NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

Chapter 66 Abducting Big Zhi
The NBA has not been this lively for a long, long time.

Stern has been paying attention to the trend of the situation. He originally thought that a new melon egg like Combe, who has no foundation, would be defeated in front of Riley.

The result was completely different from what he expected.

Kumbu stood up and did not lose the wind at all. Among the crowd who spoke out for him, there are many influential figures.

This made Stern a bit incomprehensible. He was sure that Combe had no intersection with the NBA before coaching the Raptors.

In just a few months, he has accumulated such an amazing network?
If this has been in the league for decades, he can't become the emperor of the NBA?

Stern also knew that if the war of words continued, Combe would definitely lose, because Riley or some of Larry Brown's high-end old friends were unlikely to end due to their status.

For example, Zen masters, such as Popovich.

But if it's really a moment of urgency, it's hard to say.

Stern stepped forward quickly, and he also counted on Kongbu to help him open up the Chinese market.

"The referee has given a fair penalty, and I think there is no need to continue discussing this matter."

Stern's words belong to the imperial decree in the league. He said that everyone shut up, even Riley can't continue to talk about it.

Seemingly a sentence of impartiality, in fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Stern is favoring the weaker Kumbu.

This discovery inevitably made many high-level executives in the league wonder. When did Combe climb up to Stern?
Reminiscent of the previous Knicks Raptors melee, Stern obviously favors the Raptors, and it is also true that the relationship between Combe and Stern is unusual.

On the night when Stern spoke, Combe was leading the Raptors to an away game against the New Jersey Nets.

This game was a massacre from beginning to end. Comb didn't care about garbage time at all. From the beginning to the end, he didn't give the Nets a chance to breathe.

Keith Van Horn and Marbury almost shed tears after the game. They have never been so humiliated.

Coach Cali Perry has been roaring and roaring on the sidelines, his voice is hoarse.

The audience won by 39 points, a serious massacre.

Comb is going to use this game to tell Riley that I am not afraid at all, and I will kill you first, Kali Perry.

……

"Kong, did you forget something?"

After the matter was settled, Stern immediately called Comb.

He doesn't care about Comb's fight with Riley, it seems to him a trivial matter.

And the fact that the league has become lively because of this is not a bad thing.

As one of the four major leagues in North America, the NBA is currently the weakest one. If Stern can dominate the headlines like this every day, Stern can only wish for it.

"I remember, of course I do."

"But now that the regular season is going on, it's hard to get him into the league."

Comb knew what Stern meant, but it was not easy to operate at the moment of noon and night.

"Difficult?"

"Kong, sometimes I wonder if you are as smart as you appear to be, and why you always do some stupid things or say some stupid things."

"As long as you decide on the candidate, I can immediately let him enter the league."

As the real ruler of the alliance, Stern has the confidence to say this.

Kumbu has indeed decided on the candidate, but in fact there is no need to decide, because there is only one candidate.

Wang Zhizhi.

Da Zhi, who was born in 77, is exactly 20 years old this year.

According to the existing draft rules for NBA overseas players, if you have not played in the NCAA in Laos, you are eligible for the draft between the ages of 18 and 22.

Under normal circumstances, Da Zhi participated in the draft in 99, when he was a month away from 22 years old.

Kumbu's original plan was to let Big Zhi run for the election next year. The Raptors have a lot of draft picks in their hands, and they can win Big Zhi if they take any one.

There are two points that give Kumbu a headache.

The first point is that Big Zhi's strength does not seem to reach the level of an NBA All-Star.

At that time, Combe had bragged with Stern, promising to foster a Chinese All-Star.

The second point is Dazhi's status. He is currently a member of the national team and a soldier. He plays for the No. 8 team. It is very difficult to get him to the NBA.

Maybe the national team and the No. 8 team will not let people go.

"Mr. Stern, the candidate has been confirmed, Wang Zhizhi, have you heard?"

"During the previous Olympics, I slapped David Robinson with a big hat."

