3 years of US$178 million! No. 1 in the league! Jokic refuses to renew his contract, and the Nuggets 17 players continue to win the championship

NBA offseason is a good opportunity for teams to overtake on the curve and a carnival feast for capital. After the Oxford Thunder won the first NBA championship in team history, Alexander, Jaylen Williams and Homegren signed maximum salary contracts one after another. The Thunder spent more than 820 million US dollars to build their own small dynasty. But then again, from the moment they were crowned the championship, Alexander and the Thunder became imaginary enemies of other championship teams in the league! Especially the Denver Nuggets, who make a fortune in silence and are expected to make a comeback, and are the biggest opponent on the Thunder's road to defending their title!

Nuggets keep moving, and the prospects are promising. The Eastern World is full of upsets. The Cavaliers and the Celtics both lost their 60-win teams in the semi-finals, which invisibly lowered the value of the Thunder championship. During the Thunders' championship, the finals opponent Pacers did drag them into tiebreak, but it is undeniable that the Denver Nuggets' sweat was actually the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets used 7-man rotation to drag the Thunder into tiebreak in the Western Conference semi-finals, demonstrating their strong body advantage and the foundation of the championship team, losing due to injuries and lineup depth. In the words of fans, if Gordon hadn't had his hamstring strain, the Thunder would not have been the one who laughed to the end!

This offseason, the Nuggets continued to move and won numerous praises. First of all, the Nuggets will turn temporary coach Adelman Jr. into regular support to encourage him! Immediately afterwards, the Nuggets and Nets completed a big deal, using Porter Jr. + the first round of 2032 to exchange for Old Huang Zhong; then, the Nuggets signed Bruce Brown with a one-year, $3.08 million veteran maximum salary contract, and signed Hardaway Jr. with a one-year, $3.63 million boss basic salary contract; in the end, the Nuggets and Kings completed a one-for-one transaction, gave Saric and got Valan! After one operation, the Nuggets turned corruption into magic, created a more in-depth lineup, and also solved the problem of Jokic's substitute, with promising prospects.

3, 178 million US dollars, the first in the league, as we all know, the Nuggets have been subtracting the lineup since winning the championship in 23 years, which is also the reason why they stopped in the Western Conference semi-finals for two consecutive years; but since Malone and Booth both were dismissed, the Nuggets seemed to have become sober: Jokic is indeed too strong, and his peak period can no longer be so abandoned. When will he wait until he doesn't make a stop at this time? In the words of fans, the Nuggets' offseason operations are confessions to the past and compensation for Jokic. Jokic deserves all this! Last season, Jokic played 70 games, averaging 29.6 points + 12.7 rebounds + 10.2 assists + 1.8 steals. He is the first center in NBA history to complete a triple-double average in the season! Even if Jokic lost the MVP and lost the series, no one dared to say that Alexander is a better star than Jokic!

In the ranking of the top 100 stars in the new season selected by ESPN, it was not Alexander, but Jokic; in the list of MVP odds predicted by the US media, it was not Alexander, or Jokic; in the vote for coaches, scouts and executives to select the "NBA's best player in active service", the answer given by 20 votes was even more amazing: Jokic beat Alexander with 19 votes (1 vote). Jokic is at his peak at the age of 30, with 3 years and 178 million US dollars left in the contract. His salary in the new season is as high as 55.22 million US dollars. For the sake of reason and profit, Jokic will return in a stronger posture in the new season!

Jokic refused to renew his contract, and the Nuggets 17 players continued to win the championship, and the Nuggets were very excited when they were happy. The Nuggets were like a big wing, but Jokic was particularly calm on the issue of renewal. According to calculations by NBA salary experts, Jokic is eligible to sign a three-year, $212 million super maximum salary contract with the Nuggets during this offseason. However, Jokic refused this early contract renewal of the maximum salary contract! On the one hand, Jokic can wait until next year's offseason to hit a 4-year, $292 million super maximum salary contract, which can earn 80 million more than renewing the contract early this summer; on the other hand, Jokic believes in his own strength and his body, and is not worried that he will not be able to make more money next summer due to his health! More importantly, Jokic can better control his future, so as to prevent the Nuggets from subtracting the lineup again!

Nuggets' 17-man team is officially released, the details are as follows: inside line - Jokic + Valan + Holmes, forward line - Gordon + Huang Zhong Old + Strauser + Najib + Tyson + Spencer Jones (two-way contract), back line - Murray + Braun + Hardaway Jr. + Watson + Bruce Brown + Pickett + Curtis Jones (two-way contract) + Bates (two-way contract). Overall, the Nuggets have fully upgraded their lineup around Jokic. Superstars + championship experience + lineup depth are their confidence to continue to strive for the championship! Planning is in the hands of others and accomplishing things is in the sky. I wish Jokic and the Nuggets! Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
