The Godfather of Basketball

"You talk first, I'll go first." Yao Ming saw the two assistant coaches have something to say, and then left after saying hello.

"Sorry, I didn't say hello to you before I made a decision." Tang Tian said with an apology.

"We guessed a bit."

After hugging with Tang Tian, ​​Cole said.

Tang Tian smiled. As the team's first assistant coach and second assistant coach, it should have been felt long ago.

"Tom, don't be so strict with yourself, you see that your hair really isn't much." Tang Tian joked.

Xibodu listened for a moment, then laughed.

"Steve, help Tom well, he definitely doesn't understand the offensive thing, but your combination will be invincible, and I look forward to playing with you in the future." Tang Tian smiled and looked at Cole.

Cole smiled, but then shook his head.

"I'm ready to accept the Suns' invitation to become their general manager."

Tang Tian hesitated, and Cole's decision was also unexpected.

But he soon understood that he left the Rockets to say that Cole should not be idle this offseason.

"Then we will become partners next season." Tang Tian said with a smile.

Thibodeau laughed as the three big men laughed.

After everything was done, Tang Tian returned the rented apartment, packed his luggage, and then got on the plane to Cleveland.

There, Gilbert has let the people below rent a whole apartment for him, which is part of the benefits in his new contract.

Cleveland is a standard small city. As the capital city, it has an area of ​​less than 4,000 square kilometers and a population of only 300,000 to 100,000. It ranks 45th in the United States, and it is completely incomparable with Houston.

This is why Gilbert, as a billionaire, attaches so much importance to James.

Because only James can bring him the greatest business benefits.

The plane roared down from the clouds, and the town of Cleveland jumped out of sight.

The sprawling buildings, although small, have all the internal organs, and Lake Erie in the north also adds a touch of beauty to the city.

The plane landed at Cleveland International Airport. Tang Tian stepped out of the cabin and felt a hot and humid air wave coming from the air.

Cleveland is located in the central part of the United States. The climate is temperate and humid, and the seasons are clear. For people who lived in Jiangsu and Zhejiang in previous lives, they really felt like coming home.

From the exit, a large group of fans have been seen holding a sign welcoming him, cheering and beckoning to him vigorously when he saw him.

Depending on the number of people, there are one or two hundred less, and most of them have blocked the airport entrance.

It seems that although the city is small, the fans here are very enthusiastic.

This is a good start.

He smiled, greeted the fans, signed, and took photos.

The fans here are also very patient, and their faces are more exciting than others, and they can see that they are quite excited that Tang Tian finally chose to join them.

When he was done with these fans, a few Cavaliers staff appeared later.

"Coach, hello, I'm Dante, responsible for your pick-up and drop off task today." A young man who looks almost the same as Tang Tian, ​​with a dirty pigtail, smiles and greets Tang Tian.

Tang Tian shook hands with him, and then took a seat to pick up his car.

The car went out of the airport and onto the highway.

To say that a small city also has the advantage of a small city, that is, there will be relatively fewer cars on the road. After getting on the elevated road, there will be fewer traffic jams than Houston.

Tang Tian was sitting in the car, chatting with Dante, and looking out the window. He would live in this city for a long time.

Just then, he suddenly saw a large billboard erected outside the viaduct, which turned out to be himself.

This……

Welcome, Tang Tian!

Beside the billboard, there is also a big slogan.

"Look there, it was the billboard that was rushed out yesterday." Just then, Dante turned and stretched out his fingers.

It was rushed yesterday and it was really efficient.

"Mayor Frank heard that you made it overnight after you decided to join the Cavaliers. There are ten such billboards in the ten most prominent places in the city. Now as long as you are a Cleveland, you should know you." Dante Then go on.

"Yes, coach, Cleveland welcomes you," the driver said with a smile.

Ten dollars ...

Tang Tian was a bit flattered.

And the mayor came forward, it seems that the Cavaliers have a very high position in Cleveland.

The car kept moving forward, Tang Tian also saw several billboards one after another, and they were indeed in a prominent position.

After getting out of the city, he was taken to his apartment.

A standard two-story and semi-small bungalow with a large area and a swimming pool in the backyard. Of course, the most important thing is that it is only ten minutes away from the arena.

Gilbert really thought about it.

Luggage also happened to come from the airport. The staff put everything away at his request, and he instantly had a new home in Cleveland.

"Coach, take a break here, and I will take you out for dinner at night. If there is anything, please contact me at any time." Dante said after finishing everything, before leaving.

"You're busy." Tang Tian said with a smile.

His mood is very good, compared with the Rockets, the Cavaliers have given him a sense of great attention.

It seems that he made the right choice.

After dinner, he returned to his residence, took a look at the team list for a while, and Gilbert came to visit.

This time it was him alone.

"Don, the managers and coaches have all left the team before, so tomorrow, only you and Dante will go to New York."

Tang Tian thought he was visiting, but he did not expect to bring a bad news to himself.

This is the bare commander ~ www.readwn.com ~ Rest assured, Dante is a member of the team's operating department, and he has no problem communicating with the general managers of other teams. "

"That's okay." Tang Tian was relieved when he heard this. If he called the other team's draft team on the first day, it wouldn't fit him well.

Because there are only two days left until the start of the draft, Tang Tian's coaching team and manager team have not had time to form, and after two days of adjustment, he and Dante boarded a plane to New York.

The draft is still going on at Madison Garden Plaza, where Tang Tian met many of the hot rookies this year.

Blake Griffin, Hashem Thabeet, Tyreke Evans ... James Harden and Stephen Curry, who have skyrocketed recently.

When I walked to the draft cabin from the passage on the second floor, I happened to meet the Rockets draft team.

Morey's mood doesn't look good. There have been rumors that Artest and the Rockets had a disagreement on renewing their contract. It doesn't seem to be groundless.
