Chapter 69 Father's Resignation Application
Davidson remembers that his father once told him.
Among all the active players in this league, the only player who can be called a standard center template is Orangutan Ewing.
The four centers are all very strong, but there is always a difference in strength. In the eyes of many fans, Ewing is the weakest one. If Ewing really wants to talk about it, he may not be stronger than Mooning.
But why is he said to be a standard center template?
The explanation given by my father was that Olajuwon's technology was not able to learn other centers. Even if he could learn some superficiality, he could not learn the essence, so he naturally could not be called a standard template.
O'Neal is a physical talent, and other centers do not have his domineering physical talent, so he is not a standard template.
As for Admiral David Robinson, Dad's original words are...
"He is not a center forward at all, a power forward wearing a center forward cloak."
From this perspective, Ewing is the most standard center.
As Mo Ning's senior brother, Ewing helped Mo Ning a lot in the early stages of Mo Ning's career, which made Mo Ning's strength improve by leaps and bounds.
...
What surprised Davidson was that in g5, the Nets actually won again. Coleman broke out in this game, scoring 32 points and 17 rebounds...
The Nets directly led the second-place Knicks in the Eastern Conference with a big score of 3:2.
This season, the Nets are not lucky and the No. 2 position has not been strengthened. Otherwise, judging from the current situation, the Nets may be able to eliminate the Knicks in five games.
In the next g6, Ewing finally broke out. In this game, Ewing's mid-range shooting percentage was quite high, leading the team to save the team from the edge of the cliff.
However, in the crucial tiebreak battle, Ewing failed to continue his performance in G6, and the Nets directly took the Knicks away in one wave.
This round of series proves with facts that Pat Riley's coaching ability is really inferior to his father.
Although Pat Riley persisted until the tiebreak, this was still the case when the Nets were short of major generals. If the Nets had a complete lineup, even if the Knicks were not swept, they would probably have to last five games.
The Nets made it to the Eastern Conference Finals, which is undoubtedly a great news for Nets fans.
Since winning the championship in 1976, the Nets have never achieved such a result in the playoffs.
Dad became a hero in New Jersey. Under his leadership, the Nets broke into the Eastern Conference from a bottom team in just two years, which was not an exaggeration to say that it was a miracle.
But if you want to talk about miracles, this year's Pacers may look even more magical.
They scored fifth in the Eastern Conference and were all the way below. They defeated the Eagles, the No. 1 in the Eastern Conference semi-finals and entered the Eastern Conference finals.
Reggi Miller's regular season data is actually not particularly good. He averaged less than 20 points per game, but as soon as the playoffs came, various outbreaks immediately...
After reaching the Eastern Conference Finals, Reggie Miller still performed well, and eliminated the Nets with a big score of 4:2 and advanced to the finals.
Although the Nets were eliminated, they achieved their best record in nearly 20 years, and the fans were extremely satisfied.
...
Inside Willis Reed's office.
"What? Chuck, don't joke with me."
"I still look forward to you leading the Nets to win the championship next season!" Willis Reed looked at Dad Chuck with a look of horror.
"Willis, you know I'm not a joker, this is really what I think now," Dad said with a faint smile.
"No, Chuck, I won't agree to your resignation application. We have finally improved a little now, and we are just a reliable second-place player in the lineup."
"Believe me, I will definitely get you a decent point guard this offseason, and I will definitely win the championship this season!"
Willis Reed was almost scared and paralyzed when he heard that Mr. Chuck's father had applied for resignation.
What a joke? I finally made it to the Eastern Conference Finals. At this critical moment, my father actually wanted to resign?!
If my father leaves, where can I find a head coach with a coaching ability of my father?!
Once the father leaves, they may be beaten into a prototype next season and become the bottom of the Eastern Conference.
By then, Willis Reed's own life will definitely not be easy.
"Chuck, we're always in love, don't scare me in this matter."
"Why did you think of resigning?" Willis Reed asked in wonder.
My father waved his hand, "Actually, I have had this idea for a long time. Pitlovic's death had deeply touched me. I am not young now, so I should spend more time with my family."
Willis Reed nodded, but even so, he could not accept his father's departure. This was definitely a devastating blow to the Nets.
"Chuke, let's go for another year, at least, we will have a very high chance of winning the championship next year."
"If the second position wasn't too weak this year, it wouldn't be possible for Reggie to play that level."
"Besides, you're leaving now, where can I find a suitable replacement..." Willis Reed kept begging.
Dad laughed, "How is Wilson? I think he can replace me perfectly."
Willis Reed was stunned, "Chuck, it's such a moment, don't joke."
"Let a 3-year-old boy be the head coach of our Nets? I'm afraid we will be laughed to death by people in the circle."
"You have to know that some players can be that kid's uncle at the age..."
The father shook his head and smiled bitterly. At this time, he came to Willis Reed to talk about his resignation, but in fact he wanted to find out what he said.
The Pitrovic incident before did make my father think about retirement and want to spend more time with his family.
But now because of Davidson's entry, his father naturally couldn't leave without a complete foothold.
Although he knew very well that even if he resigned, the Nets head coaching position would not be left to Davidson.
But he still came to test Willis Reed's tone to see if it was possible to let Davidson take over his position.
After testing, I found that there was no such possibility at all. Judging from Willis Reed's meaning, it is more likely to let Tolbert take the lead or go to other teams to find an assistant coach, which is more likely to let Davidson take the lead.
"Okay, then I'll coach for another year." Dad Chuck sighed.
"But, Willis, let me do the work of strengthening the second position."
"To be precise, it was left to the boy Wilson. You should be very clear about Murraysan's affairs. This boy's vision is much more reliable than that of us old guys."
My father took back his resignation application, but he also made his own request to Willis Reed.
Reed breathed a sigh of relief, as long as my dad didn't leave, everything would be easy to say.
As for strengthening the second position, Reed actually doesn't care much. As long as Davidson doesn't sell the team's three main players, everything will be easy.
The three main players of the Nets are naturally Coleman, Murraysan and Kenny Anderson.
