0755 New lineup

As soon as his ideas were broadened, Su Yang thought of many operational options and directly found Xinji to arrange them.

"Our current situation is that we can only give basic salary. The players who are optimistic about the free market have been in contact, but most of them have been rejected, so I decided to change my mind and let Brogden serve as a substitute point guard in the new season, mainly looking for shooting guard.

Given the previous lessons, we don’t need to contact Stephenson and other players and look for them directly from the undraft.

The first target is Duncan Robinson.

An older rookie in 1994 once played at Wilms College in the NCAA third-tier league. Later, he transferred to Michigan University and played for three seasons. Although he averaged only 9.3 points per game, his three-point shooting percentage was excellent and he could also provide some help on the defensive end. It is completely feasible to play as a substitute for the swinger. He should not have signed a contract yet. Contact him as soon as possible and open the contract quotation first, promising that I would give at least 15 performance opportunities to avoid teams like the Heat. After all, it is a basic salary.

The second goal is Kendrick Nunn.

The older rookie in 1995 also played in college games for five years due to transfer, and averaged 25.9 points per game. However, given that he was at Oakland University, he did not have much reference value, and he was more interested in his physical fitness and defensive aggressiveness. His positioning is similar to that of Gary Payton, Jr., and I found out that he was in contact with the Warriors, so we should move quickly.

The third goal is Wood.

He was not valued in the Hornets last season. Coach Clifford emphasized defense, which made it difficult for him to play. If he is willing to accept the basic salary and return to the Kings, we also welcome him. If he doesn't want to, then forget it, after all, time cannot be guaranteed."

The three targets were revealed, all of them were shrimps.

In the free market a few years ago, the king pursued a goal of Durant or Aldridge, and the royal power has no eternity.

"Do it right away!"

Xinji started to record the names of the three targets, and instead called the assistant to contact the agent of the three targets.

Su Yang made a brief plan. If all three of them can be done, the Kings' 15-man roster will be officially filled, and some undrafts and two-way contracts will be signed to complete the summer league and preseason overseason. The new season will be aimed at the buyout market and operate according to Cousins' recovery.

Even if I haven't done it, I won't spend any more time on it.

This time, we took advantage of the opening of the free market and focused on finding a second substitute, not an important dependency.

A short time passed in a blink of an eye.

Hinki reported with a smile: "Duncan Robinson and Kendrick Nunn have been settled. They flew to Sacramento tomorrow to sign. Robinson specifically rejected the Heat's summer league invitation. Nunn even refused the Warriors' partial guarantee contract offer. They both want to prove themselves in the Kings, or under your hands. There are too many cases that make them feel excited..."

Su Yang nodded confidently.

The basic salary players who joined the Kings last season, Jeff Green, Ross, Payton Jr., etc., have been revealed by Shames to get a middle-class contract or above. Nans Jr. is even preparing to sign a contract of tens of millions of dollars with the Nuggets, which is at its peak.

"However, Wood is unwilling to come back. He is contacting the Bucks because after Budenholzer served as the Bucks' head coach, he contacted him personally and was particularly optimistic about his offensive role. He is expected to offer at least a middle-class offer..."

"That wishes him to create new glory..."

Su Yang shrugged slightly, it is understandable that people are walking towards a high place, "There is still one quota left, so let's have a temporary vacancy."

Make up your mind and fly back to Sa City.

The preparations for the Kings Summer League were launched simultaneously. Su Yang found Mike Brown to discuss and decided to arrange the position of interim head coach to David West, and instead let Dy Brown coach in the Development League, which was equivalent to a rotation and striving for comprehensive improvement.

Previously, when the Spurs were reversed in the playoffs, West proposed to make the players clear division of labor, and the Kings benefited a lot. That was really a promotion after West served as the head coach of the Development League team Thunderhorn Sheep. Without the experience of being a head coach, it would be difficult to broaden his thinking.

At noon the next day, Duncan Robinson and Nunn arrived, and Su Yang attended the signing ceremony specifically and welcomed the two to join.

A press conference was held.

