This is the Last Time You Disrespect Me

Loren Woods's trial followed immediately.

The scene quickly became very awkward. Loren Woods, with his thin body and clumsy footwork, failed to successfully back down assistant coach Dean Cooper three times. On the fourth attempt, Dean Cooper deliberately gave way and stepped back to provide space, but Loren Woods, turning and stepping with the ball in his right hand, managed to fling the ball away. He couldn't even execute the most basic center's scoring move properly, performing a phantom hook shot.

Loren Woods's agent was too embarrassed to ask for another try, mainly because similar scenes had been played out many times in other teams before, and everyone was numb to it. On the contrary, assistant coach Larry Smith was particularly excited, shouting not to be nervous and to try again.

Perhaps he was worried about being labeled as poor guidance, especially after Su Yang's excellent coaching effect on Radmanovic.

Head coach Tom and manager Dawson didn't object, and owner Alexander was noncommittal; the three were somewhat speechless.

Su Yang almost laughed out loud, thinking that it couldn't be helped with Larry Smith, as Loren Woods was indeed very poor. Previously, he was expected to be in the middle of the first round, with a chance to break into the lottery, but the market plummeted after the NCAA finals, falling too fast for the Rockets to adjust their trial plan in time, but Larry Smith himself insisted on showing off, and no one else could be blamed.

In the blink of an eye, the second back test was over.

Loren Woods's performance was still very poor, and head coach Tom comforted and encouraged him, saying it would be fine once he put on muscle.

Since it's going to wait, it's useless now.

The agent awkwardly smiled and said yes.

The trial process continued, and everyone patiently gave respect, watched it, and then left the court hastily after a couple of polite words.

The work arrangement ended, and theoretically, it was time to get off work.

Su Yang went straight to the multimedia center, turned on the computer, opened Office2000, and began to write various plans during the summer league from the perspective of the summer league head coach, recalling various coaching and assistant coach videos he had seen in his previous life, including scout and other positions.

"Gather at eight in the morning, hold a coaching meeting to discuss work arrangements, accompany players for warm-up at nine-thirty, start the video analysis meeting at ten, then return to the court for targeted training, rest for two hours at noon, and head to the stadium at three in the afternoon..."

It looks complicated when written, but the core is watching videos - morning training - watching videos again in the afternoon - pre-match training - match - post-match video review, so the workload of video analysis is particularly large, not only does the video analyst have to work overtime, but the assistant coach does too.

After finishing the schedule, print it out and prepare.

Then rush to Tom's office, submit the plan, and then get off work at lightning speed, there's no need to work overtime, there will be plenty in the future.

Just as he walked out of the Compaq Center, his phone rang.

Upon answering, it was the agent of Radmanovic, saying that in order to thank for the previous guidance, there was a customer introduction, named Joseph Ford, who hoped to receive Su Yang's guidance before participating in more team trials, to achieve an excellent performance, and if the effect is still very good, there will be subsequent introductions of players like Myl Knight and Bobby Simmons, and the coaching fee is negotiable.

I wanted to propose it in person before, considering that this is a private job, it might upset the Rockets management, so I postponed the call. Anyway, flying to other places will reimburse business class tickets, and I also frankly said that he could take a little introduction fee, a win-win cooperation.

Just as I was about to sleep, someone handed me a pillow.

Su Yang happily agreed, using the guidance of shooting to increase experience in communicating with players, to add weight to the temporary head coach of the summer league.

As for flying to other places, it's not considered for the time being, it's easy to have problems when you're unfamiliar with the place, and it's best to brush your face in front of Dawson and Tom every day after just joining, while quickly getting familiar with the training and scouting departments, and more importantly, those players who will participate in the summer league.

I have to spend some time communicating with the players who will participate in the summer league first, and strive to let Tom see the value of leading the team.

Then he drove his Mazda to the Katy Mills Shopping Mall, swiped his card to buy two beautiful bags, and then went to Asia City to give gifts to the two aunts who were working, had an early dinner to celebrate, and some acquaintances also came to share the joy.

In the evening, I rushed home to check the replies to the posts.

'Who to replace and who to lay off' has become the hottest post on the R forum, and it has also led to more replies to the 'Finals Prediction' post. Many netizens believe that the prediction is too casual, saying that just saying that, it's not as good as A Smith.

Su Yang immediately updated the post, detailing why the 76ers would win the first game, focusing on the Lakers playing too little against the 76ers, not familiar with Iverson's style of play, and the Lakers advancing 4-0 over the Spurs, resting for too long, the touch is relatively unfamiliar, while the 76ers advanced 4-3 over the Bucks, the touch is hot, and the momentum is strong, the team is full of confidence.

"As long as Phil Jackson comes to his senses and doesn't arrange for Kobe to defend Iverson, to avoid Kobe wasting too much energy on defense, the Lakers can easily beat the 76ers, because the 76ers only have Iverson scoring, there's no need to trade.

I didn't say Kobe's defense is not good enough, it's just that due to his height, his speed is at a disadvantage compared to Iverson, if he defends Iverson, it will lead to a lot of physical loss, which will affect his performance on the offensive end, Kobe just needs to focus on attacking.

The best person to defend Iverson is Ty Lue."

Never thought that the netizens at the beginning of the century have already become keyboard trolls, and various replies have been going on until late at night.

The next day, at eight in the morning, I arrived at the Compaq Center, brought small gifts to the personnel department, let Lisa take over, and brush some favorability.

Work arrangements came with it, all assistant coaches need to edit the videos of the players who will come to the team for trials next week, both high school and college, head coach Tom hopes to be more comprehensive, and Su Yang is specifically responsible for Gerald Wallace.

Hearing such arrangements, Su Yang is both happy and worried.

Happy is that Dawson accepted the suggestion and decided to try out Gerald Wallace, worried is that it's hard to find Gerald's related videos.

Mainly Gerald's draft prospects are relatively poor, and he has never been able to enter the first round forecast, the previous scouting department did not fully investigate, in addition, Gerald's University of Alabama, in 2001, did not make it to the March Madness, and CBS did not broadcast it.

As for the regular season of the University of Alabama, it is estimated that even the local TV station will not have a backup, even if there is a backup, others will probably not help to search hard, and in previous similar situations, it is generally a call to the coach of the player's university to ask for it.

After communication, the coach of the player's university, based on the psychology of helping the player, will mail the video tape.

At the beginning of the century, large-capacity videos were still difficult to send over the network, and even Netflix also used to mail DVDs all over the United States.

It's time to test the connections.
