Chapter 589 Do they really care?
On January 3, Ji Guomo returned, the two brothers scored 61 points together, and the Clippers defeated the Rockets away.
Ji Guochou contributed 24 points, 12 rebounds and 6 assists, Ji Guomomoto scored 37 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists, and Billups scored 12 points and 9 assists.
On January 5, the Clippers slaughtered the Trail Blazers at home with 25 points. The two brothers finished their three quarters and easily won the 31st win.
Ji Guochou contributed 12 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists, while Ji Guomori scored 28 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists.
After the Clippers defeated the Rockets, they couldn't help but put the title on the homepage - Who can sink the Clippers?
Perhaps in your impression, the "Cosmic Team" is only Barcelona.
But now, a team that has made the Earthlings helpless have appeared in the NBA arena: the Los Angeles Clippers.
The Clippers defeated the Rockets and expanded their winning streak to 31 games. They only have 2 games left to tie the Lakers' 33 winning streak, and their away winning streak has reached 15 games, just one game away from the Lakers' away winning streak in the 1971-72 season.
So, among the opponents of the Clippers' next three games, which team can emerge and take on the heavy responsibility of "iceberg"?
But to be honest, it is not easy to pass the level of the animal brothers.
Two days later, the Clippers will fight the Lakers again at home. The Clippers, who have won 31 consecutive games, only have to defeat their mortal enemies. The next two opponents are the Heat and the Grizzlies. It is not difficult for the Clippers to defeat these two teams. This means that if the Lakers want to stop the Clippers from surpassing themselves, they must completely sink the Clippers on No. 7 and end the latter's winning streak. Otherwise, the Clippers will have a high chance to break the Lakers' 33 consecutive games and 16 consecutive games away.
In the game against the Rockets, Ji Guomeng contributed 28 points in the third quarter. After his comeback, the Fox brother is still the leader in the scoring list. Durant not long ago only scored 11 points under the Jazz's defense. Now the gap between the two has been reduced by more than one point.
After the game, the Fox brother was still unsatisfied and did not hide his ambitions. He said, "Iverson, Kobe is old, I think I will become the new scoring champion. Not only one class, I will learn from senior Michael and try to make only one name on the scoring list in the next ten years - that is me."
After hearing this, Durant may be anxious to get angry. But when facing a strong defensive team, he really does not have the excellent scoring ability as Ji Guomeng. Oklahoma media believes that this is Ji Guomeng's advantage of the team's strong strength. Panda brother attracted him to defend in the inside, so the defensive intensity he faced in the game was not as good as Durant, so he could lead in the scoring list.
This reason is somewhat reasonable, but in this world, heroes are always judged by success or failure. At the beginning, many people thought that Jordan borrowed Pippen's light. But after so many years, Jordan was still the god of basketball in the eyes of fans, but how awesome Pippen was at that time is probably not known.
Besides, Pi Er Ge's later performance in the Rockets proved Jordan's greatness.
When it comes to Pi Er Ge’s contract, the media outside Los Angeles can now disgust the Clippers’ only the annual salary of the two brothers.
In 1991, although Batman was famous at that time, it was not as famous as it was in the future. The Bulls' manager who looked like Kung Fu Panda was very kind and suggested that Pippen sign a short contract to facilitate the price increase in the future. However, Pi's second brother had no ambitions and was injured in his back, for fear that the team would not pay for retirement. He was determined to have a long contract. The Panda manager and Feiren refused to follow suit, and finally decided to have a 20 million yuan in 7 years, and his salary would go from high to low from the second year.
At that time, Jordan's contract was only 23 million for 7 years, and Pippen was naturally heartbroken. He never thought that things were impermanent and the world changed. In a few years, the contract prices in the alliance rose desperately just like the house, oil and meat prices in China later. Even Uncle Huo and others could have a big contract of hundreds of millions. Bat was angry and regretful, so he had to admit his bad luck. From then on, his donkey face became even more terrifying.