Tnt asked with the team Maggio why he signed Robinson. Su Yang replied: "He has accurate three-point shooting ability. I am optimistic that he broke the rookie three-point shooting record and surpassed Stephen Curry in the same period in three-point shooting..."

After the words came to an end, the atmosphere suddenly became hot.

Duncan Robinson himself stared at Su Yang.

Just kidding?

Even though it was only three points ahead of Curry at the same time.

Su Yang responded with a firm look. Robinson was the fastest guy in NBA history to hit 500 three-pointers. Among them, he hit 270 three-pointers in the second season, with a shooting percentage of up to 44%. It can be said that three-pointers are better than Curry at the same time.

ESPN team reporter Lindsey then asked why he signed with Nun. Su Yang replied: "We need to have some players in the backcourt who can attack wildly. Nun is such a guy. He can bring us a lot of vitality."

There aren't many amazing reviews for Nunn.

The reporters were too lazy to ask more questions.

However, as soon as the press conference ended, Curry excitedly asked Robinson to compete for three-pointers, deliberately pretending to be angry and said, "I want to see how powerful the guy who is better than me in the coach is..." When he started shooting, he obviously had a water-releasing move.

Su Yang speculated that Curry wanted to help Robinson create more confidence, after all, he was out of the draft and was careful.

In the end, Curry lost as he wished and was convinced. Antetokounmpo and others started to clamor and said they wanted to cut Curry.

Taking advantage of the cheerful atmosphere, the roster was initially confirmed. Su Yang invited the entire team, including the players who represented the Kings to attend Xia Lian, to have a dinner together at his own manor. The celebration ended until 8 o'clock in the evening. The video was posted on social media and received tens of thousands of likes.

"NBA boss has never been able to get along with the players like Su Yang. The relationship between them is very good, and the players have long been extremely new and supportive. When implementing Su Yang's decision, there is naturally no hesitation or rejection..."

"The Kings' lineup has become significantly worse than the previous seasons, but their core lineup has not changed. Su Yang decided to continue coaching. He may not win 70 games in the new season, but they will still be strong contenders for the championship..."

"Compared with other bosses, Su Yang is not only very proficient in basketball, but also willing to devote himself to it. Even a press conference for a undraft will be attended in person, and he has also flew to all parts of the United States to recruit free agents many times. It is normal to have such a result..."

Amid all kinds of praise, the free market opened on July 1st.

Woj and Shames began to expose crazy news.

The Cavaliers decided to play for another year, but it has not yet been determined whether to renew Butler's contract in advance. Perhaps because the four giants lineups need to pay extremely high luxury taxes. Regardless of whether they can win the championship in the new season, early contract renewal will lead to serious losses.

Like the Raptors, the Celtics have no changes. It can be predicted that the regular season record will be very good, but the playoffs lack superstars to control key scenes. The Wizards and 76ers are also in the same situation. The core players perform poorly in the tough battles in the playoffs.

In the West, Paul decided to join the Spurs and join forces with Leonard and Ade to form a new three-tier giant. Rumors will let Parker go.

Durant decided to continue to sign 11 contracts with the Warriors, and the main lineup has not changed. I look forward to Curry Jr.'s further improvement.

The Thunder are being rumored to be sent to the Rockets, allowing Westbrook and Harden to reunite in Houston to form a double MVP.

The Trail Blazers and the Jazz didn't make any big moves, and the two teams were neither up nor down, while Lillard and Mitchell both had lower limits and lower upper limits.

The Lakers have no choice in the free market. They hold a handful of money in their hands and can't bear to leave this or that.

On the Kings' side, they first signed three rookies, then Zhou Qi and Cousins, and finally announced the 14-man roster.

Center position: Cousins, McGee, Zhou Qi.

Big/small forward positions: Antetokounmpo, Antetokounmpo, Sabonis, Covington, Tatum, Dorian Smith.

Score/Point Guard: Mikal Bridges, Duncan Robinson, Bruce Brown, Curry, Nunn.

Su Yang then posted on major social platforms such as MT and Twitter, and bluntly stated that he began to win five consecutive championships.
