The Godfather of Basketball

New York is the most prosperous city in the United States, and the medical level here is also at the forefront of the United States. Tang Tang has a viral flu fever, which is a bit similar to what Tang Tian encountered at the beginning, but fortunately, he was sent to the doctor immediately, and there was nothing serious. What will be the aftermath.

Holding Swift in his arms, looking at his daughter lying in the isolation ward, Tang Tian suddenly felt guilty.

Although I comforted myself that he was not a doctor and there were not many places where he could help, but after seeing that I was helpless, my inner feeling was completely different from before.

After all, the one lying inside was his own daughter.

After helping Swift to the hotel to rest first, he went back outside the ward and sat outside for a whole night.

He handed over the team training to Frank first, and he waited until Tang Tang came out of the isolation ward before putting down Xinlai.

Tang Tang returned home completely fine, and Tang Tian also made a decision in his heart.

After holding a meeting with the team's management and coaching staff, he held a press conference immediately after.

"This will be my last season in charge and I will announce my retirement at the end of the season."

Tang Tian made his decision in front of the media.

This idea has actually appeared frequently in the past two years. Taking into account team operations and coaching, he can't spend a lot of time growing up with his children. He has lost a lot of part of being a father.

He was poor in his previous life, but now he is rich and still like this is obviously not what he wants.

Tang Tang's high fever this time made him make up his mind even more.

The reporters below were in an uproar, they never expected Tang Tian to make such a decision.

For a while, various questions emerged one after another.

Tang Tian didn't hide anything, and summed it up in one sentence: "Basketball coaching doesn't have too many challenges for me. If there is any, it is the championship this season. For me, family is already more challenging than basketball. The net is more important."

"Will you sell the Nets and leave the NBA?" A reporter asked.

"No, I just won't be coaching for a while, but I will still own and manage the team."

Tang Tian's answer made the reporters below breathe a sigh of relief.

"For the time being? When you say for the time being, does that mean that there is still a possibility of coaching in the future?" A reporter asked grabbing the words.

"Maybe, those things are still too far away. My current consideration is that I will retire after this season."

The press conference did not last long, but the impact on the fans after the end was enormous.

If Popovich is the living fossil of the league, then Tang Tian represents the present and future of the league, but now he is about to retire.

This is only 31 years old!

Many coaches are still playing in the NCAA and even college leagues at this age, and talented ones are still doing jobs like video analysts.

But after Tang Tang's high fever broke out one after another, the fans understood that family is more important than everything, and Tang Tian didn't say anything at the press conference. When his children grew up, four or five Tang Tian, ​​who came out to coach when he was ten years old, was not at all old among the coaches.

The players of the Nets knew the news and did not appear depressed, and even their motivation to compete for the championship was stronger than before.

You must know that everyone in this team was recruited and trained by Tang Tian. Tang Tian said that this is his last season, and they will naturally work hard to make this season have a good result.

After the Christmas game, George ushered in a comeback, and the Nets also restarted their winning streak. They have not lost a game for nearly a month. This is the rhythm of 70 wins.

The time came to the end of January unknowingly, and at this time, the league announced the voting results for the 2019 Charlotte All-Star Game.

James became the All-Star vote king.

In the starting lineup, Irving and Butler are in the Eastern backcourt.

There is no suspense about Irving's selection. His average performance of 23.2 points, 3.7 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game is one of the absolute cores of the league's No. 1 Nets team.

Butler left a deep impression through George's absence, coupled with DeRozan's lack of shooting guards in the Western Conference, he was successfully selected as the starter in the backcourt.

In the frontcourt, George of the Nets, James of the 76ers, and Antetokounmpo of the Bucks became the starters.

Following last year's 4 All-Star selections, the Nets went one step further this year, with 3 selected starters.

In addition, Jokic was also selected as a substitute, and the number of Nets selected this year is the same as last year.

In addition, Simmons and Embiid of the 76ers were selected as substitutes, and Hayward and Tatum of the Celtics were also included as substitutes.

The backcourt starters in the West are the same as last year, still Curry and Harden. The only thing that has changed is the frontcourt. In addition to Durant and Anthony Davis who have been selected consecutively, there is also Dero of the Spurs. Thumbs up.

In addition, Green and Thompson of the Warriors are still selected as substitutes, and Aldridge of the Spurs is also on the bench.

The three most competitive teams in the East and West have multiple people selected, which also shows that this year's playoffs are highly competitive, which is a significant improvement over the past two seasons.

The time has entered February, and the All-Star Game is just around the corner, but before that, the league has ushered in an important time node.

After the reforms announced last year, this year's trade deadline will be February 9, a week before the All-Star break.

Accompanied by this phenomenon, various rumors also began to fly in the sky in advance.

The 76ers continue to look for shooters in the trading market, while the Spurs are actively promoting the return of Parker to San Antonio. The Celtics have targeted Walker of the Hornets for backcourt reinforcement. Sai seeks a trade for a backup small forward.

Although it seems that there is not much room for the teams to strengthen this year, there are a lot of rumors in the free agent market.

The Nets have a neat lineup and are running in very well. In theory, they will not make much movement on this deadline.

Time flies, and there is less than one day left before the transaction deadline, and some transactions have begun to be concluded one after another.

The Sixers traded away their summer extensions Amir Johnson and Ilyasova for JJ Redick and a future second-round pick from the Magic.

This move will allow them to pay more than 20 million in luxury taxes, but the 76ers have a lot of hope of winning this year, and the money must obviously be spent.

The Spurs sent Forbes and Derek White, and traded Tony Parker back from the Hornets. After a summer of dissatisfaction, the old sports car returned to San Antonio to hit the championship.

The Hornets had a poor record and missed the playoffs. In addition, the team had Batum's big garbage contract and was forced to enter reconstruction. They sent Walker and exchanged Terry Rozier and a high-quality contract from the Celtics. cloud.
