"Why don't you just call this clause 'Tiger Earmarked'? Everyone knows that he is the only one in the league who can buy an NBA team in full. ”

Bill Wharton complained on ESPN, even though the show was all about introducing this year's hot rookies.

But he still did not forget to fire at the alliance: "This is a blatant destruction of the existing system." ”

"David Stern simply broke through the bottom line of business in order to keep the little tiger!!"

Bill Wharton was furious.

But his views are not mainstream, and not many people actually think that this clause will hurt the NBA, on the contrary, the vast majority of people think it is a constructive proposal.

"If an All-Star has the ability to buy an NBA team on a full-scale basis, as long as the process is transparent, of course I'm in favor of it!" said Mavericks owner Cuban, "Of course, I'm definitely not going to be the one to sell the team." ”

"I support any All-Star buying NBA team operations entirely, whether that person is Tiger or not. Buss Jr. smiled in front of the camera and said, "Interestingly, if Tiger does buy a team, then what chips will he use to trade the Lakers for Tiger? Maybe... Maybe he'll play for the Lakers while commanding other teams remotely, who knows?"

Bass Jr.'s tone was light-hearted.

But no one could tell that he had really thought about it. Once Little Tiger does buy an NBA team, he will definitely be eager to start a trade...... While Little Tiger's salary is modest at all, he really doesn't want to add a full-guaranteed contract player to his roster who won't play...... And... Now once the Lakers get rid of the Spaniard in Memphis, it will inevitably trigger the luxury tax...... He didn't want to pay some extra money...... It would be best to be able to fire the tiger without offending the fans.

Little Bass's wishful thinking was loud.

Although the Black Mamba had made three transatlantic phone calls to him in one day, he still couldn't hold back and publicly released the above remarks in front of the camera.

"Why are you forcing the little tiger away?"

Black Mamba couldn't figure it out, he couldn't understand the brain circuit of little Bass: "He really thinks that Little Tiger will never return to the court?"

But now the situation is ...... Buss Jr. has already settled the dust on everything, as long as the trading window opens...... The little tiger's lineage will be swept away immediately.

In fact, Buss Jr. has already been in contact with San Antonio, the New York Knicks, and the Los Angeles Clippers about the Tigers: As long as the Lakers play well in the new season and fans forget the madness of last season's playoffs, a trade for the Tigers will happen quickly: if the Tigers can pass the medical report.

In the matter of eliminating the heroes, Little Bass is much more ruthless and decisive than Old Bass.

……

"The NBA actually wants us to spend hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars to buy an NBA team in full, are they crazy?"

After meeting Xiao Hua, Lin Wanwan told the little tiger in a tone of 'they must have all lost their minds and gone crazy': "Don't they know that every investment we make now can reap ten or even a hundred times the return?"

The little tiger lowered his head and took a sip of red wine, twisting his ankle, he felt good...... Without applying force, it is already able to rotate and stretch freely.

"Money is just used, isn't it?"

Little Tiger said lightly: "Go and ask the Los Angeles Clippers, the Satermento Kings and the Golden State Warriors." If any of these three teams are willing to sell, buy it!"

"The basketball business isn't that lucrative. Lin Wanwan reminded.

"Basketball is not a business. The little tiger stared at Lin Wanwan seriously: "Basketball is love!"

"Good. Lin Wanwan almost didn't hesitate: "I'll implement it right away." ”

"There's no rush. You can stretch the negotiation a little longer. I still need to give Bryant an explanation. Little Tiger said.

Lin Wanwan immediately understood.

Her mood became low.

She knew that Little Tiger had not given up on returning to the court, and although he could make more money outside of basketball, he was most concerned about the court.

"Can you promise me not to be so desperate in the future......"

Lin Wanwan's voice became smaller and smaller: "My father has been gone for two years, I am an orphan, and I don't want to lose my last support......"

The little tiger raised his head, Lin Wanwan's teary eyes were full of tears, and he was very moving.

The little tiger stretched out his long arms, pulled her over, and gave her a tight hug.

……

The results of the draft were quickly announced, and Greg Oden was no surprise to join the Rose Garden, although he made it clear in an interview: I will assist Brandon Roy with all my heart.

But Pritchard still emphasized in front of the camera: Greg will lead us into a new era!

He didn't see the 20+5+5 Brandon Roy as their hope for revival...... He put all his energy on Greg Oden.

