Back to the team the next day, Tang Tian directly held an internal team meeting. In addition to the management, Casey and Kassel were also participants.
At the meeting, he directly made his decision and explained the reason.
"This is the best decision."
Key figures such as Jones, Casey, and Kassel all expressed almost identical opinions.
During the meeting, Tang Tian also spoke with Gilbert.
"You are the general manager of the team and you can make any decision." This is Gilbert's reply to him.
After a two-hour meeting, the Cavaliers held an official press conference in preparation to announce the Cavaliers' final decision.
This was a conference without a national live broadcast, but the scene was still crowded by reporters.
In addition to not having a national live broadcast, this conference has a very big feature. The front row of the conference site is reserved for local reporters in Cleveland.
Officially, this decision, Cleveland fans have the right to know the first time.
"Given the current trading plans given by the teams, and considering LeBron's past contributions to the city, our team made this final decision after a long period of discussion.
Tang Tian didn't want to cover it, but at the beginning of the meeting, he took the initiative to raise the issues that everyone cares most.
All reporters at the scene looked straight at Tang Tian.
This decision really touched everyone's heart.
"We are ready to trade LeBron to Phoenix. Negotiations will begin soon and we will bring back a good return for Cleveland."
When Tang Tian announced the Cavaliers' final result, the entire scene exploded directly.
The following reporters all talked eagerly and kept talking.
Tang Tian didn't stop this either, waiting until the argument stopped slowly.
"Why the Suns, not the Heat?" Asked the Cleveland reporter sitting in the center of the front row.
If you pay attention, this is the person who asked the question at the Rich Paul Press Conference.
In fact, if you take a deeper look, he will be a live reporter on the side of the loan stadium for 5 years, called Brian Wicks.
"Brian," Tang Tian said with a smile. "You need to wait for a roll call to ask a question."
Wicks didn't expect Tang Tian to remember himself. He was flattered and immediately said with an apology: "Sorry, I'm just a little worried."
Tang Tian nodded, and then answered, "Because the Suns provided our best offer, as for the Heat."
He paused here: "In this transaction, in addition to the rewards we can get, we must also consider our competitors. We do not want to trade LeBron to the Eastern team, nor do we want to trade to Western Conference playoff team. "
Tang Tian's words were very straightforward without any concealment.
The Heat already have two giants, and then trade James over, isn't this the intention to make enemies for themselves, and can't get over the championship!
The same is true in the West. If James joins with Kobe or Durant, it will be another dynasty team.
No need!
Tang Tian's straightforwardness was unexpected, but he was telling the truth.
This seems to be well understood.
"Will this be unfair to LeBron? We all know that LeBron has played for the city for 9 years, bringing the Cavaliers two championships, and the Cavaliers failed to trade him to what he wanted. Go to the team. "The second reporter asked was espn, who asked directly when he stood up.
When Tang Tian heard this question, he did not answer it immediately, but smiled unconsciously.
The reporter's question raised his anger yesterday.
"I don't deny LeBron's contribution to this city, but was it me who brought the championship ring to the Cavaliers?" Tang Tian said.
The reporter froze.
Other reporters were also stunned.
But the Cleveland reporters in the front row nodded consciously.
James has contributed to the city for 7 years with the Cavaliers, but the Cavaliers also fulfilled all his requirements to build the team.
However, they did not bring the championship.
However, after Tang Tian joined the team, he not only took a group of rookie veterans to win the championship unexpectedly, but also created an unprecedented three-man dynasty lineup for the team.
If it weren't for James to leave temporarily, let alone two, five or ten would not be impossible!
"We chose to trade LeBron to other teams, and it was based on the premise that he had contributed so much to this city." Tang Tian calmed down and said.
He was telling the truth, compared to trading James to the Suns, leaving James and letting the latter sit on the bench for a season is the hardest way.
But the relationship between the two parties has not really deteriorated to that point.
And from the perspective of benefits, zero return is not what his general manager wants to see.
"Rich Paul said LeBron needed a bigger stage, and I think it's far-fetched for this reason. What was born of it?" The third reporter who stood up was a Cleveland reporter who asked when he got up.
"The difference between us and LeBron is the status of the team. LeBron hopes to play a more important role in the team, but the Cavaliers are a team that competes within the team. I will not deliberately suppress the outstanding performance. Players will not increase their team status for no reason, which is not fair to other players. "Tang Tian frankly replied.
Rich Paul has dressed James as a perfect role, and made the Cavaliers a target of public criticism, he certainly did not do it.
He will not exaggerate, but will tell the truth.
This answer made the already restless scene even more explosive ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Rich Paul said that there is no contradiction between James and the Cavaliers, but in the end, the contradiction has always existed! It's just that they choose not to say it!
And Tang Tian himself said.
It is true that James is the spokesperson of the Alliance, but Tang Tian is the godfather of the dynasty with five crowns in hand, and he will not lie!
"Is this decision of the team the result of discussions with the LeBron team? Do they agree?" The reporter from tnt asked.
"No, this is a unilateral decision. We will notify LeBron's team as soon as possible after the press conference."
After Tang Tian answered, he added another sentence.
"In fact, we have been out of touch with him and his team since LeBron's absence due to injury, so this is also our only option."
After finishing this sentence, the reporter group underneath finally exploded.
Prior to the news conference of Rich Paul did not mention this and related matters, James left the Cavaliers seems to get together easily, but this news conference of the Cavaliers completely negated all.
Contradictions exist.
Negotiations did not.
The Cavaliers were the victims of this incident, and trading James was helpless.
this is the truth.
Looking at the reporter who fry the pan below, Tang Tian was very calm.
He doesn't have any prejudice against James, maybe James didn't participate in this whole thing, just let his team handle it.
But as a result, James's team really did a terrible job.
He is not the kind of head coach who can't win the championship without leaving, not to mention the general manager who will silently backfire.
So, this is his final decision.
