177    The self-cultivation of an excellent coach

Before Xie Hou opened the locker room, he could hear all kinds of movements inside, and his teammates were in a state of great enthusiasm.

What he was thinking was whether to participate? If he participated, he would seem unstyled, a little vulgar and would be regarded as an idiot; if he didn't participate, he would be too cold and would not be in line with his style of enjoying the same people.

"Arthur, what are you doing here?"

After such a wonderful game, Claire saw that their biggest project to win tonight was facing the locker room door thinking.

"I'm imagining the picture behind this door." Xie Hou said.

Claire said, "Don't you know if you open the door?"

Fortunately, Claire's imagination was not as evil as he felt that he had any special thoughts about the locker room door, otherwise it would be difficult for him to explain clearly.

They opened the door to the locker room, and most of them were shirtless and squirting each other with Gatorade, which was a good thing that the physical trainer worked hard to prepare.

Xie Hou didn't like Gatorade and Banana, but if he didn't have these two things tonight, he would probably not be able to hold on to the end.

The most important thing in life is not only contentment, but also gratitude.

So when Xie Hou saw these people slap their babies so badly, he couldn't bear it: "What did you do to Gatorade and Banana?"

Wang's escort Artest reported: "It's very obvious that we are destroying these two things to the fullest. Don't you hate them the most?"

Xie Hou instantly forgot his initial position and instead supported Artest and said: "That's right, don't let me see these disgusting things in two days!"

Seeing the players playing Olympiad with great pleasure, Claire smiled slightly. It was not the time to celebrate, but some energy had to be released. He understood and respected the players' practices.

He stood on the floor splashed with Gatorade, and there seemed to be a scent of sour lemon in the air, which he didn't like.

Whenever he smells this, he fully understands why the players don't like Gatorade.

Gatorade's taste has no effect on the effect, so why not make some more acceptable flavors?

Claire felt everyone in the locker room was watching him.

It should be that after experiencing such a big battle, he had to say something.

He said: "We played a very special game and won the victory in front of our incredible home fans. You did it! At the end of the fourth game, we talked about our defense, to stay aggressive, and we did a great job tonight. At the critical moment of the game, the Detroits counterattacked and played their momentum, and as a young team, we were calm and calm. Arthur, you are so outstanding that you deserve all the praises. It can be said that you won the game for us and helped us play one key round after another. Tonight, enjoy the victory, you deserve it, but don't forget that we have a bigger goal!"

A good coach must know until it is.

Although Claire lacks flexibility on the spot, is good at pre-game layout and has long-term planning, no one can deny his ability.

He is an excellent coach, no doubt.

"I know you're all tired. Most of you will go to Paradise Valley in half an hour. It's a good place and I'm a member of that, but now, I need someone to accompany me on another battlefield."

Some people are waiting for the call, while others are consciously retreating.

For example, Papalucas, who performed mediocrely tonight and would not be summoned by Claire.

For example, Xie Hou, whether he wants to or not, he will be one of the people who will accompany Claire to participate, and this matter cannot be decided by him.

Claire looked around and decided to bring Sherhou, Miller and Artest with him.

These three people happened to be the three Pacers who scored the most points tonight.

Xie Hou got the highest score, rebounds, assists and steals in the team;

Miller shot the most threes;

Artest barely double-double on the offensive end, but he cannot ignore his value on the defensive end, and his quick drops and baskets were hit several times a minute before the end of the game. If he hadn't been in tune with Xie Hou, even if Xie Hou successfully steals, he would not be able to pass the long assist immediately.

On the news, the players performed just as their respective characteristics.

Xie Hou is humble and confident, and he will make some arrogant remarks from time to time.

These remarks can make people see what kind of guy he is.

He would not deliberately restrain his personality, but fortunately his personality is not the kind that makes people disgusted.

Perhaps in the eyes of fans, Xie Hou's confident and a bit arrogant personality is cute?

The teammates whom he had with Surili didn't think so, this is another ironclad evidence that distance produces beauty.

Xie Hou’s most arrogant answer tonight was when the reporter asked him if he was confident of taking away the series at Auburn Hills Palace.

Xie Hou replied: "End the series on the road? Why not?"

