Korean entertainment, I am crazy

After the game, the Chinese reporter accompanying the team conducted an exclusive interview with Zhang Bin.After confirming that Yang Rui is of Chinese descent, everyone is a little excited. No matter what nationality he is, he is the one who can speak Mandarin.

With a group of unknown players playing in the national team, Yang Rui proved his strength and his photos were published in many Chinese newspapers the next day.

There are more and more fans in China watching the NBA. Yang Rui became a coach at the age of 23.

In the United States, Yang Rui did not have reporters to interview.Unlike in the 21st century, there is not so much attention in the summer league. Journalists should pay more attention to those potential rookies.The Knicks have no big names, except for Stephen Jackson, they are a group of losers.

The Knicks management dispelled their doubts, even if they could not win in the end, Yang Rui deserves praise for this game.

In the second game, the Knicks' opponent was the Lakers.

After a season of tempering, Kobe has entered a stable rotation lineup. The coaching staff does not need him to participate in the summer league. This time the Lakers have sent marginal players. The leader is the second-round rookie, 183CM point guard DeJuan Witte .

A group of uninfluenced players faced the five strongmen selected by Yang Rui, and the ending was no accident. The Lakers were battered at halftime.

114 to 74, the Knicks won by 40 points.

Six people on the team scored in double figures, and the two blue-collars tried their best to show their defensive talents. The offense has nothing to do with them.

Yang Rui clearly told Bowen that he would practice the right corner three-pointer, not even the left, and focus on the defensive end.Do these things to ensure that he can stay with the Knicks in the new season.

Ben Wallace’s task is equally simple. On the offensive end, he doesn’t care about anything but the basket. He controls the rebounds, resists from the low post, and helps to block the shots!

Both of them have a big head when it comes to offense. They don't know how to play if they don't.As a result, the opponents will be unlucky. Now put these two in the NBA, and the defensive end is also high.

Wallace played 31 minutes, 12 points, 22 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 7 blocks. Among them, 10 offensive rebounds were abnormal data.

Bowen had 5 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist. He played 26 minutes and his opponent wanted to cry.

The strongest offense was still Jackson and Atkins, who scored 26 and 24 points respectively.

After getting the battle report, the manager Ernie Grunfeld called a meeting of management staff and announced the good news."The second big win over the Lakers, it seems that we have to prepare a party to celebrate, the boss of this money is definitely happy to give it. Glen, do you think Jerry can lead the team to the victory now?"

"I think this kid is a monster now. A team of marginal players can play this kind of game. It's really..." Glenn Walsh got stuck and couldn't find a suitable word to describe it.

"Can't explain, right? Jeff, what do you think?" Ernie asked with a smile.

Van Gundy was almost curiously unable to sit still, and wanted to go to Long Beach to watch the game.But no, if I go, I don't know what he will be said in the news.

He said seriously: "I think Jerry is rehearsing the Knicks' offensive tactics for the new season. Moore is like Ewing, who is responsible for air cuts and mid-range shots after screens, and Wallace is like Oakley, who is responsible for defense and rebounding. Atkins is like Houston, in charge of running, catching and shooting. Jackson is suitable for chaos and can pass the ball. As for Bowen, he should be outstanding defensively."

Scott Maguire asked: "Is this the team's starter?"

"Yeah, what's the matter?" Van Gundy asked back.

Scott swallowed and spit, and smiled bitterly: "This is the list that Jerry reported to me before. He only selected five people, these five..."

hiss.In the conference room, everyone took a breath.

The few people looked at each other. If Yang Rui hadn't beaten them, he would be optimistic about these five people. How to explain?Innate insight?If playing well is due to tactics, he can really only describe it as "enchanted".

In the summer league, not many teams are willing to choose blue-collar. The selection criteria for each team is to find good data, so this kind of game is usually strong and weak.Yang Ruijian went slant and chose two blue collars, but they played a big role.

"Anyway, I don't have any problems with this kid." Glenn agreed with Yang Rui bachelor."Hey, don't look at me that way, it's just that he is really too young, so I suspect that he is incapable. Now I am the first to approve of him as an assistant."

Ernie smiled: "I hope he can bring more surprises."

In the third game, the Knicks defeated the Warriors 106 to 88.

Stephen Jackson showed his power, scoring 38 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists.When the players have hot hands, the Warriors have a small defender on the side. Jackson did a good job, how to shoot, and 7 of 11 three-pointers.

