Where should Leonard, who seriously overestimates himself and takes a narrow path, go?

After leading the Raptors to win the championship, what will Leonard do next? Netizens pointedly pointed out that Leonard’s new signing team must be the Raptors, Lakers and Clippers. Although the probability of the Clippers is almost equal to 0 in my eyes, I might as well forget it for fear of being slapped in the face. The current probability of the Raptors is almost 98, the Lakers are about 2, and the Clippers are basically 0. Now, the reason why Leonard is having an affair with the Lakers and even the Clippers is that Leonard's uncle's family is seeking an endorsement contract in Los Angeles. If the endorsement contract in Los Angeles is much larger than that of the Raptors or Canada. Then Leonard will go to Los Angeles or sign a 1+1 or 2+1 contract with the Raptors. Superstars earn more from endorsement fees than salary from team jerseys, and the team will give them a commission from the jerseys sold, which is more than the playoff dividends. Teams entering the playoffs receive additional tickets for each game they play, including more at home and fewer on the road, which are not included in the luxury tax. In fact, the NBA is a business league. Don't simply think that some role players will simply take a salary cut for the championship, as long as the championship greatly increases their endorsement and popularity off the court.

There is also Leonard’s contract issue. The first thing to make clear is that Leonard is a superstar. In fact, many people don’t understand the league’s Baird Clause, and I don’t know much about it either. But one thing I know very well is that stars who have been in the league for 10 years can get the highest starting salary, and new players must be the third-best players in the new team. The Baird clause of the maximum contract is satisfied every year, which is one of the reasons why /Klock-3/ did not directly sign a long-term contract with Durant after the transfer. All, I saw many professional websites in the NBA directly saying that the Raptors can offer a five-year contract, so I wanted to scold them. Do these people understand the NBA? Do you understand NBA contracts? Leonard is still young and has another year of playing. Leonard has only been in the NBA for 8 years and now he has to sign a 5-year contract? In my eyes, Leonard's uncle has always been a professional agent and has done a very good job in protecting Leonard's interests. How was the Eastern Conference team last year? But this year, Kaizi is the No. 1 Bucks in the league, Butler-Harris grew up among the 76ers' double stars, and one of the garbage brothers was ranked as the No. 1 offensive and defensive player /Klock-0/. I told you, except for the Western Warriors, which team can call the Eastern Conference semifinals a series.

Is it okay for the Rockets to be weaker this season than last year? Personally, I think the Warriors are on the same level, while the Eastern Conference Four and Rockets are on the same level. Not to mention that the two teams in the 5-8 division are all running against each other in the game, so what can it reflect? Let's take a look at the new season. Warriors are a thing of the past. Even if the Lakers can return to their strong man, the Rockets and Green Army are in the same state, just maintain their strength. The Green Army is still very strong without Irving returning to Shuangtanhuakai. It was Leonard's decisions that affected the pattern. When Leonard returns to the West, the level of strong teams in the East and West is equal, still with the Raptors. Then like this season, the east is strong and the west is weak. In the most profitable situation, Leonard will not sign a 5-year contract, nor will he go to another team to sign any 4-year contract.

As long as Leonard stays for two more years, he will meet the Baird clause's maximum contract of 10 years of advanced general terms, so I predict here that I will either sign a 1+1 or even 2+1 contract with the Raptors for two years. Then I jumped out of the contract and signed a long-term contract that met my maximum salary. Those who ask for a five-year contract extension with the Raptors can stop. As for those who are underpaid by the Lakers, you should know more about the NBA. The lack of salary is specific to free agency. At present, the Lakers have not officially traded the Pelicans. They can sign Leonard first and then the Pelicans. Even if you use the Pelicans, you can also use the Raptors and then change. You could even have Leonard sign with another team and then trade. Again, if Los Angeles cannot provide Leonard with a larger endorsement contract, Leonard cannot partner with James. As for the Clippers, they are a joke. Leonard estimated that the Clippers didn't make much money with the Raptors. If the Clippers can pull Durant away, they will still be able to perform.
