Build a Dream Dynasty

On February 2, the Nets faced the Bucks from afar at home. Imitate the team building ideas of the Nets, but the uniform team is far from Jiang Mingliang's understanding of people, and the head coach does not have Stevens' strategizing. The development of the Bucks this season is really struggling. They have been in the ninth and tenth positions in the Eastern Conference for a long time, but they are always a little short of the Pacers and 76ers who are on the edge of the playoffs! The biggest difference between the two sides is still the wing position. Only George, Leonard, and Fernandez scored 58 points together, which shows that the Bucks were almost eaten alive in the duel at this position! After the former No. 1 pick Lang Bogut suffered a serious elbow injury, his offensive ability declined greatly, which also made the Nets' inside defense a lot easier. Waiting for the main players to fight for the rest time and save energy.

Jeremy Lin, who got a lot of playing time, shined in this game, scoring the most beautiful stats of his career at 17+7. At present, it seems that, except for some special circumstances, Jeremy Lin has basically occupied the position of the team's second point guard, and Livingston needs to compete with Korver for playing time on the wing position.

Of course, for the veteran Livingston who has just returned from injury, this is also a kind of protection. For this veteran, ensuring a healthy physical condition is easier to get the next contract than playing better data. Of course, Jiang Mingliang intended to keep this veteran with a basic salary.

Camby played 17 minutes in this game and scored 5 points and 6 rebounds. Under the current salary policy, a center who averages 20 minutes per game and contributes only 5+6 can be called rubbish contract. Although the two-game argument is not advisable, it seems that this is also a less successful transaction when Jiang Mingliang took over the Nets.

Fortunately, in any case, this is a deal that is beneficial to the team, and it will not cost Jiang Mingliang too much money (the Nets themselves have not reached the poor line), nor will it affect the future operations of the Nets .

With an easy victory, the Nets ushered in the New York Derby, visiting Madison Garden for the second time this season, challenging the New York Knicks. However, in the second round of the New York Derby this season, there were much fewer cards than in the first round. Not only was Stoudemire and David West missing on the court, but even off the court, Spike Lee was the only one left to dance solo in the first round of the stars. Even Jiang Mingliang, who never missed the New York Derby, did not show up.

He stayed in East Rutherford to entertain VIPs from Spain!

De Blas, one of the most powerful assistants around Florentino, the deputy head of the Spanish Real Madrid club, his position in the club happened to be in charge of the club's basketball team. But it is well known that, compared to the bright stars of football teams, basketball is in Europe. . . . . . It's really okay, Spain has a relatively good basketball atmosphere. Therefore, for Debras, the management of the basketball team is really a part-time job. When it comes to the operation of the team, he only cares about the position and doesn't care much about the actual effect.

However, he still takes it to heart when it comes to the signing of the Spanish national player Fernandez. After all, the contract signed by the two parties is 25 million euros for five years, and this salary can be regarded as the salary of an important rotation player in a football team. During this period of time, Fernandez was not so firm about returning to Spain next season. Having been reused by the Nets, he had already discussed with Coach Stevens about his position in the team. After getting a satisfactory answer, he has entrusted His agent negotiated with Real Madrid to see if he could postpone the performance of the contract, which also attracted the attention of De Brass, and even reached the Real Madrid chairman Florentino. What Florentino thinks about this is unknown to others. Anyway, after a short high-level meeting, Debras came to East Rutherford in person to meet with Jiang Mingliang and Will Craig.

Early in the morning, Debras came to Jiang Mingliang's office with the reception staff of the Nets.

Jiang Mingliang greeted him with a smile and shook hands with Debras enthusiastically: "Mr. Debras, although we are engaged in different projects, the name of Real Madrid is well known even in the United States. It is a great honor for you to come here Come and visit!"

Worldwide, Real Madrid's lineup is not comparable to the Nets. Football is the undisputed number one sport in the world, and Real Madrid is the undisputed king of football clubs, especially Spanish-speaking players, almost all of whom are proud to play for Real Madrid and Barcelona. In the NBA, even the Lakers are nothing compared to Real Madrid.

After everyone was seated, the topic was opened. The initial topic was naturally Fernandez's contract issue, but the discussion continued, led by Jiang Mingliang, and the topic of in-depth exchanges between the two parties turned to the issue of cross-border cooperation between the two clubs.

In recent years, the king of world football is of course the dream team Barcelona led by Lionel Messi. After Fen VI, the La Masia youth training camp that Barcelona has persisted in for many years has blossomed and borne fruit. A large number of talents have poured out, casting an incredible The dynasty of I, Barcelona has dominated Europe with 13 titles over the past three seasons. In the context of Barcelona's rule, it was Real Madrid's huge investment but was unable to shake the history of blood and tears of the Barcelona dynasty.

In terms of commercial development, another team is also firmly suppressing Real Madrid. Manchester United, as the top brand of English-speaking football clubs, has a unique advantage in commercial development. It can even be said that as of now, Manchester United is the only football club that has opened up the US market. Including Real Madrid, Barcelona is still in the stage of making a fuss about its superstars, and Manchester United already has quite a few diehards in the United States. To put it another way, in an analogy to China, the two Real Madrid teams are equal to Kobe and James' home team, while Manchester United is approaching the Rockets' dominance.

"What made Manchester United so successful in the American market? First of all, the United States and the United Kingdom have the same language and the same race. For a long time, the United States only had the Premier League and the World Cup for European football. Of course, this situation no longer exists. The second is the cooperation between Manchester United and Nike. After all, the United States is the base camp of Nike. Here, other brands can’t beat Nike’s influence. And then, Beckham, he has a terrifying popularity. These are future generations of sports managers The various results of the analysis, but I grew up in the United States and in New York. I have experienced that era and the process of Manchester United's popularity growing from scratch. This is also my topic when I graduated from Harvard Business School. "Manchester United and Manchester United New York Yankees Collaboration". You can take a look."

Jiang Mingliang had already prepared a copy of his previous thesis and handed it to Debras.