Shooting three-pointers is not his strong point, and it is unreasonable to get convulsions.

In the fourth game, the Knicks defeated the Suns 110 to 103.

The points difference is not big, because Yang Rui changed the style of play, Bowen and Wallace truce, and both sides attacked.Many people won't get the chance to play in the preseason, and Yang Rui gave them time to perform.

Facts have proved that black players with low quotient have no future, and there are stars in the scramble battle. How can it be possible to let the marginal people who are not defensive go up?Except for the five future strongmen selected by Yang Rui, only Brad Jones performed well. He has a high basketball quotient, accurate shooting, and poor confrontation.

In the face of the bad Suns, the Knicks almost lost.Jackson and the field were judged to be two people, 6 of 21 shots, 7 three-pointers missed, and free throws only 14 points.

Jackson took the initiative to bow his head to apologize to Yang Rui after the game, for fear of losing the chance to play the preseason for the Knicks.

Yang Rui forgave him generously."I can understand why you want to behave, because the sun gave up on you, but next time you want to show up, you must use a smarter way."

In the last game, the Knicks played against the 76ers.

The 76ers have three rookies participating in the preseason, including 7 power forward Tim Thomas in the first round, 21 swingman Anthony Parker, and 14 point guard Eric Snow in the second round, plus poor performance last year. Marc Blanco, the marginal center, is very strong, and his goal is directed at the summer league championship.

The Knicks' performance made people shine, and the opening relied on tight defense to firmly control the situation.

The blue-collars have an obvious role. Bowen’s main offensive point, Parker, feels nothing. No matter how bad his offense is, his starting position is unmovable. He is second in the team in average minutes per game, second only to Ben Wallace.

Big Ben is stronger, grabs every rebound and dominates the basket.

Jackson also performed well, as a cameo power forward to defend the No. 7 pick Thomas in the second half.

Atkins and Moore promised to attack firepower. With 3 minutes left in the game, the Knicks led by 20 points and the victory was set.

Yang Rui asked Brad to sit next to him and talk to him alone."Your shooting is very good, averaging 15.3 points per game, 44% from three-point shooting, eye-catching data, but your defense and organization are too poor, and you suffer from confrontation. In order not to delay your job search, I will now give you a letter. You definitely have no chance to play the preseason for the Knicks, unfortunately."

Brad was immediately lost."I know."

"Don't give up, you are still young. I have a suggestion that suits you. If you don't mind leaving home, you can go to the Chinese CBA League to try. I think you will become a star there."

Yang Rui knows that there is no confrontation in CBA at this time.

"..." Brad bit his lip and said awkwardly "thank you".

The 24-year-old was really awkward when he heard the 23-year-old say "you are still young"!At the end of the game, 106 to 83, the Knicks won the summer league championship.

The players walked into the court to shake hands.Players who played well and role players had completely different moods, so a weird scene occurred. Many people smiled bitterly and did not seem to celebrate the championship.

The organizer carried out a simple award ceremony, and both the champion and the MVP had trophies.

Yang Rui took the trophy, took a look at it, and handed it to Sibodu. Sibodu was very happy. Guess the two will have a lot of bonuses back.This victory will allow them to gain a foothold directly in the coaching staff.

Thibodeau is old and needs a stable job. He doesn't want to live a life of ups and downs. The Knicks are a good choice.

He couldn't help raising the trophy and yelled twice, and found that Yang Rui had no response, and the embarrassment had committed again.

Why do you look more like a young man?!

Chucky Atkins was elected the summer league MVP, averaging 24.5 points, 2 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game. As the team's top scorer, his statistics are very beautiful.

But if Yang Rui chooses, he will give the MVP to Ben Wallace, averaging 9.2 points, 19.7 rebounds, 1.5 steals, 5 blocks and 6 fouls per game. This data is even more amazing.

Because the summer league rule is that 10 fouls will be sent off, Big Ben has played magical data. According to the standard of the regular season, he will be sent off per game. This is probably the reason why he was not selected.

He showed fierce defense and was at the level of the playoffs. He hit opponents stumbling, and many balls NBA won't blow.Join the Knicks, the big book is more useful.

Sports reporters who know how to play also think so. A reporter from "The Ring World" interviewed Daben."You played well in the league this time. It is the defensive pillar of the team. What do you think about winning the championship?"

Daben said excitedly: "Defense is my job. I feel great. I can run freely on the court, block shots and rebound. I want to thank the coach for his trust in me."

