Chapter 768 Team Recruitment
Sunshine, beach, bikini, these are the views that all men who go to the beach want to see. The last one is the itchy commotion in the later period.
Although domestic tourism has become popular now, and various beauties can be seen on the beach in Sanwan from time to time, the choice of swimsuits by beauties is still relatively conservative due to the domestic environment.
At present, the beauties on the beach in Marbury are much more relaxed, with all kinds of long legs. If the sun is good, you can even see people sunbathing.
I bought a bottle of iced juice and sat under a parasol. Sunglasses became a must-have choice that can be watched casually without embarrassment.
Compared with the beautiful scenery of sunbathing when the sun is good, the sunset in the evening reduces this probability, but the arrival of more children makes the noisy beach feel different.
"Can I sit here?" Just as his eyes were wandering around, a voice came into his ears.
Yang Ye looked sideways, and the first thing he saw was a pair of long legs, and then a waist that looked a little baby fat, and then a delicate face with oriental intellectual beauty.
But the other person is not Asian. Perhaps the long black hair and intellectual facial features give people the illusion that she is oriental, but in fact she is not.
"Oh, sorry, no one." Yang Dongxu reached out and took the towel from the other chair.
These are two beach chairs side by side. After finishing his business, Yang Dongxu couldn't wear casual clothes to relax on the beach, so he went back to change into big shorts and slippers and took a towel to sit on the beach for a while. He just threw the towel on the seat next to him.
After taking a look at such a beautiful woman, Yang Dongxu felt familiar as if he had seen her somewhere, but he couldn't remember it. So he turned his head to look at Jie Chengwu not far away.
Jie Chengwu, who was also wearing big shorts and slippers, was wearing a T-shirt on his upper body. He was sitting on the beach not far away and seemed to be enjoying the beautiful scenery. His tall body was well-proportioned and full of explosive muscles, which made many beach beauties look at him frequently.
It seemed that she noticed Yang Dongxu's gaze, but she shook her head gently to indicate that the beauty sitting next to him was just a coincidence, not a purposeful approach.
This made Yang Dongxu feel much more relieved, and Jie Chengwu entered his mode of looking at beauties again.
At this time, it seemed that turning his head to look at the beauty was actually a disguise. He kept turning his head to look at the beauty like a playboy, constantly observing the possible dangers around him.
For the hints of several bikini beauties, he didn't seem to find the target he wanted, so he didn't reply, which disappointed several bikini beauties.
After sitting for a while, the other party didn't mean to chat up, and it seemed that he was really just tired of playing and looking for a chair to rest. Yang Dongxu's defense gradually dropped, and he didn't say another word until the two separated.
Returning to his residence, he asked Sister Xi to help pack up his things. He was not just talking casually about going to Philadelphia to see the team tomorrow, but really going to discuss the team's recruitment this season with the team's management.
The 76ers played very well last season. In this era when power forwards are favored by everyone and major teams are still fighting under the basket, the awakened Derrick fulfilled his genius talent. The data performance of 20.2+13+5.1 made everyone see the role of a terrible power forward in the team.
It's a pity that Duncan, nicknamed Stone Buddha, shot irrationally last season. In the end, the 76ers lost in the finals. Iverson's answer started the first missed journey of the championship ring in his career.
But such a journey is obviously not what the team and the big boss Yang Dongxu want to see. Although the 76ers finally turned a profit after several years of losses due to the team's excellent performance last season.
But as an NBA team, the championship is the highest honor of a team. The superstar has a dazzling halo on his head. A superstar without a championship is an incomplete superstar. A team without a championship is garbage no matter how many times it has impacted the playoffs and played in the finals.
So this year the team must further strengthen and improve its strength again, so that unreasonable accidents like Duncan will not happen again, and then win a championship ring.
No one met him at the airport, and Yang Dongxu didn't like to welcome him with the whole team, and Americans don't have this custom. The best way for Americans to repay their bosses is to work hard and create monetary value for their bosses, rather than flattering them in a false and empty way. There are also people who flatter in the United States, but Yang Dongxu looks at the team's ability, not whether the flattery is comfortable.
Seeing their big boss again, the team members reacted differently. Derek, who was originally determined by Yang Dongxu to be afraid of the big boss, turned out to be the player closest to him, and then his most optimistic favorite player Iverson.
"You've performed well this season. If you stick to it for another two years, you can save enough money for your retirement." Yang Dongxu patted Derek on the shoulder.
Talking about retirement to the star player of your own team is undoubtedly not a good word, nor a good sign. But Yang Dongxu said so, and Derek didn't feel cursed or anything.
The reason why he played so hard and lived a self-disciplined life like an ascetic was to make money, and his boss was not stingy in this regard. After the team made money, his salary increased further, and he even received a lot of bonuses.
