Chapter 123: Unstoppable! Invincible!
What Lin Yu wants is for everyone to give a thumbs up and say a "good" word when they mention the Clippers.
"How much did it cost to buy the team?" Sophia's main concern right now is this issue.
"55 million, not too much, within my plan." Lin Yu said with a smile.
"55 million, well, since this is the case, it will take a lot of money to buy players, I hope you don't feel distressed when the time comes."
Hearing Sophia's words, Lin Yu smiled: "Hehe, since I have decided to build the Clippers into a strong team, then I won't care about money." ”
Seeing the man so bold, Sophia felt her heart skip a beat.
"In that case, what are your plans?" Sophia asked.
Lin Yu pondered for a while and said: "I don't have any plans, I must win this year's champion lottery or list eye lottery, and then win more signatures as soon as possible, I am ready to select a few people among the rookies." ”
"Rookie? Lin, although the rookies may have a lot of potential, but they are inexperienced after all, and the draft is like gambling, and no one knows what these rookies will grow into when they enter the league, so I think we should choose from other teams. Sophia said worriedly, "Well, okay, let's choose players from other teams as much as possible, for the current Clippers players, if you think you can stay, if you can't, trade them, but there is one point, the players who stay must have a heart to compete for the championship, otherwise we don't want to, I don't want to have my own people there to pull back on the way to the championship in the future." Lin Yu said.
Sophia nodded, agreeing with Lin Yu's words.
"Anything else?"
"It's nothing, the main thing is that you have to get a first-round pick or a top pick before the draft, only then can the Clippers sail, otherwise, everything will be in vain." Lin Yu thought for a while and said.
Sophia listened carefully, but when she saw the evil smile on the corner of Lin Yu's mouth, Sophia's heart beat faster.
"You??? What are you laughing at? Sophia asked, her eyes dodging.
"Sophia, I'm thinking I've laid everything out, so what are you going to do?" Lin Yu looked at Sophia seriously and said.
Hearing Lin Yu say this, Sophia breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she felt a faint loss in her heart.
Shaking her head slightly, she raised her head to look at Lin Yu, and Sophia said with a smile: "What I have to do is to execute your plan perfectly." ”
Lin Yu shook his head speechlessly, thinking to himself, if that's the case, what am I using you for? Serving the ancestors?
However, Lin Yu categorically would not say this.
??????
Although they don't have any opinions about the other teams in the Clippers changing ownership league, the Clippers' next move has made them feast, first take Noam? Nixon and a second-round pick traded a first-round pick from the Trail Blazers, which left many people puzzled. Although Nixon is not very strong, he has a keen ability to observe the court, and many times he can give the most correct player from the most appropriate time.
Immediately after the Clippers have Tom? Chambers traded the notorable foul player with a third-round pick in exchange for a second-round pick.
Most people still understand this trade, but although Tom Chambers is a famous foul player, his ability is still good, so it is difficult to say who takes advantage of this deal.
Although the Clippers didn't make a big move, the two deals still raised eyebrows.
When Lin Yu knew that the team got the Trail Blazers' first-round pick, he immediately became happy, and getting the Trail Blazers' first-round pick meant that Lin Yu was very clear, indicating that the Clippers would get Jordan, the leader of the 84 golden generation, and the NBA legend.
However, when Lin Yu got the list of team personnel, Lin Yu was even happier.
Bill Wharton, a basketball superstar comparable to the basketball emperor Chamberlain, was still surprised to see his name.
The most important thing is that Bill Wharton is a center, for the center, Lin Yu has had a headache for several days, there are only a few famous centers in history, Olajuwon is impossible, the Rockets will definitely choose Olajuwon to play what twin tower tactics, Lin Yu doesn't understand this tactic, but he still scoffs, with Jordan, that broken tactic is a fart.
I didn't expect to see Bill Walton in the player list, which was a surprise for Lin Yu.
With these two people, Lin Yu basically doesn't have to worry about the team's affairs, but Evra's words made him have to think about it again.
"Honey, I think the Clippers still need a head coach."
Regarding the head coach, Lin Yu doesn't know very well, he only knows a head coach Zen master Phil Jackson, but Lin Yu doesn't know where this Zen master is now.
