Chapter 456: NBA, Welcome Back!

After the finals, the excited Michael Jordan immediately approached Du Kang to plan which team to come.

According to the previous rules of the NBA, Jordan, the owner, had to sell the team.

So, Jordan didn't think about a comeback at the Bobcats at all.

Besides, Jordan never felt that a team like the Bobcats could be worthy of Coach D.

Even if Coach D doesn't care about these things, he can't act like nothing has happened and get Coach D to the Bobcat, what is this?

Let Coach D work for himself?

So, from the beginning, Jordan didn't plan to meet Du Kang in the Bobcats, which was definitely unfair to Du Kang.

He couldn't go to the Lakers, Coach D chose to settle for him, he was very moved, but he definitely couldn't deceive Coach D to the Bobcat without any bottom line.

So, Jordan's idea is that the two of them want to make a comeback from a neutral place where neither the Lakers nor the Bobcats are located.

In the entire NBA, a total of 28 teams, except for the Lakers and Bobcats, seems like a lot, but there are actually not that many teams left for two.

First of all, the west is definitely not going to work.

Since he Qiao is trying to prove that he is no worse than the younger generation of Kobe Bryant and Maddie Yao Ming and others, then he can't go to the west.

The Western Conference Finals are definitely not worthy of the battlefield between him and Kobe Bryant and others.

They either don't have a big war, and if there is a big war, then the battlefield of the big war is in the finals, which is the most suitable for them.

Since the Lakers are in the West, they can only stay in the East.

So, instead of 28 teams being picked by them, this condition directly becomes 28-14, leaving only 14 teams.

At the same time, these 14 teams also need to do subtraction.

First of all, a team that is too strong will definitely not work.

For example, the Celtics and the Cavaliers, these two teams are too strong.

It's not that he Jordan doesn't want to be the second leader, or that Coach D always likes to lead weak teams, but that he Jordan needs a team that is not systematic, so that he can give full play to his greatest power, so that Coach D can scribble on a blank piece of paper and build his strongest Jordan.

The Celtic Magical Monty has its own system, which simply doesn't fit.

At the same time, the Cavaliers' Tyronn Lue and Kyrie Irving, as well as Oden's run-in and system, have also been established, and it is not appropriate for them to cross into it.

So, after these two subtractions are removed, there are actually only 12 teams available for them to choose from.

And these 12 teams, sometimes they have to be subtracted according to some situations.

For example, he Jordan Joe is definitely not going to the Pacers, to Reggie Miller's team.

At the same time, he Joe someone can't go to the Pistons, go to the teams of Isaiah Thomas and the Detroit Five Tigers.

Also, if he makes a comeback in the NBA, he will definitely not move the stage abroad, so there will be no atmosphere for a comeback at all, so neither can the Toronto Raptors.

In addition, the Wizards are definitely not good for well-known reasons.

So, minus three more teams, there are now eight teams left for them to choose from.

It seems that there are quite a few, but in fact, even these 8 still need to be subtracted.

For example, considering Coach D's feelings, the Knicks definitely can't go.

The Knicks and the Lakers are rivals, and Coach D goes to the Knicks, what's going on?

At the same time, considering the Lakers factor of Coach D, the Magic team must not go, although the Magic team is not worthy of being the Lakers' sworn enemy, but the relationship between the Magic team and the Lakers team is very special because of the two centers, Coach D went to the Magic, and Magic fans must not jump up and taunt Lakers fans, what does this make Lakers fans think?

In addition, considering Coach D's personal preferences, neither can the Bucks, who have been harassing Coach D for the Antetokounmpo affair and wanted to trade Antetokounmpo, and was angrily killed by Coach D.

Eight teams minus three more, and there are only five left.

Chicago Bulls, Miami Heat, Brooklyn Nets, Philadelphia 76ers and Atlanta Hawks.

Even, even these five teams are not exactly suitable.

For example, the Chicago Bulls, Jordan is definitely not willing to go back, and if there are other options, the Bulls will never be Jordan's first choice for a comeback.

As for the reason, it is still a well-known reason.

At the same time, the Nets are reluctant to go to either him or Coach D, the Nets' owner team is so unpleasant that no NBA professional would like the Nets' management, and neither he nor Coach D would want to work with a team that sold their futures only for Garnett and Pierce.

In the end, there are really only three places where he and Coach D can come back.

76ers, Heat and Hawks.

Of these three teams, which one is more suitable, is actually obvious.

