Grab Curry at the start

Chapter 1 Curry Must Have

Chapter 1 Curry Must Have

Outside the window, the hot sun baked the reinforced concrete.

Minnesota is a hell of a place with extreme weather, freezing cold in the winter and hot in the summer.

Fortunately, the high-power air conditioner in the office can give people comfort.

Zhang Sixin was happy to be reborn, returned to the early summer of 2009, and became himself in a parallel world.

In this time and space, he did not go to university, work, and get married step by step. Instead, he went abroad to study and chose basketball that he loves.

Although Zhang Sixin did not become a professional athlete, he took steps one step at a time, starting as a college coach, joining an NBA team, scouting, and assistant coach. After ten years of hard work, he finally became a young young coach in the NBA.

In the summer of 2007, the Timberwolves sent away the core of the team, Kevin Garnett.

In the 2007-2008 season, the Timberwolves were in chaos.

Timberwolves owner Glenn Taylor decided to completely rebuild, and the team's management has undergone a major shake-up.

As a disciple of Pat Riley, Zhang Sixin was favored by Glenn Taylor and became the new head coach of the Timberwolves.

His senior brother Eric Spoelstra performed well in charge of the Heat last season, which also added points to Zhang Sixin's interview.

Glenn Taylor can't say he doesn't understand football, but he can't say he understands football either. He is a relatively standard businessman.

During the reconstruction period, he hoped to make a big difference with a small one.

The Riley system is a stepping stone, and what really impresses Zhang Sixin is the low-cost trial and error rate.

The contract he signed with the Timberwolves has additional clauses. The team's performance improved in the first season, and he made the playoffs in the second season, so that he can get his full salary, otherwise the team does not need any compensation for dismissing him.

To activate the bonus clause in the contract, the Timberwolves must successfully enter the second round of the playoffs within four years.

Of course, there are relatively great powers beyond harsh conditions.

That is, without paying the luxury tax, the team's draft signings are mainly based on Zhang Sixin's opinions.

"Leading the Huskies to advance by leaps and bounds is an achievement that even the famous coaches of the league cannot achieve...Fortunately, this coach has cheats!"

Zhang Sixin tasted the iced coffee brought by his assistant, casually flipped through the rookie materials, and was confident.

Coaching system, an unremarkable cheat name.

Zhang Sixin's experience bar and activated tasks are displayed on it.

There are also assistant coaches and players below, with experience bars on them, and everyone can activate tasks.

After activating the task, you can directly upgrade and add points, and everything is under control.

In addition, as a reborn person, Zhang Sixin still has his eyes open.

Which rookie has potential and which player can play out, Zhang Sixin is clear.

"No matter how you lose, you can fly the Huskies without any pressure."

Outside the office, eager footsteps sounded.

Zhang Sixin sat upright, with a straight suit and a poker face, all of which showed the majesty of the head coach.

David Kahn pushed the door open, with an impatient face, sweating profusely, and even a crooked tie. It was clear at a glance who was the real elite.

Zhang Sixin took a sip of coffee and said unhurriedly: "David, sit down and rest for a while, and things can take their time. You are... not decent enough."

"Decent? If things get messed up, none of us will be decent." David Kahn said angrily.

This buddy is also a beneficiary of the team's management change, and the general manager of the team who took office at about the same time as Zhang Sixin.

David Kahn originally planned to flex his muscles, but he did not expect the boss to give Zhang Sixin more decision-making power.

Riley is great, David Kahn is sour.

"That guy Dell Curry rejected us again. He didn't let his son come over for trial training before. They must have contacted the team, and the league didn't care..." David Kahn was very aggrieved.

"Phone number." Zhang Sixin stretched out his hand.

"What phone number?" David Kahn was a little confused.

Zhang Sixin tapped his desk speechlessly, and sighed, "Let me tell him Dell Curry's phone number."

David Kahn was upset again, questioning his ability to work.

Does this young Chinese head coach think that anyone will give him face? Dell Curry has been in the league for so many years, and he has a lot of connections, so why would he be useful.

However, David Kahn was very cooperative and gave the phone number, he just wanted to see Zhang Sixin make a fool of himself.

After Zhang Sixin dialed the phone, he said formulaically: "Mr. Curry, I am Zhang Sixin, the new head coach of the Timberwolves."

"Oh, man, don't be like this, someone of you has already contacted me just now, and you will definitely not like the answer I said." Dell Curry said a little apologetically.

Zhang Sixin smiled and said, "Really? I want to invite Mr. Curry to be the shooting assistant coach of the Timberwolves. I like your shooting very much."

The other party froze for a moment before saying, "Oh, thank you, buddy, I...maybe need to think about it."

Dell Curry was a little moved when he heard it. After all, the children in the family are growing up, and his career ambition is about to move again.

However, he wasn't likely to make such a decision before his eldest son joined the team.

The two chatted politely for a while, and the call ended happily.

David Kahn's attitude towards Zhang Sixin has changed a bit. This cunning oriental man has some tricks.

But it's still too much taken for granted, the other party doesn't want his son to come to the Timberwolves at all, okay?

He thought for a while and said: "Zhang, your conditions may be very useful to some people. But Stephen Curry will definitely be a lottery pick, they are not willing to come over, and it is useless for you to do so."

"Moreover, he is just our backup target. If we want to make achievements, we must get better players. This year only..."

Zhang Sixin waved his hand, interrupted David Kahn's chatter, and asked, "How's the matter of trading draft picks up? Has the Thunder let go?"

Zhang Sixin didn't want to hear this guy's cliché, and Curry certainly wouldn't want to come over. Dell Curry helped his son reject one or two teams. Their family is thinking about going to the Knicks now.

But in history, the Warriors chose Curry by force. Didn't Curry also work hard for the Warriors, and finally became a superstar, helping the Warriors win three championships?

It is enough to have a pick in Curry, whether his father agrees or not.

Zhang Sixin's invitation to Dell Curry to be an assistant coach is serious. The stable performance of weak chicken teams depends on defense, and both offense and defense must be used to create miracles. But no matter what, shooting is very important.

In Zhang Sixin's task bar, to form a coaching team, there is still a shortage of assistant coaches.

Zhang Sixin and David Kahn are consistent in trading draft picks up.

The Timberwolves' comprehensive reconstruction is not just about changing the management, but the players are the top priority.

Now the players in the Timberwolves, except for the second-year rookie Kevin Love, can all be sent away.

The boss is unwilling to spend more money, so he can only rely on the draft.

Speaking of draft picks, David Kahn looked sad again.

"The Thunder still haven't let up. If Al Jefferson hadn't been injured last season, it might have happened, but now we don't have the leverage they need."

"The first three picks, no... we can't get the first four picks, only the Wizards' fifth pick is willing to trade. However, Blake Griffin, Hashim Thabeet, and Ricky Rubio can't fall to fifth place..."

Zhang Sixin couldn't help but rolled his eyes. At this time, Griffin, Thabeet, and Rubio are the hottest rookies in this class, and James Harden, Tyreke Evans, Jonny Flynn, and Stephen Curry are all slightly inferior.

And this year is now called the draft year, and the top three picks are more valuable.

It's not easy for the Timberwolves to trade picks up, but it's not that difficult after the top three. The Wizards don't even need the Timberwolves to come up with their own picks.

However, Zhang Sixin knows very clearly that the 2009 rookies are not bad, especially the guards.

But Thabeet is a parallel importer, Rubio is mediocre, and Curry and Harden are the real masters.

Especially Curry, can be said to be a player who changed the times.

Therefore, Curry must get it.