For Phil Jackson, Lin Yu is not very clear, only knows that this coach has created two dynasties, one is the Bulls dynasty and the other is the Lakers dynasty, and he wears a total of 11 championship rings on his hands, but Lin Yu doesn't know anything about his other news.
Phil Jackson, arguably a legend among NBA coaches, is not outstanding as a player, but as a coach, it can be said that few people have the same ability as him.
As a coach, Phil Jackson won 11 championship rings in Lin Yu's previous life, surpassing Auerbach's exclusive record, but as a player, he only won 2 championship rings, although his strength is good.
Phil Jackson coached the Bulls in 1989, led the Bulls to six championships, and set the best record of his coaching career with the Bulls, a 72-10 NBA record.
A great team has to be run by a great coach. This is what Lin Yu thought.
For Zen masters, like Jordan, Lin Yu is also determined to win.
For Phil Jackson, Lin Yu personally went to help others when they were not successful, and he would let others remember you for a lifetime, even if this was ruthless and bad.
"I know a guy who definitely has the ability to build the Clippers into a strong team, or even a dynasty." For Phil Jackson, Lin Yuke is very confident.
"Who?" The two women asked at the same time.
"Phil Jackson."
"Phil Jackson?" Both of them were puzzled at the same time.
Lin Yu smiled, not satisfying the curiosity of the two.
For Phil Jackson, Lin Yu's curiosity is not much less than that of the two girls, and it is because of this that Lin Yu decided to invite the other party in person.
The Zen master likes Buddhism, and Lin Yu happens to be Chinese, so he knows more or less about Buddhism, so the two are at least not too embarrassed to meet.
Phil Jackson's behavior is different from that of ordinary Coach Zhao, and the rebellious Jackson has a gentle appearance and extraordinary appearance, especially after growing a beard, he looks old and steady, like a respected "godfather". Jackson's favorite places to go for an away game are libraries and museums.
The first meeting with him was at the home of the Zen master in Albany Town, and now Phil Jackson is the head coach of the CBA Albany team, if there is no Lin Yu, then Phil Jackson will stay here for five years before he becomes an assistant coach to the Bulls, and finally becomes the head coach of the Bulls and becomes a famous Zen master in the league.
"You're very welcome, sir." Seeing Lin Yu, Phil Jackson looked surprised.
Although I like to study or not, this is the first time I have dealt with Orientals in the United States.
"Hello, Phil, don't mind if I call you that." Lin Yu said with a smile.
"Huh." Although he didn't know the identity of the person who came, Phil Jackson still smiled and said: "A name is just a title, you can call it anything." ”
Lin Yu Khan, this is really a bit of a Buddhist taste.
"Let me introduce myself first, my name is Lin Yu, I am from China, and I am able to sit here and chat with you today, as a team owner."
"Team owner?" Phil Jackson was a little surprised.
"yes, you've probably heard about the Clippers changing hands." Lin Yu smiled faintly.
"Oh? Did you buy the Clippers? Phil Jackson said uncertainly.
"Yes." Lin Yu nodded and said.
"It surprised me, but why would you do that?" Phil Jackson said.
"Because I love basketball and I don't want the Clippers to be a belly team in Sterling's hands all the time, and I don't like challenges." Lin Yu said with a smile.
"Love a challenge?" I still know what Lin Yu said earlier about Phil Jackson, in the league, Sterling is a famous miser, if the Clippers can have good results in his hands, he will be a hell, but he doesn't understand what Lin Yu said about challenging Phil.
"Don't you think it's rewarding to build a team that has always been a big team?" Lin Yu asked with a smile.
Phil Jackson smiled, yes, it was very rewarding.
"But what does it have to do with me?" Phil Jackson asked.
"Every strong team has a unique style, and that style is sometimes influenced by the players, but ultimately it's the head coach who determines the style of the team, hehe, I wonder what style you would make this team develop if you were to coach the Clippers?" Lin Yu asked.
Phil Jackson had already guessed when Lin Yu said that he was the owner of the Clippers team, maybe the other party asked him to go to the Clippers as an assistant coach or something, but he didn't expect the young owner to ask such a question.
Although I don't know why, Phil Jackson thought for a moment and replied: "To be honest, my pursuit is to win, so my team must be a team that is unstoppable." ”
Invincible, invincible, this is exactly what Lin Yu wants!
