As Riley left the room, the election meeting was almost over, and Westhead became the "helmsman" of the coaching union.

The teaching assistants were overjoyed, if Lin Yu could really do what he said, then it wouldn't be long before they could raise their salaries, and their lives would be much better.

To say that their annual salary of more than 100,000 yuan is small, it is actually a lot, compared with most families in the United States, it is already a high income.

However, compared to the score of income, the coach usually deals with the players the most, and looking at many players with an annual salary of millions or even tens of millions, of course they are unbalanced.

Especially with the new collective bargaining agreement, the lowest paid players are paid twice as much, which is even more unacceptable to them.

In their view, they are mental workers, just like lawyers and psychologists, who should be paid well.

But the old coaches in the conference room don't care, anyway, their salaries are quite high, at least more than $2 million, even if the league really introduces a base salary for coaches, it will not do them any good.

Because the Wizards still have a game tomorrow, Lin Yu can't stay in New York for too long, and he did two things before leaving.

One thing is to have a good chat with Westhead.

"Are you really going to expel Riley? Wouldn't it be a little too heartless? "Westhead is an honest man, and he doesn't want to do things too much.

Lin Yu frowned and said, "Mr. Westhead, you really should change your temperament. ”

"There is an old Chinese saying, I think it is very appropriate to give it to you, it is called Ma is good and is ridden, and people are good and bullied."

"Being kind to the enemy will make you look cowardly a lot of the time, you let Riley go this time, and whoever will take you seriously next time will be able to ride on your head and pull thin, because they know that you will definitely not do anything to them."

Lin Yu's words are not rough, he and Westhead are gentlemen's friends, and they have nothing to do with interests, Lin Yu wants to help Westhead, but he just doesn't want to be honest.

In order to make the honest man in front of him ruthless, Lin Yu did not hesitate to move out of the old saying that people are good and are bullied.

If Lin Yu was just a nobody, then it didn't make sense for him to say this kind of ancient saying, but Lin Yu was not a nobody, he had a pivotal position, and what he said was enough to make Westhead reflect.

"Are people good and deceived by others?"

"Isn't goodness worthy of God's favor?"

"Hey, Lin, if I had known you twenty years earlier, or heard that people are good and are bullied, then I am afraid I would not have fallen into this fate."

Westhead is extremely sad, he was once the founder of the Lakers dynasty, but he was reduced to being an assistant coach for Callesimo's kind of petty deflated three, if it weren't for Callesimo killing Lin Yu, Westhead would still be just an assistant coach now.

"It's not too late, there is an old Chinese saying that is called living to learn all the time, and it's definitely not too late for you to learn to be ruthless now."

Lin Yu smiled again.

Westhead nodded repeatedly, "Lin, I have gained a lot today, you are a wise person, a person with depth of thought, and a philosophical person. ”

"Your players are really lucky to have a coach like you."

Lin Yu scratched his head, he had already risen to this height in Westhead's mouth?

I chatted with him for a long time, mainly about the Warriors' roster construction.

The Warriors' current lineup is perfect, because Webber has good organizational skills, so even if Alstom's organizational skills are poor, it doesn't hurt.

However, Alston is easy to make mistakes on the field, after all, he used to play street ball, so he likes all kinds of bells and whistles, and mistakes are inevitable.

Lin Yu's advice is to look for opportunities and simply sell Alstom, his trade value is still good, he was reused in the Warriors' rookie season, and he also averaged 12 points and 6 assists per game.

After leaving Westhead, it was already evening, Lin Yu took a taxi and went directly to the NBA headquarters.

He's made an appointment with Stern to have dinner tonight.

"Lin, there won't be anything big going on, right? Why did you suddenly end up in New York? ”

Stern trembled a little, he was afraid that Lin Yu would cause some trouble again, just like he said, no matter where Lin Yu went, he would definitely be able to cause trouble.

Lin Yu hurriedly shook his head, "Can't you have dinner with Mr. Stern if it's okay?" ”

"You came all the way from Washington to New York to have a meal with me? Do you think I believe it? Stern said angrily, the more Lin Yu said this, the more he felt that something must have happened.

Lin Yu no longer hid it, and simply told the coaching union about it.

