Seeing that Sun Yue was so willing to move forward steadily, Li Tuanjie finally felt relieved!

After Sun Yue and Nick Young were assigned to the Development League, there is actually one more person on the Bucks' fifteen-man roster...

Li Tuanjie has some difficulties. The extra person will definitely have to be transferred to the Development League. Who to transfer is a huge problem!

Li Sanjing definitely cannot be delegated. Li Tuanjie must keep Li Sanjing by his side and train him well. Li Sanjing will definitely be able to play a good role in the positional competition next season!

It is not easy for Yi Jianlian to be transferred to the Development League. In fact, in Li Tuanjie's view, what Yi Jianlian lacks is not physical fitness and skills, but what he lacks more is self-confidence and the ability to communicate with teammates on the court. Li Tuanjie decided to transfer Yi Jianlian Stay around and see what happens.

Nikola and Mbah a Moute are both bargaining chips for Li Tuanjie to prepare for the trade. They will definitely be given a large amount of playing time in the first month or two before the start of the game...

After thinking for a long time, Li Tuanjie finally chose Westbrook...

The reason for choosing Westbrook is very simple, that is, Westbrook's current character is not very mature and he is more likely to be out of control. Li Tuanjie first sent him to the Development League to give him some power and allow his character to be restrained. Some……

When Westbrook learned about this result, you can imagine the shock in his heart. He originally thought that Li Tuanjie spent such a high price and traded Rondo for himself to cultivate himself, but he did not expect that he would be directly transferred to the Development League...

Although both Nick Young and Sun Yue comforted Westbrook and said that this was only temporary, Westbrook was also extremely unconvinced...

The Bucks have selected so many rookies this year, and Westbrook has the highest draft pick, why should he be delegated? !

A top-five pick who was sent to the G-League without playing a single game? ! This has never happened in the entire history of the NBA!

When the Bucks held a press conference to announce the news, the reporters in the audience were stunned for a long time. They couldn't understand the Bucks' operation...

In the past two years, the Bucks' operations in player transactions and player disposal have always dumbfounded reporters and experts. They scratched their heads and couldn't figure out what the Bucks' purpose was...

However, after the reporters were stunned for a short time, they immediately remembered the purpose of their participation in the press conference today!

It’s not the Bucks’ rookie players devolved, it’s not the Bucks’ goal for the new season, it’s Stotts…

That's right, the reporters came here today just for Stotts.

…

In the previous Olympic Games, Stotts "led" the Chinese men's basketball team to defeat the American Dream Team, causing the Dream Team to miss the gold medal for the fourth time. Fans in the United States simply hated Stotts, and scolded Stotts on the Internet. The number of people is countless...

In the eyes of these fans, if the shameless Stotts hadn't used the shameless shark-cutting tactic, then the team that would win in the end would definitely be their dream team!

Of course, these fans also recognized the strength of the Chinese men's basketball team. After all, the two teams were tied in the first half, but in the second half, relying on Stotts' shameless tactics, the Dream Team retreated steadily and finally lost the game...

So the biggest culprit for the Dream Team's defeat is Stotts!

National thief Stotts, traitor Stotts, beautiful traitor Stotts...

On the contrary, the Dream Team players and Coach K who originally had to take the blame have been sharing a lot of pressure. Now Stotts has become the culprit...

After playing in the Olympics, Stotts also saw the overwhelming criticism on the Internet. He usually stayed at the training ground and did not dare to show his face...

But today's occasion is different. As the team's head coach, he must be present for such things. The reporters spotted this opportunity and prepared to arrest Stotts today...

…

"Stotts, please help other countries defeat the American Dream Team. Do you feel any guilt in your heart..."

"When you were sleeping in the middle of the night, were you awakened by nightmares, or did you feel uneasy about your conscience..."

"Stotts, do you know that the members of the Dream Team had strong opinions on the tactics you used in the second half of the Olympic finals, especially Anthony? What do you think of this matter..."

Many reporters talked to each other and asked Stotts lively questions...

Stotts' head was now straight. At that time, he was only thinking about the benefits that winning the championship would bring to him, but he didn't expect that such nonsense would happen later.

"Ahem, dear friends from the media, I don't know if you have heard of the saying, sports without borders..."

After winning the Olympic gold medal, Stotts saw the overwhelming criticism on the Internet. He had already thought of his words and now directly stated the "reasons" he had prepared.

"Yes, sports have no borders. When I was the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, my only occupation was to lead the men's basketball team to achieve the best results! Sports is not about victory. Losing a game will not be good for my country. What impact does it have!”

"Furthermore, I just want to use this method to warn those ignorant fans and basketball practitioners that the American team is not invincible. If we don't continue to work hard, sooner or later we will lose our position as the dominant player in the basketball world!"