Of course, the Heat is the most suitable.

Well, here is the most appropriate for the relative.

He Michael Jordan and Coach D teamed up, and their teams will inevitably become the hottest No. 1 IP in the NBA in the future, and not any team is worthy of operating this big IP.

Either you have a strong enough team operation team, or this team listens to Jordan and Coach D enough and trusts your own people enough, otherwise you will accidentally become the chicken feathers of the Wizards back then.

With that in mind, both the 76ers and the Hawks' management are almost meaningless, and to put it simply, they simply don't deserve to run a team with Coach D and Michael Jordan.

For these two teams, perhaps their current hierarchy is just trying to make the playoffs, or at most the Eastern Conference Finals.

Let them run and build a team that beats the Celtics and Cavaliers, and it has to beat the Celtics and Cavaliers to the Finals next season, do you think the management of the Hawks and 76ers can do it?

Even if they have this ambition, they don't have the ability.

In the end, they can only give everything to Coach D like the Wizards did back then, just like the Wizards gave everything to themselves back then.

However, in the end, the contradiction also appears here, Coach D has a stake in the Lakers, and he is the largest shareholder, the Lakers have Coach D who fully trusts Coach D and Coach D who fully trusts Buss Jr., do other teams have it?

Without Buss Jr., multiple Suns on one team would definitely have problems in the end.

Jordan didn't want to go through what happened to the Wizards again.

In the end, it seems that in the entire league, there is only one team suitable for him and Coach D to return, and this team is the Miami Heat.

Therefore, after Pat Riley knew about Du Kang and Jordan's agreement from a very insider place, he invited Jordan and Du Kang to the Heat on the night of the end of the Finals.

There is no need for Pat Riley to analyze anything for Ducom and Jordan, and smart people know which team is the most suitable.

The Heat have the best management, the most experienced and ambitious managers in the NBA, plus the capital and salary space that the Heat had when they sold James and Bosh in the first place, and handed these to Pat Riley to operate, and soon, the Heat will be able to build a very strong team that will be very suitable for the team.

Arguably, the Heat are definitely perfect, even more perfect than the Bobcats.

The Bobcats' team is their own team and can be completely trusted and completely obedient, however, the Bobcats' capital and chips are not as good as the Heat.

Therefore, Pat Riley's invitation to Dukang and Jordan did not refuse.

I'm here to hear what Pat Riley has to say.

Then, something very embarrassing happened.

Jordan and Ducon are secretly talking to Pat Riley about how Pat Riley will work when he comes to the Heat next season.

Pat Riley was painting them flatbread, and it was delicious, and they were having a good time.

At this time, David Stern got Jordan's secret phone call out of nowhere and called in.

Because this is a secret work call, they are all discussing this comeback work, Jordan is directly hands-free, and the calls are all out of work, but I didn't expect that this time, it was David Stern who called.

Then, Jordan went hands-free, and then, David Stern's voice embarrassed Jordan and embarrassed Pat Riley, who was still talking about the pie just now.

What does it mean that you can't listen to me at Pat Riley?

Did my Pat Riley have that bad rating in the NBA?

Or is that my Pat Riley so bad at your David Stern?

However, it is actually understandable, after all, David Stern's most hated Heat Big Three was built by him Pat Riley.

If James was brought bad by Danny Angie, then the person who completed the final kill on James was indeed him Pat Riley.

After all, Wade himself said that he actually only wanted to be in the Heat and Bosh two giants, and James insisted on adding it later.

From David Stern's point of view, how could it be that James himself asked to be added?

It must have been lured by him Pat Riley.

Therefore, hearing David Stern's rude words, Pat Riley smiled very gracefully after being slightly embarrassed, and did not continue to draw his own pie.

Because as a smart man, he knows very well that there is no way for him to do it against David Stern.

Now that David Stern is involved, it's impossible for Jordan and Coach D to come to the Heat.

After all, Coach D just said that he wants to give Jordan and Coach D a new privilege, that is, the owner can also come back to play, and Jordan can come back to the Hornets without having to sell the team.

Without a doubt, this one is the best choice for Jordan.

As for Coach D......

Leaving the Lakers to Jordan's home court is understandable.

After all, since you have left the Lakers, where not to go to the East?

As long as Jordan is sincere, as long as Jordan says a word, although this team is mine, but, now, he completely obeys Coach D's arrangement.

Just one sentence like this can completely dispel Coach D's concerns.

