The Godfather of Basketball

With a lineup like the Nets, a backup All-Star with two past All-Stars and a bunch of rookies and players with a minimum salary, they can make it to the Eastern Conference semifinals, and even finish the Black Eight. To be able to play to this level is enough for everyone admired.

Even Barkley was once again convinced by Tang Tian's performance.

They've done enough, good enough.

After the day's training session, Tang Tian said some words of encouragement to the team members, and then let them go back to rest.

He returned to the office by himself, flipped through the tactical manual, and put it down again.

The Nets have done well enough in the last game, and he really can't ask for more from this group of young players.

If the Wizards still maintain such a good state, he can only focus on the free market in the summer.

To be honest, the Suns' first round of this year's draft will be able to select another cornerstone.

Coupled with the disposal of Joe Johnson's contract, the team can get an All-Star star in the free market, and the reconstruction of this team will be much faster than everyone imagined.

By the way, Yao Ming, he suddenly remembered that Yao Ming's contract seems to have expired, and he doesn't know if the latter will continue to play. If he continues to play, he will be combined with MM in the team before retirement. The beginning and the end, this can be regarded as rounding him up The feelings of the previous life.

Just as he was thinking about the summer free agent market, there was a sudden knock on his office door.

"who?"

"Coach, it's me."

To Tang Tian's surprise, it was Jokic who came in.

"You haven't left yet?" Tang Tian put down the documents in his hand and looked at Jokic curiously.

Jokic closed the door, nodded, walked to Tang Tian and sat down.

"What's up?"

"Coach, is there anything we need to improve?" Jokic asked.

Tang Tian glanced at Jokic with some doubts, and then couldn't help but smile. This young man is quite interesting. He didn't go back to rest after training and came here to ask such questions.

"You have been improving, Nikola, and the coaching staff has been helping you improve." Tang Tian said with a smile, any improvement cannot be achieved overnight. So far, Jokic's performance can be said to have far surpassed expected.

"We need to do more. If I can do more, we won't lose the second game, and we won't lose the third game." When Jokic spoke, he kept unconsciously, It can be seen that he is very unconvinced by the two losses.

"Nicola." Tang Tian also put away his smile. He likes Jokic's unyielding temperament, "You have done well enough, but everything will have a process. Really, your performance It has exceeded my expectations a lot.”

"But we can win. We even won the No. 1 Eagles. There is no reason to lose to the Wizards. They are not much better than the Eagles." Jokic was really a little unconvinced.

Tang Tian was stunned for a moment. He wanted to say that the game was not just about strength on paper. He wanted to say that the Wizards had a bloodbath under Pierce's stimulation, but seeing Jokic's expression, he couldn't say it.

"boom!"

At this moment, there was another sound at the door, but unlike before, it was not a knock on the door, but an accidental impact.

"who?"

The door was pushed open by the impact, and standing at the door scratching their heads turned out to be Bogdan Bogdanovic, Bojan Bogdanovic and Pralim.

"You?" Tang Tian looked puzzled.

"We don't want to lose, coach." Jokic said at this time.

It was only at this time that Tang Tian realized that Jokic had been using us when he was talking. He was still a little surprised, but he didn't expect it to be like this, and there were several people standing outside.

It seems that they really want to win.

Tang Tian beckoned them to come in, thought for a while and then picked up the tactical board on the side.

There is not much the Nets can do, at least on the offensive end they have done everything they can.

But the spirit of this group of young players moved him.

"Our offense has done the best. If we want to change, the defense can do better."

Offense and defense are like spears and shields. They are always on opposite sides. Wall and Bill are in good shape and have their own reasons. Even better, it is not impossible to contain their state.

Tang Tian talked about every detail, and Jokic and the others listened carefully.

Although these things cannot really be effective immediately like the system, but if they can be done better, the Nets are more likely to win the game.

By the time he finished speaking, more than an hour had passed before he knew it.

The excitement on Jokic's faces was unconcealable, and it was obvious that they had gained a lot from this.

Looking at the energetic team members, Tang Tian suddenly felt full of confidence.

"You are right, we should win this round of the series and go all out, no matter what the result is, I will grow up with you." Tang Tian finally looked at several young people and said.

Jokic and the others nodded vigorously.

The NBA is a business league. After staying in the league for a long time, many people’s choices will be based on money, but basketball is also a passionate sport, and only those players who have just entered the league or have not played for a long time have the greatest desire for victory .

Growing up together is not empty talk.

This is also the first time he has cultivated young people seriously, and this feeling is something he has never experienced before.

Now, he is also a little bit hot-blooded.

In the training session on the second day, Tang Tian said some encouraging words before the training started, and when the training was over, he pulled the players into the meeting room to analyze the game video and several standard offensive rounds of the Wizards .

His analysis is very detailed, even including the first and second choices after encountering a pick-and-roll, and analyzing all the choices of whoever encounters.

"Defense is what we have to do next, and it's also the key to winning the game. Guys, we should be the winners of this round of the series." Tang Tian said a calm but confident word to the players at the end .

The content of this day allowed the players to see the hope of winning again, and also found what they can do.

Originally, they felt the same as the outside world, and this step was enough, but now, they were extremely eager for the upcoming game.

They have to prove themselves again, the series has only played 3 games, and now they have the confidence to play 7 games!

Fans don't know the Nets' changes, but they obviously don't feel that the Nets are out like the media, and their enthusiasm is greater than ever.

Game 4 of the series continued in Brooklyn, with enthusiasm at the Barclays Center.

The fans in New York are known as some of the worst, but also some of the most passionate.
