Chapter 10 Draw a big pie, we all need a championship!
Early the next morning, Dawson came to the office with a red face.
He watched the entire game last night, and the Rockets' performance gave him a big surprise.
Originally, he thought that Han Ning would not be able to control the team after taking office, and then he could take advantage of the situation and find a way to persuade Alexander to change his head coach.
Unexpectedly, Han Ning not only got Francis and others to recognize him, but also inspired Dayao's strength.
Working in the same club, as Han Ning's direct boss, Dawson could tell who caused Dayao's current change with just a few snacks.
It is precisely because of this that Dawson doesn't have such a big objection to Han Ning in his heart.
After all, it is rare to see a young head coach who can lead his team to a victory over his opponent by more than 20 points just after taking charge.
The most important thing is that the number one pick he selected last night, Yao, completely crushed Stoudemire, the most outstanding rookie among this year's rookies. Doesn't this mean that as a general manager, his job in the draft is
Are you competent?!
When he thought of this, Dawson felt particularly happy.
“Ding-deng-deng!!!”
"Enter."
"Mr. Dawson, good morning." Han Ning walked into the office, closed the door gently, and greeted with a smile.
When Dawson saw that the person coming was Han Ning, the smile on his face did not diminish. He greeted Han Ning to sit down and said, "Han Ning, congratulations on leading the team to victory last night."
"I also want to congratulate Mr. Dawson for his reversal of reputation in the media." Han Ning said with a smile.
In this morning's newspapers, all the media were boasting about the Rockets. Not only were they boasting about Dayao's explosion, there were also many media who had criticized Dawson for picking a parallel No. 1 overall pick and praised his vision.
Han Ning naturally saw these newspapers.
When Dawson heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Coach Han Ning, why did you come to see me?!" Dawson asked softly.
Han Ning's expression suddenly became serious, and he pursed his lips and looked at Dawson.
Of course he came to Dawson today for something.
Judging from last night's game, Han Ning is actually very dissatisfied with the team's current configuration.
Except for Dayao and Francis who are still online, even the performance of old cat Mobley is not very satisfactory to him.
Looking at the other players, they have almost no sense of presence!
Especially on the bench, there is almost no one available!
Glenn Rice, a veteran who is about to retire, can play as a substitute for another year if he can survive.
Eddie Griffin has a withdrawn personality. He will be a companion to certain drugs in the future, and will eventually die young. He is a pure problem child.
Maurice Taylor, as a power forward, only averages 3.6 rebounds per game!
Among the remaining old players and rookies, there are not even many who can stay in the NBA in the next three years!
As for his team-building ability, it's not that Han Ning looks down on Dawson, it's that he is really not good at it!
With so many teammates for Dayao and Francis, even if the King of Heaven comes, he won’t be able to lead the team to win the championship!
If you want to win the championship, you must rebuild the entire Rockets team. Unfortunately, Han Ning is not the general manager. As the head coach, he does not have the authority to operate transfers.
So he came to Dawson today just to take advantage of the team's big victory last night to have a fight with Dawson. It would be best to get some good players over.
As for how to py, you have to grasp Dawson's needs.
As the veteran general manager of the Rockets, what Dawson hopes to see most is naturally that the Rockets can win the championship.
When the Rockets won the championship in the 1993/94 and 1994/95 seasons, Dawson was happier than anyone else.
As long as he knew this, Han Ning would know how to negotiate with him.
It's very simple. The first step is to draw a cake for him!
As long as the pie is big enough, I don’t believe he won’t take the bait!
"Mr. Dawson, have you ever thought about the Rockets' goal for this season?!" Han Ning asked in a deep voice.
When Dawson saw Han Ning's serious look, the smile on his face gradually faded. He blinked and said, "Han Ning, I know you have set a goal for the team, which is to win the championship this season.
But with all due respect, you may not be very clear about the concept of a championship. The NBA championship is not that easy to win. What the team requires of you this season is to make it to the playoffs."
Han Ning nodded slightly and then said: "Mr. Dawson, I think you may not know me well. I have only one goal, and that is the championship!"
"Mr. Dawson, don't you want to win a championship?!"
"Before, most media and fans believed that Dayao was a parallel import No. 1 pick. Last night, he proved why he was the No. 1 pick."
"Now, most media and fans think that I am a rookie coach. They think that I was able to win the game last night because I have Yao and Francis in my hands."
"Similarly, many media and fans believe that Mr. Dawson does not know how to select people and his transfer operations are poor."
"To be honest, Mr. Dawson, we are two grasshoppers on the same rope now. We both need results to prove ourselves. The championship is the best way and the most difficult way."
"However, I have the confidence to give it a try! If we win, we will both gain fame and fortune. If we lose, you can put all the blame on me. I just don't know if Mr. Dawson has the courage to do it with me.
Let me cooperate once and give it a try?!"
When Dawson heard Han Ning's words, he couldn't help but lower his head and fell silent.
He had to admit that Han Ning's words touched his heart.
His operations in the transfer market have always been criticized by everyone, and they think he is a very poor general manager. He has always been holding back his anger and wants to prove himself.
What Han Ning said really touched him, and his blood boiled in his heart.
But, can he really trust this young man in front of him?!
I thought about Dayao's changes during this period and the team's outstanding performance last night.
The most important thing is that Han Ning is the head coach appointed by Alexander. Even if he fails, the blame cannot be placed on him!
Dawson asked in a deep voice: "How do you want to cooperate?!"
When Han Ning heard this, a smile appeared on his face again. He knew that Dawson was already moved.
"It's very simple. I will try my best to design some tactics for some players who are not in the plan in the next few games to improve their data and increase their transaction value."
"After that, I will give you a list. I hope Mr. Dawson can bring all the players on this list to Houston to play."
When Dawson heard this, his face looked a little ugly.
According to Han Ning, it is obvious that he does not recognize most of the current Rockets players. This is basically saying that his previous transfer operations were not good.
But he also knows in his heart that with the current strength of the Rockets' players, it will be difficult to win the championship or even make the playoffs.
After a long silence, the coffee on the table was no longer steaming.
