Learning in the NBA can make you a god

Chapter 886 The miserable alliance

"Brother, hurry up and give me the red envelope!" Just after the New Year's Eve dinner, Li Tong stretched out his hand. Red envelope? This is a must. It's impossible not to have a red envelope during the Chinese New Year.

"Here, here, your sister-in-law and I gave you this, a courtyard house in the capital. When we went to the capital last time, your sister-in-law and I bought it for you. If I had known that you were going to start a business in the capital this year, you would have to have a place to live. place, on the other side of the capital.

It's close to where you can start a business, so that's where you go. Anyway, no one usually lives in my courtyard house. "

As he said this, he gave her a real estate certificate wrapped in a red envelope, which she bought in her sister's name.

"Ah, brother, is your gift a little too much?" What she wanted was the red envelope, not the heavy real estate certificate.

"What's wrong, you don't like it? It was just renovated years ago, so I know you like modern houses.

However, you also know that the exterior of a courtyard house must be built according to the original style. Of course, the interior is definitely a house with the strongest sense of technology, so you can rest assured that it will not be that big, so it only enters the courtyard. "

It is indeed not that big, only a few acres of land, which is indeed worse than what he had.

"Brother, thank you then!" She really couldn't refuse. Now that she had spent all her money, she couldn't buy such a house. She still had to use it for investment to buy a house that didn't exist.

"Okay, go quickly. After the New Year, you can go there and have a look. If you are missing something, you can buy it with your own money, and I won't give you any money."

With that said, he took Taylor back to his room. Staying up late is not very friendly to pregnant women, so he sent his wife back to bed early.

"Brother, thank you!" Li Tong was also thinking about what kind of investment she would make next.

"Brother Yao, Happy New Year!" After the New Year, I still made a call to Brother Yao.

"Happy New Year, how have you been during the rest of the year?" After answering the phone, it was like this every New Year, and the two of them would chat for a few words.

Time flies very quickly, and Li Tian will cook some delicious food when he has nothing to do. It has been several months, and he has not had the same food.Although the ingredients are the same, the taste is quite different, especially for developing appetite.

From time to time, I receive calls from some former teammates, mainly talking about the team's current predicament, especially the Kings. After Li Tian left, the team's record plummeted. It was still unbeatable last season, but now it will never be the same this season.

Last season's season record was almost even, but this season there have been many thrilling situations. Harden has staged two buzzer beaters, which shows the decline in the team's strength. If the team is strong, how can it get the buzzer beaters?

"Boss, the team is in a bit of a mess now!" Harden was crying. Sometimes the team is too talented, which is not necessarily a good thing.

There will be conflicts between players. Everyone feels that they are strong and can rise to the top. Now there are only two solutions, which is to sign a stronger person or send away a slightly weaker person.

Even if Kobe is injured and unable to appear, as long as the Kings sign him, he can convince everyone even if he cannot appear, but Harden really does not have this ability.

Lillard wants to usurp the throne, Cousins ​​​​is sometimes mentally ill, and Gordon is also not convinced by anyone.

Three outside players and one inside player, Cousins, Gobert and Whiteside all want the maximum salary. Who can bear this?

"What are you afraid of? Then suppress them. Whoever dares to have an opinion will be suppressed." What Li Tian said was called Feng Qingyun Dan. This is what he did when he first joined the Kings. of.

They used their speed on the outside to kill Lillard and Harden, and used their strength on the inside to suppress Cousins. From then on, all members of the Kings team obeyed and did not dare to stab anyone again.

Harden almost cried when he heard this. If I had this ability, why would I call you?
"Um, boss, I can't do this." There's no other way to do it if you're embarrassed. If you can't do it, you can't do it.

"Then separate. Since we can't be together, let the team choose. Only one of you can stay!" Since you can't do that, it's better to separate as early as possible so as not to restrict the development of the other party.

"But, the Kings are going to defend their title this season. If they want to defend their title, there is no chance at all!" Harden said with a grimace. The Kings are going to defend their title this season.

The purpose of the Kings boss' request is to tell Li Tian that even if the team does not have you, the team can complete the defense of the championship. It is not that you are strong but that the other players on the team are strong. You are just a dispensable person. .

But reality slaps you in the face so quickly. The Kings' current record is 35 wins and 13 losses, which looks good, but compared to last season, the gap is not as big as usual.

Instead, the Warriors suddenly emerged and reached the top of the league.

"You think about it yourself. I have to cook for your sister-in-law, so don't interrupt my work. I'll hang up now." He couldn't help but hang up the phone. The current Kings team has nothing to do with him, so why bother? It involves too much energy on yourself.

