NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 96: The awkward Italian cannon

Jiang Chao also didn't expect Ma Ge to play in the first game. He was going to be given a contract anyway, so why not give it early and sell him an extra favor?

Matthews is a tough person who refuses to admit defeat and will fight against himself.

If we really want to sign him after Summer League ends, he may have already performed well and be snatched away by other teams.

You must know that he was an academic defensive back who showed his strength after playing a few games with the Jazz. The following year, the Trail Blazers directly offered him the highest salary and the highest signing fee. They poached him from the Jazz, who had salary difficulties every year, and directly replaced him.

Roy's location!

So it will be done in just 3 years!

If it weren't for a two-way contract with a maximum of 3 years, Sean Marks would want to sign more. Players with a two-way contract are NBA reserves. The reserves are so stable in the first actual game, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that his playing style is a solid academy.

Yes, if the upper limit is not high and the lower limit is set, there will be no loss in a two-way contract.

"Speaking of Danny Green and Beverley, where's Mills?"

Jiang Chao is more concerned about these people in the second round. Their training period may be longer.

Sean Marks:

"From a fan's perspective, they may have some problems."

…

"What? They have assumed the offensive mission? Didn't I tell them to do what they should do?"

"I guess the young marshal wanted to prove it, but it still didn't work."

Sean Marks briefly expressed his feelings, that is, it is really uncomfortable for these three people to touch the ball when attacking in position, but Beverley and Mills are a little better.

Danny Green couldn't dribble the ball smoothly and was in a panic.

"Except for Beverley, if the other two offensive players don't touch the ball, they are not good at holding the ball."

Sean Marks has been exposed to new knowledge. The shooting guard does not touch the ball and only acts as a shooter?

Are you sure this works?

Isn't it so cool? Wouldn't it be very easy to defend against these four major shooting guards in the league?

"They were recruited for defense and three-point shooting. They just need to practice tactics and positioning."

Jiang Chao explained a few more words. It's not that simple. Making good use of Danny Green and Mills and matching their positions would be exhausting.

In this era, you may not need a shooter to win the championship, but having one or two top shooters will make it easier to win, otherwise the space will be too small.

Nowadays, the old-school retro style of play of some teams makes him uncomfortable. Basically, five players are rushing inside.

But there are also a lot of fast players, and people like Danny Green who are great at helping defense and running are able to handle everything.

If every defender really holds the ball, the ball cannot be scored.

Jiang Chao touched his forehead. He knew what the coaching staff was thinking, which was that they could make up for it in the second round if the lottery was lost. However, he knew that these two lottery tickets were unlikely to be lost, so he could rest assured and just train them.

"Okay, I will convey your intention to the coaching staff later."

after one day.

Jiang Chao went to the training ground and heard the young coach's feedback. He really tried to test Green and Mills' ability to attack with the ball. The effect was touching, so he gave up and finished the job.

Jiang Chao also gave him the tactical manual he wrote:

"Don't spread it to outsiders, martial arts secrets, haha."

"Boss, you have already written down how to use them!!" The young marshal's expression was: Why didn't you give it to me earlier!

Compared with Jiang Chao's understanding of these later generations of veteran stars, it is naturally difficult for him, a coach who has been involved in college courts in the past few years, to figure out their style in such a short period of time.

But the coaching staff thinks the biggest problem is Gallinelli.

Gallinelli was not in high spirits in the first game last night, and Turkoglu could not find his position when he was on the court.

Because he is also a European player, Gallinelli also wants to organize and hold the ball in the top arc, and...

The young commander had some words that he couldn't say, but Downey Jr. said it directly.

That is, although the lineup is confirmed, Gallinelli has always been frustrated with the boss after recruiting Turkoglu. In addition, he has never met him once and does not trust him, a tall boy who played well last year.

The forward, after seeing Jiang Chao not coming last night, played like a sleepwalker for 8 minutes, finishing with 4 points and 3 turnovers.

You know, he was the lottery winner last year!

"Ahem, then should I watch the football or not..."

Jiang Chao said that it is difficult for him to do what he does. Watching football puts pressure on players. If they don’t watch football, some players are crazy and like to show off to others. They have black silk stockings off the court and Rose on the court.

Downey Jr.: "Boss, I suggest you talk to Gallinelli. He has been our hope since last year. His template is Turk Drew. I don't know what you expect from him, but he is emo (melancholy).

) will definitely not play well."

"Then you call him over."

"Okay!"

Downey Jr. and his father were fully involved in the selection of Gallinelli last year. They still want to play this outside slugger.

Soon, a rich and handsome Italian man who was as tall as the Turkish agent came to Jiang Chao.

He was not as excited as the rookies to see Jiang Chao, so he said "Hello, boss" normally.

Then when everyone thought Jiang Chao was going to have some chicken soup, Jiang Chao stood up and said:

"I want to say that it was you who went to the Thunder, not Duhong. The team does not leave unknown people. I don't want to hear about any quarrels and things that don't want to be fought."

Knock on the mountain and shake the tiger!

Downey Jr. next to him was so scared that he almost peed. This was so fierce!

Gallinelli, who was also young, was also startled. He lowered his head and said nothing, his heart pounding:

"Okay...good boss."

Since he was going to be traded to the Thunder, why did he stay later?

Jiang Chao stared at him after listening for more than ten seconds and said:

"Your mission in the team now is to attack tough situations. Didn't you realize that the front line doesn't have a breakthrough player like you? Last season, you showed me what a fighting spirit is. The other Knicks players are just trying to earn points and wait to die, but you are the only one.

I really want to win, that’s what I saw, and I want to see these things this year too, that’s why I kept you here.”

"Understood." Gallinelli nodded like a child who had done something wrong. Indeed, although his physical talent is not as good as that of the American forwards, his tough style of play and fearlessness of muscle confrontation are still outstanding, that is,

There are no cowards in Italy!

"Go ahead, I won't trade you, don't worry."

Jiang Chao finally gave him some chewing gum, which also made Downey Jr. relax. Otherwise, if they kept talking like this, the next step would be to put him on the shelf, which would be scary.

Gallinelli was also very talented at this time. He said what he wanted to say directly:

"I know, but I don't accept it. Boss, why do you want Turk Drew? I will be better than him!"

"Then are you better than him now?? You said it yourself, you should learn everything about him first!"

Then Jiang Chao walked up to him and patted his shoulder, whispered the last word beside him and left:

"He only has a two-year contract. Seize the opportunity and the future is yours."

(The youth storm of the Timberwolves and Grizzlies is okay, this is what young teams look like.)