Stern nodded. He watched the entire schedule of the Dream Team in 96. In his impression, there was indeed a tall and thin young man from the Celestial Dynasty who capped the general.

"Fine, I'll take care of his draft application report."

"You signed him in the last few days and I look forward to your commitment."

After listening to Stern's words, Combe became more and more convinced that the Knicks envelope incident was true. This old guy's methods can be called lawless.

What he said about processing the draft application report was actually a falsified draft application to give Da Zhian the status of being a draft loser.

In this way, the Raptors can directly sign Dazhi during the season.

Even if someone thought something was wrong, it would be impossible to check, because the draft application report is kept by the league.

Even if there is an insider in the league management and informs the outside world that there is no record of Big Zhi's draft application, Stern can find a temporary worker and give the reason of negligence at work and omission of Big Zhi during registration.

What is power?Being able to turn black into white, even if others know about it, they can't do anything about it. This is power.

Kong Bu's egg hurts, should you be so impatient?
Let's not talk about whether Dazhi can be signed smoothly, even if he can be signed, what if he can't play an All-Star performance?
Before he could speak, Stern had already hung up the phone.

When he redialed the call back, Stern simply didn't answer it.

"It's terrible. If I knew it, I wouldn't be bragging." Kong Bu felt very uncomfortable, feeling that there were ants crawling on his body.

It's just too difficult.

As for the issue of Da Zhi's strength, if Kong Bu was forced to the point of nowhere, he could resolve it by gritting his teeth.

For example, use this blank template card to cover Xiao Ao's body, and then use it for Da Zhi to make Da Zhi into another Xiao Ao.

This is a forced and helpless approach. If there are other options, Kong Bu will definitely not be willing to use it on Xiao Ao.

The real difficulty is to let the national team and the No. 8 team release people, and Kumbu has no clue at all.

"Hey, brother Yao, I want to ask you something."

Kong Bu directly called Yao Ming's old father. After all, he is a serious player in the Chinese basketball circle, and he must know more about this aspect than Kong Bu.

When Yao Zhiyuan heard that Kong Bu was going to take Dazhi to the NBA, he felt a little bit pissed.

Didn't it mean that his family's Dayao was full of talent?Why did you miss Da Zhi first?
"Actually, it's not as difficult as you think."

"You just need to make sure that Dazhi is available whenever he is recruited, and that Dazhi is healthy. They have no reason not to let him go."

"Everyone knows that playing in the NBA can improve the strength of the players. The strength of the players has improved and the results of international competitions are guaranteed. This is a good thing."

"I know some friends, why don't you go find out for me first?"

Yao Zhiyuan took the job very generously.

Kumbu was overjoyed, he was really sleepy and someone gave him a pillow, but he was still worrying about how to contact the people in charge of this matter in China.

After waiting for about a day, Lao Yao's transoceanic call came back.

"Fortunately, you want someone. The basketball management center generally agrees. If it were a foreign coach, they would definitely ignore it."

"Oh? Am I so famous?" Kong Bu was overjoyed.

"It's not just because you are famous. I heard that in their internal meeting two days ago, they have already started to discuss whether they should invite you back to coach the national team."

"It's a pity that we didn't qualify for the World Championships next year, and the Olympics are still more than three years away. This matter has been put on hold for the time being."

Yao Zhiyuan disclosed the internal information he inquired to Kong Bu.

Kong Bu was so cool that he flew up, and his scalp was numb. His little transparency could actually enter the eye of the basket!
Wealth does not return home, such as night walks in brocade clothes, can be recognized by the people of the country, this sense of accomplishment is second only to holding 141 properties.

Kumbu is very sure that three years later, he will definitely have more than one championship trophy in his hand, and will become the hottest coach in the NBA and even in the world, and will really be qualified to lead the Chinese men's basketball team to the Olympics.

Looking at it this way, it is quite necessary to lure Dazhi to the NBA early.

"Huh? Generally agree?" After the excitement passed, Kong Bu immediately noticed something was wrong.
