Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 242 Newcomers to the coaching staff

"California is still sunny in spring, and New York has begun to cool down!" Stevens had already arrived at the arena the day before the team officially assembled, and when he saw Jiang Mingliang, he said with emotion.

To some extent, the geographical differences in the United States are even greater than that of China, which is vast and rich in resources. It is still a bit unaccustomed to return to New York after staying in a place like California for 2 months.

"It's a good thing we're not in Minnesota, the temperature over there is already below zero." Jiang Mingliang joked.

Fortunately, the team only needs to pass once a season, and it is uncomfortable to think about it.

"This year is our last season as the New Jersey Nets. Show some good performance. Next season, we will go to New York in a glorious way." Looking at Stevens, Jiang Mingliang said proudly.

"I will do my best!" Stevens nodded, stretched out his hand, and held it with Jiang Mingliang.

"Now our lineup for this season is basically determined, do we need to add more?" Jiang Mingliang asked.

Now the team has players with guaranteed contracts including Lopez and Baynes at the center position, West and Yi Jianlian at the power forward position and Dreaming Green, and Leonard and Simon at the small forward position. Barnes and Barnes, the shooting guards are Fernandez, Ray Allen, and Korver. The point guard position includes Curry, Jeremy Lin, and Livingston. It can be said that they are strong and strong. The hidden danger lies in the health of the two starting players in the interior, but this is actually difficult for the management to operate. To put it simply, it is impossible for you to put a lot of capable players in this position to completely eliminate the hidden danger of injuries, and it is impossible for players with immediate combat power to be willing to be behind Lopez and West. substitute.

"That's enough. After the training camp is over, add some players with non-guaranteed contracts to make up the league's 15-man quota. These people are enough for the next season." Stevens smiled at Jiang Ming He said that he himself doesn't really like the bloated list of personnel in the team, "But this time I met a person in California, and I want to invite him to join my coaching staff."

"This is not a problem. If you think it is necessary, make an appointment to meet at any time." Jiang Mingliang said generously.

Since it was recommended by Stevens himself, naturally he himself recognized it. It is the most natural thing for a coach to form his own teaching assistant team in the NBA. Jiang Mingliang just needs to pay for it.

. . . . . . . .

Quinn Snyder, a well-known Duke, has been the main force of the team since his sophomore year. However, after graduating, he did not choose to embark on the road of professional basketball, but changed his career to become a basketball coach. He has successively served as an assistant coach for the Duke University basketball team, the Los Angeles Clippers, the Philadelphia 76ers, and the Los Angeles Lakers. , has rich coaching experience.

In the office, Stevens introduced to Jiang Mingliang the friends he met in California, who will be his good partners in the future.

"Hello, Mr. Snyder." After shaking hands briefly, the three sat down one after another.

It was him! Sneijder is definitely one of the coaches who are famous for his unique temperament. He looks exactly like Mahon in "Prison Break".

In addition to a villain's face, the level of coach Sneijder is beyond doubt. Jiang Mingliang vaguely remembers that he has led the Jazz to complete a beautiful game in the highly competitive Western Conference playoffs many times. What is even more valuable is that the lineup in his hand has limited talent. He picked it up bit by bit by himself.

With appreciation, the communication between the three was very smooth. Including salary, contract period and so on, the discussion went smoothly. The annual salary of 1.5 million US dollars is more in line with Snyder's needs. Of course, all assistant coaches in the league will include a clause in their contracts. If other NBA teams invite him to be the head coach, the team must not stop him for no reason. This is also one of the unspoken rules.

Baynes, Yi Jianlian, and Fernandez, the three players who participated in the Olympic Games, were delayed by Jiang Mingliang. In the team's training hall, the remaining 11 players all came to the training hall and started the team's first training session of the new season. class.

"Kawaii, it's a lot stronger!" Jeremy Lin slapped Leonard twice, enviously.

The change in body shape is very obvious. It seems that Leonard did not train less this summer. Facing James last season, even though Leonard has worked very hard, he still felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Especially in terms of strength and confrontation, the gap is quite obvious. This summer, one of the key points of Leonard's training is to strengthen this aspect.

In the new season, on the defensive end, there will be no George to carry the knife with him again!

Although they are all black players, Curry has a rather funny temper, and it should be easier to get along with him. But the strangeness is still there. In a group of three, in a group of five exchanges, Curry is still closer to Chasing Dream Green, Barnes, and Simmons.

It was exactly eight o'clock when Stevens and other members of the coaching staff came to the training hall, and they nodded inwardly when they saw the players gathered together. Because many of these players were brought out by Stevens, he will not belittle him because of his age, on the contrary, he will be respected very much.

"Everyone is in good shape now, Kawhi, Stephen and Lin look a lot stronger, very good." Stevens shouted, "Stephen, Drummond, Jonathan, Harrison, get used to it in New York ?”

Everyone nodded in response, and Stevens continued, "Our new players are all very strong, and everyone will realize it soon. This is Coach Snyder next to me. He will be in charge of our team next. The defensive training of the team, he has his own set of training methods."

"Hello everyone, Quinn Sneijder, I am very happy to join the Nets. I hope we can work together to make further progress in the new season." Sneijder said politely to everyone, and got a positive response.

"The new season will start soon. This season our preseason will go to Spain, and we can have another exotic journey. But before that, we have to start two weeks of training. This training, You should know what it means to us."

It means the competition for the main position~ Although Stevens has his own initial plan for the main lineup, many things are never static. The performance in training will determine everyone's playing time in the new season.

"Okay, everyone can start training now, mainly training with the ball, and adjust your state first."

Two courts, four baskets, and soon the players made their own allocations. According to the gangs they gathered to chat, Curry, Green, Simmons, and Barnes four newcomers occupied one basket.

Soon, Korver walked over with the ball, raised his hand and made a three-pointer, joining in.

"Shua!" Curry's three-pointer was more beautiful than Korver's. First, there was a series of butterflies piercing flowers, followed by lightning-fast shots. The speed was much faster than Korver's.

The two top shooters tacitly soared for three points, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.