Stern looked at Lin Yu with a dull gaze, and said that it was okay? Good guy, it took a lot of effort to get a collective bargaining agreement with the players' union, and you guys pulled the coaches' union into it again?

"Lin, this matter is very difficult, or impossible."

"Coaches are different from players, you can't play without players in the game, but without a coach, how to play or how to play, you know what I mean?" Stern said in a deep voice.

Lin Yu nodded, "I understand, you mean that the coach can't strike, right?" ”

"I don't have as many demands as you think, the salaries of those managers don't need to be moved, just the salary of the assistant coaches is raised."

"Raising it to 250,000 is not much, and it is not as high as the base salary of the players."

Stern's originally tense look eased up, it doesn't sound like a big deal, the NBA generally has three to four assistant coaches per team, some teams may have more, but it won't exceed five.

In addition, these teaching assistants do not all have very low salaries, and some old teaching assistants can even earn $500,000.

In this way, if the basic salary of the coach is established, a team will spend an extra two or three hundred thousand dollars at most, which is indeed insignificant.

"Lin, I don't know why you're crazy all of a sudden, and you're concerned about the salaries of those teaching assistants." Stern asked curiously.

"It's very simple, I was also a teaching assistant at the time, and I know how hard life can be for teaching assistants."

"How's that, Mr. Stern, is this not feasible?" Lin Yu asked.

Stern nodded, "It's a trivial matter, but in the end, we have to convene a general meeting of the alliance to make a decision." ”

"Although each team will spend an extra $300,000 at most, many team owners are slamming the door to death, and you should know very well that it will not be easy to get them to pay the $300,000 willingly."

"In addition, now that the season is underway, it is impossible to adjust the coach's salary at the last minute, so we can only wait for the offseason."

Lin Yu nodded, "Then let's let out the news first, saying that the coaching union is contacting the league official, and the official is also preparing to discuss with the coaching union in the offseason to set up a basic salary for coaches, so I have to give the assistant coaches a thought first." ”

Stern didn't refuse, this is not a big deal, he just needs to ask Xiao Hua to hold a press conference and say it.

"Are you sure you can get those bosses to nod? This kind of thing has to be agreed to by at least two-thirds of the bosses. ”

"By the way, the owners of some small teams eat hard rather than soft, and you had better be tough in the face of them."

Stern originally wanted to remind Lin Yu that he could be tougher in the face of those difficult bosses, but when he thought about Lin Yu's usual style of acting, what he said was equivalent to saying it in vain, Lin Yu had never been soft, he was either tough or on the road to toughness.

"Don't worry, I'm very good at this kind of thing, coercion and temptation, my specialty." Lin Yu said with a laugh.

"Okay, then I'll have a meeting with them in the offseason."

Stern was also happy, although he didn't understand why Lin Yu suddenly thought of sympathizing with the assistant coach, but this is not a bad thing for the NBA league, and the salary of the assistant coach is indeed a little less.

The salary is too small, and maybe some talents who could have become top coaches change careers, which is a loss for the NBA.

……

After Lin Yu returned to Washington, at 10 o'clock in the morning of the next day, the NBA official Xiao Hua hosted an official press conference, announcing that he would be in contact with the coaches' union to discuss the issue of setting a base salary for coaches.

As soon as this news came out, the teaching assistants almost regarded Lin Yu as a god!

If the basic salary of coaches is introduced, the salary of many assistant coaches can be directly doubled!

A man who can double his salary, what is he not a god?

Lin Yu's side is secretly saying that it is a pity that the coach can't improve his charm value, otherwise this wave of charm value alone will have to increase by dozens of points.

There are a total of 29 teams in the league, with an average of four assistant coaches per team, that is, 126 assistant coaches, even if one-third of them are grateful to Lin Yu, it is also developed!

This season was originally short, and Lin Yu was banned for twenty games, and until now he has not refreshed the blank aura even once.

……

On the third night of playing the Philadelphia 76ers, the Wizards were still at home, this time against the Los Angeles Lakers.

In the last game, Dazhi slapped Teylon Hill several times and then was banned for another game.

This ban is also meaningful, not a heavy penalty, maybe Stern also takes into account that Lin Yu is really unavailable at the moment.

Dazhi was unable to play in this game, but Bowen made a comeback, and after being banned last season, he finally came back this season.

