NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 36: The young coach is here! You are my head coach!

Chapter 36: The young marshal is here! You are my head coach!

Texas, Dallas.

Mavericks management office.

Jiang Chao's rejection of Iverson shocked many people. Didn't he make any money from the tickets? And what about the candidate for the head coach? Is he not selected either?

The managers were talking a lot.

The Texas Sports News directly questioned Jiang Chao's knowledge of basketball operations, but the NBA official website stated that the Knicks are pursuing management talents, so that fans can calm down, which undoubtedly relieves a lot of pressure on the Knicks.

Insiders think Jiang Chao is still smart.

But with the Knicks not bringing Kidd...

At this time, Mavericks president Cuban and head coach Carlisle were having a heated argument.

The Mavericks, one of the top three Texas teams aiming to win the championship, were ruthlessly eliminated by the Nuggets in the semifinals this season. They have held several meetings in a row to discuss how to go further next season.

As Kidd jumped out of his contract, Cuban and Carlisle quarreled over the contract extension.

Cuban wants to extend Kidd's contract and sign free agent Rasheed Wallace to form a space lineup, allowing the Mavericks to completely play in space.

Carlisle, on the other hand, does not want to stay the same, and feels that Fury Tianzun is old and should always introduce new models, using the model of cash future draft picks to trade upwards for draft picks, and get a powerful guard rookie to serve as Kidd's substitute.

Even... let the Knicks make an offer. We want the Knicks' offensive guard Xiaotuo, a point-control passing guard Duhong!

Since it is for the sake of performance next season, be bold. The signing next season is not important. He has watched all the rookie videos and he likes the playing styles of Evans, Curry and Harden very much!

He even said that Marion was not good enough and that he could exchange Harrington's words with the Knicks.

This touches Cuban's objections. He has always been a boss who values players above all else. Later generations will know when choosing between Doncic and the head coach that the players he likes must be satisfied!

Coming from Carlisle Academy, he is a typical head coach who arranges lineups according to his own tactics.

The two were quarreling in the office, and Cuban always had the final say. Carlisle had worked with him for so many years because Carlisle rarely really stopped him from doing anything.

But this year he was defeated by the Nuggets 4-1. He felt that he needed fresh blood instead of continuing Cuban's traditional point guard thinking.

When Cuban heard that Carlisle even asked him to pay 5 million in cash to try to trade for Evans, he even said this:

"If you want to work hard, get out if you don't. The players on our team can be transferred to any head coach!"

Carlisle, who lives in New York, was also angry:

"Send your resume to the Knicks now!!"

…

Here at Butler University.

"Oh, that handsome head coach! He should be at Hinkle Arena!"

The foreign girl turned around and was stunned for a moment when she saw Jiang Chao's handsome face, and twisted her body charmingly.

"How to get to the basketball stadium?"

"I'll take you there! Classmate, what's your major?"

The best friend next to me also blinked. Butler University is a small school with less than 4,000 students. The school beauties are visible to the naked eye. Suddenly, a handsome Asian guy wearing a famous brand appears. Can you not be surprised?

This Armani Shivani Rolex...

"Physical Education Department, take me there first and treat you to milk tea."

"No wonder it's so tall. We have a party tonight. Do you want to date me?"

"?????"

wtf?

Jiang Chao's face was full of questions. Sure enough, the school style was different, but why were the foreign girls so talkative?

"You don't need to take it with you."

A 2-meter-tall Caucasian student wearing headphones rushed out of the teaching building in front of him, swinging his hair while dribbling in a coherent manner. His face seemed familiar to Jiang Chao. Jiang Chao quickly got rid of these chatty girls.

Old double standard.

"You don't like men, do you? The coach Brad Stevens you mentioned is also very handsome and is our idol." Several people rushed up to him, looking very shaken.

Jiang Chao was a little dizzy from being shaken, and quickly followed up with the tall and thin white boy in front of him.

"...Later, sisters, the person shooting the ball in front is the varsity player of our school team!"

"Follow me! Go to Hinkle Arena!"

Made!

Slow down.

The man in front practiced fast dribbling, causing Jiang Chao to start jogging too.

However, he is also a sports expert. After not exercising for a long time, he simply unbuttoned the top button of his shirt and officially started running.

While running, I was thinking about how to recruit this magical young commander.

Yes, the purpose of coming to Butler University is to recruit a head coach!

Later, we will recruit a general manager in Texas.

Therefore, as long as his long-term business trip is successful, it will directly complement the entire management team!

The reason for finding the head coach first is because the coach must first know the existing players and the adapted lineup before he can study the tactics in advance. He is prepared to give the new head coach sufficient preparation time.

The most important part of the iron triangle.

Head coach!

To put it simply, what really makes the team achieve results is the coaching staff!

Jiang Chao can only scold Fang Qiu at the management and player levels.

But it is the head coach who actually faces the team every day, handles team problems, sets the team's tactics and arranges each player's role and playing time.

Just like he won't go to the players' physical test site.

It's a waste of time and price, so it's impossible for him to be the head coach concurrently.

At most, he would brag about some of the more awesome tactics of later generations. If you really want to pursue every detail and be on the spot, you have to be a professional.

The reason why D'Antoni was demoted to coaching assistant is also very simple, that is, Jiang Chao knows that the lineup he wants to play in the future is not one that D'Antoni can coach.

