Li Feng left the United States and came to the Maldives with Natalie, Natalie in this world was born in 1990 like Li Feng, but Li Feng is June 22, Natalie has become December 24, the two will spend Li Feng's 23rd birthday in the Maldives, and if Li Feng's transaction can end as soon as possible, the two will also hold a wedding and get married.

Li Feng in the Maldives didn't pay attention to other news, while the soap opera about his trade intensified, and as Blackdoran had to explain under pressure that "the Knicks had a problem with funds and had to trade Li Feng to rebuild the team", the Knicks made trading Li Feng a foregone conclusion.

On the second day of Dolan's explanation, MSG Group gave a note that MSG Group's assets had shrunk by half, as if the real local tyrant Nix had turned into a dick?

In fact, really smart people know that this is just a trick played by Blake Dolan to reduce the pressure, but in this way, in order to fulfill this lie, the Knicks are afraid that they will fall into a complete rebuild!

Suddenly, in addition to Li Feng, this year's restricted free agents Cousins and Monroe have also become the targets of other teams, but any team has targeted Li Feng first.

Whether they really want to get Li Feng, or they want to take the opportunity to bully the trade value to hit their opponents, they have made offers to the Knicks and approached Tony privately.

Now that the Knicks have officially announced that they are going to trade Li Feng, the Knicks no longer take the initiative, because Li Feng has the veto power to trade, and many teams hope to reach an agreement with Li Feng privately first, and then negotiate with the Knicks.

But Tony insisted on Li Feng's opinion, he only got contact with the Knicks, and some teams wanted to avoid Tony and contact Li Feng directly, but Li Feng went to the United States, and no one could find any trace of Li Feng. The teams eager to get Li Feng had to make an offer to the Knicks first.

It is said that the first offer was made by the Nets, and the trade terms given by the Nets were "Lopez + David Lee plus draft picks for Li Feng", and Blackdolan's reply was "Are you trading Al Thornton at this price?" Do you have sincerity, at least pay Anthony before we can consider it? ”

In fact, Blackdolan didn't dare to trade Li Feng to the Nets in the same city.

After the Nets made a bid, other teams also made a move, and the Chicago Bulls wanted to get Li Feng, but Howard Paul Iguodala and others were all free agents, and they had too few chips in their hands, and TyGibson and Jimmy Butler were not attractive at all.

And at this time, the Cleveland Cavaliers gave a shocking offer, Tristan Thompson + Kyrie Irving + this year's first-round draft pick + Dion Wittus as the main bargaining chip, in short, the Cavaliers' offer is what the Knicks want. What they have, they can trade anything, there are completely Knicks to choose, as long as they get Li Feng, they can do anything.

It's just that Li Feng has already given the knight a death sentence, and Blackdolan is very satisfied with this offer, but he can't contact Li Feng, so he can only drag with the knight.

It's not just the Cavaliers who are making such an offer, even the Eastern Conference powerhouse Indiana Pacers are making such an offer. In order to get Li Feng, they can pay the star Paul George.

At the same time, the Utah Jazz in the West were not to be outdone, and they gave Gordon Hayward + Derrick Favors + Ineskant as the main chips. In fact, it's also very knightly for you to choose.

There are also teams such as the Hawks and Bobcats, who have also made offers on arbitrary trade terms, and almost all teams are involved in the battle for Li Feng, teams like the Lakers and Mavericks Spurs. Given the conditions that you can choose except for Kobi Nowitzki Duncan, this is enough to make everyone stunned.

During this period, the 2013 NBA Draft officially began. Mr. Lee's fate was not decided before the expected draft.

After the draft, on July 1, the free agent market opened, but on that day, the free agent market fell into a cold silence, and many teams did not dare to sign free agents casually for Li Feng.

In fact, many teams have impressed Blake Dolan, but Dolan still does not dare to trade Li Feng to the Eastern team, he is very eager to get young people like Paul, George, John, Vorkerey, Irving, Andre Drummond, but still mainly focuses on the Western team.

