I Am a Nobleman in England

Prokhorov is worth tens of billions of dollars. Although he is not the richest owner in the NBA, he definitely ranks second. And according to the ideas of local tyrants in Xiongguo, with reference to the success in Xiongguo and the experience of compatriot Abramovich in the Premier League, it is taken for granted that as long as I have money and am willing to spend money, I will definitely be able to use thick dollars in the NBA. , smashing out a champion.

In fact, just as Arthur thought, after Prokhorov in his previous life settled in the Nets, he even set a time limit for this championship—five years!

Of course, it can be said that the Nets have carried out drastic reforms, showing their pursuit of the championship. Even for the championship, sacrificed the future of the Nets at that time, traded out multiple draft picks, and at the cost of the luxury tax, got Pierce, Garnett, Deron, Joe Johnson, and Daluo. The stars are bright on the surface, but in fact such a lineup is too old and completely outdated. It can be called the five elders of death. . .

As people expected, the Nets did not go far in the playoffs with this lineup, and the Nets have gradually become a big team since then. Since then, the Nets have fallen into a nightmare that seems to never wake up. The bottom of the score, no draft pick, and the bottom of the score, still no pick!

If Prokhorov's arrogant idea is an act of ignorance that has not experienced the influence of NBA culture, then Arthur's attitude towards the NBA is patience, making full use of every draft pick, and completing the reconstruction of the Nets, not Spend money on a championship, because he, Arthur Bolling, really doesn't have that much spare money. . .

It has to be said that Arthur's earl aristocratic status is still very popular in the United States, and many people are willing to buy it, so he easily met with NBA president David Stern.

Moreover, NBA President David Stern also expressed support for Arthur's desire to acquire the Nets. Stern said that if Arthur can be successfully acquired, it will be a great opportunity for the NBA to further expand globally.

And it is worth mentioning that with such a successful acquisition, the Nets will become the first team in NBA history to be purchased and controlled by foreigners.

"...In the season that ended before, the performance of the Nets was indeed a bit "unsightly". The team almost became the team with the worst record in history. The current Nets really need a "savior" urgently Appeared and led the Nets to achieve a "salted fish turnaround". I am very much looking forward to your joining, which will also make the NBA younger and younger." David Stern looked at Arthur with a smile on his old face and said happily .

"Thank you. Facts have fully proved that the NBA is an extremely successful business body. It would be my honor to join this big family. To get the hard-won Nets out of the quagmire, some scientific reforms are needed. To have enough patience.

I have always been opposed to using money to pile up big-name stars so that the team can achieve a short-term explosion. That may win the present, but it will definitely lose the future. "Arthur smiled and said his idea. After seeing David Stern nodding in agreement, he continued: "Mr. President, maybe you should have heard of it. Those who are also interested in the Nets are There was a merchant from the bear country.

The other party is the largest gold supplier of Xiongguo. He once invested several times more than other teams in Xiongguo and led a team to win two championship titles. After seeing compatriot Abramovich's success in Chelsea, he also tried to create a "Chelsea myth" in the NBA.

Moreover, as far as I know, Mr. Prokhorov’s many investments violate the laws of the United States, so if possible, I suggest that the NBA can thoroughly investigate Mr. Prokhorov’s personal background and review him as the owner of the NBA team. person's qualifications. Including Mr. Prokhorov's company and personal experience in Russia,

These are all aspects that the NBA needs to consider and investigate. . . "

"hehe..."

Hearing Arthur's obviously slanderous words, David Stern first showed astonishment, then his eyes flashed brightly, and he looked at Arthur with the same bright eyes, watching Arthur's expression that did not change at all , shaking his head and laughing.

"I have also heard about Mr. Prokhorov's situation. It is really disgraceful that he squandered tens of millions in Italy for two weeks and was arrested, but such things make him unreliable. ...is somewhat arbitrary.

However, his deep background does require careful consideration and investigation. If something happens that violates US laws and policies, then our alliance will naturally not welcome such a person to join. "

Hearing David Stern's ambiguous excuses, Arthur was not disappointed. He knew that for a person like David Stern, it didn't matter who joined the alliance, as long as it could bring money and promote the alliance It works.

Whether it is the British market after Arthur's joining or the Xiongguo market after Prokhorov's joining, they have greatly promoted the expansion of the alliance in the international market. Repel another rich man.

It's just that [UU Reading 00kxs], Arthur was already planning to make trouble. Now that he has done his face with David Stern and put eye drops on his opponent, then he will attack the opponent in the next step. The plan to make a fuss about the issue of identity and background will naturally continue.

After intentionally releasing rumors that he was going to acquire the Nets, the negotiations ended the next day. When Arthur walked out of the Forest Group Building in New York City, he was blocked by the New York reporters who had already received the rumors.

"Yes, I do intend to acquire the New Jersey Nets. I hope to bring such an excellent NBA game to British audiences. What better way to attract people to participate than having a team that belongs to them?"

Facing the crowd of reporters surrounding him, Arthur answered the reporters under the protection of his bodyguards with a bright smile on his face.

"As far as I know, the owner of the Nets had an agreement with the billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov of the Bear Country at the end of last year. Mikhail Prokhorov also promised that it would take five years What do you think about coming back with a championship?"

"Hehe, agreement? What agreement? As far as I know, the Nets are still in a state of sale. Before the transaction is completed, no one knows what the final result will be, right?

As for using money to win a championship within five years, I can only say that those who say such things have such arrogant thoughts because they have not experienced the ignorance of NBA culture. . . "

"Hahaha. .."

Hearing Arthur complain about the arrogance of the rich man in Xiong Country, all the New York reporters present could not help but laugh out loud. For Xiong Country people, they would instinctively repel them. There was no need for Arthur to fan the flames, the hostility in their bones And prejudice, make everything.

"Moreover, I don't support this kind of gold dollar sports. It's just exchanging the future of the team for the short-term glory of the present. Well, maybe some people really don't care about the luxury tax. If I remember correctly, this year and next two years, Many superstars in the league will become free agents, tsk tsk, if this kind of person who wants to spend money on the championship enters the league, I think the owners of many teams will not sleep well!" The corner of Arthur's mouth rose, and a With a mischievous smirk on his face, he joked.

"Ha ha..."

The reporters at the scene burst into laughter again.

"Hearing what you said, you don't want to invest huge sums of money to build a superstar team, right?"

"As for how to run a team, I trust professionals more, but as far as my personal philosophy is concerned, I value the future of the team more. The current results don't mean anything. After all, as long as there are good draft picks in hand, the team can have a future. , and as far as I know, the Nets have a lot of good signings in their hands. I firmly believe that the future of the Nets will be better.

As for superstars, well, I also like superstars. After all, the psychological factors of the team leaders are also very important, which directly determines the team's spirit and upper limit. At the same time, the team's chemistry and sacrifice must not be ignored. If I take over the Nets, the two things I will do are to find a more professional general manager for it, and then use all the draft picks in my hands to rebuild the team! Arthur said calmly and firmly, full of confidence.
