Reborn NBA Gao Fushuai

In the first wave of tests for the Lakers in the new season, they ran into the formidable opponent of the Dallas Mavericks head-on, which was obviously a bit severe.

Although Nash's departure will definitely reduce the overall strength of the Dallas Mavericks, it is obviously not comparable to the current chaotic Lakers.

The Dallas Mavericks have achieved a record of four wins and two losses in the six games that have ended before. Among the many tyrants who aspire to win the championship, their results are not outstanding, but they have watched the last two games, against the Miami Heat and Anyone who played the Detroit Pistons can easily feel that in the new season, the Mavericks, who have just undergone major surgery, have completed the run-in, and the old Nelson has developed a new set of tactics around the team's new core Nowitzki.

Especially in the last game against the Detroit Pistons, which is known as the league's best defense, the Mavericks scored 105 points. The team boss Dirk Nowitzki performed very well, scoring a game-high 37 points.

It's no wonder that Cuban, the character boss of the Mavericks, couldn't wait to announce at the beginning of the regular season: "We have only one goal this season, and that is the final championship trophy!"

Although the bosses of the NBA are in control of the game, for the fans, these high-ranking bosses are always a bit mysterious. Even if they come to watch the game in person, they are all sitting in the VIP box, but Cuban is different. The reason why Vujacic knows him well is entirely because this super rich man is a basketball fanatic with a full personality. He has been an avid basketball fan since he was a child, and he often paid the price to realize his dreams. For example, when he was 12 When he was [-] years old, in order to buy a pair of basketball shoes he wanted, he used to save money by selling garbage bags for several weeks.During this experience, Cuban's passion for basketball eventually created commercial value, and Cuban continued this tradition in adulthood.

Among the 30 teams in the NBA, it is not that there are no bosses who are richer than Cuban, but for most bosses, they only regard the team as a project they invest in, and they will not personally participate in various projects. In management affairs, as for the real boss, they may just sit in front of the TV and watch the live broadcast of their own team. Only when the team finally wins the championship will they stand on the podium with great interest, but this is not Cuban's behavior and his status as a billionaire did not reduce his enthusiasm for participating in team management. For example, when he first took over the Mavericks, Cuban found that the team only had 5 ticket sales staff. The department expanded to 20 people, and the sales staff were required to sell tickets door-to-door according to the telephone yellow pages. Even Cuban himself would personally join the ranks of telemarketing. No matter how much the class has increased its income, it has created the best basketball atmosphere in the American Airlines Center.

And in the process of NBA games, people saw a Cuban who will always be with the team. When the Mavericks win, he will celebrate like a child. Everyone on the scene is more frustrated. If there are disputes and penalties on the court, Cuban will often be the first person to come forward and argue with the referee. For Cuban, the Mavericks are no longer just a business or an investment. , but has become an important part of personal life.

In the NBA world, Cuban is not the only owner who is willing to spend money on the team. From the Trail Blazers to the Knicks, many teams are big "luxury tax" households, but no one has ever treated this team like Cuban. The team has changed so drastically.

Before Cuban took over the Mavericks, the team missed the playoffs for 9 consecutive seasons. In the 90s, the only award the Mavericks won was the "worst professional sports team". Cuban obviously didn't want to continue like that. He did everything Trying to help the team out of the bottom, although it is a big investment, but he is not just writing the check to satisfy the owner.

In Cuban's first season in charge of the Dallas Mavericks, the team's winning rate quickly increased to 48.8%. Since then, the Mavericks' winning rate has remained above 60% in every season. In the playoffs, the strength of the Mavericks does not only reflect the number of victories. Under Cuban's request, the Mavericks have become one of the most pleasing teams in the entire league, relying on their gorgeous offense to attract countless fans. focus on.

What Cuban transformed is not only his team, he is still subtly affecting the rules of the NBA game. Most of the NBA owners before Cuban carefully controlled the cost of the team, but Cuban believed in "high investment and high output". He has only one goal: to build the best team.

For example, Cuban spent 350 million US dollars to build the NBA's most luxurious locker room for the team, arranged players to stay in five-star hotels, specially invited catering staff after training and games, and bought a Boeing 757 for the team. Going on the road, investing in advanced statistics and analytics to aid drafts and trades, increasing the coaching staff until the ratio of players to players becomes 1:1, and the Mavericks are the only one of the 30 teams in the league to have a full-time free throw coach team, and the only one with its own full-time sports psychologist.

Vujacic never thought that one day, he would have some intersection with this character boss, even though he was about to face Cuban's team, but on the first day the Lakers came to Dallas, Vujacic put Cuban was pissed off.

When entering the hotel, the Lakers were quickly surrounded by reporters who flocked to hear the news. Most of the players bowed their heads and walked into the elevator quickly. They all needed to rest.

Vujacic probably answered a question in a good mood because he had a good time with Hilary Duff recently, but because of his answer, he is gearing up to lead the Mavericks in the new season. Cuban flexed his muscles to anger.

Vujacic didn't quite remember what the reporter asked at that time. He only remembered that he seemed to say: "Dallasians will regret their behavior of giving up Nash!"

"Bastard! That ignorant rookie should keep his mouth shut!"

Cuban's roar came from his office, which startled all the staff in the office. It was hard for them to imagine why the warm and kind BOSS suddenly lost control of his emotions.
