NBA: Start with 20 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 17 Head Coach Candidates

Chapter No.17: Head Coach Candidates

The young assistant coach was ashamed next to him, and he offered to contact the head coach D'Antoni.

Because this scout who is one level lower than him actually knows more about team affairs than him, and his business level is really good.

This made him want to find a hole in the ground in front of his new boss.

He knows that sentence doesn't know, it's disgusting to think about it
A tiger father has no dogs, and Donny Walsh Jr. inherited his father's research spirit when he was young, and he still has a few brushes.

Jiang Chao has never been a boss in his previous life, but he has met too many bosses. Every company must have such an active employee who knows everything.

"Well, go ahead and figure it out this time."

Jiang Chao's voice was calm, which made the young teaching assistant feel the chill behind him, and quickly picked up his mobile phone to do things.

"What about you, Brother Downey, what do you want from me?"

And now, Jiang Chao asked Downey Walsh Jr. why he came.

Downey Jr. did not sit down, but directly lowered his head and said:
"Boss, I want to keep working for the Knicks!"

"Aren't you doing it?" Jiang Chao turned his chair, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"But my father."

"What does your father have to do with you? I should also congratulate him for changing jobs."

"You should have listened to what I said in the arena just now. If you stay, you will be your own people. Just work hard for the Knicks together."

Jiang Chao's attitude showed everything. Thinking of what Jiang Chao said in his speech just now, Downey Jr. burst into tears again. The man did not cry easily. Today he has been excited too many times.

He was too scared, afraid that he would be fired.

He can't just look for a job like old Downey. He has a money-digging girlfriend to support and a mother to take care of, so he has to keep working!
Bow directly at 90 degrees:
"Thank you boss, I, I will do everything you ask me to do!!!"

Everything was kept silent, and Jiang Chao didn't ask him why he stayed, because he knew in his mind that Old Downey was from New York, which is why he agreed to Dolan to work here last year. Manager, there is no need to come to the Knicks to lie in the mud.

It is no different from family, love, affection, friendship, or maybe it is the depth of true love for Knicks.

In fact, why young people are willing to stay, the young assistant just told the truth.

This is New York! !
What young man is willing to leave the Big Apple, a place where opportunities and dangers coexist?
To be young is to break through!
To be honest, if the boss is inexperienced, such a team is the most innovative. With such a boss, it is impossible to be mediocre or fail.

"Ok!"

Just as Downey Jr. was about to leave excitedly and told his family that he would not be dismissed, Jiang Chao stopped him:
"Your current position is a low-level scout, right?"

"Yes, boss."

"You are now the deputy director of the personnel department, in charge of scouting."

"what!"

Before it was his turn to be surprised and excited, Jiang Chao got up and patted him on the shoulder:

"Good job."

"OK, ok!!!!!!"

Instead of falling, Downey Jr. felt like he was dreaming.

Is this still the ruthless boss who confronted his father indifferently?

Life finally suddenly became clear.

He who has been living under the shadow of his father can finally flex his muscles alone!

If it weren't for Jiang Chao's presence, he might have directly yelled that the boss is so handsome! !
"Don't get excited, I'll give you the first task, call the current rookie Stephen Curry, and let him come over low-key, I don't necessarily want him."

"Okay." Although he didn't know what the boss' intention was, Downey Jr. quickly agreed.

This small guard from a famous family is also one of the candidates his father wants to choose, and he is even more sure that Jiang Chao is hiding something!
I don't know if my father will go well in Phoenix, anyway, he doesn't regret it at all now!

"Then this year's second-round pick, you can make a form for me. It doesn't need to be very detailed. The format of name + position will do."

"no problem!"

Jiang Chao tapped the cap of the pen, and couldn't help smiling as he watched Downey Jr.'s vigorous footsteps.

In Chinese idioms:

Be a man to stay on the line and meet each other in the future.

It is mainly used for women, but it can also be used for basketball operations. He was promoted because of his ability and the deputy minister has resigned.

Not firing him because he won't do anything.

Later, because of this incident, it was reported by the media, and he gained a lot of popularity because of it.

10 minutes after Downey Jr. left.

The young teaching assistant walked over with a look of embarrassment on his face.

"Boss, Coach D'Antoni said that he will be recuperating in New Jersey for a while during the off-season. He said that he can talk to him about team affairs on the phone, and he will not return to the team for the time being."

"There are not many players in the Knicks. Does the boss have to let him come back?"

The young assistant also saw Downey Jr. who was excited to go out just now. They are all people who like to be more introverted. Seeing that he accomplished something but failed to complete the task, he was very annoyed.

This head coach, just say it and buy a plane ticket and come back right away.

So he was very afraid that Jiang Chao would scold him for being incompetent.

