Chapter 489: A New Challenge
Chang Wei didn't know exactly what the identity of the predecessor Jackson was talking about, but it was good for him to be able to go to the Bobcat, and there was no loss if he couldn't go. To be honest, Chang Wei is still very interested in going to the Bobcats, which means that he can freely paint on a blank piece of paper with nothing, without having to consider the thoughts of the veteran players, because there are no veteran players at all.
However, Chang Wei didn't have much hope for Jackson, and he didn't believe that this guy would be able to convince Bobcats management to join the coaching team. So he didn't tell Brown about it after he went back, in his opinion, he didn't have a word yet, and it was useless to tell Brown now, and it would make the two of them embarrassed for the rest of the time.
In fact, Brown didn't mean that Chang Wei had to stay in the Pistons, if there was a better place, he would release him. However, Brown still hopes that Chang Wei can stay and help him, because he has seen Chang Wei's ability, and any head coach who has such a capable assistant is like a tiger, and he doesn't really want Chang Wei to leave for the sake of the Pistons.
But what Chang Wei didn't expect was that Jackson appeared in front of him again three days later. Before Chang Wei could speak, he whispered: "I have discussed it with my seniors, and he said that he should be able to convince the team owner to agree to your suggestion." ”
Chang Wei became even more curious about his so-called seniors, and he asked, "Who are the seniors you are talking about?" Can he still influence the decisions of Bobcat management? I'm interested in who he is, he should be the future general manager of the team, right? ”
Jackson smiled noncommittally, and instead of answering Chang Wei's question, he asked, "Chang, how did you think about it?" I'm confident about being the manager, but it would be even better if you could help me, and I'm very clear about your quality, and the Bobcats have nothing to do with you to become a competitive team very quickly. ”
Chang Wei sighed secretly and said, "I want to talk to Coach Brown about this matter first, don't worry, just find a hotel to stay and wait for my news, I think I can give you an answer tomorrow night at the latest." ”
Jackson shrugged, he knew that Chang Wei was telling the truth, even if he was willing to go to Charlotte, the team might not be willing to let go, in addition to Brown, he had to go and talk to the general manager Dumas, more than a day is already very fast.
"What? You're going to work as head assistant coach on a new team that's just been formed? ”
In the manager's office, Brown shouted loudly regardless of his demeanor, and in his excitement knocked over a water glass on the table. There is no way, Chang Wei's news is too exciting, originally he planned to continue to let Chang Wei stay in Detroit to see if he can take over his class in the future, but he didn't expect that there would be a team that wanted him to change the court, but the foundation of the new team ......
Thinking of this, Brown said categorically: "Chang, I have heard of that team, but you have to understand that going to a team that is just starting out will encounter all kinds of difficulties, and the team has no foundation, you have to put in 200 percent of the effort, and it may not be able to meet your requirements." Staying in the piston is clearly a better choice. ”
Chang Wei scratched his head and said: "Coach, this is what my best buddy invited me to go, and I don't think it's challenging to go to the Pistons, and I think I can rebuild a team according to my own ideas." ”
Brown was silent, he didn't expect Chang Wei to give such a reason, but it seemed to make sense when he thought about it carefully. For an old man like him, it's a bit of a toss to change teams, but Chang Wei is still very young, and it is understandable that he feels that the Pistons are not challenging, and he has fulfilled his promise to help the team build a dynasty.
After a long while, Brown said slowly: "If you have made up your mind, then I won't stop you, and it's good for young people to go out and fight harder." But you have to convince the general manager yourself, and I won't help you......"
Chang Wei glanced at Brown gratefully, stood up and bowed, and said in a deep voice: "If the team needs my help with something, I am absolutely duty-bound, and no matter what, this is also where my dream set sail." But you're going to have to be more tired in the future, so if you're too busy, just divide the work among other teaching assistants, and there's no need to do it yourself. ”
After saying that, Chang Wei turned around and left the office, looking at his distant figure, Brown sighed deeply. Whether it was in the 76ers or in the Pistons, Chang Wei helped him a lot, and now that Chang Wei is leaving, he is still a little unaccustomed. But for Chang Wei, this was a leap forward in his career, and out of love for him, Brown still chose to let him go.
Dumas also felt very sorry, but he was not as impressed by Chang Wei's ability as Brown, and after a little retention, he borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, saying that if the Bobcats were willing to hire Chang Wei to join the coaching team, the Pistons would definitely release him. After coming out of the general manager's office, Chang Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and when the attitudes of both the Pistons and the Bobcats were relatively clear, it was certain that he would join the Bobcats as the chief assistant coach, which also meant that he would start a new journey.
When he walked out of the Auburn Hills Palace Arena, Chang Wei still looked back nostalgically for a long time. The Pistons were a very important stop for him, where he helped build a new dynasty for the team, and his reputation as Brown's chief assistant coach began to spread throughout the league, otherwise Bobcats management would not have immediately agreed to Jackson's proposal.
Chang Wei smiled, walked down the steps slowly, and casually stopped a taxi to Jackson's hotel, he had to tell his good friend about it as soon as possible. When he told Jackson about the Pistons' attitude, the latter was so excited that his face was flushed, he stretched out his arm and gave Chang Wei a big hug, and said excitedly: "Chang, with your help, I am more confident, let's build the Bobcats into a strong team together, if I can lead the team to win the championship in my coaching career, then I will be satisfied." ”
Chang Wei said angrily: "Don't think so well first, it's very troublesome to build a team from scratch, the league will give us an expansion draft, but other teams can't give us some potential players to choose, so you have to be mentally prepared for no achievements in the first season, even if you are bad, you have to do it hard."
