Chapter 301
Chang Wei is very glad that he is not a head coach, let alone a football star, so he doesn't need to make some disguises when he travels, but can openly travel with Harmon to various places in the United States. The 76ers won the championship and the team owner was very generous to give each member a large bonus, which is completely enough for the expenses during the trip.
Basically, this is the only time every year that Chang Wei stays away from basketball. The NBA season is over, and the NCAA ends earlier. Now he can’t even find a game of basketball, unless he is willing to go to New York to see their street basketball. .But in fact, although the overlords of the streetball world can abuse NBA stars to the scumbags on the street, they are not suitable for professional basketball, because they prefer to fight alone rather than pursue cooperation with teammates. Moreover, it is difficult for them to become the league's top scorers and singles maniacs, so their singles play is unbearable for any head coach.
So this trip has nothing to do with basketball at all. Chang Wei and Harmon's footprints are almost all over the famous cities and scenic spots in the United States.Originally, Chang Wei hoped that his parents would come to the United States to play again, but when Hao Sufen knew that Chang Wei was with his girlfriend, she forcibly suppressed her wife who wanted to go out for a walk, and asked Chang Wei and Harmon had a good time on the holiday, and both inside and outside the words told Chang Wei to take his girlfriend home to have a look, which made Chang Wei a little dumbfounded.
Any vacation goes by quickly, and this time is no exception. Chang Wei received a notification from Brown within a few days after returning to Philadelphia. The topic is signings and draft goals during the offseason.Of course, he was the first to notify Chang Wei. Although Mason's performance last season was mediocre, whether it was Reed, Lewis or Mutombo all proved his vision of seeing people. This time Brown hopes that Chang Wei will continue to propose A substantive suggestion is to specify the exact goal for the team's offseason signings, so that I can save a lot of trouble.
When Chang Wei walked into the meeting room, everyone looked at him expectantly, including head coach Brown and head scout Francis.Chang Wei knew what they meant, but he still jokingly said, "What's the matter? Do I have flowers on my face? If not, why are you all looking at me like this? I will feel very nervous..."
Everyone laughed. Originally, some people felt a little sour towards Chang Wei, but now his witty words melted away their negative thoughts very well.Brown nodded at him, smiled and said: "Chang, everyone already knows your vision, so we all want to hear your suggestions for our team's offseason signings, just like you did last summer." .”
Francis also said: "I admire you very much, Chang. I couldn't believe it when Brown told me that you suggested choosing Michael. To be honest, I have been doing scouting for many years, but this time I also looked away. Eyes, I didn’t expect you to pick such a guy from the second-round pick. Although the league gave Allen the FMVP in the end, he deserves this award even more.”
Chang Wei bowed to everyone and said with a smile: "Thank you very much for your trust in me. I think we must list our needs first, and then look for transaction targets. My own thoughts may have What I missed, so I hope everyone can help me find the missing and fill in the gaps, and help the team become stronger together, and it will be even better to win a few more championships."
Then Chang Wei said his thoughts again. In fact, the team's reinforcement direction is almost the same as last year. They are all inside and bench seats, but soon someone raised a question: "Chang, Dikembe played well last season. Excellent, I remember his numbers were 12.3 points, 11.1 rebounds and 2.3 blocks? Why do we have to get a center?"
Chang Wei shook his head, and said to him: "Jim, it's hard to explain the specific reason, I can only tell you that Dikembe is in the process of declining through my observation, and he has...hell, God knows what he is this year. How old is this year, we can't always count on him to help us protect the rim, so we need a younger insider."
The coach called Jim by Chang Wei bowed his head and thought for a while, then nodded to Chang Wei. Mutombo's age is indeed a problem. Although he performed well last season, no one can guarantee his state this season, and the introduction of a center more insurance.
Brown thought for a while and added: "If possible, I hope to enhance the defensive ability of the bench, especially the backcourt and flanks. Although George is also a pure defensive player, it is not enough in my opinion..."
Chang Wei smiled helplessly. Although the 76ers relied on offense to win most of the time last season, and used a purely offensive lineup of three guards in the finals tiebreaker, Brown is still a defensive head coach at heart. This can be seen from the fact that he dared to replace Lewis with Bell in the tiebreaker. He would rather sacrifice an offensive player who averaged 15+ points per game to improve the team's defense. At this time, it seems very reasonable to suggest the introduction of defenders. normal.
After unifying opinions, everyone began to talk about suitable candidates. Of course, the names reported by many people were those little-known role players. After all, the 76ers don’t have much leverage to introduce another star. .Although they can directly dismantle the championship lineup, this is not what the team management wants to see. Brown does not want his team to experience huge turmoil. Reinforcement at the smallest cost is their first choice, but If they really need to pay a certain price, they will also make a trade-off to see if what they get can make up for what they lost. Everything is for the purpose of reinforcement.
After Brown memorized several names, everyone began to discuss this year's draft again. Francis sent everyone a stack of materials as the basis for judgment.However, everyone's enthusiasm is not very high. This year's 76ers' draft picks are not good. They think it is difficult to select suitable players at the end of the first round and the middle of the second round, just like Reid was selected last year.
Someone raised his hand and asked, "Coach, can we package the pick and trade up?"
Brown said with a wry smile: "Unless you are sure that player is worthy of us trading up the draft pick, otherwise you should keep your mouth shut. You know, for our dear general manager, the draft pick can best be traded for players." .”
Thinking of what Billy King did in the Nets in his previous life, Chang Wei also shook his head secretly. Fortunately, the head coach of the team is Brown. Come out a human tragedy.