Just like Xie Hou's opponent likes to play his sweeping meme, Xie Hou himself is also addicted.

To play the sweep meme, the steps are very simple. First ask back, then deny and affirm.

If any meme wants to be circulated, it must have a universal effect, that is, it can be trapped no matter what it says.

This is how Xie Hou's sweeping slut exists.

It was a difficult decision to bring Artest with you. This stupid, big, black and thick guy is always worry-free. Claire is ready to cut off his interview at any time. Fortunately, this wild beast that is not smart is normal tonight.

"In the fourth quarter, Arthur asked us to have a good defense. It was not an ordinary good defense, but a defense that was still impeccable when it was placed at 30,000 feet high. Then we forced the Pistons to make a mistake. I think my performance in that round was even if it was placed at 40,000 feet high. "Atester said of the defense tonight, while praising Xie Hou's good leadership, he was not ashamed.

Miller shook his head silently. Young people nowadays are really not ashamed.

"Although Arthur failed to become a regular season mVp, he is the choice for me."

Claire's excellence is not only because he is good at tutoring the team, but also because he really figured out Xie Hou.

Maybe other players just smiled knowingly when they heard you praise him.

And Xie Hou, when he hears you praise him, his reactions are different from others.

Others may be modest, smiling, nodding slightly, and may even pick up the microphone because others praise it too hard and say, "Don't say that, I'm not that excellent."

Thank you? Unless the world is destroyed and seeing his modesty is the last wish of his family, he will never express modesty in the face of praise in his life.

He never hates too much praise, and the higher you praise, the more excited and happy he is. He does not feel uncomfortable at all, but instead looks "yes, right, that's really good."

So Claire said this: "What he did tonight is probably difficult to accomplish when it comes to other players in the league. Here, I don't look down on other superstars, but Arthur tonight is obviously at another level. He is what we can see. The ultimate form of a basketball player, and an mVp-level player is going to play this game."

Claire dared to say this, not just because Xie Hou was outstanding in playing.

Moreover, in the Western Conference Finals, the Timberwolves, led by mVp in the regular season this season, were led by the Lakers F4 3-1 after the first four games.

Of course, the reason why alien Kassel was reimbursed for injury was caused by this.

The media will not care about these things. They want gimmicks. They consider the public's reaction.

Therefore, there is an argument like this: "If mVp is announced after Game 5 of the division final, Arthur will definitely be elected with a high vote."

Under such a background, Claire could say this without any abruptness.

But in a few seconds, a reporter asked Xie Hou: "What do you think of Coach Claire?"

"As we all know, Rick is a generous person. I have never heard him tell lies, so what he said today should be sincere. I believe that he (just as I believe that I am better than I thought) is sincere." Xie Hou said with a smile.

Everyone was smiling, Minnesota media was in their hearts.

The press conference should have been a joy, but at the end, a media from California asked inappropriately: "Coach Claire, how do you evaluate Jermaine O'Neal's performance since the start of the division final?"

From the regular season - playoff round, semi-finals - Eastern Conference finals. Along the way, O'Neal Jr.'s performance was a cliff-like decline.

The regular season averaged 2o8, 188 per game in the round and semi-finals, and 1o7 per game in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The decline in rounds and semi-finals is an acceptable category. Although there is a decline, it is not big.

The Eastern Conference Finals... This is no longer a simple decline.

This is a normal level of inefficiency in the second team star player.

Especially tonight, O'Neal's poor performance made Claire press on the bench and watch his teammates win the game. If the live director gave him a close-up of his face, the audience would not have seen any excitement and joy on his face.

Claire is no less disappointed with O's than outside.

The questioner has ulterior motives, and he will not be trapped.

"The Pistons have the best inside defense combination in the league. Except for Shaq, I think few inside players can play normally under their defense." Claire stood up for his disciples. "Jermaine's offense is limited, but his defense is improved. Compared with him before, he can average 3 blocks in the Eastern Conference Finals. His existence guarantees the defense of the penalty area. This is something that anyone who watches the game will not deny."

A sensitive topic that may have a severe impact on O'Neal Jr. was resolved by Claire.

Claire just proved again that Bird was right to meet him at first sight.
