NBA: Start with 20 billion, buy the Knicks

Carlisle is also very sincere, he really wants to be the head coach of the Knicks.

At this time, Jiang Chao saw the young handsome standing beside him with disheveled hair, turned on the hands-free phone, and said with a smile:

"Well, Coach Stevens is here, young coach, how about you answer the phone."

After that, he threw the phone handsomely into Stevens' hand.

Chapter 44: Marshal VS Carlisle, youthful spirit!

Stevens was so frightened that he hurried forward to catch the phone with both hands.

? ? ? ? ?

The master and apprentice on the opposite side stared with wide eyes.

If it weren't for the boss's mobile phone, he would never want to pick it up.

This is not a mobile phone, this is a hot potato!

Jiang Chao's purpose in giving Stevens the phone at this time was simple.

Come and reject him!

It can also be regarded as an interview. In front of a playoff-level head coach who is good at planning and short on ingenuity, how will you compete with him?

It's the same as on the field.

If you become the head coach of the Knicks, sooner or later you will meet all kinds of coaches, and even a crazy old man like Carlisle's Mavericks predecessor Nelson.

Hayward is on the sidelines:

"Come on, say something harsh!"

It was Carlisle who spoke first:

"Brad Stevens?? I like your coaching style very much. You haven't been to the NBA yet. I suggest you practice under my banner for a few years so that you can monopolize the big banner."

Stevens was originally a refined and elegant coach with a great personality. He would not talk to each other, but he would understand it and said after hearing it:

"The old coach K from Duke University has never coached in the NBA, so he should also be an assistant coach?"

These words stunned Carlisle for a moment.

"Youth is not a disadvantage, it is an advantage. I have already agreed to Jiang Chao's boss's invitation. Please don't bother the boss anymore, unless you want to be a teaching assistant."

"You!! Are you too crazy, kid?"

"It's not madness, it's self-confidence." Stevens raised his chin, his eyes shining with confidence.

At this time, Jiang Chao couldn't stand listening anymore, and would start scolding if it went on like this, so he said directly next to him:

"How about it, Mr. Carlisle, I have already signed a contract with him, and it is a certainty. You two can simply make a bet."

"What bet?" Carlisle is having a hard time recently. It's okay to be bullied by the boss, but the younger generation is also bullying himself?

He is only 35 years old, and he is the best tactical expert in nba!

who are you?

Jiang Chao thought for a while:

"That's it. After next season, the record of the Mavericks and the Knicks will be compared. Next year's record is not as good as ours, so you just obediently come over and be an assistant coach, OK?"

Stevens nodded. Carlisle is known as a perpetual victor, winning more than 50% every season, but he is not timid, and has long been forced to become competitive.

Carlisle sneered in his heart, is that okay?Where does the confidence come from?

The Mavericks are in the Western Conference playoffs all the year round, what kind of hip-pull is your Knicks...Comparing a bad team with me?

So he also said:

"Then if you lose, I want Stevens to resign directly and say sorry to me in front of the media."

The stakes are high, and Hayward next to him tremblingly watched the bosses compete with each other. The NBA is such a tiger, it's scary to resign at every turn.

The Mavericks finished second in the Western Conference with 55 wins and 27 losses last season. Can Nima agree?

If you want to have this record in the East, then you can't be in the top 4 in the East? ?

Scary!

When he was about to stop the young marshal, he nodded directly:

"I agree!"

Stevens, who is only in his early 30s, has a youthful spirit and a loud voice.

"Okay, then we will wrong our future teaching assistant to blow cold wind in Dallas for another year."

Jiang Chao hung up the phone.

In fact, he is also gambling, but he is young, and young is fearless.

The Mavericks were really good last season, but it seems that the Spurs, Thunder, and Nuggets will all rush up next season, and the Mavericks' record will not be particularly good.

So this bet is really a bet on the direction of the two head coaches next year.

Either one will be demoted to become a teaching assistant, or one will resign and go home to farm!

It's no longer a joke!

"Brother Chao... really rejected Carlisle, why don't you pay him a lot of money? Harmony makes money!" Hayward was stunned. This scene really has the inner taste of young people, and both sides are crazy.

"You really think you can pull them over. He and Cuban are just playing tricks. It's impossible for the second coach in the West to be an assistant. In their position, reputation is more important than money."

Jiang Chao has seen through everything a long time ago. Carlisle will really agree to the head coach, but if he really becomes the assistant coach, what do Mavericks fans think?

Absolutely complain that he has neglected righteousness for profit, and abandoned his beloved disciple Nuo Tianwang for money.

You said it’s fine to change jobs to be the head coach. It’s really hard for the Knicks to refuse to poach someone, but it’s really disgusting to the fans to drop their status to become an assistant coach.

The smart Hayward was a bystander, and gave Jiang Chao a thumbs up beside him, the old capitalist!

