NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 1365 Suspension of Broadcasting Contract Negotiations
"Hammer, your fans have reached 300 million comments on your Twitter. They want you to stay. Will you do what they want?"

ESPN reporter asked.

Li Ba shook his head without hesitation and said: "The kind of game they want to see, even if I stay, they won't see it again, so what am I doing staying? Raise your hands like a clown, and then look at others projected on my head?"

"What do you think of the illegal contact rules?" a reporter asked.

"Ugly rules, the rules that will knock the NBA down from No. [-] in the four major professional sports leagues in North America, mark my words, that day isn't too far away."

Li Ba sneered.

"Iron Hammer, the Suns lead [-]-[-], will you try to sweep the Heat?" Yu Jia asked excitedly.

"Must." Li Ba smiled.

At this point the Heat players returned to the locker room.

Several forward players were ravaged by Li Ba and Drummond for the entire game, and suffered great physical and mental injuries. After returning to the locker room, they sat directly in the chairs and did not even take a shower.

Millsap rubbed his chest, feeling like he'd been run over by a wheel.

He lifted his jersey, his entire chest was bruised, and his bones were aching.

There was a fear spreading in his heart, he no longer wanted to stand in front of that beast.

"We can't go on like this anymore, this kind of game is too disappointing, what are you afraid of?"

At this time, James' voice sounded, full of anger.

He glared at his teammates, but no one responded.

Disappointed, he angrily kicked over the trash can next to him, and then punched the wardrobe again. With a bang, he punched a big hole.

"LeBron, don't do this."

Wade, who was standing behind James, quickly hugged him.

"What happened?"

The door was pushed open suddenly, and a security guard from outside broke in and asked.

"Get out, this is our internal business!" Wade quickly shouted at the security personnel.

He didn't want news of the team's infighting to spread at such a critical time. These security guards would not keep secrets for them.

The security guard glanced at the smashed wardrobe and said, "You'll get your bill," before exiting the locker room.

"We'll pay the bill, just send it." Wade shouted angrily.

That's when Pat Riley and Eric Spoelstra came in, their moods getting worse when they saw the smashed wardrobes and kicked-out trash cans.

Losing two games in a row, if there is another problem in the locker room, how will we play in the finals?
Pat Riley now regrets trading Gasol Jr. The five-forward lineup was not successfully built. Instead, the traditional center lineup was dismantled.

After a bout of diarrhea, the emotions such as anger and helplessness in James' heart have not weakened, and they are still held in his heart.

There is no chance, he knows that there is no chance to defeat Li Ba before he retires.

With such a heat, there is no chance at all.

He dreamed of winning Li Ba in the finals, but unfortunately, he failed to grasp this last chance.

This depressed and helpless feeling made him want to vomit blood.

Wade's fears came true. Before the post-game press conference, the security guard sold the news to the media, and the media immediately broke the news on the Internet, so when James and Wade were about to leave the locker room, they knew This news.

"Damn guy!" Wade cursed.

"The media will definitely be staring at this matter, LeBron, you don't want to go." Pat Riley said.

James nodded. He didn't want to go at all, which was fine.

Pat Riley told Wade again: "Dwayne, don't talk nonsense at the press conference, and don't answer related questions."

"I understand." Wade said.

The conference begins.

The news about the Heat's locker room has become the target of media fire.

Li Ba watched the excitement for a while, and felt that the Heat might not be able to sustain it next season.

In his view, Pat Riley's lineup building has failed, and this Heat team is inferior to the Lakers.

Of course, in fact, the Lakers' regular season record is the first in the league.

The next morning, the Heat reported through the media the injury of the starting power forward Favors, who had a mild concussion. Although the injury was not serious, he would not be able to play in the finals.

In the afternoon, the Suns and Heat arrived in Miami one after another.

The G3 battle will start tomorrow. After the Suns arrived at the hotel, they did not arrange any training, but just rested in place.

Li Ba's family also came here this time, because if the team sweeps the Heat to win the championship, they also want to be there to celebrate the last championship with Li Ba.

And just this afternoon, Stern received several news, including major broadcasters such as TNT, ESPN, ABC, etc., invariably notified the league and officially stopped the negotiation of the broadcast contract.

The league's broadcast contract will end in 2016, that is, there are only two seasons left. Negotiations for a new contract are already underway. Stern has been leading this very important thing for the league, because with the return of the Hammers , The ratings have skyrocketed, so he has great expectations for this new contract. The league is likely to reach the top of the four major sports leagues with this huge contract.

The amount of the old contract is 8.5 million U.S. dollars per year. With the rise of the hammer, the ratings have skyrocketed, making several major broadcasters a lot of money, so his expectation for the new contract is that the annual amount should at least reach 5 million U.S. dollars of the old contract. up to 7 times, preferably up to ten years.

As long as this contract exceeds that of the NFL, the NBA has a chance to become the largest professional sports league in the United States.

The negotiations were also quite smooth, and he was even confident that the amount of the new contract would reach more than 600 billion US dollars.

But unfortunately, Nike teamed up with nearly [-] teams to ruin it all.

When he received these calls, his hands were shaking and his heart was cold.

At this moment, he has the heart to eat Nike.

But he knows that this is an opportunity to turn the situation around. I don't know how ridiculous the expressions of those team owners will be when they hear the news that the broadcaster has shelved the negotiations?
He has just notified that the league will hold another board meeting on the 12th.

The league has already formulated rules to restrict defense, and the board's agenda this time is to finalize this matter and then implement it.

"Let's announce the news of the board of directors on the official website, and let those players understand the progress of the matter." He finally ordered the staff.

It didn't take long for the entire league to know the news. As long as the board of directors approves it, the restricted defensive rules will be implemented soon.

"Awesome, our spring is coming!"

After getting the news, a large number of outside players were extremely happy. As long as this rule is implemented, they can ignore those ugly defenses and shoot whatever they want.