But the media also knows that the two brothers are definitely not short of money now. Last year they were able to spend tens of millions of dollars to acquire the game studio. Now the brothers’ mobile phones are selling well all over the world. It is hard to know how much their net worth is, but they will never take millions of dollars seriously.
The two brothers' companies have never been listed. Although they can obtain more financial support after listing, the stock price will soar, which will double their wealth. But Ji Guoqiu said early on, "The essence of the capital market is greed. If you really want to do a good job in a company, you don't have to go public."
"The benefits of listing are nothing more than raising money and obtaining the funds needed to develop a company. If you go public, the environment will be different. You have to be responsible for the shareholders. You have to ensure that the stock continues to rise and profits will become the only purpose of the company's existence. Such companies will become very impetuous, as impetuous and greedy as today's society. Moreover, I don't want noise to interfere with the company, interfere with my plans, or my dreams. I know very well what I want, and I know what I want. We have no ambition to turn our company into the Fortune 500 world. We just want to do what we like, and just want to do something that suits our philosophy."
In fact, both abroad and at home, there are a large number of people who insist on not listing their companies because they are very clear about what they want and they all have their own ideas.
The Wall Street Journal has always been very smart. On January 5, the Clippers had just defeated the Rockets and they revealed a big news that the Animal Brothers were interested in buying the New Jersey Nets.
The news is explosive. Although it has not been confirmed, the Wall Street Journal has its own exclusive news, claiming that they have received rumors that this time the negotiations are not the twin brothers themselves, but the father-in-law of Panda Brother.
This happened last November, when the New York District Court ruled that some Brooklyn tenants, owners and environmental organizations challenged the Nets' owners to be unsecured, and the Nets have land acquisition rights for the newly built home court and surrounding overall real estate development in Brooklyn.
However, the government requires that the new stadium invested by Nets owners must break ground before June 2010, otherwise it will incur heavy taxes and breach of contract fines. Moreover, if the construction is not started before June, it will be difficult for the Nets to debut in the new stadium in 2013 as planned.
The current owner of the Nets is New York real estate developer Ratner. Since he joined the Nets, he has been planning to move the team to Brooklyn. According to the original plan, the Nets are planning to move to Brooklyn's new home court this year. However, their overall development plan in Brooklyn has been legally challenged by tenants, owners and environmental organizations. So to this day, the new stadium has not yet been able to lay the foundation. And over time, the investment in this development project has risen to $4.9 billion. Every day is a loss of countless dollars.
Ratner invests so much in this development project, among the best in the United States. In addition to the new stadium, it also includes real estate development. Ratner plans to build 16 high-rise buildings around the stadium and will provide 6,430 housing units. These are Ratner's main goals, and the stadium is just the key to his building.
In order to raise funds as soon as possible, Ratner started looking for partners at the end of last year. Because the investment in the entire development plan was too large, he was unable to complete the construction of the stadium, so he was preparing to throw the Nets out with the new stadium in exchange for the funds to build 16 buildings. So in November last year, the two brothers had already had contact with Ratner.
The two sides had secretly signed an agreement in November last year, and the two brothers launched their father-in-law and bought 90% of the Nets' shares for $500 million, while also holding 50% of the Nets' shares in the new venue "Barcles Center" in Brooklyn.
NBA has explicit regulations that active players cannot own any team shares. Therefore, the owner of the Nets is Emma Roberts. However, Ji Guoqiu had already agreed with his fiancée. After he and the Dead Fox retired, the Nets' shares will be officially handed over to them.
In January this year, this acquisition proposal will be reported to the league. As long as two-thirds of the NBA bosses raise their hands to agree before the end of the season, they can officially become the Nets' behind-the-scenes bosses. They believe that no one will object to this proposal. Many team owners now dislike the Clippers and Sterling, and they will not vote against it at this time.
Now that I heard this news, the only person who was anxious was Sterling.
Lao's ass can't do anything about it, but he also made plans. Even if the two brothers secretly bought a team, he would never let them go. Before the second contract expires, these two little bastards will not leave. After the contract expires in 2011, he will match any offer without hesitation.
