"Boss, you said you want the draft pick in 2009, plus your own, we now have three, basically all of them are lotto."

Jerry West boasted himself proudly.

Case raised his thumbs up with a smile on his face. He was amazing. The other two looked at Jerry West in admiration.

"I'm very curious, how did you get the Grizzlies to agree to this deal? And how did you do salary balance?"

Jerry West's mysterious smile:

"This is the secret of my survival in NBA."

He didn't want to say that Case could guess a little, so he could refer to Auerbach of the Celtics.

Who believes that Jerry West left the Grizzlies without leaving the team?

It probably won't take long before the Grizzlies will come to work in the Knicks.

However, the biggest feature of this is that Stern agreed to the deal, and West was really powerful to allow Presti to hand over the cornerstone of the team building.

"Why did Supersonic agree to make a deal?"

Jerry West couldn't help but smile:

"This is a coincidence. Boss, you said you wanted Kevin Durant. I actually looked forward to him very much, but I didn't expect anything.

But I found a problem, Kevin Durant and the Thunder have not signed a contract yet."

Keith was stunned. Is the timeline changing again?

Generally, rookies will sign contracts in a few days in the draft, not to mention that Xiao Du is the second best.

"So I found Kevin, the young man, and invited him to the Knicks. He was very moved, so..."

Case understands, he insists on going to the Knicks and not signing with the Thunder.

This kind of thing is not without precedent. Francis is the same when he goes to the Rockets, but this kind of thing is very rare. If he doesn't do it well, he will have no ball to play.

But isn't He Jerry West involved in it? Seeing that the situation was wrong, Xiao Du insisted on leaving and had to change something and come back.

Moreover, everyone is not very optimistic about him, and he is too thin. Oden is the one who is paying attention to him.

As for why Xiao Du was moved, the Knicks had a new boss. The general manager was Jerry West, the famous NBA boy, who is now thriving!

Moreover, the Knicks are the largest NBA football market, and now the NBA is more than the only one who is attracted to the Knicks.

It is estimated that James will come to New York in 10 years, but it is still a big chance that Case will say whether he wants to play the Youth Storm.

"Have you signed a transaction contract?"

"I just signed it yesterday, and the alliance has passed the filing today. I just notified you to come and announced the press conference in the afternoon.

Boss, you have got all the Kevin Durant and the draft picks you want. I am ready to take the next move, and I also need your advice from the boss."

Jerry West is actually not that obedient and does whatever he wants. He is considered a relatively strong general manager.

The main reason is that Case's strategy coincides with his. If you want to rebuild, you can save draft picks. Inviting superstars to come is not strictly his style.

What he likes most is to choose his beloved little guys and then watch them play out. What he cultivates himself is true love for him.

Kevin Durant is also very optimistic, so the two of them naturally have no differences.

Moreover, he is weak and can safeguard the boss's dignity. Case is not in charge, but he, as the general manager, has to find enough face for Case.

What is this called repaying love.

"Jerry, I'll give you a bonus."

Case was very happy. Jerry West himself didn't know how important things he had brought, and he didn't open his eyes like Case.

Jerry West laughed happily, too:

"The boss adds the bonus, which is of course good. By the way, Kevin Durant will be training in the arena now and prepare to sign the contract in the afternoon."

Case nodded:

"See you then."

There is no hurry to sign the contract. Just do it before the press conference. If you pretend to be in the press conference, you will be able to run away if you get the signing rights.

Case stood up first and walked out the door. Several assistants outside the door quickly stood up. Jerry West was old and could not help but lose energy, so he had a little more assistant.

Case waved:

“Go to the court.”

An assistant prompted:

"Boss, here."

There was no assistant asking Jerry West for advice, they were Jerry West's assistants, but they were still Case's employees.

Case is the boss, he pays his salary!

Case walked in front, Jerry West was half a step behind, two vice presidents followed behind Jerry West, and assistants followed the last.

"Jerry, there are not a few days before training camp. Are you going to get the coaching staff next?"

"Yes, my goal is Rick Adelman."

Case pondered, Adelman was really good, he played Princeton tactics, and this tactic was also developed by him.

The characteristics of this tactic are human movement, ball movement, coordination and consistency, a large number of unball movements, empty cutting, passing, and back-running, which is very ornamental.

And this tactic is very suitable for his future team lineup planning.

The final players of his team are center Marc Gasol, former Kevin Love, former Kevin Durant, point guard Klay Thompson or Danny Green, and point guard Stephen Curry.

These five people are the perfect executors of Princeton's tactics.

Even now, there is David Lee in the inside, and he is very suitable.

But Adelman won't build a defensive formation and be equipped with a defensive assistant?

Pulling him over is considered saving Yao Yao in disguise?

Yaoyao is not suitable for Princeton, and a large number of running without the ball is simply abolished.

"I actually have two candidates. I think you can observe it. Even if you can't be a head coach, you can still be an assistant coach."

"Boss, tell me."

"The first one, Brad Stevens, the young marshal of Indiana Butler University.

He likes to discover new players and train potential players, and can use the least ingredients to make the best dishes.

He can enable ordinary players to maximize their strength and be disciplined. These two points are very good. You should know that this is New York, so there are not too many temptations.

He is selfless and loves basketball very much. He gives up a good job with an annual salary of 100,000 yuan and becomes a basketball volunteer without money. This is what he does.

His love helped to create the culture of unity that I wanted to see.

The head coach who has a rich tactics and attaches importance to basic skills and defense.

In the eyes of others, his biggest disadvantage is probably that he is young, but for me, this is his advantage.

The other person is Mark Jackson, you should know that he just retired in 2004 and should now be an assistant coach at the Warriors."

Needless to say, the young coach went to the Celtics, and after he went to the playoffs every year, he led ordinary players to the Eastern Conference Finals when the star was reimbursed for the season.

Moreover, the cold-blooded general manager of Celtics, Anji, who changed coaches every few days, did not change coaches for seven or eight years, and finally replaced him as the president of operations, which shows his strength.

Become a coach first and then take over Jerry West's class, which is so wonderful.

As for Mark Jackson, he has little reputation, but he only needs to know a little. He is the head coach of the Warriors from 2011 to 2014.

The Warriors' winning lineup was slowly built up, and then he was fired and Kerr picked the peaches.

"Okay, I'll go to inspect them these two days, and Adelman is likely not to come, even if there is Kevin Durant.

He is getting older and older like me. He is now thinking about the championship. We will play a bad year this year, so he probably won't come.

My final plan is that after he doesn't come, he will just find a coach and then look for it next year.

Now you can consider this young coach and use one season to examine his level."

Case laughed:

"You are making things difficult for him to perform well and not make it to the playoffs!"

Jerry West laughed and spread his hands:

"How can a young man be in the position without some ability?"

————The group came to the stand on the second floor of the training hall and looked at the thin pole below. The more I looked at it, the more I liked it.

Although he is just a brick mover now and his temperament has not evolved into a contractor, he can't stand the love of Case!

"It's really good, right?"

Jerry West and the others nodded with a smile, and Isaiah Thomas curled his lips.

In his era, this figure was broken as soon as it touched.

Case looked at Durant who was practicing shooting for a while and looked back at Isaiah Thomas:
