From South China Tiger to NBA King

Chapter 43 "Who is that, come out and fight alone"

Danny Angie, who was on the sidelines, quietly watched Jianghu and Tatum's heads-up, silent...

He looked expressionless, but in his heart, a monstrous wave had already set off.

Jiang Hu is strong, he knows.

He also knows that the world is better than Tatum.

But he didn't expect that the gap between the two was so big.

Although only 4 balls were played, Danny Ainge has seen a lot in these 4 balls.

For example, the speed of the two is 5cm higher than Jianghu, who looks a size bigger overall, but the speed is faster, let alone the speed, the gap between the two is too big.

Tatum looks like a normal rookie, and Jianghu looks more like a mature star player.

Thinking of this, Danny Angie reached into his suit jacket pocket again, and took out the black leather notebook from the pocket.

He opened his notebook, and the moment he opened it, the first few pages were still stuck together.

Those who are more old-fashioned usually have this habit. They will not record things in their mobile phones and computers, but will write them in a notebook that they carry with them, so that they can be consulted and watched repeatedly.

This black book is Danny Angie's notepad. Angie calls it the big event book, and he usually writes it down in this notebook when he makes some important decisions.

Danny Angie opened the book, and the person recorded on the first page was the recently retired wolf king, Kevin Garnett. The date of the first record was February 2007, 2.

There are not many things written in the notebook, only a few hundred words of eloquence, and it does not occupy a page.

Character: Kevin Garnett.

Advantages: The soul of the defensive end, the team's passion maker, the leader who puts his enthusiasm into the game, and recasts the cornerstone of the Celtics' defense.

Exploitable Weakness: Loyalty, loyalty for decades.

Action goals: trade, probation, win over.Turn his loyalty to Minnesota into loyalty to Boston, do his best for the Celtics, help the team reshape the tough defense, and return to the championship ranks.

Judging from the date, Angie started planning to trade Garnett in February 2007, and it took half a year to plan before finally bringing him to the Celtics, forming the team with Pierce and Ray Allen. Big Three.

The old and cunning old fox started to plan the action early, and he completed his plan half a year later. In the days that followed, Garnett did his best to win the 17th championship for the Celtics. He was also very loyal to the Celtics and retired. In the future, he is willing to come back to guide the young players in the team in the off-season.

From this point of view, Angie's role in it is indispensable.

Danny Ainge continued to turn the book to the second page. The person recorded on it was the current head coach of the Celtics, Brad Stevens. The date of the first record was March 2012.

Advantages: Excellent court control ability, extremely fast adaptability, extremely rich tactical literacy, good at building an orderly team, and good at kneading a team.

Weaknesses: Desire to control, strong desire to control the team.

Goal: Sign the head coach, give him full autonomy, and use the position of president of basketball operations to tie him to the Celtics.

Brad Stevens is the helm that Angie carefully selected for the Celtics for several years. Angie plans to let Stevens coach first, and then give him the position of president of basketball operations in a few years. In the end, he slowly cultivated him into the godfather of the team like Auerbach.

After roughly flipping through the first two pages, Anji opened the book to the third page, took out the pen from the breast pocket of his jacket, bit the cap of the pen with his mouth, and hesitated for a moment...

In the end, I resolutely wrote "Jia Hu", and then wrote a comment at the back.

Advantages: super physical quality, super self-confidence, super psychological quality, with a cold-blooded killer temperament.

As for weaknesses and goals, Angie hasn't decided how to write it yet.

While Angie was studying his notebook, he was interrupted by a mess of voices from around him.

"Oh, brave young man!!"

"He really dares, isn't he afraid of being blown up?"

"I don't think he has no chance at all."

Listening to the discussion of the people around her, Anji frowned, not knowing what everyone was talking about.

He patted the shoulder of the team scout Forres, and Forres just pointed forward with his finger, without looking back at all.

Anji followed the gaze of Forrest's fingers and found the figure of Jianghu.

He saw that Jianghu was standing in front of Jimmy Butler at this moment, and the two of them opened up one-on-one and put on a heads-up posture...

"What happened? Why did they fight each other?"

Danny Angie was baffled.

Turn the time back to 2 minutes ago.

On the sidelines, Jianghu and Jeff Schwartz were chatting on the sidelines.

"Jiang, you performed so well today, you made me admire you!!"

Schwartz's face is full of joy. As a senior sports agent, Schwartz knows very well how many pairs of eyes are paying attention to the Jianghu in this field, and what this attention means.

"I predict that your pick will not be lower than the top five!!"

"It's even possible to hit the top three!!"

Schwartz's smile came from the heart, not fake.

He is really happy. If Jianghu can really reach this height during the draft, he will be very happy.

Jianghu shook his head and looked into Schwartz's eyes: "Jeff, I think you are too happy."

"Let me emphasize to you again, our goal is to become the No. [-] pick, not some top three, nor some top five."

"I hope that you and I have the same goals in this matter, otherwise we won't be able to cooperate for a long time."

Schwartz's smile was fleeting...

He really didn't understand why Jianghu was so obsessed with the champion.

"Your performance is good enough, but you are not the number one pick. The decision is really out of our hands!!"

Schwartz shook his head. From the beginning to the end, he felt that Jianghu's demands were too high.

This year is a big draft year, and the requirements of each team for the No. [-] pick in the draft are superstars. How can it be so simple to become the No. [-] pick?

"It's in their hands to make the decision, but if we don't do anything, how can we become the champion?" Jiang Hu asked again.

"Then I don't think you're doing enough now." Schwartz rubbed his hands and said nervously.

He was afraid that telling the truth would hurt Jiang Hu's enthusiasm.

Because Jianghu has done well enough, his performance today almost made him hit the top three from the lottery, but it is still difficult to become the number one pick.

"I don't think it's enough either." Jiang Hu said in a deep voice.

"I always felt like something was missing."

"Lack of final performance." Schwartz said after thinking about it.

"How to make a final decision??" Jiang Hu showed an interested look on his face.

"You need to show a performance that surprises everyone and makes everyone feel that you have to be the No. [-] pick."

"Oh? Do you have an idea?" Jiang Hu asked tentatively.

"No..." Schwartz shook his head. If he had an idea, he wouldn't be asked sourly by Jianghu.

"I have."

"What do you think of him?" Jianghu collected himself and pointed to Jimmy Butler who was watching from the sidelines.

"How about what?" Schwartz was at a loss, what do you want to do, kid? ?Don't you want to? ?
"Hit him!!" Jiang Hu fixed his eyes on Butler,
"You're crazy, Jiang!!" Schwartz turned pale with shock. He suspected that Jiang Hu's brain had gone awry.

"You can't beat him, don't be naive, he is an All-Star!!"

"You think I can't beat it??" Jiang Hu asked.

"Of course, how could you be his opponent!!" Schwartz looked nervous, trying to stop Jianghu's crazy thoughts.

"Then do they think I can beat it?" Jiang Hu pointed to the team management and coaches on the sidelines.

"No one thinks you can beat..." Schwartz raised his voice, his tone was sharp.

"Great, this is the effect I want!!"

After saying this, Jianghu looked excited, and strode directly to Jimmy Butler who was happily chatting with Steve Nash on the sidelines.

He rushed directly in front of Butler, and shouted at Butler like a stunned youth:
"Jimmy, come out and challenge!!"

for a moment...

Everyone around fell silent...

Behind him, Jianghu's agent, Jeff Schwartz, was dumbfounded...
