Chapter 1161 The bar owner who fried a skewer

Looking at the three-story building in front of him that was not at all conspicuous, Xiaofeng realized that it was the first time he came to work in Song Yunshi. In the past, he was responsible for paying for Song Yunshi to carry out his business. As for how the business was carried out and how it was carried out, Xiaofeng didn't know much about it.

When Xiaofeng arrived at the door, she was stopped by two big men. Seeing the security measures at the door and so many cameras around, Xiaofeng was very doubtful if she had come to the wrong place. No matter how she looked, it didn't look like a place with a sheep head sold paparazzi dog meat hanging from a detective agency.

After contacting each other on the walkie-talkie, the two big men made way. Xiaofeng felt very uncomfortable when she walked into the door, although this discomfort was just a psychological effect.

Led by a man who looks very ordinary and will be ignored when thrown into the crowd, Xiaofeng went up to the second floor. Through the introduction of this man, Xiaofeng realized that Song Yunshi was in the largest conference room on the second floor at this time.

"Boss, welcome to the paparazzi base camp. What do you think here is? Do you have any shortcomings?" Seeing Xiaofeng pushing the door open, Song Yunshi welcomed Xiaofeng proudly. Song Yunshi was still very satisfied with his achievements. Although his lack of understanding of this industry has caused Song Yunshi to take many detours, it is precisely because there is no itinerary industry in the South Korean industry that Song Yunshi completed part of his monopoly so quickly.

"Okay, I'm not here for a visit. Just like I promised, I won't ask what you do. All I want is the result. Things I won't ask about before will not be asked about in the future." Xiaofeng was a little unhappy with Song Yunshi's temptation. Not to mention that he didn't have the energy to ask, he had the energy in Xiaofeng's opinion, even if he was lazy for a few days, it would be better to put energy and time on it.

Song Yunshi showed a bitter smile on his face. Although he was testing Xiaofeng, his purpose was not to ask Xiaofeng not to ask what he was responsible for and seize his power to seize his achievements. The reason why Song Yunshi verbally tested was that he hoped that Xiaofeng could increase his strength to support his career, at least to help him get online with Li Guozhong. You must know that the biggest problem he has to face now is that his paparazzi will stay at the police station for a few days from time to time, which greatly affected his subordinates' enthusiasm and work efficiency. However, it was obvious that Xiaofeng did not understand Song Yunshi's idea. After the game, the Chinese reporter accompanied the team conducted an exclusive interview with Zhang Bin. After confirming that Yang Rui was a Chinese, everyone was a little excited. No matter what nationality he was, the one who could speak Mandarin was his own people.

Yang Rui proved his strength with a group of unknown players, and his photos appeared in many Chinese newspapers the next day.

There are more and more fans in China watching NBA. Yang Rui became a coach at the age of 23 and is definitely a god.

In the United States, Yang Rui does not have any reporter interviews. Unlike the 21st century, the Summer League does not pay much attention to it. At most, reporters pay attention to those potential rookies. The Knicks have no big names, and they are a group of candidates except Stephen Jackson.

The Knicks management dispelled their doubts. Even if they couldn't win in the end, Yang Rui deserves praise for this game.

In the second game, the Knicks' opponent was the Lakers.

After a season of training, Kobe has entered a stable rotation lineup. The coaching staff does not need him to participate in the summer league anymore. This time, the Lakers sent out all marginal people, leading the second round rookie, 183cm point guard De Juan Witt.

A group of inconsistent players faced the five powerful players selected by Yang Rui. The ending was nothing unexpected, and the Lakers were beaten up in the first half.

114 to 74, the Knicks won 40 points.

The team scored in double digits with six players, and the two blue-collar workers tried their best to show their defensive talents. The offense had nothing to do with them.

Yang Rui clearly told Bao Wen that he would practice three-pointers on the right bottom corner, not even the left side, and focus on his energy on the defensive end. Doing these things well will ensure that he can stay in the Knicks in the new season.

The task of Wallace is also simple. He doesn't have to worry about anything except picking up bargains at the basket on the offensive end. He controls rebounds, fights against people at low posts, and blocks with defense!

Both of them are very obsessed when they are mentioned, and they don’t know how to play if they don’t defend. Even if they lead the big score, they are fully focused on defense. In this way, the opponent will be in trouble. Now, putting these two players on the NBA will also have a high level in the defensive end.

Wallace played 31 minutes in the game, with 12 points, 22 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 7 blocks, including 10 of the frontcourt rebounds, and they were abnormal data.

