I stole James

Chapter 64 Contradictory Exposure
Before the game between the Cavaliers and the Trail Blazers, there was a piece of news that attracted people's attention.

"Infighting in the Cavaliers: Rookie No. [-] pick and the core of the team compete for the boss position"

This report was written by Skip, whom James hated to see.

With a keen sense of smell, like a fly, he stings on the cracks in the Cavaliers' eggs and finds the entry point that attracts the fans' attention.

In this report, he not only added what James said, but also added a sneak peek from Ricky Davis. Davis even exposed what he said when he and James had an argument on the court. come out.

And said that famous sentence to Skip, and it was this sentence that gave him the weight of a sentence in NBA history.

"I thought the team picked him to help me!"

This report exposed the Cavaliers' internal conflicts to the public, which made the Cavaliers' management and owners very dissatisfied.

They met overnight to discuss countermeasures.

One of the key points of their discussion is whether James can independently provoke a team after the evaluation of the first two games of the preseason and the regular season, and whether he can be completely sure that he is not a parallel importer.

All solutions are based on this point.

Of course, the management didn't tell anyone about the results of this discussion. They just asked the team's public relations to refute the report.

The team also talked to James and Davis separately, pushing them together in front of reporters, trying to clear up rumors of their feud.

It's just that this kind of superficial effort is for outsiders to see. Everyone in the team can sense that the two are really at odds, because Davis hasn't given James a good face since that day.

Of course, James was also cold, he didn't take this to heart at all, he only despised Davis's ignorance in his heart.

The more this contradiction is made public, the more the team is urged to deal with it heavily.

In the game against the Trail Blazers, James scored a double-double again, but the team is still hard to find a win, losing three straight at the beginning.

In this game, Davis even declared his identity as the team leader everywhere, yelling at James on the court many times, blaming James for not passing the ball to him immediately.

All these fell into the eyes of the reporters on the sidelines, and they all took out their recording tools to record them.

Looking back at the post-match press conference, Davis even directly accused James of not doing a good job at the team's No. 1 position, and failing to pass the ball to the person who should pass it in time, which eventually led to this fiasco. 85 Compared with 105, they lost to the Trail Blazers by 20 points.

When the reporter asked him, he only scored 13 points and 5 rebounds but made 5 turnovers, and only made 17 of 4 shots in the game, whether he was also responsible for the loss.

He asked rhetorically, when a team's point guard can't do his job well, and doesn't pass the ball in time at the right time, how can he win the game, and how can others play well?And this is one of the reasons why he has educated James many times on the court.

He feels that he has fulfilled the role of a team leader with due diligence both in terms of words and deeds. If the team wants to achieve growth and a good record, it must rely more on veterans like them instead of relying on fate. Hand it over to some brats.

These remarks by Ricky Davis made the team's public relations efforts completely in vain.

The owner of the Cavaliers, Daniel Gilbert, immediately gave instructions, asking the general manager of the team to deal with these matters as soon as possible, and this farce cannot be allowed to continue.

……

……

After a three-game losing streak, the Cavaliers returned to the home court to wait for the Nuggets. This is a "why don't you pass the ball to Divac?" A game that attracts the attention of fans.

Anthony will face off against James in this game.

They have been known as the peerless twins since their high school days, and they are the two who are currently the most outstanding among the first-level rookies in 03. It is very likely that the best rookie award will be decided by the competition between the two of them.

But before the game, the Cavaliers have three days of valuable rest.

James intends to use this rest time to confirm his agent, otherwise he has been busy with the game, and he can't handle many things. Without an agent, it will be very troublesome.

Of course, he has put aside James' social relationship now. As a time traveler, he has no connections at all. He can only ask Wade and Anthony to help recommend a few reliable candidates. Even if it doesn't work, he can temporarily Use it, deal with daily trivial matters, don't need to be distracted by yourself, and if you find a suitable candidate in the future, it's okay to change again.

He had already met three or four people in the past two days, and to be honest, none of them satisfied him, or made him feel bright.

He had to meet another one today, and this was the last candidate recommended by Wade. If that didn't work, he planned to make do with one of the first three or four.

When he arrived at the agreed place, the other party was already waiting there.

It was a Caucasian woman, wearing a very capable little suit and skirt, with blond hair and a delicate face, she looked quite capable, her name was Karina.

When James arrived, she stood up and offered to say hello.

Karina is a rookie agent, but she has worked as an agent assistant in a top agent company for two years before. She has not signed any other players. What attracts James is her education, double master's degree from Harvard University, Studied law and marketing.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly modest girl is still a top student.

For James, he never planned to find the kind of top well-known agent who has signed dozens of NBA players under his hand. That is not what he wants, otherwise why would he fire his former agent David? Well, just keep it and continue to use it, there is no need to spend such a big trouble.

He told Wade and Anthony Ming that it is best to be an agent who has worked in a top agency but has no signing players under his hands.

The three or four he had seen before didn't quite meet his requirements, and basically there were several players in his hand.

It seems that this Karina quite meets his requirements. Of course, it is definitely not because Karina is good-looking, but she is also pretty.

What he wants is this kind of smart and intelligent player who has no other players in his hands. When he cooperates, he must always consider his interests. Only in this way can the interests of the other party be maximized, and there will be no one player. Situations where a player messes up at work can be made up for by another player.

What he wants is someone who can go all out and be easy to control.

It was a pleasant conversation with Karina, and he finally decided on this matter.
