Chapter 17 It's All Mine
Chapter 17 It's All Mine
The tactics of the twin towers were determined, and the scouting department began to edit various Spurs game videos in 99.
Su Yang goes to the training base every morning at [-] o'clock in the morning and chooses to leave at [-] o'clock in the afternoon. He has been working for seven consecutive days.
In his spare time, he took the time to read the news and found that what happened in the off-season was no different from the original history.
Among them, Kobe is looking for a deal, and it is rumored that Garnett may join forces with him, while Ray Allen is rumored to be sent to the Celtics on the night of the draft, and the United Arab Emirates is rumored to only fight against chairs, which was tragically met with by many fans at home and abroad. ridicule.
As a scout for the Trail Blazers, Su Yang helped the UAE to clarify on domestic forums. As a result, many fans believed that he collected money and laundered it, so that he could fully understand what the limitations of the times are. Some things take many years to make a correct evaluation.
The NBA also announced a new slogan, 'A Miracle Is Happening' to replace 'I Love the Game'.
The major media have commented on this, believing that the NBA is about to enter a new era.
On the night of the 29th, he and his fellow scouts watched the 07 NBA Draft in front of the TV.
There was no accident in the No. [-] pick. Stern calmly read Oden's name, and the fans cheered.
The trade happened immediately, and the Blazers sent Randolph to New York in exchange for Boss Fry and Channing Frye.
"We will buy out Francis West's contract, and then look for a point guard with rich experience in the free market..." Bob said, "That is our next main task, is there any suitable candidate? "
"Steve Blake, he's an old acquaintance..."
Su Yang blurted out, because Blake played three ins and three outs in the Trail Blazers, which is quite special in the NBA.
The key is that Blake is indeed suitable for the current Trail Blazers, who can assist, score, and especially shoot three-pointers.
The defense is a little bit worse, but there is no way. There are only a few point guards in the league who defend better.
Bob thought for a while, nodded and said, "Good suggestion, I'll report it to Kevin when I get a chance."
During the chat, David Stern came out again on TV and calmly announced that the Supersonics chose Durant.
Regarding the selection of the first two picks, Chatford, an authoritative EPSN draft expert and the standard for T0 or T1 rookies, said that the Blazers made the right decision. Fortunately, the Blazers were not influenced by public opinion and chose Durant.
But the well-known ESPN commentator, Bill Simmons, who likes to brag and spread rumors, thinks that the Blazers have made another choice that regrets the entire history of the team in 84, and believes that Durant will definitely make the Blazers regret it for many years.
Afterwards, the selection of each pick proceeded step by step. The Suns chose Fernandez at the 24th pick. The Blazers immediately issued a trade request and successfully exchanged for Fernandez and James Jones with only part of the cash.
When ESPN announced the deal, although Su Yang knew about it, he still felt a little unbelievable.
This transaction is the most stupid operation by Steve Kerr as the general manager of the Suns.
After sighing, continue to watch the second round of the draft.
As he imagined, the Blazers chose Mike Roberts with the 39th pick, which he strongly suggested, and Derek Bayes, whom the coaching staff prefers with the 42nd pick, and Ramon Sessions was not selected with the 52nd and 53rd picks. Trading.
General manager Kevin's operation in this way can be regarded as saving face for both the scouting team and the coaching staff, and neither side needs to be frustrated.
More surprisingly, the Blazers exchanged Derek Bayes from the Philadelphia 76ers for Petricobonen.
And Petri happened to be under the guidance of Su Yang during his trial training in Orlando, and the cooperation between the two was very pleasant.
"Congratulations, your work has been recognized..." Old Bob patted Su Yang on the shoulder, "Keep working hard."
Other scouting colleagues also congratulated Su Yang. He smiled and thanked, and invited everyone to have a drink to celebrate.
That night, he returned to the Express Hotel in the early hours of the morning, not drunk at all, and won the title of wine king in the scouting department.
...
The draft came to an end, and Su Yang continued to edit the Spurs video step by step in the video room every day.
The work content is quite boring, but I gradually understand how the Spurs use Duncan efficiently, and I also want to understand why the Spurs used the twin towers tactic at the time-because Popovich's coaching level at the time was still relatively good, and no better tactic could be found.
On the morning of July [-], he rushed to the Trail Blazers training base as usual, ready to start a new day of work.
But the general manager Kevin stopped him at the door and dragged him to the training ground, saying that he wanted to familiarize him with the Summer League lineup.
"You don't know, I have signed many times in the past few days, Oden's first-round contract, Petrie's two-way contract, Mike Roberts' second-round contract, etc., Taoling Green's ten-day contract, and I met all the rookies ..."
Kevin paused for a moment, "What makes me curious is that many of them are asking if you will guide this summer league. Among them, Mike Roberts is particularly excited. He said that you let him find his career goal again."
"There is such a thing?" Su Yang was a little surprised, thinking that they didn't benefit too much.
"I was surprised too." Kevin chuckled, "Even Aldridge asked just now, why I haven't seen you for several days at the base this time, and I was worried that I would fire you, so I asked Bob Knowing that you're editing footage every day."
"Normal, you're busy too..."
The two entered the stadium while talking, and the coaching team was leading the rookies participating in the summer league to run tactics.
Su Yang glanced casually and found that rookies such as Mike Roberts and Petrie were galloping in the field, and players with NBA experience such as Adelaide and Webster were also actively fighting, but the focus of the audience was the No. [-] pick Oden.
With the Trail Blazers lineup, going to the summer league is a bully. If you don't win a game by more than 10 points, you are considered a loser.
The two walked to the side of the coaching staff, and Kevin said to McMillan: "Nate, I recommend Su Yang to join the summer league team. This group of rookies needs him, and he can just watch him in Las Vegas." This group of rookies."
"Su is already a member of the Summer United team..." McMillan shrugged, "He is responsible for designing tactics for Oden."
"No ..."
Kevin waved his hand, "I recommend him to join the team as an assistant coach to help Monty deal with some things."
As soon as Kevin finished speaking, Su Yang, McMillan, and Monty Williams were stunned at the same time.
Su Yang never expected that he would suddenly have something to do with his status as an assistant coach, and it was recommended by the general manager.
It is true that a person's destiny depends on both self-struggle and...
McMillan turned to look at Monty and asked, "What do you think? You're the head coach of the summer league."
"Okay." Monty's expression didn't change, "There are indeed a lot of things that need someone's help."
"Then arrange it like this." Kevin turned and walked away, "I still have work to deal with, you continue to chat."
Everyone nodded and watched Kevin leave, the atmosphere immediately became a little awkward, and no one continued to speak.
Su Yang looked up at the field, silently watching each player, and suddenly a ridiculous idea popped up in his heart.
"Except for Oden, Webster, and Rodriguez, this group of rookies seems to be all my people..."
