Chapter 125 You'd better come and trouble me, old man
Davis was nervous when he heard that Isiah Thomas wanted to work in the management of the Magic. . .

"Brother, if you become the general manager, the players of the Magic will not give you bad luck... What did you do to the Knicks when you were the general manager..." DeWeese complained frantically in his heart.

Trading out the big contracts that are about to expire in exchange for a few new, stinky and long contracts is Thomas' basic operation.

And bullying the Knicks is rich, with a salary of [-] million a year, but still can't get results. . .

Although he does have some unique features in the draft, but!

Yu does not hide her flaws!

Davis can say with certainty that Isiah Thomas is a sucker in terms of management!

Thomas asked curiously: "Why? Don't you look down on my Hall of Fame status? I went to your Magic team to save face, okay?"

Davis didn't know how to answer, he couldn't say that I knew you were a fool as the general manager, right?With an idea, he said to Thomas: "The Magic still lacks a coach for the guard project. Are you interested?"

Thomas smiled and said, "You boy, do you think so little of my management ability?"

"It's more than not optimistic, it's simply very unfavorable..." Davis complained.

"Let me think about it when I recover from my injury." Thomas stopped joking with Davis.

At this time, the system in Davis' body was ready to move.

"Release a temporary task: Hire Isiah Thomas as the coach of the Magic team. Task requirement: Thomas verbally agrees to join the Magic team coaching staff. Task reward: Isiah Thomas player card for the 85-86 season."

Davis didn't expect the system to give him such a good benefit.

What was the level of Isiah Thomas in 85-86?
Averaging 20.9 points, 10.8 assists and 2.2 steals per game, the real ceiling for point guards.

If he can get the Thomas player card for this season, Davis feels that the least skill he can get is A-level.

"To be honest, Thomas, I have always wanted to build a dynasty in the Magic. What I lack most is the addition of big guys with championship experience like you. This is why I brought Bird and McHale here together. As a player, you have already won a championship. Don't you want to get a few more rings as a coach?"

Hearing that Davis really invited him to be the coach of the Magic, Thomas was a little surprised. He thought that Davis was just evasive.

Thomas suddenly became interested.

"Mike, are you serious?"

"of course."

"But, to put it bluntly, including Bird, McHale and me, we are all players who have just retired and are not suitable for being a coach yet."

Davis already has an answer to this question.

"Experience has the benefits of being rich, and just retiring has the benefits of just retiring. Just retiring means that you can still keep up with the rhythm of the NBA and you can better demonstrate to the players. Can you expect Mr. Chuck Daly and Mr. Reed Auerbach to come off the field and confront the players in person during training?"

Thomas nodded, feeling that what Davis said made sense.

"My injury, the doctor said that it will take about 4-5 months to recuperate. If I decide to retire, I will be able to walk normally in about a month without surgery. Then it's settled. One month later, I will report to the Magic team."

Davis cheered inwardly.

"Mission accomplished, get an Isiah Thomas player card for the 85-86 season."

Just at this time, Joe Dumars and Dennis Rodman also came back.

"How did you two talk?"

DeWeese laughed, "It was a very good talk, and I gained a lot."

"Since this is the case, Thomas, why don't you go back to Detroit? The Magic will pay for your treatment. Just before the surgery, I held a press conference to announce that the three of you will become the coaches of the Magic."

After discussing the specific matters, DeWeese walked out of the hospital refreshed.

Rodman next to him looked at Davis with a strange expression on his face.

"What's the matter Dennis, why are you looking at me with this expression? Is there something dirty on my face?"

"Michael, I found out that you are simply a wizard. Can you read people's hearts? Back then you lured me to the Magic with what I needed most, and what method did you use to lure Isiah to the Magic today?"

Davis smiled: "Does someone as attractive as me need to use tricks every time? Couldn't it be Isaiah who requested it?"

"I don't believe it, by the way, take me to the barber shop in the city center, and my hair has been changed." Rodman no longer cares about this matter, but strokes his own hair, feeling tired of seeing this blue hair.

"What color do you want to dye this time?"

"Well, I think green is good, let's go green."

"It makes sense. If you want to live a good life, you have to have a little green on your head."

"Where did you hear this sentence? It's very philosophical."

DeWeese laughed, "I heard it from a very harmonious place. It just so happens that I'm fine now, so I'll go with you, and I'll get my hair done too."

Two hours later, Rodman walked out of the barber shop with DeWeese on the grassland above his head.

Davis is engaged in the land monopoly.

"Your hairstyle looks very energetic. I will try it next time."

Inexplicably, DeWeese, who had gained a lot more, returned home very happily.

Anna saw his hairstyle and came up to touch it curiously.

The two quarreled for a while, and DeWeese told Anna what happened after he went to the hospital.

"Wow, Thomas is coming to our team too. Our team is about to become a retirement home for Hall of Fame players." Anna joked to Davis, "In this case, you might as well invite your master to come over as well, so that the top players in the entire NBA in the 80s will come to our team as coaches."

Davis's heart moved, and he had a bold idea.

"Let's not talk about that, I'll eat something first."

While eating, Davis was thinking about the feasibility of his idea just now.

"Let's see when the time comes, I guess it shouldn't be a big problem."

There was nothing to say all night (for fear of being harmed), and the next day, Davis came to the team to start training as usual.

They are going to Indiana tomorrow to face the Indiana Pacers.

Last time, DeWeese earned a lot of attention on Reggie Miller. This time, he is also confidently preparing for the team's tenth consecutive victory.

However, the eternal truth of the NBA is.

There is no weak team in the NBA!
The next day, the Magic unexpectedly lost to the Pacers. This time, Reggie Miller no longer insisted on a one-on-one match with Davis, but played team basketball.

Even though O'Neal scored 49 points and Davis scored 18 points and 11 assists, the Pacers had a total of ten players and eight scored in double figures. .

In the end, the Magic lost to the Pacers by 3 points away.
