NBA Tyrant

Head coach Johnny entered the office with the general manager's secretary and saw the general manager Wiesbrod sitting at his desk drinking coffee, his eyes misty, as if thinking about something.

"The general manager, the head coach Johnny is here. The secretary came to the table and reminded the general manager softly.

"Huh?" General Manager Visbrod was pulled back from his thoughts by the secretary's reminder, and when he saw the head coach of the team, he smiled, "Johnny, you're here!" "General

Manager, are you looking for me for something?" Johnny sat down and looked at General Manager Visbrod.

Actually, Johnny knew in his heart what the general manager was looking for him, but he still had to ask what he should ask, otherwise the two would not have to talk, and the scene would be quite embarrassing, so he took the initiative to ask.

"Well, that's right, isn't our champion boy back, since he can get such a high evaluation from Olajuwon, and he has a strong physical talent, the boss is very optimistic about him, and..."

General manager Wisbrodt paused, "The boss thought that he could put out a few videos of Howard and Olajuwon going heads-up, so that fans can understand the strength of our champion, so that we can attract some fans to buy our tickets in the new season."

"No, Howard learned from Olajuwon the dream footwork and developed offensive ability with the ball, which is still a secret and the outside world doesn't know, we can use it as a secret weapon for the start of the regular season, and bring good unexpected results to our opponents in the first few games, so I don't recommend going public now." "

Coach Johnny looked at the general manager seriously, and the denial was very resolute.

"General manager, I'm showing you Howard's training video, not to attract fans, but to see the strength and value that Howard is showing right now.

Johnny paused.

"I hope that the team can build a lineup around Howard that suits him, so as to win more games for the team, lead the team to the playoffs, and even go further. I think you should be able to see that Howard is going to be a super center at an all-time level, and he deserves the team's chips to improve the roster, and the general manager, it's worth any effort!

"Haha, Johnny, don't get excited, what does Howard think about the training video, you have been talking to Howard for so long today, do you have anything to say about the team lineup?"

Originally, the team's plan for Howard was to cultivate it slowly, let Howard grow up step by step, and then match Howard with a suitable lineup of players and experienced head coaches.

The team gave Howard 2-3 years to grow, depending on how fast Howard grows.

But now, it's clear that Howard is much better than the previous scouting report suggests, which has given the Magic management more to think about and look for change.

At this time, the management remembered that Johnny wanted to build a lineup and develop a tactical style around Howard before, so they approached Johnny a few times to hear Johnny's ideas for the team's lineup play.

If Johnny's style of play does not satisfy the management, then the management will consider replacing Johnny, a rookie coach, and find a coach who will build a center forward as the core system to lead the team.

The management had never heard or seen the big four small lineup and the one-star system proposed by Johnny, although they heard what Johnny said, but the management still had no bottom in their hearts.

So, I asked Johnny to communicate with Howard and listen to Howard's opinion on the one-star system, which led to Johnny's previous finding Howard.

But the management would never have imagined that all of Johnny's ideas were constantly refined on the basis of Howard's proposed lineup play.

So now the general manager asked Howard what he thought, and Howard naturally fully supported the creation of a star-studded system.

But Johnny certainly can't directly say that Howard proposed this system, and saying it is not conducive to Howard winning more favor in front of the team's management.

"Yes, general manager, I talked a lot with Howard, he is very interested in this lineup and system, and I am also looking forward to the strength of the lineup with him as the core after the lineup is perfected.

Johnny first affirmed Howard's satisfaction with the lineup, and then said:

"And, with the shooter, Howard made it clear that he is not a tough person who demands how many shots he must take, as long as his teammates have open opportunities, he is willing to pass the ball to his outside teammates as soon as they have an open opportunity, let his teammates score, and as long as he can win, he is willing to sacrifice personal data for the team."

General Manager Wiesbrod nodded, picked up the pen, and wrote the word selfless in the notebook.

"Well, selfless, very good quality. Johnny, let's evaluate our champions! I haven't heard what Howard looks like in your eyes, but privately, you have a lot of contact with him, and you will know him better than we do, like personality, ability, or whatever.

