Chapter 269: One ring after another, who is the final winner?

Lu Yuan paced back and forth in the office. He was overwhelmed now. He was helpless about the funding gap of 340 million. He didn't know how to help Fan Xi. In his view, except for accepting Ballmer's suggestion, there was no other way. No one would give you so much money for no reason. This is definitely not a small amount.

After thinking about it, he was helpless. He lay on his office chair and decided to persuade Fan Xi well next. He felt it was possible to let Ballmer pay a little more. He could value it at 1.3 billion, so he could value it at 1.35 billion. In any case, Lu Yuan hoped to maximize Fan Xi's interests. Although everything that happened currently was not his job content, he was just Fan Xi's agent.

However, he knew very clearly that Fan Xi was a very, very good person. This is also why he would serve Fan Xi so loyally without return.

After coming out of Jenner's house, Fan Xi was refreshed. After a deep kiss goodbye with Jenner, Fan Xi drove to the training hall to train actively for the upcoming highlight: the Christmas Day battle.

The funding gap was solved, and the most important and urgent thing for Boss Fan Xi was: let the Clippers rise rapidly in the City of Angels and maximize his interests.

The first step is to finish off the Lakers in the highly anticipated Christmas Day battle this year.

And at the moment Fan Xi was about to drive the car into the underground parking garage of the training hall, a shocking piece of news came from the car radio: The Lakers, Nuggets, Magic, and 76ers reached a four-party trade.

The Lakers sent out Andrew Bynum, Roberts, Ainga, plus a first-round draft pick and a second-round draft pick.

Obtained Howard, Clark, Duhon.

The Magic sent out Howard, Richardson.

Obtained Afflalo, Vucevic, Harrington, Harkless, Roberts, three first-rounds, two second-rounds.

In addition to these two trade subjects, the 76ers sent out the team star Iguodala and others, and obtained Bynum. The Nuggets obtained Iguodala, but sent out a large group of wings.

This trade undoubtedly ignited basketball public opinion.

Previously, everyone was discussing the acquisition between Fan Xi and the Clippers, but now, people have to return to basketball itself.

Because the DJ supporting the Lakers shouted crazily on the radio: "The finale! The finale! Let us celebrate the four-peat, five-peat."

He was very excited.

Fan Xi had a moment of trance. Although he didn't have much liking for Howard. However, he fully recognized Howard's deterrent power in the paint area; he was a well-deserved number one center.

Now the Lakers already have the league's number one point guard, the league's number one shooting guard, the league's number one center, plus the league's top five power forward, which is... the small forward position is a bit weak, but... when the other four are so powerful, what does it matter if this position is a bit weak?

Hoo!

Fan Xi exhaled a turbid breath forcefully.

The pressure was unprecedented.

But this didn't curb his determination to win. He still firmly believed that he could finish off the Lakers on Christmas night and announce the real change of dynasty.

Fan Xi came to the training hall. He had just changed his clothes when he found Blake Griffin had arrived in the locker room.

Griffin looked very excited. When he saw Fan Xi, he rushed over and hugged Fan Xi: "Hey, Boss Jack, I have made all preparations to play for you. I must stay here and fight with you."

Griffin swept away his previous determination to leave the Clippers, and now he suddenly didn't want to leave and wanted to sing a song of loyalty to Fan Xi.

Fan Xi frowned, thinking, I don't have such great charm.

Is there really such a big difference between working for Sterling and working for me?

Besides, I haven't officially taken over the Clippers yet. The news on TV is now overwhelming, saying that Ballmer will become the largest shareholder.

Fan Xi was suspicious, but didn't say much, just smiled and encouraged Griffin, hoping he would continue to work hard.

Subsequently, when Fan Xi went to the court to practice shooting, he received a call from Lamar Odom.

Odom said to Fan Xi in a very sad tone: "Jack, please, can you help me watch Khloe?"

Fan Xi didn't react.

"I was traded. A text message last night," Lamar Odom said: "I am about to leave Los Angeles."

Odom was traded?

Fan Xi was stunned. In his impression, Odom had been tightly bound to the Lakers since 2004, accompanying Kobe Bryant and the Lakers through the difficult years from 04-08, and helping the Lakers win a three-peat from 09-11. In any case, from all aspects, the Lakers should provide for his old age instead of trading him away when his ability declined and he was full of trouble.

Fan Xi felt that doing so was somewhat unkind. After all, Odom's career was visibly not long.

This might be the fate of most NBA players.