In this way, the starting lineup that Lin Yu can come up with is Big Mom, Bowen, Maddy, Kobe, and Nash.

Pure Death Five small lineup.

On the afternoon of the game day, as soon as Lin Yu arrived at the training ground, he saw the ball father holding a child who looked to have just been born for a long time.

After seeing Lin Yu, Father Qiu hurriedly ran over with the child in his arms.

"Boss, this is my second son Liangelo, who has only been born for two months, how cute you see."

"Can you help him choose a Chinese name?"

Daddy's abacus jingled, in his opinion, the eldest son recognized Lin Yu as his godfather, and the second son definitely had a chance, after all, the two sons of the Curry family recognized it.

He simply hugged Erqiu over, what if Lin Yu saw that Erqiu looked cute, and then accepted it too?

Lin Yu looked at Erqiu fixedly, and it really had nothing to do with cuteness.

In addition, the ball father let the second ball give a Chinese name, which made Lin Yu unable to complain, why take a Chinese name? Is it convenient for this goods to be a thief in China in the future?

It was originally stolen by Liangelo Bauer, but now it is stolen by Zhang San and Li Si.

Without waiting for Lin Yu to refuse, Daddy Qiu continued to speak, "Boss, I asked the bus, the strongest man in China is named Xiang Yu." ”

"Look at my kid, he has muscles at such a young age, and he will definitely become the strongest man in NBA history in the future."

"I'm going to give him a surname, you can help him choose a name."

Lin Yu was dumbfounded, can you still take the surname indiscriminately? And the second ball is on a par with the overlord of Chu? That's too stumbling Chu overlord.

"Xiang Ji." Lin Yu threw a name angrily, turned around and left.

Daddy Qiu was overjoyed, he didn't notice Lin Yu's speechless expression at all, thinking that Lin Yu was in a hurry to leave, he hurriedly went to find the bus and Dazhi, and wanted to ask what the name meant.

"What's that? Are you sure you heard it right? ”

"Xiang Ji? Like what? Let me see, is your child really like that? ”

The bus looked confused, he suspected that the ball father had heard it wrong, and Dazhi on the side couldn't hold it back, and laughed until he leaned back and smiled.

"Big bus, you don't care what it looks like, just say that the name Lin Ge took has no depth."

"Huo Quai, Xin Quji, no matter what it looks like, this name is very cultural at first glance."

“GOOD!”

“GOOD NAME！”

Dazhi didn't speak much English, but he still gave his thumbs up and praised it.

Looking at Dazhi's attitude, Father Qiu was satisfied, and felt that his life was complete, his two sons, one was Lin Yu's godson, and the other was even more powerful, and the names were taken by Lin Yu.

In another twenty years, these two sons of their own family will not be able to dominate the whole alliance?

"Well, after you say that, it does have depth." The bus could only nod again and again, and followed Dazhi to praise the name of this item.

……

Lin Yu didn't take this matter to heart, he was thinking about how to beat the Lakers tonight.

After summoning the generals, Lin Yu thought for a moment and decided to come something different tonight.

If it is a normal positional battle, how can the Wizards beat the Lakers who have the twin towers of Ao Fat and Uncle Huo.

But if it's a run-and-run, then maybe there will be a chance.

"Guys, our current situation, everybody knows, there's no way to go toe-to-toe with the Lakers under the basket."

"In that case, let's make something different tonight."

"On the offensive end, I can play as fast as I can, don't think about grabbing rebounds after shooting, and just start to get back into position."

"With such a fast-paced offense, we can at least ensure that Shaq's physical energy is consumed, and if we can shoot while he is not in the frontcourt, we can also ensure our shooting percentage under the basket."

"Defensively, do everything you can to cut off Shaq's lanes, it doesn't matter if anyone else doesn't score, as long as you don't score Shaq."

Lin Yu quickly established tonight's style of play, and the Wizards also tried the seven-second offense of the Suns in the future, but it was not a pure seven-second offense at that time, because there was a big book in the team at that time, and he did not have the ability to participate in the offense, this time it was much more pure, and the aunt had the ability to score three points.

……

At about seven o'clock in the evening, a reporter entered the locker room for an interview, and they originally wanted to interview Kobe.

