- "Lelin, take care of your father! Why is he like this when it comes to things related to the team?"
"Dad likes basketball very much. I heard that he was a member of the school team in high school. He has always had a basketball dream. He finally bought a team. It's normal to be excited."
"But it's been half a year, is it so long-lasting?"
"Huh? What?"
"nothing."
July has arrived, and when the management and coaching staff have decided who they will be, it is Howard Schultz who is doing the interviewing, signing, etc.
Zhang Hao is asking Pelinka to investigate where the person he is looking for is.
In the past two years, information and communication technology has just ushered in a leap forward, and it has become easier to find people. Even if Zhang Hao only provided a last name, knew that he was a junior in college, and did not even know what his last name was, Pelinka still found the person. , the information has been clearly investigated, and all his family circumstances have been investigated.
Sam Presti, 23 years old, studied social relations at Virginia Wesleyan College in the 1995-96 and 1996-97 academic years, while playing in the NCAA Division III league. After confirming that he did not have the talent to become a professional player, he transferred to another school. He went to Emerson University in Boston to major in resource management. At the same time, he also worked part-time as a recruiter scout for the Boston College Eagles, an NCAA Division I school, helping Boston College find talented high school students outside the major high school rankings.
His outstanding personal abilities have attracted the attention of some teams
These information are consistent with Zhang Hao¡¯s impression that Presti was signed by the Spurs as a scout after graduating from college and strongly recommended Spurs general manager RC Buford to select Parker.
If it weren't for Presti's strong recommendation, the troika would be gone. Popovich didn't look down on Parker at first but he didn't think much of him in the end. Parker was the only one among the troika who failed to end up with the Spurs. of his career.
¡° This kind of talent, when Zhang is rebuilding the lineup, cannot be taken away by other teams to avoid trouble.
Another point.
According to Pelinka's investigation, Presti has only attracted the attention of some teams, but he is too young, only 23 years old, and no team has officially contacted him, but Zhang Hao knows that draft vision is such a thing , has little to do with age.
At this stage, he doesn¡¯t need a scout with great draft vision, but twenty years from now? Thirty years from now?
Now, establish the identity of the "initial working partner", which will be very useful later when he becomes the coach.
Zhang Hao originally wanted Larry Harris to do this kind of thing, but Howard Schultz rushed to do it! I took a plane and ran to Boston!
Larry Harris, Alvan Adams, Butch Baird, as well as the assistants and secretaries brought by Larry Harris, except for Alvan Adams who officially served as the general manager consultant for the first time, everyone else is professional , even Alvan Adams¡¯ connections cannot be ignored. He is a member of Colangelo¡¯s family. With their joining, the operations of various departments of the Sonics management have become smoother.
Butch Baird, an old man, acts as lubricant, Larry Harris relied on his father's relationship to become the general manager, Alvan Adams has connections the combination is not bad, I can't say how good it is, but there is nothing Just pass it.
At this time, Howard Schultz couldn't find a place to play, so he simply came over to kill him when he had time.
The big boss who owns more than 70% of the team¡¯s shares does odd jobs
Corporal Li Xian asked him to intern in the SuperSonics' scouting department after graduation. After the reconstruction was completed, it would be good to help him with gold-plating. After another twenty years, he understood that he did not have the talent to be a general manager, he would be more than 40 years old. Years old, please come back and be a full-time scout, just like Butch Baird now, perfect.

Silver Fox received news from colleagues of the Chinese Men¡¯s Basketball National Team ¨C under the leadership of Yao Ming and Hu Weidong, the Chinese Men¡¯s Basketball Team won the 20th Asian Championship.
For the Chinese team, this Asian Championship is just about winning a championship.
The Asian Championships are held every two years. Among them, the one before the World Championships is very important because it is related to the tickets for the World Championships.
But the one before the Olympic Games has a much smaller effect If the Chinese team did not get the top two in the Asian Games last year, it would need this. If the last Asian Championship was a World Championship ticket battle, then this one will be a failure in the Olympic Games. If you have already obtained Olympic tickets in the Asian Games, your qualifications for the qualifying round will be postponed.
Precisely because they won the Asian Games championship last year, the World Championships Blue Association arranged for Wang Fei, a domestic coach, to lead the team and train.
