The Godfather of Basketball

The trade deadline fell, and the reinforcements of each team were completed one after another.

The Thunder was one of the few teams that did not trade on the trade deadline, but under Tang Tian's instruction, Jones and Granger, who was bought out by the 76ers, quickly got in touch, and the two sides signed a one-year contract.

Although Granger was suffering from injuries, the emaciated camel was bigger than a horse, so he still had a lot of fighting power.

In order to sign Granger, the Thunder cut James Ennis, and then determined the final playoff roster.

Hathaway and Swift's bellies are getting bigger and bigger, and the gender of the child is determined. Hathaway is pregnant with a boy, and Swift is pregnant with a girl. One boy and one girl, they can be regarded as twins.

Also confirmed is the expected date of delivery, both of which are around mid-July.

Pregnancy in October, the expected date of delivery, shows that both children are very healthy.

Especially for Swift's girl, after going through the dangers of early pregnancy, she can still have such an expected date of delivery, thanks to Tang Tian's company and care.

The games after the All-Star Game continued, and all the teams were making final preparations for the playoffs or poor performance.

The performance of the two teams is particularly interesting.

After the Clippers traded for Paul, their record soared rapidly. In the game, Griffin and Jordan flew all over the sky with Paul's assists. The team won the title of "Lob City" and its record climbed to third in the Western Conference step by step.

The Cavaliers were planning to have a bad draft, but Butler and Irving performed beyond expectations. Under the leadership of interim coach Cassell, they were still on the verge of the playoffs.

This change also made Tang Tian very interesting.

Two months later, the regular season of the 2013~2014 season finally came to an end.

The Pacers in the East won 56 wins and won the first place in the East. George has grown into a superstar star, and Stevens' growth has also allowed them to make a lot of money from the original deal with the Cavaliers.

It is worth mentioning that this is also the first time in five years that a division No. 1 win has been less than 60 games.

Ranked second is the Heat, they won 54 wins, although Wade's injury caused their record ups and downs, but as long as there is James, their competitiveness will not be weak.

Ranked third is the Raptors, who won 48 wins. With the growth of DeRozan, Lowry and Valanciunas, they have become a new force that cannot be ignored in the East.

Ranked fourth is the Bulls, with a record of 48 wins. Although Jimmy Butler is missing compared to his previous life, Rose has not been reimbursed for the same season as in his previous life. Although he played and stopped, he still brought the team to the first half. district.

Ranked fifth is the Wizards, who won 44 wins, Wall and Bill's double guns are full of vitality.

Ranked sixth is the Nets. They also have 44 wins, ranking sixth because of the relationship between wins and losses. This season, he pays the most luxury tax in the league.

The seventh and eighth teams are the Hornets and Eagles.

The Cavaliers fell short at the last moment and ranked ninth in the Eastern Conference. They are not as good as God, and their summer operations will face huge challenges.

In the west, the Thunder are the only ones out there, with a 67-win record that continues to dominate the league. They have home court advantage against all teams in the playoffs.

Ranked second in the West is the Spurs. They won 62 wins, and they are also the only team in the league with more than 60 wins. The excellent performances of new aids Green and Diaw this season, coupled with the growth of Leonard, made them a team in the playoffs. A force to be reckoned with.

The Clippers finally won 57 wins and ranked third. Paul's deal was seriously underestimated. After he deliberately reduced breakthroughs, the team played a more efficient offense. This deal also made the Clippers the biggest player in the Western Conference playoffs. spoiler.

Ranked fourth is the Trail Blazers. Aldridge and Lillard's combination of inside and outside has allowed the team to rise again.

The teams ranked fifth to eight are the Grizzlies, Warriors, Mavericks and Suns.

With the determination of the playoff rankings, each group matchup is also released. The Thunder will face the Suns led by Dragic and Bledsoe in the first round.

The Suns stumbled into the playoffs, and they were unlucky to meet the Thunder.

Tang Tian couldn't go to the scene because he had to take care of his two wives, but he still watched the broadcasts of the playoffs on TV.

Except for a few obviously stronger teams in the first round of this year, the opening games of the other teams were all kinds of upsets. It's a game on the next gram.

The Thunder easily passed the test. The four minors basically only played three quarters, and the 25-point victory fully reflected the strength of the two teams.

"It seems that you are about to lose your job." Hathaway and Tang Tian watched the game together and joked with a smile.

Tang Tian smiled and said nothing.

He hoped that the Thunder could win the championship so easily, but after so many years of playoffs, he knew that this was just the beginning, and the more difficult the part was, the later he played.

But the good thing is that he is completely a bystander now, so he doesn't have to worry about it like before.

The playoffs continued, and the first round was much more intense than expected.

There are 5 groups of games in the East and West that have reached the tiebreaker, including the top two teams in the division such as the Spurs and Pacers. Fortunately, they all survived the final tiebreaker.

The most embarrassing thing is the Nets. They suffered a three-pointer from Lowry in the tiebreaker and were unfortunately out.

After Prokhorov paid a lot of luxury taxes, let alone the championship, he couldn't even improve his record.

After the game, according to people familiar with the situation, the Russians were quite disappointed with the team's performance.

And more directly than the Russians is Levinson, the owner of the Eagles can't wait, and will sell the team in the summer on the grounds that he has a statement that discriminates against blacks in his email.

"Are we going to make a move?" Hathaway asked directly after seeing the news.

This year, apart from taking care of Hathaway and Swift, Tang Tian devoted all his energy to the company.

Also relying on some of his previous life's vision, the company's investment in many places has made a lot of gold and silver. Not only has the market value soared, but the liquidity that Tang Tian can provide has also increased.

For now, if he sells the shares of the Thunder and the Warriors, he will be able to withdraw more than 800 million at one time. If it is the Eagles, it is basically a full withdrawal.

"Let's see it in summer." Tang Tian didn't rush to make a decision.

Levinson would sell the team even if he would get himself notorious. The Clippers' sale of 2 billion would still be a big temptation for the owners of the teams.
