After agreeing to Brown, Chang Wei submitted his resignation to the 76ers as soon as possible, which surprised his colleagues. In their opinion, hugging the thigh of a championship team in Philadelphia is the best option, there is no shortage of opportunities and no shortage of accolades, so why start over with another team? Of course, Chang Wei didn't tell them where they were going.

The Pistons' environment and overall strength are actually not much worse than the 76ers, and aside from their fifth place in the East last season, their roster is still very good. The team's leading scorer, Stackhouse, averaged 21.4 points, 4.1 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game last season, as a 1995 scout, he was called Jordan's successor when he first entered the league, although in Chang Wei's view, this title is very watery for Stackhouse, but it does not prevent him from the fact that he is an excellent swing man.

The starting center of the future Pistons Five Tigers, defensive big man Ben Wallace, is also already in the team, Chang Wei has never denied the strength of this short center, since he is in the team, there is no need to spend too much energy to build a defensive system. On top of that, the team has good role players like Atkins and Joan Barry, and the roster is deep enough.

However, there are still some players in the team who Chang Wei has not heard of much, and it is clear that they will not achieve much in the future. It's true that the Pistons can guarantee a high pick in next year's draft, and they can certainly select a talented player who can be used as a cornerstone of the team, but it also means wasting the next season, which Chang Wei can't accept, even if he can't hit the championship for the time being next season, but he must go as far as possible.

Of course, it would be nice to have some future stars or great role players in advance, which would further shorten the time it takes for the Pistons to reach their peak. The Predators of the previous life were indeed a good fit for Detroit, a city of industry and automobiles, but lackluster in terms of ratings, after all, there were no neutral fans who wanted to see a bunch of strong men brutally bumping around the court, and Chang Wei hoped to help the Pistons win the championship while making them a different style.

As for Brown's thoughts...... Chang Wei believes that he will not refuse such a change, after all, as long as there is a big book, it means that the Pistons retain the iron-blooded defensive genes, which will be a more balanced team on offense and defense, rather than purely inclined to offense like the 76ers, and Brown, who is based on defense, should like this style of play.

After Chang Wei agreed to join, Brown quickly applied to the Pistons, and the team management was naturally indispensable, they had more or less heard of Chang Wei's name, which is Brown's right-hand man, and it is said that he is also a very important member of the 76ers championship team. So when Brown proposed to invite Chang Wei to join his coaching staff, the team quickly helped Chang Wei complete the entry procedures.

After confirming with the Pistons' staff, Chang Wei did not slack off and immediately bought the fastest ticket to Detroit. At this time, he was extremely glad that he had been living in the apartment rented by the team, and he didn't have too much luggage, and the large items were naturally packed and mailed, Chang Wei himself boarded the plane with a bag on his back, looking like a tourist, so he didn't encounter other onlookers, which is also a little "benefit" that he can enjoy as an assistant coach.

When he walked out of the airport, Chang Wei took a deep breath, and the air was filled with the familiar and unfamiliar smell of engine oil and rust, this is the Motor City, this is the Motor City! Looking at the big man in cargo pants shuttling back and forth on the street, Chang Wei smiled, the reason why the Pistons were popular with Detroit fans in the previous life is not unreasonable, their style perfectly fits the city, iron-blooded, rough, and a little dirty, which is completely the taste of Detroit, a motor city.

Perhaps it is because of this that the Pistons were able to snatch a championship from the Lakers F4 without neutral fans willing to watch them play, and for a long time became a feared presence in the league.

Walking out of the airport, Chang Wei casually hailed a taxi and directly told the driver that he was going to the Auburn Hills Palace Arena. The driver was a black uncle with a hideous face, but after hearing the Auburn Hills Palace Arena, his expression softened suddenly, and he began to talk to Chang Wei about how powerful the piston was, of course, there were a lot of swear words mixed with it. Chang Wei does not have a habit of language cleanliness, but thinks that this is the characteristic of Pistons fans, they may be rude, maybe not highly educated, but they love this team from the bottom of their hearts, so they can make this the league's famous devil's home field.

The taxi drove for a while before stopping at the entrance of the Auburn Hills Palace, and the driver refused to collect the fare, presumably because it was rare to see passengers who were willing to listen to their nagging. After Chang Wei pushed several times to no avail, he could only thank the driver repeatedly, and then disappeared at the door of the Auburn Hills Palace with his small bag on his back.

Under the guidance of the staff, Chang Wei came to Brown's office smoothly, and when he pushed the door in, Chang Wei suddenly thought that he had come to Brown's office in this way two years ago, but now it seemed that it was time to change to a new place.

Brown was sitting behind the desk enjoying the warm sunshine outside the window, and when he saw Chang Wei walking in, he smiled and said, "Chang, sit casually, there is mineral water and drinks in the refrigerator, and coffee is in the small cabinet next to it, you can drink whatever you want." ”

Chang Wei took out a bottle of sports drink from the refrigerator, unscrewed the cap and took a sip, and teased: "Coach, it seems that you are treated very well here, I didn't see a refrigerator in your office when I was in the 76ers before." ”

Brown smiled and said, "That's why I want to repay them with a better record!" By the way, are there any aspects of the squad that you think need to be improved on the current squad? If we want to go far in the playoffs. ”

The smile on Chang Wei's face disappeared, his fingertips tapped rhythmically on the table, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he asked seriously: "Coach, I think you need to ask yourself this question, what kind of team do you hope to build?" ”

"When we were with the 76ers, we were the toughest offensive team in the league, we had the best scorers, we had the most firepower in the league, but this time I wanted to go back to my old job, how about we build a top defensive team in the league? I want to prove that offensive teams can win championships, and defensive teams can too! ”
