Coach Lee

Chapter 65

Davis wiped away his tears, then looked at Li Nan fixedly.

What can this kid say?

He also nodded as a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

However, Li Nan talked eloquently, expressing his own tactical assumptions and some thoughts on 76.

"Coach, the situation of the 76ers is not very good now, and your situation is also embarrassing. I think...

The 76ers have no big men at all, not even a 210+, and they are completely unsuitable for traditional tactics...

Coleman, Iverson, Stackhouse, these guys are all dismissive of defense, offense is what they want most...

Develop the big man's three-pointer and contain the opponent's big man.Make room for Iverson and Jerry who like to play singles..."

From the beginning, Davis slowly turned into seriousness, and finally into silent deep thinking.

He knows that Li Nan can command, and he knew it during the summer league.

It's just that he didn't expect that Li Nan would have such an idea when the 76ers came.

"Coach, to put it bluntly, you are a transitional player. The boss has no requirements for you. After the season is over, you will definitely pack up and leave."

Although this is the truth, Davis always feels so uncomfortable listening to it.

"you!"

Davis was uncomfortable, but Li Nan recklessly added fuel to the fire, "Coach, you are dead anyway, why don't you give it a try?"

"Yeah, why not try it?"

Davis muttered to himself.

When he was playing, he was a mediocre player.He relied on his desperate playing style to gain a foothold in the NBA.

As a coach, he was just a mediocre coach.He is diligent and steady, but there is really nothing extraordinary about him.

Being able to be the head coach of the 76ers is because the other assistants have followed the original head coach.

After a while, Davis finally shook his head and sighed.

"Oh~~I'm afraid I can't, I don't have that right."

Yes, Davis does not have that right, he has to report to the boss.

When he first became the head coach, Davis was asked to maintain the original 76ers' tactics.

In the previous meeting, those assistant coaches used this as an excuse to reject Davis' proposal to change the team's tactics.

When I wanted to sign Li Nan at the beginning, I had to go through a lot of hard work, so I asked the boss to take a look.

Seeing Davis' helplessness, Li Nan laughed "hen".

"You haven't tried it yet, how can you be sure it won't work?"

Seeing that he was hesitant, Li Nan didn't say any more.Leave quietly and let Davis think for himself.

……

In the boss's office.

"Lee, what are you talking about? Offensive basketball?"

Owner Pat Cross wanted to laugh.

"You kid asked me to talk about basketball tactics? Did you find the wrong person? You should go to Davis."

Li Nan looked serious, "No, boss, this matter is very important, I must tell you first."

"Well, tell me, I'm listening." Pat Cross took a sip of his coffee and listened with interest.

"Boss, did you buy the team for fun or to make money?"

Li Nan's sudden question made Pat Cross frown.This is not a question that Li Nan should ask!

"What about hobbies? What about business?"

"If you are interested, then I will take my leave, and I wish you a pleasant dinner!"

Li Nan made a gesture to leave, but Cross spoke again.

"Then what if I do it to make money?"

Li Nan looked serious, "If you want to make money, then boss, you have to listen to me and play offensive basketball."

"hen~~"

Cross laughed lightly, but asked cooperatively, "Why?"

"The offense wins the audience!"

Every word, Li Nan spoke very firmly.

What is an offense to win viewers?

Li Nan also spoke out in one go.

"Now the league is dominated by defense. Defense wins championships. This sentence is the most correct truth...

However, there is only one championship, not every team can win the championship...

The NBA is a business, the team is a company, and players and games are commodities.To do a good job in the company's business and make a lot of money, you must first have products that attract customers...

Besides the championship, what attracts the audience the most?That is of course a splendid attack! ..."

Seeing such a serious expression appear on the face of an 18-year-old boy, Cross couldn't hold back and laughed heartily.
"Hahahahaha..."

Li Nan himself laughed along with "haha".

Where is the interest in the NBA?Where are the feelings?That's all a lie!
It's just a business for the rich!
76人是帕特-克罗斯花费1250万美元买来的。1250万美元，就相当于1亿多人民币。96年的1块钱相当于十几年后十块钱不止吧？这一亿可不是小钱啊！
Pat Cross is rich, but he won't spend it so casually.

"Li, although I am very optimistic about what you said, this matter still needs to be studied and decided by the coaching team."

Pat Cross had a warm smile.

"That's natural."

Although the boss said that, Li Nan knew that this matter was probably close to ten.

……

A few days later, Davis and the other teaching assistants were called to a meeting by Greenberg.

"What? Offensive tactics?"

"Manager, did you say something wrong?"

"Isn't Nelson's offensive basketball style? Manager, no way, such a team can't go far!"

As soon as Greenberg said something, the coaching team underneath exploded.

Like Don Nelson's basketball style, in everyone's eyes, it is deviant.

Greenberg is also in a dilemma, and he doesn't want to.But the boss has spoken, and you have to listen.

Seeing their anger, Greenberg also smiled and watched quietly.

Suddenly, he noticed coach Davis blushing, as if constipated.

"Johnny, you?"

"I agree!"

Greenberg just wanted to ask if he was unwell, but Davis stood up abruptly and made a stand.

"it is good!"

Greenberg immediately applauded.

Someone took over the task given by the boss, and the burden was relieved. He, the general manager, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Without giving anyone any room to refute, Greenberg immediately stopped by:
"Next, you all listen to Davis' arrangements. We don't have a few days left. The preseason is coming soon, and the regular season is not far away. You are all well. I don't want to see someone leave us suddenly."

Leaving this sentence, Greenberg left.Davis, on the other hand, was still blushing.

Thinking of these days, he has been studying offensive basketball, running and bombing, even studying the Olympic Games and the Chinese men's basketball team every day.

Giving pays off!
At this moment, Davis was very moved.

"This is God's favor for me, thank you!"

Seeing the unbelievable appearance of the teaching assistants, Davis is very glad that he chose to trust Li Nan.

These teaching assistants are well prepared behind the scenes, right?Each player's information is diligently recorded on a daily basis.Isn't their purpose to replace Davis?

Opportunities are indeed for those who are prepared.

It's just that Davis was better prepared.

Davis smiled with a red face and said,
"Everyone, we are running out of time..."

……

In Philadelphia, Li Nan rented an apartment.

As soon as Cheeks came, he said with a half-smile, "Li, your trick has succeeded.

Li Nan didn't understand, so, "Brother, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately."

"Hehe, you still don't admit it." Cheeks smiled slyly, "You are pushing the boss and inciting Davis. You are most familiar with offensive basketball. When the time comes~"

"Okay, you're right." Li Nan interrupted him with a smile.

He actually only wanted to encourage the head coach at the time, but the head coach had no right to speak.Li Nan also took advantage of the trend and pushed the boss away.

Playing offensive basketball, with a fast offensive and defensive rhythm, Li Nan's chances have greatly increased.

"Brother, what do you want?"

"Hey." Cheeks slumped lazily on the sofa, pointing to the kitchen, "I want to eat a big plate of braised pork!"
