Zhang Weiping was informed of his next team building ideas.
And then the binding of mad dog's lingering props was removed from Ginobili
In the following time, Richard had a good time in Portland.
For five years, Richard didn't take a good look at the small city.
In the street, when he met a pedestrian who recognized him, Richard nodded with a gentle smile.
Stay here for a long time, no matter how hard hearted people will have feelings
……
Looking at how little time left before the draft conference, Richard flew to Detroit as scheduled to start his next journey.
Detroit is a well-known automobile city, and the whole world knows it because of the bankruptcy of the government.
Even if it's not a fan, I guess I've heard about Detroit
But the situation in Detroit is OK, that is to say, there are more black people, and nothing else is wrong.
In the days of Detroit's collapse, about ten years later, Richard would not be in charge of such a thing. Anyway, he would not buy property in Detroit.
Ten years later, Richard didn't know where he would be
……
Just off the plane, at the exit of the airport, dozens of fans hold signs to welcome Richard to join, led by piston star Joe Dumas.
Joe Dumas also has a layer of identity, the former general manager of the pistons and the current Vice President of the team
The reason why he was promoted to the position of vice president was to give way to Richard.
Richard wants to hold all three positions at the same time. Although it sounds exaggerated, this kind of thing hasn't never happened. At least it happens often when the general manager holds the post of president.
Davidson is kind. Although Dumas was demoted, his salary has not changed
In fact, Dumas retired in 1999, and then in 2000, last season, he took the post of general manager of piston.
As a result, the ass was occupied by Richard Hatoyama before he got hot
For this kind of emergency, Dumas can only accept, there is no other way.
If he was the boss, I'm afraid he would do the same
"Li, welcome to join us!"
"I'm sure we can do a great job!"
Dumas patted Richard on the shoulder warmly. As for his age, he was five or six years older than Richard. At the moment, he was as enthusiastic as his elder brother.
Richard also smiled and nodded, and treated his own people. Richard never had a cold face.
Of course, it's hard to say whether Dumas is his own
……
With Dumas to the piston to arrange the residence, Richard saw the team boss Davidson.
I don't know why Davidson gives Richard the feeling that it's not particularly good. It's not as sunny as Paul Allen
Maybe it's also because Davidson is a man of one mind.
When he saw Davidson, Richard thought of one thing
In fact, Davidson didn't have many years to live. He died in 2009. Now Davidson is 78 years old.
Life is seventy years old, Davidson can live to nearly ninety years old, in fact, he has made a lot of money.
At present, Richard can't be a fool to remind people that they haven't had a few years to live. It's totally random
"Li, if you encounter any difficulties in your work, come to me as much as possible!"
"I'm so old. I hope you can close my eyes and let me witness the moment when piston wins the championship again..."
Davidson was rarely humorous.
Richard nodded. Now that he is sure to join the piston, he must work diligently, regardless of public or private.
It's just a matter of time!
If Richard can't lead the pistons to the championship before he arrives in 2009, it's almost time for him to go back to China and sell sweet potatoes.
……
Sitting in the super wide office that piston prepared for himself, Richard began his first working day after joining piston.
Dumas, as Richard's deputy, is now sitting opposite him.
As a former general manager, he naturally has a lot of work to hand over to Richard
But Richard is obviously not ready to take over these jobs at present. Instead, let Dumas use the current list of all piston players and their respective contract salaries.
"Joe, now our focus is on draft and off-season deals!"
"As for the operation of the team and other aspects of work, it's up to you and other colleagues to do it for the time being. I can't get away from it for the time being..."
Richard can't really pull himself out at the moment, because he just joined the piston, and the piston's bottom is too weak, so everything has to start again.Unlike in the last few seasons of the Blazers, Richard's off-season work is limited
Dumas smiled and nodded.
At first, he was worried that Richard would take charge of everything and make the team unable to operate normally. Now, it seems that Richard still has points in his mind. One person's energy is limited and cannot be responsible for the operation of a team alone.
When Dumas left the office, Richard sighed.
There is no one to use under the hand. It's really egg ache
Before, some jobs, such as player information, had been arranged by Stevens for him. Now Stevens is ready to stay in the Blazers, not with Richard.
Now Richard has become a real light commander.
Of course, the financial aspect has golden dragon to help, Richard is not very worried, but the problem is that the Golden Dragon in the team building, can not help Richard at all.
……
Stevens is also thinking of setting up a new door at the moment, staying in the pioneer waiting for the opportunity.
It's normal to think about it. Richard has many managers, Carlisle, rambil and Zhang Weiping.
At the beginning of the four Vajra assistants, now only Stevens has not yet found the position of head coach.
