The Godfather of Basketball

By the way, isn't that Cao Cao's cooking and cooking hero?

I didn't feel it at first, but as Popovich responded one by one.

If there's another thunder outside, it's almost!

"You're the first person I've ever met to qualify as a coach."

There was no thunder outside, but Popovich's words made Tang Tian almost drop his glass.

It's not "the heroes in the world, but the king and the ears", the first meaning is that the old man doesn't even think he can be counted.

"I don't quite understand." Tang Tian said, putting down his glass.

"A head coach can see the opponent's strategy on the court, and then find out the tactics to deal with. This is the tactical execution. A head coach can handle the relationship between the stars and allow each team member to exert the maximum ability. This is the communicative ability; a head coach can train the youngest players most effectively and efficiently, this is the ability to cultivate. A head coach, with these capabilities, can be considered a real coach, so you are what I see The first. "

Popovich said in a speech, Tang Tian was speechless, but also blushed.

Half of this is due to the system's credit, but it's truly unprecedented to be able to get this kind of evaluation from an old man.

"So, are you interested in coaching the Spurs next season?"

However, Popovich's next sentence almost made Tang Tian blink.

I believe in your evil!

"I'm a bit tired, especially after this year's playoffs. I feel that it's almost time to retire." Popovich said heavily, and could feel that this was his heartfelt words.

It seems to be eliminated by the Rockets 4 to 1, which is a big blow to him.

Take over from Popovich to coach Spurs?

This sounds like a very good choice. Although Duncan looks old, Tang Tian knew that the "Shi Buddha" had retired at the age of 38.

And he can still have the chance to coach Leonard. If he chooses some reliable role players, the dynasty may be faster than the Rockets.

"Also, I heard about you and Morey, and I understand that as a great head coach, you need to have absolute say in the team."

Popovich said, staring straight at Tang Tian.

"So I can try to find Pete and have him appoint you as the team's general manager and head coach at the same time."

As soon as Tang Tian's pupils were closed, if he was only slightly interested before, then Popovich said that it would make him full of interest.

"Although this kind of thing is very rare, it is not without it in history. Mike Thalves of the Timberwolves in 4 years, Thomas of New York in 7 years, and Pete also approached me before and asked me if I would be interested in part-time, so I think this should not happen. It's a big problem, "Popovich continued.

Tang Tian was really excited.

The reason why he wants to leave the Rockets is not to have a say in the management of the team.

"I will think about it, but this will be after the end of the season." Tang Tian said.

Although it is exciting, there are too many uncertainties and possibilities in the future, and he is now leading the team to impact the championship. From a professional point of view, it is not suitable to talk about these. Unexpected.

"Yes, I know." Popovich smiled, picked up the wine glass, and tilted to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian picked up the wine glass, touched Popovich, and then drank it.

After talking about the business, the two talked about some fun and laughed. I have to say that the old man is still very humorous.

Tang Tian was finally returned to Houston by Popovich's son-in-law, because he was drunken by the old man unknowingly.

The next day, the sixth game between the Lakers and the Nuggets has just ended.

121 to 112, the Lakers beat their opponents by 9 points, and advanced to the Western Conference finals with a big score of 4-2.

In this way, the finals of the East and West finals also came out.

The West is still Rockets vs. Lakers. This is the second consecutive year the two teams have met in the West.

The Eastern Conference was somewhat unexpected. The Cavaliers, which had a better record in the regular season, faced the Magic. They were eventually eliminated by the opponent 2 to 4. After James was swept by the Rockets two years ago, the record was better year by year, but it has been 2 consecutive years. Did not make it to the finals.

However, for the Magic, killing the Cavaliers is only the first step, and the final game against the Celtics is a greater test.

The Rockets Lakers game ended earlier, and the finals also started early.

On May 16, the Lakers flew to Houston in less than a day from the start of the Western Conference, preparing for the opening game of the Western Conference.

Kobe, McGrady, Yao Ming, Gasol, plus Billups, Artest, Odom, Bynum. Although the opponents of this year's final have not changed, the starlight will shine, and the old opponents will Tang Tian and Phil Jackson, the attention is rising.

And this is the second consecutive year that the two sides have fought. It is the Lakers' revenge for the Rockets, revenge on the arrow, or the Rockets eliminated the Lakers, and stepped on the old dynasty team to complete the new dynasty, no matter which script is full of highlights.

The intense attention can be seen from the number of reporters on the sidelines during pre-match training.

Standing in a large row, there were 20 or 30 people who said less.

This is definitely the first time since this year's playoffs.

The Lakers' training has just ended here, and reporters have already swarmed up.

Jackson and Kobe were chatting, but the two of them were blocked by reporters.

"Phil, are there any special tactics to prepare for tomorrow's game?" The leading reporter asked questions first.

"No," Jackson said with a smile.

"You don't need to prepare any special tactics against the Rockets." He added, seeing the reporter's confused eyes.

"But the Rockets have hired Artest this season and made them stronger on the bench. Do you have any countermeasures?" The reporter asked.

"We have Lamar ~ www.readwn.com ~ You should ask Don this question, this is a question he should have a headache." Jackson is still proud and pretentious.

"Kobe, at the end of last year's playoffs, you said you would make a comeback, are you ready now?" Maybe there was something unbearable in Jackson's words, and the reporter turned to target Kobe.

Bryant did not answer, but glanced at the reporter coldly, as if he was asking a nonsense.

"The Rockets traded with Artest, and with old rival Shane Battier, they will still use wheel tactics against you. Do you want to deal with it?" The reporters on the side are obviously smarter, taking advantage of these The gap, asked first.

"This year, I am even stronger." Kobe did not answer positively, but gave a very positive answer.
