The Godfather of Basketball

Lu Anji's visit broke Tang Tian's small vacation and made him realize that the new season has arrived.

The Finals and Cavaliers games are still vivid, but in the 20 days since then, the new season's draft conference has already been ushered in.

Joint trial training, private trials and inspections of each team, this time is also coming to an end.

A team hasn't even decided on the head coach. That's equal to a full 20 meters behind the opponent in the 100-meter game.

Darrell Morey is obviously the person who is most anxious.

Alexander has given him the order to renew Tang Tian more than once last season, but after the end of the season, he could not find the figure of Tang Tian, ​​and his new general manager was really unfavorable.

"嘚 嘚 ~"

He was annoying and the door was knocked.

"Who ?!" His tone was very bad.

"It's me, Keyes." A middle-aged voice came from outside.

Kay Jones, an old man from the Rockets, stepped up from the team's team doctor, once worked as Yao Ming's personal trainer, and is now the Rockets' deputy general manager.

"Come in." Morey's tone eased a little. Although he is the general manager, he hasn't been as good as Jones with the Rockets.

"What's the matter?" He asked, holding back his luck.

"Tang Tian is here," Jones followed.

"What! Tang Tian is back ?!" Morey suddenly got up from his seat when he heard it.

"Yes, he went back to the coach's office, I don't know if he came to get ..."

Before Jones said this, he saw Morey hurried out.

"Don, you finally came back!"

Tang Tian just came to the office and didn't sit down, Morey hurried in.

Seeing Morey, Tang Tian didn't seem too surprised. The new general manager of this team doesn't say that he is familiar with previous lives, even if he has already met in person last season.

"Well, I'm almost resting." Tang Tian said with a smile.

I heard Tang Tian's words, and Moredo's smart man knew what he meant.

"It's time to take a break. You were busy enough last season." Morey followed.

"Well, by the way, how is the team's rookie inspection? I just looked at the office and it seems that there is no information." Tang Tian followed.

"Here I am, I'll get it here." Morey heard Tang Tian's words, he was 100% sure of his choice, and turned back after speaking.

Tang Tian couldn't help but smile when he looked at Mo Lei's anxious look.

In fact, at the moment the season ended, he already had a decision in mind.

Because he started with an assistant coach last season, many decisions at the beginning of the season made him speechless. As a result, the team's lineup was inherently inadequate, and there was no good chip to trade in the middle of the season.

These things add up. If it wasn't for the injury of Uncle Huo, Xibodu's unintentional words just awakened the memory in his mind. This champion is the Spurs.

But even in the event of a lucky win, it is not enough.

Last season, the Spurs and the Suns were the only competitive teams, but there were only two of them. The other teams were obviously inferior in strength. Such a championship, even if the Spurs have been replaced by the Rockets, is in many posterity In his eyes, it is just "half-pick".

The weakest year to win the championship, these words are absolutely impossible to run away.

If he leaves the rocket with such words, Tang Tian is obviously unwilling.

If history hasn't changed, the Lakers will get Gasol this year, and the Celtics will have the Big Three, and the difficulty will soar directly from the "simple mode" to "hell mode" last season.

If you can defend the title in **** mode, it will really reflect the value.

I have difficulty, only excitement, and I'm sorry for the identity of this traversal.

This is also Tang Tian's favorite thing to do and challenge.

Soon, Morey came over with a dozen documents. Since he had just been in office as a general manager, he now looked like an assistant.

"Mr. Morey has worked hard." Tang Tian said, getting up and helping his hand.

"It's okay." Morey smiled, Tang Tian was able to return. He finally completed the task that the boss told him.

Morey said he took a document from the top of the document.

"This is an extension contract that I discussed with the management. You see, it's just a draft. If there is something wrong, you can change it."

Tangtian took the contract, and then signaled Morey to sit first.

The content of the contract is similar to the previous one. The biggest difference is that the annual salary and the age limit.

The annual salary has changed from 2 million to 4 million, the annual salary has doubled, and the term has also changed from 1 year to 4 years.

The annual salary of 4 million is an absolute high salary for a coach who has only coached for one year. You must know that in the past life, the Rockets signed Adelman and only 3 million. Even Van Gundy's then-known celebrity And it's only 5 million a year.

This treatment shows that the Rockets absolutely recognize Tang Tian's ability.

"The contract is okay, but I hope it can be changed here." Tang Tian pointed to the number of years and said there ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ The annual salary and the number of years are next to each other. "Is the salary too low? I'll talk to other people in management."

"No, no, I am referring to the number of years. If I can, I hope to sign another one-year contract. If you have a salary, it will be fine."

Tang Tian said this, Morey apparently froze.

The intensity of NBA head coach competition is much greater than the players. After all, there are more than 300 players in a league, but the head coach can only have 30.

And there is a big difference between players. The coach's contract is fully guaranteed. Even if he is cut, he can get all the salary in the contract.

On this basis, NBA coaches hope that the annual salary of the contract will be as long as possible. After all, Bao Qiqi encountered the team's poor record, and the coaches were the first to take classes.

But now it's better, Tang Tian actually asked to change from 4 years to 1 year, which is really unheard of.

Seeing Morey's surprised look, Tang Tian probably guessed what the other person was thinking.

If you are a normal person, you do n’t ask for it, but the problem is that he is a passer. He does n’t want to stay in a team all the time. This is just like work. It ’s boring to stay the same, so one year, two years limit He can accept it.

"I still look forward to a salary increase." Tang Tian said with a smile, this is a reasonable reason.

Morey nodded for a moment, believing that what Tang Tian said.

"I will try to explain to the management." Morey did not give a positive response. The one-year contract is too short, which is not stable for the team.

Tangtian nodded, after taking away Morey, then picked up the draft data looks.
