The invincible kryptonite of basketball

Like he said, no problem.

"Speaking of which, have you ever thought about the future of Jimmy and Kemba?"

Dio asked next.

This is actually a sensitive topic.

Walker will definitely jump out of the player option next season, and so will Butler.

Brothers play basketball for a year, and if they win the championship, they have to consider their respective futures.

Speaking of which, when Tang Tian wanted to form Brothers Basketball, he wanted to take revenge on Xiao Hua and the society.

If Xiao Hua steps down, Brothers Basketball will probably complete its mission and leave.

After all, it has been doing this all the time, the NBA loses its suspense, and the fans' interest decreases.

Whether it is for the alliance or the individual, the loss is huge.

But he had already made up his mind to help Walker get a maximum salary.

And whether Xiao Hua will really step down, it is not certain who will come to power after Xiao Hua steps down.

It is not even known whether the new president will impose some strict restrictions on Baotuan after he takes office.

So what will happen next year is still unknown in his mind.

"There is a saying in China that goes, 'When a car reaches the mountain, there must be a road, and when a boat reaches the bridge, it will be straight'. We will know what will happen next year."

Tang Tian said with a smile.

It is normal for Dior to be worried as an old friend because of the words of fans on social media.

But that's not something they should be thinking about right now.

Now, just like Walker and Bo Yang who are playing Texas Hold'em and laughing happily, they are concentrating on taking revenge on society.

When Xiao Hua is beaten into autism, stepped down, and really depressed, then the goal is really achieved.

As for the next year and the future, he is not a fortune teller, who can predict his own future.

Chapter 99 It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years (the first update!)

Back in New Orleans, while Tang Tian was with his two sons, he also continued his second child pregnancy plan.

Ever since Kobe announced that he was blessed with his fourth daughter not long ago, Tang Tian also began to take pregnancy preparation seriously.

I usually ask Olsen to pay attention to eating acidic foods such as beef, chicken, oranges, grapes, and loach, and stop preparing for pregnancy three days after ovulation, and other parts that cannot be described but can be found on Baidu.

On this day, he was picking grapes, and an unexpected visitor came to the manor, Popovich.

Knowing that Tang Tian was preparing for pregnancy at home recently, Popovich came over with a basket of fresh Texas beef.

"A cousin of mine owns a cattle farm in the countryside, which is absolutely original."

The old man is quite particular.

Tang Tian invited Popovich to the living room, asked the servant to take the beef to freeze, and then poured Popovich a cup of coffee.

"Is something going on with Kawhi again?"

As he handed the coffee to Popovich, he asked.

Don't go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do, Tang Tian knows that Popovich has a lot of troubles recently, and most of them are because of Leonard's affairs.

"Well, I lost touch with Kawhi again."

Popovich nodded and put down the coffee.

"Didn't you do what I said earlier?"

Tang Tian asked.

"No, I did as you said."

"Then how could it be like this?"

Tang Tian was full of doubts.

Even though he came here through time travel, he only knew the general process of many things, and he didn't know the specific details.

If Popovich has followed what he did and gave Leonard enough respect, and Leonard still chooses to get in trouble with the management, then it is Leonard's own problem.

If that's the case, he doesn't have to continue giving advice.

"According to what you said, I gave him super giant treatment and asked him to go to New York to find a doctor.

Kawhi got in touch with me later, but he stayed in New York after that.

Pete was reluctant, he felt that Kawhi had gone too far, and he was very angry. "

Popovich continued.

Tang Tian was taken aback for a moment.

Pete Holt.

He almost forgot about the Spurs owner.

He was also the one who didn't want to keep himself at the beginning.

Now it seems that Leonard is not wanted anymore.

It is said that Popovich is the person with the most say in the Spurs, but there is also a top.

No matter how powerful the head coach is, it is only labor, and no matter how low Holt's status is among the bosses, he is still employers.

Between labor and capital, there is a gap that cannot be bridged.

"and then?"

