Brad Stevens is 29 years old this year, a sunny white handsome guy, Yan Yan is currently eligible to join Yang Rui's Justice League. From his resume, he can see how much he loves basketball.
In 1999, the 23-year-old Brad resigned as the marketing operations director of Eli Lilly and joined Butler University as an unpaid basketball volunteer.
What kind of madman would leave the largest pharmaceutical company in the United States and be willing to be a volunteer? If you are pursuing a stable job in China, your parents will probably have to hire a fairy to draw a symbol in his bedroom to slay the demon.
In 2001, Brad Stevens began to work as an assistant coach at Butler University and has been working until now. After hearing that the Lakers were going to recruit new teaching assistants, he sent his resume with a try mentality. If it succeeded, it would be a step forward.
Yang Rui called and said that Brad was selected, and Kupchak couldn't believe it. "Are you looking for this young college assistant? Aren't there a lot of NBA assistants? There are also retired NBA players."
The implication is that casually finding someone is more qualified than Brad, such as Fred Hoiberg who played in the Lakers.
However, Yang Rui believes that the most promising of all those who submit resumes is Brad.
In Yang Rui’s previous life, Brad served as Butler University’s head coach from 2007 to 2013. The coach’s winning percentage was as high as 77.2%, leading Butler University to the NCAA Finals twice, after Bob Knight’s rate since 1973. The team has scored the youngest head coach in the NCAA Final Four and the youngest head coach to lead the team to the finals since 1940.
On July 4, 2013, the Celtics announced the appointment of Brad as the team's 17th head coach. The two sides signed a six-year contract with a total value of 22 million US dollars.
Brad was a difficult one for the Celtics because Angie sent Pierce and Garnett away in the summer. By the way, coach Rivers was also traded to the Clippers, creating a precedent for trading head coaches.
Anji broke the jar and was ready to rebuild. Last season, James scored 45 points against the Greens, and he didn't have to play. As a result, there weren't even any people who wanted to bid for the Green Army in the summer. The rest of the Green Army must be at the bottom.
At this time, Stevens stood up and said: "IcanIup"!
In the absence of support, he took a group of players who were not optimistic. After a year of running-in, he played 40 wins and 42 losses in the 2014-15 season. He returned to the playoffs and won the title of "less handsome". .
Then in the 2016-17 season, everyone's chin was not so good that the ground fell to the ground. The Green Army actually took the first in the regular season in the east. The core is Isaiah Thomas with only 175CM. The Greens also reached the Eastern Conference finals, losing 1 to 4 to the Cavaliers, although they were defeated.
You know, the Cavaliers lineup is too terrible, aside from the Big Three and TT Thompson, the substitutes JR Smith and Champport are tens of millions of annual salary, Korver 5.24 million, Fry 7.81 million, the marginal people who don’t want money are German Celebrities such as Long Williams, Derek Williams, Deng Tai-Jones, Richard Jefferson, James Jones and others.
The Cavaliers' star salary and luxury tax amount to 160 million a year. This is not playing but money. The Green Army loses the ball too well, after all, the Cavaliers can win against the Big Four Warriors...a game.
In short, Yang Rui knows Brad’s future achievements, and knows that this man is flexible and bold in tactics. Even if he has not learned now, he will become better in the future. He can do Bole and make him stand out earlier.
"Jerry" coaches are increasing, and if they are going to be head coaches in the future, Yang Rui also has a bright face.
When Brad received a call from Kupchak, he made a big joke because he did not believe in the identity of the other Lakers manager. "Don't think I've lied to you without hearing your voice. Are you definitely a friend of David?"
Kupchak suddenly felt that the goods were unreliable. Yang Rui just looked at the resume in his email and decided to be a teaching assistant, which was too hasty.
"I don't know how your friends usually joke with you, but I am really the Lakers general manager Kupchak, and Jerry Yang asked me to inform you that I will come to Los Angeles the second round of interviews the day after tomorrow. The location is..."
The other party said the location seriously and asked him to rush to Los Angeles as soon as possible before Brad was convinced that this was not a prank. No matter how nonsense a friend is, he will not flick him from the Midwest Indianapolis to Los Angeles.
Hanging up the phone, Brad jumped up excitedly. Being able to enter the second round of interviews is a success for him. This is the Lakers. There are definitely many people who want to join. His unqualified college assistant can discuss tactics with NBA-level assistant coaches, which is proof of his strength.
Kupchak responded quickly, without saying that Yang Rui had already decided to be Brad, otherwise he would not believe it.
The next day, Brad was ready to fly to Los Angeles fully, dressed appropriately, and arrived at the hotel near the Staples Center one day in advance, taking a good rest, recuperating, and trying to greet important people with the best mental appearance. Interview. Although he didn't expect much, what if he stayed? He has been in college for five years and has long been looking forward to promotion. The NBA is his ultimate goal.
The result was more dramatic than Brad thought. He went to the manager's office to see Kupchak and Yang Rui. There were no other interviewers. His mood suddenly relaxed a lot, and the pressure of some competition was mostly.
Yang Rui talked with him about the work of the new season and the basketball concept, and asked him a few questions.
Brad has been trained as a professional coach, and the foundation for team training is very solid, and the answers are good.
Yang Rui also asked him what he thinks about the Lakers' current tactics and how he intends to use the team's marginalists. These questions are not easy to fight, and must be constructive.
What tactics the Lakers' rotation players played last season, as long as the coaches who pay attention to the game can tell, there is nothing great about it. It is the skill to use Gibson and Millsap rookies.
The opportunity is for those who are prepared. Brad has eaten the Lakers' tactics thoroughly. Many of Butler University's tactics are copied Lakers. Of course, this is related to the Lakers playing tactics last season is relatively simple, if it is the Wizards team that kind of multiplayer off-ball running position ~ EbookFREE.me ~ no matter how experienced the coach will be messy after looking at it, you have to study slowly.
He believes that the key to the Lakers' starting tactics is to help the superstars play their personal abilities. As long as they open up space to create singles opportunities and misplaced singles opportunities, there is no need to change it. If there is a coach to arrange complex running tactics for the "drug combination" , That is definitely a neuropathy.
On the marginal side of the team, Brad appreciates the speed and breakthrough of a small guard, suggesting to reuse Louis Williams next season; Millsap and Louis can play a pick-and-roll, Wharton, Capono, Gibson are in The outside opened a chance to shoot a three-pointer; Hayes played a single role and could only defend. The offensive end was on the side of the post to prepare for the frontcourt rebounds to attract defense and not to go out to cover.
In college, Brad suggested to reuse the small guard who can break through with speed, but the head coach did not allow it.
In the NCAA, players with poor confrontation and short stature often have no chance of sitting on the bench. Stephen Curry is an example. He shoots well. He didn't want to graduate from high school when he graduated from high school. In the end, Dad took care of the relationship and joined a bad team. Louis has not been optimistic, almost did not play last season.
Brad's idea was that Yang Rui's heart was there. When Mo Williams left, he did intend to increase Louis' playing time, and he can also shoot a three-pointer. Louis's breakthrough ability beats Gibson and Jones.
If the lineup of the Lakers' marginalists is good, the offense and defense are not weak, and Brad thinks that the tactics are very reasonable. He is flexible and thinks that on-the-spot contingency is the most important in the game, and he will certainly be qualified as an assistant coach next season.
After the chat, Kupchak came up with the prepared contract, the first two years of guarantee, the third year of the team option, and the new assistant was determined.