After all, the Lakers' Kobe Bryant's old club, and the relationship between Kobe and Ao Fat is not so harmonious.

As a result, they didn't find Kobe, but stopped him by Ball Daddy.

The Wizards are the most watched team in the league today, and there is no one in the team who has a full presence even if it is a little minion like the ball father.

Father Qiu excitedly shared with the reporters the news that Erqiu was given a name by Lin Yu, he thought that the reporters could make the news public and confirm the intimate relationship between Erqiu and Lin Yu.

The reporters were really interested, and they interviewed the ball dad for a while, and did not stop the interview until the game was about to start.

……

Lin Yu led the team into the court and looked towards the Lakers bench.

This look made his face puzzled, what about the Silver Fox Harris? The Lakers head coach turned out to be Kurt Rambis.

Lin Yu is still quite familiar with Rambis, or any Lakers fan will be familiar with Rambis.

Rambis's wife is a ruthless person, and she is best friends with Jenny Buss, the daughter of the Lakers Buss family, and later the Lakers had a series of dizzy decisions, and it was revealed that her best friend interfered in politics, which was the bad idea of Rambis's wife......

What do you think? This picture is not very familiar, and it is easy to think of the female president of South Korea.

As for Rambis himself, although he has eyes and looks shrewd and wise, he has no opinions, and he listens to his daughter-in-law no matter how big or small.

"Hello, Lin." Rambis took the initiative to say hello to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu also nodded in acknowledgment.

Lambis then looked at Old Joe again, and greeted with a smile: "Hey, Joe, you see an old friend, don't you say hello?" ”

Old Joe had a cold face, "Fuck you, who's your old friend." ”

“go f*ck yourself！ motherf*cker！ ”

Lin Yu was stupid, Lao Qiao has always had a good temper, and he greets everyone with a smile, looking very sleek and sophisticated.

What the hell is this right now? Burst into foul language when you come up? And it's not ordinary foul language, what kind of hatred does this have?

What Lin Yu didn't expect was that Rambis must have shown no signs of anger, and continued with a smile: "Still angry? Joe, you know that's not my fault. ”

"Get out!" Old Joe turned his face away, and he didn't want to continue to deal with Rambis.

The fire of gossip in Lin Yu's heart is burning, what is the situation? The two are indeed contemporaneous players, and they both play the power forward position, but they have never been teammates, and they have never heard of Lao Qiao fighting with people when he was a player, what happened between the two?

Relationship problems like Maverick 3J? Falling in love with a woman at the same time, and then Old Joe loses to Rambis?

Lin Yu thought that after the game started, he would ask Lao Qiao about it, this matter was too worth gossiping.

Here, Lao Qiao just finished scolding Rambis, and Kobe and Ao Fat on the edge of the court didn't know what was wrong, and began to scold each other in the air.

"You damn fat loser, Lao Tzu has a championship, what do you have?"

Kobe Bryant even brought the championship ring not long ago to the scene today, which shows how much he hates Ao Fat.

It's normal to think about it, at the age of eighteen or nineteen, he was bullied by Ao Fat in the team, how could he not hate Ao Fat.

"What do I have? I have the Lakers, you bum who was kicked out of the Lakers! ”

Ao Fat also laughed loudly, he felt that in the dispute with Kobe, he had the last laugh, after all, it was Kobe who was traded.

"You wait, Lao Tzu will return to the Lakers sooner or later, and then your only fate is to get out of Los Angeles!"

Kobe Bryant scolded angrily.

Ao Pang was suddenly happy, "It's up to you?" You deserve to let me out of Los Angeles too? Do you have that qualification? ”

"One is not enough for me, I'll take a few more brothers, I'll take the bus, take Nash, and go to the Lakers together, I see if you can get out!" After Kobe Bryant was anxious, he really dared to say anything.

Lin Yu was dumbfounded, good guy, you Kobe Bryant is quite good at assigning ha, and in the blink of an eye, he assigned his generals to the Lakers.

Ao Pang was stunned, and a premonition suddenly appeared in his heart that made him very irritable.

This crazy kid isn't really going to come to the Lakers with the bus and Nash, right? Then the Lakers may really dispose of themselves.

I am indeed strong, but no matter how strong I am, I can be stronger than this trio?
