Chapter 1038 The Second Regular Meeting of the Alliance
"Apart from that thing, how do you evaluate the alliance during the Xiaohua period? You know, Americans are sometimes generous, and they choose to forget when they need it."
Barkley is really digging a hole, and he is really brave enough to say it with a big mouth.
Those NBA bosses only have money in their eyes. What happened half a year ago was a big deal at that time, but if it involves interests and needs it, it is not a problem.
"Charles, you should look at social media more."
Tang Tian knew that this was a pit, so he didn't jump directly into it. He was angry, but he would not lose his mind.
"Um?"
Barkley looked at Tang Tian in confusion.
"As the pace of the game gets faster and the game is increasingly influenced by the referees, the fans are no longer talking about the game, but the data."
Tang Tian continued.
Barkley was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then laughed.
This sentence kills the game directly.
In the small ball era, the three-point era did have a period of eye-catching excitement, but it was like the feeling of emptiness after orgasm, and it has not recovered until now.
Because, seeing too much is really boring.
In order to adapt to the traditional big men who gradually faded out of the league, the loss of top big men led to a serious decline in the inside defense. Because the inside lacks defense, outside players can play one at will, because the tactical singularity caused by wanton one at a time, because the tactical singularity caused by the wanton one at a time, because the tactical singularity brought aesthetic fatigue of the game itself.
All these details are actually linked together, and short-term stimulation cannot guarantee long-term development.
This is actually short-sightedness and drinking poison to quench thirst.
The league during the Stern era had such high ratings. Now that the development of informatization, the ratings of the playing style during that period will only be higher.
This was reflected after Taitum took office.
So Xiao Hua satisfied those alliance bosses for a while, but sacrificed the future of the alliance, and of course, the future interests of those bosses.
But this kind of thing takes time to prove that not everyone is patient, and not everyone can see that far away.
"What we should see is the future of NBA. Under the new broadcast contract, even income is guaranteed with a lower limit. I believe that maintaining the current style of play will bring unprecedented development to the league in the next few years."
Tang Tian said at the end.
This sentence is obviously not for the Big Three N, nor for the fans, but for the NBA bosses who can watch this episode.
Moreover, this sentence is not a big pie to him or her empty words, which was verified by his personal experience in his previous life.
After participating in the N program, Tang Tian did not sit and wait for news.
He allowed Demps to continue to maintain contact with the Jazz, Mavericks, and even the Pacers.
He also called Walker and told the latter not to rush to sign with the Celtics.
The incident of the league president came suddenly and he didn't have time to prepare.
Fortunately, the time is not too late. He took the initiative to participate in the n program to do what he could do, but it does not mean that he can only make preparations.
He has planena, so naturally there is planb.
Even if things really go in a direction he doesn't want, planb may be even more exciting.
The incident came to July 9th, and the freezing period of the NBA free market ended.
At this time in previous years, those players who reached oral agreements with the team would reach formal contracts with the team as soon as possible.
But many players have delayed the signing time this year.
Changes in the league president affect all aspects.
The league is also very clear about this. Although the president is just an endorseer, it can be seen from Xiaohua and Tetm that it may represent two completely different development directions.
Two days later, the second regular meeting of the alliance continued to be held at its headquarters in New York.
The focus of this meeting was to vote whether Xiao Hua would return as the president of the league.
The approval rating issue that was discussed before was finally decided to be the same as Tetm, and only if it reaches 80% of the approval rating can it return.
In other words, for 30 teams, at least 24 teams must vote for support.
If this vote is not reached, then Tetm will continue to serve as interim president until he will vote again a year later.
The weather in New York today is very stuffy, as if it will rain at any time.
The air conditioner is turned on in the conference room. Although the temperature outside is isolated, the closed environment and the dark outside window environment still make people feel a little depressed.
The meeting is still chaired by Tetm.
Compared to the last time, Tetm was in a very bad mood.
This is also human nature.
If Xiao Hua returns, then he will continue to be the vice president. Even if Xiao Hua fails to come back, the word "temporary" will still be in front of him.
No matter what the result is, it is not a good thing for him.
For some simple opening remarks, Tetm asked the teams what they had to say before the voting began.
Most team representatives didn't say anything, and it could be seen that they had made a decision.
"I have something to say."
Pelicans owner's wife Gale Benson raised her hand to signal.
This time Demps didn't come, she came in person.
Tatm signaled that he could speak.
"I believe that all of us have watched the latest episode of n. We should all look at it for a long time and don't wait until we regret it in the future. We have to sit down again and do it again."
Benson's words are very suggestive.
However, the purpose of her words was to remind other team representatives that if they only value the immediate interests, the loss will be greater interests in the future.
Tatm nodded, Benson's words were changing directions to support him.
"Is there anyone else?"
Tetm swept the conference room around.
No one is talking.
He finally glanced at Xiao Hua, who looked calm and confident.
"Then... let's start."
Tatum finally announced.
The staff began to collect votes with boxes, and the bosses of each team also took out the tickets they had prepared long ago and stuffed them in.
The conference room was particularly quiet, with only the sound of staff walking.
"Wow!"
The vote was collecting, and it suddenly started to rain outside the window.
The sky became dimmer and darker, reflecting the lights in the conference room and an indescribable atmosphere.
Benson turned his head and looked out the window, and suddenly felt a bad premonition.
Xiao Hua was like a dark cloud shrouded in the alliance. If the final vote was that Xiao Hua continued to take office, it would be like the weather outside, it was really dark and I would never know when it would disappear.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, accompanied by thunder and lightning, pouring down and pouring in.
The staff had collected all the ballots of the representatives and got the seat at the end of the conference table, where someone supervised it.
The vote-singing session is about to be the final result of the voting.
Everyone's eyes looked over there.
Chapter completed!
