Chapter 1001 Tang Tian Takes Revenge on Society!
"Legalize spinach! What a shame Xiao Hua can imagine, is he going to sell it directly to the NBA?!"
"This is really scary, more scary than anything else. Just imagine, the betting company and the NBA have a cooperative relationship, which means they will directly determine the outcome based on the handicap!"
"Yes, gambling companies can avoid losses through alliances, and alliances also make a lot of money through gambling dividends!"
"Think about the horror of the league being dominated by referees before! This will only get worse after the so-called legalization of spinach!"
"This is businessman! Those bosses only want to distribute dividends and money. They will be happy when the NBA is completely destroyed by them!"
"This is probably the main reason why Xiao Hua can come back. The bosses don't care about your future, they only want money! And Xiao Hua can help them make all kinds of money!"
"This is our American tradition, just focus on the present and not the future! In fact, sometimes I envy the Chinese!"
"Poor us fans, we can only watch this happen. Who can come out and stop it!"
"And it's not just about legalizing spinach. Look at the shortened schedule! 58 games! The NBA's tradition is almost gone!"
"Why 58 games? Not 57 games or 59 games? Why?"
"Because there are 30 teams in the league and they play 2*29 twice every season, so there are 58 games!"
"I understand the truth, but why 58 games?"
"Damn it, I think you're trying to trick me into shooting someone!"
"Stop being a scumbag, Chairman, the league is going to be finished! We can't even save 82 games!"
"To be honest, if after Xiao Hua takes office, I would be quite happy to reduce the number of games before last season to 58 games, but the problem is that I would not want to lose one game like last season!"
"Agree! Taking into account player injuries, we can reduce the number of games a little, or even extend the season a little, so there are 24 fewer games! How will this make us fans live?"
"That's right, the NBA offseason is so long, it's completely feasible to extend the season! Don't tell me that players are tired. They work from 6 to 7 months a year, with an average annual salary of nearly 10 million, and have 3 to 4 months of rest every year. Such a job will tired?!"
"Actually, only superstars are playing in the offseason. Most NBA players are working hard on their contracts during the offseason. I also agree to extend the season!"
"The Mid-Season Championship? Why don't we have a spring, summer, autumn, and winter season like League of Legends? It would be great to have four championships a year!"
"Don is expected to break the King of the Ring individual championship record within three years! Σ(`д′*ノ)ノ"
"Speaking of Tang, I feel like the Pelicans are going to be doomed if Xiao Hua comes up, and the dynasty may be in trouble!"
"Yeah, Demps said he wouldn't reinforce before, but now that Xiao Hua comes up again, it's really difficult!"
"Hey, what a pity, we will never see a dynasty team again!"
…
In the manor in New Orleans, Dempsey met Tang Tian.
He relayed all the details that Benson told him about what happened in the league office to Tang Tian, verbatim.
After he finished speaking, although Tang Tian never spoke, he could clearly feel Tang Tian's anger.
The league bosses ignored the appeal of Tang Tian, the number one player in the league. If it were Jordan, he would probably be angry too.
"Dale, I'm ready to take revenge on society."
After a long time, Tang Tian's anger gradually calmed down and he said this.
……Revenge on society? !
This was the first time he heard this sentence from Tang Tian, but he still looked confused, not knowing what Tang Tian meant by taking revenge on society.
"Tell us about the progress of the transaction."
Tang Tian didn't say anything right away, but asked about Dempsey's transaction first.
"Um."
Demps didn't ask further questions. Tang Tian would definitely tell him anyway. He explained the situation of Irving, George, Butler and Hayward on the market.
Irving is now basically confirmed to be sent to the Bucks.
Except for the Spurs, all the teams Irving previously designated as next teams are big city teams.
The Cavaliers are also waiting for teams to compete for offers, but the Bucks' bargaining chips are much better than other teams.
Moreover, Antetokounmpo's private contact with Irving gradually changed Irving's mind.
In other words, this deal is actually waiting for official announcement.
However, George's situation has changed again.
Originally, the Pacers had decided to send George to the Thunder, but the Cavaliers joined in.
The Cavaliers have a trade with the Bucks, and its involvement means the Bucks are involved.
It is reported that the Cavaliers are very interested in George, and they are willing to provide high-quality chips or make a three-way trade with the Bucks.
Losing Irving and getting George will allow the Cavaliers to maintain a competitive advantage next season.
Such changes have also made George's next home confusing.
Then about Butler, the Rockets have a big lead and they are willing to send Capela, who performed well last season, in the trade.
Finally, it's Hayward, who is still very interested in joining the Pelicans.
Also interested is the Jazz, who are interested in acquiring Ariza or Bojan in previous trades.
Of course, if they can get Holiday, they are willing to pay some draft picks in return.
"I think Hayward's deal is highly feasible and very beneficial to us."
Although Tang Tian previously expressed his disinterest in signing Hayward, after analysis, only Hayward is reliable.
Holiday + Tang Tian + Hayward + Davis + Jokic.
This lineup is enough to cope with next season, even if Xiao Hua takes office and targets the Pelicans.
After all, the target is limited. If the strength is enough to crush it, any target will be like a mantis trying to control the enemy.
"No, that's not enough. You go and contact the Mavericks management. We want Butler."
Tang Tian opposed Dempsey's proposal.
Yes, of course you want the best and most suitable one!
Xiao Hua's comeback really angered him, and it no longer mattered whether he disliked the Big Three.
The owners of each team want to play, right?
Ignore what he said, right?
Really tough on him, right?
Okay, blow yourself up!
He wants to completely lose the suspense of next season and see what these bosses will do in the end after they lose their ratings and advertising dollars!
You must know that Xiao Hua's comeback has a one-year inspection period!
"But Team Rocket..."
"Put Nikolai in."
Tang Tian spoke directly.
"Nicholas?!"
Dempsey was surprised when he heard this.
Add Jokic to the mix, and indeed the Rockets' bargaining chip is gone.
But the problem is that Jokic's talent is so outstanding that it is not cost-effective to trade him for Butler!
Even if the transaction is successful in the end, with Butler coming and Jokic leaving, the improvement in team strength will be limited!
And this is really no more competitive than the previous lineup that got Hayward!
"Don't worry. Getting Butler is just the first step. There will be a second step and a third step. Other teams have no hope next season."
Tang Tian saw Dempsey's reaction and said calmly.
