Chapter One Hundred and Six: The Pearl Dusts

There was nothing wrong with the dashing test results.

It's a simple sprain, and it doesn't even constitute an injury, it's just a twist, it doesn't affect the movement, and you just need to rest for two days.

When Xiao Dash got the result, he had some regrets, he originally wanted to fight with Kobe Bryant for a while. He thinks that the relevant leaders of the basketball association are a little nervous and excessive.

But for the leadership of the basketball association, this is a very necessary concern. After all, Xiao Sao's health means their future political achievements, and only when Xiao Sa is in good health can they lead the Chinese team further. And the better the results of the Chinese team, the higher the likelihood that they will be promoted.

No official will be detached from his political achievements, so Xiao Wan has naturally been doubly cared for.

In the current land of China, not only the officials of the Basketball Association take good care of Xiao Sa, but the fans also regard Xiao Saga as a national hero. His popularity grew even more with his head-to-head fight with Kobe Bryant in the final game.

All of a sudden, his popularity even surpassed Yao Ming. Although he has not yet proven himself in the NBA, every fan knows that it is because of his joining that he led the Chinese team to win the unprecedented basketball silver medal, which is a historic record.

Moreover, in this Olympic Games, all the wonderful and exciting goals of the Chinese team were single-handedly arranged by Xiao Shao.

In comparison, Yao Ming's style of play is much more rigid. Even if he dunks vigorously, it's not much to watch, who made him grow so tall?

And the most important point that caused widespread dissemination was the face.

Although Xiao Chuan is not the kind of best handsome guy, his facial features are very three-dimensional, and he is a little elegant, coupled with the chic style of the ball, he suddenly attracted the average female pseudo-fan.

The women's ability to spread was unparalleled, and they soon became male gods by them. All of a sudden, Xiao Dash simply occupied every forum. Basketball forums are discussing his potential, while gossip forums are discussing his figure, his looks, and his girlfriend. After all, for the vast majority of girls, the appearance of chic undoubtedly satisfies their imagination of being rich and handsome.

In this world of looking at faces, Yao Ming is undoubtedly cruel. Maybe he will never be able to enjoy the love of so many female fans in his life.

Xiao Slang also took advantage of the domestic heat, went to participate in many business activities, and earned a lot of money.

This is the happiest thing in Xiao's life. In addition to looking forward to practice every day, the most important thing for him now is to check if the number in his bank account has increased.

After staying in China for a week, Xiao Sa originally planned to go to Lianhuatun to have a good look, so that those guys who once looked down on this orphan could see their current demeanor, but the time was urgent, so they could only dispel it, and wait until next year when they had time, and then come back.

Anyway, the original intention of playing basketball was to go back to his hometown to build a house and buy a car. Now that the money in his bank account is enough for him to buy the entire Lotus Tun, of course he wants to go back to the scenery, and the night walk in brocade clothes is not his style of doing things.

A week later, Xiao Sa flew back to the United States with Barbara and Li Chenglong. This trip to China is full of fame and fortune. not only became the new image spokesperson of Chinese basketball, but also made a lot of money. However, Xiao Swan kept all the money he earned in China in his domestic account, and he did not plan to spend it across borders, because he was reluctant to handle the fee.

While returning to Los Angeles in style.

Representatives of the Spurs have already visited the management of the Clippers with their full sincerity, and this time, the Spurs delegation is headed by Popovich. He plans to come and negotiate with Clippers executives in person.

His discussions with McDonleavy were relatively harmonious, and while there was no substantive agreement, Dunleavy was clearly interested in the chips Popovich had offered.

But when Clippers owner Donald Sterling joined in, it became a bull's head.

'Mr Sterling, I've taken a closer look at your squad this season and with Magetti gone, you're missing a sharp man in the front line. Although Shaw has performed well at the Olympics, it will take at least some time for him to adapt to the NBA. Manuginobili has proven himself in the NBA, and I think with him joining the Clippers, you're going to take a qualitative leap forward. So, I don't think you have any reason to refuse my suggestion. Popovich said very adequately.

"Manuginobili is Argentine, Argentina is a football country, and they don't have a lot of people who pay attention to basketball at all. So, it's impossible for him to bring us any commercial sponsorship. Shaw is different, he only needs a small salary, but he can bring a super high sponsorship contract. Sterling said for good reason, as he was unscrupulous, but in fact he had thrown Popovich's Tiyì into the Pacific Ocean. For him, the team's record is simply a floating cloud, and making money is king.

"Well, from a monetary point of view. If the Clippers have a good record, they can make the playoffs, and the playoff ticket is a big one. And the broadcast of TV stations will also increase, and the more broadcasts, the higher the income. I don't think we can focus on commercial sponsorship. We've got to take a long-term view, don't you want to overtake the Lakers as the No. 1 team in Los Angeles? Popovich said reasonably.

But Sterling and he are not from the same channel, and Donald Sterling was silent for a long time before he said: "Whether Ginobili can lead us to the playoffs is another uncertain matter. And even if he can lead us to the playoffs, we still won't be able to sell tickets to the Lakers. You ask me if I want to overtake the Lakers to become the No. 1 team in Los Angeles, and my answer is yes. But surpassing the Lakers should be done with the help of external forces, and China is the biggest external force. So... I'm going to say to this deal: NO! Donald Sterling's refusal was crisp and clean, without any dragging his feet.

After that, he was about to get up and leave.

At this time, Popovich hurriedly continued: "So, do you want to spend all your efforts to create a chic? ”

"Sorry, it's not my job. It's all up to the head coach, and I'm only in charge of the financial stuff. Sterling shrugged, apparently unconcerned about the matter.

"You just want to think of Xiao as your cash cow, right?" Popovich's tone was angry, he was not worth it, he felt that Xiao Xiao would definitely not be happy working under this kind of person, because no one paid attention to his skills and tactics, this guy talked about money as soon as he came up, and he talked about money from beginning to end.

"Yes, at least he's proven to have the potential to be a cash cow. I have no reason to give up on him. ”

"Then aren't you going to set up some tactics for him? Like making him the core of your reconstruction? ”

"As I said, it's none of mine."

"You're the boss, you should give some promises, and only if you speak, the coaching team will do that."

"No, I respect my coaching team." Sterling didn't let up at all.

Seeing this, Popovich was furious.

By this time, Sterling had already turned away.
