The process is not the same as in the previous life, but the result is still the same.

The Spurs became the only team that won the championship without Tang Tian coaching since '07, and it was also the first championship team after Adam Shaw became president.

With the Spurs finally winning the championship, the 2013~2014 season came to an end.

But the league hasn't been as quiet as in previous years with the end of the season, and the Atlanta Hawks just completed a sale during the Finals.

Anthony Ressler, who had previously been involved in the Clippers' bid, and his consortium became the new owners of the Hawks with a $750 million bid.

Tang Tian knew about this result before the official announcement of the alliance, and it was his old general, Grant Hill, who also sent him a message from his old general, Hill, who was also a very important member of the Resler consortium.

The difference between the $750 million price and the $625 million valuation is not particularly large, and it is significantly lower than Levinson's psychological expectations.

The main reason for this is that there are not many people bidding for the Hawks, which is completely different from the scene that was rushed to buy the Clippers before.

With little competition, Ressler managed to take down the Eagles.

This is unexpected, but it makes sense.

After all, the Eagles are not comparable to the first-tier cities like Los Angeles, and the old TV deal is still in place, so there is limited room for growth.

Don't underestimate these, this is also an important reason why the market value of strong teams such as the Spurs and Cavaliers has not been able to rise, not to mention that the Hawks can't even count as strong teams.

The Hawks' relatively "low" trade was like a basin of cold water, which made some teams discourage the idea of selling their teams for the time being.

However, there is one person who still puts the team on the shelf for the first time.

Mikhail Prokhorov.

The Nets formed a Big 5 last season and paid the league's most $80 million in luxury tax, only to be eliminated in the first round, a result that finally made the Russians a little unbearable.

After accepting the Nets for 4 years, the record is sparse, and they are constantly losing money every year, just last year, they lost nearly $99 million in a year!

He announced, no more playing!

Unlike Levinson, however, this is a tentative approach to the market, and he will not end up selling if the price is not right.

This is a world away from Levinson's anxious appearance, after all, he is a world-class billionaire, and the Nets are part of his assets, but definitely not the main part.

The Nets were put on the shelves and instantly attracted the attention of a large number of consortiums.

The Nets are now one of the teams in New York that have relocated to Brooklyn, and the new arena, while still far from the Clippers, is definitely much more enticing than Atlanta.

After Tang Tian saw the news, he was also a little nervous.

The Nets are in the same gear as the Clippers in his consideration.

However, he did not attack immediately, and it was one thing to wait and see.

Billy King's deal that cost the Nets in last year's draft is over, and the Nets will not only have to pay a huge luxury tax for the next three to five years, but they will also lose all of their first-round picks for the next five years except for 2015.

Even if it was Tang Tian, it was not a matter of taking over and wanting to turn over all at once, this was definitely a super hell-level difficulty.

These situations are clear to everyone, otherwise the new arena has just been built, and Prokhorov would not be in a hurry to make a move.

And the Russian doesn't hold all the shares, he owns 80% of the team and 55% of the Barclays Center.

This time he also made it very clear, just selling the stake in the team.

These situations are mixed together, and although there are many people who are concerned, most of them are still waiting and watching.

And Tang Tian thought more than them and there were other aspects, his two wives were about to give birth.

On this day, Tang Tian was feeding his two wives chicken soup.

The due date was getting closer and closer, and he didn't dare to leave them for too much time now.

"Honey, this is the best chance, are you still hesitating?" Hathaway touched her big belly with her hand and couldn't help but speak.

"It's going to be a mess." Tang Tian smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Are you worried that you won't have time for us and our children?" Hathaway then asked.

Tang Tian nodded, this is actually a very important aspect, becoming the boss means that he must devote himself wholeheartedly, there must be less time to spend with his wife and children, not to mention anything else, maybe when they are confined, he can't take a break.

"Honey, you're going to stress us out a lot." Hathaway said suddenly.

Tang Tian was stunned for a moment.

"We don't want to be a burden to you, and if it makes you regret it for the rest of your life, we're really going to feel guilty for the rest of your life." Hathaway continued.

Swift nodded as well.

"Go ahead, we'll support you, and we might be able to let our kids play on your team in the future." Swift reached out and touched Hathaway's stomach and said with a smile.

"Go ahead, you have too many championship rings, and you need a new experience." Hathaway continued.

When Tang Tian heard this, he put down the chicken soup in his hand and reached out to hold the hands of his two wives.

The woman you picked yourself, there's nothing wrong with it.

Because there is only less than a week left before the draft of the new season, since Tang Tian has decided to buy the Nets, he did not hesitate anymore and contacted Boss Ma as soon as possible, if he can, he will take the Nets before the draft begins.

Tang Tian made a move, and other consortia did not hesitate any longer, and successively announced that they would join the bidding.

Unlike the Hawks at that time, Tang Tian's competitors this time are not few, and the consortium led by boxing champions Messerway and David Guffin, who have previously participated in the Nets competition, and the popular singer Madonna have all announced their participation.

In addition, the Warriors' second owner, Pete Guber, the consortium led by Stephen Marbury, and the local Newhouse family in New York have all shown interest in acquiring the Nets.

Predictably, this will be a very competitive bid.

The Nets are valued at $780 million, Prokhorov holds 80% of the shares, and the theoretical value is $624 million, but on the first day of the bidding, the price instantly exceeded $1 billion.

Backed by the big city of New York, like the original Clippers, the valuation has no reference meaning.

The fierce bidding also made the alliance excited, and Xiao Hua, the president of the alliance, even took the initiative to support the sale.

The Hawks' "low-priced" sale is not in line with the league's vision, and the Nets' bid is a reflection of the league's thriving landscape, and the league will certainly support it.

And this support allows the Nets' price to continue to rise.

After the second round of bidding, this 80% stake has become 1.2 billion, which is more than 1.5 billion when converted into the value of the Nets team, which is not far behind the previous Clippers.