Tang Tian continued to ask.

"Pete said Leonard had to go back to San Antonio for treatment.

He didn't trust the medical team that Leonard found himself, just like the Rockets didn't trust the doctor that T-mac found by himself. "

Popovich's next words let Tang Tian know the general reason for the incident.

And this example is also very vivid.

McGrady's back injury worsened in 2009. He failed to communicate well with the team and ran out to find a doctor by himself.

So much so that the well-known "7-minute time limit" appeared later, and eventually led to him being traded to New York.

This incident is actually a reference for Holt.

He felt that this method could be used to threaten or force Leonard to return to San Antonio.

But unfortunately, as Tang Tian said, Leonard is not a good baby like GDP. He has his own plan and is not afraid of this threat.

So, the two sides lost contact again.

Things seem to have become very complicated all of a sudden.

Holt's tough attitude formed a strong conflict with Leonard's personality.

It seems that Leonard is going to be like in history, and finally got into trouble with the Spurs, and was eventually traded.

The moment he realized this, Tang Tian suddenly flashed a plan for the Pelicans to use Siakam as the main body to trade Leonard.

The brothers who practiced hard and the former younger brother Leonard, this is really the opponent who will kneel down and call Dad before the game.

But this idea was quickly passed by him.

On the one hand, it is impossible for the Pelicans to afford the salaries of five people. On the other hand, he doesn't want Leonard and Popovich to fight each other.

Of course, the most important thing is that it is not necessary. The current Pelicans are already invincible enough.

Things don't seem to work out.

Perhaps all Tang Tian could do was help Popovich contact Leonard.

Although that basically won't do much.

But just as he picked up his phone and was about to call Leonard, he suddenly remembered something.

It's not whether Leonard will answer his call, but the Spurs' medical facility incident.

He was a little induced by Popovich's words, thinking that Holt simply wanted Leonard back.

"Old man, what do you think of Holt?"

He suddenly changed the subject and asked.

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

Popovich was puzzled.

Tang Tian signaled him to continue.

"Pete is a very good businessman, and he treats people and things well, but he is relatively stingy in terms of team investment.

Of course, this is not his decision alone. The Spurs still have many small bosses.

Other than that, he's stubborn at times, and nothing else. "

Popovich and Tang Tian have a good relationship, and Tang Tian has left the Spurs, so he told the truth.

"I know you have known each other for many years, but I think you may have to make a choice."

Tang Tian nodded and continued.

Popovich looked at Tang Tian and became even more puzzled.

"I think Holt's insistence on Kawhi going back to San Antonio is not just out of anger, it may have something to do with Methodist.healthcare."

Methodist.healthcare is a new medical structure cooperated by the Spurs. The Spurs will go there for diagnosis if any player is injured.

"You mean, the people from Methodist.healthcare want him back?"

Popovich asked back.

"Probably, you know that the diagnostic report from the medical institution is important.

If the local test report is very different from the report given by the doctor in New York, do you think it is a big deal? "

Tang Tian continued.

Popovich was silent.

This matter is very big.

For Methodist.healthcare, if the hospital made a deviation in the diagnosis report, its reputation would suffer and its level would be questioned.

And there was a reason for Tang Tian to say that.

Tang Tian has also returned to San Antonio in the past few years, and he knows exactly what kind of hospital Methodist.healthcare is working with the Spurs.

That is a hospital with only 3.5 points (out of 5 points) in the heart of San Antonio, and the hospital ranks outside the top 200 in the United States.

Especially in kinematics, the level is even more average.

Therefore, it is really possible to misdiagnose Leonard's injury diagnosis.

"But there's no direct evidence for that."

Popovich was silent for a long time and said.

"That's why I said you might have to make a choice."

At this time, Tang Tian looked straight at Popovich, his former mentor.

"It's about letting things go downhill like this, making Kawhi the next me, maybe even leaving before the end of the contract.

Or, re-pick a boss for the Spurs. "
