…........

Shen Hao said:"Since you are optimistic about the NBA league, then buy a basketball team. How about giving you three days?"

Willard Mitt Romney was stunned for a moment. He just said it and did not expect Shen Hao to let him go directly. He buys teams.

Willard Mitt Romney still likes playing basketball.

So this focuses on these events.

After decades of development, the NBA has become more and more influential, and its influence in the United States is also growing.

Although it is not universal in the world, it will be possible with the development of time.

Since Shen Hao asked him to choose to buy a basketball team, he was still very happy.

After leaving the villa, Willard Mitt Romney collected information non-stop.

The closest one is the Los Angeles Lakers. Last year's 82-83 season performance was also good, ranking first in the Western Conference.

Another team is the Clippers.

Compared with the Los Angeles Lakers, the Clippers were founded in 70 years, and their performance can only be considered average.

After entering the investigation of a professional team, Willard Mitt Romney soon obtained all the data.

It can be said that the San Diego Clippers are currently an almost forgotten team. The team’s attendance rate is only one of the top 4 universities in college basketball, UCLA (4,500 people). The ticket price has dropped to less than 10 US dollars. Nobody cares.

Owner Ilf Levin's background as a jeweler was destined not to be able to control this NBA team. From Buffalo in the northeast to San Diego in the southwest, the only constant was the box office decline and constant losses year after year.

As Bill Walton ages, the Clippers have fallen into an abyss.

The value of the Clippers has also dropped from US$60 million in the 1980s to more than US$20 million today.

According to Willard Mitt Romney's budget, it is estimated that he can win around 28 million.

But the Lakers are relatively expensive, with a market value of 0.9-110 million US dollars.

The boss may not sell it yet.

After watching it for two days, I looked for other teams for comparison.

About a week later, Willard Mitt Romney handed it to Shen Hao with more than a dozen team information.

There are Lakers, Bulls, Suns, Celtics, Warriors, Rockets, etc.

After reading this information, Shen Hao's first sight was the Lakers and Bulls.

Watching the Bulls reminds me of Jordan, and the Lakers think of O'Neal and Kobe.

Shen Hao himself rarely plays basketball.

In my memory, it was because everyone around me was talking about Jordan that I started to get involved in basketball.

The most popular thing seems to be that I started watching the NBA because Yao Ming joined the NBA.

Nothing else impressed me.

Thinking of this, Shen Hao said:"Just the Bulls or the Lakers. Oh, by the way, how about the Rockets?"

Anyway, Shen Hao is not short of money, so he will definitely buy something similar.

Willard Mitt Romney said awkwardly:"The Rockets won the No. 1 pick in 83-84 for two consecutive seasons."

Shen Hao was stunned:"What do you mean?"

Willard Mitt Romney explained:"One season's results The worst team will have priority in getting the No. 1 pick in the new season.

A No. 1 pick in the draft will have to play with the worst results for two years.

Boss, this is actually the top priority of the NBA draft system. If the No. 1 pick every year is It is evenly distributed, so the strong team will continue to be strong.

If a team dominates the league for 20 consecutive years, what will be the result? The league championship will be directly determined, and there will be nothing in the game. It makes sense to watch. Basketball games are originally about watching passionate people. If the results are known, what else is there to watch?

Therefore, in order to balance the strength of each team and prevent too many outstanding stars from joining together, the league has draft lottery tickets. The rankings start with the last one in terms of record."

Shen Hao nodded and remembered that when Jordan participated in the draft in 1984, it seemed that he was not the No. 1 pick. It seemed that the Houston Rockets selected Akeem Olajuwon (later changed to Hakeem Olajuwon). Rajuwan) gave up Jordan and was acquired by the Bulls. Arrow selection

"Which team do you think is good?"

"In terms of market value, the Lakers are good, but in terms of price, they are the Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Clippers and Chicago Bulls. These three teams have not performed well in recent years."

"Just bull," Shen Hao said:

""It's the boss."

With Shen Hao's decision, Willard Mitt Romney no longer hesitated and started negotiating with Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf.

Jerry Reinsdorf was originally unwilling to sell the team. , but helplessly, Shen Hao gave too much.

At a premium of 30%, he bought the team for US$60 million.

When the Bulls players learned that the owner of the team was Shen Hao, everyone was very excited. Happy.

NBA is a business league team, and all it needs is financial support.

Shen Hao has nothing but money. With such a boss, wouldn't it mean that he can have whatever lineup he wants.

After the team acquisition, Shen Hao did not choose to change his name, but continued to use the name Bulls.

