Chapter 195 Do you really want to cheat? (Second update)

The period between the end of the regular season and the start of the playoffs is the most painful time for Min Congda.

The night after the game between the Clippers and the Lakers, people kept sending text messages and calling to congratulate me.

It also included league commissioner David Stern, who said: "It's a great thing to lead the Clippers from the last place to the playoffs last year. Come on, Smart."

Thank you, David. Next time I scold you, I'll be gentler.

In the Los Angeles sports and entertainment circles, more and more people know Min Congda.

Once a person becomes famous, you don't need to take the initiative to socialize, others will catch up on their own.

Even Jerry Buss, the owner of the Los Angeles Lakers, the Clippers' opponent in the playoffs, praised Min Chongda.

He told the media: "I met this kid during the Las Vegas Summer League. We met at the casino at that time. I said I wanted to teach him some experience in managing the team, but he asked me to teach him.

Son, he doesn’t need it, hahaha! Now it seems that he has such confidence.”

Isn't this a slap in Min Congda's face?

Or are you slapping other NBA front offices in the face?

Min Congda carefully summarized what he will do this season.

In fact, nothing was done, just a draft, a signing, a contract extension, and a trade.

Four one.

If Curry is taken in the draft, the situation will definitely be much better if Griffin is taken.

But no one could have predicted Griffin's injury.

Besides, if Griffin comes back next season.

Who knows what heights he can reach?

Wouldn't it be even worse then?

One signing, signed P.J. Tucker.

This player has done nothing special so far.

I just play very hard and work very hard, that's all.

Min Congda thinks his signing is a good one.

A contract extension, Zach Randolph was renewed in advance.

I originally thought that extending Randolph's contract would make him lazy.

Little did we know that Randolph stopped drinking this season and was still very diligent.

Played in 80 of 82 games, averaging 20 points and 10 rebounds per game.

He entered the All-Star Game, but he didn't perform much even though he played.

It is an honor after all.

Min Congda thought that if the contract was not renewed in advance, the situation would not change this season.

Maybe Randolph plays harder and ranks higher.

Therefore, this contract renewal is still feasible.

A trade is a trade away from Kaman.

Min Congda thinks this deal is the right one.

With Kaman left, the Clippers' interior twin towers will be even more powerful.

With the current momentum, we will still make the playoffs.

So, overall, Min Congda feels that he has done a good job.

He has tried his best!

Four operations, one was successful, two were good, and one failed, it was not a failure.

So why is the effect unsatisfactory?

Look at what the Clippers did last season.

Counting from the summer of 2008 to the end of the regular season in April 2009.

The Clippers made two drafts, eight signings, seven trades, and five layoffs.

The total number of operations is 22, which is more than five times that of Min Congda.

The result? 19 wins and 63 losses, last in the league.

Is it true that the more operations there are, the worse the team will be?

This record made Min Congda jealous, 63 losses.

Converted into salary, it would be US$126,000, RMB 850,000.

This season, the Clippers have 50 wins and 32 losses, and Min Congda only received a salary of US$64,000.

It's almost half the amount.

Fortunately, Min Congda has a bonus.

By cursing the referees, the league and the commissioner in the NBA.

Min Congda received a total of 6 tickets during the regular season.

The total fine was US$200,000, of which US$50,000 was cheated by Adam Silva into the foundation.

Therefore, if you actually get it, you will be fined $150,000.

Including salary, Min Congda's current income this year is about US$200,000.

It looks pretty good, and Min Congda usually spends almost no money.

Food is provided at the training center, driving and buses are provided, and accommodation is provided by the system.

One person is fed, the whole family is not hungry, and all the money is saved.

Among them, US$160,000 was used to buy Apple stocks in batches.

After one season, I accumulated 800 shares of Apple stock.

Currently, Apple's stock price has reached a high point, at $241 per share.

Therefore, the total market value of Min Congda's stocks has reached US$192,800.

An increase of 20.5% based on the purchase price is already a very high investment income.

Most people would have sold and cashed out long ago, and the more than $30,000 earned would have been spent.

However, Min Congda knew that this stock was far from moving, so he had to be a friend of time.

This time the Clippers entered the playoffs, which gave Min Congda two revelations:

First, fewer operations are not better. Sometimes doing nothing can make the team more stable.

If by accident there are still a few good players in the team, the record is likely to improve steadily.

Look at the mess the Clippers management made last season, finishing last in the rankings.

You will still have to worry about it in the future.

As for how to fiddle with oneself to weaken oneself and strengthen the opponent, this is a science.

Min Congda feels that he still needs to learn more and see more, and he still needs to study.

If you relax a little and play a few less 2K games, your level will drop, right?

Second, completing the task of bankrupting the Clippers is a long-term plan.

It seems impossible to think of just a few in just one season.

When he first received the assignment, Min Congda didn't know much about the NBA.

Now he knows that this is a powerful and intricate alliance.

To defeat a certain team requires careful planning.

Now that all three of his major plans are in the preparation stage, it will be a long-term struggle.

Because of this, Min Congda needs to plan more for his future.

Make good use of Apple stock and save more money for yourself.

The tickets are now worth 190,000. In the future, dividends, share placements, and increases will be made, and the income will become higher and higher as time goes by.

This is a wealth guarantee for Min Congda.

"If I really can't complete the task, why don't I stay as the general manager of the Clippers for the rest of my life?"

The fact that the Clippers entered the playoffs this time was a big blow to Min Chongda.

The original ambition to defeat Staples in one season and make the Clippers unable to make ends meet and become insolvent has long since disappeared.
