Chapter 299: [Jordan comeback, All-Star team]

In July, some famous things happened, such as China's successful bid for the Olympics. E┡ Novel WWWㄟW． Ω1XIAOOSHUO. COM
There are also some things that haven't been born. For example, Jordan was not broken by Artest in the Bulls summer training camp. It's just a lot of media news, with pictures, saying that Jordan competed with McGrady in the training camp and still has All-Star strength.
People have speculated that Jordan is coming back.
The Bulls made a deal to send Ron Mersell to the Pacers, only to return to the next round of draft picks and cash. Some Bulls fans also speculated that the loss-making deal was to make room for Jordan, Artest went to the bench, and Jordan would lead the Bulls with Tracy McGrady and Brand.
This is of course only wishful thinking of the Bulls fans. At that time, Jordan wanted to buy the shares of the Bulls as a magician and entered the main management. The boss let him get away. He and the Bulls had fallen out early, and they would not choose the Bulls for any comeback. He participated in the bull training camp, in fact, he wanted to hit the face of the bull boss Rainsdorf.
see it? Uncle Ben is still very powerful, now come back, not you. I'm mad at you. Jordan is almost this kind of mentality.
Therefore, if Artest broke Jordan's ribs, he might get a lot of bonuses...
What happened in Yang Rui's previous life and later life proved that the bull management's approach was far-sighted.
After Jordan cooperated with the Wizards owner Pauline as a non-player to buy shares, the Wizards did have a sweet spot in a short time, and the tickets were sold. But in less than a month, the fans were not interested. Why pay for a manager sitting in the top management box?
Moreover, Jordan is really not a manager. He never works seriously, and his vision is even worse.
In August, the Heat began to rebuild, Tim Hardaway signed and then joined the Mavericks, the salary dropped from 120 million to 3.36 million. The Heat only got one second-round pick.
In February of this year, the Mavericks changed from the Wizards to Juwan Howard through a deal, plus Nowitzki, Finley, Nash and others, became the Western Championship title.
After introducing multiple players, the Lakers walked a star. "Cobra" Horace Grant joined the Magic on a three-year contract. He also got the ring in the Lakers, no pursuit of the championship, want to make more money before retirement. As a result, the Lakers lineup does not look so scary.
Yang Rui spent very quiet this holiday, eating, drinking and having fun every day.
Even if he shouted the championship slogan, he could not attract the media's attention. The most important thing people are paying attention to is Jordan's comeback.
Jordan officially signed the Wizards for two years and showed off his new No. 23 jersey.
He said in an interview: "Working as an administrator is like being imprisoned to me. Even if my manager has a box of Cuban cigars on my desk, I still have a suV car, a dedicated driver, and 4 in the bank. Billions of dollars in deposits and real estate, but there is no nBa competition."
The reporter asked: "What is the main reason for your comeback?"
Jordan replied: "I want to play against Kobe, Carter and others. Sitting in the office has not brought me much fun. Since the beginning of this year, I have considered coming back."
The Wizards traded Juwan Howard, Rod Strickland, and Richmond's departure last season. The team no longer has a ball veteran, and Jordan's comeback is the core.
In addition, the team has the new top pick Kwame Brown, the excellent off-point shooting guard Richard Hamilton, Jordan as long as the Wizards into the playoffs, is a perfect comeback.
The Wizards immediately benefited from this. Their situation last season was still half alive, and the stadium's attendance was only about 50%. Next season, they will become one of the most watched teams.
In the United States, there are 2 major TV networks that broadcast nBa games. For many years, the Wizards have not queued up for the broadcast program. Last year, only 11 games that they participated in were broadcast. They still watched the face of the opponents Raptors and 76ers. on. After the news of Jordan's comeback came out, the two television networks immediately came to the door. The number of nBc broadcasts will increase from 11 to 2o; Turner will broadcast 15.
No one thought that Jordan's comeback was for money. Jordan is the little boss of the Wizards. He owns about 1% of the equity. Because nBa stipulates that no player can own the team's shares, Jordan will not only sell his equity in the Wizards, but also resigned from the team's basketball department.
In this way, even if the Wizards' earnings increase, there is nothing wrong with Jordan. He made the final decision, just like the famous nBa slogan: "ILikethisgame"?!
Basketball is indeed a very attractive sport, but unfortunately Yang Rui does not work well, nor does his skill work. Otherwise, his first choice must be to play on his own rather than as a coach.
In mid-September, Yang Rui and Stanna returned to Toronto together, and the new season was about to begin again.
Stanna is not in a hurry to work. After the "Resident Evil" is released, if she responds well, she will get more rewards in the future. Now she is looking for her bad movies that want to rub the heat.
At the end of September, on the media day of the Raptors, Yang Rui reported to the arena and saw all the players. The Raptors didn't find anyone to play in the preseason. That's the 15 people in the summer.
Andrei Kirilenko is wearing clean sportswear, flat-headed and very energetic. He is really 2o6cm tall and very thin. At first glance, he feels that he can't fight.
Kirilenko, who was just 2 years old, weighed only 98 kilograms when he was on the side. It would be a little too risky to make him a guest forward.
When his agent communicated with Glenn, he particularly emphasized the language problem, so the team arranged a Russian interpreter for him in advance, and came today.
Yang Rui and Kirilenko shook hands and briefly talked in English. Now his Russian English is too bad. If he wants to focus on training him this season, he will eventually be good or bad, depending on the level of translation.
Yang Rui went to Billups again and asked, "Changxi, how are you feeling now?"
"I'm completely well. I didn't do vigorous activities in the summer. I just practiced shooting. I must be careful this season and I will never hurt again." Billups assured with a smile.
"Well~EbookFREE.me~ Health is the most important thing. I will control your playing time. What you have to do is to stay efficient." Yang Rui smiled.
Billups' playing time is easy to control, because the team has Tony Parker, Parker as long as he plays his own advantage in the rookie season, it is an excellent substitute.
Yang Rui and everyone greeted each other, and the players took the core makeup photos. This time one more person was added, Billups, Reed, Carter, O'Neal, Miller.
Reed performed well last season, Yang Rui believes that as long as he is not injured, this season can at least guarantee the previous level.
The Raptors were better off the bench than last season, and with two new potential players, Yang Rui felt that the lineup was no worse than the 1999-2ooo season. Because there are too many strongmen, it is not easy to allocate playing time. Zimmerin-Jones and Haplin like Kirilenko and Hadlin all overlap a little bit.
At this time, Yang Rui did not regret letting go of Christie. The main reason for the loss last season was player injury. Christie also reached the finals at best, but the Lakers did not.
This season the Eastern Conference will be fierce and there are many strong teams, but Yang Rui believes that the strongest team must be the Raptors. If all players are at their peak, this is the All-Star team!
