After a long silence, Davidson frowned and spoke at Old Jackman.

"Mr. Jackman, Bartel's situation has never happened in the league before. Why don't you ask President Stern to ask the league to change the rules?" Davidson thought for a long time and finally came up with a more reliable suggestion.

As a second round pick, Bartel only signed a contract for two years, but ended up being the superstar level, which has never happened in NBA history.

The second round pick, a contract of less than two years, and a superstar performance in the first two years of the rookie. Players who meet these three conditions have never appeared at all...

In this special situation, Davidson felt that it was necessary for the league to change some rules to allow the king to keep Bartle.

After all, the player he had finally selected was taken away after two years of use, which was really unfair to the King.

Old Jackman nodded. Now they can only negotiate with the league according to Davidson's advice.

If the alliance is willing to change the rules, their king's problem will be solved.

But if the alliance rejects their suggestion, the king will be furious...

...

After returning to his residence, Davidson went to talk about this with his father.

After hearing this, my father frowned, and he had never thought about it much.

The main reason is that the situation is too special.

"This is troublesome. Based on my understanding of Stern, the king cannot do this!" said the father with a bitter expression.

"Well, why can't it be done?" Davidson asked curiously.

"You still underestimate the commercial value of Bartel. There has been no such interagency-level players in the league for many years."

"Although Grant Hill is good, I'm not optimistic about his development."

"Even if Stern is optimistic about Hill, he will definitely not be able to put all the eggs in Hill's basket."

"Batter will at least become a strong rival in the league's signature character in the future. The King is just a team with no sense of existence. The market is not big and the boss has no financial resources."

"If I were Stern, in order to maximize the potential of Bartel, I would definitely not let him stay in a team like the Kings. Now the Knicks, Lakers and even Green Kai are gradually entering a trough. You should understand what I mean," the father said, analyzing.

Davidson was stunned when he heard this. He knew that his father had made no mistake in his analysis.

If I were Stern, I would definitely sacrifice the Kings for the sake of the overall interests of the league...

If Bartel had a team like the Lakers or the Knicks, it would have to create much more value than the Kings.

Just now, the teams in the league's big football market, except for the Bulls, have risen again, and the other teams are now entering a trough.

These teams need a dazzling star to boost the market.

Davidson became more and more distressed the more he thought about it. If he were Stern, for the sake of the overall interests of the league, he would definitely not have thought about letting Bartel stay in the king.

From this point of view, Old Jackman suggested to the league to change the rules, and this matter is at least 80% likely to not work.

Sure enough, Davidson got the latest news from Petri that day. The league decisively rejected Old Jackman's proposal, and Stern personally replied to Old Jackman.

Stern's reply was that at least he had to wait until the next salary negotiation before he could bring this suggestion to the table.

This is basically just telling Old Jackman in a blunt way that this is just egg farts - no way.

Because the last wage negotiation was in 1994, and the season for the execution of this wage negotiation was this 95-96 season...

Only when we wait for the next wage negotiation will we know how long we will have to wait!

Davidson felt very uncomfortable, and this was a bit serious.

As my father predicted, Stern really had no intention of becoming the king of the country.

If Stern did something wrong, it must be not. His starting point was to focus on the overall interests of the alliance.

Bartel can obviously help the league make more money, so why should he stay with the Kings...

The best example is Richmond. If Richmond plays for the Lakers, you can see if he can get the endorsement contract. That endorsement contract will probably be slim.

Neighborhood products such as jerseys may definitely be sold very hotly.

So Stern's approach is actually correct, it just depends on the different perspectives of things.

Just when Davidson was in great trouble, Peter came to Davidson with a strange look.

The Knicks in New York contacted Petrie and privately asked about the possibility of using Ewing to trade Bartel...

Davidson was stunned. Is the Knicks crazy?

He actually wanted to trade Battel with players like his team's totem history!

"It was Old Nelson who called here in person, Wilson, what do you think of this deal?" Petri asked.

Davidson was speechless. What else could he think about it? He definitely couldn't trade...

Although Ewing is not old now, his overall combat power is definitely not as good as Bartel. How could he agree to this deal?

"Wilson, I heard that old Nelson not only contacted our king, but also the Magic side. He was going to trade Ewing to Shaq." Petrie leaned into Davidson's ear and whispered.

This news surprised Davidson even more. It seemed that old Nelson really made up his mind to sell Ewing.

Don’t he think about what would happen if he did this?

He has just joined the Knicks for half a season, but he will sell the Knicks totem-like player as soon as he starts. It would be strange if he can tolerate him.

Of course, if the transaction can be really reached, the Knicks will definitely make a profit...

Whether Ewing trades O'Neal or Ewing trades Bartel, the Knicks will definitely not lose.

O'Neal and Bartel can be said to be the strongest rookie insider in the league today.

"Petry, you won't agree to someone else's deal, right?" Davidson said speechlessly.

Petri waved his hand quickly, "That's not, but do you think we should consider it? After all, it's hard for us to stay..."

"And Ewing is a very powerful combat power and can also play in the power forward position. Although he is not as good as Bartel on the offensive end, his defense and rebounds are much better than Bartel."

After listening to Pitrie, Davidson was speechless.

From Petri's point of view, they're really capable of this deal.

The Magic side is actually probably a similar idea. O'Neal's contract is about to expire. If you want to keep O'Neal, it will definitely be an astronomical contract. It's better to have a cheap Ewing.
