I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 397 Things Are More Complicated (Second)

The management has just gone through an 8-hour war of words, and finally a consensus has been reached between the big city team and the small city team, and a distribution agreement within the management has been signed.

However, this does not mean that the conflict between the two parties has disappeared, it is only a temporary compromise.

On the contrary, both parties are in a highly sensitive state because of the fierce argument. Once something happens, the quarrel will definitely happen again.

It's hard to die, just when the meeting just ended, the news that Paul was traded to the Lakers came.

This is like pouring a bucket of gasoline on a fire that has just been extinguished and still has lingering flames, and the flames explode in a flash.

The first person to get the news on Twitter was Mark Cuban. This guy saw Paul go to the Lakers, and it was like a rage.

I was about to leave, rushed back to the meeting room, and yelled at Stern: "Paul has gone to the Lakers! Is this the big city's concession to the small city? The star that the small team has worked hard to cultivate is just like this. City Harvest gone? The deal we made at the meeting was bullshit! Bullshit!"

Cuban looked filled with righteous indignation, you Dallas is not a small city.

Besides, Dallas has never lost any developed superstars in free agency.

Steve Nash is something you don't want, and Nowitzki never thought about leaving.

Paying a lot of luxury tax every year, the attendance rate is also very high, and this year we even won the championship.

The reason why Cuban is so angry is that, to put it bluntly, the Lakers will block the way of the Mavericks after getting Paul.

The Mavericks lineup will be one year older next season, and this year's championship miracle can hardly be replicated.

Can someone like Cuban watch the Lakers rob again and again?
The Hornets have already contributed a Kobe to you, and they will contribute another Paul to you, right?
The Hornets are the superstar training base for the Lakers?
Anyway, I can't bear it, and I can't see the Lakers doing well.

Except for Cuban, other teams, especially small team owners, think so.

The meeting had already been adjourned, and the big guys returned one after another after getting a rest, and began to attack Stern.

Stern endured the conference for eight hours, and faced all kinds of questioning and persecution with a smile on his face.

It was so hard to bear the effect and get the result, but who knew that the twists and turns, and something fucking happened again!

The labor negotiations really let David - Stern physically and mentally exhausted.

Six months of repeated see-saw negotiations.

After the lockout, there was tremendous pressure from all sides.

Seeing that the lockout was about to end, negative news about game manipulation broke out.

Stern was criticized by public opinion, and the pressure increased.

Reaching the brink of desperation, Donaghy is shot, leading to one of the nation's shocking murder mysteries.

Things have developed to this point, and finally whether it is extremely peaceful or not, it has given both sides a step and contributed to the success of the negotiation.

However, successful negotiations between labor and management are not enough, and there are also many contradictions within the management.

It took so much effort to settle the management internally, and the Lakers robbed a deal and exploded again!

Faced with the bosses' questioning, clamoring and questioning, the old man Stern finally reached the limit of his body and spirit.

He still tried to suppress his temper, coordinate well, and then discuss with the people in the office how to deal with it.

Because the Hornets are now in league custody, the league can veto the deal.

But when Stern stood up and wanted to explain, he suddenly felt his eyes go dark, his mind immediately lost consciousness, and his whole body softened and fell backwards.

Everyone was stunned, and the president just fainted?

Don't be dizzy, you won't be gone directly, right?
Min Congda was sitting not far from Stern.

He had nothing to say, and the development of the matter to this point was indeed beyond his imagination.

What was even more unexpected was that Stern fell down all of a sudden, and Min Congda was the first to react, shouting: "Call 911! Let the medical personnel come in! Quick!"

After all, Stern is a 70-year-old man, and there are more or less cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems at this age.

After this series of ups and downs, tonight's Chris Paul trade was the final straw.

The bosses panicked all of a sudden, not knowing what to do. If Stern died, the NBA would be in trouble this time.

Two people were killed in one stoppage, one referee and one president. Looking at the entire history of professional sports in North America, it was quite a blast.

Min Congda saw that Stern might have had a stroke, so he let the others get out of the way, carried Stern off the chair and laid him flat on the ground, unbuttoned his tie and shirt, and kept his breathing unobstructed.

Soon the hotel's medical staff came to the venue, and after a simple examination, they confirmed that it was indeed a stroke. They immediately put him on a stretcher and sent him to the hospital for first aid.

Stern was sent away, and the venue was in a mess. No one thought that things would evolve to this point today.

Naturally, the bosses couldn't leave. They all went to the New York City Hospital to wait for the news of Stern's rescue.

The news that Stern suffered a stroke and fainted during the negotiation immediately hit the headlines.

Netizens are also amazed, what happened to the NBA this year?
Min Congda and 28 other team representatives came to the hospital to wait for news.

On the one hand, Stern's life and death are uncertain, and on the other hand, these bosses have already begun to discuss who to choose for the next president.

In theory, Adam Silva was trained as a successor.

Once Stern retires, he will definitely give Silva a push and let him be the new president.

Whether the teams respect Stern or trust Stern's vision, the position of the next president is basically a certainty.

But after this kind of accident, it's hard to say whether there will be any changes.

Because according to Stern's timetable, he originally planned to announce his retirement plan at the end of next year.

At that time, he will announce Adam Silva as his heir and the next NBA president.

Once a statement is made at the press conference, then everything is safe. All Stern has to do is to help Silva get on the horse, give him a ride, and then retire with peace of mind.

It turned out that there was less than a year left before his plan, and something like this happened.

Everyone knows that Silva is cultivated according to the heir, but it has never been officially announced.

After all, Stern and the bosses also have to observe and examine Silva.

Once Stern couldn't wake up and suddenly had a bang, suspense would arise for the new president.

There will definitely be a vote at that time, and several of the current vice presidents will have a chance.

Then the bosses are of course tempted, hoping to join forces to support the president who is beneficial to them.

Things get more complicated.

Just when everyone was having their own ghosts, the doctor from the emergency room came out.

"Mr. Stern is out of danger, and his life is not in serious danger, but he needs a good rest."

Stern was still alive, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but also a little disappointed.

What about the deals between the Hornets and the Lakers and Rockets?
How to deal with it?

These bosses will not give up forcing the palace because of Stern's stroke.

The pressure was on Adam Silva's shoulders.
