Chapter 1009
This news startled Presti, who couldn't help asking: "Who is that Allen Iverson?"
It really surprised him, because although Allen Iverson did not perform well in the Detroit Pistons last season, he was an All-Star member of the [-]-plus club last season. Such a player will come to the Sonics , but Presti quickly sorted out his thoughts. The current Allen Iverson is no longer the "answer" of the past. Similarly, the current Supersonics team is not the previous hanging wire Supersonics team. The Supersonics that won the championship have become an upstart in the league, and it is not surprising that Allen Iverson, who is seeking a next home, chooses the Supersonics, because it allows him to realize his dream of a championship.
"It's Allen Iverson, it can still be that one." Yao Mingchu also felt a little unbelievable when he heard the news, so he understood Presti's performance very well, and said to Presti calmly.
"What did he tell you?" Presti quickly calmed down from the joy of hearing the news. Although Allen Iverson was good, the Sonics couldn't give him the space and space he wanted. The opportunity to play, Stephen and Kevin Durant are both outside players, and they both need to take turns to play to solve the problem, not to mention there is Russell Westbrook who regards scoring as his life and needs to be appeased. If none of the six were given to him, would Allen Iverson accept it? With his rebellious attitude and never-back-down character, he would come to a team and play an important role ’?” Presti wondered.
"He didn't say anything, he just expressed his hope that he could win the championship with me." Yao Ming has been in the league for six or seven years, so he naturally knew that Allen Iverson wanted to come, but he put aside his superstar face, I hope the team can take the initiative to contact him. It is not a big deal to change this approach before, but he has fallen into such a state and still puts on such a superstar airs. Presti first took three points and disliked it. [
There is no need to give an answer to this kind of thing immediately. After thanking Yao Ming, Presti began to wonder whether the team can give Allen Iverson a position and room for full play, but after much deliberation , are relatively reluctant, but what is arguable is that even after the failure of last season, Allen Iverson is still one of the top figures in the commercial market. The commercial development of the company is definitely of great value. For commercial development, there are not too many star players. The only worry is on the court. At the same time, Presti is also worried that the arrival of Allen Iverson will affect the team. It's a pity that the team doesn't have a head coach yet, so the two can't discuss it.
what to do?After thinking for a while, Presti planned to send someone to contact the other party first, and listen to the other party's expectations for salary and status. If it is too high, let it go. If it is acceptable, continue to follow up and evaluate the risk at the same time , to start the formal introduction, I still have to put my mind on the head coach.
What is surprising is that Jeff Van Gundy is not willing to accept this position. The reason is that the performance of the Seattle SuperSonics last season was too good, which would put too much pressure on people. The current Jeff Van Gundy has a cold feeling, because he also experienced almost the same thing when he was in the Houston Rockets. The difference is that in the end Houston was willing to give him a contract, and he insisted on leaving.
Presti had no choice but to ask Yao Ming to come forward to persuade Jeff Van Gundy. Jeff Van Gundy also did not agree, but was willing to consider it.
However, he has no coaching experience and record to prove it. In addition, the tactical concept he advocates is more offensive, which is also unacceptable to the Sonics, especially Stephen. Style, I think this is the only way to match what I like, but it's just the opposite, and I lost the last chance.
The Sonics also considered looking for another head coach, but after a round in the league, they found that the right head coach had already had a job, such as Rick Carlisle, such as Mike Brown, such as Rivers, as for others , Either the salary is too high and far exceeds the standards of the Sonics, or there is no record to prove it. In the end, I still feel that Jeff Van Gundy is the most reliable.
Presti once planned to poach the corner of the San Antonio Spurs. As far as he knows, there are still two capable players in the Spurs' assistant team, but the rise of the Sonics has affected the San Antonio Spurs. The prospect of the championship, and this team is no longer Bennett's, **Vich has not so much support for the Supersonics, and the Supersonics are not allowed to contact his people, Prey Sti had no choice but to let go of this plan, otherwise it would be in the same line after all, even a novice would have no problem.
In the end, I continued to focus on Jeff Van Gundy. This time, Stephen and Yao Ming came forward in person and met with Jeff Van Gundy. Jeff Van Gundy was still very moved by their sincerity. After all, with Stephen's current status, it's not bad to be willing to give him such a face.
In addition, through the conversation between the two sides, I learned that the main goal of the Sonics is to strengthen the team's defense. This point touched Jeff Van Gundy. He actually wanted to strengthen his own defense. In addition to feeling the ambition of the Sonics, he also felt that the two sides were indeed like-minded.
But even so, Jeff Van Gundy did not agree, but agreed to negotiate with the supersonic team. Naturally, there must be other conditions, but under the sincere pursuit of the supersonic team, The two sides quickly reached an agreement.
It took only five days from the initial contact between the two parties to signing the contract, which can be described as extremely fast. On the one hand, the Sonics are indeed very sincere. Although it is the offseason now, the team needs to trade and renew the contract. , All of this is inseparable from the participation of the head coach. At the same time, after Jeff Van Gundy was moved, he did not raise any excessive conditions. The two hit it off and came together.
In the end, the two parties reached a two-plus-one contract with an annual salary of 500 million. If the two parties have no objections after two years, the contract will be automatically renewed for another year. Apart from these, there is naturally an additional condition, such as the power of the team. They are all very clearly divided. At that time, Carlesimo was not so clear because of the relationship between the two parties.
In addition, Jeff Van Gundy proposed very seriously that it must be specified in the contract. If the Sonics do not want to renew the contract, they must explain it in the middle of the season. The Sonics also agreed to this. It was just an accident. After the two parties reached an agreement, they disclosed the news to each other.
This news shocked the media very much. No one thought that the Sonics would choose a head coach so quickly, and the two sides reached an agreement so quickly. It was a shock that such an agreement was reached.
As for the choice of a coach like Jeff Van Gundy, Seattle fans can also accept it. The coach is definitely not satisfied with this championship performance.
The league is a bit dissatisfied. It was hard for an offensive team to win the championship, and suddenly they chose such a head coach. Isn’t this a reversal of history? They clearly remember that Jeff Van Gundy coached the Rockets How ugly is that scene during the game.
Of course, Carlesimo was even more dissatisfied. When he knew Jeff Van Gundy's salary figure, he immediately went crazy, thinking that the boss didn't give him a salary increase because he wanted to save money, although he was dissatisfied , but he can also be blamed, who told him to run into a stingy boss, but he gave Jeff Van Gundy so much, is it because he is more famous than himself, better than his previous record, and better than himself? defense.
