Chapter 86
After the interview, Su Yang flew back to Portland directly.
The Thunder gave a four-year contract, which can be renegotiated out of the contract in the fourth year, similar to player options, and the annual fixed salary is 350 million US dollars, plus promotion rewards for each round of the playoffs, and other benefits.
The $350 million is naturally a bit less compared to Phil Jackson's $1030 million, and it's not as good as the $600 million of D'Antoni and Nelson, but the level of Hornets coach Byron Scott is only 350 million.
Considering that Thunderclap's main source of funds is a group of investment consortiums, the funds are extremely tight. The 350 million and the exit option can be said to be full of sincerity, and the full amount is guaranteed.
The key point is that with a salary of US$350 million, many investments can be started, and the original accumulation is completed ahead of schedule.
When the plane landed at the airport, Su Yang didn't rush to confirm the acceptance of the job, so he called Kevin and McMillan first.
The three met at the team's training base. Su Yang told them about the success of the interview and said he would accept it.
Kevin and McMillan congratulated him and said they would gather the team for a farewell dinner in his honor.
After he sincerely thanked him, he gave all the ideas that the Blazers had thought about but had no time to implement.
"I suggest not rushing Oden back to play, let him fully recover from his injury, the team is not short of the one or two victories, and supervise Oden to strengthen his leg muscle training to ensure that his leg muscles can support his powerful body." Body."
"As for Oden's position after his comeback, I suggest that he should first play the role of pick-and-roll and frame protection. It is best not to rush him to realize his potential, but to keep him healthy for a long time, and gradually adapt to NBA confrontation and rhythm is the first priority."
"It is also necessary to strictly control Roy's playing time. Before he entered the league, he underwent meniscus surgery. As long as there are signs of injury, he must be suspended for observation until the risk of serious injury is eliminated. In any case, he cannot be allowed to play with injuries."
"Roy's scoring is mainly through face-up changes. For knee injuries, he needs to master low-loss scoring skills such as backs. Even if he sacrifices his record, it doesn't matter. The team has high potential, so there is no need to rush."
"Also keep paying attention to Aldridge, he has a sensitive personality, let him know that he is valued."
"Ade and the others are too gentle. The team also needs a villain who is responsible for standing up in conflicts."
"I also have a tactical notebook here, which records many small forwards as the axis of play..."
Su Yang speaks from the bottom of his heart, and all the content mentioned are places where the Blazers are very likely to make mistakes. It can be regarded as the last help, and it should be regarded as a reward for the kindness of the Blazers. After all, the team will be different in the future, and it will be difficult to give advice. .
After talking about the players, he recommended several offensive assistant coaches to McMillan, such as Terry Stotts. After the prevention left, McMillan and Monty were all defensive coaches, and it was difficult to sort out the team's offense.
After listening to his suggestion, Kevin said that he would give full consideration to the actual situation and terminate the contract on the spot.
Su Yang officially ended his career in the Trail Blazers, and then the three chatted. Kevin and McMillan expressed their expectation that they would have the opportunity to continue to cooperate in the future.
When it was almost evening, Su Yang called Outlaw and others one by one, inviting them to attend the farewell dinner.
Outlaw and others arrived one after another, a little bit sad for him to leave, and congratulated him on his success.
Mike Roberts was very sad. When chatting with Su Yang in private, he was worried that it would be difficult to get the same tactical status in the new season. He also expressed that he was encouraged by him and would insist on trying the organization-oriented style of play and carry the elegance to the end.
Ade also found Su Yang in private, thanking him for allowing the team to give him the same status, and if he has the opportunity to vote with a basic salary in the future.
On the morning of NO.17, Su Yang called Presti and formally accepted the position of head coach of the Supersonics.
Soon, the Sonics officially announced their intention to reach him through Twitter and notifying reporters.
【Welcome to Seattle, coach Su Yang. 】
Below the welcome tweet, a reporter from the Supersonic official website listed Su Yang's main resume, which received a lot of likes.
Su Yang also posted a tweet to express his gratitude, and bought the page of the "Portlander" newspaper to publish the same content.
[To the Portland community: I am very sad at this moment. I am grateful for this time. This is an unforgettable experience in my life.I want to thank the Paul Allen family, and the Kevin Pritchard team, for hiring me.
I would also like to thank the Nate McMillan coaching staff for giving me the stage to do my best.
In the end, I'm very happy to be able to fight with Roy ... Jones 15 people all season.
The mountains are high and the water is far away, we will meet later. 】
The announcement of the two news immediately attracted a lot of attention, and the media and fans discussed it one after another.
[Famous Kai fan Bill Simmons wrote on Twitter: Congratulations to the 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 information I got, the Kings interviewed and humiliated Su Yang, which caused them to lose an excellent head coach, which may be worse than losing a high-ranking rookie. 】
[TNT: Congratulations to Su Yang for becoming the first Asian and the youngest head coach in league history. 】
[Player Kenyon Martin tweeted: Too exaggerated!A 24-year-old man without any professional basketball experience actually became the head coach of an NBA team. Even if he can arrange many wonderful tactics, it is outrageous. There are many black coaches who are better than him in the league. The Sonics have never considered it. , please white people first, then Asians. 】
Kenyon Martin wanted to bring up the topic of racial discrimination, but unfortunately no one paid attention to it, and some people called him an idiot.
Su Yang didn't pay too much attention to all kinds of discussions, and mainly spent his energy on replying text messages and phone calls.
Durant was the first to call him, saying that he was ready to accept his all-round training and eager to improve.
After the two chatted on the phone, Durant immediately followed Su Yang's Twitter account, following five accounts in a row.
Perhaps influenced by Durant, Jeff Green also called Su Yang, saying that he was ready for training at any time.
Dayao and Alian also congratulated him and invited him to return to China during the off-season to serve as a tactical consultant for the national team.
Su Yang readily accepted, and then CCTV, Sina, Weilai Sports and other media also congratulated him.
Ms. Jiang also congratulated him, saying that the news that he was the head coach detonated many circles of international students.
After replying most of the congratulations, Su Yang drove the Mazda and set off again, preparing to go all the way north to Seattle.
"Time is very tight. I need to build an excellent teaching assistant team first, and then go to the draft..."
