Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Acquiring an NBA team is difficult to imagine, but in fact it is very easy to operate. As long as the team owner agrees, the league agrees, and you can pay enough taxes, then everything will be as quick as a green light.

After all, the current chairman of the NBA is Stern. After taking over the position of NBA chairman in 1984, he devoted himself to making the NBA a great chairman who influenced global sports projects.

Although his current main goal is still on the NBA's influence in American sports leagues and expanding its influence to European countries, he does not mind taking the lead in expanding the NBA's influence to ancient China.

Although people around the world now regard that ancient country as a feudal and backward old man, this does not prevent him from taking over a wealthy boss in this country and joining the NBA league, especially when the new boss gave him a few suggestions.

After a very surprising opinion, he welcomed the other party to join him even more.

All players and coaches at the 76ers' training center, as well as assistant coaches and staff, stood on the court to greet their new boss.

The members, who had been unable to make the playoffs for several consecutive years, barely had a chance to survive because of the signing of Jerry Stackhow in 1996, a rookie who was known as Jordan's overtime man.

This year, Jordan's successor has continued to decline this year, but they signed a stronger No. 1 pick last year and performed very well this year, which makes them more hopeful. But just as they are preparing to unite and wait for this hope to mature and blossom

As a result, when he was leading the team to achieve greater glory, the team boss was replaced.

What's more, he was replaced by a Chinese whom they didn't know at all, which cast a shadow over the hearts of all the players and coaches who had been actively preparing for the game.

"I am very happy to acquire this team and have excellent players like you. Although the team has changed owners, except for recruiting better players to join you, the previously internally decided plan will not change at all.

And..." Yang Dongxu paused here: "After training, I'm going to treat you to the largest nightclub in Philadelphia."

"Aww..."

When they saw such a young Chinese boss, everyone was a little nervous, wondering what the young boss would say when they met for the first time.

Who would have thought that the other party would be so open-minded, come up and show that they would not point fingers, and would only spend money to buy better players to join the team, and then treat them directly. The players who were originally worried suddenly felt that their new boss seemed to be okay.

Yes, unlike the previous boss who wanted good results but was unwilling to spend money and was very stingy.

Watching the players excitedly discussing how to go to the nightclub and what are the characteristics of the largest nightclub. Larry Brown's face was not as relaxed as the players. He asked the assistant coach to restrain the excited players and continue training, so as not to give up.

The new boss walked into the office after leaving a bad impression.

Walking into the office with him was Buck Coulson, now the general manager of the 76ers. He was a fat man who was only 165cm tall. From the outside, it seemed a bit funny because he was so fat.

But he is such a fat man who looks a little funny, but he has excellent vision and team management ability. The 76ers have such poor performance in recent years, but from time to time they can still find some good players and poach them, all because of his vision.

It's a pity that I was unlucky enough to meet a stingy boss. No matter how optimistic about a player, the first thing to consider is always the price, and then the player's ability. If you can meet a player with both ability and cheapness, then naturally

It's better, his previous boss always thought so, which sometimes made him very distressed.

"What I just said is not empty talk to comfort people. The team's current management system and plans will indeed not change. I called you two to come to the office because I want to know more about the team, and at the same time I want to hear your thoughts on the current team.

Insights on shortcomings.

Don’t worry, I’m not someone who’s eager for quick success. I’m asking you to do what you want this year or next year. After all, capable players also need time to grow. But I don’t want the team to continue to be bad, so the results don’t mean it must enter the playoffs.

But at least we can't be at the bottom like we are now." Yang Dongxu looked at the two people who were a little nervous and said.

Hearing his big boss say this, Buck and Larry Brown, who were a little worried at first, looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. They also felt a bit like the outside players that 'their boss is really too good'.

In other words, he is simply too considerate. He will not do anything they are afraid of, but will support everything they want to do. He is simply the best boss.

As for the team performance issue that seems to have no requirements but is actually required, this is nothing to them. After all, this is what they have always wanted to do. One of them is the general manager of the team and the other is the coach.

No one is willing to let the team go bad, or any manager or coach of any team, even if they are considering the draft, no one is willing to make the team go bad. Every year, they compete with the bottom team to see who is worse, to be honest.

It feels really embarrassing to go out and meet my colleagues.

"Let me first talk about the current player situation and salary structure of the team." After confirming that the boss in front of him really wants to improve the team and will not blindly direct the team in a hurry for quick success, Buck pondered and said.

It was obvious that he had been prepared before, and this preparation was naturally a work report if the new boss was good. If the new boss made him more desperate than the previous boss, it was a resignation report for the work handover. The current situation is obviously

The former one.

