Chapter 597:Home for the Old, Weak, Sick, and Disabled

"According to Clippers reporter reports, the Clippers have signed a one-year veteran salary contract with free agent Osseff, the contract amount is about 2.32 million US dollars, the new season, Osseff will return to his familiar Los Angeles Staples stadium, and wear the Clippers robes.Really fake?The guy in Osseff, who has been ruined by drugs and women’s belly, can still play?”

"The Clippers with the reporter's explosion, and said is really detailed, even the specific amount, I think nine out of ten is true."And a few days ago there were no reports that Osseff had begun to prepare for a comeback and began to resume training, and the place where he trained was the training center opened by the Clippers coach!Now that Ausel joined the Clippers, I'm not surprised."

Before the start of the new season's training camp, the news of Autherf's signing of the Clippers was finally revealed, and the price of a year's veteran base salary was not high, but for Osseff, it was an opportunity to regain dignity.

Just after last season, there were rumors of Autherf joining the Clippers in the league, and now the news is just to confirm this gossip, so the people who learned this news were not surprised.

But Osseff's "black history" is too much, and drugs, once contaminated it will be difficult to quit, no one will believe a drug addict, naturally no one is optimistic about Osseff's comeback, and this Clippers contract is also considered to be a bad decision.

In the sports media in the United States, those sports commentators gave the contract a very low evaluation, more than a dozen sports commentators' ratings, giving the best score of this signing is only C, not even a C + score.

However, just two days later, the Clippers announced a signing, they signed the free agent "Yellow Mamba" Hall for two years and $8.5 million.

Two years 8.5 million, an average of more than 4 million a year, this price is less than the conventional middle-class contract, more than the mini-middle-class.And the second year of the contract is a team option, and if Hall doesn’t do well, the Clippers won’t execute his second-year contract.

Of course, in Li Dai's plan, it is impossible to only use Hall for one year.An athlete can use three athlete patches, which means that Hall will not be plagued by a meniscus in the next three seasons, so Hall can play the peak of three seasons.

Li Dai is going to give Hall a year first, so that he can prove his strength, and then give him a two-year contract.Hall is a star player after all, and he deserves a salary that matches his strength.

However, after the signing was disclosed by the media, it was a critical voice.

"Now Hall is no longer the 'Yellow Mamba', he has no knee meniscus, to run can not run, to jump can not jump, he is already a waste man, really do not understand why the Clippers signed him."

"Two years 8.5 million, it is better to try a few failed rookies, maybe you can pick up one or two players who can use."

“If Hall had been able to play, he wouldn’t have had to retire.First signed a useless Osseff, now signed Hall, really can not understand the operation of the Clippers this year!"

Hall's comeback is not optimistic, not only that he lost his knees on the meniscus, but also because he has returned to the game after losing his knee meniscus, and the end result is that he really can no longer adapt to the intensity of NBA games.

At the peak of his body, Hall was unable to continue to play, and now a few years later, Hall is a few years older, and it is even less likely to make a successful comeback.

The news of the Clippers' transfer did not end there, and the next day in the media in the United States, the sports sector was occupied by such a headline:

Legendary star Raymond has announced his comeback!

Two scoring kings, seven-time All-Stars, as a player when it is a well-deserved superstar in the NBA, Raymond can indeed be described by the word "legend".

Seeing this news, countless Raimond fans were excited, many people do not care if Raymond can play that kind of superstar data again, they only care that Raymond can return to the court.

People began to speculate on which team Raymond would eventually join, or which team would give Raymond a football branch, and some people worried that no team in the NBA would accept Raymond.After all, Raymond played so many years of the ball, has been injured, and he retired for a while, now Raymond, I am afraid can not adapt to the NBA game rhythm.

This fear is obviously superfluous, and just a few hours after Raymond announced his comeback, the Clippers released news and reached a three-year contract with Raymond for $25.8 million, of which the third year was the team option.

