For a rich fan boss like Cai Chongxin, it's simply not worth mentioning to pay an extra 87 million luxury tax on the premise of getting a top five superstar in the league. The three giants of the Nets can definitely hit the O 'Brien Cup this season, without any loss.

There is a famous saying in the NBA business alliance: You can never lose money by changing small change into whole money. Although the Nets traded players such as Levaire and Allen for James Harden, the team completely raised the team's lower limit after getting James Harden. The most famous change for whole money in the league is the transaction between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Orleans Pelicans about Anthony Davis. After the Los Angeles Lakers got LeBron James, the first player in the league in the offseason, they actively sought a deal to get Anthony Davis.

Later, after constant discussions between the two teams, Ingram, Bauer and other players and draft picks in the Lakers' young corps were finally traded. You should know that these young players are the cornerstones of the Lakers' team building through the draft in recent years, and the Lakers have given up so many years of hard work in order to get Anthony Davis. As we all know, everything comes to him who waits. As the ultimate killer in the era of small ball, Anthony Davis and LeBron James successfully entered the finals last year and won the final championship trophy. Imagine that if LeBron James is partnered with these young players, it is impossible to accomplish this feat in the process of running in for a year, so the Lakers' gambling "change for whole money" is very bold and successful.

By the same token, although the Nets have paid a lot of excellent role players and extra luxury tax to get James Harden, if the three giants of the Nets can reach the finals in the first year of cooperation, it will not be a loss, and if they accidentally get the trophy of the finals, it will really make a fortune.

There is another reason why paying luxury tax in order to get Harden is not a loss, that is, James Harden can be the team brain and main attacker of the Nets. We have never questioned the strength of Kevin Durant and Carey Owen. After all, they are both people who have proved themselves on the finals stage, but their roles on the finals stage are not the main attacker, but the icing on the cake. Kevin Durant won the championship because the Splash Brothers controlled the audience, and Carey Owen won the championship because LeBron James controlled the audience.

The experience of winning the championship is similar to that of the above two teams. If the Brooklyn Nets want to go to the end of the playoff stage, one person must control the whole game, but Durant and Owen are not the best choices for the team. After James Harden joined us, he was fully qualified for this role. As the top five superstar in the league, James Harden's scoring ability is historical. Compared with his scoring, his passing is more superb, which is exactly what the Nets need. The Nets built by James Harden and Cai Chongxin can be said to be quite in tune, and the boss Cai Chongxin doesn't care about paying luxury tax for Harden.
