Just when Tiger was immersed in the happiness of getting married, Tiger was called directly to the league headquarters by a phone call, David? Stern met with Tiger in his office.

See Tiger come in, David? Stern hurriedly got up and said, "Tiger hasn't seen you for a long time, how are you doing?" ”

Tiger smiled and said, "It's still the same old way, what's so good." ”

David? Stern also smiled and said: "Tiger, I heard that you are getting married, and it is said that your wedding date is the first home game of the Rockets." ”

Tiger nodded and said, "Yes, the first game of the Rockets' new home court, where I held my wedding is very memorable." ”

David? Stern lowered his head and thought for a moment and said, "In this way, I will let the organizing department of the game arrange the first game of the Rockets at home, what are you willing to do." ”

Tiger hurriedly said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Stern. ”

David? Stern smiled and patted Tiger and said, "Okay, Tiger, don't be so polite. If you hadn't been the first to support me when the league was suspended, I don't know how it would have ended. ”

Tiger said modestly: "That's what I should do, everything you do is for the development of the people of the alliance, and I respect your opinion very much." ”

David? Stern sighed and said: "It's not like that, if it weren't for your support, there would be so many bosses who would change their positions, how could it be so easy to solve the problem, when are you, my first supporter, your business, I know in my heart." Oops, look at my last name, come on, sit down, I'm old, I should let the guests sit down when I enter the door, Jessica, make us two cups of tea. ”

Talking, David? Stern sat Tiger down and ordered the secretary to serve tea.

After a while, the tea was served, and Tiger took a sip, let out a long breath and said, "Good tea, Mr. Stern invited me this time, not to invite me to tea." Tiger brought the conversation directly to the point.

David? Stern looked at the young man in front of him, in fact, he still admired it very much in his heart, he can achieve such great achievements in the financial world, and he can also achieve such great achievements in the basketball world, this person's life can be written into a book, written into a legend.

David? Stern pondered for a moment and said, "I want to play two preseason games in China, and then play two preseason games in Ben, what do you think?" ”

Tiger heard this, his heart moved, and he secretly thought: Now this old guy has begun to pay attention to China, has begun to notice the huge market of China and Asia, the old man is going to start to develop internationally, this is a good opportunity, and now the rocket has been in front of the whole league, as a pathfinder rocket is about to harvest.

Tiger listened to Stern's words, nodded and said: "I think it's okay, this year's Rockets have a Chinese champion, which can be counted as one, and the Chinese kid from the Mavericks is also very popular in China, which can be counted as one, this year the Hawks replaced the first Chinese player to land in the NBA, and it can also be counted as one, these teams have Chinese elements and Asian elements, and the others are looking for a more popular team, I don't know if Mr. Stern has any good candidates in his heart." ”

When Stern heard this, he smiled bitterly in his heart, and thought: You kid has pulled all your allies over, but what people say is still very reasonable, the rough idea of the calves and the eagle's bus have a huge influence in China and even Asia, if they are not allowed to go, then the effect of this preseason will be much smaller, hey, this kid's moves are really good.

Stern wanted to think about it, but he couldn't say it, so he could only say vaguely: "I'm not thinking about it now, do you have any suggestions, Tiger." ”

Tiger secretly rolled his eyes, and thought to himself: What the hell, the last choice to offend people was given to me, his grandfather's, you are too inauthentic, then you asked me to say it, then I'm welcome.

Tiger pretended to think for a while, and said: "Well, I think the Trail Blazers are good, the current batch of Trail Blazers players is really good, and there is also the top player Pippen during the Bulls period, as one of the top 50 superstars in the league, Pippen's appeal is still very good, what do you think, Mr. Stern." ”

Stern smacked his lips and thought in his heart: You kid is too cunning, and he brought all the clubs that he had friends with him at once, which is not obvious to tell all the teams in the league, you guys mix with me, it's good to mix with me. What should this kid do, this kid has already spit out, and if I can't say it, I'm offending Paul? Alan, that bastard boy.

At this moment, Stern was directly put in a dilemma.

Stern, who thought for a while, finally nodded and said: "Your suggestion is good, that is, the Rockets, Mavericks, Eagles and Trailblazers, let the Mavericks and Eagles go to Yanjing to play, the Rockets and the Trailblazers go to Shanghai to play, and let Tokyo and Osaka each have a game, do you think it's okay." ”

Tiger was a little confused, he really didn't expect Stern to agree to his request, what does this old boy mean, and Stern said the way of matching, he nodded and agreed without thinking about anything.

It's the same as playing that team, it's preseason anyway, but this old kid agreed to my suggestion, don't you know that this is a signal to all the teams in the league, a signal for people who are good for the Rockets.

Tiger left the Alliance headquarters in a bit of a daze, he had been thinking about it, and he still didn't know what Stern meant.

When Tiger got on his private jet and was on his way home, Tiger finally understood.

Tiger, who understands it, really admires the old guy's wrist.