The reporter asked: "Do you think you will get a contract with the Knicks? Will your height become some kind of obstacle?"

"I hope so. I'm fully prepared. I don't think height is a hindrance. Charles Oakley is not tall. It is more important to be brave inside. I have watched many Charles games. He is a great defender. I Always trying to learn something from him."

Big Ben and Oakley have known each other for a long time and regard Oakley as his big brother, which is why he especially wants to join the Knicks.He didn't want to say this in front of the media unless he became famous one day.

Yang Rui took a photo with the players and was about to return to the locker room when he was stopped by a blonde reporter.

"Hello, I'm a reporter from the Los Angeles Sports Channel, can I take you some time?"

"Of course." Yang Rui smiled.

The cameraman pointed the camera at him, and Yang Rui was a little nervous.Facing the camera alone is different from sitting on the sidelines and coaching.

"How old are you this year? What's your name?"

"23 years old, Jerry Yang."

The female reporter was taken aback and asked in surprise: "You became an assistant coach for the Knicks at the age of 23 and led the team to achieve good results. How did you do it? Is there any secret?"

"Tom Thibodeau and I went to an interview with the management to discuss basketball tactics, and then we stayed together. This is not the secret, but the strength." Yang Rui smiled and said very simple.

The female reporter felt that he was extremely high profile and extremely confident.

"For the Knicks, do you have anything to say?"

"When he joined the Knicks, Jeff Van Gundy was a young coach. Now he continues the Knicks' tradition of valuing people's talents and not looking at age. I am very grateful to him and the management for giving me the opportunity to prove myself."

The female reporter asked: "How many points did you give yourself this summer league?"

"Full score." Yang Rui smiled.

If humble is too hypocritical, he scores himself low, what about the coaches who lost to the Knicks?Can only be expelled?

The reporter asked: "Where do you think you will go in the future? After the NBA regular season starts, are you confident to help the team achieve good results?"

"Of course, I will work with my colleagues in the coaching staff to assist Jeff and arrange the best tactics for the stars."

The interview was over quickly. Assistant coaches were rarely interviewed. Only Yang Rui, a Chinese-American, or a future Spurs female coach would have the opportunity to be exposed.

Yang Rui is satisfied. The Los Angeles Sports Channel should have a lot of viewers. This will increase his popularity. There are only a handful of people who have this honor at the beginning of his career.

Now the most shocking is not the fans, but the two classmates and friends of Thomas Bentley.In the past, "Jerry", who they loved to answer, led the Knicks to the summer championship, and reporters interviewed after the game.

Ylf Rosenberg’s eyes stared out, like Roger Rabbit who was framed.The game was broadcast live in Los Angeles, Thomas called to let them watch.

His girlfriend Hannah McFallin, who is also a student at Columbia University, asked: "Am I dreaming? That humble guy actually became an NBA coach, and his age broke the record?"

Ylf is in a daze, and I don't know what to say. Yang Rui's way of rising is more difficult than winning the lottery.Thomas let them watch TV, just like slap them in the face with action, don't look down on others in the future, it is too shameless.

At this time, the phone rang.

Hannah picked it up. Thomas called.

"Hey, tell you, now I am going to New York to develop with Jerry, you won't persuade me?" Thomas proudly showed off on the phone.

"He is a coach, you are a finance, even in New York, you can't cooperate, why do you insist?" Hannah smiled bitterly.

"You are my good friends. I have known each other for more than 4 years. I have known Jerry for 23 years. I have been a family since I can remember. Will you leave your only family in New York and go to Los Angeles?"

Hannah is silent. She has no reason to be dissatisfied. In the past, she only felt that Jerry was dragging his feet, which made Thomas' quality of life deteriorate. Now the other party is an NBA coach. What can you say as a friend?It certainly doesn't hurt to know such a great person.

Ylf beckoned and answered the phone."Tom, go to New York if you want to. When you come to Los Angeles in the future, ask Jerry to play with you. Don't forget us if you develop."

"Of course I can't forget."

"You must be cautious when investing, and if you have any difficulties, call." Ylf asked.

"I won't be polite to you." Thomaston said with a smile, "Don't make the atmosphere so heavy, maybe we will have the opportunity to do something together, I will definitely start a company if I have money."

"Do you think I like to work for people? It's not necessarily who started the company first." Ylf snorted.

Thomas finished his internship the day before yesterday, talked a few words and hung up the phone, ready to fly back to New York with Yang Rui.