Bowen scored 5 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, and played for 26 minutes. The opponent was swinging and wanted to cry.

Jackson and Atkins are still the strongest offensive, scoring 26 points and 24 points respectively.

After receiving the battle report, manager Ernie Grenfeld convened a meeting of management personnel and announced the good news. "The second big victory over the Lakers, it seems we have to prepare for the party to celebrate. The boss of the money will definitely be happy to do it. Gren, do you think Jerry can lead the team to win all the time now?"

"I think this kid is a monster now. A team of marginal people can play such a game. It's really..." Glenn Walsh got stuck and couldn't find a suitable vocabulary to describe it.

"I can't explain, right? Jeff, what do you think?" Ernie asked with a smile.

Van Gundy was so curious that he couldn't sit still and wanted to go to Long Beach to watch the game. But it didn't work. If he went there, he still didn't know what he would say in the news.

He said seriously: "I think Jerry is practicing the offensive tactics of the Knicks in the new season. Moore is like Ewing, responsible for empty cuts and mid-range shots after screening, Wallace is like Oakley, responsible for defense and rebounding, Atkins is like Houston, responsible for running and receiving and shooting. Jackson is suitable for random battles and can pass the ball. As for Bowen, he should have outstanding defense."

Scott Maguire asked: "Is this the team's start?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Van Gundy asked back.

Scott swallowed and smiled bitterly, "This is the list Jerry posted to me before. He only chose five people, these five..."

Hiss. Everyone took a breath in the conference room.

Several people looked at each other. If Yang Rui had not fought before he could beat these five people, how could he explain? He was born with a wise eye? If the fight was good, it was a tactical reason, he could only describe it as a "monster".

In the summer league, not many teams are willing to choose blue-collar workers. The criteria for each team to select people are good, so this kind of game is usually strong in offense and weak in defense. Yang Ruijian took a different approach and chose two blue-collar workers, but it played a big role.

"No matter what, I have no objection to this kid." Yang Rui, who was very bachelor in Glen. "Hey, don't look at me like this, but he is really too young, so I suspect that he is incompetent. Now I am the first to agree with him as an assistant coach."

Ernie smiled, "I hope he can bring more surprises."

In the third game, the Knicks defeated the Warriors 106-88.

Stephen Jackson showed his power, scoring 38 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists. When the players were all hot, the Warriors played a small man on the main defense. Jackson scored one by one and made any shots, and made 7 of 11 three-pointers.

He is not his strength in shooting three points, and he is unreasonable and accurate when he is fucked.

In the fourth game, the Knicks defeated the Suns 110-103.

The score difference is almost the same because Yang Rui changed his playing style, Bowen and Wallace were on the verge, and both sides fought for an offense. Many people would not get the chance to play in the preseason, and Yang Rui gave them time to perform.

Facts have proved that black players with low ball quotient have no future and have stars in disrupting battles. How can they let the marginal people who are not defensive go up and go? Apart from the five future strong men selected by Yang Rui, only Brad Jones performed well. His ball quotient is very high, his shooting is accurate, and his confrontation is too poor.

Facing the Suns with poor strength, the Knicks almost lost. Jackson was completely different from the field, making 6 of 21 shots, missing 7 three-pointers, and only scored 14 points in the free throw.

After the game, Jackson took the initiative to bow his head to Yang Rui, fearing that he would lose the opportunity to play preseason for the Knicks.

Yang Rui generously forgave him. "I can understand why you want to show off because the sun gave up on you, but next time, you must use a smarter way to make a comeback."

In the last game, the Knicks played against the 76ers.

Three rookies participated in the preseason, seven power forwards Tim Thomas in the first round, 21 swingman Anthony Parker, 14 point guard Eric Snow in the second round, plus last year's poor performance marginal center Mark Blanco, are very strong, and their goal is to be the Summer League champion.

The Knicks' performance was eye-catching. They relied on tight defense to firmly control the situation at the beginning.

The blue-collar workers have obvious roles. Bowen defends the main attack point on the outside, Parker has no touch. No matter how bad his offense is, he cannot be defeated in the starting position. He averages second in the team in the average playing time, second only to Ben Wallace.

Big Boss is stronger, grabbing rebounds and dominating the basket.

Jackson also performed well, playing the power forward in the second half to defend Thomas No. 7 pick.

Atkins and Moore guaranteed their attack firepower. With 3 minutes left in the game, the Knicks led by 20 points and the victory was decided.

