The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 381 Second Boss Mark Leslie

This is not the first time for Wang Xiao to visit the Edens family's manor.

Wesley Edens has always shown a very friendly attitude towards Wang Xiao. The team's recent successive losses have not affected this attitude. As a senior fan, Wesley is helpful in running a weak team He must be mentally prepared, and he never thought that Wang Xiao would immediately transform the Bucks into a strong team in the league as soon as he came.

Just kidding? Although Wang Xiao's reputation has risen in recent years, and he has a tendency to be the number one coach in the league, but the head coach is also a human being. As the saying goes, a clever woman can't cook without rice. Strength isn't it?

Today's Bucks are only a little higher than the minimum standard of the league's poor tax. The highest annual salary in the entire team is the $11 million contract of substitute player Adam Sanders and the 8 million annual salary of O.J. Mayo.

Compared with other teams where just one or two cores add up to a salary close to 50 million, this team's savings are incredible.

In this case, can this Bucks rise? Wesley didn't quite believe it.

However, he still trusts Wang Xiao. Wang Xiao once told him that in this season, he will train all these young players in the team to become one of the best players in the league.

The key problem is that it is useless for Wesley to believe it alone.

Although he is the owner of the Bucks, he is not the only owner of the Bucks.

The value of the entire Bucks team at 550 million is still a bit high risk for Wesley, so he chose to cooperate with others to acquire.

Mark Leslie, Wesley's hedge fund partner, bought the Milwaukee Bucks with him.

On the one hand, this relieved Wesley's financial pressure, but on the other hand, it also made the management of the team more complicated. Even if the two had been partners for many years, there would still be differences of opinion.

...

"Wang, I think Oladipo is not a player worth cultivating. His playing style is too bad. He directs blind shots on the court and completely disrupts the team's offensive rhythm. Obviously he is not suitable for the Bucks. team."

For this banquet, Wesley not only invited Wang Xiao, but also Mark. At the dinner table, Mark began to chatter about Bucks player Victor Oladipo.

In fact, when the trade was made in the original draft, Mark didn't like Oladipo very much. On the one hand, he thought that Oladipo was not worth exchanging with the No. 1 pick, even if there was a No. 2 pick as an extra.

On the other hand, Mark actually doesn't like Oladipo's looks.

As the owner of a team, Mark is very clear about the importance of the strength of the team, and at the same time, how important popularity is to the team.

I have to say that Oladi's hair is really ugly, and it is still that kind of characteristic ugliness. It has the charm of the alien Cassel back then, but it is even uglier than Cassel.

How many fans can such a player attract even if he plays well? How much popularity can you gain for the team?

What's more, in the current four regular season games, Oladipo has performed poorly. In the case of averaging 32 minutes per game, he can only score 12 points, and his shooting percentage is less than 40%. One of the culprits of the loss, even shooting guard O.J. Mayo, who came off the bench, performed more brilliantly than him.

In this case, Mark really hopes that Wang Xiao can trade Oladipo, even if he packs and bundles some other players and draft picks, in exchange for an All-Star star.

To train all-star players entirely on their own? Let's not talk about whether it can be successful, even if it can be done, it will be two or three years later.

"Mr. Mark." Wang Xiao put down the tableware unhurriedly, and said with a smile, "We have agreed before that each of us should perform his own duties. It's better for me to handle the players' affairs."

"But the team's results now..." Mark frowned slightly, a little displeased.

The contract signed by Wang Xiao did stipulate that the team management should not interfere with the head coach's selection of rookies and transactions.

But Mark is the owner of the team after all. More importantly, the current record of the Bucks is not good, only 1 win and 3 losses. No. 1 lottery.

"Mark, take it easy. It's not that easy to cultivate a team. You need to be patient." Wesley, who was doing peacemaking at the side, said with a smile: "Look at how many teams there are in the league. A lot of money has been invested to get some so-called stars, but the record has been at the bottom year after year. We must understand the importance of an excellent head coach to the team, and we must have enough patience to wait."

"This season, our goal is very clear, as long as we can return to the playoffs, I believe this goal is not difficult for Wang Xiao."

"I hope so..." Mark's brows loosened slightly, but he still said: "But the team must not continue to lose like this. You all know that the current team is a group of young boys with little experience. The failure will bring great pressure to them, and if they are not careful, it is very likely to cause the collapse of the entire season, and it will be too late even if they want to make up for it."

"Don't worry about this, the team will be able to adjust back soon." Wang Xiao shrugged slightly and responded with a smile: "Soon you will be able to see the team's triumphant progress, please believe in my ability, We also have to believe in the abilities of these Bucks players..."

Four games are nearly a week. Under the double honing of the training module and regular season games, the rookies of the Bucks are adapting and learning at an amazing speed.

These players are already extremely talented players, and none of them have problems with their training attitudes. Many of them are hard-working players, and they insist on extra training for themselves even after daily training.

The hardest among them is undoubtedly Victor Oladipo.

As the saying goes, people should not be judged by their appearance. Although he looks a little fierce, Oladipo is the most diligent of all players.

In the future, when Oladipo becomes famous, some fans will give him a nickname.

"Bitter Mamba".

Everyone knows that "Black Mamba" is Kobe's nickname, and the nickname "Bitter Mamba" was awarded because of the similarities between Oladipo and Kobe.

Oladipo's playing style is not very similar to Kobe, although both of them are very good at hitting iron...the reason for the name "Bitter Mamba" is precisely because Oladipo, like Kobe, is a standard Hard-working players.

The poor performance in the four regular season games almost drove Oladipo crazy, which also made him intensify in daily training.

Wang Xiao's training module provides training bonuses according to time. In the same time period, players with more training will undoubtedly get more.

Oladipo's crazy practice these days is outstanding under the addition of the training module, which also makes this player with very good potential improve rapidly.

Wang Xiao has every reason to believe that Oladipo is about to usher in a round of explosion!
