954. This candy is delicious (Part 4)

Taking my sister on an expedition made me feel a lot happier.

Zu Ge has not been to San Antonio yet, so Sun Ce brought her with him this time. Anyway, this girl is full of energy and is not tired from flying continuously. Sun Ce can at least tease his little sister when the schedule is so tight that it is crazy.

Cultivation of sentiment.

Zu'e's side is still more than a month away from the holiday, but she has almost passed the school exam, and her grades are enough to get into a good public high school. Now she reviews her homework every day, mainly because she wants to get into a private high school, even if

If you stay at Lausanne High School to study in high school, you will also have to take the entrance exam for the high school department of the school at the end of May.

Therefore, asking for leave has become very easy, and the school also encourages students to go out and see more. Sun Ce couldn't help but complain that so much tuition fees were paid in vain, why there is no three-year high school entrance examination and five-year simulation.

On April 10th, Sun Ce and Zue came to Dallas with the team. The Grizzlies have another day off today and will start 6 games in 8 days tomorrow, which is three consecutive back-to-back games. However, the opponents are similar. The Mavericks had already

Went to San Antonio, the Mavericks played the Spurs and the Grizzlies back to back, the Spurs played the Mavericks tonight and the Grizzlies the day after tomorrow.

In these three days, the three favorites in Texas faced off against each other. The Spurs were slightly better. There was a day off in the middle when the Grizzlies and Mavericks were back-to-back.

After arriving at the hotel and having lunch, Sun Ce took Zu Ge to watch a horse race. While watching the horse race, he met a very chatty white uncle. He seemed to be an old gambler. He knew every horse and spoke like a treasure.

The performance of each horse participating in the competition, as well as their "personality characteristics", feel as if they are more familiar to me than my own wife.

In the evening, Sun Ce and his teammates watched the live broadcast of the game between the Mavericks and the Spurs. Both teams played with all their main players. In the end, the Mavericks relied on Yao Ming to score 5 points in consecutive singles against Split at the critical moment, winning 111 to 111.

108 narrowly defeated the Spurs.

While watching the game, Sun Ce suddenly discovered something. The Spurs, who have been keeping a low profile this season, had 11 wins and 1 loss in the past 12 games. If they had not lost to the Mavericks in this game, they would have overtaken the Lakers.

After this game, the Spurs' record became 40 wins and 16 losses, and they continued to be overwhelmed by the 41 wins and 16 losses of the Lakers. The Mavericks, who defeated the Spurs, became 31 wins and 25 losses, temporarily ranking seventh in the Western Conference.

.

Seeing that the Spurs had 11 wins and 2 losses in the past 13 games, and there were not many reports about the 11 wins and 1 loss in the past period before losing to the Mavericks, Sun Ce really wanted to ask: Why?

Nowadays, the "Grizzlies threat theory" has emerged among the NBA media and fans, but the Spurs, a team that can become a big devil if given a human shield center, can still be so low-key!

From late March to now, due to their good performance, Paul + Kobe + Gasol have been said to be the ultimate giant combination that dominates the three positions. However, from late March to now, the record

It's only 11 wins and 3 losses, which is not as good as the Spurs.

As for the Grizzlies, they have lost 4 games since the All-Star break, which is as many games as the Spurs. They are already regarded as "big villains."

Why can the Spurs keep such a low profile despite having such a good record?

Sun Ce felt this was so unfair!

Putting aside his personal emotions, Sun Ce felt the power of the Mavericks and Spurs, two teams dominated by veterans, from this live broadcast.

It is indeed very powerful. The head coaches of the two teams are probably the two best current head coaches. Carlisle is good at making detailed adjustments on the court and reacting on the spot. Popovich also reacts very well on the spot, and the pre-game arrangements are very strong.

, not losing to Zen Master Phil Jackson.

The rotation adjustments and tactical changes between the two were clearly demonstrated in this game.

Watching the game from the perspective of a fan, Sun Ce enjoyed watching it, and he also saw the championship-level strength displayed by these two teams when they carefully prepared how to deal with their opponents... Sun Ce still didn't understand, and Popovich wanted it very much.

After overtaking the Lakers and wanting home court advantage, why are the Mavericks still seventh in the Western Conference? This is completely inconsistent with the strength they have shown.



After a night's rest, on April 11th, Sun Ce woke up the sleeping goose in the morning. After breakfast, Sun Ce took the goose, and the goose brought his homework and followed the team to the American Airlines Center.

Prepare for tonight's game.

After the morning pre-game meeting and tactical training, the Mavericks also returned to Dallas from San Antonio.

During the two-day break, the Grizzlies began to rest after returning to Memphis. There was no training scheduled when they arrived in Dallas yesterday. It was now the last 11 games of the regular season. Sun Ce and his teammates were gradually in high spirits.

