Chapter 739 Lan Shengli's "Three Fires" (Part [-])
"Welcome all friends from the media to come here to participate in the team's new head coach's inauguration press conference~!!"

Inside the Clippers base, in the press conference hall, the vice president of the team was speaking as the speaker of the conference.

In the press conference hall, about 30 reporters from 100 media came to the press conference. They all wanted to get the latest news about Lan Shengli, the hottest figure in the NBA.

"Next is the Q&A session. If you have any questions, friends from the media, just raise your hands. Since we have limited time, we should try to ask as many questions as possible. If we can't take care of it, please forgive me~!"

Soon, it was time for questions.

Lan Shengli maintained his usual witty and humorous answering style.

"Then what are your goals for your future coaching career~?!"

This kind of question is what people who pay attention to Lan Shengli want to know most.

"Since the Clippers choose to believe in me and give me such an opportunity, I will definitely spend my future coaching career with the Clippers. As for the goal, I used to aim to become an NBA head coach. Now this goal has been realized. So I have to look at the problem with a longer-term perspective. Now I have a more ambitious goal, which is to lead the Clippers to the NBA championship~!! After all, this is the person who works hard in the NBA, and I want it the most. What I got~!!"

Lan Shengli said with great confidence.

"As for my personal honor, of course I want to get the best coach, because that will trigger the incentive clause in the contract and let me earn an extra 50 US dollars, haha~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to speak in a teasing tone.

Although it's a joke, it can be heard that Lan Shengli is quite confident in his journey as an NBA head coach~! !

The interview is still going on, and Lan Shengli also takes this opportunity to show himself as much as possible to everyone who wants to know him.

"What are your plans for the offseason~!?"

After the press conference, Lan Shengli followed the general manager back to his office.the latter asked.

"General manager, what do you mean by that~?! Do you have a plan~?!"

Lan Shengli asked back.

"Coach Bruce, you are the head coach of the team now, you should make some plans, you have to have this idea~!"

said the general manager.

"Yeah, maybe I'm not used to the feeling of being a head coach, just get used to it slowly~"

Lan Shengli sighed.

"With Harden and Johnson, this offseason must be seized~!!"

The general manager reminded.

"In fact, I have thought about this matter a long time ago. To be precise, it was during the summer league. At that time, I wanted to hold a mini-training camp during the offseason and invite the young players of the team to participate. First, let the players Let’s get to know each other, and secondly, I hope that the players will also get to know me, the new head coach~!!”

Lan Shengli replied.

"Well, it makes sense to say that. After all, you already know these players very well, but these players don't know you very well~!! Your coaching style, your tactical thinking, etc.~"

The general manager said.

"Yeah, so I want to take this opportunity to get in touch with the players~!!"

Lan Shengli responded.

"Okay, I agree with this idea, let's stay in the training hall of our base~!! Okay~?!"

the general manager asked.

"That couldn't be better, haha~!!"

Lan Shengli nodded and said.

In this way, a "mini training camp" proposed by Lan Shengli is about to begin.

This should be the first time that Lan Shengli has had close contact with these players, and it is also the first time that Lan Shengli has personally led the team for training since he took office.

About three days later, people like Harden, Hill, Jordan and others have come to the team training hall.

Watching them dribble the ball while talking and laughing for training is enough to show that the players have developed a good enough friendship and are familiar with each other enough.

But they should still be very unfamiliar with Lan Shengli.

"You should be very familiar with this Bruce, right? How is this person~?!"

Here Harden asked about Hill.

"Fortunately, he is a relatively approachable person~"

Hill replied.

"I really didn't expect that my first NBA head coach was a rookie like me, it's so ridiculous~!"

Harden shook his head, sighing.

It seems that Harden, who has grown a beard, doesn't have a good impression of Lan Shengli, the hero behind the scenes who chose him as the No. [-] pick and brought him to the Clippers.

However, Lan Shengli has seen this situation many times. Every time Lan Shengli can use his personality charm and coaching charm to resolve all this, so I don't have to worry too much.

While talking, Lan Shengli walked into the field wearing a training uniform.

There was only Lan Shengli and no other assistants.

"If there's no applause, I'm going to make a fuss~!"

Lan Shengli walked up to the players, looked at the expressionless players, and said.

"Papapa~!! Congratulations, Coach Blue~!!"

The good old man Hill clapped his hands and said.

"Crack, clap!!"

"Crack clap clap!!!"

"Clap~"

Seeing this, the other team members applauded accordingly.

But looking at that expression, it's not very catering, and it's rather helpless.

It seems that Lan Shengli's first problem as the head coach is to find a way to make himself accepted and accommodated by these players, just like he is accepted and accommodated by the NBA.

"I should be meeting many of you for the first time, so before the official start of the training camp, let me make a routine self-introduction~!"

Lan Shengli said.

"My name is Victory Blue, the new head coach of the team, because I have never been a head coach before, so unfortunately you have become my test subjects, haha~!!"

Lan Shengli said with a smile.

"Tch, do you think your speaking style is very humorous~?!"

Harden pursed his lips, shook his head, and said softly with disdain.

"James Harden, are you going to grow your beard longer than Baron Davis?!"

Lan Shengli seemed to have heard Harden's thoughts, and immediately stared at Harden and said.

"Whether or not to grow a beard, and how long it is is my right. Although you are my head coach, you shouldn't be able to control this matter~!"

Harden still rolled his eyes and said in a disdainful manner.

"I really don't care if you grow a beard~, but I want to remind you that the longer Baron Davis grows his beard, the more capable he is. I'm afraid that the longer your beard grows, the less likely you will be able to play. Don't look at you as the champion~!!"

Lan Shengli was also not to be outdone, and responded with a very sharp tone.

The training camp has not yet started, and there is already a strong smell of gunpowder between Harden and Lan Shengli.
