"Hello? Jack? How's it going? ”

"I'm sorry, Wang, but there's no news yet, so wait."

"Okay...... Thank you. ”

Hanging up the phone, Wang Xiao couldn't help but sigh.

Although it was expected that it would not be so easy, the current situation is still too bad.

It has been more than a month since he selected Durant and was fired from the Trail Blazers, except for Portland fans who occasionally spit on the ground angrily when they see Durant's promotional posters, the entire NBA sports circle seems to have completely forgotten the existence of Wang Xiao.

Naturally, in the NBA, the exposure rate of players is much higher than that of coaches, and more than 95% of the NBA audience may not be able to call the names of all 30 team head coaches, and those star coaches with outstanding abilities will be remembered, such as Phil Jackson and Popovich.

Wang Xiao is a stupid head coach who has done stupid things in the eyes of everyone, and he is just mentioned as an object of ridicule after dinner, and when the media no longer mentions his name, people naturally forget about it.

But this is just for ordinary fans, in the eyes of those who work in the professional basketball industry, Wang Xiao is definitely blacklisted.

A head coach can ignore the team owner and general manager, insist on going his own way or even go against them, which team dares to use this kind of head coach? The whole team hasn't been made into a miasma by him?

A five-year career as an assistant coach with the Trail Blazers should have been his illustrious resume, but now it has become a reason for major teams to reject him.

The NBA teams don't have to think about it, even the NBDL teams don't want to use Wang Xiao, and the major basketball schools in the NCAA also shook their heads and refused after hearing Wang Xiao's name.

"It's a bit of a big problem......"

The situation is much more complicated than Wang Xiao imagined.

This is not only the reason why I died in the draft, but also a very important reason...... I'm Asian.

In this time and space, another self can climb to the position of head coach of the Trail Blazers little by little, but this does not mean that the entire American basketball circle has recognized the status of Asian basketball.

The fact that an Asian guy came to the United States and wanted to be a head coach here is incredible in itself.

Frowning deeply, Wang Xiao began to hesitate a little.

"Do you want to ...... First go back to China to find a job as a head coach, activate the system and then say anything else? ”

The activation requirement of the system is to be the head coach of a team that is recognized by the public.

The teams in the CBA are undoubtedly absolutely qualified.

Although he can't get along in the United States, he has spent time in the NBA, and he should still be able to attract the interest of some teams after returning home.

And first go back to China to make a name for yourself, and then look for an opportunity to return to the NBA, at least it is much better than waiting here stupidly, and the CBA can be regarded as a simple mode compared to the NBA or even the NBDL, which is also convenient for him to exercise.

Just when Wang Xiao was hesitating, an unexpected email made him fall into excitement.

The email was sent by the Miami Heat's management team.

In the email, the other party said that after receiving Wang Xiao's resume, he thought about it carefully and finally decided to interview Wang Xiao.

The Miami Heat are actually interested in themselves?

Wang Xiao himself felt incredible.

You know, last season, the Heat only stepped on the Mavericks to win the championship, although last season was very embarrassing to be swept out of the first round, becoming the first defending champion to be swept out of the first round since 2000, but even so, the Heat is still one of the league's powerhouses, much better than the Trail Blazers.

Wang Xiao, who is familiar with the plot, knows that the Heat's record in the following season is even worse, injuries and deliberate messing, the Heat only won 15 games, and then the team's head coach Pat Riley retreated behind the scenes to accept the position of general manager of the Heat, and finally successfully recruited James and Bosh in 10 years, forming a triumvirate that shocked the entire league.

Looking at it this way, it is not surprising that the Heat want to find a head coach, this season the Heat are ready to put it bad, and Pat Riley has long wanted to take a back seat.

Wang Xiao is likely to be the one who was chosen to take the blame.

But he doesn't care, as long as he can be the NBA head coach to activate the system, what about the blame? Anyway, when the time comes, he will be the head coach, and he will have the final say on how the team plays, once he leads the team to play a result, even if the team expells him and proves his ability, he doesn't have to worry about not finding the team!

After receiving the invitation, Wang Xiao immediately booked a ticket and rushed to Miami, where the Heat team is located.

After arriving at the Heat team, Wang Xiao was surprised again, and the person who interviewed him was actually the head coach of the Miami Heat, legendary coach Pat Riley.

Looking at the middle-aged man sitting at the back of the desk, unsmiling, Wang Xiao was surprisingly calm and calm.

"Hello, Mr. Riley, I'm Wang Xiao."

"You are that Mr. Wang Xiao......"

Pat Riley looked up at Wang Xiao, a gleam flashing in his eyes.

"You may be seated."

After Wang Xiao sat down, Riley said slowly: "I've read your resume, what about your experience and what you did at the draft not long ago...... I'm curious, and now I'm asking you a question, what can you bring to this team if you become the head coach of the Heat? ”

"Victory!" Wang Xiao is concise and to the point, and in the face of this legendary coach of the NBA, he is not cowardly at all and seems extremely confident. "I can bring victory after victory to the Heat, and I can bring championship trophies to the Heat."

"Don't be ashamed!"

For Wang Xiao's confident answer, Riley sneered, "It's up to you?" Did you know that many NBA head coaches never win an O'Brien Trophy in their lifetime, and how can you, an Asian, say such a thing? ”

Wang Xiao's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

This old man is a little angry when he speaks? What's the situation?

Wang Xiao is not a good-tempered person, and Riley's words will make him angry even if he is a mild-tempered person.

What is it called, "What qualifies you as an Asian to say such things?" ”

What happened to Asians? Eat your rice?

Just as Wang Xiao was about to go back, Riley laughed again, "But it's good that young people are confident, I appreciate it." ”

As he spoke, he took out a contract from the drawer and handed it to Wang Xiao, "Actually, when I saw your resume, I had already decided to keep you, this is a contract, you can sign this contract, you can work for the Heat." ”

Wang Xiao took the contract, and after a cursory glance, his eyes suddenly became cold.

"What do you mean, Pat Riley?"

"It's not interesting." Riley smiled and said: "The team has been short of a toilet cleaning staff recently, I have read your resume and think that you are very suitable for this job, with your ability, you will definitely be able to do it." ”
