Chapter 266 Damn NBA, they helped Jack to loot aboveboard(1/2)
Who can sit here who is not the best among the best?
When James Dolan stepped forward to eat the first piece of cake, the people below immediately understood that this was a good time to hand in the investment certificate. If you don’t please Fan Xi at this time, how can Fan Xi leave the Clippers in the future and join us?
?
"Houston agrees that we cannot lose Jack Van, just like the West cannot lose Jerusalem." The representative of the Rockets owner also stood up to express his position.
Followed by the owner of the San Antonio Spurs: "We have no reason to let a legendary star leave the NBA like this. At the same time, I suggest that 120% of Jack Fan's annual salary should be calculated into the salary cap, so as to show fairness."
The Spurs are still a bit shady. According to the proposals of these bosses, if Fanxi has to take the maximum salary, which is 30% of the salary cap, and then increase it by 20% on the basis of 30%, it is equivalent to Fanxi alone.
Accounting for 36% of the salary space. In this era of competing for superstars, the possibility of the Clippers superstars teaming up to evolve into a super fleet is almost locked.
When one or two bosses stood up to express their support, passing a brand new agreement was a foregone conclusion.
Jenny Bass felt helpless.
She could only sit there in silence, unable to do anything because the NBA was not her only team.
Not allowing players to hold shares was originally something that all management was resolutely opposed to, because it would seriously affect the interests of the management, and at the same time, it would infinitely increase the status and ambition of the players.
Therefore, the next agenda becomes how to limit this clause to Fan Xi's exclusive use.
Bosses are smart and shameless enough.
…
Fanci was sitting in the United Center. He was wearing a suit. He wasn't even sitting on the Clippers bench. Derrick Rose was sitting with him. Rose was back in Chicago for Christmas.
He bought tickets for Fan Xi, and he, his two brothers, and Fan Xi sat together to watch the game.
Rose's two brothers are relatively vulgar and street people, but they are very enthusiastic. They thank Fanshi for saving Rose's career. Rose's folding dunk made them realize that Rose's choice of rehab in Los Angeles was correct.
Rose will return before and after the All-Star Game, and he is not in a hurry to return to the court to make contributions. In fact, the Bulls are still at the playoff level. They maintain the fifth position in the Eastern Conference. Thibodeau is a very capable head coach.
, he has enough experience as an assistant coach, which allows him to easily turn the team he coaches into a playoff level.
However, the entire state of Illinois knows that if the Bulls want to go further, they must wait until their regular season MVP returns to the court.
When the camera panned to Fan Xi and Ross sitting side by side, there was an inexplicable sense of harmony.
After all, this is the youngest finals MVP and the youngest regular season MVP in NBA history.
Fanci's move to distance himself from the Clippers tonight seems to prove that he has decided to leave, at least that's what the media thinks.
Rose is also discussing the possibility of joining the Bulls with Fanci.
But Fan Xi always smiled.
He is very relaxed. Like the eye of a tornado, calm.
He knew there would always be a solution to this matter.
When the game entered the third quarter, the Clippers overtook the score. At this time, Rose said something that made Fan Xi feel incredible: "Jack, if you need money to buy the team, I can lend you 30 million US dollars."
"
Um?
In the past three or four days, Fan Xi has been hearing news from people who want to use money to invest in stocks. This is the first time he has heard someone say they want to lend him money.
Ross said to Fan Xi seriously: "You know, I'm not good at investing. At the same time, I have a huge family and I don't like to squander. If you need me to lend you money, you can pay me more than the fund."
The interest would be good.”
Ross is very sincere.
His two brothers were also surprised. They hesitated to speak and tried to persuade Ross.
However, Ross stopped them with a sure look.
Rose is one of the stars with the highest commercial value in the league today, but he is still on a rookie contract. He is not as good as those established superstars who have played in the league for many years. This 30 million is likely to be all he can get.
Money.
Fan Xi thought for a while, but he didn't show off, then smiled and said, "Okay."
Fan Xi looked calm and relaxed, but in fact, she already had an idea in her mind.
