Chapter 44: Young Marshal VS Carlisle, Youthful Spirit!

Stevens was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped forward to catch the phone with both hands.

？？？？？

The two masters and apprentices on the opposite side stared at each other.

If it weren't for the boss's phone, he would never want to catch it.

This is not a mobile phone, this is a hot potato!

Jiang Chao's purpose of taking the phone to Stevens at this time was very simple.

Reject him!

Count it as an interview, how would you compete with a playoff head coach who is good at strategy and short on strategy?

It's the same as on the field.

If you become a Knicks head coach, sooner or later you're going to meet all kinds of coaches, and even crazy old men like Carlisle's Maverick predecessor, Nelson Sr.

Hayward is on the side:

"Come on, put a cruel word or something!"

It was Carlisle who spoke first:

"Brad Stevens?? I like your coaching style, you haven't been to the NBA yet, so I suggest you practice under me for a few years so that you can dominate the game. ”

Stevens was originally a very elegant coach with a lot of character, he wouldn't spray it, but he would know it, and after hearing it, he said:

"Then Coach K at Duke University has never coached in the NBA, and he has to be an assistant coach as well?"

This made Carlisle stunned.

"Being young is not a disadvantage, it's an advantage, I have already agreed to Boss Jiang Chao's invitation, please don't bother the boss anymore, unless you want to be a teaching assistant."

"You!! Are you too rampant? ”

"It's not madness, it's confidence." Stevens held his chin high, his eyes shining with confidence.

At this time, Jiang Chao couldn't listen to it anymore, and if he continued like this, he would start scolding, so he said directly next to him:

"Well, Mr. Carlisle, I've signed a contract with him, it's a certainty, and you two should make a bet."

"What bet?" Carlisle has been very uncomfortable lately, even if he is scolded by his boss, the younger generations also scold himself?

He is only 35 years old, and he is the best tactician in the NBA!

Who are you?

Jiang Chao thought for a while:

"That's it, after next season, the Mavericks and Knicks will compare their records, and next year's record will not be as good as ours, so you will obediently come over and be an assistant coach, OK?"

Stevens nodded, Carlisle is known as a winning general, with more than 50% wins every season, but he is not cowardly, and he has long been forced to be competitive.

Carlisle sneered in his heart, this is okay? Where does the confidence come from?

Mavericks perennial Western Conference playoffs, what kind of hip pull thing are you Knicks.... Worse team than me?

So he also said:

"Then if you lose, I want Stevens to resign and say sorry in front of the media."

The stakes are very heavy, and Hayward next to him trembled and watched the bigwigs compete with each other, is the NBA so tiger, resign at every turn or something, it's scary.

The Mavericks went 55-27 last season and lost second in the West, which Nima can promise?

If you want to have this record in the East, then you can't do the top 4 in the East??

It's scary!

Just when he wanted to stop the young marshal, he nodded directly:

"I agree!"

Stevens, who is only in his early 30s, is a young man with a loud voice.

"Okay, then it's going to be cold for our future assistant to blow the cold wind in Dallas for another year."

Jiang Chao hung up the phone.

In fact, he is also gambling, but he is young, and young is fearless.

The Mavericks were really good last season, but it seems that next season the Spurs, the Thunder, and the Nuggets have all rushed up, and the Mavericks' record will not be particularly good.

So the bet is really on where the two managers will go next year.

Either one is demoted to become a teaching assistant, or the other quits and goes home farming!

It's not a petty fight anymore!

"Brother Chao.... Really refuse Carlisle, don't you pay a lot of money to pull him? Harmony makes money! Hayward was stunned, this scene really had a young taste, and both sides were crazy.

"Do you really think that he and Cuban will have a small fight, the second coach in the West, it is impossible to pull him as an assistant coach, their position, reputation is more important than money."

Jiang Chao has already seen through everything, and Carlisle will really agree to the head coach's words, but the assistant coach, if it is really done, what do Mavericks fans think?

Absolutely sprayed him for profit, forgetting righteousness, and abandoning his beloved disciple Nuo Tianwang for money.

You say that it's okay to jump ship and become a head coach, it's really hard for the Knicks to refuse to poach, but surrendering yourself as an assistant coach will really disgust the fans.

The clever Hayward bystander Qing gave Jiang Chao a thumbs up next to him, the old capitalist!

The boss is worthy of being the boss, only Jiang Chao has nothing to lose in this bet, the first place in the arch fire, and in the end, he has gained the involution of the two head coaches after one season.

It's really a little fox, let the two elite coaches bet on their careers, and he is on fire.

Coach Stevens blushed, and after talking to the top manager, his heart was pounding now, and the bullish energy also came up:

"Boss, I want to sign a contract."

Don't say anything, say yes and you're done!

"I've seen your speech and I'll do my best to bring you the championship!! For the New York Knicks! ”

"Hmm."

Jiang Chao took out the contract, and Stevens didn't ask about the salary and years, this is the confidence that belongs to the young marshal alone.

He is not afraid of being laid off, because he will not fail!

In fact, the opinions of the family also account for the majority, his wife, his parents know best how much he loves basketball, if he has a dream, he will break it, and the bosses will come to you to find you, just chase your dream!

Lao Lu's contract is set at 9.35 million for 5 years, increasing year by year, and the follow-up team coach has a double option, that is, after the contract expires, the Knicks will give priority to matching the offers of other teams.

And Stevens can also coach the option to jump out of the contract, with a high degree of freedom.

There is also a lucrative commission mechanism.

Stevens is also the rhythm of going straight to becoming a millionaire.

"Your lovely daughter can be brought to kindergarten in New York."

Jiang Chao had a pain in his flesh, why is it increasing year by year, on the one hand, everyone does such a contract, and it seems that the annual income is a little more.

On the other hand, he doesn't have much money, and he has to pay for the regular season after that.

The remaining 120 million has to be sold after the start of ticket sales to slowly return to the cost of making money, he has to save a little, don't sell the apartment before the start of next season, it's not good.

He was very happy with Stevens, who was serious about signing the contract, and he and Carlisle were facing each other head-on, and he had an inner groove.

This spirit is in line with the Knicks culture he wants to build.

Rotten is contagious, and he can only stop rotten by uprooting it!

At 9 p.m., in the locker room at Hinkel Arena, the Butler University basketball team held an emergency meeting.

No one was absent.

Because everybody knows that something very special is happening today.

Coach Stevens was surrounded by students in the middle of the locker room, and Jiang Chao waited outside the door with his mobile phone.

Almost everyone present cried.

"I never imagined that one day I would have to say these words......"

Stevens choked up, "Next season, I'm no longer going to be the head coach of Butler University." ”

Stevens, who has only cried 3 times in his life, cried 3 times today.

And for Butler University, that day was the end of the world.

Hayward and other players hugged the young coach goodbye.

The sky is high and the birds fly.

Their young marshal is about to step on a higher stage, and they will be watching him on TV later.

But no one thought that Jiang Chao's recruitment this time would make the future of the Knicks soar.

*(Note: Coach Stevens actually said these things when he left college for the Celtics.) ）
