Chapter 1539 The Retired Mad Scientist
In a coffee shop in downtown Memphis, Lan Shengli was chatting with his former chief assistant Harper.

The reason why it is said to be the predecessor is that Harper has submitted an application for resignation, and Cole has also agreed to the application.

Although Lan Shengli didn't want to agree at first, but under Harper's explanation and persuasion, Lan Shengli chose to let go and accepted Harper's request with a mind of "don't do to others what you don't want to be done to others".

After that, the two talked about the candidate for the chief assistant position that the team vacated after Harper left.

"Although I can't recommend a coach, I can recommend you a person who can give you more help and make your entire coaching ability achieve leapfrog improvement~!! In this way, it is equivalent to letting you You have an excellent assistant coach~!!"

"You often mentioned this person before, and your current offensive philosophy is deeply influenced by this person~"

Harper This is the bridge where Xu Shu "recommended Zhuge on horseback".

"He is the old Nelson known as the "mad scientist" who is one of the few thousand-win coaches in NBA history~!!!"

Harper announced the identity of this "Zhuge".

"Old Nelson~?!, is it really him~?!"

After Lan Shengli heard the name, he seemed very excited.

"That's right, but don't get me wrong. He will definitely not come out to coach again, let alone be your assistant coach, but I can recommend you to him. During the offseason, you You can learn from him~!"

Harper responded.

"If that's the case, it's really great~!! If old Nelson really comes out, I'd rather be his assistant coach~!!, haha~!!!"

Lan Shengli sighed with a smile.

"Although I respect Popovich very much, what I admire most is old Nelson, this mad scientist~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to talk excitedly.

"I understand that respect and worship are two different things~"

Harper nodded and said.

"That's why I want to introduce you to him, I believe you can learn more from him~!"

Harper said.

"Thank you, Harper, you've helped me so much over the years, and now you're leaving, and you've done me another big favor~ I really don't know how,"

"Wait~, if you want to thank you, let's wait until you really start learning from a teacher. It's too early to say this now~"

Harper interrupted Lan Shengli and said.

"After all, Old Nelson has lived a retired life now, and he is no longer willing to touch basketball and NBA things. In addition, he has a weird personality and is difficult to figure out, so I can only tell Where do you live now? For the rest, it’s up to you~!!”

Harper continued.

"No problem, as long as I know where he lives, everything else is fine~!!, I haven't done such a challenging thing for a long time, haha~!!!, it's exciting just thinking about it ~!!"

Lan Shengli became more and more excited as he talked.

"This guy is really full of energy~"

Harper shook his head, sighing.

"Old Nelson lives in Hawaii now, this is the name of the street where he probably lives~"

"Huh~?!, Hawaii~?!, so rich~?!"

"Of course, Old Nelson used to be a player, so he must have made a lot of money over the years. Besides, his son is now the general manager of the team, and his family is very rich~!"

"He is really an old man who can enjoy himself, and he moved to Hawaii~"

The two continued to chat about the situation of old Nelson.

"Take this letter, it's a recommendation letter~, give it to old Nelson, although he and I don't have that deep friendship, but we are still old friends, maybe it can help you a little~"

On the occasion of parting, Harper handed Lan Shengli an envelope.

"Well~, thank you, brother~, I have the opportunity to come to Los Angeles, come to the Clippers, there will always be your home~!!"

Lan Shengli accepted the envelope, hugged Harper, and said, his eyes instantly became moist.

"Prepare well, if you enter the finals next season, I will go to the scene to cheer for you~!!"

"I will~, you guys have to work hard too, I'm looking forward to my VIP seat for the state championship finals, haha~!!"

The two bless each other, and then go their separate ways.

Life is like this, no one can be with someone forever.

Even parents, even lovers.

What we can do is to do the things at hand well, enrich ourselves, and enrich our lives.

While talking, Lan Shengli took Harper's recommendation letter and boarded the flight to Hawaii.

Harper's last letter of recommendation helped Lan Shengli get a job at UCLA. Now this letter, I don't know if it can help Lan Shengli realize his wish.

"It should be here~"

While speaking, Lan Shengli had arrived in a small town in southeastern Hawaii.

This tropical island town is simply a dream home.

The clean asphalt road is not very wide, and there are very few vehicles, so there are even no traffic lights at the intersection.

There are residents on both sides of the road, and there are some green plants at the door. After all, Hawaii is such a place where every inch of land is expensive.

Don't be surprised that seagulls suddenly land on the street lamp in front of you, because all the animals here are very adapted to this place, and Hawaii is such an original ecological place.

The cool breeze from the Pacific Ocean makes people feel refreshed, and even in midsummer, they will not feel a little stuffy.

Maybe that's why Hawaii is considered a great place for a summer vacation.

"Hi~, do you know where Don Nelson's home is~?!"

Lan Shengli quickly found a passerby wearing beach shorts and asked.

"Sorry, I'm not a local~"

The other party shook his head and responded.

In places like Hawaii, people who wear board shorts may not be locals anymore.

"Hi~, do you know where Don Nelson's home is~?!"

Lan Shengli quickly asked about a woman who had just walked out of the supermarket.

"Don Nelson~?!, I don't know~"

Women are supposed to be locals, but that's all.

"Just go to the supermarket and ask about it~"

Thinking to himself, Lan Shengli walked into the supermarket.

"Hi~, do you know where Don Nelson's home is~?!"

Lan Shengli asked the cashier.

"Don Nelson~?!"

The cashier frowned and asked.

"Yes, that fat, silver-haired old man who used to be the head coach in the NBA~"

Lan Shengli immediately explained, as if there was hope.

"I don't know~"

The cashier shook his head.

Hopes were quickly dashed.

Lan Shengli turned around and prepared to leave the supermarket.

"Are you looking for Mr. Nelson~?!"
