Chapter 125 Scouting Assistant
Ever since Lan Shengli discovered that he had the talent to coach basketball, he was very eager to be recognized for his "unique talent".

But for a long time, he never got such an opportunity, either because he was rejected for the interview, or because others felt that Lan Shengli was simply "nonsense".

A person who doesn't have any basketball-related professional knowledge at all, just an ordinary "fan" status, dares to become a basketball coach~! ?This is indeed a bit of fantasy.

Fortunately, Lan Shengli also has good luck. With the help of Maggette, Lan Shengli is now interviewing the Clippers.

Under the "bombing" by a group of executives, Lan Shengli was not afraid of danger, and explained his thoughts on the Clippers with his own unique insights time and time again.

"Use the background of the big ball market to form a superstar lineup~~"

And put forward this point of view.

"Hahaha~~, what a joke, the Clippers haven't had any superstars since the establishment of the team~!!"

The assistant coach seemed to have grasped Lan Shengli's "handle" again and laughed.

"The reason why superstars didn't come to the Clippers is because your thinking is too solid~~"

Lan Shengli immediately retorted.

Perhaps he had also entered the state, Lan Shengli didn't care who the other party was, he just spoke bluntly.

"You~!? What do you mean~!?"

The assistant coach was a little irritated by such "sarcasm".

"Because you dare not try to get superstars, those superstars will not come to the team. Only after you try, will you know who will come, and then you will know the influence of the big market of Los Angeles~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to explain.

"Okay, then tell me, how can a superstar choose the Clippers~!?"

After hearing this, the general manager immediately continued to ask questions.

"This is about the topic I mentioned before. Regarding the team's planning, I don't think there is any need to make too many changes at the moment. We only need to slowly trade a few key players of the team. Or after the contract expires, just ask him to look elsewhere~~"

Lan Shengli seemed a little tired from standing, and walked on the "stage" while talking.

The look of strolling in the courtyard feels like giving a speech.

"Then haven't we become a big team~!? Could it be that we can't rebuild~!? After years of hard work, we finally formed a lineup that can compete for the playoffs. Are you tearing it down~!?"

The vice president immediately continued to question.

"Look, even you know that the team's current roster is capped in the playoffs, and it has no qualifications to compete for the championship at all, so I say that the situation of such a team that can't compete is the most embarrassing, unless you I don’t want to compete for the championship, I just want to keep the team competitive and sell more tickets~~”

Lan Shengli still responded immediately.

"Okay, okay, let's wait for a while before asking questions, first let him talk about how to build a team~!?"

Seeing this, the general manager immediately spoke, as if the general manager had gradually approved of Lan Shengli.

Seeing what the general manager said, Lan Shengli continued.

"Then I will continue with the previous topic. What I mean is not to send away all the main players of the team. Every team is not composed of superstars. Those reliable role players are more important. , so I think the most important thing is to send away some players with more immediate combat power, or more valuable players, in exchange for some high-ranked draft picks. The NCAA draft players in the last three years and some top high schools in the United States I also have some research on raw players. I think if I can get two to three lottery picks in the next two to three years, or a higher pick, I think the possibility of picking a cornerstone player is very high. , With cornerstone players, there is a foundation for building a team, and you can continue to recruit and build a team around it. There is a saying: If you are in full bloom, butterflies will come, just like the Lakers dynasty that won three consecutive championships before. Kobe Bryant was introduced, and O’Neal was introduced, so hegemony must be achieved~!!”

Another long speech by Lan Shengli made the general manager unconsciously nod.

"Although I said some very easy-to-understand truths, I didn't expect that it really made people feel bright, and suddenly became more enlightened about the future of the team~~"

The general manager sighed.

"It can also be seen that this guy has really prepared seriously, and he has studied all high school players~~~"

The general manager continued to sigh secretly.

"Actually, having said so much, I feel that there are some things that I really shouldn't say, but once I get emotional, I have to say them. I hope that the leaders will forgive me. If there are any mistakes, please give me advice~! !"

Seeing that the four people did not respond again, Lan Shengli continued.

"Oh, it's okay, it's good, so let's study it, you take a rest first, okay~!"

As the general manager said, the other three executives left the meeting directly.

Seeing this, Lan Shengli nodded.

The general manager also left quickly.

Lan Shengli was the only one left in the "Home Theater".

"Huh~~~, I haven't said so many words in a long time~~"

Seeing this, Lan Shengli quickly sat down and sighed.

"They went out at this time, it should be the position they arranged. After all, the interview has been going on for so long, and I haven't heard them talk about the position of the interview. I know they will not give me the job of the coaching staff. After all, they are all descendants of the old Dun Levy, I can't interfere at all, and I can't go directly to the management like Byron, after all, the personnel relationship there is more complicated~~Let's see~~, what will it be? What kind of position~!?"

Lan Shengli analyzed.

Soon, only the general manager returned to the interview room.

"Huh~!? Where are the other leaders~!?"

Seeing this, Lan Shengli stood up and asked.

"Those people have other things, and then I'm the only one~~"

The general manager sat back to his original position and said.

"That's right. We also communicated for a while before, and I also have a certain understanding of your business ability. As for the current team, it can indeed be said that it is full of talents. The position of the coaching staff may really be helpless. I can make room for you~~"

"As expected~~"

Hearing this, Lan Shengli sighed inwardly.

"But at present, we do have a vacancy for a position, and this is considered a relatively important position. If you think it's okay, maybe you can prepare for further interviews~~"

said the general manager.

"Okay, no problem. In fact, I have always come here with an open-minded attitude of learning. Any position is good~~"

Lan Shengli thinks very simply, it seems that as long as he can enter the Clippers, he will be fine.

"Since you also said before that you also have some research and analysis on college players and high school players, we are going to offer you a job as a scout assistant~~What do you think~!"

The general manager solved the mystery.
