The 25-game winning streak was ended, but the Pelicans were not too frustrated.
After all, they are missing Davis, and the Celtics played really well in this game.
之后 After the game, the players on both sides perform the final handshake.
Tang Tian shook hands one by one. When it was his turn and Stevens' turn, in addition to shaking hands, he also hugged each other.
As a former godfather, Stevens's coaching of this game made Tang Tian care more than the performance of the Celtics.
He is like seeing a young version of Popovich. In addition to his experience may be a little bit worse, his understanding and response to the game is really beyond imagination.
For even a moment, he felt that Stevens came through just like himself.
This is not an exaggeration. You know that the Celtics brought in young Stevens.
But Stevens' performance is really impressive. This is the second season and he has shown extraordinary coaching ability.
Now they are ranked seventh in the East and will probably be in the playoffs!
场景 This scene is rare in history.
"Do you have the time?"
When Tian Hu hugged, Tang Tian could not help asking more.
Although he is no longer a coach, he still has some original instincts for a good coach.
A little elegant is called high mountains and flowing water.
"what?"
Stevens did not expect Tang Tian to ask this suddenly.
"We can have some coffee, just ordinary communication between players and coaches."
Tang Tian also came up with that sentence for no apparent reason, but the words had already been spoken, and he continued to explain.
Stevens nodded after listening.
He agreed.
Tang Tian did not expect that he would agree so simply, but maybe it has something to do with him.
Although his status in the league is not as good as James, he is also faster than Durant. It is unlikely that such a player will be rejected.
After attending the press conference, Tang Tian walked to the door of the stadium and saw that Stevens was already waiting for him there.
The two said hello, and then went to a nearby cafe.
"How did you know that I would choose to pass the last attack of the regular season?"
Tang Tian asked the last attack of the regular season.
The tactic of that attack was suggested to Williams, but was successfully predicted by Stevens, which resulted in Smart's fatal steal.
"My guess."
Stevens smiled and said.
"Guess?"
Tong Tangtian was surprised by this answer.
"Yes, from the perspective of general coaches, there is a high probability that the last attack will be delivered to the core of the team, but I researched some of your game videos this season before the game. And do it. "
Stevens said it was guessing, but from the pre-match video mentioned in his discourse, it should be more than guessing.
"Aren't you afraid we will give the ball to me in the end?"
Tang Tian asked back.
所以 "So I said I guessed."
Stevens spoke back.
Tangtian and him looked at each other, then they both laughed tacitly.
As a coach, the tactical layout on the basketball court, especially the key ball, was originally a bet.
The way to make the stakes bigger is to do more pre-match preparations as Stevens did.
Look at the coaching habits of the opposing coach, look at the personality of the opposing player, and so on.
While Stevens was only in the second year of coaching in the NBA, but after a few words, he was really strong, not by luck.
Speaking of Stevens, although he is still an NBA rookie, his coaching in NAA is open-ended.
He has been the head coach of Butler University of Civilian University since 2007. He left the company in 203, and his winning percentage in 5 years reached 77.2%.
Also led the team to the NAA mid-finals twice in 200 and 20 years.
Jain is also the only two times in the history of Butler University to reach the finals.
因此 He also became the youngest head coach who led the team to the NAA semi-finals since Bob Knight in 973, and the youngest head coach who led the team to the finals since 940.
Yes, Tang Tian and Stevens didn't know each other before, but they haven't seen each other.
In the NAA finals of 20 years, the university's opponent was Butler University, and Butler University's head coach was Stevens.
Twenty-three years ago, the two had a quick glance. At this time, sitting in a coffee shop and chatting, and still being rivals, the feeling was actually very subtle.
The two then talked a lot, most of them were tactical and basketball understanding.
Chatting and chatting, Tang Tian's favor for Stevens multiplied because he found that Stevens was a coach outside Popovich who could really talk to him.
And Stevens looks humble and gentle, much better than Popovich's bad old man.
Stevens also likes Tang Tian a lot. Among the players he coaches, the most proud is Gordon Hayward.
后者 The latter is known as a ball dealer.
This also illustrates the player style he likes.
Tang Tian's understanding of tactics and basketball, the kind of high-ball quotient displayed is really rare.
The first time the two people chatted, it was really a result of mutual appreciation.
"Last question, do you read novels?"
At the end of the chat, Tang Tian didn't hold back and asked Stevens.
小说 "Novel? Yes, I have seen some, Harry Potter, Half-Blood Elf ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Yes, I have seen some."
Judging from this answer by Stevens, he shouldn't see much.
"Do you know what crossing is?"
Tang Tian then asked.
"One person dies, and then the soul crosses over another person?"
Stevens said tentatively that although he didn't read much of his novel, he knew how to cross the word.
穿越 After all, crossing is not the exclusive name of the novel, it is also included in the film and television drama.
"Yes, are you crossing?"
Tangtian looked at Stevens and asked.
Stevens froze a moment, then laughed immediately.
"I wish I could be that kind of person, that would make a lot of things simple."
Stevens said with a little hope after laughing.
Tang Tian saw this reaction from him, knowing that he must not pass through.
However, it is impossible to pass through in the first place. How can there be so many people in this world?
He has brought such a big butterfly effect to one person, and another world has to be completely chaotic.
He rejected those unrealistic thoughts, and finally looked at Stevens.
好 "Well, then we hope that one day we can reach the finals together."
The last one, Tang Tian said.
知道 He knows that the Celtics led by Stevens have not reached the finals in history, but his crossing has changed a lot of history.
The Pelicans have a chance to make the siege in the Western Conference. The Celtics are not impossible.
历史 When history changes, the future is always full of unknowns, isn't it?