Talking about ideals and the future with a player like him is just a hooliganism. Talking about money is the most practical thing because Derek is 32 years old this year. Although he cannot be completely classified as a retired player in the NBA, it is basically the same.
After all, he is a power forward who relies on his body to make a living. Although under the treatment of team doctors in recent years, his injuries have not completely broken out yet, and his body is still strong.
But the high-intensity confrontation has made him feel a little tired, so while he is in good condition, he hastily worked hard to increase his salary, and when he can't fight anymore, he can get a good pension contract. This is what Derek has always wanted to do. things.
Talk to the 32-year-old about his ideals, the future, and how he can further improve his strength and usher in another peak of his career. Being able to persist in the current training is already Derek's biggest limit. After all, he is not Duncan, the guy who becomes more popular and more powerful as he gets older.
"I think so too. In the past two years, I supported you and made some investments. Some of them lost money, but I made more. In another two years, I can travel around and appreciate the beauty of beauties all over the world." Delhi Gram licked his lips.
Although he insists on exercising and occasionally indulges, for him who likes drinking and nightclubs, his current life is undoubtedly too bad, and it is simply not a life that humans can live.
But at this time, he was like a donkey with a carrot hanging in front of him. Although he was very tired from pulling, he still couldn't help but want to stretch his head to eat the carrot, moving forward bit by bit amid the temptation.
However, compared with the donkey who never gets the carrot, Derek can clearly feel that this tempting carrot is getting closer and closer to him, especially after the stocks of several companies he invested in have risen sharply.
Sometimes he thinks about drinking all the wines in the United States first, then visiting all the nightclubs, and then going to other countries to continue his debauched life.
From now on, I will throw darts on the map and wander around in that country. Thinking about this kind of life will make me feel happy. Then when he underwent inhuman training from the coach and inhuman torture from the team doctor, he regained his confidence and began to grit his teeth and persevere.
"Then work hard, but while you are working hard, there is one more thing to do, teach him how to play power forward." Yang Dongxu pointed to a big man who was being trained.
Lamar Odom, nicknamed Lama, is most talked about in his career because of his mysterious distractions and various out-of-state situations. However, it is this kind of out-of-state play that still makes him a good player even in a wealthy team like the Los Angeles Lakers. Being able to hold on to the position of second brother, if he can concentrate on being serious, he will definitely be a big killer.
Odom was the fourth overall pick in the 1999 draft. When it comes to NBA drafts that are full of talents, people will subconsciously think of the 1996 golden generation.
In fact, the inconspicuous 1999 draft also produced many top players, such as Brand, Francis, and Ginobili. These are all stars who can serve as the core of the team.
After Yang Dongxu had Iverson, one of the best open-ball stars in NBA history, at point guard, he directly asked the team to trade Odom, who was drafted by the Clippers in the fourth pick.
Apart from the shortcomings of being distracted and having a lack of self-discipline in his personal life, Odom is definitely a player who is very cost-effective even if he is signed from the Clippers at a high price.
He has the body of a power forward, and also has the all-round talent to play any position on the team. As long as he is well cultivated, he will definitely be a powerful weapon for the team to fight for the championship.
Of course, when Derek gradually enters the ranks of older players and his physical fitness decreases day by day, he will cultivate a penalty area goalpost while he can still carry the team forward.
In this way, even if Derek's physical fitness declines in the next few seasons, with Odom's complement, the 76ers' penalty area will still be a place that can be ranked among the top teams in the league.
"No problem." Derek glanced at Odom and nodded simply.
If the two are of the same age, then Odom is a big threat to him. This big man who was just signed this year has a talent that can be seen with the naked eye. This makes the team coach and manager, as well as Nowadays the big bosses like it very much.
But he is 32 years old this year, and Odom is a rookie who just signed with the team this year. He poses no threat to him at all. By the time Odom grows up, he will basically be retiring.
Therefore, this big man was trained to make up for his lack of physical fitness due to aging, ensure that the team's performance continues to improve, and even win a championship ring.
This also has many benefits for him, such as the honor brought by the championship ring, such as the bonus after winning the championship, and his salary can be further increased.
Another example is to follow the big boss's words, gain more of the big boss's favor, and then give him guidance on several companies to invest in. These are real benefits and a guarantee of a wonderful life after retirement.
"Go down and inform the other players that I'm treating you tonight so that you can have some indulgence before the new season starts. Before I came to the team, I was discussing with the boss of New Line Cinema about filming a $100 million blockbuster and we have already signed a contract. .
If this season performs as well as last season, maybe next year after the movie is released and becomes a hit, I can introduce you to some big Hollywood stars. "Yang Dongxu patted Derek's shoulder and raised his eyebrows at him.
“Really?” Derek’s eyes lit up instantly.
