『Chapter error, click here to report』

Clippers owner Donald Sterling has been very arrogant lately, and the Clippers reached the Western Conference Finals last season, overpowering the Lakers, and he feels like the king of Los Angeles.

As a bargaining party with the players, Sterling has had a lot of arrogant remarks in the past year; As the current most senior boss in the NBA, Sterling is becoming the leader and leader of the diehards.

In addition to being dissatisfied with the skyrocketing salaries of those, the die-hard owner is also full of envy and hatred for a giant team like the Lakers. In February of this year, after hearing that Time Warner and the Lakers signed a 20-year, 3 billion super contract, a certain owner in the East asked Stern to immediately convene a joint meeting of the owners to "get a piece of the pie no matter what."

As a result, the elder Bass, who was already seriously ill, was named and asked to attend the joint meeting of the bosses held in New York, and the old Bass had to go with his illness.

When his peers saw him, they cried all kinds of poverty, saying that the skyrocketing wages of players had caused many teams to lose money, and Old Bass smiled slightly: "Is it? I give Kobe 20 million a year, but Kobe can bring me 70 million in value. ”

After this group of bosses choked on the old Buss's sentence "Kobe Bryant can make 70 million a year", Sterling began to talk about the sky-high contract signed by the Lakers and Time Warner in February, hoping that Buss can share everyone's food. Sterling's first speech immediately caused a lot of talk and discussion in the audience, and Bucks owner Kerr immediately proposed that the Lakers should give 30% of the proceeds to other teams.

In the face of the gossip of his peers, Bas just smiled faintly: "As long as any of you are full-time bosses, you can take 30% from me." The bosses were speechless for a moment, because these bosses all have their own main businesses, and only the Buss family makes money by running the Lakers.

That's the fight between the NBA bosses. Many people say that the Lakers' success is due to the big market in Los Angeles, but this view is unfair to the Buss family. Buss was a real estate businessman in his early years, like Sterling, and he gradually withdrew from the real estate industry in order to build his sports empire, which led to the glory of the Lakers dynasty.

After the meeting, Sterling came to trouble Yang Rui and Thomas again, asking why they didn't sign a super contract with the Clippers like Time Warner and monopolize the Clippers' live broadcast rights?

"It's not time yet." Thomas easily turned Sterling down.

"Why?" Sterling was unhappy, and he was willing to let Facebook get involved with the Clippers, just to make a fortune and hug the thighs of the Big Mac.

Thomas explained: "We'll have to wait and see for a couple of years, and I think the Bass family made a bad move, and the Warner contract seemed to be profitable, but it was very damaging to the Los Angeles fans. All channels that broadcast Lakers games will be paid at that time, and the 600,000 viewers in the Los Angeles area don't own the service. That is, if they don't pay, they won't be able to watch a single Lakers game other than the games that are broadcast live across the country. ”

"Are you thinking about the fans? Getting more fans to watch the game on TV? Sterling snorted.

"No, we should seize this opportunity, the Lakers who have been completely suppressed in a few years can't raise their heads, and turn Lakers fans into Clippers fans, this is a longer-term benefit, learn from the Lakers now, engage in monopoly, do you want the Clippers to help the Lakers share the scolding of fans?"

"......" Sterling was speechless.

Since signing that big contract, there are indeed many fans who scold the Lakers.

One of the more famous old fans said angrily in a radio interview: "The reason why the Lakers are Lakers is because of the support of our fans." Now they've forgotten about Los Angeles and become Time Warner Lakers! ”

In Yang Rui's previous life, the Lakers began to weaken, and the most attractive fans in Los Angeles in 3 years were already the Clippers.

The real reason, of course, is not for the fans, but wants to kick Sterling out before considering taking this step, if he signs a long-term contract broadcast rights, the value of the Clippers will also increase, and it will be more expensive and difficult to acquire.

Facebook first helped the Clippers raise the price, and then gave Sterling more money, how can there be such a pie-in-the-sky good thing?

Raheem Sterling can only continue to devote himself to negotiations, tearing apart with a group of young owners and players. He always talks nonsense, which is easy to resent people, but he never gets tired of it.

Yang Rui suspects that if Sterling continues like this, he may not be able to wait until 204 to sell the team.

After Scarlett's voice acting, she also began to stay at home.

What makes Yang Rui happy is that Stana no longer has conflicts with Scarlett, and she is a bit like a family. It's not pretending, Scarlett has a big belly, she can't fight, she can't scold, she is pregnant, everyone has to listen to her.

If something happens to the child if it is torn apart as usual, Stana can't afford to take responsibility, and she's not an evil woman.

The release time of the movie is staggered, and we will have to wait until next year. The story is simple, it's all special effects, and it will be released by the end of this year.

In addition to entertaining and relaxing at home, Yang Rui also acted as a spiritual mentor, and their eldest sister Jennifer Aniston broke up again.

This year, Jennifer and her famous filmmaker boyfriend Justin Therox had a hot fight, and the two were exposed many times to date and dine together, but after only a few months of love, their relationship was in crisis.

In addition, Jennifer's ex-husband Brad Pitt is preparing to have a wedding with his girlfriend Angelina Jolie this month, and she has been hit really hard lately and likes to spend time with friends.

As soon as her brain is hot, Jennifer is going to devote her energy to her career, discuss public relations with Thomas, and prepare to use it to rush for next year's Oscars.

Thomas had a period with her, and neither of them took it seriously, but they got along very happily.

Thomas is also in favor of doing so, and is ready to play something new so that everyone doesn't say they're only going to make commercial movies that cheat money. In fact, it is also a commercial movie, mainly relying on special effects to attract people, in addition to special effects, Stana took off her spacesuit to show off her long legs is also a highlight.

In mid-July, the two sides engaged in another small negotiation, which ended quickly without any agreement being reached and Stern was not present.

Some NBA players are starting to look for a career in other countries, with news reports that Turkish side Besiktas are in talks with Kobe Bryant for a possible contract, with Bobcats point guard Deron Williams already signing with the team.

Soon, Eagles center Zaza Pachulia also reached an agreement with Besiktas, where Allen Iverson played last season.

All they need to do is report to the club at the end of the month or early September, and the contract also includes a clause that says "once the shutdown is over, they can return to the NBA."

There is also news that Yao Ming will play for the Shanghai men's basketball team before the end of the shutdown, which makes Chinese fans very excited.

The American media also revealed: Kobe Bryant may briefly join the Shanghai men's basketball team and partner Yao Ming again! However, it is difficult for a large number of BA players to come to China to "work part-time".

According to the relevant regulations, NBA players who are currently under contract must obtain a license from FIBA to sign with overseas teams. As we all know, FIBA and the NBA don't have a good relationship, so the former doesn't offer licenses to NBA players who have contracts. Of course, these players can participate in some exhibition tours, or form a team to play on an improvised basis.

This summer, most of the players can only play for free, mainly for entertainment and exercise.