Because, several teams that go to Asia with the Rockets are all Rockets' sworn friends and allies, so although other teams will have the idea that getting close to the Rockets will be beneficial, but more ideas, you Rockets don't pay attention to him, this is a great opportunity to promote himself, you and your allies have all these four positions, and no outsiders have left, isn't this an obvious matter of cutting off people's money, this kind of thing is to cause public outrage, I just thought about the team's own benefits, and didn't think about the disadvantages for myself.

Tiger sighed and thought to himself: This ginger is still old and spicy.

Although Tiger was remorseful, everything could not be changed, and Tiger did not think about anything else.

Immediately after returning to Houston, Tiger gave Paul ? Alan went to the phone and called Paul's phone, and it was noisy, and after Tiger shouted a few times, Paul found a quiet place to pick up the phone.

Tiger said angrily: "What are you kid doing, why are you so messy." ”

Paul smiled and said, "I don't know, what do I like best, now I know that there are 30 world-class models on my yacht, it's really enjoyable." ”

Tiger pouted on the other side of the phone and said, "Yes, alcohol, surname, and soft surname|drug|product, I know that there is nothing good about your kid, tell you good news or not." ”

Paul was a little surprised and said, "No, I'm very surprised that there is any good news coming out of your boy's mouth." ”

Tiger was angry with a black line and said: "When did I become a crow's mouth, you kid don't listen to it, this is definitely good news." ”

Paul pretended to be a little embarrassed and said, "Then you can say it." ”

Tiger said angrily: "You kid, listen to me, we have to play in China in this year's preseason." ”

Paul still looked lazy and said, "Isn't it just a preseason, wait, where do you say to play?" Paul, who didn't feel quite right, stood up on the other end of the phone, and his voice raised a lot.

This time, Tiger looked lazy, and Tiger smiled evilly and said, "How is it, boy, I know I'm in a hurry." ”

Paul hurriedly said, "Tiger, you don't lie to me. ”

Tiger was very dissatisfied and said, "What did I lie to you, it has a dime to do with me." ”

After confirming the news, and after the cause and effect, Paul laughed loudly: "Tiger really thank you, I didn't say anything between my brothers, but I actually gave my brother such a big bargain." ”

Tiger smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, give you a cheap beating, buddy has offended half of the teams in the league, you say, how can you kid compensate me." ”

Paul thought about it, and understood what was going on, Paul smiled and said: "Okay, brother, don't think about such a thing, anyway, it's their own bad luck, there is no Chinese element in their team, and I have a good brother like you, they can only watch, don't worry, I'll talk to them tomorrow, something is coming at me, if anyone dares to compete with the rocket, I will be the first to bite him to death." ”

Tiger continued to smile wryly without saying anything, then chatted with Paul for a while before hanging up.

And the pioneers on the other side, after receiving a call from Paul himself, all went into action. Although the personnel are assembled, they have not yet trained like the Rockets, and the current Trail Blazers players are only working on recovery. That's enough, though, as it's only a few pre-season games.

Immediately after Tiger to Steven? Belkin also went on a phone call, and Steven, who knew about it? Belkin was also a little crazy.

Being able to get a bus to go to China in a short time to promote itself is something that the Eagles Club did not expect, and it seems that it is still beneficial to get closer to the Rockets.

No, just a few days after the bus came, the eagles ushered in good news, which is really good.

Looking at the happy Eagles boss, all the staff of the Eagles were also very surprised that their boss was so happy today.

Looking back, Tiger dialed the phone number of the old Nelson again, and informed the news, the old Nelson was also happy, this neighbor of his own is really interesting, according to the information provided by the rocket, after the Mavericks intercepted Ginobili, they conducted an investigation, Ginobili's kind of talent is really not said, and holding Ginobili also belongs to Tiger's team, and the contract was completed smoothly.

The only issue that is giving Nelson Sr. a bit of a headache right now is the division of possession between Ginobili and Nash, which is a very important issue.

Now the old Nelson can only let Ginobili be the best sixth man, and now he can only do that, a scoring guard with strong attacking power needs the ball, and a player with strong assist ability also needs the ball.

However, all this is difficult to avoid the old Nelson of the 'mad scientist' city, and maybe it won't be long before he will solve this problem himself.

When he got the news that the Mavericks were about to go to China to play the preseason, Nelson Sr., who had been in the league for many years, understood the value and expressed his sincerest gratitude to Tiger.

In the following days, the league broke the news that these four teams were going to Asia for preseason games, which shocked the entire league, and the owners of all the teams were talking to Tiger on the phone, and while receiving a clear answer, their hearts were also full of resentment.

However, then several other teams that were going to China with the Rockets issued statements and expressed their support for the Rockets, with the Rockets, Mavericks, and Hawks several teams with Chinese players in private to bury the short-sightedness of other teams, you have the ability to find it yourself, and now it's time to complain, aren't you obviously red-eyed.

You don't deserve to go.