After getting to know the current situation of the Chinese men¡¯s basketball team, Silver Fox planned this part of the work.?It started.
There was no surprise. The first name David Stern read out on the stage was Kobe Bryant!
Kobe Bryant successfully chose to join the NBA with the first overall pick in the 1999 NBA Draft.
Instead of picking Kobe, the Grizzlies selected another talented player from Duke University-Elton Brand with the second overall pick.
The Hornets selected Baron Davis with the 3rd overall pick, and the Clippers selected Steve Francis with the 4th overall pick.
The Raptors selected Lamar Odom with the 5th overall pick, and the Magic selected Jonathan Bender with the 6th overall pick.
The Cavaliers selected Andre Miller with the 7th overall pick, and the Wizards selected Richard Hamilton with the 8th overall pick.
When we got to the ninth pick, the trade came!
The SuperSonics and the Timberwolves reached a deal. The Timberwolves used their 14th and 17th picks in the first round to acquire the Sonics' 9th pick.
The Timberwolves used the ninth overall pick to select Wally Szczerbiak from the University of Miami.
With the second lottery pick, the Cavaliers selected Shawn Marion with the 10th overall pick, and the Hawks selected Jason Terry with the 11th overall pick.
The Raptors, who had their second lottery pick, selected another Duke star Trajan Langton with the 12th pick, and the Warriors selected Corey Maggette with the 13th pick, but then Trade him to the Magic.
With the 14th pick, the SuperSonics selected Ron Artest from St. John's University in New York
¡¡
"These old men don't think it's a big deal! They were given so many options, and they chose the one that was the most stupid!"
Zhang Hao also came to the draft, watching who Larry Harris and Doug Collins would pick in the SuperSonics draft office.
He has considered all the names he provided to Howard Schultz, and the high-ranking options are all players with stronger immediate combat capabilities.
Originally, everyone in the office was waiting quietly, but after Hamilton was selected by the Wizards with the 8th overall pick, Larry Harris immediately called and completed the deal.
That is to say, the first option discussed by the management and coaching staff is Hamilton, and the second option is Artest.
Not long after, the 17th pick of the first round arrived, and Larry Harris submitted the second envelope.
Zhang Hao didn¡¯t ask, he just looked at it. Soon, David Stern read out James Posey¡¯s name.
?Defensive type means combat power!
With the 21st pick, another envelope was handed out. This time, no one came on stage to wear a hat. David Stern announced that the Sonics had selected Andrei Kirilenko from Russia
"Defensive player, defensive player, defensive player not bad, but Kirilenko said during the trial that he still had a two-year contract with the Russian Super League and could not come for the time being. However, this was noted in the draft application. , so he won't turn down reports to become a free agent after one year like other first-round picks
I see! Their first target was Hamilton. If they couldn't select Hamilton, they split the No. 9 pick to select two defensive outsiders. Kirilenko will be used as a replacement in the future
The old fox¡¯s son really knows how to save money! This salary structure is well arranged! These days, few team managements have the awareness to receive rookie bonuses!
However, there is a prerequisite for receiving the rookie bonus. This rookie either has immediate combat ability, or can quickly convert his talent into strength within one to two years. Otherwise, it is in vain. Thanks to me, the list given to me is all with good immediate combat ability. Yes, as expected of me. "
With the 9th and 21st picks, Zhang Hao does not have to ask who to pick, he can just choose from the given list.
After selecting the 21st overall pick, the first round has nothing to do with their SuperSonics team.
They only have the 8th pick in the second round left. For this pick, Zhang Hao made it clear who he wanted to pick. Even if the coaching staff and management were the only ones who saw Ginobili's actual performance and didn't care that much, he made it clear. Who to choose.
¡°With the draft pick at this position in my hand, no one can take away the person I want!¡±
After waiting for more than half an hour, soon, at 9:54 pm, NBA Vice President Stu Jackson came to the stage again.
"I announce that the Seattle SuperSonics selected with the 8th overall pick in the second round of the 1999 NBA Draft Manu Ginobili from the Vitus Basketball Club of Bologna, Italy!"
I like to play basketball too much. What should I do if I am too powerful? What should I do to update the fastest. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
