Chapter 1127 - New President! Lin Yi's comeback (the fifth of ten consecutive changes!) )
Tetum and Jaylon Dis flew back to New York from Tokyo overnight.
Because not long after Lin Yi was interviewed by ESPN, the NBA received cordial greetings from all sponsors around the world......
The refereeing incident of the East and West Finals has evolved into dissatisfaction and doubts from basketball fans around the world to the top management of the league.
When talking to Lin Yi back then, Tytum once said that Lin Yi's words were enough to affect the course of the NBA, but it was obvious that Tyam still underestimated Lin Yi's energy.
Especially after Lin Yi retired, Lin Mi suppressed the negative energy for a whole year.
Lin Yi didn't blame the alliance in the interview, but he succeeded in convincing people that he chose to retire because of Xiao Hua and the various injustices of the alliance.
I have to say that language is an art.
And Lin Yi artistically brought basketball lovers from all over the world to his side.
To put it bluntly, from the retirement speech to the interview not long ago, Lin Yi has never imposed ideas on fans, he just guides people to think for themselves through a few words.
Well, there are no black whistle miscalculations in the NBA, no human manipulation.
Do you believe this?
Well, long live the NBA, long live the league, long live Xiao Hua.
Hey, say that, do you believe it?
Don't be naïve,!
Reality is not a fairy tale, spotless, and when you really enter the big dye vat of society, you will know that if you are not cheap, others will kill you.
A good three views are a must, but just like what is said in the Jiupin Sesame Official, you have to be cheaper than him to deal with a slut, and you have to be better than him to deal with a corrupt official.
As a player, Lin Yi doesn't want to interfere in things that have nothing to do with the court, but the question is do you know that if you have to study the referee before a game starts, do you know how tiring the game is?
It's like don't blame Serie A's revenge on South Korean players back then, why don't you TM look at what the Italians experienced in the 02 World Cup?
And just when the negative reports and all kinds of negative public opinion completely broke the NBA's, Xiao Hua felt as if he had lost his soul and sat limply in his place.
This time, he didn't have a chance to play left and right.
This time, he didn't have a chance to be brilliant anymore.
Because on Twitter, more than 80% of NBA players are on the side of Durant and Davis.
On Twitter, countless fans are questioning the NBA's fairness, openness, and impartiality.
All the television, radio, and print media are overwhelmingly denouncing the NBA.
As the so-called wall fell down and everyone pushed it, Stern hugged the Chinese market opened up by the videotape, the NBA relied on the targeting of Anthony and the heavy punishment of Atay to build a good image, and everything that Stern carefully planned back then disappeared at this moment!
The league's bosses couldn't sit still, because sponsors from all over the world were greeting not only the NBA, but also their wallets.
Once the image of the NBA is completely annihilated, it is not only the NBA that is finished.
"I never dreamed that this earthquake would come so early." Jalendis, who was originally planning to try his courage, sighed after returning to New York.
"Adam was in such a hurry...... In fact, even if the ratings drop, it's okay, after all, didn't we go through all this when Michael retired? It's just that he got into a dead end, he wants to prove himself too much, he wants to tell everyone that the NBA's success in recent years is not because of Lin, but because of him, but he forgot that the president of the league should not be the protagonist in the first place, Jalen, have you ever seen that in David's time, the president of the league kept being talked about? The president of the alliance ran to the front of the stage to be a star? ”
"Because David knows better than anyone else, so what if everyone says it's Jordan who saved the NBA? Isn't that just a topic that is steering the NBA in a good direction? As the administrators of the league, the more transparent we are, the better, because only when we become transparent people, people's attention will be on the game and basketball itself! Tetum said with emotion.
"You're right, man, but what can we do now? Truth be told, it's all terrible! Jalendis said.
Soon, the league meeting took place after Tatum and Jalendis returned to New York, and it barely took time for the owners of the teams to reach an agreement with the league's top brass in the face of the imminent collapse of the league's reputation.
Adam Shaw must resign.
And you have to take the initiative to take responsibility.
