"Keith, you're not gone yet?" Tang Tian looked surprised.

"Well, Don, I have something to tell you." Jones looked outside the door before coming in to make sure there was no one, then closed the door and walked in and sat down.

"What's the matter?" Looking at Jones's mysterious appearance, Tang Tian's eyes were even more curious.

Speaking of which, Jones looked a little wrong before, but now it seems that he is not arguing with his wife as he suspected, and it should have something to do with him?

After so many years of being a head coach, Tang Tian is already very good at observing words and feelings.

"Remember when I told you last month about LeBron going to Cleveland?" Jones asked.

Tang Tian nodded, at that time, the Cavaliers were 0-2 behind the Thunder team and were forced into a desperate situation.

"LeBron should have already taken care of his Cleveland property, right?"

"No, no, the property in his name is still there." Jones continued.

"No?" Tang Tian frowned slightly, and then smiled, "Is Cleveland's real estate sluggish?" ”

Houses abroad are not always speculated like in China, there are ups and downs, James's real estate is big, and it is normal that he can't sell it for a while, just take the manor he bought, it has been hanging there for half a year before.

"No, he's not here for real estate at all." Jones continued.

Hearing this, Tang Tian's smile was put away.

It's not about going back to Cleveland for the property, and the issues here are more sensitive.

Cleveland, who ran away on his own, came back at that point in time, knowing that after being traded, James and his wife had moved directly to Phoenix and bought a new house there.

"Because the timing is more sensitive, I asked Dante to keep an eye on it, that kid used to be a paparazzi and knows those little ways very well."

Tang Tian was a little surprised, he didn't expect Dante to do this.

"LeBron only came to Cleveland for half a day, and he only went to a gambling house in Cleveland that day."

Tang Tian listened carefully, James deliberately went to Cleveland to gamble, although it was a little strange, but it would not make Jones react like this.

"Then Dante saw Gilbert and then entered the gambling house as well." Jones continued.

"Gilbert?!" Tang Tian's eyes froze.

"Yes, our big boss, I don't know what they communicated inside, but they shook hands before leaving." Jones then pulled a picture out of his pocket.

Dante deserves to have worked on the paparazzi, and although the photos are a little blurry, you can still see that Gilbert and James are shaking hands to say goodbye.

Both had smiles on their faces.

His breathing was a little heavy.

Trailing 2-0 is a situation that the Cavaliers have never experienced, and according to past statistical analysis, the Cavaliers have at least a 75% probability of being eliminated.

Gilbert was a little flustered and took the initiative to talk to James to discuss the possibility of returning to the Cavaliers, which is not impossible.

"This is the report of the team's financial income in recent seasons, the first year we came, the team's income minus player salaries and other expenses, the profit was 50 million US dollars, this is the second year, and it is also the year of the Big Three, the profit is 90 million, this is the third year, that is, the year of our three consecutive championships, the profit is 60 million." Jones continued.

After hearing this, Tang Tian felt not anger, but disappointment.

The commercial value that James can bring is far greater than that of the championship, plus the fact that the dynasty is likely to fail, and this photo can basically confirm this thing.

"These, I actually don't want to say, after all, the choice made in that situation is also human nature, businessmen always have to be prepared with both hands, but we are old friends who have known each other for many years, and I always feel that it is not worth it to watch you work so hard for the team after winning the championship." Jones said in a tangled voice.

He was actually really entangled, otherwise he would have said it directly, after all, he knew Tang Tian's character, and saying this meant that Tang Tian was likely to leave Cleveland.

"Keith, thank you, but it's best not to let anyone else know about these things." Tang Tian took a deep breath and said to Jones.

Jones nodded, knowing that this matter had a bit of a big impact on Tang Tian, so he didn't say anything, and then left the office.

Tang Tian glanced at the photo again, and then couldn't help but smile bitterly.

If you think about it, most businessmen will prepare for both situations in that situation, and most of the people who put all their eggs in one basket will not be able to become the boss in the end, in fact, this is understandable.

They may have been a superficial contact, like the kind of temptation to slip into.

Or if the heart is big enough, it's not really a big deal, after all, it didn't happen in the end.

It's just that this feeling of being one of the options, or the feeling of a spare tire, and even a feeling of betrayal, is really uncomfortable!

This is clearly that we can share prosperity and prosperity, but we can't share hardship!

Scold! Merchant!

After sitting in the office all night, in the end, Tang Tian still couldn't convince himself.

It didn't happen, but it was like a thorn in his throat.

Maybe it's time to think about your plans to become an NBA team owner.

Since you can't sway the merchant's thoughts, let him become a part of the merchant!

Jones's words are just one-sided words, but it is not difficult to verify these things, and the paparazzi sent by media like TMZ to track celebrities are carried out from time to time, and even government surveillance videos can be done with some money.

After everything was right, Tang Tian basically confirmed that what Jones said was true.

There is no reason for James to ask to come back after voluntarily leaving, especially when he was still the head coach of the Cavaliers, so it is basically certain that Gilbert took the initiative to find James.

It was confirmed that it was the truth, and Tang Tian did not hesitate any longer.

The next day, he went to find Gilbert.

He had to thank Jones for telling him at the end of his contract, and if he had told him a few years later, he would have to think about quitting and paying liquidated damages, which would have been much easier now.

An hour later, Tang Tian came out of Gilbert's manor, his expression much lighter.

He didn't use the evidence to confront Gilbert or ask Jones to testify or anything.

That's very boring, after experiencing Alexander's incident at the beginning, he doesn't want to leave the media with the image that he will always be at odds with his boss and have conflicts, so his reason is very simple.

The Cavaliers are pretty much the same with me and without me, and I need to try a new challenge.

Sounds capricious.

However, it is not an unacceptable reason.

After all, he is the godfather of the dynasty with 6 crowns in hand, and he has completely capricious capital.
