NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 22: Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills

Jordan Hill, if divided, he is invincible, but if combined, he will be gone in a year...

No, half a season to be precise.

In Jiang Chao's previous life, Jordan Hill played half a season and was traded to the Rockets by Dolan for McGrady after a serious injury...

This kind of thing can never happen to him!

Jordan Hill patted his chest: "No problem! Just choose me and that's it. There's nothing wrong with it!"

DeRozan, whose playing style is similar to that of Kobe:

"Boss, although my name is not Superstar, I am a Superstar and I am willing to stay in New York."

Jennings, a thin man with tattoos, came over dribbling the ball:

"Hey, give me the No. 8 pick and I will lead the Knicks out of the quagmire!"

Beverly:

"The Knicks need defensive players who bite like me!"

"Boss, I watched your speech. I am the only one who can restore the glory of the Knicks!!"

…

After the players found out that boss Jiang Chao had come to the stadium, they all gathered around. They were different from the media and management. They were all top talents in the world. They refused to accept anyone, and they all liked to stay on weak teams first.

Because this way they can get playing time and show their own value. Before they entered the NBA, they all felt that they were invincible. After all, they were the top players in their respective universities who swept everything.

Everyone dreams of carrying the Knicks.

Jiang Chao was surrounded by a bunch of tall, tough men, and he felt very oppressed, but he stood still and chatted with them for a while.

They are all future stars. Jiang Chao communicated with these NBA players for the first time to see if their personalities were similar to what the guys in the news and forums had guessed.

Curry, who is 1.88 meters tall, couldn't squeeze in at all. He stood on the outside and watched the other rookies and the boss chatting. He almost cried. He squatted on the ground and felt autistic.

This boss is so weird.

Loved?

He was the most confused. The day before yesterday, Knicks scout Downey Jr. contacted him and told him that it would be fine if he came later and not to tell anyone else. He thought the Knicks wanted him too, so he immediately bought a plane ticket and came over.

.

The scout even told his agent that this was what the boss wanted.

And then...his passion earned him the boss's unblinking gaze?

All the hard work he put into training all morning was in vain?

The cute god scratched his scalp and was squeezed past by a big European center next to him, which made him look even more desolate.

"Damn...I don't want to leave you here!"

Curry is also a person with a temper. Even though he is cute, he is very competitive. As one of the lottery favorites, he will not hang himself in the Knicks, but...

When he came here, not only did he and his sharpshooter idol dad like the Knicks basketball environment, but his wife also...

Eh!

I want to talk to him!

Curry transformed into a dog-licking dog in his final gesture, snatching away his future rival, the evil dog Beverley. The Warriors’ top-ranked bench press is not for nothing!

Jiang Supernatural also saw this scene. Even though he was chatting away, he was looking at the red No. 30 jersey out of the corner of his eye.

This indissoluble bond with the Knicks must be continued. He, even though he is not a nim, knows that the most regrettable thing for Knicks fans in the new century is not letting Anthony go or that Zen Master failed to become the coach.

But I missed Curry in 2009.

If you miss it, it will last a lifetime.

"Hey, Boss Jiang! You try me alone, I'm better than them all!"

Curry's words made everyone angry. Who is he looking down on?

"You little runt, go away!"

"What's so big about shooting three-pointers? Can you dunk on the spot?"

"Can you turn your back?"

"With your small body, you can only score points in college. The NBA is a world of muscular men!" DeMarre Carroll, who will be known as Shennongjia James in the future, showed off his explosive muscles.

It would be too deliberate for Jiang Chao to ignore him at this time.

"Huh? Where did this primary school student come from?"

Curry said with a black face: "I just look young, I can go into bars." (The United States requires 21 years old to enter bars and nightclubs.)

The most outrageous thing is that Downey Jr. stepped forward to explain:

"That...boss, this is Stephen Curry."

"I watched his trial training, and it was not good. He will be beaten by James in the NBA."

puff.....

The players at the scene were stunned.

Curry collapsed immediately, jumped and slammed the door, as if he had been called twice by the referee.

Other players said whether the boss understands football??? Is this okay??

There's no way to play anymore.

You say it’s unfair to compare forwards with guards, but you also compare the top three super forwards in the league with Curry??

The little emperor’s bulldozing style of play can even challenge Kobe!

If Jiang Chao hadn't been very good at chatting with them before, and some of his actions were very kind, everyone would have almost thought he was a younger version of Dolan.

Jiang Chao smiled casually. A primary school student is a primary school student. It goes without saying.

D'Antoni whispered Curry's advantages in Jiang Chao's ear while he was watching the players one-on-one:

"Boss, I think this kid is very strong. He plays fast breaks, supports, shoots, breaks through, and changes direction. He's all at NBA level!"

