Yang Yi: When we were doing NBA reports on the front line, we always had a habit of only reading English reports. Because after it was translated into Chinese, he didn’t know which company, especially in the era of self-media, didn’t know which company had translated it into what. When you look at the NBA, you still have to believe the articles written by the American reporters closest to them in the NBA world. Why does everyone always see Sham breaking the news? He's right over there.

Du Meng, the new boss of the Mavericks, doesn’t understand sports at all. He doesn’t care about this team. It’s a general manager responsibility system. Their industry has grown so big. You, the son-in-law of the Sands Group, are just a small piece of the Mavericks. He just listens to Nico when it comes to the Lone Ranger, you report to me. He didn't even know how popular Doncic was in Dallas. He later came to his senses - so many people liked this kid. So Nico reported to him, and he listened to whatever was reported.

But it’s over in the end, so I’ll cure you, right? Then this responsibility is yours, because I am the big boss and I don’t understand the details, so I have to leave it to you. Regarding this actual situation, you must listen to what American reporters say and read what they write. If you don't listen, just listen to the big head sitting in the sauna room talking nonsense.

If you are willing to believe that I can make it up, I will make it up right here - why did Nico trade Doncic to the Lakers? The Lakers are about to sell the team. For example, it could have been sold for 5 billion. If you give him a superstar who can play for 10 years, he will sell the Lakers for 10 billion! The Lakers sold for 10 billion, and I don’t have much of the 10 billion. Do you want me to raise 10% more? Nico got a kickback from the Lakers! Isn't this simpler? Isn’t this all nonsense? Right? Sounds reasonable though.