Fan Xi is a very loyal person. If you treat him well, he will definitely treat you better.
If Ross is willing to lend himself 30 million US dollars unconditionally, then he will definitely reciprocate the favor. What he will return to Ross will definitely be more than 30 million US dollars and interest, and there will definitely be a little more. Even if Ross is willing, Fan Xi can keep it for Ross.
A small amount of pre-emptive shares so that Rose can have a guarantee after he retires.
This is what good friends are like, if you treat me sincerely, I will repay you fully.
"Ask your agent to send me your account number," Ross said.
He is a person who is not good at words, and the way he expresses his affection is by giving money.
The Chicago Bulls finally defeated the Clippers 108:107, which was a regular defensive battle.
The winner was Carlos Boozer's go-ahead shot with 42 seconds left in the game.
Then Butler and Leonard on the Clippers missed key shots one after another.
They are still a bit young and lack the ability to make key goals.
After the game, they all came over to talk to Fan Xi with regret.
Although Fan Xi wears a suit and says in the media that he may retire, to them, Fan Xi is still their boss.
Fan Xi smiled and encouraged them: "It's only a matter of time before the goal is scored. However, you were able to block all their front lines at the last moment. This is your talent. I am proud of you."
Fanxi could always find their bright spots. In the 42 seconds before the end of the game, both sides made two attacks, but neither was successful.
Butler and Leonard stifled the Bulls' offense on the wings and at the top of the key.
This is their energy.
"Jack, when can you come back? Can it be Christmas?"
Stephen Nash asked Fanci after the game.
Because there is only one away game next.
I'll be back in Los Angeles soon.
Fan Xi thought for a moment and said, "It's probably okay."
…
Fanshie did not follow the team to the next home game and returned to Los Angeles early.
During his long flight back to Los Angeles, the NBA issued new terms "NBA Owners' Special Terms" in New York.
After a collective meeting of the league's 29 owners, coupled with the collective wisdom of the NBA league headquarters, they finally passed the new terms.
they announced.
If you are an undrafted player, win the Finals MVP before the age of 20, and receive part of the equity incentive with the special consent of your boss, you can hold shares as an active player.
As soon as this content came out, the entire basketball world was shocked.
Isn't this tailor-made for Fanshie? Besides Fanshie, who in the world can win the NBA Finals MVP as a non-draft player before the age of 20?
What kind of terms are there? This is simply a designation.
The program is gone.
It's equivalent to a project tender. One of the clauses specifies that the boss's ID number can only be...
Suddenly, many players jumped out and said that this was too unfair and that it was simply partial to Fan Xi.
Originally, this was a good thing for the workers and the players, but they couldn't stand it when Fanshie was the only one with the standard. This is the essence of human nature: don't worry about the disadvantages of the few and the unevenness of the situation.
Subsequently, this clause stipulates some other content.
If this player obtains this clause while playing, in order to avoid secret operations and maximize profits, he can only sign a maximum salary when playing for a shareholding team, and the salary will automatically increase by 20% within the salary cap.
And...after this clause officially takes effect, he can only play for the team that owns the shares for a maximum of 2 years.
This content relieved many people.
Because it restricts the Clippers' salary space, it makes it difficult for the Clippers to expand when they acquire Fanshie. Originally, it would be difficult to recruit a superstar who occupies 30% of the salary space. This directly allows Fanshie to occupy 36%.
The Clippers' signings will become more difficult unless they pay a high luxury tax.
In addition, this contract means that Fanshie can play for the Clippers for at most two years except this season. After two years, he will have to be transferred to other teams, play for one or two years, and then return to the Clippers.
This means that any other team, except the Lakers, can have a piece of Fanci's cake.
No wonder the employer agreed.
Although the release of this special clause caused an uproar, it also sealed another matter.
Fanci will acquire all the shares of the Sterling family for US$750 million.
And Fanci can continue to return to the Clippers and play as a player.
So, the question now becomes: does Fan Xi have enough money to eat this huge piece of cake?
750 million US dollars, this is not a small amount of money.
To be continued...
