Starting with 2006

Chapter 87 A New Member

In order to avoid the crazy reporters, Gao Tian had to live in seclusion, and basically spent all his time in the arena. This made Gao Tian very helpless, but at the same time he was also a little fortunate.

Fortunately, I didn't see that woman. Otherwise, I could really be annoyed to death. Du Fei is amazing. I heard him say that the matter has been completely resolved yesterday. Gao Tian couldn't help but be moved. Next time, I must give Du Fei a raise. !

Another day later, all members of the Phoenix Suns took another plane and flew to Saramento, and this time their opponent was the mediocre Kings.

If you use one sentence to introduce the king, it is that Mike Bibby is a very good player!
Then it's gone.

The most glorious time for the Kings was undoubtedly in 2000. At that time, under the Princeton tactical system of head coach Adelman, Chris Webber, Peja Stojakovic, Divac and Mike Bibby all Played the most brilliant performance of his career, and then because of the conflict between Webber and Peja, the team finally disbanded.

So far, only Mike Bibby is still on the team, and the most famous player on this Kings team is undoubtedly Ron Artesto.

This is one of the most well-known players in the United States. After being traded to the Kings by the Pacers, although the Kings intend to use him and Bibby as the core to rebuild the team, it is clear that he is not the kind of player who can become the cornerstone of the team. .

The game against the Kings was very relaxed, and the atmosphere of the whole game was very relaxed. Artesto, who made Gao Tian most vigilant, was also very normal and did not make any extraordinary moves.

The rare three-quarter check-in ended, and Gao Tian stopped playing after scoring [-] points. After all, the point difference was close to [-] points, and the main lineup had all been withdrawn, and only the substitutes played on the court.

In the end, the Suns defeated the Kings 122:100, and the Suns rushed back to Phoenix the next day.

Gao Tian looked at the smiling man in front of him with a dazed face, and suddenly felt that he didn't know this world anymore.

Confused about the fruit on the tree, under the tree, you and me.

Not only Gao Tian, ​​but all the Suns stared blankly at the surprise that D'Antoni hurried back to show them.

This is a surprise?

No, it's scare!

He was obviously the head coach of the Bucks a few days ago, so why is it now that the Suns are here.

……

For a while, everyone didn't know what to say. It was the first time they saw such a scene. It wasn't until D'Antoni coughed that Nash hurriedly greeted everyone.

"Uh, let me introduce you. This is coach Terry Stotts. You must be familiar with him. Terry will be our teaching assistant in the future. Everyone must support Terry's work as a teaching assistant!"

Gao Tian is still fascinated. He remembers that Stotts left when he coached the Bucks until the second half of the season, and it is said that the Trail Blazers and Mavericks were willing to hire him as an assistant coach. After 12 years, he went to the Suns. Unexpectedly Now he will actually come to the sun.

Seeing Stotts' sincere and enthusiastic smile, Gao Tian really realized that he had changed history, and this was no longer the era he was familiar with.

"High, high!"

Nash patted Gao Tian lightly, Gao Tian woke up in an instant, and hurried up to shake hands with Stotts, but Gao Tian didn't expect Stotts, who was full of excitement, to hug him directly.

"Gao, you are my favorite player! You are amazing!"

……

Hearing this, everyone had different expressions, especially D'Antoni, who stared at the bewildered Gao Tian with a strange expression. D'Antoni, who was originally very confused, instantly understood why Stotts came here.

At the beginning of this season, there was news that the current head coach of the Bucks management team was not satisfied. They were looking for a new head coach. D'Antoni, who knew the news, immediately sent an email to Stotts.

Because the Suns are still short of an assistant coach, although there are many people to choose from now, they can’t satisfy D’Antoni, so D’Antoni sent an email directly when he knew that Stotts might leave. It's too much hope, but what if it's possible?

Although he didn't know Stotts too deeply, D'Antoni still knew his abilities. Both tactical reserves and talent training were top-notch. The fly in the ointment was because he was an academic coach, so in The ability to react on the spot is still somewhat weak.

But now for the Suns, they don't care about coaches who respond on the spot at all. Although neither D'Antoni nor other assistant coaches are very good at making quick decisions in critical moments, the Suns have no other way in real critical moments.

There is only one trick, and that is to give the ball to Gao Tian!
The biggest significance of Stotts' arrival to the Suns is the establishment of a defensive system, because the Suns' running and bombing system makes their defensive tactics very difficult. D'Antoni and his team have been working on solving this problem for a long time, but the harvest little.

And the current Stotts' tactical reserves are likely to be able to help the Suns solve this problem, so when Stotts arrived, he was very excited. He had given up hope after his email disappeared, but he didn't Thinking of Lin An Hua Ming another village, unexpectedly went around and came to the sun again.

In fact, he didn't quite understand why Stotts came to the sun at the beginning. You must know that the salary he gave was only average, and the sun was not a good place for him because he was not familiar with the place here. Far from being as good as he was with his fellow apprentices.

But when he saw Stotts' enthusiasm for Gao Tian just now, he instantly understood that he came here for Gao Tian.

Although he knew that Stotts came here for Gao Tian and his running and bombing tactics, D'Antoni didn't panic, because at least now Stotts couldn't take Gao Tian away anyway, so no matter what he wanted to do here, Just stay here.

As long as he can truly establish the Suns' defensive system, then it's worth it!

As for learning to walk and run, D'Antoni doesn't care at all. After all, tactics are dead, but people are alive. It will take two or three years to learn to walk, but keeping Stotts here for two or three years is undoubtedly The sun earned it.

At this time, Gao Tian, ​​who was being hugged, couldn't bear it anymore. Although he knew that hugging was an American gesture of etiquette, he still couldn't help complaining in his heart. I'm afraid this old man is not gay!
After hugging her for so long, she still refuses to let go!

Why haven't I heard of him before?

Seeing the weird smile on Ricky Davis' face, Gao Tian helplessly helped his forehead, what happened.

Although Gao Tian felt that Stotts was very weird now, Gao Tian did not reject his enthusiasm, because for the sun, the arrival of Stotts was undoubtedly a great thing for the sun.

Maybe it's time for Nash to practice ultra-long three-pointers?
