"The "joy" and "worry" of the Timberwolves! The salary exceeds the luxury line to be paid
Hi"with"Sad"Coexisting Timberwolves! If salaries go beyond luxury standards, will employers reduce costs?
Renewing Conley's contract shows that management is willing to pay taxes, and they don't want to see a team that has a championship chance to be disbanded. Originally, the Forest team had a very poor attack power, and they were also at the bottom of the league, and they only had two players who could attack freely, if they just wanted to save some money and sell Downs, would it make their attack power worse? Downs remains the most offensive player in the league, and based on his three-shot stats, the team has surpassed 50 points.
This team is similar to the team in '04, it was only established two years ago, but because of the record, the team's salary has exceeded the luxury level, so the team's head coach and manager are there"Cut the meat", constantly bargaining with Cassel and the madmen, delaying their contracts. The team is still making the same mistakes, first by paying for a new contract with Marbury, once by saving money and by signing Billups on a contract and once by Joe Smith with a fake contract!
Joe Smith's contract cost the Forest three years of draft picks, which leaves them with little room to play for the rest of the year, they don't get any picks, they can't get any players they want in the first round, if they want to get better players, then they have to get what they want, and if they want to get the first pick, then they have to have enough quality. If you don't get a first-round pick, will someone trade you?
A first-round pick can be exchanged for a promising rookie and a first-round pick for a stud star player, and if there is no suitable player, it can only be used in exchange, but so what? And what is this for? It's not about exchanging kilograms for another one in Minnesota"Jail"The star?
But in the free market, it's very difficult to make the team stronger, and every year there is a large middle class that is left out, and it is impossible for them to sign any good players in the free market, let alone sign stars.
Billups is a great example of how he got a huge benefit from the Pistons with a salary of six million before the team could find the right man. If there are no newcomers, they will have to train in the club, and those who have talent and quality will not be sent to the market, and even if they don't sign, their teams will give them a suitable contract because they are all mid-to-top players. Therefore, don't take the annual salary of forty or fifty million to compete for the Western Conference Finals just because the Timberwolves' salary has been too low over the years!
