Chapter 387 Chapter 378: Robbery No.1
Fan Xie's rhetoric was enough to impress Reggie Miller.
However, Reggie Miller is still hesitating. He can't make up his mind to leave the Pacers, who has played for 18 years, to join a strange team that was even regarded as an enemy.
Reggie Miller is a tough man, he has a strong character, he is not like those superstars in the future, he will not choose to go to a better team because the team is difficult, he will not choose a brighter future because it is easier to get what he wants, and he claims to be on the most difficult road, let alone join because he cannot beat.
However, Fan Xi wanted to tell him that his current situation was completely different from these.
"We don't have a lot of time, the deal window is closing soon, and if we don't get a deal, then ... all chances are gone."
Fanhee told Reggie Miller very seriously that he hoped that Reggie Miller would take a brave step.
However, the greatest shooter in NBA history still hesitates and lingers.
At this time, Fan Xi took out a heavy notebook from his backpack, opened the document he had prepared earlier, and opened the video.
A group of Pacers fans wearing No. 31 jerseys appeared on it, and they shouted at the camera: "Reggie, you can go!"
At this moment, Fan Xi saw Miller's tears welling up in his eyes.
He could no longer suppress his heavy emotions.
Fan Xi didn't bother him anymore, but let him watch the 11-minute video quietly.In it, Vance asked Isiah Thomas to find someone to go to Indiana to find someone to record.
There are Pacers fans, arena staff, Pacers staff, even club executives, and... Larry Bird, the greatest Indiana basketball superstar ever. .
Without exception, these people all showed an open mind, and they all agreed with Reggie Miller to pursue his dreams.
Because Reggie Miller has paid enough passion and blood and sweat for the Pacers.
He deserves a championship.
The sad thing is that with the Palace of Auburn Hills battle, it is difficult for the Pacers to create such opportunities for Reggie Miller, who is dying...Indiana is a small ball market, and they cannot attract superstars. Compared with big cities like New York, Boston, and Los Angeles, their reconstruction often takes five or six years, and Reggie Miller has not had so many careers.
After Fan Xi left Miller's room, he walked back to his own room.
He was inexplicably sad.
With the development of the times and the changing of human relationships, he has already felt that it will be difficult for the future league to have superstars like Reggie Miller sticking to one city, and perhaps even more difficult to appear is the "generosity" of the entire city. They are generous enough to support their totems and go to another strange or even hostile city to pursue their championship dreams.
LeBron James then knocked on Vanhey's door, followed by Miami's Dwyane Wade and Denver's Carmelo Anthony.
They're all here for the rookie game.
LeBron James has a group of friends of his own. He is a person with a wide range of contacts. He is very popular, and he has been very smart since he was a child, showing amazing business acumen.
Now he even learned to deal with the elites of Wall Street, and he began to plan his own business empire.
Of course, he often consulted Fan Xi for advice in this regard.
Fanhee has been taken for a long time in the past seven years, because most of the money Fanhee earned was thrown into Silicon Valley and domestic Internet companies.
Especially around the dot-com bubble around the turn of the millennium, everyone thought Vanheede would be the first player to make hundreds of millions of dollars in the NBA and file for bankruptcy while playing.
However, Fan Xi survived.
He didn't sell any of his real estate in the country, and his brand provided him with a steady stream of cash, as well as those endorsements.
Fanxie can become the most profitable athlete every year, no matter which industry, even if it is F1, even if it is golf, even if it is boxing, they do not have the opportunity to compete with Fanxie for the most profitable athlete.
Because Fanxie's brand has become the third largest in the world and has become No.1 in the Asian market, many joint names have also been carried out in the fashion circle. Young men and women are proud to wear a pair of FanX co-branded trendy shoes.
Recently, many people have predicted that Vanhee will take his brand public.
But in fact, Fan Xi had no such plan.
He is not short of money.
The Internet companies he invested in have gradually become famous. With the further popularization of home computers, Fan Xi believes that the future will definitely become the era of the Internet.
LeBron James respects Fanhee very much. He even reiterated in front of Wade and Anthony that he regards Fanhee as his father.
