Legendary Basketball Tycoon

I haven’t heard Bruce speak for a long time, which means that Bruce is probably on the verge of anger. Also, if it’s the playoffs of previous years, the league has indeed been punished a bit harder. But who made the New York duo this series so fascinating. Concerned about it, even Hua Guo has dispatched a reporting team. There is no way the league has to kill a killer in order to maintain the positive influence of the NBA.

"Mr. President, can I ask why my team’s players are punished so severely?! According to the standard league penalties in the playoffs in previous years, the penalties will not exceed three times, right? I hope you can give me one. What?!" Bruce asked angrily.

In fact, Bruce thought about it before Stern made this call. No matter what the announcement of the league, it is definitely a fact and it can’t be changed. So instead of entangled with Kobe, they can reduce the number of bans. Let’s ask Stern for a good point. After all, if I’m caught by Stern when I don’t pay attention, I’ll have to peel off my skin if I don’t die. This time, Bruce saw that he could ask for Stern’s favor. hope.

"Bruce, you also know how important your game against the Knicks is in this round of the series. In other words, the attention is very high. If this is only a national attention, I will not be punished so severely, but China is there. I sent a reporting team to conduct live interviews and the like, what do you want me to do?!"

"The Bruce NBA needs the Chinese market, and the league needs to promote the NBA in the Chinese region as soon as possible, but you can’t let you Chinese people watch the NBA while watching the WBA. The NBA plays basketball instead of boxing. Hans and Nick The conflict that broke out in Sri Lanka is likely to have a bad influence on the Chinese side, so I will severely punish you and the Knicks."

"Bruce, I hope you can understand. You don't want your country to watch the NBA to be a farce, right?! Of course, my punishment is a bit heavy this time, but I don’t feel biased towards your team or the Knicks. , You can rest assured!" Stern explained to Bruce patiently.

In Stern’s view, the reason why Bruce was explained to Bruce was entirely based on the identity of Bruce Chinese. If he could take the line of China’s CCTV, he would not look at Bruce’s face a long time ago, but there is no way. Hua Guo definitely believes in Bruce himself more than a foreigner, so he has always adopted a gentle attitude towards Bruce Stern. As long as Bruce doesn’t cause trouble to him, he can turn a blind eye. One eye, who kept Bruce still holding that piece of fat to his mouth!

"Well, Mr. President, I accept your explanation, but the suspension of Kobe and Alonzo for multiple games has made the Han completely no hope of reaching the Eastern Finals?! What do you think I should do?!" Bruce The problem was returned to Stern.

Yes, the league banned Kobe and Mourning for so many games. Obviously considering that the Han Chinese are not capable of continuing to go on, you must give me a statement in the league. I admit that Kobe and Mourning did take their shots and were taken by the league. There is nothing wrong with penalizing a ban. If you do something wrong, you should be punished, but the league has penalized too much. Just imagine if Kobe and Mourning are suspended for fewer games, they can catch up with the Heat. If this is the case, the Hans may not have the chance to kill each other, but with the number of six games suspended, this affects the team's preparation and morale to a certain extent. You Stern can't justify it without a point.

That's what Bruce thinks anyway. He only thinks from the standpoint of Stern's urgent need to expand the NBA market in China. If you switch to the Asian American Blues, then you don't have the right to speak.

"Bruce, don't you think the Hans can make the Eastern Finals?!" Stern replied indifferently.

In Stern’s opinion, it’s pretty good that the Hans can pass the Knicks. The Knicks coach Van Gundy is a complete rookie, and he is not at the same level as the Heat’s coach Pat Riley, although Van Gundy is Pat Riley. Lee’s apprentice, but there is one thing Pat Riley said. If Pat Riley were still in the Knicks, the Hans would not even make it through the first round.

Stern still believes in the coaching ability of the famous coach Pat Riley. The Knicks are worse than the coach, and the Heat are on the contrary. The coach is really shivering on this lineup.

Of course, even if the Hans are full against the Heat, Stern doesn’t think it’s magical. After all, the Heat has gradually matured under the guidance of Pat Riley, and the overall strength of the Hans is still a bit weak. This round of the series is basically Can't beat the Heat.

"How do you know if you don't try?! Maybe there will be miracles!" Bruce is still very confident in his team.

After all, the Hans have basically had Bruce's own hands in drafts and trades in recent years, and his familiarity with the team is definitely not weaker than that of the team's general manager Mitch Kupchak.

Let’s not talk about the Han’s starting. The five starting players are all-star-level players now and in the future, plus a group of veterans with all-star abilities sitting on the bench, Bruce can’t think of the Hans losing to the Heat. Reason.

If you really want to compare with the Heat in 1V1, most of the players in the team's position are not at a loss, but at the level of the head coach, it is far worse. How is the little rookie Paul Westphal Pat? Riley's famous opponent too!

Of course, in addition to the Bulls in the East, Bruce admits that even his current Hans are not enough to challenge the Bulls, but if a few other playoff teams in the East are randomly drawn to compete, the Hans still have it. call taxi.

"Oh Bruce, it's a good thing to have confidence, but sometimes don't be blindly confident. To be honest, even if Kobe and they are not suspended, I am not optimistic that the Han people will pass the Heat." Stern said more confidently.

"Then it will be time to watch. I have confidence in my own team. Even without Kobe, I still believe that it is difficult for the Heat to sweep the Hans!"

It is estimated that Pat Riley wants to sweep the Han people. Even without Kobe and Mourning, with the existing team lineup, Bruce believes that there are still a dozen, unless the coach Paul Westphal It's a pig. It would be a big joke to let such a powerful team be swept by the Heat. By then, Bruce would squeeze Paul Westphal away without any pressure.

Originally, the team still had players like Garnett, Nash, Sam Perkins, Glenn Rice, Dale Curry, Mark Jackson, no matter how they won one or two games, they could still do it, right? .

"Okay, Bruce, I came to you this time not for this, but for another thing!" Stern was finally about to tell the purpose of his call.

Indeed, Stern’s call was not meant to explain to Bruce. He is such a terrifying dictator in the league who would certainly not compromise with any team’s boss, explaining that Stern never explained. What he has said and done is the imperial edict, and others cannot influence him nor change his decision.

And Bruce also really wanted to know what Stern was calling for. Now it seems that Stern must have asked for something else? !
