Chapter 166: Find a Helper for the AI
As an old strong team, the treatment of the 76ers is still very good, and Brown has already said hello in advance, Chang Wei walked around the entire arena and went straight to the apartment that the team rented for him. Brown thought thoughtfully, the apartment was only two blocks from the arena, and it only took a dozen or twenty minutes to walk.
Chang Wei was very satisfied, especially when he saw a full bookcase and a well-equipped computer in his apartment. He secretly sighed: "Although American fans prefer the NCAA, we must admit that there is a gap in the treatment of employees!" Whether it's Villanova or Colorado, where is there such a good apartment for you? It's nice to give you a teacher's dormitory, and it's a simplified version of the ......."
Although Brown gave the task, the time was not particularly tight, and it was almost noon now, so Chang Wei said that it was better to go to eat first. However, he suddenly remembered that there was one more thing he hadn't done, that is, to call McKay, McKay sincerely kept him after Colorado won the championship, of course, the 76ers are much stronger than Colorado State, but Chang Wei thinks it is necessary to talk to McKay and leave him time to find a new physical coach, so that it will not affect Colorado State's preparation for the new season, which is also his last care for Colorado State.
After the call was made, Chang Wei clearly felt McKay's joy, and it was estimated that he thought he was finally willing to renew the contract. Unfortunately, sometimes bad guys still have to do it, although Chang Wei is a Chinese, his thinking at work has been Americanized, and he will not affect public affairs because of personal feelings.
Chang Wei coughed lightly and said solemnly: "Coach, it's a pity that I can't continue to help you in the new season, I have found a bigger stage, so ...... I'm sorry, I think you need to find a reliable strength and conditioning coach again, if you don't mind, I can recommend a few ......"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and Chang Wei almost thought that McKay had fainted after hearing the news. Just as he was about to put down the microphone, Mackay's voice came out again. "Since you say so, it must be to join an NBA team," McKay laughed nonchalantly, "Actually, I have long been mentally prepared, people like you, the NCAA can't be retained, and only by going to the NBA can you give full play to your talents." So when you don't make it clear after you win the title, I guess you have a better place to go. I would venture to ask, what is your new club? ”
Chang Wei frowned, and his tone became serious: "There is one thing I want to clarify, joining the NBA team is only a recent thing, I did consider joining the NBA at that time, so I didn't give you a clear answer, but no NBA team had approached me at that time, so you don't need to think too much." Also, I can tell you that I'm in Philadelphia right now, and it's pretty obvious which team I'm joining, isn't it? ”
Indeed, when McKay knew that Chang Wei had joined the NBA team, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, as if his treasure had been snatched away by someone else. But Chang Wei explained in time, and McKay chose to believe his statement after thinking about it for a while, and then his attention shifted to Chang Wei's new owner.
"Oh my God, you're in the 76ers! Why isn't this person me? I'm a big fan of Iverson! If you can, can you help me get a signed photo of him? No, no, no, there should be a few more, my son is also a fan of his! ”
Chang Wei stretched out his hand to cover his forehead, boss, your painting style has become very fast, why did you suddenly change from a sad Xianglin sister-in-law to a fanatical fan who wants Iverson's autograph? complained and complained, Chang Wei still stubbornly said: "This...... I'll take a look at it for you if I have a chance, it shouldn't be a big problem......"
In a series of thanks, Chang Wei hung up the phone speechlessly. After lunch and a nap, Chang Wei sat at his desk in good spirits, ready to start looking for a suitable target. After all, it is not yet time to invite the rookie for a tryout, and even if Chang Wei has a wealth of memories of his past life, he can't show Brown any evidence, so it's best to wait until the 76ers invite the rookie to try out to provide Brown with a big list, and by the way, bring a little private goods.
Opening the 76ers' player profile, Chang Wei began to browse slowly. The information given by Brown is obviously the most detailed version, in addition to the basic information and personal data of the players, it also includes the analysis of high-level data and the results of the latest physical fitness test, which surprised Chang Wei, sure enough, the NBA team still pays more attention to details, such detailed information undoubtedly saves Chang Wei a lot of time, and he does not need to use the system to investigate one by one.
The substitute must be upgraded, but in Chang Wei's view, it is imperative to make up for the loopholes in the main lineup first. With Iverson and Snow, the 76ers' starting backcourt has no problem, and Chang Wei can't ask for too much, Iverson averaged 28.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game last season, while Snow can contribute 7.9 points, 3.2 rebounds and 7.6 assists. If you don't think the attack is strong, there is still Larry Hughes sitting on the bench, which is a player who averaged 20+ per game in his prime.
But the 76ers' forward line is not so good, and the team's starter at this position is George Lynch, who averaged just 9.6 points per game last season, and 7.8 rebounds was his only strength. Bench forward Kukoc is still young, averaging 12.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game after shooting midway through last season, but he was born in 1968 and is 32 years old, which is undoubtedly a hidden danger. As for the inside, Teylon Hill's level is simply tearful, and Ratliff, who averages 119 points and 7.6 rebounds per game, is a guy who can continue to improve, but his height is still on the short side, and it is difficult to be the team's interior barrier.
In fact, for Chang Wei, the inside line is a good supplement, just copy the transaction they got Mutombo in their previous life, Uncle Mu is still in the prime of his career, although he and Ratliff, two players who are not good at attacking, form an inside partner, but Ratliff is not impossible to change! Wouldn't it be nice to trade a power forward who can shoot like Rashad Lewis?
On the contrary, it takes a lot of effort on the wing, and it stands to reason that Chang Wei should offer to get Battier through a trade, such an all-round small forward for the 76ers is a complete all-round upgrade. But now that the Kings have Battier as the cornerstone of their team, it's hard for the 76ers to give them a bargaining chip. Suddenly, a name flashed in Chang Wei's mind, if he could bring this person back to the top, the 76ers would definitely earn it!