At the same time, he was unsparing in stating: "Tiger should focus his energy on music, film, or investment." Actually, basketball wasn't for him, and forgive me for being so frank, his glass man attributes were already evident during the Portland era. ”

Pritchard's afterthought angered Tiger fans, Lakers fans, and some Portland fans.

This forced him to urgently explain five hours later that he was just an inappropriate expression of concern, and he hoped that the little tiger would be able to enjoy his wealth in good health.

The apology silenced the invective a bit.

Then... Pritchard disgusted the tiger cub in another way.

He directly bought out the contracts of Lamar Odom and Chris Mime...... These two are the chips that were traded with Little Tiger.

Pritchard told the world in this way: Little Tiger I gave to the Lakers for nothing, and he is useless to me!

And the Lakers quickly signed Lamar Odom on a three-year, $29 million contract.

At the same time, a three-way deal was announced...... Darius Myers was sent to the Sutmento Kings, Kwame Brown, Ratliff plus the '07 2-round draft rookie Gasol Jr. was sent to the Memphis Grizzlies in exchange for Pau Gasol and a $3 million trade amnesty.

Buss Jr. emptied the tiger's lineage, and at the same time seemed to echo Pritchard: the deal didn't happen at all.

Little Tiger's power was swept away...... During the whole process, the Lakers did not speak to him on the phone, let alone tell him why he did it...... They don't care about the feelings of the little tiger anymore, and the little tiger is no longer their long-term plan!

From a business point of view, Little Tiger has become their non-performing asset, and it is a non-performing asset that cannot be traded for the time being.

The Black Mamba ended his Asian tour early and rushed back to Los Angeles.

He met Tiger Cub in a Hollywood studio, and he organized a lot of words before meeting Tiger Cub.

He tried to communicate effectively with Little Tiger.

But Little Tiger just told him, "Do you think Golden State is a good place?"

"We're going to get a full purchase agreement, and Citibank will make a lump sum payment of $320 million for me on the basis of a mortgage. ”

The Black Mamba's eyes were full of despair, and it was the worst he could think of.

"I'll probably be back in November, during the All-Star break... I will personally operate on my trades. Little Tiger patted Black Mamba on the shoulder: "It's a great pity that I can't lift the championship trophy with you." ”

"The more regrettable thing is ...... In my career, the Lakers will never win a championship again. ”

Little Tiger's answer was very relaxed and decisive.

Before that, he even thought about buying the Lakers outright.

But after thinking about it, the price of the Lakers is too high, and there is no need for me to spend more money because of a momentary mood. And... Isn't sniping Lakers a better option?

When the Black Mamba heard the words of the little tiger, he understood everything.

He suddenly felt very annoyed, he had been hooking up with this guy since '05, when he was still studying at Stanford. Last year, I finally got what I wanted, and I finally saw the majestic competitive energy, but... The short-sighted management did such a stupid act...... They even thought Andrew Bynum could take the place of Little Tiger.

This is a fool's dream!

Now, there are rumors that the Lakers have formed a galaxy battleship...... Black Mamba, Little Shark, Odom plus Pau Gasol who was traded...... It looks really good.

But... Only the Black Mamba knew that once the tiger cub was released from the cage.

He will be a big problem for the Lakers, and with his ability, he can break into the playoffs at any time. And the Golden State Warriors originally had a bunch of bench bandits, plus mad scientist Nelson Sr., God knows what kind of chemistry would happen.

The most important thing is that they are in the same Pacific Division as the Lakers!

"Little Bus!"

The Black Mamba gritted his teeth and left the studio: "This self-righteous guy messed up Lao Tzu's dynasty!!"

However, at this time, Buss Jr. opened his long-cherished red wine, and he shared the table with West and Kupchak to celebrate, and they have seen a glorious future for the Lakers.

Eight consecutive championships of the dynasty?

Why not?

Bass Jr. and Kupchak clinked their glasses, and the two of them drank the wine excitedly, and they couldn't wait to start ruling the alliance.

And late that night, the Celtics finally dropped two bombshells after nearly a month of brewing: the Seattle SuperSonics, who had just won Kevin Durant, announced a rebuild, sending their core Ray Allen to Boston overnight.

Almost at the same time, Kevin Garnett announced that he was joining the Celtics: Boston had almost wiped out his family in order to get him, and several potential new stars went to Minnesota!

However, they didn't lose their core, Paul Pearce.

"A great era of turbulence has begun. ”

McBrin officially announced in his column: "The Celtics make up their Big Three, and the Los Angeles Lakers complete the assembly of the Galaxy Battleship. There's also the Cleveland, Orlando Magic, and the traditional Texas Big Three. The championship race for the new season will be fierce...... We're even going to put the defending champion Detroit Pistons in eighth place, and that's the brutal 07-08 season!!"

