Arthur's high-profile hype really made the media in New York excited, for the media, the rich tearing each other apart, and scolding each other, is undoubtedly a huge gimmick, which can ensure the sales of newspapers, after all, ordinary people are very interested in it.

In particular, Arthur's identity as an English earl and Taylor Swift's boyfriend are all news points that people are curious about, not to mention the war with the local tyrants of the bear country, and the people of the United States collectively incarnated as melon-eating masses and began to move small benches to look lively.

And the Nets, which have become super bad teams, have become the focus of attention for a while because of the battle between Arthur and Rokholov.

As Arthur expected, as soon as his ridicule appeared in the newspaper, Rokhorov faced the media's provocation and boasted unabashedly, saying, "I just want to build a championship team, I set myself a five-year time limit, the Nets don't win the championship, I don't get married." ”

As for Arthur's response, he was even smarter to start from his own love for sports, saying that although he is not a professional athlete, he has been particularly fond of basketball since he was a child, and he can be said to be a hardcore basketball fan, playing the people-friendly card, and he himself knows that the background of the bear country is the biggest obstacle for him to enter the NBA league.

All over the United States, he is naturally suspicious of the bear country and the people from the bear country, and he knows this very well, the reason why he invested his money in the United States and opened up the American market is not without the idea of preventing something from happening.

It's just a pity that since he knows that his weakness is there, Arthur naturally won't let go of the opportunity to fall into the well, and through David Stern, Arthur got the phone number of other team owners in the NBA league.

“。。。 Mr. Gilbert, listen to what he said, he's going to build a superstar team, he's going to throw up the whole league when he joins, he's going to wave checks everywhere to buy superstar players, everybody knows that the NBA league is a business, and as long as the price is right, those superstars will shake and dance to the checks.

Aren't you worried that a lot of superstars will become free agents, including your team's James?"

Arthur lay on the couch, his feet on the coffee table, a stack of newspapers on his lap, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, holding his mobile phone with a smile, and alarmist Daniel Gilbert, the general manager of the Cleveland Cavaliers, on the other end of the phone.

Arthur knows that if you want to prevent Xiong Guohao from joining the alliance, the most important thing is to work hard from the internal meeting of the league, and if you want to convince these shrewd team owners, there is no point in making a fuss about Xiong Guohao's background, for them businessmen, nationality is not a problem at all, they think about whether the other party's joining will bring benefits to the alliance, and whether it will threaten themselves.

And Rokhorov wants to emulate his compatriot Abu to build a Premier League giant, playing Golden Yuan Sports, which is undoubtedly the most hated by all NBA team owners with superstar players.

In particular, the Cavaliers of the little emperor James, the Raptors of Bosh and the Heat of Wade are the most headaches, because these three All-Star players will soon usher in free status.

Not to mention that when they have a contract, these players can't face the big check YOUHUO, and now that they are back in free agency, it is even more conceivable that they will join the Nets for money.

This is undoubtedly the last thing these team owners want to see!

Therefore, Arthur first focused his PR goals on the Cavaliers, Raptors and Heat. And in fact, just as Arthur thought, in the face of James, the little emperor who has been clamoring for reinforcement and competing for the championship, and is about to run away if he doesn't strengthen, Danel Gilbert is very anxious and depressed.

Everyone knows that the reason why the Cleveland Cavaliers can have today's situation is all because of the league superstar LeBron James on the team, if he really jumps out of the contract, does not renew the contract with the Cavaliers, and leaves the Nets, then he will really be.

As for whether he would run away, Daniel had no doubts at all, as the English earl on the other end of the phone said, the alliance is a business, there is nothing for sale, loyalty at all.

In the face of large checks, coupled with the promise of superstar huddles, LeBron James, who is bent on winning the championship, has a great chance of joining.

"It's true that his addition will inevitably upset the economic balance of the league, but the arrogant idea of throwing money at a championship team is an act of ignorance that has not been nurtured by NBA culture. ”

Hearing Daniel's muffled words, the smile on Arthur's face became brighter and brighter, and he knew that the other party had been persuaded by him to begin to hate the unstable factor of Xiong Guohao.

"Hehe, in my opinion, in the NBA, with stars, with a reasonable lineup, it is natural to get good results. As long as you find a way to survive in the NBA and grasp the summer of each year, it is not out of reach for any team to bottom out.

If you blindly pile up superstars, you may be able to go crazy for a while, but it is by no means a long-term road, cultivating your own star and building a championship team around your own star is the king, thinking about other people's star and digging into the wall, I think that is the act of a thief.

I prefer to see the team go from the trough to the top in my own hands, and that's a sense of accomplishment and a sense of infinite glory!" Arthur said earnestly.

"Yes, I very much agree with Your Excellency's point of view, it seems that we are one kind of people, Your Excellency Bolin, rest assured, I will be on your side and welcome you to join the alliance!"

"Haha, thank you, if it's convenient, we can meet and have a good chat, you know, I don't have any friends in the United States... Arthur smiled and narrowed his eyes in invitation.

"Hehe, of course there is no problem, it's my honor, it just so happens that the NBA Draft in May is about to start, let's see you in New York!"

"Okay, see you in New York!" Arthur hung up with a big smile and laughed happily.

"Haha, with the first ally, will the second be far away?"

With that, Arthur continued to dial the CEO of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment, the owner of the Raptors.

"Hello, I'm Arthur Boleyn。。。。。。 ”

While Arthur began to pull allies around to prevent the Bears from joining the league, the current owner of New York's Urban Forest Group and the New Jersey Nets, Rabruce Ratner, was in a state of great depression.

Others are happy because there are two companies vying to buy, but he is the opposite, when he sees that the wind in the media is becoming more and more unfavorable to Xiong Tuhao, who is willing to increase the price, he is a little worried, even if he finally sells the team to Rokholov, he will not be able to pass the league's consent, in that case, he will really cry and faint in the toilet.

Thinking of Arthur's young face with an elegant smile, Labroules shook his head with a little cry and laughter, it was so good to toss, it had only been a few days, and things had become like this!

Nima, even the British side has begun to report on this matter, and what is even more speechless is that many British celebrities and politicians have stood up to speak, saying that they are very looking forward to the NBA league having a British home team.

The British Basketball Association even stood up and spoke out in support of the acquisition of Earl Arthur, saying that it would play an extremely huge role in promoting basketball in the United Kingdom.
