Chapter 148 Auckland

Yang Shuai's performance in the Olympics has made many teams more aware of his strength, so many teams are chasing him. However, in the entire free market, Yang Shuai cannot be regarded as a high-ranking figure (Kuaidaozhan txt

The American media didn't notice, but the Chinese media did. As the most watched star in China recently, Yang Shuai's every move was magnified by the domestic media, and his schedule was naturally followed.

Therefore, the news of Yang Shuai's appearance in Auckland was immediately reported by the domestic media. As for the reason why Yang Shuai came to Auckland, everyone can obviously guess it.

At this time, Yang Shuai will definitely not travel to Auckland. Thinking that Auckland has an NBA team, the Golden State Warriors, and the Warriors are one of the teams that are most interested in Yang Shuai, the purpose of Yang Shuai's trip

It's about to come out.

Oakland, California, located on the west coast of the United States, has an obvious coastal environment and many idyllic islands suitable for relaxing tours. However, Yang Shuai did not come here for tourism. As the outside world speculated, after some consideration, Yang Shuai

I plan to be the first to contact the Warriors.

There are many teams that are interested in Yang Shuai, but Yang Shuai needs to choose a team that can give him a wider space. There are some teams that Yang Shuai excludes in the first place.

For example, the Rockets already have Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady, and they just acquired Artest. Now they can't figure out who will start between Battier and Artest. Where will Yang Shuai go?

Even if Yang Shuai is the starter, after he actually goes to the Rockets, with Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady here, how high can Yang Shuai's status be? So even though Yao Ming personally called, Yang Shuai didn't consider the Rockets at all, not at all.

Passed the Lakers? Stop kidding.

The Hornets were the first team to contact Yang Shuai. Yang Shuai has considered it. The young Hornets do look very promising. They became the biggest dark horse in the league last season. But now there is news that the Hornets are about to sign a deal with James-

Posey reached an agreement. Under Yang Shuai's arrangement, the Warriors were the first team to contact, followed by the Hornets.

The Warriors in California are the closest team to Beijing among Yang Shuai's intended teams, so he chose this as his first stop.

Among these teams, the Warriors are the one that handsome young man Yang is more satisfied with. After Baron Davis left, the team no longer has a real leader and has gradually become a civilian team (the latest chapter of Eavesdropping).

Stephen Jackson is the team's biggest star, but the Warriors have made it clear that if Yang Shuai joins the team and can start, Jackson will adjust to shooting guard.

Of course, what interested Yang Shuai was the coach of the Warriors, Nelson, known as the mad scientist.

Yang Shuai knows that Nelson is a coach who likes to use forwards. He likes the coach to have this tradition, which will mean that he will have more opportunities in the team. At the same time, the youth of this team also impressed Yang Shuai.

Another very important point is that Yang Shuai felt that the Warriors were sincere enough. From the moment Yang Shuai became a free agent, the Warriors expressed interest in him, and this interest continued until the end of the Olympics. During this period, almost

Every week, Warriors general manager Chris Mullin would call Jim O'Neal two or three times, asking Jim to tell Yang Shuai how much he appreciated Yang Shuai. Even during the Beijing Olympics, Chris Mullin even made a special trip

Traveled to Beijing to watch Yang Shuai's game.

From the beginning when there were only two or three teams pursuing Yang Shuai, to so many teams joining later, the Warriors have maintained the same attitude. Chris Mullin also admitted that they had a chance to get Corey Maggette.

But he hopes that Yang Shuai can join the team.

Jim O'Neal also strongly agrees with Yang Shuai joining the Golden State Warriors. As the heart of the "San Francisco-Oakland" area, the sixth largest metropolitan area in the United States, it has a vast player market and is very suitable for Yang Shuai's development.

Due to various reasons, Yang Shuai's trip to Auckland is scheduled. He will meet with Warriors general manager Chris Mullin and head coach Don Nelson to decide whether to stay with the team.

"Hey, Yang, Jim, I've been waiting for you for two months!" Chris Mullin's first words after meeting made Yang Shuai smile. He shrugged and said, "Sorry, Mr. Chris.

, I should have come to interview you earlier."

Chris Mullin smiled and shook his head and said: "No! Yang, you came at the right time! What I want is not that you come early or late, but that you can stay after you come.

In this city.”

Yang Shuai smiled, but did not answer the question directly, and handed over the situation to Jim O'Neal. Chris Mullin began to reiterate the sincerity of the Warriors, emphasizing that as long as Yang Shuai comes to the Warriors, he will definitely have a place in the starting lineup.

Chris Mullin has reiterated these things many times before, so Yang Shuai is not very interested. The purpose of their coming to Auckland is partly because Jim O'Neal needs to discuss the contract with Chris Mullin in person.

, On the other hand, Yang Shuai hopes that he can get in touch with Nelson and understand that the head coach's thoughts are very important, because when he gets on the court, he plays under the head coach, not the general manager.