"No, no. You can never ignore the Phoenix Suns, who almost became regular season champions last year. ”

Reggie Miller added: "I wouldn't be surprised that any of these nine teams won the championship. But overall, the Lakers and Celtics have more hope. It reminds me of the not-so-distant eighties, of the pre-Jordan era of thousands of families!!"

"It's just...... Who's going to be the Michael Jordan of the new era? Who is going to be the superstar who is going to end the division? Is Portland's Greg Oden?"

The great era of turbulence has begun.

This offseason has been more lively than fans can imagine...... Especially after the sharks were traded by Pat Riley from the seaside cities of the East Coast to Phoenix in the Northwest Desert.

Everyone has a surging imagination and yearning for the upcoming new season.

15 July 2007.

After finishing the concert in Los Angeles, Little Tiger drove to the Bay Area. He appeared at the Golden State Warriors' equity transfer press conference...... Previously, the news was kept strictly confidential.

When the people of Golden State learned that the new owner of the Warriors turned out to be Little Tiger, the whole city erupted in an amazing wave!!

It's finally back!!

Our Northern California tiger cub is finally back home. Finally, I don't have to pinch my nose and endure the hatred to watch the Southern California team Lakers play!!

Little Tiger has always been the pride of the Bay Area people, and he is hailed as the greatest point guard Northern California has ever seen, despite the fact that he is Chinese.

But no one will forget that this guy attended high school in the Bay Area for four years and then led Stanford to the national championship.

"It's great to have this great team of Golden State Warriors!"

After signing his name, Little Tiger told the media below very calmly.

Since the organizers did not tell reporters... Little Tiger is the new boss, so the media battle below looks a little shabby.

But that's okay...... These guys quickly made the news a super-bomb that shook the United States!

The NBA's previous blockbuster trade shook the hearts of every fan.

But now... Little Tiger subverted their imagination in another way: he actually became the owner of an NBA team.

When the outside world blew up.

Little Tiger approached Nelson Sr. and gave his first order as owner: "When the All-Star Game trade window opens this season, I'm going to see Kwame Brown, I'm going to see Darius Myers, I'm going to see Zach Randolph." ”

The Lakers cleaned up his lineage, and the Trail Blazers sold off his old division, a way they used to ignore the Tigers' efforts.

So now, the little tiger wants to use his own strength to slap back one by one.

Little Tiger has never been a tolerant and generous person.

He has never forgiven a single betrayer!

……

"I think it's time for us to talk!" Bass finally dialed Tiger's phone.

"What qualifications do you have to talk to me?" the little tiger sneered and hung up the phone.

In his eyes, there are only two people the Lakers can talk to him on an equal footing. Either that... The heart of their house, Kobe Bryant. This is reciprocal as a player.

Either their boss, Sir Bass. This is reciprocal as a boss.

Little Bass?

Bah!!

Little Bas spat hard, and he angrily told Kupchak next to him: "Once he passes the medical examination, we will immediately send him to the cold Milwaukee ......"

"Uh... He has a veto on deals. "If we trade him, we will have to pay an additional 20 percent more than the total amount of the contract for breach of contract," Kupchak said. ”

Little Bas is sensitive to money...... After eating the big contracts of Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol in a row, they have exceeded the luxury line by nearly 10 million. If he spends more money at this time, his father will definitely put his head in the toilet...... And his sister Jeanie Bass must have been happy to see it.

"And... We have now gone down in season ticket prices. "We underestimated the fanaticism of the fans for the little tigers. ”

"Season ticket prices have dropped? Is there any mistake? We've got Gasol and Odom and Fisher back!!"

"In fact, since the Golden State changed hands, our sales have dropped dramatically, and we've made more than five ad sponsorships. They're all waving checks and heading to Northern California......," Kupchak said helplessly.

Capitalists are profit-seeking.

They can smell money in the little tiger, and naturally they will not stay in Los Angeles for long.

This is the same reason as Little Bass's ruthless cleaning up of Little Tiger's old department...... Get rid of bad assets!

Bang!

In a fit of rage, Boas smashed his wine glass on the floor.

"So, I can't touch him at all, can I?"

He glared fiercely at Kupchak.

"We can skip his third-year contract and make him a full free agent!" Kupchak replied cautiously.

“F--K！！！”

Little Bus's roar fills the office!!
