On May 26, Ayatollah Khomeenez arrived in New York with Leon again, but this time she arrived on her own flight, about an hour later than the Celts. This time it was a very different mood from the last time she came to New York, her heart was linked to Leon, and she experienced a 2-0 lead, and then capsized at home and was equalized, such a big ups and downs are difficult for anyone to bear. Even a calm, self-contained person like Leon showed irritability.

So Ayatollah Khomeenez originally wanted to come with the Celtic plane, but was rejected by Leon, saying that the Celtic players need to stop quietly and think.

Of course, Ayatollah Khomeiniz is not here just to watch the Celtics and Nets play, she has a more important job, which is to negotiate with Miller about the agent's investment and Garnett. A week ago, Andy Miller replied that he would talk about it halfway through the series, "If the Celtics can come back to New Jersey next week, it's not too late for us to talk about it then." ”

And after playing the first two games, Miller has to worry that the Celtics may not really be able to return to New Jersey, as they ended the series directly in Boston. Now, the situation is completely different, and the two teams seem to be on the same page, but the Nets have taken the initiative, they have regained the rhythm of the game, and they have regained home-court advantage. The Celtics had to come to New Jersey under tremendous pressure for the pivotal Battle of Kings Mountain.

Ayatollah Khomeiniz is also under pressure, and the situation in her talks with Miller was reversed by the Celtics' two-game losing streak at home before coming to New York, and Miller now wants to wait until the end of the series to discuss investment and Garnett.

Khomeenes, who just graduated from college this year, already has a large amount of money in hand, which is a promise made to Khomelemenis when she was in college, to establish a foundation for her, and after she graduates, use this fund to invest in the business he likes. Initially, Khomeenez wanted to pursue anthropological research, and wanted to invest the fund in sponsoring the study of Aztec and Mayan cultures.

But Leon's appearance eventually made her change her mind, and she decided to get into professional sports like her father and set her sights on a thriving sports agent career. As the contracts of professional players are getting bigger and bigger, the profit space of agents in them is gradually expanding, which is why there will be a group of agents who will come out to work alone this year, and at the same time, some giants in related industries are also ready to move.

In terms of business vision, Khamenes is as outstanding as his father Pagliuca, and of course, Khamenez's more important purpose is to help Leon, which is why she sought out Miller for cooperation opportunities.

The two agreed to reunite at the same hotel restaurant they had last met, at 7:30 p.m., exactly when the Celtics and Nets game began.

The second time they met, Miller had a smug smile on his face, and because of the Celtics' losing streak, he felt that the initiative in the negotiations was in his hands. He now knew that the Boston financier was Fox Leon's girlfriend and the daughter of the Celtics owner, and he was certainly willing to work with such a person, which would have great benefits in expanding his company's business.

But on Garnett's issue, Miller still has reservations, although his heart has been shaken a little, and it seems that it is not a particularly bad thing to let Garnett go to the Celtics, but a businessman's sense of smell tells him that he must be patient. Since we've been fighting with Fox Leon for so long because of this issue, what if we wait a while?

Knowing that Garnett's salary next season is a record 28 million, and his next contract will directly determine the earnings of Miller Economics, he must be cautious.

The two of them each ordered a few French dishes, foie gras, red wine, caviar, truffles, and it looked like a good date, but in fact the two were competing against each other. In Miller's opinion, the mastermind behind Khomeenez must be Fox Leon, the insidious and cunning guy who unleashes all his power to force Miller to accept the possibility of Garnett being sent to Boston.

But Miller was wrong, and Leon's mind was all about basketball at this time, and since entering the playoffs, he has ignored the team's recruitment for next season. The investment brokerage company is also the responsibility of Holmenez alone, and Miller doesn't even know that Holmenez is the real promoter of a series of news media events related to Leon before, and it is she who persuades Leon to create a "bad-boy" media image to boost the Celtics' basketball culture and atmosphere.

But while the Celtics are starting to coalesce, it has also made the Green Army as they have been in the past, and before the Eastern Conference Finals, fans in almost every U.S. state except Massachusetts wanted the Nets to win the series — with the exception of California, who supported the Los Angeles Lakers. Maybe this is the feeling of love and killing, now that the Lakers have been eliminated, let's let the old rival go further.

For more than an hour, Miller had been playing Tai Chi with Ayatollah until he received a text message, and Holmenes felt bad messages from between his eyebrows, and Miller seemed very happy, and even a little eyebrows fluttered. He put his phone back in his pocket and said to Ayatollah Khomeenez: "I'm really sorry, I think our talks need to be delayed, I just received the news that Paul Pierce injured his right leg during the game and has now left the pitch and returned to the dressing room, it looks like he can't come back." The Celtics are still two points behind the Nets. ”

Listening to Miller's words, Khomeenez's heart tightened, Pierce is the most important player for Celtic, and they don't even have a reliable substitute on the bench to replace him. Now that Celtic are in a critical situation and their core players are injured, their situation can be described as precarious. Khomemenes didn't know what kind of mood Leon would be in at this time, anxious, calm, or desperate.

But no matter how anxious she was, Khomeiniz still didn't change her face, which she learned from Leon, and she also believed in her heart that no matter how bad the situation was, Leon would definitely find a way to solve it, even if this game was lost, they still had a home game behind them, and there was a seventh. Thinking of this, Khomemenes calmed down a lot, she just shrugged her eyebrows and said, "It's nothing, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers." And you know, I'm not talking to you about the Celtics this season, but about them next season...... Take a long-term view. ”

"But if the Celtics don't make it to the Finals, do you think Garnett would want to go to Boston? Fox Leon had said that he would compete for Garnett with the title qualification. Miller replied.

"If Boston can't, can the Timberwolves? Hmph, they've all fallen in the first round for seven years in a row, and I'd have gone crazy if it had me. Khomemenis said.

Miller didn't answer him, he knew that there was no need to dwell on things like records, they weren't fans or team fans, they weren't going to fight over which team was better, he was talking about business, business-is-business, he wanted to get Khomele's investment, and he wanted to take the initiative on Garnett's issue.

Therefore, Miller was silent, this was drinking red wine, he had seen through it, Holmenes was not an ordinary businessman, half of her investment purpose was to make a profit, half for the Celts and her lover, in this case, she could not use a pure investment perspective to deal with her, but to use her Leon's feelings.

If the Celtics lose this series and Garnett is really willing to join the Celtics, then Garnett's or Miller's posture is completely different from the Celtics inviting Garnett to join after reaching the Finals. Miller would have Garnett come to Boston with a savior aura instead of being a small pawn manipulated by Fox Leon.

After another half hour, Miller received another text message, but this time he couldn't put a smile on his face. The text message was sent to him by one of his employees, who was watching the game live at the Continental Airlines Arena. The text message he sent was simple, one sentence, "Pierce is back, Arenas is lore." (To be continued.) )
