The Godfather of Basketball

"Sorry." Tang Tian picked up the phone and went to the toilet to pick up the phone.

"Don, where have you been these past few days, I haven't been able to contact you." Alexander's tone was a little unhappy.

"I went out without a cell phone." Tang Tian knew that Gilbert was still waiting, to make a long story short.

"Are you free now? Come to my manor? I will send a driver to pick you up."

"Late later, I have something now."

"Something? I'll wait with Darrell." Alexander guessed.

"Late later, I'm not at home now," Tang Tian continued, and it would be a little awkward if Gilbert and Alexander hit each other.

"Okay, you're notified immediately."

"Ok."

Tang Tian hung up the phone, then went straight to the office.

"Sorry." Tang Tian set his phone aside.

"It's all right."

"Did you just ask me to be the general manager of Cleveland?" Tang Tian said and sat down.

"Yes, general manager, part-time head coach, the team will give you the biggest decision. Of course, if you feel too busy, we can let you only be responsible for the player's operation, and leave the rest to the vice general manager You can also choose by yourself. Of course, you still have the position of general manager. "

As soon as Gilbert said, Tang Tian's face changed a lot.

This sincerity is a bit big.

A glance at James, who nodded no doubt.

It seems that this decision was made by him.

He was hesitating.

Because the Cavaliers' mess is really bad.

"Coach, you said, the future is mine. If you have been with the Rockets, I think you have a little difficulty." James said with a smile.

Tang Tian froze and then laughed.

Two years ago, he made a joke that James really kept putting on new ones.

But if you think about it, going to the Cavaliers may not be a bad choice.

With James' team, casually engaging in the East is also a guarantee, and so far, it is the most sincere.

"If I really go to Cleveland, I have two requirements." Tang Tian said.

"You say." Gilbert was so pleased to hear Tang Tian say such a thing.

"I need the Cavaliers to rotten for a year and fight for the 2010 draft." Tang Tian said that the situation of the Cavaliers in his previous life is very clear, because the management has been afraid to break the deadlock, and the playoffs are weak every year. Eventually led to James leaving.

In other words, the Cavaliers have now reached a stage where they can't break. If Gilbert doesn't agree, even if he has good faith, he is really not interested in going to this muddy water.

Gilbert was hesitating, and he looked back at James.

Next year James has a contract option. If James jumps out of the contract directly, he will really lose money.

James' commercial value is far more valuable than a championship trophy, and it is much more.

Tang Tian also knew about Gilbert's concerns, and then said: "My second requirement is that LeBron must leave the contract next season and sign a long-term contract with the team, and it must be a written guarantee."

Tang Tian is very clear about how noisy James ’decision is in the past life. If James really regrets it, he will embarrass him if he regrets and pats his ass.

James' eyes blinked, he didn't rush to speak.

He is a businessman and thinks far more than the average player. The championship can make his business value greater, but whether to renew the contract with the Cavaliers will also affect his business value.

Three people, around a table and three cups of coffee, are not talking about team issues, but business issues.

Seeing that James had never spoken, Tang Tian was a little impatient.

It was Gilbert and James who sought him, not them.

"I agree." At that moment, James finally spoke. "I will renew the Cavaliers for at least three years next year, with a written guarantee."

This should be the answer to maximizing business given his intelligent brain thinking.

Three years?

But that's enough. In fact, Tang Tian, ​​as a traverser, made him stay in a team for more than three years.

"I will give you a reply tomorrow." Tang Tian nodded at the end. He has just returned, and he must also listen to the plans of other teams.

After all, he is now the most proactive person.

"No problem." It's all about this. Gilbert and James also know that there is a good chance, and Tang Tian has to answer it immediately.

Gilbert and James walked for more than half an hour. Tang Tiancai picked up his cell phone and sent a text message to Alexander, saying that he was free.

About half an hour later, Alexander and Morey appeared in his room.

"Don, you'd better say hello to us before you go out. Mr. Alexander has been trying to contact you." After entering the door and sitting down, Morey said a little bit complaining.

Tang Tian smiled and didn't speak. Why did he say hello? Morey still sees him as the Rockets coach?

This tone sounds very unpleasant.

Alexander noticed Tang Tian's expression, immediately reached out to signal Morey not to speak, and said with a smile: "Don, the management has made a decision. If you and the team reach a multi-year contract extension, they will also appoint you as a team at the same time. Head of operations. "

Multi-year contract?

Tang Tian still didn't speak.

"That is to say, you have the leading role in the player transactions of the team in the new season, Darrell will cooperate with you in this regard." Alexander went on to say that during the time of Tang Tian's absence, he has successfully convinced Morey.

"Yes." Morey echoed ~ www.readwn.com ~.

"Then if I ever encounter the so-called trade player in the future, can I directly refuse it?" Tang Tian said, looking at Morey.

"If the players are really important," Morey said after thinking about it.

Tang Tian laughed after hearing that, the head of the so-called dribbling department seemed to be a mere job, and things that really met the transaction still had to be discussed, and there was no change from before.

"Okay, I already have a decision." Tang Tian said with a smile.

Seeing Tang Tian's expression, Alexander said with a smile: "Yeah, staying with the Rockets is good for all of us, to win more championships, you have the opportunity to chase the footsteps of Auerbach, Rockets players They will also be excited about their stay. The Rockets will be the Celtics of the new century. "

Alexander said more and more excited, this is a situation that everyone is happy, and it is also the situation he wants to see the most.

"Mr. Alexander, I now officially refuse to renew the Rockets, and I will not return to Toyota Center again in the new season." Tang Tian said with a smile, and said flatly.
