Chapter 48 The First Three Points

On October 26, 2009, there was only one day before the start of the new season.

After the training camp, the Warriors were full of fighting spirit and were full of expectations for the new season.

At 6 pm, Deng Fang, who had finished training, returned to the office, and Kehan ​​pushed the door and walked in.

"Deng Fang, I heard that you have done a good job. Congratulations." Kehan ​​said with a smile.

At first, Kohan did not take Deng Fang seriously. He just wanted to give Upton a face and let Deng Fang play for a while. After the opening game, the two sides broke up friendly.

Unexpectedly, good news kept coming from General Manager Tim, which surprised Kohan a little.

Of course, Kohan will definitely be happy with the team's improvement.

However, at the beginning of each season, everyone is full of hope for the team's future, and most of it is good news.

As a bottom-sized team, they can win at least one lottery show almost every year. If this lottery show is not full of talent, if the team is not optimistic about him, how could they choose him?

Moreover, each bottom team will make some trades during the offseason.

If you don’t think the team will be better after the transaction, how can the transaction be reached?

In short, no matter how bad it is, every team is full of hope before the start of the new season, and there is not a lot of good news.

Therefore, although there are constant good news, Kehan ​​is still not optimistic about Deng Fang's coaching prospects.

Kohan's idea is normal.

The NBA head coach is a job with a very professional and very intense work.

Many famous coaches who have coached in the NBA for decades have been fired.

The first thing that comes to mind is to fire the head coach.

Many assistant coaches have been in the NBA for life, but they can't be the head coach.

A novice like Deng Fang has never even played professional basketball. It is almost impossible to succeed as a head coach as soon as he starts.

Unless a miracle happens.

What Kehan ​​didn't know was that a miracle really happened to Deng Fang...

So this is not the fault of Kehan.

Kehan ​​thinks that the good news about the team is mainly because of Deng Fang's magical ability to cure diseases.

So today he came to find Deng Fang specifically.

Deng Fang nodded to Kehan's praise and said in a very Western way: "Thank you!"

Kehan ​​smiled and said, "Mr. Deng, I came here to talk to you about the contract."

Deng Fang was a little surprised and made a listening statement.

“Based on your performance, I think it’s necessary for us to sign a new contract,” Kohan said. “I think you’re more suitable for being a team doctor, so I think the previous contract will be invalidated and then sign a new contract.”

Seeing Deng Fang frowned, Kehan ​​hurriedly said, "Don't worry, the annual salary is at least three times that of the previous team doctor! Three million a year! You can ask for any other requirements."

Deng Fang understood that Kehan ​​still didn't believe in his ability to lead the team.

But he was afraid that he would lose the opening game and be poached by other teams.

People like Deng Fang who have magical curing abilities are priceless for every NBA team!

Imagine that I will no longer worry about the players of my team being injured, and that I will no longer worry about the players' injuries during the draft. How exciting the scene is!

So Kehan ​​came here early just to keep Deng Fang.

Deng Fang smiled and said, "No, Mr. Kehan, I am very confident in my coaching ability. We will not lose in the opening game, and the team's record will not be less than 50%.

Kehan ​​frowned: "Mr. Deng, I know you are very confident, but it is not easy to be a head coach in the NBA. Although the annual salary is higher, it is very unstable. Unlike the team doctor, although the money is less, there is no risk. You can continue to do it."

Deng Fang shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I just want to be the head coach, and I want to lead the Warriors to the championship myself."

Kehan ​​shrugged with regret: "Okay, I appreciate your attitude very much. I also hope you can succeed, but please remember that once the team is frustrated and cannot become the head coach, the team still welcomes you to stay. We can sit down and talk about specific conditions."

Deng Fang nodded and said, "Thank you!"

Kehan ​​shook hands with Deng Fang and left the house with regret.

...

On October 27, the NBA 09-10 season began.

There are four opening matches in total, all of which are the highlights.

The first game was a preview of the Eastern Finals, with the Celtics vs. the Cavaliers.

Garnett missed the entire playoffs due to injury last season. After recuperation, the Celtics finally welcomed a healthy Garnett this season.

After a fierce battle, the Celtics finally defeated the Cavaliers 95:89 and achieved a good start to the season.

The young emperor James scored 38 points with 12 of 22 shots, but he was unable to beat four hands with both fists, and he eventually lost the game regretfully.

The second game is the Wizards led by General Arenas against the Mavericks led by Nowitzki.

In the end, the Wizards defeated the Mavericks at 102:91.

The third game was a match between the two Los Angeles. In the end, the Lakers won the Clippers at 99:92.

The last game was the battle between the two teams in the first round of last season. The Trail Blazers finally defeated the Rockets 96:87, avenging the elimination of last season's playoffs.

As a bottom team, the Warriors did not play on the first day.

The Warriors will face the Rockets' challenge at home the next day.

Deng Fang led the coaching team to watch the video and analyze it one by one, and then asked the assistant coach to assign tasks to each player.

Each team has its own defensive system and defensive strategy, but when facing different opponents, they still need to make some fine adjustments.

Of course, this job is very troublesome and cumbersome, and many coaches are directly dumped to the assistant coach.

Deng Fangze is different. On the one hand, as a senior fan, he is very familiar with these players and does not need to put too much effort into it.

On the other hand, he is also interested in doing these things - he wanted to watch it if he didn't pay it before, but now he is so happy to pay it for the football!

After the arrangement is completed, it is targeted training.

After the training, a large number of reporters gathered around.

Due to Deng Fang's amazing remarks during this period and the frequent trading actions of the Warriors team, many reporters are very interested in Deng Fang.

The reporters really like such a well-informed head coach!

Generally speaking, no matter whether they are old enemies or not, whether their opponents are really strong, as usual, both head coaches have to breastfeed each other during interviews before the game.

If the opponent is really strong, then it is obvious that "the opponent's strength is top-level in the league", "the opponent is the most powerful team to compete for the championship."

If the opponent's strength is average, then you can change your skills - "The opponent's offensive firepower is very good", "The opponent's defense is very good".

Even if the opponent is at the bottom of the league, he still needs to be gentle - "Although the opponent has been playing a bit difficult recently, their lineup should not be underestimated", "the opponent plays very dynamically."

The reporters' ears were so calloused that they heard these soups!

Too boring!

Look at Deng Fangduo!

People don't care about this at all!

"The Warriors have changed a lot this summer. Now most of the teams are new players, and many are first and second grade rookies. In this case, what is the winning rate against the Rockets tomorrow?"

"Tenths! We can't lose!"

"Why are you so confident?"

"Because the Rockets are so much worse than ours, there is no suspense!"

"With so confident, how many points do you think you can win?"

"Start at 30 points!"

"What are your expectations for Curry's performance tomorrow?"

"Based on his contacts during this period, I think Curry is a very low-key player. As his first NBA game, Curry should not do his best, and the data should not be too eye-catching. At most, he would break the first record of a rookie..."

"I heard that you are very encouraged to organize the guard to shoot three-pointers, which is different from the philosophy of many coaches. So how many three-pointers do you think Curry will take tomorrow?"

"The more you have, the better! It would be a nasty crime to not allow Curry to shoot three points!"

"What about data?"

"Start twenty times!"