Yang Rui asked Brad to sit beside him and talk to him alone. "Your shooting is excellent, averaging 15.3 points per game, a 44% three-point shooting percentage, and the data is eye-catching, but your defense and organization are too poor, and the confrontation is at a disadvantage. In order not to delay your job search, I will give you a sure letter now. You definitely don't have the chance to play preseason for the Knicks, which is a pity."

Brad was suddenly disappointed. "I get it."

"Don't give up, you're still young. I have a suggestion that suits you. If you don't mind leaving home, you can try it in the Chinese CBA League. I think you will become a star."

Yang Rui knew that CBA had no confrontation at this time, and his shooting was Superman.

"..." Brad bit his lip and said "Thank you" awkwardly.

At the age of 24, he heard a 23-year-old man say "You are still young", which is so awkward! Yang Rui returned to Manhattan and changed his goal to the Knicks.

The Knicks are a strong team in the playoffs. The reason why they are a good choice is because he knows that Jeff Van Gundy is very stable in the coach position and has worked until the 2001-02 season. And he is a stubborn guy and may not be willing to listen to his assistant's opinion.

The Knicks have the same obvious advantages, that is, their lineup depth. From 1995 to 1999, the Knicks have always had the ability to compete for the championship. There are many defensive players in the interior, and two powerful scoring points on the outside, except for the point guard's strength, they have everything.

Yang Rui is confident that he can make the Knicks better. As long as Van Gundy listens to some suggestions, don’t always pursue defense and win.

On June 20, Yang Rui came to the "Front Face of New York" - Madison Square Garden.

He did not immediately send his resume to the Knicks management, but instead worked in a nearby "return snack bar". This was a store opened by a Chinese boss. Seeing that he had a good image and was neat, he kept it and calculated his wages based on hourly wages.

Yang Rui has no money to eat. If he doesn't call Thomas for help, he will starve to death if he doesn't find a job. This is a killing two birds with one stone. He must always pay attention to the situation of the Knicks and find a good time to go for an interview.

After his trip to New Jersey, he figured it out that if he just took the certificate like this, he would definitely not have the chance to show his performance. His age and qualifications would become factors that would be sentenced to death.

He has to wait for other coaches to compete for the competition, and then make a comparison together. Everyone has certificates, so you can't even give him the opportunity to participate in the discussion, right?

Yang Rui had a good memory in his previous life. He had been working in NBA materials for many years and remembered most important things. He knew what the Knicks were facing this summer, and Van Gundy's life was not easy.

Last season, the Knicks led the Heat 3-1 in the second round. Charlie Ward, who was 188cm in the fifth match, was picked up by 211cm PJ Brown and fell off the court. The two teams immediately started to fight together, and the melee was very fierce. After the game, the Knicks, including Ewing, Starks, Larry Johnson and other main players were suspended, but the Hots team only had Brown suspended the game.

In the sixth game, Ewing and Alan Houston both missed, and in the seventh game, Starks and Larry Johnson were absent, causing the team's strength to drop significantly. The Knicks paid a heavy price for their championship and were reversed by the Heat 4-3.

This way of eliminating the Knicks boss and fans are very angry.

Rex Hughes, the old assistant coach of the Knicks, chose to retire, and another assistant coach Andy Greer expired. He responded to Pat Riley's call and turned to the Heat. With Bob Salmy who left in 1996, the only one left in the Knicks coaching staff was Van Gundy, the bare commander.

According to the original history, Thibodeau, who was cut by 76ers, will join and become the Knicks' number one assistant coach. Others Yang Rui don't know. He just wants to wait for Thibodeau to compete with him.

The 76ers' management's vision was speechless. Not only did they lay off Thibodeau, but the assistant coach Ron Adams, who was laid off, was also very famous. Later, he became a good helper for Popovich.

In addition to working as a waiter in a snack bar every day, Yang Rui also took time to go to the arena to chat with the security guard and guard to get first-hand information. He used the special snack mung bean cake to buy a fat guard named Kenning, begging him to call the snack bar when someone came to interview for the assistant teacher.

Hard work pays off. On the 27th, Yang Rui finally came to see Thibodeau, and there was another person who was recruiting publicly.

"Xiao Xiao, I'll go out and tell the boss something urgent." Yang Rui took off his work clothes and shouted in Chinese to the Chinese girl working together.

"When will you come back?"

"afternoon."

Yang Rui took the certificate and rode the bicycle delivering food at the door to the stadium. The snack bar was two streets away from the stadium, and he used the public bus without hesitation.

This opportunity must be seized, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. For this reason, Yang Rui also investigated the location of the stadium office. He was familiar with the situation and thought of the words when he met the staff.