June 19, 1984.

NBA draft.

Willard Mitt Romney sat at the scene and watched the players carefully.

Because he was too famous Big, Shen Hao did not choose to come to the scene, but conducted remote control.

He specifically told Willard Mitt Romney to choose Jordan. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Among these players, Michael Jordan has already It is known that general managers from NBA teams have stepped on the door of the University of North Carolina, and his teammate Sam Perkins has also been favored.

Barkley is also a player who has attracted much attention, and Olajuwon because He is a Nigerian, so most Americans don't know him, but this does not prevent him from being coveted in the NBA.

Because Olajuwon is a big man.

In 1984, the draft was still based on luck, because many teams did not understand them at all. For the players they want to select, they lack funds and do not have scouts all over the place.

In terms of fame, Olajuwon is definitely more famous than Jordan. He is an inside dominance integrating offense and defense.[]

Willard Mitt Romney's first choice, but Olajuwon will definitely be selected by the Rockets with the No. 1 pick, so there is no chance.

Charles Barkley looks good to him, too.

However, it was difficult for him to disobey Shen Hao's orders.

Soon the draft began, and Jordan easily entered the first tier.

Sure enough, Olajuwon was selected with the No. 1 pick. University of Houston

No. 2. With the second pick, Sam Bowie was selected by the Portland Trail Blazers and the University of Kentucky..The third overall pick, Michael Jordan, Chicago Bulls, University of North Carolina,

Shen Hao, who was watching the live broadcast, couldn't help laughing when he saw this.

The No. 1 pick, Olajuwon, is not bad, he has this strength.

But the second one, Bowie, is a huge loss.......

Bowie's only career honor was to be named to the 1985 All-Rookie First Team. This also made many people think that it was the biggest joke in NBA history that the Trail Blazers drafted Bowie with the second pick and missed out on Jordan..

In his 10-year career, Bowie only scored 5,564, 1,075 assists and 3,845 rebounds.

Seeing the Bulls successfully win Jordan, Shen Hao was in a very good mood.

It feels great to have the God of Basketball flourish in my own hands.

This reminded Shen Hao that in later generations, as James officially ranked first in scoring in NBA history, the topic of who is the first person in NBA history was discussed again.

In fact, this topic has long been an old joke. From Kobe to James, this topic has never stopped. Moreover, since James first entered the league, he has been hailed as the man who can surpass Jordan.

In Shen Hao's view, it is really James himself. His face was filled with gold.

Jordan's historical status is recognized all over the world and is beyond doubt. He has won six championships, including two and three consecutive championships.

This is really awesome.

The most important thing is that there are still two years left to play baseball.

After playing baseball, he won another three consecutive championships.

Michael Jordan has long been recognized by the world as the God of Basketball and is also the most influential figure in the sports world.

If the NBA is American, then the emergence of Jordan has brought the NBA to the world, entered the eyes of countless fans, and made countless people fall in love with the sport of basketball.

Jordan's every move can even influence the stock market movements on Wall Street.

Jordan's first retirement affected 2% of the GDP of the United States, and his return to the NBA 18 months later made the entire United States excited. This is something that no future basketball superstar can do.

In terms of popularity, it can be said that Jordan has a unique ability to"break the circle". In the era before the Internet, Jordan was still known to all women and children and became a household name.

Regardless of whether you are a fan or not, whether you know basketball or not, even older adults know that there is a Michael Jordan who is great at basketball in the United States.

It can be seen that Jordan's peak has created a popularity of 1.4.

Shen Hao also heard about Jordan from around him since he was a child, and then he learned about the NBA.

Shen Hao doesn't like basketball very much, but Jordan still has a great influence on Shen Hao.

As the draft ended, Shen Hao was in a good mood.

He immediately called Willard Mitt Romney and asked him to bring Jordan to Los Angeles.

Michael Jackson and Madonna, who were guests in the villa, looked at Shen Hao with a somewhat puzzled look.

He is just a basketball player, is he worthy of being received by Shen Hao in person?

"Shen, is this Jordan great?

Shen Hao said:"Of course.""

"I think it's just average. If he's really good, why is he the third pick?

It’s really amazing. He should have been selected by the Houston Rockets with the No. 1 pick." Madonna didn’t believe it; in her opinion, performance means that if he is not the first overall pick, he is definitely not the most powerful player.

Regarding Madonna’s thoughts , Shen Hao didn’t explain. I’m afraid everyone thought so, but during the competition, they knew the truth.

"Let's wait and see"

"OK, I also want to see when you make mistakes," Madonna said proudly;