The boss deserves to be the boss, this bet is only Jiang Chao who can't lose anything, No. 1 in the fire, and in the end, after a season, he got the introversion of the two head coaches.

It's really a little fox, let two elite coaches bet his career, and he is ignited.

Coach Stevens was blushing. After talking with the top coach, his heart was beating now, and his strength was also coming up:

"Boss, I want to sign the contract."

Say nothing, promise and it's over!

"I have seen your speech, and I will do my best to bring you a championship!! For the New York Knicks!"

"Ah."

Jiang Chao took out the contract, and Stevens didn't ask about the salary and the number of years. This is the confidence that belongs only to the young marshal.

He is not afraid of being laid off, because he will never fail!

In fact, the opinion of the family also accounted for the majority. His wife and his parents know how much he loves basketball. If you have a dream, go for it. The bosses will come to you and come to you, just go chase your dream!

Lao Lu's contract is 5 million for 935 years, increasing year by year. The follow-up team coaches have two options, that is, after the contract expires, the Knicks will give priority to matching the offers of other teams.

And Stevens can also opt out of the contract as a coach, with a high degree of freedom.

There is also a generous commission mechanism.

Stevens is also the rhythm of becoming a millionaire directly.

"Your lovely daughter can be brought to New York for kindergarten."

Jiang Chao was in pain for a while. Why did it increase year by year? On the one hand, everyone made such a contract, and it seemed that the annual income was a little bit more.

On the other hand, he doesn't have much money, and he has to pay for expenses until the regular season.

The remaining 1.2 million can only be slowly returned to make money after the ticket sales start. He has to save a little bit. It is not good not to sell the apartment before the start of next season.

He was very satisfied with Stevens, who signed the contract seriously, and he was confronted with Carlisle head-on, and he had an insider air.

This spirit is in line with the Knicks culture he wants to create.

Rot is contagious, and he can only stop it by uprooting it!

At 9 p.m., in the locker room of Schinkel Arena, the Butler University basketball team held an emergency meeting.

No one was absent.

Because everyone knows that something special happened today.

Coach Stevens was surrounded by students in the middle of the locker room, and Jiang Chao waited outside the door, swiping his phone.

Almost everyone present was crying.

"It never occurred to me that one day I would have to say these words..."

Stevens choked up, "next season, I will no longer be the head coach of Butler University."

Stevens, who has only cried three times in his life, cried three times today.

For Butler University, that day was the end of the world.

Hayward and other players hugged the young coach and bid farewell.

The sky is high and birds can fly.

Their young commander is about to step onto a higher stage, and they will watch him on TV later.

But no one thought that Jiang Chao's recruitment would make the Knicks' future soaring.

*(Note: Coach Stevens actually said these words when he left college for the Celtics.)

Chapter 45: Joining the team with capital

Jiang Chao had nothing to do outside, so the principal came to find him in person.

Jiang Chao understands all this, and I took your people, so of course it wasn't for nothing.

In the future, the Knicks will establish a friendly and cooperative relationship with Butler University. One player can be selected to play in the Knicks Summer League every year, and three players can come to the NBDL for trial training. This is already a big back door.

Thanks to the school leaders again and again, this is all performance!

I didn't expect this young man to be so good at being a man, so the school had to give a lot of publicity and praise.

Today's Butler University campus headline is:

"The Most Handsome NBA Boss Comes to School!Joined forces!I wish the young marshal all the best under Boss Jiang's banner! "

Then the student responsible for writing the article blew wildly.

The combination of an awesome boss and a young and promising head coach can achieve great things!

Oh open?

real or fake?

Because there is no news from the NBA and the Knicks official website.

The news that Butler University first came out was considered fake by many candidates who wanted to come to the Knicks as a coach.

"Probably because I haven't found a good coach yet." Rockets assistant coach Barnes has already booked a plane ticket, and he couldn't believe it would be so fast in the waiting hall.

"Impossible, I don't believe in signing the contract, it will take a while to make the contract, right?"

"There is a template for the contract, but it's just that Stevens is really the head coach. I'm a little bit unresponsive."

"Yeah, the former young head coach Carlisle was at least in the Trail Blazers. He was an assistant coach in the Mavericks. The trainer has experienced more than ten years. This is a head coach with no NBA experience..."

Even David Stern thought it was Jiang Chao's joke, shouldn't it be so fast?

While everyone was discussing, Liu Yan and others in the Knicks office who received the fax of the contract sent by Jiang Chao wanted to keep the boss's ears clean.

Work overtime to release the contract news on the Knicks' major official media.

More than 5 million in 900 years, and there are photos of signing the contract taken by Hayward!

The NBA league officials also released this news, and Ryan and others had no objections.

It doesn't matter who you choose, the important thing is that Jiang Chao really finished the selection in seconds after talking with them. This speed really makes people feel that he is picking a prize...

Ryan: "Mr. David, do you think he has really thought about it long ago?"

Stern: "Who knows, it's like a lottery ticket, in case it wins."
