Basketball Fanatic: Genius Is on the Left

On July 9, 2010, the history of the NBA was changed forever at this moment.

LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, the core bosses of the three teams decided to join forces with Miami, and the most powerful Big Three in history struck.

For a time, the wind was surging.

The Clevelands, of course, bore the brunt of it. The hometown hero decided to play elsewhere, and Cleveland fans naturally felt hurt. It's like a lover who has been in love for 7 years and publicly said the day before that he will love you for the rest of his life suddenly ran away with someone else. There may not be any way for Clevelandians to take the news with equanimity.

So any platform that allows fans to speak up has been full of insults and disdain for James.

"coward!"

"Spicy chicken, why did I fan such a thing!"

"James will be the enemy of my life in the future! I see him and scold him once!"

…

All kinds of insults were obviously not enough for the anger of the common people. One hour after James' TV broadcast, James's jersey was burned in public on the streets of Cleveland.

Two hours later, Gilberto, the Cavaliers owner who felt betrayed, released an open letter. In the open letter, he called James' behavior a "cowardly betrayal" and a "selfish display of shame"...

To be honest, the extreme behavior of Cavaliers fans is indeed a bit excessive, but the mood of Cavaliers fans is still understood by many people. After all, this decision also makes many people feel angry and incomprehensible.

Like... league president David Stern!

He was very angry and had a headache. He didn't understand why James made such a choice, which directly deviates from the theme of one person, one city that he has promoted for so many years.

In fact, before James announced his "decision one" on TV, Stern had already heard the wind. He also tried to block the deal. After the block was unsuccessful, he also tried to persuade James' team, Don't be so arrogant, even speaking on social media is better than doing live broadcasts in the United States on TV!

"The First Cause of All Realms"

However, the proposal was also rejected by James' team.

Not only that, James' team apparently planned this for a long time, they even planned to beautify "Decision 1" into a donation event, they originally decided to donate $1 million to charity.

However, they obviously underestimated the influence and destructive power of James joining the Heat to form the Big Three.

In addition to the Cleveland fans who have been stimulated crazy, fans everywhere have turned on the scolding mode, and even celebrities and celebrities have come out to criticize James' behavior.

For a time, James and the Miami Heat became the public enemy of the whole people.

Barkley said humorously in the live broadcast room: "This may be the first one in history. Before the game, there are countless fans who hope they don't win a game and quickly disband the team."

In this regard, David Stern, of course, also has a headache.

In order to solve this problem, he hurriedly convened a meeting with the league’s top executives. The main issue was how to eliminate the negative impact on the league’s image, and at the same time, he also had to re-evaluate James, who the league had previously championed.

No way, the impact of this is really too big, even if the Big Three are gone, all three of them still have their salaries reduced, which means that they are not only in a group, but also have salary space to sign...

This also makes other teams play!

This undoubtedly brought an extremely bad atmosphere to the entire league, and it was extremely deviating from Stern's overall strategy.

But Stern didn't want to just abolish the brand that he had finally cultivated, so he was also entangled in how to face the Heat in the new season.

But no matter how entangled, such an atmosphere must be punished, so Stern first deprived the Heat of most of the publicity resources for next season. Of course, now this Heat may not need the league to help publicize, but this does not The important thing is that the gesture must be made.

Then, of course, is the question of how to eliminate the negative impact, which is also the hardest question, because the impact now seems to be really too big!

However, it is not that the league does not understand people. Since James has fallen, another flag is just raised, and it just so happens that this flag has been raised.

"It was decided that next season, we will put most of James' resources on the Knicks and Zuoli." Stern made a final decision and recovered James' resources.

Zuo Li, who was still on a long-distance flight on the plane, didn't know that the formation of the Big Three this time would give him a higher status in the alliance.

Of course, it's not that there are no voices of opposition. For example, Xiao Hua, the vice president at the time, felt that it was no big deal for the three giants to form a group. big flag.

As a result, it was rejected by a group of people, and Stern did not need to do it himself.

How much influence the rise of Zuo Li has brought to the alliance this year, and how much income it brings, are you blind!

Xiao Hua was dissatisfied, but it was useless, so the matter was settled...

At this time, James, who was in Miami, didn't know, because this transfer made the league change its strategy for him.

Of course, he will know sooner or later.

But at this time, LeBron has already felt the pressure brought by this decision. He doesn't dare to turn on the TV at all now, and he doesn't even dare to surf the Internet, because as long as he goes up, 100% of what he sees is scolding. his.

This made James, who was accustomed to listening to everyone's praise, praise, and approval, exploded in his mentality. He already felt a little bit that he had made a mistake in this step.

"Maybe... I should stay." James thought while holding his head, yes, at this moment, he regretted it a little.

You must know that he is a person who cares about his personal image very much, but this time, his image that he has worked so hard for for many years collapsed in an instant, which made him a little at a loss.

"Listen, LeBron!"

At the critical moment, Lai Onros, still his agent and the driving force behind the Big Three this time, grabbed James' shoulder and shook it violently. He wanted to shake James up:

"The road has gone, there is no turning back, and public opinion is temporary. After winning the championship, all doubts will disappear."

"What you have to do now is not to sit in the room and sigh, but to stand up, grab the basketball, walk up to the **** court, and win the championship!"

"Moreover, the championship is already in front of you. The three of you are extremely powerful. You stand on the left, Howard, Kobe, you will all be trampled under your feet! Forget 2008, how the Celtics three giants were destroyed. allied?"

"Trust me, the moment the three of you decide to join forces, the alliance is over!"

Leonrose's words made James look up.

Yup!

He came here to win the championship. As long as he wins the championship, these negative comments will disappear. If he builds his own dynasty in Miami, who else will say that he is a newspaper group? They will only admit themselves. of greatness.

As for winning the championship...

Isn't this obvious!
