Chapter 488 Seems to Have Found a Solution

To tell the truth, Li Liang is just talking, how can he ruin the NBA?

How did he know.

Could it be that he and Stern died together?

The NBA is not the NBA of Stern or any president.

To put it bluntly, the NBA president is just the steward of 30 teams. The president is the head of the steward, with management power but no ownership.

The real behind-the-scenes masters are the owners of thirty teams.

The U.S. is different from China in this regard. The leaders on the stage in China are often the ultimate leaders.

On the other hand, what is on the table in the United States is often just a white glove, and the real predators are always hidden underwater.

This is also where the Yankees are clever.

To put it bluntly, Li Liang is just a part-time worker, a relatively awesome wage earner, a tool for the bosses to make money.

No matter how much Ballmer likes Li Liang, he is a fan of Li Liang. According to Li Liang, the boss is still the boss, and the worker is still the worker.

By this time, Li Liang had a deeper understanding of what his father Gan Guoqing said to him back then.

He didn't want Li Liang to play in the NBA because he didn't want him to be just a wage earner, because he could obviously be a boss.

Of course, life is not only called life if you are a boss. Life is fair to a certain extent, and no one can hide from birth, old age, sickness and death.

For Li Liang, destroying the NBA is more like a joke.

When I said it in a whim at the time, the past is also in the past.

Coming out of the system, Li Liang fell into a deep sleep.

But how much truth is told through jokes?

...

The next day, when the team rested, Li Liang found Wei Dazhi and got some information about Earl Monroe from him.

Wei Dazhi now follows the Clippers all the way and reports on the team's games. This guy can be regarded as an encyclopedia of NBA history, and there is almost nothing he doesn't understand.

From him, Li Liang had a general understanding of Monroe.

It turned out that Monroe asked the Bullets to raise his salary because he hated the low salary.

The Bullets owner refused, so he wanted to trade Monroe to the Knicks, because only the Knicks could afford the transfer fee. (The NBA had a transfer fee system at the time.)

The Knicks were the Bullets' mortal enemy at the time, and once Monroe was traded there, it was estimated that he would be scolded on both sides.

So Monroe succumbed, but he was forced to be sent to the Knicks by his boss Bolin in the end.

Later, the Knicks fired five bullets in a row in the playoffs, beating the Washingtonians bloody and scolding.

But in the end, the Washingtonians won their own championship in 1978 and could hold their heads proudly over Monroe.

In fact, Monroe did nothing wrong. As an employee, he just wanted more money.

In the 1970s, racial discrimination was still very serious in the United States, and NBA wages were not as high as they are now.

As a black player, Monroe had to think about his life in old age.

But the fans at the time didn't think so, and the team controlled the direction of public opinion in the sports world. When a player left, the player would always be scolded, and the team had nothing to do with it.

It was not until decades later, when Bohlin passed away, that the two sides settled down.

The Bullets had become the Wizards, and then picked a random date to retire Monroe's jersey.

On the day of his retirement, there was only sparse applause in the arena. Monroe stood up from the bench and waved to the audience, but did not get any response.

A once-urban hero, a black pearl beloved by fans, is the result of this oblivion.

Li Liang sighed inwardly when he heard Monroe's story from Wei Dazhi's mouth.

In the ruthless time, too many things will be forgotten, even the people who forget others will be forgotten.

But there are some things that Li Liang will never forget.

"As far as I am concerned, let me ask you, did you tell me that I manipulated the Clippers deal and called Ballmer?"

After the Livingston deal a few days ago, there were rumors that Li Liang manipulated the team's deal.

Li Liang suspected at the time that besides Wei Dazhi, who else could have made up such a thing?

Sure enough, as soon as Wei Dazhi was asked this question, he stuttered and couldn't speak for a long time.

In the end, under Li Liangzhuo's gaze, he had to hey twice, and said: "I... I just released some news casually to increase your enthusiasm. Hey, I didn't talk nonsense, the Clippers traded, Ballmer I was going to call you to ask for instructions. I did this to create your great image. Look, who in the league is as arrogant as you, who can influence the team's trade. Even James, it was when he was in the Cavaliers. Do you see that he can still talk when he arrives in the Heat?"

