After the draft, Jiang Dongbing met David and Jackson at the draft.

Even though David didn't say anything, his face was full of disappointment, while Jackson was proud and looked much happier than David, the No. 1 pick.

"Stephen, that's OK. You're even happier than winning the lottery. Please calm down." Jiang Dongbing said with a smile.

Jackson immediately stopped smiling, "Coach, it's much happier to be able to continue playing under your hands than winning the lottery."

"I'm ready to do a big game in NBA, coach, when will we start training?"

Jiang Dongbing shook his head, "Let's wait for the notification about training first. It's hard to say whether you can train this year. I know how long the negotiation will last."

Jackson looked puzzled. It was hard to say whether he could train? What is this? After he was selected by the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies would not allow him to train during the offseason?

Jiang Dongbing did not explain much and looked at David who looked unhappy, "David, be happy, being selected as the No. 1 pick is something that many players long for in their dreams."

"And according to my observation, Coach Ford is a good coach. Don't worry, you will have a lot of fun in the Clippers."

David didn't say anything, just nodded silently.

...

The next morning, the teams that traded in the draft announced their trading plans.

The deal between the Grizzlies selling Levitra and the first round of the next year has caused quite a lot of heated discussion in the circle, mainly because in the eyes of the outside world, Raheem and Levitra can only play, but now Levitra has been sold.

Although Christie was a good player, she was just not a good player. She was not a star at all, and she was not young anymore. At the age of 28, she still had room for improvement.

As for the exchange for Billups, the deal looks even more stupid. What value can it be for the parallel-made tanhua, which has exchanged two teams in a rookie season?

"Jiang, you have seen it too. The outside world is not optimistic about our deal now." Stewart placed various news newspapers in front of Jiang Dongbing, and said with a wry smile on his face.

"Don't worry, it won't take long to make our transaction a classic deal." Jiang Dongbing said with a smile.

Stewart always felt that Jiang Dongbing was fooling him, but there was no evidence...

"Okay, now that things are almost done, let's take a vacation for yourself. When the next salary negotiations are over, we should start training." Stewart said.

Although he felt that Jiang Dongbing was fooling him, he was still quite looking forward to the Grizzlies' new season, and he always felt that it might be like Jiang Dongbing promised.

Jiang Dongbing nodded, but he was muttering in his heart, when the salary negotiations were over, the daylily was cold.

The wage negotiations began on July 1. This time was originally the time for rookies to sign the contract, but now due to the suspension, the signing of rookies’ contracts may be postponed for a long time.

Jiang Dongbing is also worried whether those newcomers are willing to practice hard during the offseason without signing a rookie contract.

...

On July 1, the NBA wage negotiations officially started.

Maybe everyone is optimistic now. This negotiation is like the previous negotiations. Even if it takes some effort, it will definitely be able to reach an agreement in a short time.

As a result, he waited for half a month and had no news of the successful negotiations. Jackson was already upset. He clearly remembered that Jiang Dongbing said that this negotiation would last for a long time.

"Has the coach guessed again that the negotiation will last for a long time?" Jackson thought curiously.

...

Jiang Dongbing felt that he had to take action. It would not be a big deal to continue to waste like this. He was completely wasting the time for these new players.

First, he asked Stewart, and Jiang Dongbing wanted to see if the team's training ground could be used. If it could be used, everything would be easy to say.

As a result, Stewart refused to agree. He was in negotiations now and he didn't want to be caught.

In desperation, Jiang Dongbing had no choice but to contact Jackson first and ask him to come to Vancouver first and then consider the training ground.

Of course, Jackson set off for Vancouver without saying a word. Even if the rookie contract has not been signed yet, he is willing to stay with Jiang Dongbing.

"Coach, are you going to prepare for special training for me?" Jackson asked happily after seeing Jiang Dongbing.

Jiang Dongbing nodded, "Yes, special training is indeed coming. Although I don't know when the new season will start, I guess I have to wait until February at least."

"We can't waste so much time. We train first. There is a saying that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. The training time of this six months is enough to make you better than other people's rookie seasons."

Jackson was stunned. What a joke? This negotiation will last until February?!

If this was not said from Jiang Dongbing, he would definitely think he had met a madman.

"Coach, you're right, then we'll start training tomorrow, I can't wait."

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step? It's a philosophical saying, I have to tattoo it on my body." Jackson said with his eyes shining.

Jiang Dongbing was speechless. Jackson may be a little addicted to Chinese character tattoos now. If he continues like this, he may become a walking Chinese character dictionary...

"Don't worry, I have to contact the newcomers who joined the team this year, so I can find you a sparring training." Jiang Dongbing shook his head and said.

Your own system can bind two people. In addition to Jackson, you can also bind another player. If you don’t need it, it would be a waste.

The Grizzlies are about to join the team in the new season, including Jackson, Miller, Christie, Billups and Mobri.

Jiang Dongbing first ruled out Christie. Christie is actually in the mature stage now. After all, she is already 28 years old and has little growth potential. It is not worth the effort to bind him.

What Jiang Dongbing values ​​is not Christie's potential, but his immediate combat power.

Under normal circumstances, Christie was actually delayed during the Raptors' period. The Raptors lacked reliable points on the offensive end, which made Christie need to spend a lot of energy on the offensive end.

When it comes to the Kings, who is under Adelman, Christie truly released his strength, defended with all his heart, and put some cold guns from time to time. This is the most suitable way of playing.

It is also true that Christie was selected into the All-Defensive Team for four consecutive years.

Sometimes the role of a coach is reflected in this way. A player is very mediocre under the hands of others, but when he reaches his subordinates, he immediately shines with a strange brilliance.

It has to be said that Adelman is indeed a genius in this field. The ordinary Brad Miller and Christie have both reached the peak of their lives under him.

Jiang Dongbing suddenly realized that half of the corners he dug were from Adelman's men, and it was really unkind to grab one of the wools.
