Chapter 1322 Can be replaced at any time

"I said that I will temporarily put aside the reason for returning to NBA coaching, and there is another reason~"

At Lan Shengli's home, under Mia's questioning, Lan Shengli explained why he put aside the interview for the head coach position offered by multiple teams.

"Because this year is the Olympic year~!"

"I want to return to the Chinese men's basketball team. I want to fulfill my previous promise. I want to follow the Chinese men's basketball team to the Olympics~!!"

Lan Shengli explained straightforwardly.

"The Olympic Games, which come only once every four years, is the biggest event in the sports world. It is an honor in itself to have the opportunity to participate in it, and it is an incomparable honor to be able to represent one's motherland~!!"

Listening to Lan Shengli's excited and proud tone, you can feel his urgency and firm attitude towards playing for the country.

"I support you, dear~!!, I will be very proud to see you fight for the country, very proud~!!"

Mia said.

With Mia's support, I believe Lan Shengli's trip to the national team will be smoother.

As for the Chinese team, they have actually already started their plans to prepare for the Olympics.

However, they did not clearly announce the candidate for the head coach.

Even though Deng Huade has been leading the team, everyone who knows the Chinese men's basketball team knows that the position of head coach of the team has always been reserved for Lan Shengli.

And Deng Huade didn't seem very embarrassed about this situation, he still led the Chinese men's basketball training team dutifully and responsibly, preparing for the Olympic Games.

After all, when no one trusted Deng Huade, it was the CBA and Chinese basketball that gave him the opportunity to prove himself.

Therefore, although Deng Huade has become a "spare tire" now, he is still working hard without complaint or regret. It is indeed admirable for an American to have such a sentiment and professional attitude.

While speaking, Lan Shengli had already arrived in BJ by plane.

Back to the motherland.

Lan Shengli, who was alone, walked low-key in the crowd without being recognized by anyone.

Then directly into the commercial vehicle prepared by the Basketball Association.

For the Chinese Basketball Association, Lan Shengli is a veritable "VIP".

Taking the commercial vehicle prepared by the Basketball Association, Lan Shengli went directly to the dormitory of the State Sports General Administration.

The single-room apartment is ready for Lan Shengli.

Because it was already very late, the officials of the Basketball Association didn't say anything more to Lan Shengli, but just reminded Lan Shengli to go to the men's basketball team to report tomorrow morning.

Although he is a "VIP", he still has to abide by the rules.

"Don't worry, dear~, everything is going well~!!, you have to take care of yourself, and look forward to meeting again in London~!!"

Lan Shengli called Mia before going to bed and said.

"Yeah~, good night, dear~!!, see you in London~!"

Mia responded.

It sounds like Mia is very confident about going to London next.

Then we will wait for the "CP" pair of Lan Shengli and Mia to meet again at the London Olympics~
While speaking, Lan Shengli had already come to the Basketball Association and officially completed the report.

As a senior consultant, Lan Shengli talked with interim head coach Deng Huade about the team's preparations.

"When I saw you coming, I knew that I had entered the countdown in the Chinese team, haha~!!"

Deng Huade looked at Lan Shengli and said with a smile.

It can be heard that Deng Huade's mentality is still very good.

"Be a monk for a day, hit the clock for a day, and now you are still the head coach of the men's basketball team~!!"

Lan Shengli responded.

"Haha~, maybe it won't be tomorrow~!"

Deng Huade continued to sigh.

"Then let time tell all of this~"

Lan Shengli smiled and responded.

After saying hello, the two began to "handover".

First of all, of course, explain the current composition of the players in the training team.

After all, this is the "post-Yao Ming" era, and the Chinese men's basketball team competed in the Olympics for the first time.

However, compared with the previous Olympic Games, the main players such as Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi, Liu Wei, etc. are still in the team, so, except for Yao Ming, the rest of the main players are still there.

But without Yao Ming, the Chinese men's basketball team would have no backbone, and that would be difficult.

Therefore, it is even more necessary for Lan Shengli to stand up and lead the current Chinese men's basketball team to move forward.

During the conversation, Lan Shengli had already communicated with Deng Huade, and then came to a small room with several officials of the Basketball Association to chat.

"Everyone is expecting you to be the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, and we are looking forward to the early arrival of this moment~!!"

Basketball officials said.

"I'm also looking forward to it, but I think it's not good to directly replace coach Deng Huade now~?! After all, Deng Huade wants to know this team and these players better than me~ Maybe I can be the coach. Assistant coaches can also help the team~!"

Lan Shengli responded.

It sounds like Lan Shengli still can't bear to directly replace Deng Huade.

"Then, or we can let Deng Huade be the assistant coach, and you be the head coach~!!, isn't it the same~!"

Officials responded.

"You and I both know that although the assistant coach and the head coach are both coaches, the situation is very different. The head coach has the absolute right to speak and can completely instill his own ideas into the team, but the assistant coach is always a As an auxiliary coach, I think it's really a bit of a shame to let you be an assistant coach~!!"

Officials responded.

"And we have communicated with Deng Huade before, and he also knows the possibility of being replaced at any time, so you can rest assured ~, no problem ~!!, you can replace Deng Huade at any time ~!!"

The official continued.

"Moreover, this replacement is not only a symbolic nature, but also a long-term plan we have made for Chinese basketball~"

The official continued.

"If you want the men's basketball team to develop well in the post-Yao Ming era, you must have a coach who can lead and coach the team for a long time. We have seen your achievements in the NBA and the Clippers. Today's men's basketball team is different from what it was three years ago. The Clippers are very similar, I believe you can lead the men's basketball team like the Clippers, regroup, and help our men's basketball team complete the reconstruction~!!"

The official continued.

Lan Shengli listened and became silent.

"Not only that, we also hope that you can make more contributions to our Chinese men's basketball team and contribute your own strength to Chinese basketball~!!"

The official continued.

Lan Shengli listened and nodded again and again.

Didn't say anything.

Perhaps the words of the official can make Lan Shengli stop hesitating.