He is ready to wait for the opportunity in the pioneer.
But while he did not follow Richard to Detroit, Stevens also recommended a candidate for Richard.
Bob miles.
When Richard first went to pioneer, the young man called to apply for the position of assistant teacher.
But Richard refused because he was too young
I didn't expect that Bob Miles's interpersonal skills were quite good, and he and Stevens became good friends.
At present, Richard is short of people. Stevens recommended his best friend to Richard directly.
Richard was impressed by the name. After a lot of thinking, he came to think of the goods. Isn't it the general manager of the team of the future warriors
is as like as two peas. Age is also in line. The probability is that the manager of the warrior is superb.
Of course, Richard would not refuse such talents.
Of course, if it's really Bob miles, otherwise, Richard will not find a small minion to make up the number.
I have an appointment. I'll meet you in my office in the afternoon.
When Bob miles walked into Richard's office, he was completely relieved that the general manager of the warrior was right.
Miles is almost a genius. He's even one year younger than Stevens. As a result, he's mixed up in the league.
The reason why a warrior can rise is that he has made great contributions in several divine operations.
Abandon the warrior's family, start Kuri, and sign a child labor contract for Kuri
Dig igodara
Dug Durant
Dig for cousins
Anyway, the operation of this product is really poisonous, which is absolutely worthy of the honor of the best general manager he got at the beginning.
Richard would not want to miss such a prodigy. As the general manager of his team, he immediately signed a three-year contract with miles with an annual salary of 500000 US dollars.
Five years ago, the annual salary of 500000 yuan was quite generous for a teaching assistant.
But at present, it is only a common contract. There are many assistants in the league who can get such a contract.
It's not that Richard doesn't want to give a big contract, but it's different now.
Paul Allen is a real local magnate, but what about Davidson? Although the financial resources are good, they will not be as cheerful as Paul Allen.
Richard didn't want to come to Detroit because of the contract.
Besides, his current position has changed. He is the general manager of the team. He is responsible for the profits and losses of the team
In this case, it is impossible for Richard to sign a contract as big as before.
……
Bob miles signed his name on the contract. The whole man couldn't close his mouth happily. He felt like he was dreaming!
The dream of five years ago has finally come true today
"Bob, there's a job for you now!" Richard watched miles sign the contract and immediately began to let him work.
"Boss, you said, I will complete the task successfully." Miles was quite excited.
"Help me get in touch with the teams that have the draft right between 15-24 in the first round and see if they are interested in our No.9 pick."
"If you are interested, ask them to come up with a quotation as soon as possible, and then sort it out and show it to me!"
Miles recorded Richard's words with a swish pen."By the way, we put Stackhouse on the shelf!"
This sentence makes miles dumbfounded directly!
Put Stackhouse on the shelf?! Sell the only player in the pistons that miles sees as valuable?!
It's crazy
But even though he thought it was crazy, miles didn't say anything.
In his opinion, if not crazy, is it Richard?!
Since Richard came to the fore, what is not crazy
……
Miles took the lead, and Richard sat in his office, frowning and thinking.
There was some confusion in his mind. Richard forced himself to calm down.
It's a few days before the draft conference. Richard must maximize the value of his chips in this short period of time, and strive to gain something in this draft Conference!
The 2000 draft conference is a small year, but the rookies in 2001 are of good quality.
The number of players with names and surnames is close to 20!
Among them, there are about ten players who have been selected as all stars
Champion Chandler, sister-in-law, Richardson, Battier, singles Joe, Jefferson, Troy Murphy, Randolph, Elvis Presley, little sports car Parker!
There are so many strong players in the first round alone
As for the second round, there are quite a lot of missed fish. The first ranking generals in the second round are arenas, OKU and Bobby Simmons.
And there's nochionne in the draft.
Of course, there is also a special player in this draft, Jason Corris.
The first and only player in NBA history to publicly announce his homosexuality
In fact, homosexuality is common in basketball circle.
For example, the EJ sauce of Johnson's son, the little kid of Kidd's son, the elder sister of Reggie Miller, Jordan's daughter, the smiling Assassin's son
Another example is Howard, the world of Warcraft, who eats both men and women
Anyway, it's not uncommon for fans to have resistance.
Especially the children of famous families, who don't know what's going on, are quite likely to be gay
However, there are not many players who really disclose that they are gay.
In Richard's memory, in addition to this Chris, there is a former teammate of Yao Ming amic.
Apart from these two, there is no one else
As for magicians and Warcraft, the two men and women who eat all, they have never admitted it.
