I have to say that Stern believed that Bruce stopped Xu and Zhang from saying "bad things" about the league during the live broadcast, and he was very satisfied with Bruce's operation this time.

Although the little kid often causes him trouble, Bruce still has his own advantages. Bruce has huge advantages outside, especially in China. It can be said that keeping Bruce in the league means that the league can continue to attract money from China.

.

This is simply too sour and refreshing!

Baldy Xiao also believed that this matter must be the result of Bruce controlling public opinion in China.

Anyway, in the eyes of Chinese fans in this game, they will only think that Kobe's condition today is worrying and his performance is not good. But those who know the NBA in the 1980s will definitely not think so much.

The Chinese side is safe, and Stern has begun to prepare to deal with the impact after the game. I have to say that the media reporters who often report on NBA games are not fools. They all saw it soon after the game started.

Now, I’ve been waiting to go back and think about how to write the layout!

This is so exciting. Jordan's heir actually received the same treatment as Jordan when he participated in the All-Star Challenge for the first time. What a big topic!

Everyone thought that Jordan's "isolated" incident would never happen again, but they never expected that it would happen again, and it was still Kobe. There is no need to talk about the relationship between Kobe and Jordan now. It seems that the NBA is bullying.

Jordan's customs, Jordan's first All-Star trip was like this, and Kobe is still like this, so will Kobe's disciples (Jordan's disciples) be treated differently in the future? We often say a saying, it's called "Ke Yi"

However, in European and American countries, there is no such tradition. They just want to have as many such "activities" as possible, preferably every year.

It happens every year, which is wonderful to think about.

Didn’t you see that Stern’s face has turned a lot darker now?

…

"Adam, send someone to investigate and find out who is behind all this!" Stern stopped Xiao Guangtou and whispered.

Stern is now in a hurry to go back and deal with the trend of public opinion in the media after the game. There is nothing to investigate. As the assistant to the president, Xiao Guangtou has the right to investigate Sarah.

"Okay CEO!" After receiving the order, Guangtou Xiao turned around and left.

"Adam wait, remember to investigate this matter yourself, and after the investigation is completed, just tell me the results directly. Others don't need to know this, understand!" Stern grabbed Xiao, who turned around and left in a hurry.

Baldhead said cautiously.

Although he hated the person who planned this conspiracy, Stern still thought about it. What if the mastermind behind this time had a big background? You know, even if he sent people to investigate and found out that the Smiling Assassin and the Magician were working together,

Jordan, he did not choose to punish these two people. The reason is very simple. The influence of these two people in the NBA is too important. Not to mention that these two people did not admit that they "isolated" Jordan. Even if they did, Stern would not punish him.

Yes, if you really do this, wouldn’t it be a slap in the face of the alliance!

No matter who is found in this investigation, Stern still maintains an attitude of not punishing him. This is a player's private behavior and does not involve violating the league's rules and regulations, so he cannot be punished. However, this incident undoubtedly challenged his nerves.

It touched his bottom line, so no matter who was investigated, revenge would definitely be left to Bruce, and he would never make it easy for the team behind the scenes.

Let's put it this way: Once Stern is angered, and the person behind the scenes is investigated to be a senior executive or owner of a certain team, then I'm sorry, if you want to get a good signing, it will basically be during Stern's reign.

It's definitely impossible to get it. Even if this team ranked last in the league that season, it would never be able to get the top three picks. Stern is so domineering and won't give it if he says it won't be given. He still has the ability to manipulate the draft every year.

this right.

Of course, people may say that since you can't get the top three picks if you mess up, then it's just as easy to sign All-Star players to form the "Big Three" or something like that. Stern can't control this, right?

If you really think so, you are totally wrong. Yes, Stern cannot refuse the team's normal player transactions, but he can "make excuses".

…

Do you still remember why the league blocked Paul and Kobe from joining forces?

On December 9, 2011, the Los Angeles Lakers, New Orleans Hornets and Houston Rockets reached a three-way deal. The Lakers got Paul and sent Pau Gasol and Odom. The Rockets got Gasol and the Hornets got Martin from the Rockets.

, Dragic, Scola and Odom. In addition, the Rockets also sent one of their 2012 first-round picks to the Hornets. At that time, the deal shocked the league as soon as it came out, and the deal was almost completed.

, Stern, then NBA commissioner, suddenly announced that he was halting the deal for basketball reasons.

When former Hornets owner George Shinn was selling the Hornets in 2011, there was no shortage of buyers, but there was only one from New Orleans, and he withdrew from the competition due to various reasons. At the time, league president Stern pointed out

, for a city like New Orleans that has experienced hurricane disasters, the league always hopes to do something for it. In other words, the NBA does not want New Orleans to be hit again after the hurricane because the Hornets are moved away by foreign buyers. On the other hand,

, the league did not want to see the Hornets being sold at a low price, so it temporarily took over and waited until a local person wanted to buy the team before selling it. Therefore, the Hornets were temporarily managed by the league. Paul is the signature of the Hornets. If Paul

After being traded, the Hornets' box office will definitely not be guaranteed, and it will be difficult for the league to sell the Hornets if they want to sell them. This is just one of the reasons!

Another reason is that more than half of the team owners called Stern to object to the deal. Just kidding, Paul was definitely the number one point guard in 2011. If they were paired with Kobe, then what else would they be doing? Why not?

Directly declare that the Lakers have won the championship! They all believe that this transaction will change the pattern of the league and hurt their ball market. The Lakers have won 16 championships before, and they are still in a city like Los Angeles.

As a big city, the football market has never been something they need to consider. At that time, many team owners were still working hard for the profit and loss of the football market, which was obviously not fair to them. So at that time, in order to consider the overall interests of the league, Stern

The decision to stop the alliance was made only because of the harmonious development of the alliance.

Now it seems that if after the transaction was completed, the Lakers had the best point guard Paul, the best point guard Kobe, and the No. 1 center Howard who was subsequently traded, then the Lakers might really have to notify the league, and other teams would not

We have to play. So fortunately the league stopped the deal at that time, otherwise the other 29 teams would probably stop playing.

…

Therefore, there are still ways to prevent the trade of All-Star players, and it is still feasible to contact the owners of many teams to carry out this operation.

Stern didn't need to take any action on his own to contact other team owners. He only needed to give Bruce a call. With Bruce's small group and Paul Allen's cooperative alliance, more than half of the teams

It is simply not easy to object.

It can be said that no matter how you play, the opponent is dead. If you offend Stern and Bruce, these two shady guys, the ending will indeed not be good!

In fact, these are just side dishes, the big dish Stern hasn’t been brought out yet!