"The first thing that comes to my mind is, steady!" Johnny stuck out his index finger, "and he reminds me of the San Antonio Spurs' debutant champion, Tim Duncan!" "

And then there's confidence, and domineering, I'm talking about Howard on the court, and in private, he's a real 19-year-old boy, and he's a good talker.

"Thirdly, he is serious and wise, which can be clearly seen from his dreamy footsteps, he learns quickly, trains seriously and hard, and can flexibly use his feet to complete the attack.

"A big fan of power, or rather, a hidden violent, he actually likes to crush the inside and destroy his opponents with heavy dunks. The

general manager quickly recorded in his notebook when he saw Johnny stop.

Go on. "

Ability characteristics, excellent physical talent, needless to say, and then have a very strong low singles technique and dominance. "

Fantastic footwork, mid-to-long range shooting, offensive ability with the ball, all of his abilities combine to make it difficult for him to be limited on the offensive end. General

Manager: "What about the disadvantages?"

Johnny: "After all, Howard is a high school graduate, has only played high-level games, and has not been exposed to higher-level games.

"He has about zero NBA-level game experience, and it remains to be seen if he can adapt to the intensity of the NBA game in the early stage, but of course, I believe Howard will adapt well and quickly. General

Manager: "So, Johnny, the lineup and style of play you have built around Howard, can the current Howard play the power of the style of play perfectly?" Johnny: "

Well, I can only say that it is very suitable for Howard, but it is difficult to say how much it can play, you know, the current lineup system is only on paper, has not been practiced, and the current lineup is not very suitable."

"This system, the best, also requires Howard to play his containment at the same time, and have a certain passing ability, so that open teammates have open scoring opportunities, and at present, I haven't found that Howard has a better passing ability, this is the ability that Howard is going to develop. The

general manager raised his hand and motioned for Johnny to stop, put away the pen and notebook, and looked at Johnny.

"Johnny, you and Howard will talk to you, go to the boss's house for a meal tomorrow night, the boss invited, by the way, let's talk about your one-star system, the boss is very interested in your system.

Johnny: "Okay, then the general manager, I'll go back and sort out the information first, and tell the boss some key points of the one-star system tomorrow night." "

Okay, let's go!" Howard

showed up at the general manager's office at five o'clock the next afternoon, along with head coach Johnny.

"Hey, Howard, I haven't seen you in a while, and you look strong again!" the general manager stood in front of Howard and patted Howard's thick arm, his eyes revealing envy.

"General manager, I did gain weight, now I have 122 kilograms, which is 4 kilograms heavier than when I was a rookie. Howard smiled and said politely.

"Don't stand, come, you sit down first, the boss is probably still in his company, and we will go to the boss's house together in 1 hour." "The general manager is very friendly to his champion.

"You're

welcome, the boss invited you to his house this time, probably to understand your goals for the new season, especially Howard, the boss knows that you and Olajuwon have some ideas for the new season after winning more and losing more heads-up

," the general manager Weisbrod handed a cigar to the two of them, and when they both shook their heads and said no, they continued: "Moreover, I am very interested in Johnny's one-star system around you." I heard Johnny say yesterday that you agree with his one-star tactical play, can you tell us what you think of

this system?" "It's appropriate, this system uses my interior ability to contain the opponent's defense, defend me alone, the opponent can't prevent me, wrap me, I will distribute the ball to the outside line, so that teammates have a chance to score in the open space."

"There are a lot of variations, like the defensive end, where I sit on the inside, and I focus on defensive shooting on the outside, and if the opponent breaks through, I stick to the opponent, and I will help defend the opponent who breaks through.

"Overall, I like the system, which is focused on me on both ends of the pitch and gets the most out of my role. "

Regarding the general manager's question about his views on the system, Howard calmly elaborated on the surface, but he complained in his heart, and I proposed it myself, of course, 200% support.

"Okay, then let's talk to the boss in the evening, according to Johnny, we can't support the current roster yet, and we need to trade a few players to make up for the shortcomings of the squad. "