For Raymond, salary is not the most important thing for him, he is not short of money, and he has made hundreds of millions of dollars in his career.He is more concerned about what Li Dai promised, the position of the team's starting position.Raymond was a superstar after all, and the face of the superstar was still wanted, and if the team was willing to ensure his starting position, he did not mind taking some salary.

From the perspective of the Clippers, three years 25.8 million to change a superstar like Raymond, this is of course a very cost-effective deal.

Except for the Clippers, no one thinks that the current Raymond is worth 25.8 million in three years.

Sure enough, after the Clippers announced the signing of Raymond at this price, almost everyone thought that the Clippers were stupid money, and the typical rich Kaizi loser would spend such wrong money on Raymond's balloon star.

...

At the Clippers' training hall, Raymond sat on the sidelines, holding a few of the latest newspapers in his hand, and his face was very iron blue.

Raymond is now in a bad mood, those media even said that he is not worth three years 25.8 million salary, and even some people say that he is only worth a veteran base salary, which in Raymond's view, is simply insulting!

On the other side, there was also a depressing face and Gray.

The Clippers also announced that they signed Gray with the veteran base salary, but the news did not pay much attention, and people's eyes were focused on Raymond.

Gray felt very lost, and he hated this feeling of being ignored.As a proud son of heaven, the "great emperor" who has high hopes, now he is like a grain of unremarkable sand, even if it is thrown into the water, it will not stir too many waves.

In the distance, Noel rushed over.

“Noel, how are you over there?Did the league approve your return to the court?”Raymond asked.

“There are concerns about the league, and he asked me to provide at least half a year of medical examination reports to prove that there was no new clotting in my body, so that I was allowed to play, and I have only one month of medical reports.”Noel shrugged his shoulders.

“That means you’ll have to wait at least five months to play, and that’s not until January next year!”Raymond choked his fingers to calculate.

Noel nodded: "So in the first half of the season, the team's results are all up to you, I can only sit in a suit on the sidelines to cheer you up."

...

New York, NBA headquarters, the league's regular press conference.

The league's press officer sat on the podium and responded with a smile to the reporter's question: "Indeed, we have received an application from Knoll to play, but for the safety of the player, we asked him to provide a six-month medical report to prove that the clots in his body have been completely eliminated and will not prevent him from playing normally."

“If Noel is back on the court, will he be able to return to the Miami Heat or join another team?”The reporter then asked.

“Noel has been cut by the Heat, so he’s a free agent now, and any NBA team can choose him to sign, but without league approval, he can’t play.”The press officer answered.

At this time, a reporter's mobile phone at the scene shook a little, he immediately took out his mobile phone and looked at it, suddenly showing a surprised expression.

“The Los Angeles Clippers have announced that they have finished signing with free agent Noel!”

“The Clippers again?The other day, Hall, Raymond and Gray, and now even Noel has signed up with the Clippers!”

“What is the Clippers doing?Why are there so many retired players?Can they still play?”

The people immediately began to talk.

...

On a sports review program, commentators are talking to the camera.

“The L.A. Clippers are operating this summer and I can only give him a D!”They had enough salary space to renew Ronnie and add up to a few role players from the free market, but they didn’t do that and see who they all chose!”

“A drugged and cut leg by his wife, Hall, a crippled player without a meniscus, Raymond, a retired superstar with injuries, Gray, a long-legged glass man, and Noel, who had clots in his body, is the Clippers’s signing for this season.”

“It’s been really bad in my opinion, and arguably the worst in the NBA this summer.They don't offer potential new stars, they don't recruit ready-made stars, they don't renew their core players, they're signing players who have been eliminated by the NBA."

"For example, you now have some money, you can buy a brand new Ford, you can also buy a second-hand BMW, but you have gone to the scrap yard, found a Porsche that can't be on the road at all!"Well, although it is a Porsche, but the Porsche that has been scrapped is just a pile of scrap iron.That's stupid."

“I’m just trying to make an analogy, I don’t mean to offend the players, but one thing I have to say is that the Los Angeles Clippers are not like an NBA team, they’re more like the NBA’s old, sick and disabled shelter!”