Of course, Blackdolan is very cunning, he does not express his position, but drags it, so that Li Feng's transaction is temporarily deadlocked.

And at this time, the Chicago Bulls can't hold their breath, Li Feng is not a free agent anyway, and the Bulls have three big-name free agents this summer, Dwight Howard, Chris Paul and Andre Iguodala.

In order to maintain their appeal to Li Feng, the Chicago Bulls agreed to contract extensions with Chris Paul and Dwight Howard almost the next day.

In the early hours of July 2, the Bulls reached the league's first signing with Paul.

The Bulls posted the news on their official Twitter: "@CP3's back! #公牛国度According to previous reports, Paul's deal with the Bulls is worth $107 million over five years, with a player option for the fifth year.

Paul previously stated that renewing the Bulls was a family-wide decision: "We even got CP4 involved. And in the official picture released by the Bulls, Paul's son "CP4" is indeed involved.

A few minutes later, Paul himself confirmed the news on Twitter:

"Finalize the agreement! #上帝太好了#公牛国度"

Paul's news hasn't had time to be digested, and Howard is almost equal to a contract extension.

When the entire league was crazy about Paul's contract extension with the Bulls, the Bulls offered Howard a five-year, $110 million contract, and Howard was very satisfied with it, and the signing should not be a problem.

The Bulls successfully left two absolute main players, Iguodala was left as a free agent, and signed two contracts of 100 million yuan in a row, the Bulls did not have much money to keep him, even if he stayed, he could not immediately become a bargaining chip to trade Li Feng, and the Bulls' idea was to sign first and then exchange.

Blackdolan's philosophy at Princeton University is that even if the team is supreme, all of them like players like Iguodala, but let Li Feng and Paul Howard form a big three, even he himself does not have the confidence to defeat such a bull!

The Bulls didn't know that their dream of a Big Three had long been shattered, but they kept Howard and Paul, and they immediately attracted a lot of old stars who hugged their thighs.

The Bulls' contract extension caused a ripple effect, and Josh Smith, one of the biggest free agents of the summer, joined the Detroit Pistons. The Pistons are offering a whopping salary of $5,600 for four years, while the Indiana Pacers are also close to keeping their interior firepower David West.

In addition, in order to further enhance the attractiveness of the team, the Chicago Bulls signed Marcus Camby, Kenyon Martin, and Nick Young three consecutive powerful players, even if they don't get Li Feng, the Bulls will be the favorites to win the championship next season.

Camby and Martin bolster the Bulls' interior line, and with Howard and Okafor, few teams can compete with their interior. And Nick Young has increased the Bulls' outside firepower, and with Iguodala's departure a foregone conclusion, their outside strength won't be too much of a loss.

Immediately afterwards, the Bulls made another move, they signed the veteran Chauncy Billups, and all of a sudden, the Bulls had the confidence and confidence to start negotiations with the Knicks to trade Li Feng again.

At the same time as the Knicks, the Bulls also contacted Tony. I hope to meet Li Feng.

The Bulls' actions naturally can't be hidden from other teams, and the Nets have vaguely hinted that the Nets are willing to trade Carmelo Anthony if Blackdolan is sincere enough. And Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, who can't sit still, said that as long as Nowitzki is not traded, in addition to the Mavericks' players, the Mavericks will also help pull a third party. Help the Knicks get what they need.

In such a situation, the Knicks had to notify Li Feng, who was on vacation, because Li Feng had the right to refuse the transaction!

And this time. Li Feng's departure is a foregone conclusion, and the media has begun to comment on the recent moves, and the Knicks and Li Feng's approach has received a lot of media praise in Europe, USA Today said:

"Li Feng did not like many stars, for more interests and team status, did not contact other teams, and even reached a secret contract in private, his approach brought more compensation to his old club Knicks, and the Knicks also fully gave Li Feng autonomy in the transaction, no mercenary, this kind of peaceful breakup method should be a model in professional basketball."

