After Wang Yi hung up the phone, he continued to discuss many issues with them.
The next thing is between Wang Yi and the coach.
Coach Luke Walton was once an assistant coach for the Warriors.
In the Warriors' 73-win season, he created the dream start of 27 consecutive victories.
Many people disapprove of his coaching level, thinking that he can only play full-level numbers.
As far as the Warriors' lineup was concerned, even Shaq's grandma led the team to win 27 consecutive victories.
After that, Luke failed to achieve any results during his professional coaching period with the Lakers and Kings.
Wang Yi declined to comment on the level of the coach.
And as a new player, he can't dictate to the team's coaching candidates.
What he can do is to cooperate with Walton to improve the record of the Kings.
Wharton always wore a sharp suit and shiny shoes, and his hair was polished.
He said to Wang Yi: "Your arrival this year has boosted our confidence a lot, so our goal this year is to reach the playoffs."
Wang Yi is a little speechless. Which year is your goal not to playoffs?
But which year did you get in?
Of course, now that he's here, the playoffs won't be easy.
He smiled and said, "Just the playoffs?"
Walton glanced at the boss and general manager: "Isn't the playoffs enough?"
The Kings are all young players, and now Wang Yi is also a young player. Without a strong and experienced veteran to lead, the young team will definitely make a lot of mistakes.
So it's not easy to make it to the playoffs.
Isn't this goal enough?
Kings boss Ranadive smiled for Wang Yi: "Then what do you think our goal should be?"
Wang Yi said: "At least you can't touch the floor of the Western Conference Finals?"
When the three heard this, they all looked at each other in blank dismay.
This goal is a bit too high.
Is the floor of the Western Conference finals so easy to touch?
It took the old cannon Paul more than ten years to touch the floor of the Western Conference Finals.
Are his teammates weak?
Now the players of the Kings, except for Wang Yi, can only be regarded as the lowest-ranking stars.
How long has it been since the Kings touched the floor of the Western Conference Finals.
The last time was a few years ago.
It's been too long and they almost forgot.
And now there are powerful Clippers in the West, the Lakers Nuggets Suns, and the super-powerful Warriors.
It is very difficult to advance to the second round, let alone touch the floor of the Western Conference Finals.
But since Wang Yi has already said so, as bosses, general managers and coaches, they can't be too stretched.
"Wang, with your words, our goal is the Western Conference Finals!"
The Kings boss seemed thrilled.
Of course, his excitement was more for showing Wang Yi, after all, he couldn't let Wang Yi down.
In fact, deep down in his heart, he still felt that the Kings' ability to enter the playoffs was already remarkable.
Then Walton said: "Fox was the boss of this team before. Now he is gone, and the kings have no leader. Wang, although you are here, you are new here. The team is basically young players. Everyone of them No one is convinced, so if we want to integrate this team, there must be a boss who stands up."
"You are the best candidate for the boss of this team, and if you want to be the boss, you must be able to convince the crowd. So from the moment you sign the contract, you have to have a good relationship with them."
Wang Yi nodded: "I understand."
Suddenly, he felt that the burden on his shoulders was much heavier.
Before the Lakers, James carried it in front.
Harmonize the atmosphere in the team, resolve conflicts between players, and improve the relationship between players...
That big mess is done by James with thick eyebrows.
Wang Yi is only responsible for charging forward on the field.
Now that he is suddenly in charge of the relationship between the entire team, he is really a bit of a tiger and can't get his claws.
After all, he'd never done it before.
But he has one characteristic, that is, he likes challenges.
Only in this way can he be more passionate and interesting to him.
That night, the four of them talked all the time until very late.
At around 9:[-] the next morning, after Sister Luo flew over, she carefully considered the contract.
It was determined that there was nothing wrong with the contract, and by about 5 pm, they signed the contract with general manager Divac.
After signing the contract, the salary will not be received immediately.
After all, the season hasn't started yet, and you haven't played a game, so what salary do you get?
However, the team considered that Wang Yi had just arrived and had a lot of things to do, so they paid him $500 million in advance.
With this 500 million US dollars, Wang Yi can at least buy a house in good condition, not to mention buying a villa.
But right now he doesn't plan to spend the money on a house.
Anyway, a team rented a house for him.
He moved into the new house that afternoon.
