"Kid, do you have time to talk to an old man like me?"

Just as Lin Hao was about to leave the training hall, Larry Brown called him.

"Of course there is time!"

Lin Hao said.

Perhaps the coach has a solution to these problems of the team.

Larry Brown's office.

"Long time no see, your ball skills have improved again, you are really promising!"

"Last season before last, if it weren't for you, our Pistons would have won the championship."

Larry Brown handed over a cup of coffee and said with a smile.

"Haha, you're joking!"

Lin Hao looked at the old man and felt extremely emotional.

The season before last, he helped the Lakers defeat the Pistons coached by Larry in the finals.

Now, they have become master and apprentice.

It’s so unpredictable!

"I just noticed that you were a little down after the training match."

"I guess you can see the team's current problems?"

Larry Brown said.

"That's right!"

"My biggest problem is, why is Kirk Hinrich so hostile to me?"

"I didn't provoke him at all."

Lin Hao said impatiently.

"It's actually very simple. Hinrich has always been the core of the team that the Bulls have focused on cultivating."

"Because of you, he was traded to the Knicks and is now the second or even third in command."

"Do you think he'll be happy?"

Larry Brown took a puff of his cigar and spoke slowly.

"I see! I hadn't thought of that!"

Lin Hao patted his head.

"Don't worry about it. I'll talk to him."

Larry Brown said.

In fact, he is also very optimistic about Kirk Hinrich (in fact, he likes all players with good defense).

I believe that Hinrich will definitely become Lin Hao's right-hand man in the future.

Otherwise, how could Larry Brown tolerate someone who dared to challenge the team boss?

"Thanks a lot, Mr. Brown!"

Lin Hao said sincerely.

Of course, he won't put all his hopes on the head coach.

He also has to take action himself.

"By the way, kid, I have an idea."

"I think Trevor (Ariza) is a better starter than Crawford."

Larry Brown said.

Logically speaking, as the head coach, he does not need to discuss the deployment of troops with anyone.

But letting a guy averaging 4.6 points per game start and a guy averaging 14 points per game come off the bench is such a serious matter that the team boss must be informed.

"I also think so!"

Lin Hao was a little surprised. His idea was actually the same as Coach Qiansheng's.

It really is true that great minds think alike!

In fact, it is not surprising that Larry Brown has this idea.

That's what happened when he coached the 76ers.

One person (Iverson) tried his best to attack, and the other four tried their best to defend.

Relying on this style of play, the team snatched a victory from the OK combination, which was at the peak of its popularity, in the finals.

"It's just that Trevor's ability doesn't seem to be up to the level of a starter."

Lin Hao continued.

This was another major concern of his.

"Don't worry, Trevor has good defensive awareness and strong physical fitness. He definitely has the potential to become a defensive stalwart."

"As long as he is given time, he can at least be selected for the defensive team in the future."

Larry Brown said firmly.

I have to say, his vision is really good!

……

The next day is media day.

Larry Brown thought for a long time before taking his final photo.

In the end, it was decided to let Marbury stand on Lin Hao's right.

Although this troublemaker was not in his plan, he was an All-Star player after all, so it was not easy to suppress him too much.

Finally, Lin Hao stood in the C position, with Koksinrich and Marbury standing on both sides of him.

Next is the media interview session.

A reporter asked Lin Hao: "Lin, what kind of results do you think you can achieve in the new season?"

"Champion! Of course it's the champion!"

"If I don't win a championship, what's the point of me coming to New York?"

Lin Hao said without hesitation.

"Fuck!"

The reporters were in an uproar.

How dare you say that!

With such a rubbish lineup, you still dream of winning the championship?
