Legendary Basketball Tycoon

With this sentence, does Michael Jordan have the money to buy the Hornets, and Michael Jordan's face suddenly became embarrassed.

Indeed, he himself thinks he can't afford the Hornets, whether it is now or in the future, even if he never eats or drinks, he can't afford an NBA team!

The eastern team is a little better. The price is indeed not expensive, but that is only because the city where the eastern team is located is much smaller, that is, metropolises such as New York and Boston are supporting the scene. On the other hand, it is different in the west. Let’s just talk about San Francisco where the Warriors are located, Seattle where the Supersonics are located, and Dallas where the Mavericks are located. If you want to buy them, they must all start at 100 million. This is the gap.

If a city like Charlotte survives, it will be able to win about 100 million or so before the new century, but even so, he doesn't have the money.

What to do then, the only way is to find a consortium to buy the team together with oneself, and then have some shares in the team. As for the team's power, it will undoubtedly depend on who has more shares.

In this way, Michael Jordan really does not want to do this. If he wants to buy shares, he can find other big city teams to buy shares at any time. This way, at least after the appreciation, he can make a lot of money from selling the shares. But now Michael Jordan is full of ambitions, it can be said that there is no As far as the management of the team is concerned, it's best to leave it alone.

"This is not there yet. I haven't retired yet. Maybe it will be there when I retire!"

It should be almost the same, Bruce is not fooling me, is it such an important thing, if Bruce **** dares to fool me, I must kill him...

If you choose to retire in a hurry and can't become the owner of the team, then you won't cry to death!

Bruce, you have hurt me!

"Retire? Michael, don't you tell me that you are ready to retire after playing this season!"

How big was the impact of Michael Jordan’s retirement last year? It can be said that there is no one in the past, and no one in the future.

In the 24 hours as soon as the news of Michael Jordan’s retirement came out, the Jones Composite Index (commonly known as the stock price) of the United States fell 125 points instantly, while the share price of Nike, which has a deep cooperation with Michael Jordan, plummeted 4%. Not only that, Michael Jordan’s retirement is likely to directly cause as much as $1 billion in losses for the entire city of Chicago, and the indirect losses caused by it have reached a sky-high price of tens of billions of dollars. We must know that prices were not so high in the 1990s, and such high losses were enough to put any city into bankruptcy. The same NBA not only suffered heavy losses in revenue, but also affected the league's future development pattern.

Brother, you played it once last year, and now you come again. I am too old to withstand such excitement, okay? !

This is a big deal. In order to make Michael Jordan change his mind, God knows how embarrassed he was when he went to Chicago to ask Michael Jordan to renew his contract with the Bulls last year, but it is not enough to not renew his contract with the Bulls. At that time, the nation’s attention was paid. It's all concentrated on the Bulls and Michael Jordan, so that's why he personally visited the door before putting it down.

So Stern is now particularly "sensitive" to Michael Jordan, and he is afraid that Michael Jordan will go crazy again and choose to retire, and he can no longer bear such a blow.

"NONONO..."

"I will not retire for the time being. I am also going to renew my contract with the Bulls for another year. Of course, the conditions must be increased according to last year's price. The rest will see how sincere Jerry Reinsdorf is!"

It is obviously impossible to retire. At least for the past two years, he has no such plan. How can he leave with Phil Jackson in order to hit Jerry Rainsdorf and Jerry Klaus. spread!

Michael Jordan can now imagine what Chicago will be like when he leaves with Phil Jackson in two years' time. It's interesting to think about it, isn't it?

"It's fine if you don't retire, and it's fine if you don't retire..." Stern murmured.

He was afraid that Michael Jordan would ask him to talk about his retirement. Although he knew that such a day might come, if Michael Jordan retired from the league a year later, wouldn't he be able to reap a lot of benefits from him.

...

The waiter in the restaurant finally ordered all the dishes they ordered. Of course, Stern and Michael Jordan were hungry on their chests and their backs. After the waiter left, the two of them started to eat and eat. While chatting.

"Michael, tell me honestly who told you this, and who asked you to come to me?!"

If there is no one behind Michael Jordan, he would not believe that he would kill him. He still knows what Michael Jordan is like these years, either playing basketball or going to the casino to bet money. When did Michael Jordan do business?

Suddenly, I want to buy the Hornets. If there is no one behind, how could it be possible to be demented!

"This, this..."

Stern is still a very smart person after all, and now he is embarrassed!

Do you want to sell Bruce? If you don't give Stern a reasonably reasonable explanation, then maybe Stern will let the Hornets leave Charlotte, which is obviously he doesn't want to see it.

But if you don't betray Bruce, now go there to find someone to replace him!

It is important to betray Bruce in exchange for Stern's trust, or it is important to say that a non-existent person comes to fool Stern. At this time, Michael Jordan is in a dilemma.

"Bruce, Bruce told me?!"

No way. If Stern was not in charge of the league, then Michael Jordan would really not betray Bruce. The reason is very simple. Are you an idiot when Stern? Any role can be in the elegant hall. , Investors or consortia with no brains can't get into Stern's eyes.

If the scene was exposed by Stern, it would be difficult to buy the Hornets in a few years, leaving a bad impression on Stern and he would leave you with the Hornets in Charlotte.

In addition to attracting some fans by the University of North Carolina, Charlotte has no value at all. Moving out of Charlotte has solved this problem. What the NBA needs is the atmosphere, the atmosphere of Charlotte. too small.

Besides, it’s not a bad thing for the Hornets to move out of Charlotte. Just like the Cleveland Cavaliers, they are all small places. Players who are willing to go to such small places to play, people go to high places and low places, and those players don’t. Wouldn't you be willing to always play in such a small place, and moving to other big cities may be more attractive to players and fans!

If possible, Stern actually has no objection to the owners of small teams moving their teams to big cities. Of course, this also includes George Sinn’s Hornets. In fact, he only disgusts George Sinn. , The Hornets are still happy to see if they move out of Charlotte.

"Bruce... Michael, did you mean that Bruce told you to buy the Hornets?!"

"What else did he say to you?!"

Stern's face became serious as soon as he heard Bruce's name.

There was also a hint of vigilance towards Michael Jordan.
