NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 80: Provoking the two heroes, the boss’s dinner party

The draft is over.

The headline on ESPN's official website is not a photo of Griffin or Thabeet.

It's a photo of Jiang Chao in a suit with his hands in his trouser pockets and looking into the distance.

"Kill Crazy, New Boss in New York!"

This may be the biggest NBA draft news tomorrow.

Including many newspaper reporters at the scene, they were all writing nonsense while complaining about Boss Jiang's exaggerated operation tonight.

"It needs to be rebuilt according to his direction."

"That's what it means. Let's pile up rookies. Including Ibaka, there will be a total of 6 rookies."

New York Times reporter: "It's ridiculous to put all your hopes on rookies instead of fishing for big names in the free market to save the record."

“You’ve read too much about how to operate the small ball market, but you have to spend money on the big ball market.”

"Can he afford it? I don't know why the league agreed. Are all the bosses in New York dead? He found such a poor boss who inherited the inheritance."

"Look at the Knicks' current lineup. Is there anyone who can really hold down the field?"

"No, haha, there isn't even an All-Star, how can we play?"

"One operation was as fierce as a tiger, and the result was two hundred and fifty!"

Next to him, the young reporter from the International Fiction Newspaper purchased by Jiang Chao rolled his eyes and thought:

"Didn't there be no All-Stars when Dolan was here?"

In his opinion, if Jiang Chao goes to the free market to become an All-Star, it is not a big deal. The real skill is to train him on his own.

If one of these people, even one, emerges as an All-Star in the future, Jiang Chao's manipulation of this draft will be considered a success.

His news content this time is also related to this, which is to guess what kind of training method Jiang Chao will use for so many rookies. Is it free competition or teaching in accordance with their aptitude?

There are still many difficulties left for Jiang Chao, but loyal Knicks fans will continue to follow!

Well, there are still many fans who like this method.

How the Knicks will play next season has become a hot topic among fans.

It was these two lottery guards who took crazy shots from the outside and grabbed some rebounds inside.

Or do you want to play a fast-break system and find a forward who can run?

"Let's look at the next window."

Knicks fans are unanimously satisfied with this draft. There are 5 guards and 1 post. This year has been a disaster for guards. It just depends on the survival of the fittest.

Next, let’s see what kind of waves this young boss will make in the free market with a rich salary cap.

If we really want to play next season with the current lineup, we will have to pay the poor man's tax, and the lineup will be deformed.

Power centers Eddy Curry and Jerome James are still recovering from injuries.

Starting guard Larry Hughes is also a homeless player and is destined to be traded.

David Lee is a puzzle player with poor independent offensive ability.

Gallinelli's backup striker is still very immature.

The one who really can score steadily for the Knicks now is veteran big Q Quentin Richardson.

Normal bosses will sign a few more immediate combatants to stabilize their record.

The newspaper said "Let it be rotten."

But after watching tonight's draft, no one would think that this young man wants to mess up. He is doing his best to change the current situation of the Orange and Blue.

Everyone sees your efforts.

That is, will it bloom?

...

The crowd here was almost empty. The new Knicks management really didn’t have many connections, so the Spurs management and the Suns management came over to chat with them for a while.

RC Buford still lets Sean Marks do a good job, and following Jiang Chao is pretty good.

As for the Suns, Old Downey came over alone to say hello to his old friend D'Antoni. He wanted D'Antoni to get out of his misery as soon as possible.

But now D'Antoni's thoughts are different from those at the beginning, and he even wants to wait until the end of next season before making a decision.

Because the five guards made his eyes shine, he also wanted to see how far this youth storm could reach, and because Jiang Chao was not as unbearable as Old Downey said.

Downey Jr. took his dad home for dinner:

"Dad, if you were robbed, you were robbed. There is no need for such an expression!"

Downey Sr.: "Nonsense!"

"You have to learn how to manage your expression like our boss. The whole world didn't expect that he actually chose Curry!"

"Go away!! Don't act like your boss is your boss every day, as if you are doing it badly."

"Anyway, Dad, you didn't get it, right? You have to obey."

"snort!"

Jiang Chao, on the other hand, invited Kuha to dinner. After a night of drafting, both of them were already very hungry.

The Crown Hotel directly summoned Liu Yan, Lu and his core management team, as well as Curry’s father, his girlfriend, and Harden’s mother to have a meal together.

