It makes sense that Stern would come to trouble him. After all, who made Bruce "get into trouble" again this time?

But what does Paul Allen mean by calling?

Although Bruce has taken time to call his "godfather" every week since he returned to China, which is called to keep in touch with him emotionally, but I think Paul Allen even took the initiative to call me when Bruce was in class on Monday.

Then you have to think about it...

The old man usually won't take the initiative to call himself at this time, unless there is something urgent...

It’s not like they’re here to “provoke an army to hold people accountable” again...

Not everyone will accept the emergence of "rest orders", especially the vast majority of owners in the league.

Bruce took a breath and answered the phone.

"Hey, Father, why haven't you rested at this late hour? What's the matter with you looking for me now?" In view of the loud "severe reprimand" he had just received from Stern, for the sake of his own ears, Bruce took the phone away slightly.

A little further.

"Bruce, is it almost noon over there now?" Paul Allen thought for a long time before making the call after watching the post-game press conference.

"Yes, I just got out of school. I'm going home to have lunch and then take a nap. What, my father wants to ask me for something?" Bruce didn't scold me like Stern did, and Bruce was in a much better mood.

At least my "godfather" is quite sensible...

"How about you go back to eat first, I'll call back later..." Paul Allen still cared about Bruce very much.

"No, actually, dad, did you call me to ask about the holiday order?" Bruce said straight to the point.

Bruce doesn't want to be mean to Paul Allen. After all, it's not easy to find someone abroad who really cares for you, especially a big shot like Paul Allen...

"Well... yes, I would like to ask why you made the decision to take a break. You must know that the bosses of other teams in the league have never proactively announced it before..." Paul Allen wondered.

After Han Chinese head coach Paul Westphal made an "astonishing" statement about the "rest order" at the press conference, Paul Allen received a call from his friend Mikey Arison, the owner of the Heat, and

He is extremely unfriendly on the phone and complains mostly about Bruce.

Not to mention that he also received calls from many heavyweight bosses in the league. Anyway, the phone calls had one meaning: what did Bruce want to do? Did he want to go against us bosses...

Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents. Bruce's move undoubtedly offended a lot of people.

They will not go to Bruce. They are all uncles and uncles. Who would go to see him like a child? But there is a saying that is good, that is, "it is the fault of the godfather". Since Bruce is your Paul E.

Lun's "godson", so please take good care of your "godson" to avoid biting people...

That's why Paul Allen made the call himself, wanting to know what Bruce thought.

After all, the matter happened to his "godson", and he had no choice but to shoulder the responsibility.

"Father, I think there are a lot of people calling to find you, right?" Bruce sneered.

These people are indeed old, old and young. If they can't fight him, will they learn to sue their parents?

Very few people have Bruce's personal phone number. Except for a few close Chinese friends, only his close associates know about it.

These old guys definitely don’t have his phone number, so they either go to Stern to file a complaint or go to Paul Allen to argue. After all, the general manager of the Han Chinese team, Mitch Kupchak, is a low-key person now and is not equal to these bosses. They

There is no need to be as knowledgeable as such a small character...

"Yes, some people called, they..."

"Father, Stern has called me earlier. He and I have already settled everything. A policy will be issued early tomorrow morning, which is about rotational rest..." Bruce interrupted Paul.

Allen's words.

It would be better to make things clear as soon as possible. No matter how dissatisfied these bosses are, Stern will stand up from the front, and he can completely retreat to the second line...

Anyway, it will be a good thing for everyone when the policy comes out tomorrow. At least the "crusade" against him by many team owners in the league will "die down"...

"Oh, have you made an agreement with Stern? What kind of policy is it..." Paul Allen did not expect that Stern would come to Bruce to "talk" so soon, let alone that Bruce had already given Stern to

Done, now it’s interesting...

No wonder those bastards didn’t come to Stern immediately but came to him instead. It turned out that the line for complaining to Stern was busy, so they changed their target...

"This, this, father will know when he sees it tomorrow. I won't say it in advance. Anyway, it will be good for everyone..." The name of the policy that Bruce thought of was too hard to say...

It's really too embarrassing, so it's better not to say anything. Bruce isn't going to say it anyway. Yes, he won't say it even if I beat you to death...

"Oh, okay then, I'll know it tomorrow anyway."

"By the way, I want to ask you why you came out with the order to take the rotation in advance..." Paul Allen still can't figure out why Bruce wants to take the rotation. You can do it in private and no one will care about it. Unlike

Now, things have become so big and difficult to deal with.

"Actually, this is good. I just want my players to have a few more years in their careers. After all, some of them only have a few years of opportunity to make money. Resting can at least allow them to stay in the league for a few more years...

..." Bruce said calmly.

Is it really to let them fight for a few more years?

No other ideas?

Not necessarily, does Bruce care about the players this much?

He is the "Virgin Mary"?

Of course not. There are two reasons why Bruce did this. One is really to allow his players to "live" for a few more years. You must know that if Yao Ming joins the team later, he will travel back and forth between China and the United States every year.

Not only did he have to participate in the Asian Championships, Asian Games, World Championships, Olympic Games and even friendly matches of the national team, such as the Stankovic Cup and other competitions, this was not to write off Yao Ming as soon as possible. Bruce was filled with righteous indignation and let

Is it possible for Yao Ming to participate in so many games and not take a rest?

The second is to use the "rotation order" to make those players who are currently playing or joining the Hanren team in the future feel more like "home" to this team.

Think about it, there is a boss who cares about you players, why don't you just come over and "take refuge"? You must know that there are many bosses in the league who cannibalize people and not spit out their bones, not to mention far away

, Clippers owner Donald Sterling is definitely that kind of guy...

"Hey, Bruce, you are too kind to the players in the league. This is not good. You have to know that we are businessmen. Businessmen pursue profits. We pay high salaries, so they should play for us..." Paul Eyre

Lun must remind Bruce that no boss in America has ever truly thought about his subordinates. Whether it is him or Bill, they are both "superior" people and they will not "exploit and oppress" these workers like most people.

Or, but it’s not much better. Anyway, as long as you pay me, you have to do things for me...

I don’t know if Bruce’s cultural origin is different. Anyway, in Paul Allen’s mind, Bruce is an alien. Bruce is definitely not related to businessmen. He is like that kind of “Buddhist” who comes to save the world...