"Boss, you just flicked your sleeves and left, but you ruthlessly left this mess on me." Harden felt bitter because he didn't learn how to be the boss of the team last season.

After hanging up Harden's call, Kobe also came to Deer City in the past few days. He has begun recovery training, but he has never determined when he will return.

Last time when Li Tian was cooking, Kobe was kicked out directly, so this time he learned wisely and deliberately chose a suitable time to visit. "Li, do you think it's appropriate for me to come back now?" He originally wanted to come back in December, but was stopped by Li Tian. Now it's the end of February, and he really wants to come back and help the team. Get better results.

"Are you really recovered now?" You must know that Kobe Bryant chose to come back after 240 days. After playing only a few games, he was injured again and was reimbursed for the season. This had a great impact on him in the future.

Still unable to prevent this guy from rupturing his Achilles tendon, this guy must be stopped.

"I feel like I'm healthy now."

Kobe even jumped a few times excitedly. After such a long rest, he still felt full of energy and full of confidence in his comeback.

"You are really sure that you can come back now, so why did you come here to ask me?" He rolled his eyes at Kobe angrily. You are a tough guy. You don't know how to be soft when you come to ask others for advice.

"This is not this." After this for a long time, Kobe didn't know what to say.

"Li, don't believe what he says. He just has some doubts about his health, so I wanted to ask you if it's appropriate to come back now?" Mrs. Wa directly revealed the truth.

The current Lakers have completely entered into reconstruction. They can afford to wait for Kobe Bryant to return later. They will also have a retirement tour next season, and their requirements for record are even lower.

So when he comes back depends entirely on Kobe himself. Although the Lakers have not declared him reimbursed for the season, and there are no exceptions for injuries, they know that as long as Kobe comes back even for just a few home games, they are confident that they can earn back Kobe's salary.

"Hmph, why are you so tough-talking? You can compare your physical data before the injury and now. Another point is that you must lose some weight to reduce the pressure on your injured Achilles tendon."

Li Tian was not completely unprepared. He had Kobe's physical data before and after his injury. After comparing it, it was obvious that his right leg was a little different from before, and the left leg was even more obvious.

Although this is weight loss, the difference is still a bit big.

"Ah, what should I do now?" Kobe also understood that the physical fitness gap is so big, if in a fierce game, anything can happen, and another injury is inevitable.

"Continue to rehabilitate. You can only play when your body recovers to the level before the injury. It is estimated that it will not be until early March!" It was a severe blow to Kobe. He could not let this guy appear so early.

"Okay, then I will train at your place until the beginning of March to prepare for my comeback!"

Kobe was soon sent away by him.

******
The NBA has experienced a failed season. Since the beginning of the season, the fairness of the league has been constantly questioned, and the ratings have naturally dropped to the lowest level in the past ten years.

In a league without Li Tian and Kobe Bryant, attention will naturally drop significantly.

Domestic ratings are even more dismal. Li Tian retired and Yao Ming sat on the bench most of the time. Knicks owner Dolan, in order to show his preferential treatment for the team's championship hero, did not choose to trade Yao Ming, but gave him a A good pension contract.

There was even a period of time when the number of viewers for a live broadcast was less than 10. This is the star effect. Although Li Tian disappeared from everyone's sight, the league's dark history is known to fans across the country.

In turn, the domestic league's ratings increased by 15% compared to the previous year. This can be said to be the first time in so many years that a domestic league has seen such a big improvement.

Many teams’ home games are almost sold out, which is even better for the league.

The finals of the 15-16 season had just come to an end. Li Tian watched the entire game in Lucheng. When the last game ended, he shook his head helplessly.

Because of the Warriors' encounter with the Kings in the playoffs last season, they made preparations in advance. Even though the league whistle was blown, it was still outrageous.

But Curry and Thompson, who have grown up over the past year, do not have the strongest regular season record this time. They are under a lot less pressure, and they are also playing their part.

The defense of Iguodala and Green left the Cavaliers in tears.

The most miserable thing was the Kings. In the end, they didn't even make it to the Western Conference Finals. In the second round, they were defeated by the Thunder, which they swept last season. It's a bit miserable when you think about it.

The new owner of the Kings failed to make a good plan and had no choice but to admit defeat.

Originally he wanted to slap Li Tian in the face, but in the end he didn't expect to slap himself in the face. At the beginning of the season, he said in a cryptic way that the team could still defend the title.

Reality told him that without Li Tian's suppression, the talent in the team would easily overflow.