Although in appearance, these three are more mature than Fan Xie, especially LeBron James, he said that he is Fan Xi's uncle, and some people believed it.
Wade humbly asked Van Heeed some questions about breakthroughs. Pat Riley was very excited about this kid nicknamed The Flash. He said in more than one phone call with Van Heeed: Wade will definitely become a superstar in the future.
Vanheede and Wade have played against each other, and he agrees with Pat Riley.This guy is sharp, strong, explosive and doesn't stick to the ball.
Carmelo Anthony is also the future superstar hand-picked by the league. He was even selected by Michael Jordan to become the spokesperson of the Jordan brand.
Originally, Fan Xie wanted to sign Wade, but Wade's agent was short-sighted. They chose Converse because of the price difference of 100 million US dollars.
Although Fanhee did not talk about this matter with Wade, he thought that Wade's move was unwise.Because Converse's basketball shoe sector has shrunk rapidly, they have entered the twilight period of the enterprise. It is no longer the era when everyone wore Converse sneakers to play in the 70s and [-]s.
Fan Xi chatted with the young people of the 03 generation for about four and ten minutes.
Then, Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, Stephon Marbury, and Kevin Garnett walked in.
They can be regarded as representatives of the 96 golden generation.
Although Fan Xi and them are of the same generation, but from the bottom of his heart, Fan Xi is still more senior. Although he is not very old, his seniority is really high.
And among these superstars who are in full swing today, which one was not the autumn wind of playing Fan Xi in New York?Whoever has not received the benefits of Fan Xi, Fan Xi has a feeling of supporting him to some extent.
Even before this season, Fan Xi had been sinking for seven years, but in private gatherings, Fan Xi was still in charge of the overall situation.
When Fan Xi chatted with the 03 generation, he would discuss with them the penalty scale of the league, and discuss with them the business map of the future league.Help them better adapt to the alliance and better plan for future benefits.
But when chatting with the 96 generation, they were already talking about how to protect their own state... Although these guys are at the peak of their careers, how to make themselves healthier is what they care most about.
In addition, when they were chatting, Kobe Bryant also said: This season, I want to become the scoring champion.
Allen Iverson is the player who has won the most scoring titles here, and he seemed a little tired. He said: Now you and Tracy McGrady are fighting for the scoring title.I don't think you can compete with him. Look at Alan Houston now. He's depressed. He can't catch the ball at all.
"With Shaker here, it's meaningless for you to compete for the scoring title."
Kevin Garnett also reminded Kobe.
As an insider, Kevin Garnett admires O'Neal very much.The existence of O'Neal has doubled the value of the league's insiders, and anyone who has a little meat and weighs more than 270 pounds can get a premium contract.
No way, someone has to carry the shark in the paint, right?
Although the Sharks dominate the paint area, they also allow the players in the paint area to get real benefits.
Therefore, there is no meat shield center in the league today who is not grateful to O'Neal.Even Dampier's kind of brainless goods can only call themselves: I am the second center in the Western Conference.
Although this is disrespectful to Yao Huang, it is full of respect to O'Neill.
"So, you guys really plan to discuss the basketball issue so seriously, don't you plan to go to Los Angeles to have a happy time?" Stephen Marbury stood up, and he decided to expose this group of 'sanctuary' guys. "Jack, this is your territory, quickly ask your supermodel girlfriend to call to organize a party!!"
Van Heede knew he was talking about Cindy Crawford.
But he said sternly: "I have already gone to New York to develop, and I am not familiar with it here. You can find Kobe."
When Kobe heard this, he immediately shivered.He quickly waved his hands: "I don't do these things now. I don't have money to buy big diamond rings."
Kobe was an honest man.
His words made everyone laugh.
Everyone knows what he means, but he bought a million-dollar diamond ring to coax Vanessa.
And Vanessa did show the demeanor of a good wife and mother. She has always stood firmly on Kobe's side. She attended the press conference and accused the other party of blackmail.
Of course, this is indeed a blackmail.
However, in the United States, the laws are very strict, which is not so beneficial to Kobe.
Therefore, an out-of-court settlement is the best way.
Losing a sum of money is regarded as spending money to eliminate disasters.
