The press conference was completed soon, and Jenny Bass, as a tour guide, took Curry to visit the trophy showroom.

By eleven o'clock, Curry and his father, Old Dell, walked into the general manager's office together. Su Yang had been waiting for a long time.

After a few polite words, Kupchek said directly: "Let's talk about Stephen's topics related to playing in the next period of time. Judging from the medical report, Stephen has recovered from his previous ankle injury. I wonder what you think?"

Old Dell turned his head and said, and Curry easily said: "I'm 100% ready to go to the battle, no problem!"

Kupchek nodded, and Su Yang took over the conversation: "We plan to let you continue to rest, when to be in the best condition, and when to come back to participate in the game, we regard you as a core player in the long-term team building, and hope to give you the best protection..."

Before the deal was reached, Su Yang, Bass and Kupchek had a discussion to prepare for Curry to recuperate until the end of the season, so he used Walton and the draft pick to trade Sessions with the Cavaliers to ensure that there was someone in the point guard who could play.

Of course, if Curry can play normally, even in the finals, standing at the bottom corner as a fixed-point shooter will help.

Anyway, the team is not in a hurry.

Old Dell closed his hands together to express his gratitude, Curry showed a happy expression on his face, and Su Yang continued: "There are 21 games left this season, about six weeks. I hope you can change the way of jumping with your ankle-based force, and enhance the core muscle training of your hips and waist to help you get better away from ankle injuries. We will specially arrange a professional trainer for you."

Curry looked thoughtful when he heard this. After a moment, he glanced at his father and said with a little emotion: "We have tried many ways before, including repair surgery and improving sneakers. This is the first time I heard your advice, but I feel it makes sense. When I took off the shooting, I am accustomed to using my ankles and soles to drive my knees and thighs, and my core muscle training is indeed less... "

Curry must have diligent training and attaches importance to strength training. During the joint trial, 84 kg bench press 10 times was the best proof, but it is probably not systematic training, and it may be a bit of a deviation of "fitness without legs training".

That is also a very common phenomenon. For example, many people, including Yao Ming, emphasized that Oden needed to strengthen leg muscle training, otherwise his weak legs would not be able to support his weight for a long time, but Oden would rather drink alcohol than practice hard.

Old Dell shook his head and looked heartbroken: "We have little thoughts on this aspect and have hardly thought about that possibility..."

Seeing the annoyed look of the father and son, Su Yang responded with a smile: "It's okay, we still have a lot of time to recover."

An NBA player who has been playing for many years and is equipped with an NBA-level trainer, said he never considered ankle injury because of weak force and weak core muscles. That sounds nonsense, but looking at NBA history, there are many things that are not professional.

Putting aside the possible backward conditions in ancient times, Su Yang simply thought of the 16-year No. 1 pick Simmons, as a player in the position of point guard, playoff free throw shooting percentage is the last in NBA history, lower than O'Neal and Chamberlain. The key is that Simmons' shooting is so poor, and the big reason is that he must use non-usual left-handed shooting.

That sounds incredible, and Simmons's father's theory is that the left-handed shot is not easily blocked by defense.

That theory sounds like no problem. After all, many players are used to blocking their right hand, but the problem is that Simmons is not a left-handed person, and that kind of operation is 80% threatened at his own expense. Even if he is strong and paranoid, he doesn't play that kind of slutty operation.

The key is that Simmons's father was once a professional player, and then Simmons' shooting trainer was his biological brother.

As a bystander, it is hard to imagine and believe that Simmons, as the top scorer, actually received such thoughts and training.

It would be a fool and nonsense to practice shooting in an NBA-level event!

But that's the truth, and Simmons never considered whether there was any problem with training like that, and the 76ers did not intervene.

A group of people sat down to watch Simmons' shooting worse and worse, and then developed an "undefensive empty basket. I was over two meters tall and didn't dunk, just passing it to my teammates 1.9 meters to one-two," which was even more ruthless than Westbrook forcibly seeking assists!

"Coach, I promise you that I will follow the trainer's arrangements and achieve a better competitive state as soon as possible..." Curry made a serious commitment, "I strive to catch up with the playoffs and core strength training, and I also guarantee other events."

Su Yang raised his hand and patted Curry on the shoulder to show encouragement. He immediately called Cork Lairs, who was also a trainer who was specially dug up from the Timberwolves at a high price. He was mainly responsible for doing private training for Curry, saying that he would start working at the training base tomorrow.

Cork Lairs' professional training programs are one of the reasons why Curry's ankle becomes healthy and stable. Su Yang took advantage of the All-Star weekend to complete the poaching, which is considered to be a luxury supporting package for Curry. After all, he spent all his energy, material resources and financial resources.

After chatting for a while, Su Yang got up and left the general manager's office, went to his office, preparing to play against the Jazz.

As soon as he entered the door, Mike Brown smiled excitedly and said, "Su, as you guessed, the Portland Trail Blazers officially announced the firing of Coach Nate McMillan. I have called him just now, and while comforting, convey your intention of recruiting.

He said he would think about it seriously, but his mind is quite messy at the moment and he needs to take a break before giving you a final answer."

Su Yang nodded, and had a seat in assistant coach before. He originally planned to stay empty, but when he met the Trail Blazers, he thought that McMillan might be fired, so he temporarily wanted Mike Brown to pay attention to the relevant news. It was really the same as the idea.

The young people from the Trail Blazers were not convinced by McMillan, and the boss had no choice. In that case, the head coach could only leave.

"Let's have a meeting first..."

As usual, Su Yang pulled the assistant coach and scouts to discuss how to play against the Jazz, mainly because he had lost to the Jazz twice before.

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the Lakers held another media conference for Biderlings, Jordan Hill and Sessions.

Su Yang accompanied the audience and welcomed the three players, promising to design the most appropriate tactics for the three and take them to enjoy the feeling of winning, so that Bidlins forgets to be in the Warriors and Sessions forgets to be in the Cavaliers, and those who always lose the powerlessness.

A group of reporters joked that he finally stopped wholesale MVP.

After the afternoon training, Su Yang called McMillan as planned and officially issued an invitation to teach assistant position. Although he was not the chief assistant, he also provided McMillan with a job and also showed his recognition of McMillan to the league.

It's equivalent to thanking for the promotion.

That kind of recognition is more important than jobs, because it indirectly shows that McMillan has a good position, otherwise why would he find a job so quickly?

It’s like Doug Rivers received a five-year contract for 76ers the next day after being fired by the Clippers, which shows that Rivers is very capable!!!

Of course, Su Yang does need some help in defense, and it is by no means a purely grateful nature.

McMillan can leave at any time and will never stop him from working as a head coach or a chief assistant coach in other teams.

Perhaps moved by that strong sincerity, McMillan agreed to the invitation on the spot, and Su Yang then reported to the management.

After a while, the Lakers officially updated the Twitter account and said: "Welcome Nate? McMillan to the Lakers coaching staff!"

The tweet was sent, which quickly caused heated discussion, and fans lamented that McMillan had changed from Su Yang's leader to subordinate.

There are many similar cases in the NBA. Kidd is not that strict to Lawrence Frank and Nash is not that strict to D'Antoni.
Chapter completed!
