Not long after Jessica left, a man who looked like an assistant knocked on the door and walked in. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info"Is the boss leaving now?" ”

"What's the latest news in the sports section?" The white man asked, leaning back on the couch.

"Los Angeles Clippers owner Don . Raheem Sterling and the team's No. 1 of the year, Tiger Sterling. Washington clashed in the locker room and was hidden by the Clippers. ”

"Newspapers!"

The assistant-like man, when he went out and came in again, brought a recent newspaper, put it in front of the man, and quietly stepped aside.

"Smack!" The cup in the man's hand was thrown to the ground, he was never a good-tempered person, and everyone around him knew that his good attitude towards Jessica did not mean that he was a person who could hold back his anger. After reading the newspaper description of the conflict, the man dropped the cup, then picked up a handkerchief and wiped his hands, threw away the handkerchief, tidied up his clothes, and walked out the door.

"Send someone to tell that Sterling that I want him to sell the Clippers to that Atlanta businessman within tomorrow." Only one sentence and the assistant standing on the side were left in the room.

On April 10, 1999, Sterling initialled an agreement with Stevens in his office to sell the team. After the signing, Stevens said directly to the Clippers manager standing next to Sterling: "Tiger. Washington is not for sale for the team, rejecting all trades about him, and waiting for the season to be over, the team is settled, and we will talk about it after the official signing. By the way, this is what was written in the agreement that was just initialed. Washington is traded, this deal is canceled, and you need to compensate us ten times the purchase price. ”

Raheem Sterling was already planning to agree to a deal for Tiger, but on his way to the team to discuss trade options, he was stopped and ordered to sell the team. He wanted to say no, but he didn't dare, the team was owned by him personally, that is, the president of the United States could not give an order to order him to sell the team, but as long as he wanted to live, live well in the United States, and live well in Los Angeles, he had to obey, the other party asked to complete the transaction before tomorrow, because he was in a hurry, Sterling was completely unprepared, so he didn't have time to look at the agreement to identify, and now when he heard Stevens's words, he immediately looked at the agreement, and sure enough, it was the same as what Stevens said, Now if he sells Tiger, he will have to pay $1 billion to the other party.

f… K, did all the people from Atlanta work against him? Wait, Atlanta? "You bought the Clippers for Tiger. Washington? Sterling suddenly remembered what Tiger represented in Atlanta and asked Stevens.

"Yes, there is no Tiger. Washington, the Clippers are worthless, what are we buying them for? Stevens didn't shy away from scoffing.

Sterling was angry at Stevens' taunts, but he didn't dare to attack, he didn't know what the relationship between the other party and the person who sent him the message, so he could only endure it. He also can't sell Tiger to vent, because the $1 billion compensation will break his family. He regrets it now, he regrets why he chose Tiger in the first place, he regrets why he didn't send it to this plague god after the incident, he didn't make much money, his reputation was completely stinky, and he might have offended the big guys, and now he can't do anything but endure it!

Tiger followed the team to end the away game and returned to Los Angeles, after the team disbanded, he returned home, opened the door and saw the brightly lit living room, Andy was actually there, stunned, Tiger thought in his heart, it seems that it is time to leave the Clippers, hey! It's good to leave! Don't know where it will be traded? I hope I can go to a team that has always been in pursuit.

After Jessica sat down with Tiger, she picked up the red wine on the table, held it up and said, "Today is a day worth celebrating, and it will be a memorable day in the future, Tiger would you like to make an exception and have a drink with us?" ”

"No, I'd better drink water." Tiger shook his head and refused.

"Stupid son, don't regret it, I won't give it to you if I want to drink it for a while." After Jessica glared at Tiger, she stood up and touched Andy and Stevens with the red wine, then took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and announced loudly: "I declare now, I'm Jessica. Washington becomes the new owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, and Tiger is coming to meet your new owner. ”

Tiger was confused by the sudden news, he looked at Jessica, turned around Andy and Stevens' faces again, and then sighed and said: "Mom, you don't have to be like this, in fact, I really figured it out, it was because I was stubborn before, maybe it was because I had a smooth life in growing up over the years, so I entered a dead end, these are the price of growth for me." ”

"Tiger, in fact, when you were in college, I thought about a team, but then I was too busy to implement it, recently I thought about it, you go to other teams, you will encounter all kinds of problems, health can not be guaranteed, many superstar players, until retirement can not get a championship ring, some are even accompanied by injuries, I know you can't do without basketball, go to other teams to play for others, it is better to form a team of your own, you remember to help me sell more tickets! Your mom and I don't make money-losing trades, you're my most proud investment, and now it's time to take money from your kid. Come on! I'm going to see the team build a dynasty. ”

"Mom! I ......"

"Haha! I'm very impressed! If you are moved, remember to listen to your mother and me in the future, I will wait for you to be a cow and a horse, and slowly return it to me, besides, didn't you tell me that the money is inexhaustible! Son, you don't know, now I have too much money, and my goal now is to spend money comfortably. ”

"Tiger, if you really want to thank Jessica, take the team to win a few more NBA championships, and let Jessica's hands be full of championship rings!." Stevens said with a smile.

Looking at everyone's smiling faces, Tiger felt that he was too hypocritical. So he stood up and said proudly: "Okay! Let's create an era together! A time that belongs to us! ”

"Eun, that's right! Tiger, Stevens and I don't know anything about the team, so we'll take care of the awards and the checks, and the team will be up to you. ”

"The Clippers have a lot of problems, and it's a rotten ship that's all rotten." Tiger sighed.

"Then cut down all the rotten, and we'll build a brand new ship." Jessica has never been an indecisive person, and she uses heavy codes in troubled times.

"But the manager of the Clippers is not easy to find, you have to be familiar with the teams and players in the league, and you have to be clear about the relationship between us to ensure that it does not disrupt our team building ideas." Tiger spread his hands and said helplessly.

Jessica pointed directly at Andy and said, "Looking for what?" Isn't it just sitting in front of you! ”
