Chapter 398 Completion of Early Contract Renewal
On November 2011, 11, the labor and management finally reached a preliminary agreement, and the long NBA lockout that lasted 26 days ended. ESPN reporter Mark Stein exposed the new agreement memorandum sent to the players by the executive director of the players union Billy Hunter. To reward those players who perform well.

The provisions of Rose's clause are as follows: 1. Won the regular season MVP during the rookie contract period; Star voted twice as a starter in the All-Star Game.

As long as one of the above three conditions is met, the "Ross Clause" can be triggered.Of course, there is a prerequisite here, which is "during the rookie contract period".

If this prerequisite is not set, then in the entire NBA, there are still quite a few players who meet this condition.But setting such a condition, currently in the entire NBA, only Derrick Rose meets this condition.

That's why the clause is named after Ross.

Xie Kai did not meet Rose's terms. He never won the regular season MVP, never started a game in the All-Star Game, and was selected to the best team only once.

But it's not that he has no chance to trigger this clause at all, because his rookie contract has 1 year left.In theory, he is expected to complete 3-1 of these 2 conditions.

There is no hope for the All-Star, and it seems unrealistic to win the regular season MVP next season. As long as Xie Kai does not suffer any major injuries, the team's record should not be too hot. With his current Strength is still very hopeful.

After all, there is only one regular season MVP in a season, and there are 6 spots in the best team, even if only guards are counted!

Because of the emergence of the Ross clause, the negotiations between Xie Kaifang and the Grizzlies regarding his early contract renewal have become more complicated.If the contract is renewed in advance, if Xie Kai is selected to the best team again in the new season and the Rose clause is triggered, then even if it is the same maximum salary, there will be a big gap between them.

If Xie Kai renews his contract with the Grizzlies with a maximum salary according to the old version of the labor agreement, he can get a big contract with a starting salary of 1450 million U.S. dollars; million dollar contract.

If they are all top salaries, without the Ross clause, Xie Kai's contract can be $5 million in five years, but with the Ross clause, his contract can reach an astonishing five-year $8000 million.

If the contract is set to increase year by year, Xie Kai's salary in the last year can reach the level of 2000 million + with the Ross clause!
You know, the starting salary of Warcraft, CP3, Deron and other top stars who entered the NBA before Xie Kai's next contract is only this price.

Of course, the Grizzlies are naturally unwilling to let Xie Kai get a big contract under Rose's terms. It's not that they don't value him, but that if this happens, the team's salary pressure will be very high.

If the salary of a team exceeds the salary cap, an additional $100 million will put some pressure on the management.Not every team owner is willing to pay a high luxury tax in order to compete for the championship.

There may be many fans who will say: "In order to win the championship, it is worth spending more money, and it should be!" But you give advice, and you don't spend your money. Players' salaries and luxury taxes have to be paid out of the owner's pocket from.No one's money comes from strong winds. Those owners who can own an NBA team, who doesn't have the shrewdness of a businessman!

Xie Kai's contract extension will definitely not end so soon. Of course, the initiative is in his hands. As long as he is willing to nod, the Grizzlies should be happy to offer a five-year, $5 million contract.

5 million US dollars in 8000 years!The average salary has reached 1600 million per year, which is a proper maximum salary.Those who can get this kind of contract are generally the core of a team.It is impossible for a role player to get a contract of this level unless the team's brains are flooded.

Xie Kai is currently still on a rookie contract, which is $4 million for 500 years, which is less than one-tenth of this contract.

But even such a big contract, after the introduction of the Ross clause, it will no longer be scary, because the latter can get 5 million US dollars for 9400 years!
The difference between the two is 1400 million US dollars, which is not a small amount!
On December 12, according to "Yahoo Sports" expert Brian Mahoney, both employers and employees voted to pass, which means that starting today, the lockout is officially over.Today, the president of the league, David Stern, held a press conference to officially announce to the outside world that the lockout that started on July 9 has officially ended.

On the same day, the well-known expert Ken Berger of "CBS Sports Network" revealed that the players have voted to approve the new labor agreement, and the league also announced the salary cap and luxury tax trigger line for the new season.It is reported that the salary cap for the 2011-12 season is $5804.4 million, the luxury tax trigger line is $7030.7 million, and the team minimum salary is $4643.5 million.The salary cap and luxury tax threshold for the new season have not changed compared with last season.

In other words, if Xie Kai renews his contract in advance, without the Ross clause, he can get a maximum salary of 5 million US dollars for 8000 years!

The free agent market has opened, and the signing of Xie Kai and Xiao Jiasao has been put on the agenda by the Grizzlies.

2011-12赛季将是一个缩水赛季，常规赛将只有66场，比之前的82场足足少了16场。而季前赛也减少到每队2场，圣诞节正式开战。

In the previously announced schedule, the new season's schedule is much denser than before. There are 529 back-to-back games, and there are actually 42 so-called "back-to-back" disgusting games.

On December 12, the media day of the NBA 10-2011 season started.Although it was a few months later than last year's media day, it did not weaken the sports media's attention to the league's teams at all. A large number of media staff came to the scene to take makeup photos for the players and conduct pre-season interviews, etc. wait.

Earlier in the day, Yahoo Sports' famous reporter Woj announced a heavyweight news: Grizzlies' fourth-year All-Star guard, Xie Kai from China, completed an early contract extension with the team!
The news was explosive enough that the number of media workers on the Grizzlies' media day was even comparable to that of the defending champion Dallas Mavericks and the overall runner-up Miami Heat.

The specific contract details of Xie Kai's contract renewal have not been announced yet, but it is conceivable that this must be a contract that satisfies both parties!
