NBA: Being criticized for half a year at the beginning

On June 28, the labor and management sat together again for negotiations.

This was the last negotiation, and it can also be said to be the day to sign the final labor-management agreement.

Tang Yu, as the alliance's employer representative, also went to New York to participate in the negotiations.

After two hours of final negotiations, the labor and management finally reached a final agreement and signed a new labor-management agreement together.

After the two parties signed the labor-management agreement, the league president Stern said: "We want to thank Mr. Tang Yu for his contribution to this labor-management negotiation. It was he who allowed us to sit together and quickly solve the problem. Let us thank him for his efforts with applause!"

The representatives of both sides of the labor-management negotiation stood up and applauded Tang Yu, and the applause lasted for a long time.

At Stern's signal, Tang Yu stood up and must have said a few words.

After a light cough, the applause gradually died down. "Every basketball player should make the best possible contribution to this league. We are thriving on a high-speed runway. David and Michael are the ones who brought this sport to the world, and all I do is to ensure that the train can continue to move forward smoothly."

Tang Yu looked around and continued, "What we have to do next is to prepare for the new season and present better games to the fans."

There was another round of applause from the audience.

After that, Stern announced that the labor-management agreement was officially over.

Tang Yu left the scene surrounded by the crowd. His private plane had been waiting for a long time.

After boarding the plane, Tang Yu received a call from Xiao Hua. Xiao Hua first congratulated Tang Yu on his perfect handling of this incident, and then told him some things about the new season before hanging up the phone.

Tang Yu leaned back in his seat and took a long breath. This matter was finally resolved satisfactorily.

After returning to Houston, Tang Yu immediately saw an official announcement about the revision of the league rules.

[The league will ban the implementation of the elevator door tactic starting next season! 】

The shorter the news, the bigger the event. It is finally time for the elevator door tactics to be banned.

Tang Yu had expected this rule change a long time ago, and it was not a big deal. He could accept it with peace of mind.

Sitting in the study, he sighed, picked up the phone and dialed a number.

Soon the call was connected, and a happy voice came from the other end.

"Coach, I was just about to call you, but I didn't expect you to call first."

"Come on Kevin, you are celebrating, I know you put a lot of pressure on the Thunder management. This is what you deserve. After the celebration, I hope you will return to the team before August 1st."

Durant smiled and said, "Don't worry, coach, I will return to Houston on time to participate in your rookie training camp. I have successfully registered, right?"

"Haha, yes. I think you will look forward to this training camp!"

"Then we will see you then, coach. I can't wait for your new tricks!"

July 1 Free agent market opens

With the opening of free agents, all teams in the league are busy. Since there are not as many big-name players this summer as last summer, all teams can only choose to patch up.

The Rockets first strengthened the team. The surgical master Thomas Carter, the beautiful team doctor Chelsea Ryan and the top trainer Aaron Nelson were all recruited by the Rockets.

Sam Hinkie's offer to the three was something they couldn't refuse. While all the teams were still investigating the players, the Rockets had already used the "stealing home" tactic to attack the rear of the Suns and Warriors.

The management of the Suns and Warriors protested against the Rockets' inhumane behavior, but there was nothing they could do, because the Rockets were rich and willful!

Tang Yu met with the three new members at the Houston Rockets training center, including the former chief team doctor Thomas Clanton.

The two Thomases were old acquaintances, so they had to exchange pleasantries when they met. After they sat down, Tang Yu walked into the meeting room.

"Welcome our new partners, our team seems to have become even stronger!"

After the three shook hands and hugged Tang Yu, Tang Yu motioned for everyone to take their seats.

"I have decided to provide the Hermann Medical Center with an annual R&D fund of 20 million dollars, which will be used for equipment purchases and other expenses. Dr. Carter and Dr. Ryan can join the Hermann Medical Center to continue your research career!

You three can also serve the Rockets' home and away games by taking turns to rest, and you can devote your spare time to your own team research."

Tang Yu's words shocked the three people, especially Thomas Clanton. He originally thought that Tang Yu would terminate his contract with him after inviting two newcomers, but he didn't expect Tang Yu to do so, and even increased his investment.

The three people thanked Tang Yu for his generosity, butThe money was not taken for nothing, Tang Yu immediately gave the two newcomers another difficult question.

"Three doctors, what do you think of Greg Oden's injury?" Tang Yu said after scanning the three people.

The three looked at each other, and finally Thomas Carter said: "I have studied Greg's case. His injury is related to his right leg being 2 cm shorter than his left leg, but it is not big.

He had hip surgery when he was a child, and the muscles on one side of his hip atrophied. Long-term uneven force caused him to suffer "losses" in fierce confrontations. Joint movements can cause sports injuries in other parts of the body. His bilateral hip muscles are asymmetrical, and bilateral waist muscles are asymmetrical."

Tang Yu didn't quite understand what Carter said, so he could only ask: "If he can come to Houston, are you confident that you can cure this big man?"

Clanton and Ryan both looked at Dr. Carter, while Carter looked at his old partner Nelson, who nodded slightly.

Carter then said: "We not only need to make Greg better through treatment, but also need to customize more systematic training and competition for him, which is the key.

Dr. Ryan's physical therapy is also crucial. Dr. Clanton and I will do our best. I believe there will be no problem!"

This is the top authority, the person standing at the top of the pyramid, and the Portland veterinarian is completely different.

Tang Yu said happily: "Okay, I will try my best to complete the signing, but before that I hope you can sort out the injuries of the players in our team again.

For example, Yao Ming and T-MAC are old patients. Of course, Mr. Nelson also needs to worry about our training plan. I will send you a training focus for the new season later, and the specific plan will be made by you!"

The players in the front are working hard, and the trainers, team doctors, coaching team and security in the back have to keep up. The whole team is like a machine.

Behind the 15 players, there are hundreds of people working hard for their success.

Just like after the team won the championship, you can’t imagine how many championship rings Tang Yu made, including one for each of the sweepers in the stadium!