"Yes, my goal of leading the Chinese team to win the championship is not for my personal honor, nor for a small salary. In fact, I don't take a penny of salary from the Chinese men's basketball team. My real purpose is to inspire the American men's basketball team. The basketball team can continue to improve!"

When Stotts said what he said, the scene was completely silent. Even Li Tuanjie looked at Stotts blankly...

Does Stotts really have such a high level of consciousness? ! If what he said is true, then his sentiment is simply noble. In order to stimulate the progress of American basketball, he does not need a penny of salary. How great this is...

Of course, Li Tuanjie also knew that Stotts was talking nonsense, but the reporters at the critical scene didn't know...

Some people must think that what Stotts said is too pretentious, but some reporters still believe it, so this matter will be easier to handle...

In an instant, some reporters began to admire Stotts. He worked so hard for the development of American basketball...

…

After the press conference ended, there was a lot of discussion on the Internet. The NBA game has not yet started, and Stotts's reputation is extremely popular. No head coach in the league is more controversial than Stotts.

…

Throughout September, the Bucks have been completely busy. In addition to preparing for the new season, they have one more important thing to prepare for.

That’s preparing a G-League team…

What is embarrassing is that the Milwaukee Bucks did not have their own Development League team before, but now the Bucks need a Development League team of their own to hone new players, so it is inevitable to form a Development League team. Something that works!

This matter has received strong support from Ballmer. Although the Development League team itself does not make money, it does not lose money. They also have ticket revenue, and the players' salaries are very cheap, with a maximum of 20,000 US dollars. It’s just the season…

That's right, players in the Development League have extremely low salaries and are divided into Category A and Category B. The most advanced Category A only had a salary of $26,000 in 2016, and the entire team also has a salary cap. Yes, one of their teams' salary cap is less than $210,000...

Of course, for players like Westbrook and Sun Yue who have NBA guaranteed contracts, their salaries are not included in the salary cap!

With such a low salary and ticket income, Ballmer agreed without even thinking about it with a wave of his hand. Even if he lost money, how much could he lose? To be compensated one hundred and eighty thousand US dollars after a season is simply a waste of money...

In the end, the team was named the Milwaukee Bucks. As the talent pool of the parent team, the Bucks, it was very appropriate to call them the Bucks.

Li Tuanjie is quite happy that the Bucks can have their own talent pool, which is extremely beneficial to the future development of the Bucks!

This season, the Bucks' personnel has already exceeded the standard by a lot. Next season's draft will definitely bring in many new players. By then, the role of the subordinate teams will be fully reflected...

…

The busy month of September is over, and the Milwaukee Bucks have been formed extremely smoothly. The players and coaching staff have been assembled, and they are just waiting to start in November!

As for the parent team Bucks, entering October also marks the beginning of the new season!

October 5th will be the Bucks' first preseason game, and their opponent is rather strange. It turns out to be Jiangsu Nangang, a CBA team from China.

Since Stern is now vigorously promoting the NBA around the world, this preseason event may not necessarily be a confrontation between NBA teams, but may also include teams from other professional leagues.

In September, the general manager of Jiangsu Nangang contacted Li Tuanjie and wanted to play a preseason game with the Bucks. Li Tuanjie thought about it and agreed. It was just a preseason game anyway, nothing more. Big deal...

It’s not a big deal for the Bucks, but it’s a huge joy for Jiangsu Nangang!

…

Today is October 4th, the last day of the offseason, and all Bucks generals, including the coaching staff, appeared in the Bucks meeting room.

"Okay, there are too many things that I won't say. In short, guys, please rest assured that I will do my best to help you win the championship! Let your boss say a few words..." Ball As the boss, Mo said something at the beginning and encouraged the players and coaching staff of the team.

In terms of being a team owner, Ballmer is more qualified than Xia Longwen. Last season, Xia Longwen only appeared on the team three or four times...

Li Tuanjie took the microphone handed over by Ballmer and said to the generals with a smile.

"Brothers, tomorrow is the first day of the new season. What is our goal for the new season?"

"Win the championship!" all the generals roared in unison!

"Yes, it is to win the championship, but is it difficult for our current Bucks to win the championship? I don't think so. It is no exaggeration to say that there is absolutely no team in the league that can persist under the hands of our Bucks. Finish the five-game series!”

"So, I not only have the goal of winning the championship, but I also have the goal of each of you growing into an All-Star player!"

"Everyone here, except for the veterans, the newcomers are all hand-picked by me. You have the strongest potential. I firmly believe that the Bucks will be the best stage for your growth!"

"My goal is that every Bucks player can at least play his or her own role in the NBA!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was thunderous applause, and the newcomers were all extremely excited. If others had said such words, the newcomers might not have any feelings at all, and would just think it was just a formality!

But what Li Tuan Tuan said was full of gold. The new people trained by Li Tuan Tuan before also proved what Li Tuan Tuan said just now!

The Bucks will be the best stage for their growth. Every Bucks player will create his own world in the NBA!