The Lakers got Howard, their luxury tax exploded, and they had to clear out Lamar Odom.

People must master their own destiny. Fan Xi was very glad that he could become the owner of the Clippers. When he signed that agreement with Sterling, he never dreamed that Sterling would have such an extremely incorrect thing as racial discrimination.

Of course, in the final analysis, I still have to thank the Lakers, thank Jean. If it weren't for them stirring up the wind and rain in public opinion, Sterling's inside story wouldn't have been exposed so early, and the bad effects wouldn't have been so significant. According to the historical order, it should be 2014. Jean advanced history with her own strength.

If Fan Xi knew the inside story, he would have to write a thank-you letter to Jean Bas.

As for whether Jean Bas accepts the award, it is unknown.

"Then what are your plans now?" Fan Xi asked Odom.

Odom said: "I don't know either. I feel like life is gray..."

"No, you have to be brave. Only you can save yourself. You have to make yourself better. Lamar, you haven't reached the point of exhaustion yet. You can still become an elite player, as long as you are willing!" Fan Xi persuaded Odom.

He and Odom had a good relationship. Odom was the first person to extend a helping hand to Fan Xi. At that time, Fan Xi was still a nobody. Odom took him to live in his house, and thus got to know the Kardashian family and Kendall Jenner.

Fan Xi hoped Odom would cheer up.

However, Odom had heard too many such words. If a person wants to change, it must start from his own heart.

He was silent on the other end of the phone.

After a while, he grabbed Fan Xi like a straw, asking Fan Xi to help him watch Khloe.

How could Fan Xi help him watch Khloe? A woman who has changed her heart is sand that cannot be grasped, not to mention this is someone else's family affair. How could Fan Xi manage it?

At the end of the call, Fan Xi asked Odom: "Where were you traded to?"

"Dallas."

Dallas???

Fan Xi was stunned.

The Dallas Mavericks used an 8.9 million US dollar trade exception plus a first-round draft pick to exchange Lamar Odom and two second-round picks from the Lakers.

This trade is equivalent to exchanging draft picks for draft picks. The Los Angeles Lakers therefore obtained an 8.9 million US dollar trade exception, which can provide good space for their future transactions.

The Mavericks signing Odom, to some extent, is Mark Cuban clearing the way for trading Novitski.

When Fan Xi warmed up and practiced three-pointers, he finally connected all the clues.

He understood why the Mavericks and Lakers had this trade, he understood why Odom took the initiative to call himself to ask for his help, and he understood even more why Griffin, who had always wanted to leave Los Angeles, suddenly changed and said he wanted to play for himself.

One ring after another.

The Lakers now think they are the biggest winner.

Griffin also thinks he is the biggest winner.

Because the Lakers traded a decadent Odom and exchanged for space.

Because Griffin's love rival left the City of Angels, he can double-fly with his angel Khloe Kardashian, and no one will be a light bulb anymore.

Swish!

When Fan Xi threw in the first three-pointer, he suddenly smiled after seeing the whole picture.

He even felt a bit absurd, because these things seemed extremely favorable to the Lakers and Griffin.

But as long as he drops a chess piece next, he will kill the Lakers and Griffin.

That is... trade Griffin to the Dallas Mavericks. Exchange for Novitski.

The arrival of the German Tank will upgrade the civil war in the City of Angels to the Finals level. Although the book strength is still not as good as the Lakers, Fan Xi has great confidence in causing embarrassment to the Lakers.

And Griffin was only in the same city as Lamar Odom before, and next he will be teammates with Lamar Odom, living under the same roof.

Swish!

Fan Xi hit the second three-pointer.

Then the third one.

His feel was very good.

Fan Xi's open three-pointer feel comes from Reggie Miller: the number one three-point shooter in history. (2011)

Boom!

When Fan Xi was shooting, Griffin rushed into the basket and completed a crazy dunk.

"Jack, look! When we each exert our power, who in the league dares to be our enemy?"

Griffin said ambitiously: "Los Angeles is our world."

Fan Xi smiled and said to him: "Do you know? Dwight Howard just joined the Lakers."

Huh?

Griffin's expression was obviously stunned.

He has a nickname called "White Beast." Now that the real "Black Beast" has come to Los Angeles, he is obviously a bit timid. This is his subconscious performance.

These all fell into Fan Xi's eyes.

"He came, but it won't change anything. I'll still dunk on him!"

Griffin said loudly.

Fan Xi raised his eyebrows at him and said: "On Christmas night, I will pass the ball to you."
