"Dammit?"
He instinctively rubbed his eyes before he could make out the differences.
However, a bold idea had appeared in his mind.
Su Wan had been observing Grover’s expression, and seeing him dumbfounded only confird his belief that they could definitely prank Michael Jordan.
Afterwards, when Danilo Gallinari and Little Thomas arrived and saw Jimmy Butler, their faces registered surprise.
Jimmy Butler himself felt a bit embarrassed.
He had never realized how much he resembled the "God of Basketball" before.
It was only after he got a haircut, and the barber exclaid in astonishnt, "Isn’t this Michael Jordan?" that he noticed.
Grover said, "Man, I believe in you, you can definitely beco a superstar!"
"What’s the plan, Tim, you call the shots now!"
Everyone had arrived, and the training officially started.
Grover first tested everyone’s physical fitness, particularly taking ticulous care in training Stephen Curry, as he needed to observe Stephen Curry’s power movents and areas that could be anded.
Stephen Curry no longer resisted changing his way of generating power, and given the current labor-capital relations, many dia outlets believed that the new season could not possibly start on schedule.
For this reason, he had plenty of ti to change his power generation technique.
He was actually inclined to change it, as he didn’t want to keep spraining his ankle.
Two days later, the Knicks players began their intensive training as arranged by Grover.
During his visit, Michael Jordan saw Jimmy Butler and was completely stunned. His lips moved, but no words ca out.
He turned his head toward Su Wan, who was barely holding back a laugh, and cursed fiercely, "You bitch!"
When they faced each other, Su Wan blurted out unexpectedly, "Jimmy was born in Houston. Think carefully about whether you made any mistakes there!"
"Fuck you, you bitch!" Michael Jordan stord off, fuming.
Su Wan smiled with satisfaction.
The prank was a huge success!
Most of August was spent in special training.
During this period, Su Wan attended the launch of his "Su Wan 7" and then spent all his ti imrsed in the training gym.
Mainly, he had called these players to train, then he himself went out for business, which was sowhat questionable.
Regardless, as the team leader, he should lead by example!
The training over this month showed significant progress.
Especially for rookies Jimmy Butler and Thomas, their competitive abilities had reached NBA standards, and with constant reinforcent training accompanied by Su Wan and others, their skills continuously improved.
If the NBA hosted a sumr league now, they would definitely be among the brightest stars!
In September, the labor and capital sides still had not reached an agreent.
Currently, there were still huge differences on major issues such as a "hard salary cap" system and "profit sharing."
The players were willing to accept a proposal that reduced the total salary by $500 million within five years, but they rejected the capital side’s proposal of a $62 million hard salary cap.
The capital side hoped to reach a 10-year deal, ensuring that the annual salary expenditure did not exceed $2 billion, but this season the figure had already reached $2.17 billion, which was unacceptable to the player’s side over a 10-year labor agreent.
Next, the labor and capital sides would continue to negotiate these major differences.
David Stern announced that the September training camps and preseason gas for all teams were canceled, "We hope to end the negotiations by the end of November, but if the situation is not optimistic, the lockout will continue until the end of 2011!"
With this news, many NBA players beca anxious.
Especially those who relied on the minimum wage to make ends et. They were not like the superstars, and even compared to middle-contract players, they were far worse off. Without gas, their survival was at stake.
They began to prospect in overseas leagues.
Among them, the CBA in Huaxia beca the choice for many NBA players.
Wilson Chandler, Brooks, JR Smith, Patrick Mills, and others even signed contracts with CBA teams.
The dostic dia called for more NBA superstars to co play in the CBA.
Especially for Su Wan, there were high expectations.
But Su Wan did not want any dostic CBA club to profit from his influence.
There was no need without a personal connection.
Unless...
He created his own team.
Su Wan imdiately announced in front of the dia, "If the CBA allows to own my own team, I will consider playing."
These words stirred up intense anticipation among dostic fans.
Then, the CBA chairman really contacted Su Wan, offering to sell him a CBA slot.
After all, having a top influencer like Su Wan own a CBA team was sothing they were happy to see, even without the current situation.
It could bring extra exposure.
As soon as Su Wan nodded, the CBA association expedited the process, directly handling all the paperwork for Su Wan.
As for the ho stadium for the team...
Su Wan said, "I can handle that myself!"
In less than three days, Su Wan directly owned his CBA team:
Magic City Drears Team.
The new CBA season was set to start on October 13.
This ant that Su Wan had a month and a half to get people on board.
