NBA Legends Manager

Chapter 6 Thunder!Thunder!
The next day, Lin Zuo appeared on the homepages of major sports websites, all of which reported Lin Zuo's outrageous remarks on the night of the draft. The following comments on each website's news about Press ranged from a few thousand to tens of thousands. For a while, Lin Zuo became popular.

At this time, Lin Zuo was flying back to Seattle. Lin Zuo tried his best to recall the 08 Summer League in his previous life. At that time, the name should have been changed to the Thunder, and he should have participated in the Orlando Summer League.

But this time, Lin Zuo plans to let the Thunder only participate in the Las Vegas Summer League in the future, because the Las Vegas Summer League is the largest in scale and influence, and the rookies can show themselves to the outside world.

A few hours later, Lin Zuo got off the plane and went straight to the supersonic boss's office.

After seeing Lin Zuo, the boss got up and laughed loudly, "You're really famous this time!"

Lin Zuo smiled and said, "You will become more famous in the future."

"Haha, let's get down to business." Clayton straightened his face and said, "Seattle and I have already negotiated to move the Supersonics to Oklahoma City on July 7rd.

We will leave the original name and colors of the team to Seattle. At that time, we will become a new team, so we need to rebuild the team, including the name, color and team culture. Do you have any good suggestions? "

Lin Zuo froze for a moment, it seemed that he still had a little butterfly effect. In his previous life, these things should have been built long ago.

However, Lin Zuo was very excited at this time. After all, he remembered everything about the Thunder. Now I will propose these things, so that he is one step closer to the legendary manager. After all, building a team is basically not done by the manager.

Lin Zuo will pick up a pen and write down all his memories of the Thunder team based on his previous life memories.

Lin Zuo was an artist in his previous life, so the team logo and mascot were also drawn.

Clayton, with a face full of disbelief, hurriedly picked it up and looked at it, dancing with his hands and feet while watching, and muttering: Perfect! Perfect!
Lin Zuo covered his forehead, can you imagine a big fat man dancing awkwardly by your side?

"Boss, I haven't matched the team logo and mascot yet, so stop dancing!" Lin Zuo was extremely helpless.

"Oh! That's right" Clayton then called in the assistant outside the door and ordered to buy a marker pen immediately.

After getting the marker, Lin Zuo matched the colors of the team emblem and mascot based on his memory.

As soon as Lin Zuo finished, Clayton quickly pulled out the paper, and immediately ordered his assistant: "Call a meeting"!
An hour later, the meeting room was full of shareholders and executives of the team. Clayton said without any nonsense, "Everyone already knows that we are about to move from Seattle to Oklahoma to become a new team. Everything about the new team, Presti! You come!"

Lin Zuo, who had already prepared, walked to the screen and showed the team logo and mascot that had just been completed.

Then he said: "The name of the new team is the Oklahoma City Thunder. The team chose blue, red and orange as the representative colors of the team. Blue comes from the colors of the state flag of Oklahoma, while red and orange represent the colors of the sunset. THUNDER is on top, OKC is in the middle, and two lightning bolts in the middle pass through the orange-red shield, which is the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The mascot is The Bison, the largest mammal in North America. It is huge and fast, implying the power of our youth. I believe that the unique wild image will definitely be loved by the people of Oklahoma. "

"Crack! Crack! Crack!" Just as Lin Zuo finished speaking, the conference room burst into applause.

Clayton stood up and said, "Before July 7rd, I don't want anyone to spread the content of today's meeting. The meeting is over!"

After the meeting, Lin Zuo was called into the office by the boss again, "Are you really so confident in the rookie you selected?" Clayton looked suspicious.

"Of course, boss, I'll let you see the summer league." Lin Zuo's face was full of confidence.

"Oh, by the way, I plan to let the Thunder only participate in the Las Vegas Summer League in the future," Lin Zuo thought for a while and said.

"OK, Presti, you decide"

"Then I'll prepare." Lin Zuo was ready to think about the lineup and coaches for the summer league.

Lin Zuo listed all the current Supersonic players and 08 rookies on paper. First of all, five rookies must participate. Although Durant and Jeff Green have been tempered for a season, their skills still have flaws, so he is ready to let them participate.

In this way, there are 7 people on the big roster, and the rest are ready to find a few undrafted picks and international players to fill up the number. Anyway, only garbage time will appear.

As for the coach, Lin Zuo intends to use Scott Brooks directly, and will not continue to use PJ Carlesimo until the start of the new season like in his previous life.It can be said without hesitation that the success of the Thunder draft in the previous life was due to potential, but the training of Brooks definitely played a vital role.

Thinking of this, Lin Zuo directly ordered to fire PJ Carlesimo, and at the same time called Brooks.

When the phone was connected, Lin Zuo didn't greet him, and said directly, "Brooks, I'm Presti, can you come to my office?"

"Ah, yes, manager." Brooks quickly agreed when he heard that he was the general manager.

In the office, Presti met Brooks, the man who had maximized the potential of Thunder rookies in his previous life.

"General Manager, what's the matter?" Brooks asked anxiously.He was wondering if he should be cut off.

"Brooks, although you are only an assistant coach now, I appreciate your ability very much, so I decided to let you be the head coach." Lin Zuo looked at Brooks with a smile.

"Ah!" Brooks was surprised. He never dreamed that Presti trusted him and let him be the head coach. He served as the head coach for 7 years, and he dreamed that one day he could be the head coach to realize his dream of being a champion coach.

"Really...really, general manager?" Brooks' face was full of surprise that his dream had come true.

"Brooks, don't rush to be happy, the summer league is coming soon, I want you to be the head coach of the summer league, and then win the championship, so I can explain it. After all, I cut PJ Carlesimo for you." Lin Zuo's tone seemed unquestionable.

"Summer league champion?" Brooks clenched his fists and said solemnly: "I will not disappoint your trust. If I don't win the championship, I will never be the head coach."

"Haha, there's no need to do this. Even if I can't get it, I will still let you be the head coach. I believe in your ability." Lin Zuo said as he pulled out a folder from the side drawer and handed it to Brooks.

"Here is the information about our team's Durant, Jeff Green, and this year's draft. The last page is about the technical characteristics and development direction of these people. I hope you will read it carefully.

And what I said in the draft is serious, each of them has the potential of an All-Star, and I hope that the summer league can let everyone see their shocking performances in the league.

Well, you go get ready. "

Holding the folder, Brooks suddenly felt the weight on his shoulders, took a deep breath, and said seriously, "I won't let you down."

　Newcomers and new books are looking for collections, so I recommend them. There are too many things today, so I posted it so late. I apologize to you!I'll let you know in advance next time.