He needs unfettered young strength to complete his dream combination of players!

D'Antoni will use point guards, but now the team can't just rely on guards C, who specialize in skills, so he came to the young coach.

He had read the resumes of those he wanted to interview a few days ago, but Coach Stephens was not included, so he had to go out and invite him personally.

Despite the deformed lineup of the Knicks, there are too many people who want to be their head coach.

There is no way, this is the Knicks, there will be no shortage of people.

Only Jiang Chao could see it.

There are many famous teachers who have taken the initiative to show their interest in being poached by the Knicks.

Make money, don’t be shabby!

All he wanted was for Jiang Chao to offer a high price.

Most of them are assistant coaches and analysts for NBA teams, and some NCAA coaches.

The assistants of some teams do not have contracts. They just get paid and get paid. If they change jobs and become NBA head coaches, no one will stop them, because it will show that the team has more foundation.

Look, don’t big football markets also poach people from us?

Jiang Chao knows their inner thoughts. Just like the rookies who want to save the Knicks, coaches who really understand football want to lead a team like the Knicks. It is already so bad in the eyes of the outside world. If I lead the team, I will

He is a hero!

A low starting point means less pressure.

For those of them who wanted to pick up the slack, Jiang Chao asked Downey Jr. to reply:

"Our goal is to win the championship. The contract was signed five years ago and the basic salary is commissioned. If you have the courage, come back."

What he said was not to reject everyone, but to screen out the bastards. If anyone is really capable and has dreams, then he would completely welcome them, even if he didn't know them, it would be okay.

The basic salary commission means that the basic salary is the same as that of ordinary employees, but when the number of wins reaches a certain level, the bonuses will be very generous.

For example, if you win 50 games in a season, that will be a bonus of 2 million, which is equivalent to the annual salary of many famous coaches.

Of course, there is also the overlord clause added by Jiang Chao. If he loses 6 consecutive games at the beginning of the game, he will take the initiative to get out.

If you can't come up with winning tactics with the lineup built by Jiang Chao in 6 games, then you can get out.

He also wanted to use this to screen out some ambitious assistant coaches who could be trainers rather than head coaches.

It turned out that no one was sending resumes anymore, and those famous teachers didn't need to send resumes to the Knicks.

So in the end, Jiang Chao still had to run it himself. He believed that the young commander would agree to the rules he set.

Jiang Chao gasped for breath while running.

This school is too big, and there are not many people on the road. The girl behind has already lost track of her, but the boy in front slows down, takes off his earphones, and prepares to walk into the building with the sound of "pa~pa~pa" in front.

"Huh, are we here?"

The basketball student in front swiped his card and was about to enter the gym. Jiang Chao quickly shouted:

"Hey, classmate, brush it for me, I want to go in."

The 2-meter-tall student turned back and said skillfully:

"Sorry, the school team is training tonight. Outsiders are not allowed in."

Jiang Chao was stunned for a moment when he saw the face in front of him.

What the fuck???

Isn’t this Mr. Hai?

No, Hayward?

Although he is much thinner now than he was in the NBA, his appearance and height cannot be changed. You can recognize this handsome man almost at a glance.

Jiang Chao calmly took off his cap and replied with a smile:

"I'm not an outsider. Maybe I'll choose you to join our team next year."

Heywood took off his headphones and was stunned. The first thing he thought about was what kind of plane was this kid doing?

When he saw Boss Jiang, a Chinese face familiar to everyone in the basketball world, he opened his eyes wide in surprise:

"Wow? You are ??xxx"

He even uttered a curse word.

He rubbed his eyes, was he right? Why did Jiang Chao suddenly appear in their university?

"You've played so many games that you don't even recognize me anymore?"

"We know each other. It's just my first time meeting a real person. It's amazing!!"

Heywood is nervous and excited now that his pocket money is not enough for this future financial owner.

The two are actually the same age, Jiang Chao was born 7 days earlier than Hayward, so the conversation was natural.

Hayward quickly swiped Jiang Chao's card and came in. Jiang Chao bought two sausages from the water seller and handed one to him.

"Hayward, take one."

Hayward, who was still a freshman at this time, was already so excited that he was speechless.

joke!

The Knicks owner showed up in Indiana and called out his name, which worked better than any scout or manager!

When he wanted to come, did the boss come to find him in advance? He also said that he might become a colleague next year!

He took the sausage and while he was thinking about it, a stern shout came from the arena:

"Hey Gordon, what are you doing! You're late!"

"I just finished class and I'm late. I'm sorry." It was obvious that Heywood respected this handsome man who was wearing a gray T-shirt and a belt tied to his waist.

"Didn't you say no outsiders are allowed in?? Your roommate??"

At this time, this man in his 30s with short blond hair and a young face also saw the out-of-place Jiang Chao wearing next to Heywood and asked.

"No..." Just as Heywood rushed forward to explain.

Jiang Chao also entered the arena, and many people looked over, looking at the handsome guy next to him.

After all, this is Butler University's star player, freshman talent Haywood.

But what Jiang Chao said next shocked the entire scene.

"Hello, Marshal, I am Jiang Chao."

"Um?"

The man didn't react for a moment and looked over with a frown.

What's the situation? A freshman wants to join the basketball team?

But the players who were more familiar with basketball news than him were all excited and immediately bombarded him.

Jiang Chao!!
