Chapter 268: Jordan is very upset

.., Bishop of the Devil
"Beep beep!" The referee blew the whistle at the end of the first quarter.
What surprised the fans was that after the first quarter of the game, the best stats turned out to be the three newcomers to the All-Stars for the first time!
Iverson debuted for 9 minutes in the first quarter and scored 12 points directly, ranking first among all participating All-Stars!
Kobe also played 9 minutes in the first quarter, with 9 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists. The comprehensive data is the best player in the West.
Xiao Ao played the whole game in the first quarter, playing for twelve minutes, which made the fans unable to speak up...
Richard is a bit too shameless.
Twelve minutes of playing time allowed O'Neal to get 6 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block of data. O'Neal is not weak at all...
New York fans at the scene exclaimed in their hearts, this year's All-Star mvp won't be picked up by these three newcomers? !
Following this momentum, this year's All-Star mvp is really only possible among these three.
...
"Michael, don't tell me, you want to get mvp this year..." Larry Bird smiled and asked Jordan.
Jordan waved his hand: "It's boring, I have taken this thing twice, it really doesn't matter if I take it this time."
"What I want to know most now is, what exactly did you do with Richard, Larry, can you satisfy my curiosity?"
Larry Bird rolled his eyes and didn't directly answer Jordan's words. Anyway, he certainly wouldn't say anything about this.
Richard's message to him is very important to him. The less people know, the better!
If Jordan knew it, how many people would tell with his big mouth, by then all the teams in the league would know about it, who would be willing to take the pick? !
Even if Larry Bird heard of this news, it would be useless. He didn't have the right to draft. Even in the draft year, Larry Bird didn't think about any good harvest.
...
At the beginning of the second quarter, the head coaches of both sides were very tacit and did not let the three newcomers start.
Larry Bird has reduced some Reggie Miller's playing time as much as possible. After all, Miller is his own. Reduce Miller's playing time and let it be used by Iverson. No one can pick out the problem...
Richard's side is to reduce the playing time of the Lakers players as much as possible, and let it be used by the two newcomers to the Blazers. Anyway, the relationship between Richard and the Lakers is also not in harmony...
In addition, the Lakers have three All-Stars playing. One person will scoop six or seven minutes of wool, which will give about 20 minutes more time. The average distribution to Xiao Ou and Kobe is enough to make the two people's playing time reach. thirty minutes!
...
The three Lakers players are quite helpless at the moment, especially Fan Maniac, as the starting guard of the West, he actually only played five minutes in this first game...
The three of them must have been extremely dissatisfied, but what can they do about it, who made Richard the head coach.
...
In this second quarter game, the three newcomers have played for about 7 minutes, and the data has been further improved.
And Jordan played 8 minutes in the second quarter, and his feel was only average. He made 3 of 6 shots and scored 10 points in the first half.
Now Jordan is thinking about what kind of deal there is between Larry Bird and Richard...
He has a hunch that the transaction between the two must be very important!
In the east, the Pacers are the Bulls’ biggest competitors. Jordan is really afraid of Richard sending a newcomer to the Pacers...
This kind of thing has not happened in the history of NBA.
For example, Richard rented a big capital to the Pacers for one year, which will undoubtedly increase the strength of the Pacers, and it may really threaten the Bulls.
Jordan is thinking about it now...
...
Now Jordan, the goal is three consecutive championships, he does not want any twists and turns in this matter.
Many fans and media believe that Jordan is tired of nba and feels no challenge, and then he will choose to retire after this season...
Jordan's first retirement may indeed be the reason plus the sadness of his father's murder.
The reason for this second retirement may also be this reason, but the possibility is not very large.
What really retired Jordan was the salary negotiation this year. Even if the negotiation has not started yet, the player union and the league management committee have reached a confrontational situation.
The Players’ Union requires a substantial increase in the salary cap as in 1995-96, and the league cannot issue a maximum salary regulation to limit the maximum salary of players...
It is worth mentioning that the current president of the player union is Gorilla Ewing. His philosophy is different from that of a smiling assassin, and he is more on the side of the super giant...
The League Management Committee is reluctant to raise the salary cap. Because the salary cap is increased, the bosses naturally need to spend more money to run the team. It is easy to lose money. Stern naturally does not want to see the bosses lose money.
And the management committee is also preparing to introduce a maximum salary regulation to limit the maximum salary of players...
One is the salary cap, and the top salary regulation is the focus of this salary negotiation.
Jordan has been in the league for so long, he knows the bottom line of the league, the salary cap may be improved, but the maximum salary regulations must be introduced, this is the bottom line of the management committee...
Once the maximum salary regulations are introduced, Jordan's salary will definitely not be 30 million, because the salary cap is less than 30 million...
It may be sharply reduced to Reggie Miller's 10 million annual salary level, and it is even more likely to be worse than Reggie Miller.
Think of Jordan with an annual salary of 30 million this year, but only a few million larger next year. This gap is really too big. I am afraid that it will be unacceptable for any player.
Think about your annual salary may not be as good as Reggie Miller, old rogues can accept?
Simply stop playing...
You can't make millions of dollars by doing anything.
...
If Richard really reached a deal with Larry Bird in Jordan's mind ~ EbookFREE.me ~ really could threaten the bull's dominance.
Jordan is more and more irritable...
Because the door to the trading market is closed, there is still a week!
Whether these two rogue coaches made a py transaction, as they guessed, depends on the next week...
Thinking of this, Jordan still has the heart to play the All-Star Game. In his view, ten All-Star MVPs are not as good as a championship.
...
"Beep beep!" The referee blew the whistle at the end of the game.
The Eastern All-Star team defeated the Western All-Star team 127:116...
This result did not exceed Richard's expectations. The eastern backcourt is tough, and the chances of the center of the All-Star game are too few. Naturally, the eastern lineup has the advantage.
