I’m Really Playing Basketball

"Boy Chen, are you sure the person you just talked about is me?!"

Looking at Jordan's stunned eyes at this time, Chen Xiao picked up the cigar that Jordan put down just now from the side and threw it into Jordan's hand and said with a smile: "Yes, Manager."

Manager? !

Jordan looked at the cigar in his hand and then at the smiling Chen Xiao in front of him. His heart was slightly shocked.

Chen Xiao called him Manager just now. In English, this is a very, very big word. It means boss, manager, and head coach.

If he really becomes the head coach of the Bobcats, then he will be the perfect annotator of this vocabulary!

The only manager in NBA history!

To be fair, Jordan refused when Chen Xiao proposed that he be the head coach for the first time.

Although he was confident, he felt that he still couldn't be the head coach, but now that Chen Xiao's manager called him, Jordan was really moved.

If he really succeeds in the position of head coach, he will even have one more dimension of success than Larry Bird and Jerry West, then he will really become "peerless"!

For Jordan, who is obsessed with saving face, this temptation is too great!

My heart is excited!

I, Michael Jordan, am really excited!

However, after his heartbeat, Jordan quickly calmed down.

To achieve all that he imagined, he must succeed in the position of coach, but can he succeed in the position of coach?

It would be a bit embarrassing for him if he couldn't succeed.

After all, he is the chosen son of the general manager and the number one player in the player position. His personality is the kind of perfect personality that can do everything and is good at everything. His personality is not allowed to fail .

If he is abused by everyone as a head coach, it will be very damaging to his reputation.

Moreover, the Bobcats are located in the East, where strong teams gather. There were even six teams with more than 60 wins last season.

In such a place, it is not easy for him to lead this young team with nothing but Chen Xiao to achieve good results.

Currently, among the 13 Bobcats players, only Chen Xiao and Chris Paul have NBA experience, and the other 11 are rookies.

Let's put it this way, I have never seen such a bad team in the history of the NBA.

Generally speaking, an NBA team usually only has two rookies, and there may be three or four, four or five more, and basically no more, and a situation like eleven rookies is basically a dream. Scenes that may not exist in the movie.

This is something that only Jordan, a "far-sighted" beginner general manager, can do.

Except for the 7+1 rookies in NBA history, no matter how strong a rookie is, it is impossible for him to reach his peak when he debuts. He will always be beaten for one or two seasons before he matures.

If a team has more than 10 rookies, it is basically certain that such a team will be severely beaten for several seasons.

Everyone who plays stocks knows that you can't put all your eggs in one basket. If you are all rookies, it is basically equivalent to putting your eggs in one basket.

In the past, Jordan didn't quite understand why his move shocked the entire NBA, but now he finally understands.

When he came to calculate the gains and losses of being a head coach, he knew how intimidating this Bobcat was.

After some 'calm thinking', Jordan felt that he still couldn't resist the temptation to become 'unparalleled in the world'.

He has already achieved invincibility in the world, and now he wants to become invincible in the world!

So after biting his cigar and taking a strong puff, Boss Qiao looked at Chen Xiao seriously and asked cautiously: "Boy Chen, what do you think is the probability that I will succeed as the head coach?"

"That depends on how much Michael trusts me."

"..."

Qiao Dan, who was still gritted his teeth, heard what Chen Xiao said, and seeing the confident smile on Chen Xiao's face, suddenly, all the entanglements on Qiao Dan's face disappeared.

because.

"I trust you 100%!"

"So Michael's probability of success as a head coach is also 100%."

Done!

I have to say that confidence is really contagious.

This time Chen Xiao infected Jordan with the confidence on his face.

Chen Xiao proposed that Jordan be the head coach. This was not done randomly.

Carlisle is indeed the best head coach for the Bobcats.

Carlisle can play in countless styles, and he can make good use of every player. At the same time, Carlisle also believes in young players, so Carlisle is the most suitable for a team with too many rookies.

If Carlisle can't come, then there are really not many other NBA head coaches who are suitable.

In the NBA, there are not many head coaches who can make good use of rookies.