"No, I know."

Jiang Chao groaned.

Are you not coming back?

The smog in New Jersey is very heavy, practice a P!

If you think about it with your toes, you know that Mustache wants to find a way out for himself when the executives of the other 29 teams in the lottery are present.

The facts are similar. After Jiang Chao’s news reached D’Antoni at noon, he directly canceled his ticket and went to have a long chat with the general manager or owner or the head star who came to the hotel for the lottery.

"I don't know if his heart is still here."

Jiang Chao signaled the young coach in front of him to leave, and rubbed his temples himself.

To be honest, I really want to fire this mustache in a rage.

But rationality told him that it was normal for people to find a way out for themselves when they saw that the old manager had left.

And it was impossible for Jiang Chao to take the initiative to call him.

Because the moment he took the initiative to fight, it meant that he needed it, and he was at a disadvantage.

And he has plenty of coaching resources in his mind.

If he really wanted to resign voluntarily like Old Downey, he was a little bit reluctant.

After all, I also watched the game he coached, and with Harden's affection, it is no problem to stay as an assistant or consultant.

It depends on whether he is willing to lower one level.

Anyway, he was willing in his previous life, and turned from head coach to coach consultant several times.

"Let's talk about it after the draft."

Jiang Chao decided to wait.

This has something to do with the long-term plan he had been thinking about all night last night.

Compared with Downey, coach D'Antoni is really suitable for the current Knicks lineup.

The trading market will not close until next season's playoffs, and it is destined to be a protracted battle.

If you want to trade directly now, how much value can Duhon and Jeffries in the team, and the current strongest 175 Nate Robinson, be worth?Wilcox, Big Q, Larry Hughes, and Chandler are all headaches for Jiang Chao just looking at them.

There are also Tim Thomas, Eddie Curry, Jerome James, and Lord Luo, the three major injuries. The game circle joked that the NBA09 in 2009, the Knicks lineup, dogs don't play!

The whole world knows that the Knicks have trade value now, and they don't need Jiang Chao to operate, that is, Al Harrington and two white rookies, David Lee and Gallinelli.

Others must brush up enough data before leaving? ?
Now the Knicks don't have a heavy insider, and D'Antoni's 8-second fast break is just right, and he can generate good data to sell for money. The Americans don't have so much time to watch every game, just look at the data.

Rome was not built in a day, and Jiang Chao will not do it recklessly.

He will fight protracted battles in a long way. It is a good choice to play badly and play an 8-second ultra-fast attack to increase the transaction value of those who want to trade.

Otherwise, the current transaction value is limited, and the transaction space is limited.

Unless he has the strength of the richest man in Ross to pay the luxury tax without thinking, it will be difficult for him to achieve the desired lineup.

And in the long run.

D'Antoni's training for guards is also very good. He was a point guard known as a gentleman thief when he was a player, and he won many championships in the Italian league and was elected as the king of assists, scoring and steals.

And in his career, he also trained the Son of the Wind, Jeremy Lin, and later Harden well. In other words, magic ball and running and bombing tactics can be used as unique moves for several rounds or even a whole quarter.

I don't know if Curry under his training will be crazier.

Magic Ball almost defeated the five-star Warriors and entered the finals. This mustache is good at using guards.

And this year's draft is almost full of guards. Even if Harden, his future lover, is not selected, other guards can be trained by him.

Running and bombing magic balls all start from the defenders. The tactical concept of letting him train defenders is Jiang Chao's current idea. Take the essence!
He is definitely not competent as a head coach. On-the-spot, no more tactics, and superstars are all what he lacks. There are many more suitable head coaches than him in this era.

Jiang Chao didn't want to find someone with an awesome resume like the best coach of the year at every turn.

He is going to find someone with no experience, so that he can innovate and give it a go, and more importantly, he will trust the boss's requirements for them.

Think about it, if a young man is suddenly promoted to head coach, wouldn't he treat the boss as a reborn parent? ? ?

There are only 30 NBA head coaches in the world, and the moment they become a coach, they are all different, okay?

Steve Kerr, who thought of it before, counts as one.

Kaizi's marshal Stevens hasn't shown his true colors yet.

And the Spurs coaching staff has a bunch of wool waiting for him to come, the chief assistant Budenholzer, the king of Europe, Messina.
So it's okay if D'Antoni never comes back.

Eight-second fast break, I will also do a little.Jiang Chao thought of this and immediately drew a few tactics in the tactics book for fun.

The next morning.

When Jiang Chao was ready to receive a fax of the same resignation letter as Donny Walsh.

A man with short gray hair and a white mustache suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Chao's office.

Jiang Chao stopped the pen he was signing in surprise:

"Coach D'Antoni, did you turn your beard white overnight?"
