NBA: Start with 20 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 96
Chapter 96: The Uncomfortable Italian Plum Cannon
Jiang Chao didn't expect Ma Ge to play in the first game. Anyway, he would have to give him a contract. It's better to give him a contract earlier, and he can sell an extra favor.

Matthews is a tough and unyielding person in character, and he will fight against himself.

If you really want to sign him after the end of Summer League, maybe he has already performed well and was directly snatched away by other teams.

You must know that he, an academic defensive back, showed his strength after playing a few games in the Jazz. In the second year, the Blazers directly offered him the maximum salary + the highest signing fee. Take Roy's position!

So it will be over in 3 years!

If it weren't for the two-way contract for up to 3 years, Sean Marks would have wanted to sign more. The players on the two-way contract are NBA reserves. The reserve team is so stable in the first game of actual combat, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that his style of play is a solid academy. Pai, the upper limit is not higher than the lower limit, and the two-way contract will not lose money.

"What about Danny Green, Beverly, and Mills?"

Jiang Chao is more concerned about the second round, and their training period may be longer.

Sean Marks:
"I look at it from a fan's point of view, maybe there's something wrong with them."

……

"What? They took on the offensive mission? Didn't you tell them to do what they should do?"

"It is estimated that the young marshal wants to prove it, but it really doesn't work."

Sean Marks briefly talked about his feelings, that is, it was really uncomfortable for the three of them to touch the ball when attacking the position, and Beverly and Mills were better.

Danny Green couldn't handle the ball steadily and panicked.

"Except for Beverly, the other two don't touch the ball on the offensive end, they are not material for holding the ball."

Sean Marks has come into contact with new knowledge again, the shooting guard does not touch the ball, only a shooter?
Sure it will work?
Is it so coquettish, isn't it easy to defend if the four major shooting guards in the league face these people?
"They are recruited for defense and three-pointers, just practice tactical positioning."

Jiang Chao explained a few more words. It's not that simple. If you make good use of Danny Green and Mills, you will be exhausted to stick to their positions.

This era may not require a shooter to win the championship, but one or two top shooters will make it easier to win the championship, otherwise the space is too small.

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

But there are also many players who play fast, and Danny Green, who is good at assisting defense and good at running, can handle everything.

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

Jiang Chao rubbed his forehead. He knew what the coaching staff thought, that it might be possible to make up for the second round after the lottery was lost, but he knew that the two lottery could not be lost, so he could rest assured that the training would be over.

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

after one day.

Jiang Chao went to the training ground and heard the feedback from the young coach. He really wanted to try Green and Mills' ability to attack with the ball. The effect was impressive, so he just gave up and finished.

Jiang Chao also gave him the tactical manual he wrote:

"Don't spread the word, martial arts cheats, haha."

"Boss, you have already written how to use them!!" The young commander's expression was: Why didn't you give it to me sooner!
Compared with Jiang Chao's understanding of these veteran stars of later generations, it is naturally difficult for him, a coach who has been playing on college courts in the past few years, to figure out their style in such a short period of time.

However, their coaching staff thinks that the biggest problem is Gallinelli.

Gallinelli was not in high spirits in the first game last night, and Turkoglu couldn't find his place 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 marshal was speechless, but Downey Jr. spoke directly.

That is, although the lineup is confirmed, Gallinelli has always been frustrated with the boss after Turkoglu was recruited. In addition, he has never met him so much that he doesn't trust him, a tall kid who played well last year. Forward, after seeing that Jiang Chao didn't come, he played like sleepwalking for 8 minutes last night, ending with 4 points and 3 turnovers.

You know he was a lottery last year!

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

Jiang Chao said that it is difficult for him to do it. Watching the game puts pressure on the players. If you don’t watch the game, some players are crazy and like to show others.

Downey Jr.: "Boss, I suggest you communicate with Gallinelli. He is also our hope since last year. The template is Turk Drew. I don't know what you expect from him, but he emo (depressed) ) definitely can’t hit the ball well.”

"Then call him over."

"Got it!"

Downey Jr. and his father participated in the selection of Gallinelli throughout last year. They still wanted him to play this outside heavyweight.

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

He was not as excited as the rookies seeing Jiang Chao, so he said hello boss normally.

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

"I want to say that it was you, not Du Hong, who went to the Thunder. There are no unknown people in the team. I don't want to hear about any awkwardness and don't want to fight."

Knock the mountain and shake the tiger!

Little Downey next to him was almost scared to pee, this is too fierce!

And Gallinelli, who was also young, was also taken aback. He bowed his head and said nothing, his heart thumping:

"Okay... okay boss."

Since he was going to trade to the Thunder, why did he stay later?
After listening for more than ten seconds, Jiang Chao stared at him and said:
"Your task in the team is to attack the tough ones. Didn't you find that there is no breakthrough player like you on the front line? Last season, you showed me what fighting spirit is. The rest of the Knicks are just waiting to die. Just you Really wanted to win, that's something I saw, and I wanted to see that this year, that's why I kept you."

"Understood." Gallinelli nodded like a kid who did something wrong. Indeed, although his physical talent is not as good as that of the American striker, his tough style of play and his style of not afraid of muscle confrontation are still outstanding, that is, Italians don't have softies!

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

Jiang Chao gave chewing gum to eat at the end, which also relieved Downey Jr. Otherwise, if the chat continues like this, don't be scary if the next step is to put him on the shelf.

Gallinelli was also very kind at this time, he said directly what he wanted to say:

"I know, but I don't agree, 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 learn everything about him first!"

Then Jiang Chao walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder, said a last whisper beside him and left:

"He only has a two-year contract, seize the opportunity, the future is yours."

(The youth storm of Timberwolves and Grizzlies is fine, this is what a young team looks like.)
