Chapter 479: Simple, Straightforward, and Rude

Regardless of the outside world, Arthur Boleyn's global popularity has risen to a new level, and more attention has been paid to the young English earl.

However, for the existing Nets management, this day at the end of April is undoubtedly at a loss, in a panic, because they have not seen their new owner so far...

Pedal Pedal –

The Newark Nets in New Jersey, dressed in a black crisp suit, the tall and burly Bob Myers looked indifferent, surrounded by a group of subordinates in suits and leather shoes, and swaggered into the spacious and bright hall.

"Sir, may I ask you... ”

Originally, everyone in the hall looked at Bob and his party with puzzled and thoughtful eyes, and a blonde with blue eyes, beautiful facial features, and a professional skirt at the front desk immediately smiled and greeted him to ask.

"I'm Bob Myers, the new general manager of the Nets, please inform Mr. Rodthorne and all the team management, I'll be waiting for them in the conference room, ten minutes later, a meeting!"

Myers said to the front desk with a faint but sharp gaze, his tone full of undoubtedness, and then, under the guidance of several smiling former Nets management who came from the elevator quickly, strode towards the elevator.

Looking at the backs of this group of people, everyone in the hall looked at each other with apprehension and worry, and whispered together, while the beautiful woman at the front desk who received the task was stepping on high heels and trot at the workbench with an anxious face, and hurriedly picked up the phone and began to inform Mr. Rod Thorne.

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Well, I see, thank you, Hannah. ”

In the general manager's office, his face was full of loss and his spirit was a little low, and Rod Thorne, who was full of wry smiles, hung up the phone after speaking, and then sighed helplessly.

It all came too suddenly, especially for him, the general manager.

It's no secret that the Nets are going to be traded, I originally thought it would be the Bear Country Tyrant to take over, so Rodthorne also connected with the other party early, and surrendered early, hoping to keep his throne, even if he can't keep it, he hopes to be kicked out of the game with less embarrassment.

However, the situation changed abruptly, Xiong Guohao was kicked out, and the English earl became the master.

Seriously, the management who was already ready to welcome Xiong Guohao was completely blinded and lost his square inch, and while people were panicked, they were also full of resentment towards the original owner of the Nets, and they didn't even reveal a little news to them...

Rod Thorne got up from the boss's chair with some difficulty, walked to the coat mirror with heavy steps, spread out his palms and gently smoothed the hair on his back, looked at himself in the mirror, smiled bitterly, buttoned up his suit, turned around the office with reluctant eyes, and then walked out of the office without hesitation.

He knew that there was no stage for him to show it anymore!

Exit in disgrace!

The conference room, the door was open, Miles and the team he brought sat at the head of the conference table, Miles looked at the hurried footsteps with an indifferent expression, walked in quickly, and nodded to him to greet the former Nets executives, Miles did not get up, just smiled and stretched out his hand to the empty seats.

"You may be seated, and the meeting will begin shortly. ”

The original executives didn't seem to care about the arrogance of Miles, the new general manager, and they all nodded and smiled, and then sat in their seats in silence.

As more and more people arrived, the atmosphere in the conference room became more and more depressing.

"Sorry, I'm lateβ€”" Rod Thorne said with a smile as he stepped into the conference room and saw the tall young Miles who was staring at his main seat.

Miles smiled and stood up, ignoring the others who followed him, took two steps towards Rod Thorne, who was walking briskly towards him, shook hands and smiled, "Hello, Mr. Thorne, I'm Bob Myers." ”

"Hello, Mr. Miles. ”

"Please be seatedβ€”" Bob Myers smiled and gestured to the first seat to the right of his seat.

"Thank you. Rod Thorne did not hesitate, and calmly accepted and sat down at the head of the main seat.

Miles walked to the main seat, looked around sharply, raised his wrist, looked at his watch, and then said in an indifferent tone: "Close the door, have a meeting!"

No one asked what to do with those who didn't arrive, and everyone remained silent, knowing that those who didn't arrive on time and were locked out were already unemployed.

"News I think you should all know that Mr. Arthur Boleyn is the new owner of the Nets, thank you Mr. Boleyn for trusting me to be the general manager of the Nets, sorry, Mr. Thorne, thank you for everything you have done to the Nets in the past... ”

Hearing Miles' final decision, even Rod Thorne, who knew in his heart that this would be the result, still felt a burst of suffocating discomfort, forced himself to squeeze out an ugly wry smile, and nodded at Miles.

