Chapter 6 [Successful signing of the contract, official poverty alleviation]
Chapter 6 [Successful signing of the contract, official poverty alleviation]
Manager Ernie Grunfeld is not a sloppy person. After the discussion, he called his assistant immediately, went through the process to draw up a contract, and was ready to sign with the two.
The Knicks can't afford to wait. The summer league is about to start in early July. If the team's head coach personally leads the team to inspect the marginalized people and find backup talents for the team, it will become a laughing stock.
There is an unwritten rule that the team leader is always the team assistant coach, who examines both the players and the assistant coach.
The summer league is a place full of "hanging silk". Each team can sign a contract with anyone in the free market, and can invite foreign players to play. They only need to take care of food and lodging, and do not have to undertake other obligations. In the end, they do not sign a contract to compete in the NBA. Quan questioned, and if he was injured, he could only admit bad luck.
Some players will participate in summer leagues in Las Vegas, Orlando, and Long Beach at the same time, just to play more games, show their strength, and pursue a minimum salary.
Thibodeau has also signed, and his defensive philosophy suits Van Gundy's appetite.
As for Boyd, he can only be passed by the ruthless PASS. People who are slow to discuss tactics can't work together at all.A good assistant is a good assistant who dares to help the head coach to share the responsibilities.
Three days later, Yang Rui and Xibodu reported to the general manager's office together and got the contract.
The content is not complicated. They need to participate in the team's daily training, tactical discussions, and play away games with the team. The contract period is one year.
Unless it is a big-name assistant coach, he will get a high-paying long-term contract as soon as he takes up the post. This kind of person is usually the team actively poaching.
No matter how good Yang Rui performed in the interview, the salary had to start from a newcomer in the industry. The annual salary before tax was only 15, and Xibodu was even less than him, 12.
This offer is very fair. Xibodu couldn't even get along with the 76ers and was fired, and Yang Rui was inexperienced.If they prove themselves, the management will consider renewing the contract, otherwise it is just a transitional coach.
Thibodeau was very depressed that Yang Rui became the team's first assistant coach based on his performance in the interview. Seeing him calmly signing the contract when he got the contract, he began to wonder what family he came from.
An annual salary of $10 is an absolute high salary in the United States. Why does he seem to not care?
This is of course because Yang Rui comes from the era after the great development of the NBA. Since 2015, many assistant coaches have received an annual salary of one million yuan, and the player contract is even more ridiculous.Now he is not for money, but only for a platform.
Yang Rui's mood is just one word - cool!
In the previous life, his parents were gone, he had almost no contact with distant relatives, and he was alone.Back in this era, he didn't have the slightest entanglement, he just wanted to let go of his courage and have a hard time.
After signing the contract, Yang Rui got a check, and the team paid $[-] in advance, which was the hard work for the summer league.He immediately quit his job at the snack bar and was officially out of poverty.
The Knicks then finalized an assistant coach Billy Sharman, plus original strength trainer Chris Joger, to form a new coaching staff.
On July 7, the NBA free market opened, and the Knicks management held a uniform team meeting.
Uniforms, as the name suggests, means suits, and the uniforms are the coaching staff and management meetings.Manager Ernie first welcomed the new members and then arranged for July.
"Jerry Yang, Tom Thibodeau, you will go to the Long Beach Summer League together for a total of five games. Jerry, there is good news. We agreed to the request of the Chinese men's basketball team and played against them in the first game." Ernie looked at Yang Ray laughed.
"Haha, that's so interesting." Yang Rui realized that his joining had a butterfly effect.
Last year, the Chinese men's basketball team came to the United States to train against the Lakers.In Yang Rui's previous life, this year the Chinese men's basketball team still played against the Lakers, and in 1998, he played a game with the temporarily formed "Magician Star Team".
The so-called star team is actually the legendary point guard "Magic" Johnson and a group of retired old men. Johnson is 39 years old and has been diagnosed with AIDS for 7 years.
Johnson wasn't the fattest yet. One of his teammates was fat and turned into a ball. The whole thing was a man with black Michelin tires. The match was broadcast on Chinese TV at the time, and Yang Rui was particularly impressed.
In the face of such a group of comrades who are old, weak, sick, pregnant, and holding children, the Chinese players have an advantage in athletic ability, and there is no suspense... 88 to 112 lost.
In the past two years, the men’s basketball team has been so speechless. This time they are warming up for the upcoming Asian Championships. If there is no deviation in history, they will lose to South Korea in the semi-finals. In the end, they will only get No.3 and miss the World Championships. This is the first time since 1982 that the team has missed the World Championships.
Yang Rui is very happy. He has never been a coach in his previous life. He only has the memories of this life as a reference, which needs some time to buffer.If he played against a strong team in the first game, he would be under a lot of pressure. Playing against the Chinese team would be like going to bed and giving him a pillow.
The atmosphere of the meeting was a bit weird. Except for Ernie and Van Gundy, everyone was curious about how Yang Rui became a teaching assistant. He was still the first teaching assistant in name.
Is it so easy to find a job in an NBA giant?
He is too young, he looks like he is not even 23 years old, could it be the illegitimate child of the boss and the Chinese?
"Jerry, you look optimistic, but you've never been to summer league, do you know how?"
"I know a little bit, it's an invitation to free agents, right?" Yang Rui smiled and looked at Ernie. "Manager, in terms of inviting players, can I suggest candidates?"
"Of course, you can discuss with the two Mr Maguire, they will contact the player or the player's agent and send an invitation, but there is no guarantee that it will come."
Dick - Maguire is a famous Knicks scout, 72 years old this year, still digging talents for the Knicks.His assistant is his son Scott Maguire, who inherits his father's business.
"Is there a detailed list of freelancers?" Yang Rui asked.
"There is a list, but it is not specific. There is only basic information such as the age, height, and weight of the players. Many people's technical characteristics are unknown, because most of them have no experience of playing in the NBA." Scott replied.
"That's enough, I need a list after the meeting." Yang Rui said easily.
Glenn's first impression of Yang Rui was not very good. He always felt that this young man was too conceited, and said in a cold tone: "Mr. Yang, what do you think the summer league team can achieve? Do you have the confidence to select potential players for the team? "
"I don't know." Yang Rui said bluntly.
"What?" Glenn frowned.
"Of course I don't know. I haven't even seen a player's shadow. I don't know their quality, let alone tell them tactics. So, I can only give an answer after the players are selected."
Glenn wanted to catch Yang Rui's flaws, so he made a big deal out of him and used it as a handle in the future, but the other party wasn't fooled at all.
"Mr. Walsh, do you have any questions?" Yang Rui paused for five seconds, and smiled when no one spoke. "Leaders please continue, I obey any arrangements."
Compared with Xibodu's prudence, Yang Rui's every move is dashing and confident.The management elders looked at it and muttered even more in their hearts.
Are today's young people so powerful?He is neither stage frightened nor reckless.
This kid can become an assistant coach, maybe he is really capable.
Will there be any surprises in the summer league this year?
Van Gundy found Yang Rui more and more pleasing to the eye. He was 27 years old when he spoke with excitement when he attended the team meeting for the first time.
Yang Rui is courageous and dares to take responsibility, which shows that Van Gundy has the knowledge and face.
The Knicks have retained the core lineup, and the weakest link is precisely the coaching staff.Van Gundy hopes that Yang Rui will perform well, and he has signed a contract. Even if it is only for one year, he does not want his assistant to be useless, and everything is on his own.
