Chapter 89 The King's Invitation

After leaving the general manager's office sullenly, Dad drove Davidson home.

"Dad, guess who called me this afternoon?" Davidson said with a smile in the car.

Dad shook his head.

"Kings!"

"They actually called me and wanted to invite me to join their coaching staff." Davidson said with a smile.

In fact, Davidson was quite surprised when he received the call in the afternoon. He never expected that the Kings would poach him at this point in time.

Dad immediately became interested, and the Kings were surprised to find their assistant coach at this point in time.

"What did they say? It's impossible to hire you as an assistant coach? What's the difference between that and the Nets? Only fools will go there."

"In terms of salary, it's impossible for the Kings to give it indiscriminately. The 20 assistant salary given by the Nets is more than enough." The old man asked with a smile.

He was very curious, what kind of bargaining chip the king had given him to poach his own corner.

"They promised me that if they select an outstanding rookie in the draft in June, they will let me be the team's chief assistant coach." Davidson said the chips thrown by the Kings.

The old man waved his hand, "If I'm not mistaken, that old boy Jerry Reynolds called you, right?"

Davidson nodded. The call was indeed made by Kings general manager Reynolds.

"Don't pay attention to him, he is dying now, maybe after the end of this season, he will be fired." The old man said with a smile.

He is well aware of the situation in the league, so he is naturally very aware of the current situation of the king.

General manager Reynolds began to work as the head coach of the Kings in 86. Later, like Willis Reed, he was also promoted from coach to general manager of the team.

Since he took office in December 89, in the past four years, the King's record has been terrible, and he can only get only about 12 victories in each season.

The news from Dad is that after this season, Reynolds will step down and leave, and the team will hire a new general manager.

So the father told Davidson not to talk to Reynolds, the other party was a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, so who would take care of Davidson at that time.

How could the newly appointed general manager care about the agreement between Davidson and Reynolds.

"Well, anyway, I had no intention of going to the king now."

"However, Dad, since you know that the king's side is going to change the general manager, why don't you try it out, Sidney is in Saramento, don't you want to live with them?"

The Sidney mentioned by Davidson is the father's only child, Sidney Daly.

The father only has such a daughter, so he naturally loves her very much, but Sidney settled in Saramento after getting married, and every year, when he went to the king's away game, he could see her twice.

Now that the general manager of the king is going to change, it really suits Dad.

Davidson's words also moved the old man's heart. If he competes for the position of general manager at that time, there should be no problem.

After all, his qualifications are there. Even if he leaves the Pistons, the achievement of making the Nets into such a strong team in the past two years is enough for Dad to get the position of general manager of the Kings.

In this alliance, the insiders who can compete with Dad can be counted with a single slap.

"Let's talk about it, let's see the situation first."

"We must win the championship this season. After winning the championship, we will think about it in the long run." The old man said with a smile.

Davidson's words still moved his heart, but he really had the idea of ​​retiring, so he had to think about it now.

……

Kings general manager Reynolds called Davidson again the next day.

Davidson naturally declined Reynolds' invitation. Now that the Kings are in a period of turmoil, let alone a promise from a chief assistant coach, even if Davidson is promised to be a head coach, Davidson will definitely not be able to go.

Because once Reynolds steps down, all promises will become dead letters.

……

In the blink of an eye, the annual All-Star Weekend is about to begin again.

Jaylen Rose was named to the Rookie Challenge lineup.

It may be that the team names of the All-Star Passionate Team and the Talented Team did not receive a good response last time, so this Rookie Challenge adopts the team names of the White Team and the Green Team, and still all rookies participate.

Jaylen Rose was selected to the green team. Although his performance was not bad, the white team won in the end, and Eddie Jones won the MVP of the Rookie Challenge.

In the next All-Star Game, Davidson came to watch the game in person this time.

Because the Nets' record ranks first in the Eastern Conference, Dad is qualified to lead the Eastern Conference All-Star team this year.

Not only did Dad lead the team to the All-Star team, Muresan was also selected to the All-Star lineup this year. Although he was only a substitute player, as a second-year rookie and a rookie center in the center's heyday, it was not easy to be selected as an All-Star in the second year.

Coleman and Kenny Anderson, the All-Star starters last season, are not so lucky this season.

The Magic's record soared this season, and Penny Hardaway directly squeezed out Coleman and got the starting position of the All-Star forward in the Eastern Conference.

As for the backcourt, Reggie Miller and this year's rookie Grant Hill won the starting qualifications.

Hill has been amazing this year. Not only did he get the All-Star starting qualification in his rookie season, what's even more frightening is that he was also the top voter in this year's All-Star voting!
This rookie with a gorgeous style of play and comprehensive skills is called Jordan's successor. Although he has only played for half a season, his popularity is quite hot, and the number of fans is scary.

Davidson also asked Dad what he thought of Grant Hill.

After all, Hill plays for the Pistons, and this is Dad's stronghold...

The old man just shook his head. His evaluation of Grant Hill was that he was good, but he was too flashy and not a practical star.

Take a closer look at the players that Dad coached in the Pistons. They are all unpretentious players. There is no player like Grant Hill at all.

Davidson is quite convinced of his father's vision. Since his father has said so, Davidson is naturally not very optimistic about Hill's future prospects.

Dad has had a profound influence on Davidson since he was a child, and now Davidson is not optimistic about these fancy players...

Logically speaking, at Davidson's age, he would definitely like players with a flamboyant style of play, but Davidson is obviously a bit special, and his taste is a bit old-fashioned...

Muresan entered the All-Star lineup. Although his performance on the court was not very impressive, after the whole game, he only scored 4 points and 4 rebounds, but Davidson still received a reward of [-] evolution coins.

What puzzled Davidson was that it had been nearly two years since he had been qualified as a buyer, yet he had never triggered the task of obtaining items such as the Mammoth Heart.

I asked Sledgehammer and Old Wang, but they couldn't figure it out...

Davidson wondered if the teaching assistants weren't qualified enough to trigger such tasks.