Li Liang didn't speak.

Wei Dazhi knew that it was not easy to get over it, so he had no choice but to say, "Hey, I just want to release some news about you to increase the popularity. You know, reporters have to eat, so how can you waste your time if you don't get some hot news? You are now the number one hot spot in the NBA, no matter what you do, there will be a lot of traffic. The United States plus China, no one can compare to you."

Wei Dazhi has now completely turned into a media paparazzi who succumbed to traffic.

At the beginning, he also wholeheartedly said that he would be the most professional NBA reporter, provide in-depth content and reports, give a comprehensive analysis, analyze the culture and history of the entire NBA, and bring people a completely different NBA experience.

The results of it? This kind of headline party was also started, which shocked the Ministry, and with the help of Li Liang, a high-quality and monopolized resource, it was sold everywhere.

But Li Liang didn't bother to care about him, everyone had the right to choose their own path.

Li Liang didn't pursue this matter any further, but asked Wei Dazhi, "Dazhi, tell me, will the NBA go bankrupt?"

Wei Dazhi said: "Closed? What are you thinking about, unless there is a world war, but during the world war, the NBL league in the United States did not go on as usual, it's just that many players participated in the war and couldn't play."

Li Liangdao: "I just ask, just ask casually, do you think the fortress can be breached from the inside?"

Wei Dazhi thought for a while and said, "Hmm...unless there are more than one match-fixers, but you said that NBA players, even if they are substitutes, are paid hundreds of thousands of dollars. What are they doing for match-fixing? Oh, don't think about it, hey, tell me how you train, in fact, many people are very concerned about this thing now!"

Li Liang ignored Wei Dazhi, because Wei Dazhi's words reminded him, yes, if someone cheated, the NBA would be ruined.

But what Wei Dazhi said is correct, no one has a reason for match-fixing, and it is even more impossible for him, Li Liang, to do match-fixing.

Besides, if he played match-fixing by himself, it was because he blew himself up and ruined his reputation, and nothing happened to the NBA.

Li Liang thought about it carefully, and decided to bury this idea in his mind for the time being.

His current goal is still to become the best player in history!

...

On January 25, the Clippers challenged the Toronto Raptors away.

Both sides played well at the start. The Clippers were as slow as ever, and they were beaten 8:0 by the Raptors as soon as they came up. The Raptors hit two three-pointers from the outside.

One from Rose and one from Lowry.

Subsequently, Barnes received a pass from Collison and responded with a three-pointer to break the deadlock of the Clippers.

The subsequent game slowly turned into a soaring point battle between the Clippers Crawford and the Raptors Rose.

Rose may have stolen Li Liang's shooting bag tonight, and how he shot from outside is surprisingly accurate.

The audience hit an astonishing 10 three-pointers!

During the timeout, even Li Liang was amazed, "It turns out that this is how it feels to be an opponent against myself. It really is not good."

Look, what is this saying?

But Li Liang is qualified to say this, because under his leadership, the Clippers have been suppressing their opponents since the second quarter no matter how well Rose played.

Seeing that Crawford is in excellent condition, Li Liang kept using his defensive attractiveness to play balls, screens, and pick-and-rolls for Crawford.

Crawford hit the fairy ball in a row, the kind of shots where the body has lost its balance, and scored several times.

Li Liang looked at Paul on the sidelines, and really wanted to tell him, did you see, follow me, they will be better.

Rose played the best game of his career in this game. No one from the outside line could defend him, and he scored 51 points in one fell swoop!

Broke Carter's regular-season scoring record for the Toronto Raptors.

It's a pity that the Raptors still lost to the Clippers by 6 points at 109:115 at home.

The Clippers once again avoided a losing streak.

Li Liang quietly scored a triple-double of 21 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds.

But for triple-doubles, Li Liang really didn't like it. The triple-doubles he had accumulated should be in double digits, and the system didn't show it at all!

What's the matter, do I have to average a triple-double to be interesting?

Is triple-double just so worthless?

Sima system, there is no way to say.
