Chapter 297 Behind the Scenes
Bobcats did not sweep the Wizards.
But they didn't expect that they were the first to finish the second round of the playoffs.
The Heat and the Pistons have played 6 games.
The Pistons didn't score much.
The only game that broke 100 points, the Pistons lost.
But when the Pistons played their full defensive strength, the Heat's offense misfired.
In the end, the Pistons had the last laugh.
West side.
The Suns played against the Mavericks, and the Spurs played against the Supersonics. They also fought fiercely to the sixth game.
The Suns and Spurs enter the Western Conference Finals.
……
These days, nba commissioner David Stern heard a rumor that made him very unhappy.
Someone is going to do some tricks in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Get the Pistons to the Finals.
For David Stern.
It is best for the Bobcats and the Suns to join forces in the Finals.
The sun's run and bomb system has taken shape.
Although according to the nba popular saying.
"Offense wins crowds, defense wins championships."
Most professionals are not optimistic about solar energy entering the finals.
If their opponents are not the Grizzlies and Mavericks.
The Grizzlies are too weak.
The Lone Ranger is also an offensive style of play, but his strength is not as good as the Suns.
Then, the Suns may not even have a chance to enter the Western Conference Finals.
Now, in front of the sun is the Spurs.
It has been predicted that the sun may not win a game.
Stern knew this.
Even, it is also recognized.
……
The Spurs will win the Western Conference Finals.
In the Eastern Conference Finals, most people saw the Pistons.
For Stern, he also felt it made sense.
It's just that he doesn't want the Pistons to enter the finals.
Say the Pistons can win.
On the one hand, compared to the two teams, the Pistons are obviously the more defensive team.
Moreover, the Pistons have really done a good job defensively this season.
On the other hand, the Bobcats are currently short of major generals.
There are only 7 players available in total.
In this case, let Stern feel that the Bobcats are more likely to advance to the team.
He wouldn't lie to himself like that.
It's just that someone actually wanted to interfere in the game and let the Pistons win.
This is something that David Stern cannot tolerate anyway.
……
The Pistons are a defensive team.
The Spurs are also a defensive team.
In this way, the two teams meet in the finals.
What the hell will the attention and ratings of the game look like?
David Stern imagined it even with his toes.
If the two teams play normally, but inevitably meet, that's fine.
Stern does sometimes intervene in games.
But most of the time, he doesn't do that.
But someone wants to interfere with the game against his will, that's another matter.
……
"Who wants to do this!"
David Stern called a meeting of his men.
The first suspect is Xiao Hua.
This guy doesn't know why, but he just doesn't like Zhou Yao.
In addition, the players he supported still failed to lead the team into the future this year.
It's just that this guy shouldn't be so stupid.
Zhou Yao at least brought the team to the Eastern Conference Finals.
Even let him out now.
Still much stronger than the player Xiao Hua supported.
Besides, that kid is only a second grader.
The current performance is actually very good.
In a few years, it can also grow into an existence of the alliance's facade.
Is it really good for Xiao Hua to encourage the growth of seedlings like this?
At the same time, Xiao Hua kept a straight face, lowered his head and did not speak.
This time it wasn't him playing tricks.
He's not that stupid.
He can't do such a thing that hurts others and benefits himself.
There is nothing wrong with doing bad things.
It's not his style to do bad things without any benefit.
……
"We're also investigating."
"But it is said that the Bobcats are planning to do this."
Xiao Hua lowered his head and said nothing, but everyone couldn't keep silent.
"Are they crazy?"
"To reach the finals, what's wrong with them!"
David Stern laughed angrily.
How could these guys use such words to prevaricate themselves.
But on second thought, some people at the Bobcats thought it might be possible.
This time last year.
The Bobcats build.
The total capital is about 1.99 million.
Jordan joined the Bobcats management with capital.
Obtained the right to manage the team.
At the same time, a gambling agreement was signed.
Jordan paid $4300 million in cash.
Direct access to 5% of the total share capital.
Cannot lead the team to the playoffs within three years.
His 4300 million is still only 5%.
Jordan had a net loss of more than 3000 million.
If the team can enter the playoffs within three years.
Jordan's shareholding is 20%.
Even considering the possible profit and market value increase in the next few years.
Jordan is at most no loss and no profit.
If the team can reach the finals within three years.
Jordan's 4300 million accounted for 51% of the shares, and at the same time he could take out another 1 million to acquire the remaining 49%.
In other words, if the Bobcats beat the Pistons, reach the finals.
Even if you don't consider the profitability of operating the team, you don't consider the rise in stock prices.
Jordan was also able to transfer more than 5000 million from other shareholders.
That's a lot of money.
The point is, with the current performance of the team, the market value must have soared long ago.
……
"So it is!"
After thinking about the cause and effect, Stern showed a very kind smile on his face.
Xiao Hua, who was sitting by the side, couldn't help shivering.
David Stern gives most people the impression that humans and animals are harmless.
It seems that this old man in his 60s has brought the nba to such a heyday just by relying on his business philosophy one step ahead.
Few people can really experience his thunder method.
What's even more terrifying is that when David Stern really wants to teach someone a lesson, he often doesn't get his hands dirty.
And it is.
Stern has made his decision.
He will observe first.
Don't forget he is a lawyer.
First of all, of course, the evidence of those people must be obtained first.
Then let the game run its course.
It would be best if the Bobcats could win the game in one fell swoop.
If not, he has already greeted those referees in advance.
He doesn't need to explain things too clearly, those guys naturally know what to do.
As long as the Bobcats can finally win the series.
Those guys will naturally lose a lot of money.
Some of them, even bankruptcy, are not out of the question.
For this kind of person, Stern has no sympathy at all.
It doesn't matter even if something happens.
Stern already had evidence in his hands.
When the time comes, throw out the evidence.
Those guys can naturally be eliminated in the league.
For the alliance, short-term interests may be damaged, but long-term interests can be fully guaranteed.
At the same time, it can also hit those guys who want to do something behind his back.
……
The President is arranging everything.
Zhou Yao, and others in Shanmao still don't know anything about it.
5 month 23 day.
The first game of the Eastern Conference finals will be played in Charlotte.
Countless people are following this game...
