Chapter 3 [The organs are exhausted, the clearance is successful]
Yang Rui returned to Manhattan and changed the target to the Knicks.
The Knicks are a playoff powerhouse, and they chose it because he knew that Jeff Van Gundy was a solid coach until the 2001-02 season, and he was a stubborn guy who might not be willing to listen to his assistants.
The advantages of the Knicks are also obvious, that is, the depth of the lineup. From 1995 to 1999, the Knicks have always had the ability to compete for the championship.There are many defensive players on the inside, and two powerful scoring points on the outside. Except for the point guard's strength, they have everything.
Yang Rui is confident to make the Knicks better. As long as Van Gundy listens to some advice, don't always pursue defense to win.
On June 6, Yang Rui came to "the face of New York" - Madison Square Garden.
He didn't immediately send his resume to Knicks management, but worked at a nearby "return snack bar".This is a store run by a Chinese owner. Seeing that he has a good image and works neatly, he is allowed to stay, and his wages are calculated on an hourly basis.
Yang Rui has no money to eat. If he doesn't call Thomas for help, he will starve to death if he doesn't find a job.This is killing two birds with one stone. He must always pay attention to the situation of the Knicks and find a good time to interview.
After the trip to New Jersey, he wanted to understand that if he just held the certificate like this, he would definitely not have the chance to perform. His age and seniority would be the factors that will be sentenced to death.
He'll have to wait, wait for other coaches to compete, and then do a comparison.Everyone has a certificate, so we can't even give him a chance to participate in the discussion, right?
Yang Rui has a good memory in his previous life. He has done NBA data work for many years, and basically remembers major events.He knows what's going on with the Knicks this summer, and it's not going to be easy for Van Gundy.
Last season, the Knicks led the Heat 3-1 in the second round.In the fifth game, Charlie Ward of 5CM was picked up by PJ Brown of 188CM and fell off the court. The two teams immediately began to fight in groups. The melee was very fierce. After the game, the Knicks included Ewing, Starks, Larry Johnson, etc. The main players were suspended, but only Brown was suspended for the Heat.
The absence of Ewing and Alan Houston in Game 4 and the absence of Starks and Larry Johnson in Game 3 resulted in a significant decline in the team's strength.The ignition caused the Knicks to pay a painful price for their rush to the championship, and the Heat came back [-]-[-].
Out in this way, the Knicks owner and fans are very angry.
The old Knicks assistant coach Rex Hughes chose to retire, and another assistant coach Andy Greer's contract expired. He responded to Pat Riley's call and switched to the Heat.With Bob Salmi, who left in 1996, the Knicks coaching staff is left with Van Gundy, a polished commander.
According to the original history, Thibodeau, who was laid off by the 76ers, will join and become the Knicks' first assistant coach. Yang Rui is not clear about the others.He just wanted to wait for Thibodeau to compete with him.
The vision of the 76ers management is speechless. They not only fired Thibodeau, but also the assistant coach Ron Adams, who was also laid off, is also very famous. Later, he became a good helper for Popovich to the Spurs.
In addition to being a waiter in the snack bar every day, Yang Rui also takes time to go to the arena to chat with security guards and doormen to get first-hand information.He bought a fat doorman named Kenning with the special snack mung bean cake, and begged him to call the snack bar when someone came to interview the teaching assistant.
The hard work paid off. On the 27th, Yang Rui finally brought Xibodu to hope, and there was another person who was openly recruited.
"Xiao Xiao, I'll go out and tell my boss, it's urgent." Yang Rui took off his work clothes and shouted in Chinese to the Chinese girls who were working together.
"When are you coming back?"
"afternoon."
Yang Rui took the certificate and rode the bicycle that delivered food at the door to the arena.The snack bar was two blocks away from the arena, and he used the bus privately without hesitation.
This opportunity must be seized, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.For this reason, Yang Rui has also investigated the location of the arena office.
"Sorry, sir, you can't walk around in the work area, do you have an appointment?" the female assistant asked.
"I applied for the Knicks assistant coach, and I was with two people." Yang Rui handed the certificate with a smile.
He didn't say he had an appointment, he only indicated that he was here to apply, playing with words. Even if Van Gundy asked, it wouldn't be a lie.
The female assistant had just seen two similar certificates. She also knew that the management called someone for an interview today. She was undoubtedly fraudulent. She smiled and said, "Sir, please come this way."
"Thank you, I'll go in by myself." Yang Rui deliberately set aside his assistant to avoid embarrassment.
He knocked on the door first, and after hearing the sound of "please come in", he opened the door and walked in. There were four men in the room, two of whom he recognized at a glance.
The forehead is bright, the hair is slightly longer on the sides, and he looks like a little man of Tekken game Mishima Heihachi, who was born on January 1962, 1. Jeff Van Gundy, well, he is actually only 19 years old.
Another guy in a suit is Xibodu, much younger than Yang Rui's impression, with a flat head.Thibodeau is also easy to recognize, and looks like Batman's old rival "Penguin".
The other two older white men he didn't know were general manager Ernie Grunfeld and Ken Boyd, who had come in for an assistant coaching job.
Boyd has a lot of background. He has worked as an NCAA coach for 10 years. He played briefly in the NBA in the 70s. He is a white guard with poor physical fitness.
"Hello everyone, my friend introduced me for an interview. This is my certificate." Yang Rui first smiled at Thibodeau and Van Gundy, and then handed the certificate to Ernie, because Ernie was sitting in the manager's seat.
Van Gundy was the most decisive man in the room and had to please.
Yang Rui's smile at Xibodu was confusing and gave everyone an illusion that Yang Rui was introduced by Xibodu.
Thibodeau also smiled at Yang Rui out of politeness, and both he and Boyd were surprised because Yang Rui was so young.
This Asian is here to compete for a coach?Are you kidding me?
Ernie asked everyone's doubts. "Your name is Jerry Yang, you are only 23 years old this year? Chinese?"
"Well, I grew up in the United States. Today I just want an opportunity to show myself and participate in this assessment. I know that the hope of staying is very slim, and I am very satisfied if I can learn something. I also ask the manager, coach Van Gundy to give me this opportunity. ." After speaking, Yang Rui politely bowed to the two of them.
In the few minutes from the arena to entering the door, Yang Rui did his best.
As the saying goes, when you reach out and don't hit a smiling person, how can he keep his posture so low?
Ernie nodded, as if he had been introduced by a friend.Van Gundy also ignored the details of how Yang Rui came.
The Knicks urgently need to appoint an assistant coach, otherwise there will be no one to lead the summer league in July, and they will have to find a marginal team to investigate new players.
"Okay, we will start the assessment now, everyone listen to my question, everyone must answer." Van Gundy said sternly.
The three people who came to compete for teaching assistants nodded solemnly.
Yang Rui breathed a sigh of relief. For him, the most important first level was successfully passed.
