Chapter 890 [The strongest in history, retreat bravely]

In this finals, the star showdown between the two sides made fans hooked.

Curry averaged 28.1 points, 4 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 2 steals per game. He shot 44.3% from the field, 41.9% from three-point range, and 90% from the free throw line. He won the FMVP.His shooting percentage is lower than the regular season, not a perfect play, but not comparable to other point guards.

Durant performed better than Curry, averaging 32.2 points, 8 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game, shooting 51.5% from the field, 43% from three-point range, and 92.7% from the free throw line. Unfortunately, the prize can only be awarded to the winner.

Many people believe that the Wizards star played well this time, and it was Yang Rui who beat Thibodeau.In the tiebreaker, the role of the coach is even more critical.

Yang Rui rotated players and arranged tactics with ease. All 13 players in the entire series played and played their roles.

On the Wizards side, only 8 people are mainly rotated, and 10 people are rotated in total. Jennings and Mahinmi only play about 8 minutes per game.

Jennings couldn't support the wall with mud. After entering the finals, he was different from the regular season. He averaged only 1.3 points and 1 assist per game. He shot 37.8% from the field, and the three-pointer was even worse, with a total of 10 of 1 shots.At the end of the season, he's almost out of a job.

Los Angeles fans stayed to watch the awards ceremony. The atmosphere was very frenetic. After six consecutive championships, the Clippers are already recognized as the strongest team in history. Who doesn't want to participate in this historical moment?
Yang Rui shook hands with President Adam Silva. Looking at this guy with glasses, squinting eyes, and smiling like a profiteer, he suddenly felt a little empty and boring inside.

When Silva took office, he repeatedly expressed his commitment to creating a more competitive and fairer league, but in the past few years, he has shown by his actions that he is a pure businessman. In order to make money, he does not hesitate to manipulate the game.

Someone on the Internet described it as: a ghost, roaming everywhere in the playoffs.

As long as fans watch the game carefully, they will find that in the playoffs, teams without big-name stars have no whistle.

In this finals, whenever a team is about to widen the gap, a few scattered whistle will always bring the game back to normal, making the two teams more anxious.

This is Silva's NBA, the power of the referee has never been stronger.His idea is to make the playoffs more exciting and make the NBA Finals another Super Bowl.

Maybe one day, Joe Crawford's bald referee will become extremely dazzling, and the NBA will fall into darkness.

At the press conference, the reporter asked: "Jerry, you are only two championships away from Auerbach's record of eight consecutive championships. How do you feel now?"

Yang Rui smiled and said, "Someone asked this kind of question last year. For me, it's not a record that has to be broken. It has no special meaning, and of course I don't have any special feelings."

A room of reporters didn't know how to continue this topic. Yang Rui seemed crazy enough, but it was a true portrayal of his career.There are people on the Internet now suggesting that the league force him to retire, otherwise other teams have no chance of winning the championship.

Every year, experts analyze the reasons why Yang Rui leads the team to be strong, and many teams imitate his tactical play and team building methods, but the Clippers always have the last laugh. A group of basketball legends think this is too evil.

After winning the game, Yang Rui greeted everyone to have a party on the "Tranquility" as usual. The players were all having a good time, but Yang Rui couldn't feel the passion of the past.

He is now like a star in the Chinese Spring Festival Gala. He appeared for the first time, and all the audience liked it, full of freshness.Then he appeared every year, even if he had the status of Uncle Benshan and was the finale, everyone's passion would fade over time.

To put it bluntly, he has won too many, and it is boring to win. It is time to retreat.

Even if he continues to win, what's the point?In the field of basketball coaching, he has long been the first, and in the number of championships, he also surpasses everyone in the league.Moreover, the Clippers need to maintain the depth of the lineup. If they change a coach, they may not be able to win the championship. The team will not become an underdog just because he leaves.

Yang Rui wanted to do something else, and he couldn't stop once the idea was born.

He didn't need to discuss it with his family, and Thomas Bentley didn't recommend him to be a basketball coach from the beginning, but wanted to develop Facebook together.His girlfriend and children want him to spend more time at home, especially the children, who want to play with him.

His time has long run out, and if things go on like this, sooner or later, the family will be disbanded.

At this time, the first assistant Luke Walton came to chat with him with a glass of wine. "Jerry, the Celtics want me to be their head coach, and I may be leaving this summer."

"You haven't agreed yet?" Yang Rui asked hurriedly.

"No, I said I would give them an answer after the season." Walton smiled wryly: "Actually, I really want to stay in Los Angeles, but I don't want to be an assistant coach for the rest of my life."

"It's fine if you don't agree, just let it go. It just so happens that your contract expires. As the owner, I announce that you will be the head coach of the Clippers next season." Yang Rui picked up the glass and touched Walton's glass lightly. .

Wharton was taken aback. "What did you say?"

"I said that you will be the head coach of the Clippers next season. It's a verbal agreement. Is there a problem?" Yang Rui asked with a smile.

"I'm the head coach, how about you?"

Yang Rui took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "I'm retiring, and I will announce it to the public during the championship parade in a few days. The previous parades were boring. This time I want to make a big news."

Wharton's face suddenly blossomed with a smile, he saw that Yang Rui was not joking, and it was impossible to joke with him about this kind of thing.

People are all selfish, and Wharton is not a hypocritical person, and he is naturally happy.

Since ancient times, when the prince ascended the throne, he killed many of his brothers who took the throne; when his father passed the throne, he knelt down and cried: "Father, you are still young, and your son does not want to take over."There are basically no such people.

Walton felt that he was about to ascend to the sky in one step. He is Yang Rui's disciple and direct descendant. As long as he doesn't make mistakes, he will definitely be able to work in the Clippers for many years.Being the head coach of a giant is an honor in itself.

That night, Yang Rui shared his thoughts with his three girlfriends, and they all supported him to retire and be the owner of the Clippers with ease.

As a boss, you don't have to lead the team to train, let alone follow the players to away games. Yang Rui only needs to wait to collect the money. Most of the time is vacation, and he can do whatever he wants. This is the case with most team owners.

Two days later, when the Clippers won the championship parade in Los Angeles, Yang Rui announced his retirement in a high-profile manner in front of the media and fans. Everyone was shocked.

The reporter asked: "Didn't you just say last season that you want to retire at 50? That's not enough."

Yang Rui shrugged: "I'm talking about 50 years old at the latest, not necessarily. Now that I have won enough championships, it's time to give young people some opportunities to compete. The future is theirs."

The news of Yang Rui's retirement was immediately announced on the Internet and made headlines on the homepages of major websites. Facebook was the most prepared and released an exclusive video of the interview.

Yang Rui explained some thoughts in detail in the video, thanking the players for their dedication and hard work, and the fans for their long-term support.

Netizens had a heated discussion, and most people thought he was cool, and not many people spoke up to keep him.

Yang Rui read the comments and was convinced that he made the right choice. Everyone was tired of seeing him winning the championship.Americans advocate individual heroism, but do not like to see someone invincible, so Superman will be afraid of kryptonite, not to mention that he is a mortal.

Yang Rui doesn't feel sorry. He has lost the advantage of foresight. Next, he can only study the analysis report of scouts like ordinary people to decide whether to sign or not. Why bother?
