This point guard is great

Chapter 207 Dayao Joins Madison

David Stern, the current president of the NBA, nicknamed Grandpa KFC, likes sweets and watching football.

This boss really likes the kind of basketball. During his tenure, he successfully led basketball from the "violent street" to the "high-end arena". He made all the players take off their hip-hop outfits and put on expensive suits, and completely eliminated the interference of skin color, realizing the equalization of sports. There may be occasional minor mistakes, but the flaws are not concealed. We can leave it to future generations to comment.

But when it comes to the greatest contribution, Stern himself believes that he has successfully opened up the Asian market.

After knocking on the door a few times, I finally established a friendship with that magical country. A big step forward is just around the corner, but just when this man has a lover and a concubine, it can be said that it is a certainty, such a simple matter, just let the bull play a moth.

Stern is tired.

The matter started from last year's draft. Mahon entered the NBA. This was not within Stern's expectation or plan, because all their firepower and publicity were given to Dayao. However, as a starter, Stern welcomed Mahon.

In order to fear that Mahon could not find the team, he even hinted to the general manager of the Hornets at the time. Of course, this was against the rules, and Stern didn't want to, but there was no way.

Fortunately, Ma Hong fought hard on his own. Not only did he reject the Hornets, but he was also scrambled by the Bulls and the Magic based on his strength. Finally, he succeeded in entering the Chicago Bulls.

This is a good thing for everyone. One more person in the Chinese market can expand publicity and influence in the NBA. Yao has a senior. Stern has completed the market warm-up. Ma Hong got a contract. Everyone is happy.

However, since Ma Hong entered the Bulls, the villain in the script seemed to be riding a strong horse. He ran fast, and was full of joy.

Poor little brother server programmer, he didn't sleep for three days and three nights before he sorted out the data.

The youngest vote winner, the best rookie, Mahon did it all, and during the process, Stern hardly had anything to do. This period of mental journey, Stern is so beautiful, he can already imagine the feeling of eating ice cream while lying on the pile of banknotes.

However, the situation changed suddenly at this time, and the Bulls inexplicably acquired a large number of first-round picks, and the Rockets and the Warriors, two brain-dead children, actually sold the picks to the Bulls at a low price.

By the time the poor old guy knew, the trade application had already reached the headquarters, and Stern almost had a heart attack.

Fortunately, at this time, Mahon led the team into the playoffs, and even in the voting, they could be included in the best team. With him and Artest, it seems that the Bulls are not such an unreasonable team. After all, this is where the NBA really made its fortune.

It's the beginning of the legend. It's not impossible for Ma Hong and Dayao to become the new kings here.

Gritting his teeth and stomping his feet, Stern agreed to the trade application. At this point, everything seems to be settled. As long as the draft opens, as long as Ma Hong and Dayao form a new OK combination, everything can go on step by step.

However, after Mahon was injured, Stern completely recovered, and he was really not well.

The Bulls first recklessly announced that they would not renew the contract with Mahon, and then suppressed Mahon's signing price, and a set of operations did not go through the league, and directly attacked the media.

What the hell, did you really treat him as a chicken drummer?
Mahon refused to sign, traded the pick, traded Carter, I let Canada take the pick, good guy, the whole management has been busy for so many years, is it just good people and good deeds?
I give someone to you?
I give you a hair!
Your operation makes people think, come in, how to play the ball, without Mahon as a connection to make a bubble, and with the basketball atmosphere of the Bulls, Stern is afraid that a good hand will be smashed. As soon as the door is opened, you will smash it for me.

But, what can he do now, the draft is about to happen, even if he wants Dayao to go to the Celtics.

David Stern can expressly hint, but he cannot directly overstep the transaction on his behalf. To put it bluntly, Stern is also a part-time worker. If he influences the transaction in an open and honest way, he will directly turn the table, which is likely to cause a chain reaction.

It's really sad that my hair has turned white a lot.

But fortunately, everything has been resolved... This rich second-generation, playboy, ignorant pig, the last sentence is crossed out, Stern is going to re-evaluate this pig from today, you have saved the NBA without knowing it.

……

Under flashing lights and constant boos, David Stern walked onto the runway, showing a kind and cheerful smile. As the saying goes, people are in high spirits on happy occasions. The harsh boos that used to be heard are so pleasant to listen to now.

After a high-spirited prologue, Stern saw the person he wanted to see, Dayao, this polite big man with outstanding football skills, Ma Hong, this little troublemaker who often provokes moths, but is strong in leading the team and has excellent ability to attract fans. Oh, and the pig sitting in the back row, you are also good.

In anticipation, David Stern took the envelope in his hand, and then slowly opened it: "In 2002, the first pick in the NBA draft, the Chicago Bulls selected a little giant from a distant country. Everyone, let us cheer for Yao Ming!"

Reasonable and expected, Dayao stood up and hugged each other gently with Ma Hong and Christine, but at this time a staff member came up to signal Dayao and Ma Hong to wait a moment.

At this moment, Stern signaled everyone to be quiet, and then a trade message appeared on the big screen. The Bulls took out their newly acquired Yao, Charles Oakley and Tony Mahon, and traded their main point guard Howard Addis and their All-Star scorer Alan Houston to the New York Knicks!
Ma Hong was really a little dazed about this deal, because there was no news that the Knicks were going to make a deal before, and besides, what's going on with him?Ma Hong's contract is an expiring contract of the year, theoretically speaking, there is no transaction value for a dime.

But no matter what, Dayao still walked onto the stage and put on that baseball cap.

Although the Knicks have chaotic management, strange players, and have not entered the playoffs for N years in a row, they are completely fringe teams, but even though they are all different, there is one thing, their team price is the highest in the NBA.

Note, none of them.

You can say that the Knicks' coaches, owners, players, management, style of play, or even IQ are not good, but one thing must be recognized, they are very good at money, and they must be good.

The largest ball market in the NBA is the New York Knicks.

With a smile on his face, Dayao picked up the Knicks jersey that Stern had prepared long ago, shook hands, and took pictures. At this moment, the Huaxia fans who watched the live broadcast across the United States burst into tears. This is really their No. [-] pick, and more importantly, what did they hear before?
Mahon is going to play for the Knicks too?
(PS: After thinking about it, let’s come to Madison Garden, the wizard will appear as an easter egg, after all, Boss Joe is the main plot, right!?)