A few people were chatting happily, and Reggie Miller walked in. His expression was still sad, but his eyes were already very firm.
When he saw the room full of people, he didn't shy away from it, and said directly to Fan Xi: "You can announce the deal."
Fan Xi quickly jumped up, and he rushed over excitedly to give Reggie Miller a strong hug.
At this time, Reggie Miller said in his ear: "Now, I am just following you. You must be responsible to me."
"If you don't win the championship, I will bite you to death!"
Reggie Miller said 'gritting his teeth'.
His words made the others bewildered.
After a while, Iverson reacted ahead of time, and he yelled: What! ! ! !
"You actually secretly communicated the song, Jack! You actually robbed Reggie Miller to the Knicks???"
Iverson screamed and stood up.
After the others reacted, they were all shocked.
Marbury even hugged his head.
Reggie Miller, although he is a bit old, but the older he gets, the more he is a monster. He is still the first rank in the league's shooter camp.The New York Knicks ushered in the full-scale explosion of Fan Xie this season. The outside partner also has Sprewell, plus a group of insiders in the penalty area... If the 3rd position gets Reggie Miller again, what the hell is going on in the East?
Kobe Bryant looked at Van Heede and Reggie Miller in shock. His voice even trembled a little. He felt that Reggie Miller's joining the Knicks would directly threaten the Lakers' championship. "is this real?"
Fan Xi nodded.
Reggie Miller is very pleased with the reaction of these guys. These guys are the mainstays of the NBA. Their reaction to this trade is so strong, it shows...he made the right choice.
Especially Kobe Bryant, who represents the strongest force in the West, even he lost his composure.
One can imagine how strong the earthquake this deal will generate will be.
"Jack, are you really planning to hit the championship this season?" Iverson asked Fanhee.
Iverson is the person in this group who has the least pursuit of this season's championship. He knows that the Sixers have now entered the reconstruction.
But both the Los Angeles Lakers and Minnesota Timberwolves are full of desire for a championship. They all dream of winning a championship.
"Why did the Pacers agree to this deal? It doesn't do them any good."
Kobe Bryant asked puzzled.
Reggie Miller answered his question: "Because they want me to win a championship."
This reason is upright and completely contrary to business rules, but it is full of human touch.
Moreover, the Pacers actually not only made this decision, but they also sent Stephen Jackson to the New York Knicks.
The New York Knicks will pay Muhammad, Lloyd Outt, Sam Anderson, 100 million cash and a 2005 first-round pick plus a 2007 second-round pick.
If there are no accidents, the Pacers will buy out Laot's contract at a very low price after the transaction is completed, and Laot will return to New York, but he is no longer a player, but an assistant head coach.
Before Reggie Miller agreed, the two teams had already negotiated all the details of the transaction.
The Pacers got Reggie Miller.
They know that Reggie Miller only has two or three years left in his career at most. There is no need to let him be locked in Indiana. It is better to let him go to New York City to chase his dream while he still has a little gas in his fuel tank.
At the same time, it is also paired with Stephen Jackson, the 3D player at the third position that the Knicks lack most.
Although Jackson is still suspended, but... when the playoffs come, he will be able to come back.
For the New York Knicks, the final piece of the puzzle was completed.
This is something that Isiah Thomas didn't even think about. He was beating all the way. He thought it was a corner, but he didn't expect that halfway through the season.
"Jack, you New York Knicks are too good at robbery. Larry Brown was originally grateful for the battle against the Palace of Auburn Hills, repelling the strongest competitor in the East, but he didn't expect you to form an opponent stronger than the Pacers. After tonight, they will definitely not be able to sleep."
When Iverson talked about this matter, he even gloated a little. He still hated Larry Brown for leaving Philadelphia.
Kobe Bryant sighed, he was ready to fight the Knicks in the finals.
Also ready are Marbury and Garnett, who both feel they can represent the West.
If you add the previous king Chris Webber, the whole west will be a mess!
Fan Xi had a panoramic view of the expressions of his good brothers, and he was very happy. The more chaotic the west, the better, and the more chaotic, the more troubled waters he can fish in.
