The Bulls management organized another championship parade, which was the same route as last year. With experience, the city order was maintained better this time.

At the celebration, Wang Jun was commended by the mayor and accepted questions from fans with his teammates.

As usual at night, the players celebrate with invited friends.

Wang Jun called Abby, her two sisters, Xia Baowen, and Curry all. The bulls booked a club, and the more people they were, the more lively it became.

During the entire banquet, Wang Jun did not talk about basketball with his teammates anymore, and he was completely in the holiday.

The more busy one is manager John Paxson, who soon went to the free market to open. When the players were on holiday, it would be more troublesome to make an appointment with each other and had to negotiate with the agent. He wanted to seize the opportunity of the party and have a good chat with several important players who might leave.

The boss issued a new instruction. Since the Bulls have won two consecutive championships, they must ensure three consecutive games and establish a dynasty in any case. They must not fail in the following season.

Of course, Paxson hopes that the team can win three consecutive championships, and his position in the Bulls' management will be unbreakable. Wang Jun's annual salary is about to be huge, and he must control his salary.

He first chatted with Simrich alone and tried to try his words. Simrich's contract has expired, and Summer is the one who restricts the free agent and is also the person who is most likely to leave.`

Hinrich has two championships and his net worth has increased. Last season, he averaged 102 points and 86 assists per game. His shooting percentage is very high, and his ordinary contract will definitely not be renewed. Paxson hopes Hinrich can reduce his salary appropriately.

Hinrich played for four years with the Bulls and was used to Chicago. He had feelings for the team. He didn't want to leave unless he had no choice. So he spoke straight to the point. "Manager, how big can the team give me a contract?"

As long as the price is fair, Hinrich will leave behind two championships and close to double-double data, plus the qualifications of the Dream Seven team in the World Championships, he will definitely have no problem with getting an annual salary of tens of millions.

Paxson said embarrassedly: "The biggest contract I can offer is about 480,000 yuan in five years."

The free market opened in July, and Hinrich was a big fish. There must be many teams who want to dig him. Then he promised one of them first, and then wait for the match. Paxson is so real because he can't play with the virtual ones.

The offer was different from what Hinrich expected, so he smiled slightly: "I'll think about it. I'll give you a reply before the free market opens."

Paxson went to find Lolden again, hoping to convince him to enter the free market after the last year of his rookie period.

Lol Dun was dissatisfied with his playing time for a long time. As Barnes's playoffs increased, he wanted to leave even more.

Luo Erden's intention to leave was decided and said with a wry smile: "Sorry, manager, please trade me out of the team in the summer. Play for another year. If my average score is just double-digit, I'm afraid no team will give me a big contract next season. I'm still young and don't want to be the third or fourth player of the team."

Parks refused to give up and advised, "Don't you want to establish a dynasty with the team?"

"I think. But making money is more important. If you give up a high salary in order to get an extra ring, it is not what I want. This is what my agent means." Luo Er Deng had his own persistence.

Don’t look at Paxson as if he was "You are my own son" and "The team cannot be without you" to persuade him here, if he treats the manager as a good person and agrees to stay, he will definitely be unlucky.

As long as the Bulls complete three consecutive championships, there will definitely be excellent players willing to reduce their salary. At that time, if they want to stay, they will have to reduce their salary. The data is not good. It will be difficult for them to get a contract of tens of millions when they leave. There will be no team betting on his talent. Although he can defend, he is not a 3D player and has flaws.

Barnes has begun to move towards the 3D player this season. This makes Lorden feel threatened.

Paxson smiled and said, "I hope you can think carefully. If you really want to leave, contact me in July and I will send you to a suitable team."

"Thank you." Luo Erden is most afraid of being forced to stay by the management.

The contract has not expired, and if the other party insists on keeping him, he has no choice but to continue fighting.

Lorden and Nosioni were different. He planned to leave, but did not specifically notify Wang Jun.

Although he doesn't hate Wang Jun, he always feels uncomfortable. He thinks that if Wang Jun doesn't come, maybe he will be trained by the team as the core, and now it will be a different situation.

He has been in Chicago for three years, likes this city, and goes to other teams, can he be better than this city?

Los Angeles are good, but the Lakers have already chosen Radmanovic last season and have no salary space to poach him. Going to a small city team, even if you get a high salary, the psychological gap is large enough.

After returning home, Hinrich immediately asked his family for his opinion and contacted his agent Jeff Austin by phone.

Austin told him: "The Hawks are in urgent need of point guards now and are preparing to give you a high salary to partner with Joe Johnson on the outside, and I suggest you consider the Hawks."

The Hawks' original target was Mike Bibby of the Kings. Bibby would definitely not leave after joining the Cavaliers, so they set their sights on Hinrich and Billups, and at least one of them was going to dig.

Although the Pistons are preparing to rebuild, Billups is the team's outside core after all, and there is little chance of leaving.

Hinrich's data is not as good as Billups, and he also served as the core of the Bulls before Wang Jun arrived. His attack power was not weak, but he only reduced his attack power.

Now, Hinrich is the Hawks' number one target, and it is very difficult to find a point guard with excellent offense and defense, so he will get a high salary.

Hinrich was unsure of his mind and asked, "Should I leave the Bulls to make millions of dollars more each year? If I stay, I might become a member of the dynasty. This time the Bulls have a No. 1 pick."

Austin said seriously: "This is just a theory. If the Bulls choose Oden, they will definitely train him. In the future, it will increase the proportion of inside offense, and it will be more difficult for you to get the ball. Now you are the third leader of the team. If Lewis stays in the team, when Oden plays, maybe you will be the fourth player in the team. Is this your goal?"

Hinrich sighed, how could this be his target? His template was Stockton in the draft, with a much higher pick than Wang Jun.

After arriving at the Bulls, he was confident that he would become the core, and the next year he was indeed a little close. After that, his light was completely covered up by Wang Jun.

He wants to become a star, not an excellent role player. Joining the Hawks and getting a high salary will definitely get more playing time.

Austin talked about the benefits of joining the Hawks.

The Hawks lack offensive points, and Hinrich may not be able to compete with Jo Johnson, but will be stronger than Josh Smith and Marvin Williams, at least the second leader.

The Hawks have a chance to enter the playoffs next season, except for the lack of good centers, all other positions are good.

The Hawks imitated the Bulls' play, which was a small ball tactic, and Hinrich could easily integrate into the team.

Finally, Austin smiled and said, "Anyway, you are a restricted free agent. First, agree to the Hawks' offer. If the Bulls are sincere enough and willing to match, then you will stay. You have just entered the rookie period and there is no reason to cut your salary."

"Just do what you said." Hinrich made up his mind.

Paxson had already talked to him, and he knew he was leaving.