The average person also dare not admit, want to know that the players are in the dressing room, a lot of time is the red fruit opposite.
It's not appropriate to think that some of them are gay.
……
At present, Richard is worried about how to choose this draft conference.
is awesome for the number and quality of the players. Richard naturally thinks the more players he can get, the better.
If it's possible to get all these players in hand, the pistons are not far from rising.
But it's impossible. Detroit has two draft options
So now Richard is taking advantage of these days to try his best to increase the number of draft rights.
Even if the ranking is a little lower, it's OK. After all, there are many new comers who missed the net.
First of all, save some decent players, and then the specific lineup construction. Wait until next year when Yao Ming enters the NBA and Richard gets it, then the specific layout.
……
In the evening, Bob Myers sorted out the feedback from the teams.
It has to be said that Miles's ability is quite strong. Get the contact information of each team from Stevens, and then call them.
The prologue said nothing else but that he was Richard's chief assistant
Isn't that the chief teaching assistant? At present, Richard has an assistant under his hand, who is not the chief.
As for piston's former assistants, they were all taken away by the former manager.
……
Richard took over the list compiled by miles and nodded with satisfaction.
Miles did a good job, not only listing the offers of each team in detail, but also marking several sincere teams with a red pen.
Piston's ninth place draft right is actually worth a lot.
Generally, the top ten draft rights are worth a lot more than the latter. Moreover, this year only two people from Purdue University participate in the draft, otherwise, the value of the top ten draft rights will be higher.
This year, Purdue has only two candidates, one is Zach Randolph, the other is Richardson.Mike Miller has entered the NBA last season
At present, there is only one bare Prince left in the whole team of Purdue University!
it is worth mentioning that Purdue University has not won the championship this year, but the results are better than last season, reaching the final four.
However, even if the final four, it also has some impact on the prospects of this year's draft.
People can obviously feel that the player of Purdue University is Wang Er's new year's day, which is not as good as one year.
Therefore, this year's Universiade is less than two years old, and the order may not be very high
Now the more difficult situation of Purdue University is that there is still no fresh blood to join in.
This year, Richard gave a list of only one person - David Lee!
It's not that there are few good players in this year's golden arch all star game. In fact, the quality is fairly good, at least slightly better than the previous ones.
But the problem is that there are three players in the draft.
Kwame Brown, Chandler and Eddie Curry!
These three people claim to be three senior high school students this year, and all of them are center players. They are Paul Gasol with a good reputation
Many experts believe that this year is a super draft year, comparable to O'Neill's 92nd year of the interior line!
O'Neill's draft, in addition to a O'Neill, there is a Monin
Even the third ranking Leitner, rookie season is cut off 18 + 9 per game data!
Then there is rookie Tom Gugliotta, who averaged 15 + 9 a game.
It's definitely a super inside year!
And this year's 01 draft, three super high school students inside, with a Paul Gasol outside, is also expected
The same is true for all teams. The four men were chosen in the top four.
Of course, it turns out that this draft is not a big year in the interior at all. Compared with Shaquille O'Neill's 92nd draft, it's a million miles away
……
With the three top high school students taking part in the draft, Richard naturally provided only David Lee's list.
It can be predicted that in the next few years, the life of Purdue University will be very difficult.
But there's still glory. They've got it
In recent years, it has been quiet and completely acceptable.
……
Looking at the quotation list compiled by miles, Richard finally saw the warrior's quotation.
Warriors are willing to take out the draft right of the 14th in the first round and take out the draft right of the first in the second round to exchange the 9th and 37th signatures in Richard's hands!
Last season, under the leadership of Dave Coons, the warriors played the second lowest record in the League
The last one is the Washington Wizards
As a result, the poor second to last record didn't let the warriors get the top spot, only got a draft right of the fifth place in the first round.
In addition to the number five sign, warrior has a number 14 sign on hand.
Richard has a feeling that maybe he and Dave Kearns will meet again soon. Kearns may become an assistant this season.
……
"Dave, that one in our hands works. Do you want one?" Richard called Kearns directly and asked about the situation to see if he could ask warriors to cancel the round.
Directly exchange No. 9 for No. 14 and No. 30.
"To be honest, it's useless, but the value of our signature 14 is not much lower than that of our signature 9. If we change two for one, we'll lose some money!" Dave Coons said with a wry smile.
"That's better, Dave. You take the number 14 to exchange. I only need a draft right before the 23rd in the first round."
Richard showed Dave Kearns a clear way.
If you think it's a loss for two, take the No. 14 sign and go to another round to get a second round from other teams.
Anyway, this round of signing in Richard's hand, he certainly didn't want to take it out.
