James Dolan's voice wasn't too loud, and there were overwhelming cheers outside, but it still made the two people next to him listen.
Charles Dolan does not hate Yang Mo, he even admires Yang Mo, but now that Yang Mo is Isiah Thomas's man, he has to oppose it even for the sake of opposition. Therefore, he did not forget what Youyou said:
"LeBron James can definitely bring us a championship."
What he said sounded like an unintentional sigh, but his actual meaning was very clear.
James Dolan turned his head and glanced at his son when he heard this. He said nothing, but suddenly hesitated for a moment between his brows. This action was instantly caught by Isiah Thomas, who subconsciously felt happy and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot:
"In fact, Super-Yang has made great progress. When he first entered the NBA, no one believed that he could gain a foothold in the penalty area. Now he can constantly defend the inside and grab rebounds and shoot three-pointers, and he can also launch attacks from the half court.
He will definitely become stronger in two years."
The meaning of Thomas's words is also very obvious, which is to tell the boss that we should take a longer-term view. This is a potential stock that may not be able to lead us to win the championship in the future.
James Dolan has also heard the legend of Yang Mo to some extent and knows what amazing things this rookie has done. Therefore, Isiah Thomas's words are particularly convincing in his ears.
"Charles, what do you think Young can bring to us if he joins the Knicks?" Dolan turned to his son and asked.
I suddenly asked this question, and Charles Dolan subconsciously didn't react, and then said: "Actually, I have known Super-Yang for a while, and I quite like his domineering style of play. But...he hasn't yet
There is no way to support a team alone. If we sign him, it is very likely that we can still maintain the current record in two to three years. Of course, there is no need to worry about the box office. But... winning is also very important."
After Charles Dolan said this, Isiah Thomas said: "I don't think super-yang's growth period needs to be so long at all. He can create such a good record when leading players as bad as the Heat, I
I think Charles’s understanding of Super-Yang is not comprehensive enough. Super-Yang is a person who can score 101 points in a single game. His offensive power can fully support a team. His average points per game in the Heat are not high.
It's because his shot rights are often ranked behind Wade, Jermaine O'Neal and even Michael Beasley."
"The 101 points were because of the rookie game." Charles Dolan argued rationally. He just didn't want Isiah Thomas to come back because he didn't want his property to be shrunk by him anymore.
"Even if it's the rookie game, it shows that Super-Yang's offensive firepower is no problem."
"But he's not stable enough."
"Stability can be developed."
"We don't have time to develop him."
"No, we have time to train. We are a big city and we are not in a hurry to win the championship. In fact, the last time we won the championship was in the 1980s."
"We haven't cleaned up the mess you left..."
The two of them were fighting with each other in an instant, with neither one willing to give in. And just when the fight between the needles and wheat peaks reached a fever pitch, James Dolan shouted: "That's enough!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them shut up at the same time. At the same time, Yang Mo on the screen in front of him threw a three-pointer expressionlessly. It was so fast, accurate and ruthless that Gallinani, who was guarding him, did not react at all.
James Dolan stared at the screen for a long time, and finally said: "Isiah, are you sure you can trade Super-Yang?"
"I'm 80% sure." Thomas clenched his fists and said with fighting spirit.
"Then how sure are you of signing LeBron James?" James Dolan turned to Charles Dolan, who had been responsible for contacting James' team and asked.
Charles Dolan was silent for two seconds with a heavy face, and said slightly frustrated: "They have never given a clear answer. We have the same chance as other teams."
"That's one-thirtieth?" James Dolan said majestically, raising his eyebrows.
James Dolan was obviously angry, but Charles could only answer bravely: "Yes."
In the Dolan family, honesty is more important than anything else.
"In addition to LeBron James, do you have a plan B?" Old Dolan asked his son while holding back his temper.
"Yes." Charles Dolan nodded quickly and said quickly: "If we can't get James, we will set our sights on Dwyane Wade or Carmelo Anthony, and we have even contacted Stoudemire.
.”
As soon as Charles Dolan finished speaking, Isiah Thomas next to him made an accurate comment: "Amar'e Stoudemire has undergone knee surgery and ligament surgery. And in December last year, he was super-
Yang was kicked off the court, and he was completely beaten by the fledgling super-Yang."
Isiah Thomas's words were a perfect last resort. After hearing this, Old Dolan immediately frowned and looked at Charles Dolan: "Is what Isiah said true?"
Charles Dolan nodded awkwardly: "Yes, Stoudemire did not gain an advantage in the duel with super-yang that night. But the game was not a one-on-one, it might just be Stoudemire
My playing style is just restrained by super-yang."
"Okay, Isiah, you go contact Super-Yang now. If we can get him, we will list him as plan A, LeBron as plan B, and Carmelo Anthony as plan C." James Dolan was very happy.
He made a decision quickly: "Isiah is right, we are a big city and we have enough time to wait for a star to mature. Moreover, this guy's market potential is so huge, we have no reason to reject him."
"But? Is he really worth it?" Charles Dolan still didn't agree with directly promoting Yang Mo to the position of Plan A.
"Charles, have you forgotten what our line of work is? We are in the television media. You should know how powerful a super idol is, and now super-yang is a super idol. He is the first person I have ever seen.
A player who can turn an away game into a home game, Michael Jordan could not conquer Madison Square Garden like he did tonight." James Dolan educated his son very seriously: "I know you have bad feelings for Isiah.
Emotions, but this should not affect your judgment of players. This is not what a qualified boss should do. Do you understand?"
"Understood." Charles Dolan nodded, fully understanding what his father meant.
At this time, James Dolan turned to Isiah Thomas and said: "The super-yang matter will be left to you. However, I can no longer appoint you as the general manager now. None of the New York fans like you, so you can
Let’s serve as Charles’ assistant first.”
"Well, okay." Isiah Thomas nodded. He was not dissatisfied with this decision at all. For him, as long as he had a chance to avenge his shame, it would be fine.
Just when James Dolan was happily making a decision, the court suddenly became chaotic. A closer look showed that the Heat's Michael Beasley and Jerome James were in a scuffle. At this moment, Yang Mo rushed over.
He pushed Jerome James, the big fat man who was choking Beasley's neck, three to four meters away, staggered and fell to the ground.
Wow!
Suddenly, Dolan and his son both exclaimed at the same time, this power is so amazing——