There are even fewer coaches who can make good use of rookies and also make good use of rookies with different styles.

Under such circumstances, if you hire a random head coach, the Bobcats will most likely be in chaos next season.

This is no joke.

Rookie players are all arrogant. If they have the opportunity, they feel that they are strong and take it for granted. If they don't have the opportunity, they feel that they are not valued and their talents are not appreciated.

Unless there is a head coach who is very fair and just in the minds of the rookies and will definitely be reused as long as you are really capable, only then can you suppress the rookies' thoughts.

And is there anyone more suitable than Jordan?

As long as you have enough talent, a fringe lottery pick like Chris Paul can use the No. 4 pick.

As long as you are suitable enough, even a tenth high school student like Bynum can be selected with the ninth overall pick.

As long as you have the strength, even an LSP like Blatche who dares to tease an American policewoman would dare to pick with the 18th pick.

You know, as a black man in the United States, your life is in danger if you talk to the police. Not to mention teasing, it can be said that Blatche is the ultimate old SP who really uses his own life to prove his truth. This kind of scum is just Not even black people.

But Boss Qiao dared to choose.

Plus Jordan's status.

To be honest, if you doubt Jordan's fairness, you might as well doubt whether you are the biological child of your own parents. 1

Therefore, for a young team like the Bobcats, if there is no super strong head coach like Carlisle, it should find a super fair head coach like Jordan.

As long as the Bobcats remain in chaos next season, Chen Xiao feels that with his current strength, Paul's help, and the help of several B-level rookies on the team, he has a great chance of reaching the playoffs.

With Chen Xiao's encouragement, Jordan finally accepted the position of head coach of the Bobcats.

And when Jordan announced that he would serve as the head coach of the Bobcats, the NBA, which had been shocked by the Bobcats recently, was once again severely shocked by the Bobcats.

This time, almost everyone thought of Buckley's conspiracy theory.

"Michael Jordan didn't really recruit Wonder Boy to the Bobcats to prevent him from surpassing him in history, right?!"

To be fair, a bunch of rookie players from the Bobcats already made 'Xiao Mi' feel crazy.

Now, even the head coach of the team is a rookie, why not be so exciting!

Seriously, if Xiaomi's heart wasn't big enough, she would really be crushed by the continuous 'big news'.

To be honest, not to mention Chen Xiao's fans, even Chen Xiao's opponents in the playoffs last season were fooled by the Bobcats' actions at this time.

"Originally, I wanted to seek revenge from Boy Wonder in the playoffs next season, but now I may not have the chance."

In the Magic training hall, McGrady said to Duncan next to him.

To be fair, Chen Xiao led the Cavaliers to sweep the playoffs last season, which hurt the Magic a lot, stimulated them a lot, and promoted them a lot.

This made the entire Magic team hold their breath and want to avenge their shame.

Of course, the object of their shame will definitely not be the Cavaliers.

The object of their shame was Chen Ling.

The real revenge is to get it back from Chen Xiao.

However, what made them feel very funny was that Chen Xiao had no problem leaving the Cavaliers, but he actually went to the Bobcats.

To be honest, even if Jordan has a good draft vision, it is difficult for such a bunch of rookies to form a combat effectiveness in one season.

In this case, the Magic felt that there might be little chance of immediate revenge.

And now that Jordan is doing this, basically the Bobcats will basically have no bright future in the Eastern Conference next season.

"I still don't quite understand why Boy Wonder refused our invitation to go to Bobcats."

"Do you not understand the rejection of us, or do you not understand going to the Bobcats?"

"To Bobcats, of course!"

Judging from Jordan's series of operations, after the first player in NBA history became the general manager of the Bobcats, he really didn't know whether it was a god or a pit.

From the perspective of a Magic player, the possibility of cheating is far greater than that of God.

Because this series of operations seems so random.

Isn't such a casual operation a waste of Wonder Boy's talents?

It’s just that he’s occupying the magical boy’s trap!

By the way, this is not meant to be disrespectful to Chen Xiao. Magic players still respect Chen Xiao very much.

