Legend Raiders

Chapter 144 Core Controversy?

leave the airport.

Qin Tao recalled the experience just now, smiled noncommittally, and then went to the training hall.

Because there was a game against the Wizards today, when Qin Tao entered the training hall, his teammates had already arrived one after another.

see him.

Guys headed by Greg Smith stepped forward to congratulate Qin Tao.

But when Harden appeared in the training hall, it was obvious that the atmosphere became somewhat depressed.

what happened? ?

Qin Tao looked at the others inexplicably, but they just smirked at Qin Tao and said nothing.

what the hell? ?
Qin Tao became more and more confused, shook his head, and simply walked towards Harden with a smile: "Hey, buddy, do you miss me?"

talking.

Qin Tao lightly clenched his fist as if he was going to give a black-style meeting ceremony, but Harden just forced a smile, nodded and walked to the locker room.

I rub!

Qin Tao froze in front of him, completely unaware of what the hell was going on.

of course.

If he knew that the current situation was caused by McHale's words, he would have to fight this old guy desperately every minute.

This special meow has provoked someone, and it was actually put on by the team's head coach.

Simply Marcus Morris told him euphemistically about the last game, or Qin Tao was really wronged.

"Here it comes??"

Qin Tao couldn't help but smiled bitterly, and a large number of cases about the team's seizure of power emerged in his mind.

Honestly.

If such a thing hadn't happened, Qin Tao really didn't think about it. He just wanted to play well and try his best to fulfill his goals and ideas.

But because of McHale's words, this guy suddenly fell into this situation. If he doesn't think about it, maybe something will happen to the team's chemical reaction.

How to do? ?

Qin Tao frowned thinking about this question.

but.

With Bickerstaff appearing in the training hall, a barely acceptable answer was placed in front of him.

"Man, we have to talk alone." Bickerstaff invited reluctantly.

Then the two walked to the lounge together, closed the door and talked about it.

"Honestly, as bad as this situation is, every guy who wants to be the best player is going to have to deal with this kind of problem at the end of the day."

Bickerstaff said straight to the point: "Now, after my reassurance, James is certainly relieved, but as a player who has been hand-picked by the team as the core player, no one wants to see a strong challenger. "

Qin Tao listened quietly, he was not going to speak before the matter was clear, otherwise he might put himself in a very embarrassing situation.

but.

Although Harden's mood is not very comfortable now, how could he be in a good mood for Qin Tao?
Especially after Bickerstaff said that, Qin Tao felt a sense of rebellion.

Make sense.

Let's not talk about what kind of achievements Harden has achieved in his life, and don't mention what Qin Tao's rebirth has brought to the Rockets. Just talking about his performance at critical moments, I am afraid that everyone knows which of them is more important.

Well now.

Hearing what Bickerstaff said, he actually wanted to support Harden. Qin Tao didn't turn his back on the spot, which was enough for him.

And Bickerstaff, as an assistant coach who is very good at communicating with young players, even if Qin Tao didn't speak for the time being, he already smelled something different.

Embarrassed.

Bickerstaff wanted to continue speaking, but was suppressed by Qin Tao's expression.

In response to this unexpected incident, he, McHale and other coaching teams have already met with the team management.

The final result is also very interesting. The management wants to appease Harden and give Qin Tao enough attention. They have even hinted that Qin Tao can be cultivated as the second core.

But regarding the relationship between them, the management didn't give them any explicit instructions at all, and they completely let them handle it.

At that time, their hearts were full of MMP, and their heads were full of beasts roaring past.

Honestly.

They understand the team's meaning very well. After all, Harden has shown the potential of a top star, and Qin Tao has also played his influence.

Even comparing the two of them, after a comparison inside and outside the field, it is obvious that Qin Tao has a lot of advantages.

First of all.

After Qin Tao gradually played amazing performances, the Rockets' games during this period can be described as crazy.

If not.

After more than a month of the game, the Rockets will definitely not be compared with other giants, and it is even more impossible to get a record like the top three in the Western Conference.

Second.

In terms of single-round commercial value, Harden is obviously on the rise, but Qin Tao has already put his own value in front of everyone.

think about it.

If Qin Tao can maintain his current state, not to mention that he will definitely surpass Yao Ming's height in the future, but it is enough to call it limitless.

Where is the NBA?
Since entering the 21st century and the iron-blooded tough guys in the 90s have gradually retired, the commercial atmosphere of the entire league has become even more exaggerated than some large multinational groups.

Then.

With Qin Tao's astonishing commercial value, I'm afraid Morey and Alexander are thinking with their butts, and they all know who has more influence and who has more weight in the team.

but.

Knowing this situation well, why did they throw this hot potato to Bickerstaff and the others?

Doesn't that mean you don't want to offend people and push them out to bear the consequences?
To know.

The current coaches are no longer just doing their own jobs. When necessary, they are the biggest victims of every team's struggle.

nowadays.

Bickerstaff was completely stumped and didn't know what to say.

And after Qin Tao couldn't hear the following, he didn't care what this guy meant, shrugged at him, and seemed very casual: "Harden is indeed the core of the team, and I am indeed a rookie. That's all."

With a little irony, Bickerstaff was immediately embarrassed by the comparison.

But he wanted to say something, but under the influence Qin Tao brought to the team, he really couldn't say a word.

Leave.

Qin Tao turned around and walked out of the lounge. After closing the door, he looked at the training ground downstairs, locked his eyes on Harden's figure, and said meaningfully: "I originally wanted to be brothers, but it seems that this process may be more difficult. It's a little tough."

Harden, who was practicing shooting, seemed to sense Qin Tao's presence. He raised his hand and threw the basketball into the basket, turned around and looked at the corridor on the second floor, and silently looked at Qin Tao.

spark?

Not far away, the other players who practiced each other secretly found their gazes, and this word came to everyone's mind at that time.

but.

When McHale appeared haggard, they shook their heads helplessly and continued with their own business.

oh~~
After seeing Qin Tao, McHale sighed weakly. Without his words, this kind of thing would never have happened.