"Based on Mr. Boleyn's comprehensive considerations, the team will be changed, and the personnel will be adjusted, and the decision is as follows - Bob Myers will be the general manager, and the director of operations will be 。。。。。。 β€œ

Bob Myers was expressionless, and began to read out the personnel appointments in an indifferent tone, as the list continued to come out, many of the original management people in the conference room were pale, shaking their heads and sighing bitterly, and some people who did not read their names were worried and couldn't sit still.

Everyone didn't expect that the new general manager would be so impatient and resolute, regardless of the fact that he began to take the lead in the personnel operation, isn't he afraid of plunging the team into chaos?

Afraid, of course afraid!

But Myers couldn't help it, when the press conference ended, in the car after leaving the NBA headquarters building, the owner Mr. Boleyn looked at him sharply and said to him in an unquestionable tone: "You only have two days, and in two days, I will inspect my Nets, remember, it's mine!"

To be honest, when he didn't become the general manager of the team, Miles was excited, excited, and felt that his fate had taken a new turn, however, now, all he had was pressure, especially in the face of overwhelming doubts, ridicule, and ridicule all over the world, he felt for the first time what is called overwhelming pressure!

Young, inexperienced, mad Earl's gamble, the Nets with a new owner are dead before they even start...

Pressures and expectations come from both the self and the outside world. Everyone wants to be able to achieve a balance in their lives and get home and put it away, but those words linger in Miles's head, every minute. It's tough. TV debut

If all this pressure from the periphery is just a mirage, then this broken can and broken Nets team is a fish belly team that can't be real.

To be honest, let Myers select the five teams with the worst NBA culture, and the New Jersey Nets in the past are definitely among them, both in terms of team culture and team building ideas.

What do you expect from a team that doesn't even have the fighting spirit to go after a bad one? You must know that blindly playing and waiting means that the team will build an edifice on the swamp. And this is obviously an extremely dangerous thing.

So, Myers' next move, in addition to making the most of this year's three valuable draft picks, is to ask the team to pursue wins, even if they don't make the playoffs in the end, to create a winning culture before the core grows!

It's hard to imagine how far a young-focused team can go, but in Myers' opinion, at least their performances this season should be amazing enough to make fans feel how far they have improved. At least in Myers's opinion, it is necessary to resolutely dissociate itself from the bad team!

The good news is that the Nets are not useless garbage, not only do they have three draft picks this year, but more importantly, the team has a lot of salary space, which undoubtedly has the foundation to build a long-term prosperity for a strong team.

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Boss, this year's draft, we have two picks in the first round and one pick in the second round, one of which was a first-round pick on February 19, 08 when Jason Kidd was traded for the Mavericks' 2010 pick.

There was also the 7/22/08 Marcus Williams trade for the Warriors' 2011 first-round pick.

Four good signings in two years is enough for us to rebuild the team, and of course, the young team needs enough time to grow... ”

When Bob Myers finished the reform meeting, the gifts that should be given away, the ones that should be laid off, and the managers of several key departments were replaced by people from his team, after consulting some important documents of the Nets, Myers rushed to the owner's mansion non-stop to make a systematic report.

Arthur is still very satisfied with Bob Myers being able to complete the task assigned to him so vigorously, he is not afraid that his subordinates are young, the most afraid is that he has no talent, as long as he has talent, he dares to gamble, and now the whole United States is not saying that he is a British gambler with a lot of money and stupidity?

"Hehe, I'll give you plenty of time to grow, the championship is our goal, but it doesn't have to force you to achieve it right away, to be honest, I can't say that the future of the Nets is promising, after all, we really don't have a core player with great potential at the moment. However, I will be patient and wait for you to surprise me with a big surprise. "Arthur, even if he is a pseudo-fan, knows the role of a supercore in the team, such as the black mamba.

"Boss, we may not be able to acquire a core player with great potential!" Bob Myers' eyes were extremely bright, and he looked at his boss with burning eyes, and said words that made Arthur very interested.

"Let's talk about it!" Although Arthur was very interested, he also had a mental preparation in advance, he didn't want to spend a lot of money to buy an all-star back.

"Boss, here's the thing, I just got a call from the general manager of the Golden State Warriors in order to keep a 2011 lotto protected first-round pick that they had promised to trade us, and the Warriors were willing to give us two future second-round picks, and the one that we were owed before would be turned into a 2012 lotto protected first-round pick, and they would be given to us for a year... ”

"Huh?" Arthur frowned when he heard the topic of draft picks, and then asked, "From the beginning, what the hell is going on?"