We are tired, just get through it, and other teams are also tired. For example, tonight's opponent, the Mavericks, had a bloody battle with the Spurs yesterday at a critical moment. In the last quarter, they still relied on Jason Terry to chase points, and Yao Ming sealed the victory.

They have the physical advantage tonight.

After preparing for the game in the morning, rest in the afternoon, gather at the American Airlines Arena at 4 o'clock, have dinner, warm up, and the game starts at 8 o'clock in the evening.

Sun Ce took Zu Ge back to the hotel, ready to watch the video of last night's game between the Mavericks and the Spurs again, to have a clearer understanding of how the Mavericks played in recent games and what the differences were.

But when I returned to the hotel room and turned on the TV, I saw the sports channel of the American cable TV station where I watched sports news last night. It was broadcasting the NBA's press conference. The content was about a rumor that started to leak out at the beginning of this season. There were already rumors a few days ago about the NBA.

David Stern is about to make a decision. Sun Ce also learned from the team management that the boss has been staying in New York since April. Not only their boss of the Grizzlies, but also the bosses of all teams in the league have gathered together.

When we arrived in New York, we were discussing with the league who the next president would be, voting, etc.

The decision was finally officially announced today!

In the press room of the NBA headquarters in Manhattan, New York, David Stern actually wore a peaked cap with the NBA logo on it today. In front of the world's sports media and the cameras of the American cable TV station that broadcast the press conference, he announced: "

Ladies and gentlemen, in the fifth NBA President's Draft, David Stern selected the NBA's most talented business genius, Adam Silva!

I will step down as NBA president on February 1, 2014, the last day of my 30-year tenure as president, and Adam will continue to lead the NBA forward. I believe Adam can lead the NBA to new glory."

After saying that, just like in the draft, Adam Silva came up and shook hands with David Stern. David Stern took off his hat and put it on Adam Silva...

Seeing that David Stern is retiring, people have become a lot more lively. Let me say a moment of silence for this old man: You will be pissed off in the future!

God knows what the NBA will be like in the future. Anyway, he is not afraid of someone like Sun. Just play his ball. We will talk about the future later. If you really don’t like the campus beauty in the future, then keep playing and see who can’t handle it and retire first.

!

Looking at his special skills transformed from Stockton’s characteristics, his grandson is currently 22 years old. David Stern has decided to retire at the age of 72. He just saw that the school beauty is currently 50 years old, 22 years old...

...can boil him to death!





On the other side, Manhattan Island, New York, NBA headquarters.

After the press conference, David Stern left early.

Human beings have always been very realistic. When David Stern had not decided on the time to retire, there was a huge crowd of people every time he sneezed. I don’t know how many people came to say hello.

Now maybe even if he is seriously ill, he will probably be left alone.

And Adam Silva, who returned to the office area, became the target of major league officials in the NBA headquarters.

Stu Jackson, who failed to compete for the position of president, also left early. Mark Tatum, who was expected to take over the position of vice president of business operations after Adam Silva succeeded as president, accepted the offer from his colleagues after Adam Silva accepted the position.

Fart Queen said: "Adam, let's have a party tonight to celebrate!"

These words have reached the hearts of my colleagues. This kind of flattery will not work. Just drink two drinks.

"We are very busy at work this year. There is no need to waste time celebrating me. Everyone should do the work at hand and rest early. The future of the league depends on our joint efforts, not me alone."

Adam Silva was so moved by what he said, but how many people would believe it... He didn't care, the face-saving project had to be done well.

After returning to his office, he sent away his secretary and closed the door. Adam Silva finally couldn't help laughing wildly.

That high-pitched voice would definitely frighten anyone who was there.

After laughing for a while, Adam Silva looked at the gifts piled in his office. Since the team bosses came to New York at the beginning of the month and rumors began to spread that he would succeed the NBA president, he has received many gifts from many teams, many agents, and many TV stations.

And newspaper editors...even some players sent gifts.

The voting of the team owners has ended a few days ago, and it has been confirmed that he will become the next president. However, these days David Stern has been thinking about when to retire, which makes Adam Silva have no time to watch.

No matter what kind of gift I received, I didn’t care.

David Stern has never said when he will retire, which has made Adam Silva unable to calm down. Now it is finally confirmed that in less than two years, he will be able to sit in the position he has waited for more than ten years.

.

Now looking at this pile of gifts, Adam Silva felt so happy. He looked through the gifts. There was a fresh fruit basket that just arrived this morning, a watch from James, and a gift from James Dolan, the owner of the American cable TV station.

Lifetime VIP of a nightclub...and a candy basket, written as a gift from Sun Ce.

This actually surprised Adam Silva. James is a good person, so he gave him a brand-name watch. Adam Silva didn't find it strange that Sun Ce actually gave him a gift.

It happened that Adam Silva was very excited now and wanted to eat something sweet. He picked up the beautifully packaged box in the middle of the candy basket and opened it, revealing a candy ball.