World Basketball also commented:

"Although it hurts for the Knicks to trade Li Feng, Li Feng is very humane, he didn't tear his face with the team, and fans don't have to worry about it, this is the era of professional basketball, and fans have no reason to ask Li Feng to stay with the Knicks until he retires, and Li Feng has his own freedom."

Tony spends his days moving between the major teams, being invited to morning tea by Cuban, being a guest of honor with the Lakers at noon, and flying to Boston for dinner in the evening......

After making substantive contact, Tony called Li Feng directly, because many teams with salary space are waiting for Li Feng, and they have given Li Feng the right to recruit and build a new one, leaving salary space for operation, no matter what team Li Feng wants to go to, it can't be delayed for too long, so the new team doesn't have much room to operate, and the team's strength may be far inferior to the current Knicks.

Li Feng pondered for a moment and said:

"What's the attitude of each family now?"

Tony Says:

"The Bulls are the most urgent, they can trade everything except Paul and Howard, but Blake is stuck: the Mavericks are also very sincere, if they go to the Mavericks, not only can they cooperate with Nowitzki, Nowitzki has publicly stated that you are the boss when you go to Dallas, and the Mavericks now have a salary space above the maximum salary; Other Eastern teams like the Nets can't be, the Pacers are now regretting it, they renewed West's contract and didn't want to trade George, they were only willing to provide Hibbert and Lance Stephenson, if you want to go to the Knicks to test the pressure, there are many such teams, the key depends on your attitude, Blake also said, if you go to the Western team, he can give you a lot of autonomy, you can operate anywhere, as long as it is not a team like the Lakers, the Knicks can consider trading losses.

Now it's time for you to choose, I think it's better to complete the deal early, in your situation, no matter where you go, you have to have the quality to win the championship, otherwise you and the team will face a lot of pressure, and the whole world will be questioned, this is a big adventure in your career, although you have to choose carefully, but you also have to make a quick decision. ”

Li Feng said:

"Are there any other teams?"

Tony was stunned for a moment and said:

"Yes, for example, the Utah Jazz and the New Orleans Pelicans, they are both Western teams, they can give the Knicks more satisfactory young players, and they have more than two salary caps, you can go and listen to your request at any time?"

Li Feng shook his head and said:

"What about your opinion?"

Tony Says:

"It's really hard to make a decision for a while, the Bulls can't go if they want to, Black won't agree, there are a lot of Cuban mountains, Mark Cuban is too authoritative, and he often points fingers at the team, the Warriors are much better than the Mavericks, but their chips are not as attractive as other teams, if you insist on going to the Warriors, it is estimated that the Knicks will push a qiē on your head.

There is no problem with the Spurs locker room, the owner, the coach, but Popovich is very strict, the team is his word, he is the real superstar of the team, I don't know if it can match your surname, this is a concern, but they are one of the best options.

There is also the Clippers, Sterling is willing to provide a qiē chip including Blake Griffin, but whether Sterling is for the Chinese market or what, I don't know, don't build yì you go to the Clippers.

If you want to challenge, then it's best to go to the Jazz Pelicans, or even to the Bobcats, the Knicks, the Eastern weaker team will not stop, but these teams are not confident, maybe it will take a long time to win the championship, unless you are as tired as last season!

After Tony finished his analysis, Li Feng nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Thank you Tony, you really bothered in this matter, the new team gave me the right to build a team, other conditions can be slightly conceded, and at the same time, I can try to help the new team fight for a little benefit, and it will be carried out on the premise that the Knicks can accept it, I don't exclude any team, try to be in the West, of course Utah doesn't go, it's Mormon territory, the climate is not good, the Pelicans are good, I like challenges, if they are really sincere, they can also be considered."

Tony was overjoyed when he heard this, and said:

"You finally gave specific conditions, I can hardly sleep these days, this is a major event related to your career, these conditions are not high, no matter how big their team is, what kind of team it is, we can't lower ourselves, basketball is based on strength."

Tony is full of bullishness, indeed, there is such an employer, he doesn't need to look at anyone's face when he talks and acts, of course, except for Li Feng himself, Li Feng is not only a basketball superstar, but also a billionaire. (To be continued......)
