After the interview, Su Yang flew back to Portland directly.

The Thunder gave a four-year contract, which can be renegotiated in the fourth year, similar to the player option, and the annual fixed salary is $3.5 million, plus the bonus of each round of the playoffs, as well as other benefits.

$3.5 million is naturally a bit less than Phil Jackson's $10.3 million, and it is not as good as $6 million for D'Antoni and Nelson's Old Nelson, but the Hornets head coach Byron Scott's level is only 3.5 million.

Considering that Thunder’s main source of funds is a group of investment consortiums, the funds are particularly tight, 3.5 million and the option to jump out, it can be said that it is full of sincerity, or full guarantee, and there is no requirement to achieve a record of 3.5 million and fully trust it.

The key is that with a salary of $3.5 million, many investments can be started and the original accumulation can be completed ahead of schedule.

The plane landed at the airport, and Su Yang did not rush to confirm his acceptance of work, so he called Kevin and McMillan first.

The three met at the team's training base, and Su Yang told the two of them that the interview was successful and said that he would accept it.

Kevin and McMillan congratulated him and said they would gather the entire team to hold a farewell dinner for him.

After thanking him sincerely, he gave all the ideas that the pioneers had already thought about but had no time to practice.

"I suggest that you don't rush to let Oden come back and join the game, so that he can fully recover his injury. The team is not short of one or two wins, and you also need to supervise Oden to strengthen leg muscle training to ensure that his leg muscles can support his strong body."

"For Oden's position after his comeback, I suggest that he plays the role of pick-and-roll and frame protection first. It is best not to rush to let him realize his potential, keep him healthy for a long time, and gradually adapt to the NBA confrontation and rhythm. The top priority is."

"Roy's time to play must be strictly controlled. He had meniscus surgery before entering the league. As long as there are signs of injury, he must be allowed to wait until the risk of serious injury is relieved. He cannot be allowed to play with injuries in any case."

"Roy's scoring is mainly through the face frame change. He has a large knee injury and needs to master low-loss scoring skills such as back body. Even if he sacrifices his record, it doesn't matter. The team has a high potential, so there is no need to rush for a moment."

"We must also keep our attention to Aldridge. He has a more sensitive personality and let him know to value him."

"Ad and his men are too gentle. The team still needs a bad guy to stand up during the conflict."

"I also have a tactical note here, which records a lot of playing styles using small forwards as a shaft..."

Su Yang's heartfelt words and references are all the things that the Trail Blazers are most likely to make mistakes. They are considered as giving the final help, just as a reward for the Trail Blazers' kindness. After all, the teams are different in the future, so it is difficult to give any advice.

After finishing the player's remarks, he recommended several assistant coaches who prefer offense, such as Tristots. After preventing the departure, McMillan and Monty were all defensive coaches, making it difficult to sort out the team's offense.

After listening to his suggestion, Kevin said that he would fully consider the actual situation and terminate the contract on the spot.

Su Yang officially ended his career as a Trail Blazers, and then the three started chatting. Kevin and McMillan expressed their hope to continue to cooperate in the future. Whether it is in Trail Blazers or elsewhere, the three-person relationship network will be established like this.

When it was almost evening, Su Yang called Otero and others one by one and invited them to attend the farewell dinner.

Otero and others arrived one after another, feeling a little reluctant to leave him and congratulated him on his success.

McRoberts was quite sad. When chatting with Su Yang in private, he was worried that it would be difficult to get the same tactical position in the new season. He also said that he was inspired by him and would insist on trying the organization-oriented style of playing and keeping elegance to the end.

Ade also found Su Yang privately and thanked him for giving the team the same status, and he would definitely invest in the basic salary if he had the chance in the future.

On the morning of the 17th, Su Yang called Presti and officially accepted the position of supersonic head coach.

Soon, Supersonics officially announced that it had reached an intention with him through Twitter and notifying reporters.

[Welcome to Seattle, Coach Su Yang.]

Below the welcome tweet, the Supersonic official website reporter listed Su Yang’s main resume and received a lot of likes.

Su Yang also posted a Twitter post to express his gratitude and bought the Portlander newspaper page to publish the same content.

[To the Portland Community: I am very reluctant to leave at this moment. I am very grateful for this time. This is an unforgettable experience in my life. I want to thank the Paul Allen family and Kevin Prichard team for hiring me.

I also want to thank Nate McMillan coaching staff for giving me the full play.

Finally, I was so happy to be able to fight Roy...Jones Fifteen all season.

The mountains are high and the water is far away, we will have a time later.]

The two news was released and instantly attracted a lot of attention, and the media and fans discussed it.

[The famous Kaifan Bill Simmons tweeted: Congratulations to Seattle Supersonics, you have got a head coach who leads the league trend, and he will fully prove my point about last year's draft - Durant is stronger than Oden.]

[Famous commentator Stephen A. Smith: According to the anonymous news I received, the Kings humiliated Su Yang in an interview, which caused them to lose an excellent head coach, which may be worse than losing a high pick.]

[TNT: Congratulations to Su Yang on becoming the first Asian and youngest head coach in league history.]

[Player Kenyon? Martin tweeted: It's so exaggerated! A 24-year-old man who has no professional basketball experience actually became the head coach of an NBA team. Even if he can arrange many wonderful tactics, it's outrageous. There are many black coaches in the league who are better than him. The Supersonics never considered it. They first invited white people and Asians.]

Kenyon Martin wants to raise the topic of racial discrimination, but unfortunately no one pays attention to it. Some people call him a fool.

Su Yang did not pay too much attention to all kinds of discussions, and mainly devoted himself to replying to text messages and phone calls.

The first call to him was Durant, who said he was ready to accept his full range of exercises and was eager to improve.

After the two chatted, Durant followed Su Yang's Twitter account and followed five consecutive accounts.

Perhaps influenced by Durant, Jeff Green also called Su Yang and said that he could train at any time.

Yao and Ah Lian also congratulated him and invited him to return to China for offseason as a tactical consultant for the national team.

Su Yang accepted it happily, and then media such as CCTV, Sina and Weilai Sports also congratulated him.

Miss Jiang also congratulated him, saying that the news that he served as the head coach has triggered many circles of international students.

After replying to most of the congratulations, Su Yang drove Mazda to set off again, preparing to head north to Seattle.
Chapter completed!