The referees must also apologize, and the referees' union must come up with a solution to the misjudgment and introduce a referee misjudgment assessment system next season.
The league's top brass must do a crisis public relations as soon as possible to make the players understand that if the league is really finished, then there is no good fruit to eat.
Bring the players back to the same front and get through the difficulties together.
In addition, the meeting unanimously approved the motion for Tetem to temporarily assume the position of president of the alliance.
"I said guys, I don't think that's enough to save the current image that the league is about to collapse." Looking at the bigwigs in the conference room, Tatum said very seriously.
"However, this is the best way we can come up with at the moment, the pressure brought by public opinion this time is too great, and we are almost being condemned by the whole United States, oh no, the whole world!"
"No, I mean, we need some outside help to help us get the attention of the fans and the public opinion." Tetum said with a smile as he looked at the crowd.
"What's the solution?" Everyone looked at Tatum curiously.
"Don't forget, when Lin retired, he never said he wouldn't come back, and don't forget, he was only away from basketball for a year, and don't forget his influence on the NBA, on basketball, and most importantly, he wasn't even 28 years old." Tatum reminded the crowd.
"Don't think about it, Lin won't think about coming back anytime soon." Knicks owner Dolan said with an irritated expression.
You MM else, do you stinky SB know how much money Lin Yi lost after he retired? Every time I mention it, I get angry!
"yes...... James (Dolan) was right......"
"Everyone, the important thing is not whether Lin will come back, but that we need him to come back, just like we need Michael back back then, don't hesitate, you know Lin's energy better than me, and you also know how much money the sponsors from China give us every year, Lin comes back, it benefits all of us, this should be his time, why don't we want to admit this?"
"Just because he's Chinese? Do we have to be an American basketball player to be the first person in basketball history? It's true that we're a nation of basketball, but let's not forget that there's more to the United States than just basketball. However, the two recognized champions are from South America, Lin is popular and powerful, and has good character and deeds, why should we abandon such players? He is the treasure of the alliance and a cash cow for all of us! ”
Tetum's words quickly caused the conference room to fall into deep thought, and Dolan said angrily, "Look at how much money you have lost this year, you think Lin is helping me make money alone?" Don't forget, each of you has a share in the sponsorship from China! ”
"And it was originally said that the next broadcast agreement, Penguin will give $4 billion, but now? I also wondered, why did you support Adam so much before? Don't you see that? He was wrong from the beginning, and we are falling into the abyss with him! Dolan said angrily.
"Yes, that's right, look at what we people have become, all kinds of negative news, and even some fans greeted my family directly last night!" The Kings' boss said angrily.
"So, I'll go and ask Lin Yi to come back." Tetum said as he looked at a group of bosses who greeted Xiao Hua cordially.
"Wait, if I'm not mistaken, according to the regulations, it's been a year since Lin made a comeback this time, right? In other words, he can choose other teams, I understand that is fine, right? The owner of the Houston Mosaics had a flash of inspiration and smiled.
"Yes, that's right." Tetum nodded.
Now, the conference room is frying again.
Because if Lin Yi comes back, it seems to be ...... Hiss~~~! , this TM is too funny!
Dolan panicked suddenly, because Dolan found that it seemed that Lin Yi could indeed choose another team to come back.
Because according to the regulations, when Lin Yi retired that year, the Knicks and his contract had already ended, and he could not choose the Knicks after he retired for one year.......
Fuck your uncle, why did you forget this stubble.
So just when everyone was hotly discussing what chips to use to recruit Lin Yi, Dolan hurriedly sent Lin Yi N text messages in a row......
Well...... These text messages don't have much content.
The main ones are the following:
"Lin, have you had fun lately? I heard that you are planning to take your family on a trip? I have a newly bought private jet that you can use as much as you like, and if you like it, I'll give it to you. ”
"Also, I've recently bought a few new sports cars, but I'm too old to use them, why don't you drive them?"
"By the way, how did you think about the last time I discussed with you? Nicks shares, considered considering? ”
“......”
James licks hard Dolan.
"Labor and management don't believe it, you old people can still treat Lin like me!" Dolan thought to himself indignantly.
