0047: [Nobody Likes McHaney]
Li Zhen didn't want to talk to Jamilin about his rival Mario Chammos for the time being.
But when Li Zhen talked about the issue of treatment, Jemilin showed amazing peace, and he showed the idea of 'harmony is precious' in his blood.
'I'm going to take what I'm doing seriously and after the season I'm going to look for new opportunities in other teams. I've had good communication with a couple of teams, so I don't want to get into trouble with my old club. You know, the American basketball circle is actually a very closed circle, and we are outsiders. ”
Jamielin's smile was full of helplessness and a hint of 'resignation'.
This made Li Zhen suddenly think of his homeland on the other side of the ocean, where most of the people who grew up were so kind, so valuing harmony, and even being patient.
Li Zhen thought about it, when he was interviewed before, he also adhered to the Chinese style of doing things to a large extent, and he gave face to Coach McHaney, who was a deserter, everywhere, and was unwilling to poke at his weakness.
He did this in the hope that everyone would get along in harmony.
However, when he returned, he picked peaches directly. And there is no intention of living in peace at all, and he is jealous and throws Coach Jemilin, who has made great contributions, directly into the video room and does the work at the bottom of the team.
If it weren't for his magical performance on the court, he would probably have thrown himself to the bench instead of saying anything about the two-core treatment.
That's how Americans think. If they can suppress you, and you don't resist, they will continue to oppress, all kinds of extreme operations, and constantly step on your bottom line.
"Are you really willing to give away the fruits of your hard work? How much sweat, how much wisdom, how much effort do we spend in exchange for today's stage that the whole United States is concerned about, why do we give up the center stage to others to dance poorly? Li Zhen stared at Jemilin seriously.
"Brother, this is America. There is nothing wrong with us being outsiders, but the only thing we can do if we want to gain a foothold here is to unleash our aggressiveness, play by their rules, even override their rules, to resist, to plunder, to fight!! Blindly compromising and blindly tolerating will only make them feel that we are incapable and unconfident. ”
"I'll take care of everything."
Li Zhen patted Jamilin on the shoulder, took the laptop in his hand and walked out.
Bruce has changed.
Jamie Lin looked at Li Zhen's back, and he suddenly realized that the former restrained and friendly, hard-working, but uncontentious Bruce Lee was gone. In its place is a new, enterprising, tenacious Bruce Lee. Inexplicably, the waves in Jemilin's heart were stirred, and he stepped forward to follow, and he had a feeling of yearning.
He's right.
Jamilin gritted his teeth and clenched his fists forward.
From this moment on, his concept finally changed.
As Li Zhen said, yellow-skinned is indeed an outsider in the American basketball world, especially in the NCAA league without commercial involvement, and it is even more vulnerable. If you blindly compromise and act as a good person, the final result will inevitably be to be squeezed out.
Now, the two have finally teamed up to create an NCAA miracle. If you just give it up, you may not be able to play so well in the future if you go to other teams. And, most importantly... Who knows if any other team has the same Coach McHaney.
When the way of thinking is opened, people will suddenly become enlightened. And there is a momentum of breaking the kettle.
The Chinese have never lacked the courage to compete, let alone the courage to break the net. They just think that 'harmony is precious' is the best way to deal with it, and when this way of dealing with it is destroyed by those self-righteous guys, then who is the idle person? There are many people who are generous and sad!
……
McHaney ran to play Kupchak for about twenty minutes before returning to the team, and he happened to meet Li Zhen: "Hey, Bruce, I heard you were looking for me?" ”
Although he received some not-so-good reviews from Kupchak about Li Zhen, he remained enthusiastic about Li Zhen. After all... This guy has done wonders in four consecutive games, and if he can be used to reach the round of 16, it will definitely be a career to brag about, and it will be much easier to return to the NBA when the time comes.
However, Li Zhen did not continue to talk to him, but said, "It's okay now." ”
He then returned to his hotel next to the arena.
At the hotel, he met Spurs scout Kevin George and slam dunk reporter Richmond.
As the three chatted together, Kevin George told him, "Our general manager, RC Buford, will be coming over tomorrow to check on you, along with our chief scout, Sam Presti." ”
When Kevin George said these two names, Richmond instantly exclaimed, "Oh my God, RC Buford!" ”
It's a thunderous name.
Li Zhen didn't know much about Buford's deeds, and then Richmond told Li Zhen about RC Buford's resume as a full-time reporter.
He is known as the dog of the spurs, which means that he has a keen sense of smell and a genius for trading. Now the two low-pick stars who have grown into the pillars of the Spurs, Tony Parker and Ginobili, were both selected by him. In fact, even Popovich thought at the time that Tony Parker was just a short, slightly faster guard. be
Buford didn't have any great results as a player. But since joining Larry Brown's coaching staff at the University of Kansas as an assistant coach in 1983, his basketball journey began. He helped Brown lead the Pine Eagles to the Final Four in 1986 and the NCAA championship in 1988. Then, in 1988, he followed Brown to San Antonio.
He worked for Larry Brown for 11 years as an assistant coach and then Popovich. Immediately after Popovich was appointed general manager, he was quickly promoted to deputy general manager and chief scout for the Spurs, and now he is the vice president and general manager of the Spurs.
Buford rarely makes public appearances. But a week ago, he said in an interview: "What we're playing now is not basketball basics, we're almost doing basketball philosophy." ”
His words were dismissed as a smug show-off, but Popovich was very sure of his companion: "Many people can't judge what competitiveness is, but Buford can. He knows who will stand tall with a fatal blow, who can withstand criticism and who can't, and who can continue to fight in the face of adversity. ”
So, when Richmond learned that RC Buford and chief scout Presti would be in the audience for this game, he was extremely shocked. He realized... The little guard who bumped into the USC basketball arena that day really started to become a basketball star in the limelight.
In the casual chat that followed, Li Zhen told Richmond that head coach McHaney had returned to the team and changed the tactical system.
This makes both Kevin George and Richmond angry, and they bluntly say that McHaney is a stealer, a selfish and jealous.
No one likes such a person.
Richmond wrote a detailed critique that afternoon and posted it online, hoping to be extremely disgusted by McHaney's actions, and he described in detail how Stanford had broken through the siege and worked miracles since the Great War in Southern California. He emphasized the role of Coach Jamilin and Lee Zhen... Now McHaney and TJ Wharton, two deserters, have come back to snatch the fruits of victory, and Coach Jamilin has been sent to the video room. l
Is it tolerable or unbearable!
He poured all his anger and indignation into his words, and it resonated strongly for a moment.
And what he didn't expect was...... Charles Barkley retweeted the article and talked about it on a national airline that night.
Obviously, no one likes a deserter coach who returns to a successful team and then takes the lead and reaps all the accolades.