However, I don’t know if I was so angry that I was confused when I heard this news. That night, Sterling found that his girlfriend Steviano uploaded a photo with Magic Johnson on Instagram. She was furious and scolded her for not being able to mingle with black people, not bring black people to the Clippers game, not spread black things, etc. racist remarks.
"You want to spread this thing you are dating black people upset me, do you have to do this? You can sleep with black people, you can take them home, you can do whatever you want. My little request from you is not to spread it... Don't bring them into my game. Don't put him on instagram to let the whole world know."
Sterling made the phone call for ten minutes, but he never expected that 80-year-old man like him on the list would naturally not have any true intentions. Every time the two of them talked on their phones, the latter would record it whenever they had the chance and wait for the right time.
Steviano did not get what she really wanted with Sterling, the old stingy man. Sterling was not a good man. How could he not know the woman's mind? So until now, even the four million house she lived in could be taken back by Sterling at any time.
Sterling was almost no longer interested in her. Steviano knew that once she was dumped by the old stingy, it was basically impossible to go to the list of other rich people. She was not a woman with a superb appearance. She was also a second-hand product used by Sterling, an 80-year-old man, so no one would be interested.
A woman's heart is much more hated than a man. If it were normal, Sterling might not have said so many wrong things, but she was first angry by the Wall Street Journal news, and then she was furious by this photo. She did not find that his girlfriend deliberately guided him to speak in this regard.
On January 7, the Clippers played against the Lakers at home today. Sterling didn't know that he was about to be in trouble. Today, the whole world's attention was focused on this game.
Can the Clippers break the 33-game winning streak record? Success or failure will be achieved in one fell swoop.
The day before the game, Nicholson faced the media and asked: Why is the Clippers worth 33 consecutive victories?
Da Bendan wrote on the day of the competition: The key is the animal brothers, they are the most dominant combination in the past 20 years.
As the defending champion, it is not surprising that the Clippers play well, but it is really shocking to play so well.
Da Bendan believes that the current Clippers are almost invincible: "The team is basically healthy and has a neat lineup. The dual core has played a very rare level in the past 20 years. This season, the two brothers' skills are still improving, very comprehensive, and have extremely lethality at critical moments. I believe that there are no more than ten players who have reached this level in the past 20 years. From the perspective of the entire Clippers team, this is a team with very clear goals and ambitions for the championship. The defending of the title last season increased their championship and made them more confident. Extreme desire and special confidence have made this team very stable, so there is nothing strange to achieve the current winning streak."
Da Bendan said that he was optimistic about the Clippers breaking the NBA record of 33 consecutive games. "From the strength, there is no team in the entire league to compete with them; from the morale perspective, the Clippers are now united and have high fighting spirit." The big fool said, "Yes, there is always luck in the game, but unless a particularly big accident occurs, I think the Clippers are likely to create a new NBA record of NBA winning streak, and they are worthy of it."
Long before the Clippers and Rockets, Byron Davis was asked how to view the Clippers' winning streak. The bearded man said: "Their performance really didn't impress me. For me, what's more important is our team's current state and how we should condense into a team."
When asked if I hope the Clippers will still maintain a winning streak when they are playing against them, Davis replied: "I really don't care. I hope they lose all the remaining games of the season, but I only care about our team now."
Kobe naturally couldn't escape the same question. Pan said: "It's hard for the Clippers to beat now, but we won't care too much about their winning streak. As long as we play our own game well, no matter how many winning streaks they win, they won't affect us."
Like the players, Zen masters are more concerned about the Lakers' performance rather than whether the Clippers can continue to win streak. "I don't care. Whether they continue to win streak or the winning streak is over, we have to meet them. We will be prepared, and I'm sure they will be prepared too."
Ji Guomeng said to this: "It can be seen that they are more pressure than us. Also, don't listen to them. How could the Lakers not care? If they turn around, I will definitely try my best to end their winning streak. If they really don't care, it means they have lost the confidence to be our enemy, so I really hope they don't care, but do they really care?"