It can be regarded as a clean break for the 09 double iron.

Curry and Harden are full of fighting spirit after seeing such a young team, and this does not include Stevens and Messina who have not yet come over, they are also new coaches.

"Everyone has been working hard recently. I would like to propose a toast to you all. There is no need to have a toast. We are all young people. The most important thing is eating and talking."

Jiang Chao's dinner party is different from that of other bosses. There is nothing fancy and he only talks about useful things when he is full.

"Three second-round picks are not here, so I will give you some requirements first."

"Okay boss! His agent has packed his bags for him. My son should have been training in New York recently." Old Curry replied first, there is nothing better than a boss who has a motivation.

Harden's agent also said that he would fly to check Harden's luggage tonight, and Harden has been in New York.

Sean Buford: "Well, your dormitory boss has rented it for you a long time ago. It has three bedrooms and one living room. You two can be roommates first."

"ok!"

Both Curry and Harden feel a sense of urgency to join the team! There are still more than three months until the regular season, so it is a good thing for the two of them to train more together to improve.

Jiang Chao clasped his fists with both hands, while Liu Yan stood sideways and looked admiringly at the man who controlled everything:

"This meal may be your best meal. Starting from the next meal, the team nutritionist will specially prepare a recipe for you.

For Curry, you need to focus on muscle strength. Of course, it is not the kind of muscle building, but resistance strength. The shooting feel cannot be changed.

In addition, change the way the ankle exerts force to reduce the possibility of ankle injury.

Harden's body shape remains unchanged, and he can practice physical fitness and endurance. He can appropriately increase his ability to hold the ball and attack the frame from the front."

This is Jiang Chao's off-season plan based on the shortcomings of the two in the future. Curry can't defend well. Since height is determined, strength will depend on the context.

Then there is Curry's most worrying ankle. In the early stages of his career, injuries affected many games. However, as long as his ankle is healthy, Curry will always be a threat on the court, so now he must start to appropriately change the way he exerts force.

As for Harden, Jiang Supernatural will not let him become fat, and Harden's biggest disadvantage is that he is invisible in the fourth quarter. In his previous life, even D'Antoni couldn't stand Harden's paddling performance in the fourth quarter in the last moments.

Put the mvp on the bench.

It’s because his physical and mental abilities will slack off at the last critical moment of the game, and his heart capacity is not good, which has a lot to do with his physical fitness.”

"Okay boss!"

Both of them agreed immediately.

Jiang Chao suddenly said with a chill:

"If you can't reach it, you will know it. There are a bunch of people chasing you. They are all the same type of players. If you can't do it, they will."

"yes!"

"Understood." Curry nodded seriously. He knew that now he had to return to the funny boss who was chatting and laughing in the one-57 building that day, and he had to achieve results!

In competitive sports, strength always speaks!

Old Curry patted Curry on the shoulder, indicating that he had to work hard.

When you get to the NBA, you are no longer the talented guard that Davis is. Everyone here is a beast, and you must train all the time.

Harden grilled the barbecue confidently. Isn't it the last delicious meal? After eating, practice everything!

Jiang Chao looked with satisfaction at the two first-year students who were gritting their teeth and preparing to fight. This was the spurring effect of selecting three guards in the second round, making these two future bosses nod seriously like students after Jiang Chao finished speaking.

Old Curry, agent Austin and others have some admiration for Jiang Chao. At the same age, he has beaten two unruly talented guards to death. This is not just a matter of ability.

This is someone who really has the potential to be a boss, putting aside his draft and previous craziness.

Everything they say and do now makes them feel comfortable leaving their children to such a team.

This guy didn't celebrate like the young boss imagined, but he set very pertinent goals for the players right after the draft.

Obviously he had already studied these two people thoroughly.

More peace of mind is yet to come...

After finishing the meal, Jiang Chao directly grabbed Sean Marks and briefly talked about something.

That is, both lottery picks are negotiating five-year rookie contracts. No player or team options are required, just five years.

If it could last longer, of course Jiang Chao would also like to sign the contract for 7 or 10 years like in the last century.

But after a bunch of big, bad contracts at the beginning of the century, David Stern stipulated that the labor contract should be a maximum of 5 years, which could be extended by one year using bird rights.

The maximum rookie contract is $41, five years.

Sean Marks was shocked:

"Boss, are you sure?"