As deputy general manager, D'Antoni quickly adapted to his role and contributed solutions to Jiang Chao.

"Well, I understand. I'm still not satisfied. I'm going to leave now. I'll leave this place to you."

"By the way, if I have to choose a guard, I want someone like Tracy McGrady, who is too skinny to play."

D'Antoni's expression was speechless... This is too authoritarian. If he had the power to appoint personnel, he would have Curry. It is so suitable for his fast break system. It's a pity, eh.

No more talk.

D'Antoni has a sense of vicissitudes that his ambitions cannot be reused.

.......

Jiang Chao has not told anyone who he wants to choose so far. It's not that he doesn't say it, but the NBA has too many eyes and ears. You said it one second, and WoJ and others broke it the next second. Can you still believe it?

who?

And he didn't need to say it.

He knows better than anyone who is the best in this draft. In terms of achievements, Curry is first and Harden is second. In terms of personal strength, they are also ranked the same. If he is given the No. 1 pick, he will not choose Griffin.

DeRozan, for personal reasons, I really want to sign. He is also a regular in the Eastern Conference All-Stars and the last traditional shooting guard in the future era. Unfortunately, he has never proven himself in the playoffs.

So he only needs to know about it. If he ignores Curry today, he will not let Curry stand up high tomorrow.

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting!

Sure enough, in the afternoon, woj, Yahoo Sports, tnt and other Twitters sent out news, saying that Jiang Chao was not satisfied with the 6-10 signing of Curry during the Knicks training and praised DeRozan and Jordan Hill...

...

Other team presidents either believed it or thought it was a smoke bomb, but no matter what, they all believed that the young new owner would not lie to them.

There is no reason to lie. He himself has become the acting general manager, and his every word and action is being watched. It seems that he does not want to choose Curry, but focuses on muscular players.

This is actually a type that young people like, and they all like newcomers who love to quarrel with each other.

Riley: "Rookie boss, let's see how far you can go this time!"

Angie: "If you have money, you can be willful. He just treats the basketball manager as a kid."

Spurs general manager RC Buford also sighed: "It's an insult to our profession."

People in the basketball circle had just developed some favorable impressions of Jiang Chao because of his promotion of Downey Jr., but now they are all disappointed. After all, for them, basketball is their own career, not yours.

Is it not ironic that because you have money, you would play with something that they regard as their lifelong career?

Fortunately, the draft hasn't actually happened yet.

The fans didn't react much to this. It's normal for the boss to have players he likes. I didn't see him chatting a lot with DeRozan. DeRozan is known as "Little Kobe", which is also good.

Therefore, they all commented on Woj and others’ Twitter about their favorite players that they wanted the Knicks to draft.

This is what fans are like...please feel free to act like Boss Yun first, and then complain after the final results come out.

Of course, there are also those who are mindless...

Ever since Jiang Chao bought the team, he started complaining until now.

"Admiration by the law!! Trash ginger, you are fooling around!"

“Fake ginger!”

"Fake Jiang!! Sell the team!"

"Super! Admiration by the law!"

...

Jinzhou.

The Warriors, who are also holding trials, are training Spanish golden boy Rubio separately.

Old Nelson also got the news and couldn't help laughing:

"Haha, this idiot fired Old Downey, God help me!!"

"Curry should be able to come over for a trial now. You can call their team and ask him to come over for a trial!"

"Okay, I'll call the boss over when the time comes!" General Manager Larry Wright also high-fived Don Nelson, who had wild hair. It really took no effort at all.

Now it's time for them to prove to the Warriors that Curry is strong...

............

What everyone didn't know was that Jiang Chao had stored Curry's phone number in his mobile phone a long time ago, and after the trial training in the evening, he was afraid that Curry would run away in anger, so he called immediately:

"Hello? Stephen Curry?"

"Huh? Who are you?" The tone on the other end was very calm. I heard that he didn't play much in the afternoon.

"Is there anyone around you?" Jiang Chao's voice was very serious, which made Curry nervous. Moreover, the accent was so familiar.

"No one, I'm packing my luggage."

"Come to Super Star Apple Hotel on the 12th floor of 0ne-57 Avenue Apartments. I'll wait for you here. Don't tell anyone."

"You are..." After hearing this address, Curry, who had taken his wife around New York many times, became uneasy and his heart started to beat loudly.

No way!!

Jiang Chao smiled on the other end of the phone: "e-on!"

"Coming!"

Curry threw away his big pants, put on a suit for the draft, put on sunglasses, and got into a taxi nervously and funny...