Regarding being eliminated by the Cavaliers last season, everyone in the Magic was tired and admired Chen Xiao very much.

But now...

"Although we don't have the goal of Wonder Boy this season, we will strive to be number one in the league this season!"

When the Magic were summarizing their failures last season, many Magic players believed that their failure to compete with the Heat for first place in the regular season was the biggest reason for their failure.

If the Heat are fourth, the Cavaliers, who are fearful of the Heat, are likely to lose to the Heat in the semifinals.

One thing after another, the Magic will probably enter the finals and win the championship.

On the other side, the Heat's summary is completely different.

The Heat feel that their failure last season was that they spent too much effort in the regular season and did not use their strongest state in the playoffs. This is Carlisle's summary.

The regular season is used as a preparation for the playoffs.

The Heat had a good record last season, but were poorly prepared for the playoffs.

I have to say that Carlisle is still very insightful.

The Heat also agree with it.

Although summarizing the results of last season, the Heat and Magic concluded two completely different results.

But for Jordan, the players from the two teams are very consistent.

"Jordan is messing around!"

Wade couldn't help but rant about his idol.

Dayao next to him also nodded after Wade finished spraying.

"Worried about Xiao Chen..."

"This kid asked for it all. If he comes to the Heat, nothing will happen. He has to listen to my advice and go to the Bobcats!"

Although the expression on Wade's face was very angry, Yao Ming could still tell whether Wade was angry or concerned.

In Cleveland, James frowned and shook his head when he saw that Jordan was going to be the head coach of the Bobcats. He couldn't understand it, couldn't understand it, really couldn't understand it.

As the team with the largest traffic this season, every move of the Bobcats attracts the attention of the entire NBA.

Of course it is the same this time.

And just when the entire league was shocked that Jordan would be the head coach of the Bobcats.

The Bobcats have signed all 11 rookies with the team before July 14.

And on July 15, the first time the free market opened, the Bobcats signed former Cavaliers player Matt Barnes.

20 million in 4 years for the full middle class.

Barnes performed very well with the Cavaliers. After the season, many teams planned to sign him, including the Cavaliers, which also offered Barnes a mini-mid-level contract.

But Barnes rejected the Cavaliers' contract extension at the first opportunity.

And he made it clear to Cavaliers general manager Paxson and head coach Mike Brown that this is not a matter of money, he wants to follow Chen Xiao.

To be honest, based on the value of Barnes, although the Bobcats' full mid-level offer is a bit high, but after the Cavaliers match the deal, there is still no problem with a first-round pick.

But since he went to the Bobcats to follow Chen Xiao, the Cavaliers did not match Barnes' contract and allowed Barnes to go to the Bobcats to find Chen Xiao.

Barnes also became the Bobcats' first pick in the free market.

After signing Barnes, the next rumored target between Jordan and the Bobcats surprised the entire NBA.

"Charlotte Bobcats offer Portland Trail Blazers power forward Zach Randolph a max contract!"

Good guy, Zach Randolph, max salary!

McGrady, Duncan and the Magic were all stunned when they paid attention to Chen Xiao, who had been miserable recently.

Why don't you mess around like this?

Because Randolph was rumored to have the same crappy defense as Randolph during the battle with Darius Myers, but the offense was frantically brushing up numbers. Not only did the numbers fail to hit him, but he was also injured last season. .

Played 47 games throughout the season.

Originally, the Trail Blazers offered him a six-year, 80 million contract extension in advance. After he rejected it, and after the injury, he wanted the contract again. However, he has been very unhappy with the Trail Blazers recently.

In any case, this is a player with a very bad reputation in the NBA.

"I bet that if Jordan messes around like this, the relationship between Wonder Boy and Jordan will definitely collapse next season!"

"The Bobcats will be finished next season!"

Although there is no prediction like his teammates whether the Bobcats will be finished next season.

But Duncan also felt that Jordan was indeed messing up.

Is Wonder Boy really over?

Duncan blinked his glazed eyes in curiosity.