The current total salary of all 76ers players is US$28.61 million, which does not include venue fees, his own expenses, coaches, assistants and logistics expenses.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Counting all these, the team's current annual expenses are about 35 million US dollars. This is all money spent, as for the income, including tickets, some endorsements and other

The sales of peripheral items will bring in more than 27 million yuan this year.

So it is a certainty that it will lose more than 5 million US dollars this year. Therefore, Yang Dongxu's price of 50 million to buy the team is really high. Because after paying taxes, all the money goes into Schneider's pocket. As for the team's losses and all expenses

From the moment he signed the contract, Schneider would be his without having to pay a dime.

After Buck gave the team's overall salary and management report last night, Larry Brown briefly introduced the team's situation and the current overall plan to build a new team with Iverson as the core.

However, although they are currently preparing to build Iverson as the core of the team, the 76ers' highest-paid player is not Iverson. He is not even ranked second and can only be ranked third.

The current highest salary of the 76ers is Derrick Coleman at US$8 million, and the second highest salary is Jim Jackson at US$4.6 million. The combined salary of the two people is nearly half of the entire team.

And what makes Yang Dongxu even more speechless is that if these two players can play such a high value for money, then he will definitely have no objection. But the current physical condition of these two people is not that optimistic. Although the doctor’s diagnosis does not say that they will be reimbursed for the season.

Went home directly to rest.

In the 82 games of the regular season, it is estimated that at least one-third of the games will be missed. In other words, the attendance rate of two-thirds of the two people with the highest salary is good, and the remaining one-third of the time needs to be recuperated.

This is still the most optimistic estimate. If there are any new injuries during the game, the attendance rate will continue to decline.

In addition, the fourth salary man in the team, Jerry Stackhow, is also injured, and the situation is more pessimistic than the previous two. Therefore, out of the five-man lineup this season, three of them are already thin.

What is even more speechless is that among the three 76ers stars, one is a slacker and two are prodigals. Jim Jackson, who is second in salary, is known as the NBA's number one prodigal in later generations. His career lasted 14 years, including the Hornets who did not report to the team.

13 teams play.

Although Jerry Stackhow is not as prodigal as Jim, he is hailed as Jordan's successor. Because of his rebellious and uncertain character, it is difficult to cultivate him as the core of the team. In his heart, he is no less prodigal than Jim.

Then there is Derrick Coleman, the most valuable man. Karl Malone once said that if he could work as hard as him, Michael Jordan would not be number one in the league. Barkley also believed that he was the most talented forward in history.

That guy is a slacker and an alcoholic.

Although he was the No. 1 pick in the 90th overall pick based on statistics alone, he was not completely considered a parallel import No. 1 pick. However, due to his personal laziness and undisciplined life, it was difficult for the team to tolerate him, so he was sent to the 76ers by the Nets.

As a result, he only played 11 games due to injuries in the first year after the transfer. His attendance rate in the 1996-97 season was okay, but now he is injured again... and he gained weight due to lack of self-discipline during the injury.

"Coleman must warn that if he still lets it go, measures must be taken. The same goes for the other two. If you want to build a championship team, not to mention that all players need to work hard, but at least they cannot let this happen.

People bring bad luck to newcomers in the team." After listening to Larry Brown's report, Yang Dongxu pinched his eyebrows depressedly.

Before, his understanding of the 76ers was limited to later generations' love for Iverson and the information recently obtained through Zhou Ya's investigation. Now after learning more about it in detail, he felt that his acquisition this time was too natural.

The only reason why a team is so bad is not only because it is bad, but also because it is really bad. This situation has a lot to do with bad players. The current 76ers are simply the result of these bad players.

In the concentration camp, Iverson can be said to be the only bit of green, but right now this bit of green is still too young and just a newcomer.

"Can it be traded to strengthen the lineup?" Buck's eyes lit up. His new boss didn't seem to be afraid of spending money, which made him feel that he had a chance to perform.

If Schneider hadn't wanted to save money and find capable players, how could he have traded these problematic players to the team.

"First of all, give me a warning and emphasize discipline. Everything must be done in accordance with team rules. If you don't listen, I will ask you about exchanges and reinforcements. If no one is willing to take over the player for the time being, let him sit on the bench for me. If I don't change it one day, I will let him do it.

Bench. Let the new substitute come on and don’t give him a chance, even if he loses in the end, it doesn’t matter.” Yang Dongxu expressed his tough attitude on this issue with a wave of his hand.
