NBA: Teaming up with Thompson, the template for Atsushi Zihara

Feeling the extraordinary enthusiasm of Vandeweghe, the general manager of the team, Qin Chong had a smile on his face, and he couldn't help sighing in his heart.

It seems that he led the national team to win the World Championships this time, and everyone from the boss to the manager on and off the Nets has admired him even more.

"Mr. Vandeweghe, thank you and the management for considering my opinion!"

"In the new season, I can't wait to lead the Nets to kill the Quartet!"

10 month 5 day,
Steve Nash, Andre Iguodala, Louis Williams, etc. got the new main players of the Nets through trade and signing,

They also came to the New Jersey Continental Airlines Arena to report,

"Mustache" Mike D'Antoni, who had trouble with James Dolan because of his poor record last season,
He was also intercepted by the Nets, signed a 4-year 1200 million head coach contract, and drove from New York to East Rutherford, New Jersey, a neighboring city less than 30 kilometers away.

He took office and became the head coach of the New Jersey Nets.

During this period, Mike D'Antoni was 59 years old. During the 03-08 season when he coached the Phoenix Suns,

The two teams once led the Suns to the top spot in the Western Conference in the regular season, and also created Steve Nash's two consecutive MVPs.

Now that he came to the Nets, he once again teamed up with his former lover and the new champion,
Mike D'Antoni is also ambitious, hoping to flex his muscles, lead the Nets to create brilliance, and point directly to the championship.

After all, during the coaching period of the Suns,
Although the team's regular season record is very gorgeous, but the playoffs are always not far away, which has become an eternal pain in Mike D'Antoni's heart.

The reason why Vandeweghe finally chose to sign D'Antoni to be the head coach of the Nets is that on the one hand, he considered Nash's role as the starting point guard.
On the other hand, Qin Chong, the new top scholar, was also consulted.
Moreover, Mike D'Antoni himself also won the honor of the league's best head coach in the 04-05 season, and he can be regarded as a famous NBA coach with a clear coaching style.

Looking at the entire league, the current head coaches of 30 teams,

Mike D'Antoni may not be as famous as the "Zen Master" Phil Jackson of the Lakers, Popovich of the Spurs and George Karl of the Nuggets,

No better than Jerry Sloan of the Jazz and Larry Brown of the Hornets,

But in addition to these big guys, Mike D'Antoni can also be regarded as the head coach with the biggest card.

Vandeweghe has fully obeyed the meaning of Prokhorov, the owner of the four local tyrants in Russia,
Not only must the new season's Nets team be strong and star-studded,
It is also necessary to make the most luxurious improvements to the team from players to coaches, from logistics to staff.

Therefore, while Kiki Vandeweghe was worried about the reinforcement of the team lineup and the structure of the coaching team,
He also hired Thomas, the famous team doctor of the Phoenix Suns, at a high price to escort the Nets' medical logistics.

Ouzhou, Xila, in an underground bar in Yadian, the capital,

A black man with a bald head, wearing a hip-hop costume, is having a conversation with teammates Linus Kleiza, Childress and others from the Sheila Basketball Club,

Drinking wine together, celebrating the Sheila Basketball League championship they just won.

This black man is none other than Patrick Beverly,

He was originally selected by the Lakers with the 09nd overall pick in the second round of 42, but the Lakers never signed with Beverly.
Beverly could only choose to come to Ouzhou to play for gold.

In the two seasons here, Beverly relied on his strong will and daring to fight hard,

He has always been a man of the hour in the Sheila League. He ranked first in steals and fourth in scoring in the season. He also won the season championship with the team.

Although playing here does not lack attention, Beverly is in the United States after all, and he has never given up his dream of NBA basketball.

With the Miami Heat forming the Big Three this offseason, the Heat's management salary is insufficient,

It can only be found in the free market and overseas to find some cost-effective players to supplement the team's lineup.

As the general manager of the Heat, Pat Riley has a vicious eye and discovered Beverly's demeanor in Ouzhou.

And decided to provide him with a two-year, $2 million non-guaranteed contract.

Beverly is naturally very happy to be able to return to the NBA, but he is still hesitant about his contract with an annual salary of only $60.

At least give an annual salary of about 80 US dollars?
Teammate Kleiza is still persuading Beverly that he might as well stay in Ouzhou. Playing here can at least be the main force. Isn't it better than going to the NBA to watch the drinking fountains?
Is it possible that the NBA's drinking fountains are diamond-studded?
While Beverly was hesitating, his cell phone rang suddenly.
The person calling on the other end of the phone was none other than Vandeweghe, the general manager of the New Jersey Nets.

"Patrick, I'm Kiki Vandeweghe, the general manager of the NBA Nets. I believe you should have heard of me!"

"How? Are you interested in coming back to play in the NBA? The Nets may be able to provide you with a good choice!"

Beverly on the other end of the phone reacted, and immediately became a little agitated, but remained calm:

"Mr. Vandeweghe, it's a great honor for you to take the initiative to call me, but I'm really sorry, I have already received a contract offer from the Miami Heat, and I will go to sign soon!"

Vandeweghe on the other end of the phone was smiling, and his tone was always strategizing:
"Patrick, although I don't know how much Pat Riley paid you, it certainly won't exceed an annual salary of 80, right?"

"If you want to come to the Nets, I can give a verbal commitment right now, $4 million for four years, how about it?"

After listening to Vandeweghe's words, Beverly was stunned for a moment.

4 million dollars in 360 years?

The annual salary reached 90 US dollars,

And it's still a 4-year guaranteed contract?
Did he really hear correctly?

A mad dog in the arena is really worth so much money?
After repeated confirmation on the phone, Beverly finally jumped up excitedly and said excitedly:

"God bless you, Mr. Vandeweghe, I'm off to buy a plane ticket!"

Except for Beverly,
The Nets are still in a deal with the Lakers, sending Chris Douglas and Terrence Williams, who averaged 10 points per game,
Got the Lakers guard Jordan Farmar, and the son of the famous Bill Walton, Luke Walton, who is a small forward.

Thus,
The New Jersey Nets' 15-man roster for the new season has already confirmed 12 players:
Point Guard (PG): Steve Nash, Lou Williams, Patrick Beverley,

Shooting Guard (SG): Courtney Lee, Jordan Farmar,

Small Forward (SF): Andre Iguodala, Luke Walton,

Power Forward (PF): United Arab Emirates, Chris Humphries,

Center (C): Qin Chong, Tony Batty, Hassan Whiteside.
