yi Jianlian, Lavoy Allen, Mike Scott
Centers: Jokic, Pralim, Oden
Among them, Yi Jianlian, Will Barton, Lavoy Allen, Mike Scott and Oden have all expired their contracts.
Maddie and Livingston both have one year left on their contracts.
Looking at the list, Tang Tian also began to make a rough plan for the new season.
Joe Johnson still needs to be sent away first, his 13.6 points and 4.6 rebounds per game in the playoffs last season was not very good, but the competitive form he showed still made him not trade like he was in his previous life, and the most likely thing is that he will be paired with a draft pick or a young player or two.
After sending away Joe Johnson, before Yi Jianlian's contract extension, the Nets had more than 30 million salary space, which was enough for them to sign a top-paid player and a high-quality role player in the free market.
The Nets have come back to life after a season.
Delonga's unknown top-paid player plus Jokic is the Nets' trident, supplemented by Yi Jianlian and a group of role players, counting Tang Tian's goal in the draft, the Nets' rise will really be faster than everyone imagined.
With the initial plan, Tang Tian called Jones and began to connect with the teams.
"Do you have to send away Joe Johnson, even if it's a young player of Bojan's level?" Jones confirmed it to Tang Tian.
Tang Tian nodded, except for Jokic, other young players can be replaced, but Johnson is the source of all plans, and it will be useless if he can't send anything away.
Jones probably had this in mind, and then he talked about the draft.
"I think Kyle Oubre and Sam Decker are a better fit for us, and if we trade Joe, we need new players at small forward, and Decker can fill in the void of our big forward."
"Well, both of these are great rookies, but the draft will wait until the scene, and this year's draft is just as important to us, so I don't want to make any mistakes until then." Tang Tian said it more bluntly.
Jones didn't mind, he knew Tang Tian's character, the two had worked together for so many years, and Tang Tian also had this attitude before the draft last year, and the selected Jokic really surprised everyone, and if he also had this attitude this year, maybe it would bring a new cornerstone to the team.
In the past, I followed Tang Tianchao and felt that everything was going well, but now it is obviously reconstruction, but it is still a feeling of a bright future.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's time for the draft.
On June 26, just like last year, this year's draft will still be held at Barclays Center, home of the Nets.
In the home draft, after Tang Tian joined the Nets, he was spared the hard work of traveling.
The day before the draft, the teams began to make formal contacts, and the Nets put Joe Johnson on the shelf for the first time.
Because the contract is as high as $24.89 million, although it is the final year, there are not many teams that inquire about it.
In other words, the contract is so big that unless there is a very good return, even the bad team will have to weigh it.
Tang Tian is not in a hurry for the time being, if it really doesn't work, he will also use this year's draft picks.
Before the advent of the free market, he was still calm.
On the evening of June 26, the Barclays Center was crowded, but this time they were not here for the game, but for the annual draft meeting.
Tang Tian met his old subordinates outside the draft hut again, but compared to last year, their mood was not too good.
Thibodeau felt his hairline pull back a bit, and the Bulls were out of the first round, and time was running out for him.
Stevens is also in a hurry, and he has been in the West for many years, and he is under more pressure than anyone else.
Only Cole was proud.
"Don, I'll try to finish what you've done." Like Tang Tian, he won the championship when he debuted, and he was full of confidence when he joked with Tang Tian with a smile.