After Chris Mullin talked for about three or four minutes, Donald Arvid Nelson appeared, so Jim O'Neal and Chris Mullin continued to chat, while Yang Shuai and Nelson went to another place.

"Yang, I know you! A rebellious player." Nelson's first sentence was completely different from Chris Mullin, but it also made Yang Shuai laugh.

"Coach Donald, I also know you are a crazy coach!" Yang Shuai stared at Old Nelson's face and said with a smile. He knew that this was a completely different coach from Doc Rivers, both in age and style.

"A crazy coach, haha, yes, but do you know what this crazy coach means? I am a completely different coach from Doc Rivers. I like my players to have comprehensive offensive skills.

In particular, small forwards not only need to have strong personal attacks, but also need to have the ability to organize offense."

Yang Shuai had a smile on his face and motioned for Old Nelson to continue speaking. He wanted to know what Old Nelson wanted to say.

"Chris said that he admires the speed of your progress and believes that you will become an important member of the Warriors in the future. However, I don't see what I need in you - excellent offense and excellent organization.

Defense is not what I need, of course, your outside shooting ability looks very good (read the full text of Infinite Bloody Evolution)."

Hearing Nelson say this, Yang Shuai's face no longer smiled. He said lightly: "It seems that Duo is not suitable for this team."

Although Yang Shuai did not get angry directly, there was a faint flash of anger in his eyes. Is this the so-called sincerity of the Warriors? On the one hand, the general manager promised that he would be reused in the team and there would be no problem with the starting lineup. On the other hand, the head coach

And directly told him, in my opinion, your ability is not enough. Join? Joining is a ghost. The head coach doesn't trust your ability, how can you gain a foothold in a team?

"Hey, little guy from China, in my imagination, you shouldn't react like this. You should stand up and leave angrily, and then say, 'Old guy, wait for me in the stadium.

Beat your team'."

After hearing what Old Nelson said, Yang Shuai actually stood up, curled his lips and said, "You're right, that's what I want to say next."

"Haha! Very good, little guy, don't be angry. The answer just now was just a joke. Aren't you interested in hearing my true physiognomy?" Old Nelson shouted with a smile.

Yang Shuai did not sit down again, but he did not turn around and leave directly. He suddenly became interested in what Nelson was about to say.

"I have seen your performance when you first entered the league and later, even including the Olympic Games you just ended, and I was surprised by such a significant improvement. I think you are a magical young man, and I also think you are an interesting person.

A young man, a young man worthy of being brought into the team. I know you have achieved good results under a defensive coach, but I also want to see how you will perform under an offensive coach.

?Transforming a player who is good at defense into a player who is good at offense, little guy, how do you think the outside world will evaluate me?"

Looking at the smile on Old Nelson's face, Yang Shuai suddenly remembered the nickname of the coach in front of him, Mad Scientist. He sat down opposite Old Nelson again, then shrugged and said: "This reason sounds good, but,

That’s hard to believe.”

Old Nelson smiled and said: "Chris very much hopes that you will join. I also have the same idea. Moreover, even if your transformation is unsuccessful, it does not seem to have much impact on me (read the full text of Qihuo Tianxia)."

Yang Shuai nodded. He believed this statement. Not only did he believe it, he also accepted it. At this time, he decided to stay and stay with the Warriors.

Will other coaches regard him as the focus of offense? Yang Shuai has thought about it. With the offensive ability he has just shown now, coaches of other teams are unlikely to regard him as an attacker unless he completes the absolute ability in space.

In most tasks, his offensive strength reaches the level of the league's top players. But the coach in front of him may. Yang Shuai believes in the plan mentioned by Nelson. The opponent may really use him as an attacker after he shows some offensive abilities.

.

Staring at Old Nelson's still smiling face, Yang Shuai said with a smile: "Coach Donald, I am tempted by the plan you just mentioned. When other people in the league discovered that a guy who was originally only good at defense suddenly became a good at defense.

The offensive player, no, maybe I should say, becomes an all-around player, and they will be very surprised. Give me a season, and I will give you a first-class scorer. Give me a few seasons, and I will give you a championship!"

Looking at Yang Shuai's face with a confident smile, Old Nelson was stunned, but soon he laughed. "Little guy, deal, I'm starting to be interested in this too. I want to see you after one season."

You are the first young man who dared to boast that he wanted to win the championship when he came into contact with me. This sounds very good."

"It's not about boasting, it's about confidence!" Yang Shuai shook his head and said.

"Haha!" Old Nelson laughed. He found that he was becoming more and more interested in Yang Shuai, "a very unique little guy."

Saying goodbye to Chris Lay and Nelson, Yang Shuai turned to Jim O'Neal and said, "Jim, how's the contract going?"

"Fortunately, their conditions are very good. Is there any problem, Yang?" Jim O'Neill asked.

Yang Shuai shook his head and said: "No problem, Jim, we don't need to go anywhere else. I have decided that I will start here next season, Auckland!"
