If your three-pointers are accurate, I might put you in the starting lineup.”

"First launch?"

Bo Wen was stunned. "Coach, are you really the Lakers head coach?"

“…”

Li Mu shouted like a fake one and hung up the phone immediately.

Fortunately, the communications for the next few communications are relatively easy.

When Da Ben heard that he played like Rodman, he didn't have to practice free throws and mid-range shots, but just practiced defense and rebounds.

He immediately laughed and claimed that he would have to take Li Mu's hair once for free when the new season began.

Am I missing a haircut money?

Li Mu hung up the phone angrily.

"The rest of Billups should not be mentioned.

He is so smart to play, just practice shooting well.”

Li Mu, I stole a lazy person once.

...

In this way, before we knew it, time came to the end of September, and the team training camp could not be opened, so naturally no training camp was held.

On October 21, the arbitration judge ruled that during the suspension period, investors would not have to pay the players' salaries.

This ruling is nothing for superstars, and ordinary players are a little shaken.

However, for everything to be good, they could only keep up with it.

At the end of October, the regular season of the 98-99 season did not start normally.

In November, Stern announced that the regular season of this month was cancelled.

In December, Stern announced that the matches this month were also cancelled, and the All-Star Game was also cancelled.

At this time, the stars also felt the pressure.

On December 24th, on Christmas Eve, the annual Christmas war is gone.

Stern knew that he could not continue to consume like this, and both sides had suffered heavy losses.

So he decided to add a fire and put it to death before he could live.

The final disc was issued immediately, forcing both sides to return to the negotiating table.

"The deadline is January 7. If the labor and management parties still fail to reach an agreement, all games in the 1998-99 season will be cancelled.

Let’s prepare for next year’s NBA game!”

At this time, the players' union finally couldn't stand it and a split occurred.

Why?

Because ordinary players are different from superstar players, for ordinary players, the maximum salary limit is not limited and has nothing to do with them.

They can see it, but they can't eat it.

Now that they are making trouble with the superstars, they are trying to take risks in vain but cannot get the benefits.

On January 13, a week before the negotiations were successful, Jordan announced that his second retirement had finally disintegrated.

The gods who were standing on the heads of a group of superstars finally abdicated.

After tribute to Jordan's dynasty, then end the shutdown quickly!

There is not much time left for them to compete for the championship.

A group of superstars who were overthrown by Jordan for the same era began to get ready for the second time.

On January 20, the labor and management reached a consensus and signed a new contract.

While the maximum salary of stars is restricted, the salary and benefits of middle and lower-level players will be increased.

A "luxury tax" was introduced, and the rookie salary was paid according to the draft rankings, and the rookie contract became four years (can be signed).

In this way, after a 204-day shutdown, it officially ended.

The 98-99 season will start on February 5th.
Chapter completed!
