Chapter 808

"I think NBA refuses to admit high school students to the league. It's definitely helping NCAA, a vicious force. Yes, NCAA is a vampire in my opinion. They exploit the value of college players, but they don't provide them with a penny's salary, and they don't provide them with a guarantee for the future." At the press conference, Oden, the pioneer leader, said angrily.

Once upon a time, Oden was also quite afraid. He suffered a lot of injuries in college. What did these injuries do for him? Nothing in exchange

If it wasn't for Richard, now Oden would have been almost dead.

Now two top players are injured, which makes Oden attack the NBA system.

Not only Oden, this time many stars have expressed their attitude, they hope that the league can release the restrictions on players to participate in the draft.

In fact, Richard didn't feel strange about the incident. Under normal circumstances, NBA had this incident.

Williams, the No. 1 pick in 2019, also suffered injuries in NCAA competition, which led to criticism from koshins and others, hoping that the league would change the draft system.

Let alone, the league has really let go of the news that it will consider revising the draft system in recent years.

The current incident is only a little ahead of schedule.

Now Richard doesn't know what Xiao Hua's attitude is. He pretends to be deaf and dumb? Or are you going to start to modify the system as usual?

NCAA is a non-commercial alliance, but it is more inhumane and cruel than commercial alliance.

At least in a business league like the NBA, players can still earn salaries. Even if they get hurt, they will have a place in the next half of their lives.

Even if it is fully reimbursed during the duration of the contract, it will not be less than one point.

But I can't do it in NCAA. I don't have a dime of salary. If I get reimbursed completely, my life will be over

Expect these players to study hard, then graduate like a normal person and go to work? It's possible, but it's very unlikely.

It is precisely because of this cruel and inhumane system that many old American media or film and television dramas are black NCAA.

For example, the famous American drama "players", in which the main character sued NCAA.

In particular, the conversation between the protagonist and the NCAA executives thoroughly exposed the darkness of NCAA.

……

In mid January, the Clippers had an away game against the Knicks.

Before the two teams to fight, to be exact, big ben to small Si big fight, caused a lot of trouble.

It's strange that Richard didn't hear any boos from Knicks fans after leading the team to the arena in the Knicks home game

More cheers.

In this game, Thompson didn't play well, Anthony broke out, scored 42 points in the whole game, and finally led the Knicks to win the game.

It's normal to lose the game. Richard certainly didn't care too much.

But after the game, Richard received Xiao Hua's call and wanted to talk to Richard tonight.

……

Richard frowned, and without accident, Xiao Hua should be thinking of talking about the draft system with himself.

Depending on the situation, Xiao Hua also has the idea of changing the draft system.

……

That night, Richard went to NBA headquarters by car.

Xiao Hua and Tan Huimin, vice president, were all there. After Richard entered Xiao Hua's office, he took a chair and sat down.

Seeing Richard coming, Tan Huimin obviously didn't get the notice in advance. At the moment, he was confused. He didn't expect that Richard would appear in Xiao Hua's office at this time.

"Li, you are here at last."

"What do you think of the recent NCAA? There are now at least 20 players calling for a change in the draft system

"It's certainly not all. I feel that at least half of the players want the League to change the draft system." Xiao Hua said sadly to Richard.

Richard was happy. Xiao Hua, an old boy, had a good acting skill.

He really doesn't believe Xiao Hua is worried about it now. Xiao Hua's heart is probably happy now.

"Adam, we are so familiar with each other. Don't put on such an expression. What can I do for you?" Said Richard with a smile.

Hearing this, Xiao Hua's expression immediately became normal, with a smile on the corner of his eyes.

"Well, Li, I'm going to change the draft system in the past two years. Do you think there will be any bad consequences as long as the players' draft qualifications are changed?"

"I can't see it clearly at the moment. I need you to help me with my advice." Xiao Hua asked.

Tan Huimin, vice president of the alliance, blinked and was shocked by the relationship between Xiao Hua and Richard.He didn't know before that Richard had such a good relationship with Xiao Hua. How could Xiao Hua even let Richard make up his mind about such a thing?

It's no wonder that Xiao Hua only gave such a punishment plan when Big Ben played small. I'm afraid these two people wear a pair of pants.

"What are the bad consequences? The only bad consequence I can think of is that NCAA will say that you are going to kill the donkey... " Richard reclined on the sofa relaxed and said with a smile.

At the beginning, stern restricted senior high school players to enter the league, giving the reason that senior high school players are too young to lose themselves in the professional league

The real reason is that Stern needs NCAA to help them incubate some popular new players, let them enter the league with halo, and convert some NCAA fans to pay attention to the NBA.

And NCAA can also get some benefits from this measure. It can get more super high school students, attract more fans and sponsors to pay attention to NCAA, and get more profits.

For example, the number one fever in 2019, or the fat tiger Williams, the only candidate for number one, can generate hundreds of millions of dollars for NCAA alone!

So stern banned high school students from taking part in the draft at the beginning, which was to maximize the benefits of partnership with NCAA and fully tap the value of a player.

NBA can get more fans from this cooperation, NCAA can earn more dollars, which is a mutually beneficial cooperation.

But with the rapid development of NBA, the situation has changed.

NBA fans in the United States have stabilized and do not need to drain from NCAA.

In this case, there is no need for this cooperation to continue.

If the cooperation ends, the fans of NBA will not be affected, and some popular super high school students can enter the League directly, which is good for NBA, which is why Xiao Hua wants to change the draft system.

Of course, the more important reason is that Xiao Hua is just at the top and needs the support of the whole league. At present, nearly half of the players in the whole league feel that the League should change the draft system. If he satisfies the wishes of these players, he will certainly get the good feeling and support of these players.

Richard is sure to guess Xiao Hua's idea, but now Xiao Hua can't get away with it

Once the draft system is changed, NCAA will not be affected too much, but the influence is always there. It's strange that people can be happy.

At the beginning, we worked together for mutual benefit. Now the NBA's interests have been won, and we have begun to get rid of the burden

"Tell me, Adam, what do I need to do?"

"First of all, I won't do anything that's too shameful. After all, I have a big child now. I need to pay attention to the influence." Richard asked.

Xiao Hua said with a smile, "I can't seem to hide anything from you."

"I don't need you this time. I wonder if you can make the players in the League louder and create a situation where we have to change the draft system."

"It's better to make a big move and threaten the league as much as possible. For example, if our management committee doesn't change the system, they will strike and stop playing..."

"You can rest assured that our management committee will never settle accounts after autumn." Xiao Hua said with a grin.

Richard opened his eyes and was silenced by Xiao Hua.

He knows that Xiao Hua is shameless, and there is no lower limit to do things, but he doesn't know that he can be shameless to this extent

I want to end the cooperation with NCAA, but I don't want to bear the stigma. It's really appropriate to use that Chinese saying to describe it.

It's shameless to want to be both a BZ and a memorial archway.
