After a drunken slump, Chris Wallace left Boston with the Grizzlies the next day and returned to Memphis. Leon, on the other hand, returned home exhausted after sending Morey home, and when he entered the house, he saw Homonyss sleeping on the sofa wrapped in a blanket. Leon then remembered that last night was Chinese New Year's Eve, and he said that he wanted to accompany Holmenis at home for New Year's Eve, and Holmenis pushed down a friend's New Year's Eve party invitation for this.

Leon walked to the sofa apologetically and kissed Khomemenis on the forehead, Khomeenes, who was sleeping lightly, opened her eyes in a daze, and saw Leon's face first happy, then frowned, she covered her head with a blanket, and her whole body turned her back to Leon, obviously Khomeenez was a little angry. She was rarely angry with Leon, but last night Leon didn't get a single call back and ran out to drink until the next morning, and any girl would be angry, no matter how much she loved each other.

Leon also knew that what he was doing was wrong, but instead of grinding and soaking Khomeenes in front of the sofa, he endured his sleepiness and went to the kitchen to make a hearty breakfast for Khomeenez, fragrant eggs, hot milk, fresh vegetable salad, and just the right roasted turkey, and Leon brought them to the coffee table in front of the sofa and apologized to Khomeinith with the fragrance.

Ayatollah Khomeenez was waiting for Leon's apology, but he walked away without saying a word, and her heart was sour, thinking that she would never want to pay attention to this guy again in the past few days. But after a while, Leon was making a table of delicious food in the kitchen, and last night she didn't eat a bite to wait for Leon Holmenez, but she stubbornly refused to take the initiative to send Leon a message to ask him to come back, so she fell asleep on the sofa hungry. These scents couldn't help but seduce Khomeenes' stomach, and also made the little anger in Khomeenez's heart disappear.

She slipped up from the couch and was still wearing a light-colored nightdress. With his long legs bare, he feasted on breakfast on the coffee table. It was already below zero outside, but luckily the heating was on at home, otherwise Khomeenes would have froze on the couch. Leon, who had made breakfast, ate two bites by himself but felt that he had no appetite, and he had drunk too much wine last night, so he turned on the TV. Then he sat down on the couch, wrapped the blanket around him, and leaned back on Khomemenis and fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already noon, because the next game of the Celtics was not until January 3, so the whole team rested on the 1st and trained all day on the 2nd, so Leon didn't have to worry about the time. When he woke up, he found some turkey and salad on the table, as well as a glass of orange juice, and that Khamenes had gone to school. This is her last semester and she is preparing for her graduation defense.

This is Leon saw a note pressed under the orange juice cup, Leon picked it up and saw that it read, "Honey, pay attention to your body, it's not good for a coach to stay up late." Also, take a look at this morning's newspaper, there is some bad news for you. Leon put down the note, and saw a stack of newspapers that had just been delivered in the morning on the coffee table, and he quickly picked it up and glanced at it. Soon found news about Ayatollah Khomeinisse's disadvantage for him on the sports page, which read: "Celtic head coach Fox Leon is rumored to be a gambling addict. And he was once a violent person who went to prison. ”

Leon took a look at the report, and the main content was as the title said, saying that Leon had a gambling habit, and often accompanied Rodman to the casino during Rodman's time with the Celtics, and even after Rodman left, he accompanied Walker, Joe Johnson and others to the casinos in Connecticut to have fun. In the report, it was even dug up that Leon had been in the MCI correction center. It is said that Leon once hung out in a bar, drunk and injured people, and was eventually sent to prison. Now he shows people with a calm, gentlemanly face, and he doesn't know what kind of face is hidden behind it.

The first reaction of ordinary people when they see such a report is to be angry, and then they must ask the reporter for an explanation. But Leon was still calm, he put down the newspaper and began to think about it. He knew it was going to be a crisis for him, and if he didn't handle it well, he might lose his position as head coach, but he also knew that the more he faced the crisis, the calmer he became, just like when he crossed over to the bar to face the mafia.

As the saying goes, there are many people who are popular, and the foundation of his body is not clean, and now he has become a celebrity in Boston basketball, and such a black history will be dug up one day. Leon is now more concerned about the timing of these things being dug up. At this time, it is neither a critical period of the playoffs nor a fluctuating period for a change of coach, and the Celtics' record is steadily improving, so Leon first ruled out the possibility that the opponent would strike or that Angie wanted to get rid of his position - although Leon knew that Angie definitely wanted to get rid of his coaching position, but not now.

There is also a possibility that it is purely the malicious slander of the media to dig up gossip, which is not impossible, the media only wants eye-catching news, and they don't care what effect the news will have. If it weren't for last night's conversation with Wallace, Leon would have thought it was possible, but combined with his previous conjecture, Leon was already certain that someone must be behind the trick and wanted to sabotage the Boston Celtics' next trading operation, that is, Leon's plan to get Garnett.

If Leon's plan to get Garnett was far-sighted, then this obstruction force was unscrupulous and prepared for a rainy day, trying to make Garnett's visit to the Celts less likely by disturbing the Celtics. Leon knows that there are countless links of interest and contradictions behind the transaction of any superstar, and many lightning transactions that seem to be completed in an instant, and I don't know how many people are playing behind them.

Leon knew that he was weak and that the Celtics had not been popular in the trading market, so he used a method similar to "a pre-publicized murder" to let everyone know that he wanted to get the wolf king. The pressure is undoubtedly on Leon's side now, who has threatened to make the Celtics a championship contender as a bargaining chip to attract Garnett, and if the Celtics can't make a breakthrough and can only hover on the edge of the playoffs, then Garnett's chances of coming to the Celtics will be reduced.

So who wouldn't want Garnett to go to the Celtics? There is only one type of person, and that is the agent, because Garnett can get a super big contract in the Timberwolves, but not in the Celtics, for agents, they only want the player to get as big a contract as possible, so that he will draw more commissions, as for whether the player can win the championship, whether the too big contract hinders the development of the team, they don't care.

Leon is not ignorant of the agent world, on the contrary, he has known many agents during his time as a scout, but he knows some low-level small agents, serving some players on the edge of the NBA, taking a pitiful commission. He didn't have the opportunity to get to know the agents of big-name stars, such as Garnett's agent, Andy Miller.

Although Leon doesn't know Andy Miller, this guy is also well-known in the agent world, and there was a big news related to him last year, that is, he led 16 NBA players under his command to leave the original agent company and set up another mountain, which was sued by the original owner Eric Fleischer, for $4.6 million in damages.

These 16 players include Kevin Garnett, who will have an annual salary of 28 million next year, Miller's biggest golden job, if he is allowed to come to the Celtics, in the salary space, CBA terms and the team's championship requirements, it will be difficult for Garnett to get such a salary, how can Andy Miller let Garnett come here?

Leon sat on the sofa and thought for an hour, basically guessing the ins and outs, Andy Miller This guy he knows that he has always been known for being greedy and bold in the agent world, and 2002 was a turning point for the entire agent industry, the signing of new broadcast contracts, the overall rise of player salaries, so that many agents are pulling people to set up another mountain and prepare to do a big job, this year is also the year when the most new agencies in the sports industry are established.

Leon knew that his actions had touched someone's cake, but how could he easily bow his head and compromise? He immediately took out his phone and dialed Woj's number, ready to launch a counterattack. (To be continued.) )