Pat Riley knows Jordan and he would certainly make such a commitment.

So, to hear David Stern say that the NBA is going to give Jordan and Coach D's team the green light, you know it's all over.

Even, he had no reason to refuse.

After all, Coach D's purpose is simply obvious.

When Jordan was asked to form the Bobcats in North Carolina, the heart of the ACC league in the hinterland of the NCAA league, it was to dig out the foundation of the NCAA.

The core of the NCAA is North Carolina, and if North Carolina is more obsessed with the NBA than the NCAA, then doesn't it prove that the NBA's influence is greater than that of the NCAA?

The truth is very simple.

But not in a year since Jordan took the Bobcats to North Carolina has he achieved anything like this.

Even, for the arrival of Jordan and Bobcats, the top management of the NCAA league even smiled slightly, not taking it seriously at all, or completely taking David Stern's careful thinking as a clown behavior.

A mere Bobcat trying to cut my NCAA vein?

How fragile am I in the NCAA to dominate American basketball for so many years?

Even if you move the Celtics and Lakers to North Carolina, you can't dig up my NCAA roots!

Ten years have passed, and in the end, it turns out that David Stern's decision was indeed very ugly.

Using Jordan to build a new team in North Carolina is indeed a small clown in the eyes of North Carolina, Duke and other North Carolina teams.

In the end, even the position of the Bobcats in the NBA became very embarrassing.

There is no news at all, and there is no status at all.

It's worse than a small team like the Thunder.

A small team like the Thunder has a fan base, as long as there are good young people, as long as they develop a sense of belonging, they can still get up.

But the bobcat can't develop a sense of belonging.

A sense of belonging is something that requires local fans and players to interact and feel loved for each other.

Sorry, the local Bobcat fans don't love the Bobcats, and naturally they don't love the Bobcats' young players that much.

Young players don't have such a sense of belonging, it's difficult to work hard for the team to give everything to play, and if you don't work so hard, you probably won't be able to redeem talent, and even if you redeem talent, you will end up losing elsewhere.

Staying in a place like Bobcat doesn't you have trouble with yourself?

Young people can't take this path because they can't cultivate a sense of belonging.

And the veteran is even more impassable.

What powerful veteran can't think of Bobcat so much?

In the end, the Bobcats were so embarrassed that they changed the name of the team back to the Hornets in order to find a sense of belonging with a small group of local fans.

Well, Bobcat feels that his fan base in North Carolina for ten years is not as good as that of the Hornets who have been gone for ten years, and the team has a higher sense of belonging to the Hornets than to the Bobcats.

The Bobcats changed their name to the Hornets to inherit the Hornets' meagre fan base and historical heritage in North Carolina.

It also has a bit of history with the Hornets, a bit of a fan base, and a little bit of belonging.

However, the change of the name of the Bobcat to the Hornet also means that David Stern's strategy back then was a complete failure and he completely became a clown.

Back then, the NCAA forced the Hornets away, and the Bobcats you came out of were going to work the NCAA, but in the end they became a little Hornet, just this bit of backbone? At this level, how did you dream that such a team could dig up my NCAA dragon vein, David Stern, did you drink too much, or did Lao Kuo go bad?

Public opinion in the NCAA has mocked David Stern and the NBA's decision on the Bobcats.

The formation of the Bobcats in North Carolina has also become a dark history for David Stern and the NBA.

Looking at the backs of Jordan and Dukang leaving, Pat Riley shook his head with a wry smile.

"I'm afraid David Stern didn't even think that he had a chance to fight back."

When the Bobcat changed its name in 2014, it was when David Stern was in power and was slapped hard.

The Bobcat's name change to Hornets is a slap in the face of David Stern, there is no need to doubt it.

The Hornets changed to Pelicans for a sense of belonging and deepened the connection with local fans.

But you bobcat, the same as the wasps?

The Hornets left North Carolina in the first place to survive.

And is the formation of the lynx to survive?

It's for the NBA to expand its territory!

Now, it's all back, everything David Stern wants, it's back.

"God helps the self-helper, ......"

The bitterness on Pat Riley's face vanished.

In recent years, the president's counterattack has been legendary and worthy of respect.

And......

"I don't hate the way the NBA went back to the way it used to be."

Seriously, he also hated Adam Shaw's NBA.

So......

"Welcome back, NBA."

After whispering, Pat Riley turned around with a smile and left opposite to Dukang and Jordan.
