Harden lifted the table and said publicly that the team manager was a liar and would not work with him again. Such a scale of turning over is really rare. Of course, Harden’s emotions and his views are not sudden. This is a fact you know and I know, and we all know that the fact is not what you want to say, everyone in the circle has a head and face. If you can hold the fire a little, the normal procedure is to set up a safety net before swearing, find a sound tube to pass two sentences, and give some pressure to public opinion, then both sides went back to the negotiation table to talk about conditions and interests. If it weren’t for being really anxious, Brother Deng wouldn’t have gone through the Pacific Ocean. In his heart, the dog must not be a human being.
In fact, the reason why Harden’s transaction is difficult has been systematically analyzed in previous articles:
Once failed? Only willing to bet
Simply put, the Clippers were in a state of undecided direction before the renewal problem of capsicum had a result. It was impossible to invest too much in Harden’s transaction, and 76 people also knew this. The confidence of 76 people to drag down is that they have some post-guarantee tactics. For example, Harden will leave the team freely next summer, and 76 people will create space under the hat to sign in the market. Since Harden is in the contract year and has experienced two less top seasons, it is obviously better to fight for the next big contract for a season with the team. Continue to drag on, even if you don’t find a suitable trading opportunity for Harden, it is possible to bet that he will fight for his contract honestly in the end.
In other words, as long as 76 people don’t make a move, Harden is in a situation of how to choose all diaphragm:
If you choose to lie flat, the next contract will be lost;
Choose to stand up, the first thing to get cool is 76 of them.
Harden finally chose to bomb Mo dog. I am not sure whether this is part of the plan or only the true feelings in specific situations. In today’s Internet era, no matter where you speak on the Earth, as long as images and sounds are recorded and uploaded, the effect is the same. However, human beings are situational animals. In different environments, the degree of nerve tension is different. If it was at a press conference of 76 people, Harden would face up to the local reporter’s speech, the pressure would be much greater. Across the Pacific Ocean, backed by the support of a large number of fans here, you can speak louder. Whether he is prepared or has a temporary true temperament, the anti-positive card has been played, and there are also the support of fans, teammates and some media. Now it depends on how 76 people take up the trick.
After that, the situation did change a little. 76 people were not panic, but now they have to consider the impact of this matter. Of course, there are not only interests in the business alliance. Reputation and friendship are not empty talk. There are many cases in which players and teams make profits to achieve win-win results. Let’s not talk about those teams with one person and one city. For example, potis waited in Milwaukee for one year to get a big contract, Paul’s executive player option was traded, and the next year to get a big contract was also a successful case, the latter operation is Morey’s own handwriting. However, the premise of these cases is that there is no accident. At the moment when the players give up profits and provide contracts, the situation faced by the management has not changed, so there is no pressure to fulfill the promise.
It is not a problem to talk about the matter of eating meat together, whether to talk about credibility or not about love and righteousness. However, when the situation has changed and the win-win situation cannot be achieved, credibility and friendship are not reliable, depending on the conscience of the superior. Last summer, when Harden made profits, both sides should have high expectations for Harden and the team. If Harden can recover and come up with a level close to the peak again, 76 people will undoubtedly become a strong champion competitor, and it will be easy to sign Harden’s next contract. But if both Harden and 76 people fail to meet expectations, what should we do next? Have the two sides discussed this possibility? Does 76 people promise that no matter what the result is, they will compensate Harden’s sacrifice in 2022 and give him a decent long-term guarantee?
We don’t know that these details will never be known unless Harden decides that everyone will die together, burst the news and hammer some strong evidence. In this alliance of severely punishing yin and yang contracts, the possibility of both parties leaving letters is zero, while the promise of moving words only depends on the credibility of the parties to each other as collateral.
The person who directly mortgaged the reputation was not 76 people, but Morey. Last summer, Harden only played less than half a season in 76 people, and he was not in love with the team. From the perspective of 76 people, whether Harden’s Grace value of lowering his salary by 15 million is worth a big old-age pension contract remains to be discussed. Without the guarantee of Morey, Harden would never dare to take risks. It doesn’t matter how he is with 76 people. Harden thinks he only needs to know Morey. Harden believed in Morey, and then everything happened in the past. Now something happened, he naturally wanted to find Morey.
At this time, Morey showed a tough attitude of resolutely safeguarding the interests of the team. “I asked Harden to reduce his salary, but I didn’t renew the contract for him. If I send him away now, I must also insist on making a profit to maximize his value. This man and I fought together in the rocket for many years, but it doesn’t matter. What I did was in line with my professional spirit for the benefit of the team. I will not abolish the public for personal reasons, and I will not talk about personal feelings.” If Harden does not jump up, Morey’s operation will become a bonus in the upper level.
You see, at this time last year, Morey told you about love, feelings, and posed a pair of “our old rockets” as one of his own people. If you have something to discuss, you have nothing to do. What about now? Morey plays professional ethics with you, talks about the rules of the game, and talks about the logic of business operation. Of course, everyone is no stranger to this story. Let you talk about justice when you sacrifice, and let him talk about principles when you are in the bottom. The benefits of love and reason are all taken by him. Who hasn’t met such a thing?
Of course, 76 people are not innocent. If 76 people draw a clear line with Morey, they can naturally let Morey take all credit risks. Before that, Morey’s choice as a team manager represented the attitude of 76 people. Harden stinks Morey’s reputation, and he is also torturing the reputation of 76 people. But to be honest, in an alliance where Pat Riley can’t cope with Wade, it is really doubtful how much long-term impact this matter can have on 76 people. However, the more Harden thought about it, the more he felt uncomfortable. He had reached the point of not doing anything. He wanted to make the whole thing need responsible people to fulfill his responsibilities:
OK, I chose a more risky solution last year. I can’t get a big contract. I am willing to bet and win. This can be recognized;
So, what about the aftermath? You can’t buy and sell. I can swallow the loss. Do you think about how much I can do for me?”
Morey just releases a tough attitude and emphasizes to earn the greatest benefits from Harden. The unselfishness is something Harden has never seen before, let Harden no longer know the dog he is familiar. If we say that there is still a little love between them, it is not that there is no way to integrate the interests of all parties-Morey tries to make Harden understand that the negotiation game on the surface is only temporary, eventually they will send Harden to where he wants to go. However, from the perspective of negotiation, the disclosure of this foundation is risky, which will strengthen Harden’s determination to go to the Clippers, which is obviously unfavorable to Morey. In order to keep a little bit of love and risk, it is not as good as the business to the end, just eat harden dry and wipe it clean.
This hatred is big.
So, you can understand why Harden is so angry. Harden made enough money in his career. He did have the capital to fight with Morey. Even if he couldn’t let himself leave the team earlier, killing a wave of Morey’s reputation in the league was also a happy enmity. No matter from which angle, I hope Harden can win. To teach Mo dog some lessons, we should also let people like Morey know that whether it is a kind of love or a career, there must be a bottom line when doing things.
