Chapter 447: The fox pretends to be a tiger, but Tyronn Lu (second update)

After the game, in the Clippers locker room, Tyronn Lue, who won his first win as a coach, was splashed with water by the players in celebration.

The ice water topping not only brought joy, but also reminded Tyronn Lue to calm down.

It's just the first victory in my career, and it's still far from the real goal.

The team took a break for the past two days, and Tyronn Lue spent time studying how to be a good coach.

But Tyronn Lue is different from other coaches. Other coaches must be busy watching videos, reading tactical manuals, and meeting with the coaching staff to establish the team's strategic direction...

He didn't. The first thing he did was to visit Cole's house and the two had dinner together.

Although Kerr has opinions about Tyronn Lue, if someone comes to him and shows his kindness, Kerr will definitely not be able to refuse.

Moreover, both of them have experience playing under Phil Jackson and have also worked together with Michael Jordan, so they have many common topics.

During the dinner, Tyronn Lue opened up and said that he was still a newbie and didn't understand many tasks as a head coach and needed Cole's help and guidance.

Cole is not a small-minded person. Tyronn Lue came over early to shake hands and make peace. Naturally, he stopped engaging in cold confrontation and promised to arrange the team's offense.

Anyway, Cole has already figured it out. If he accumulates two to three seasons with the Clippers, he will have a place where he can use his coaching talent to change careers.

Now he is lurking in the abyss, ready to go, and he is dedicated to his work of tactical assistance.

After Tyronn Lue took care of Steve Kerr, the person he visited at noon the next day was neither Lao Jin nor Lucas, but the team's deputy manager Olshey.

During the break between training at noon, he invited Olshey to get together outside. Tyronn Lue also specially prepared a gift for Olshey - a bottle of expensive gin.

Steve Kerr is the first assistant coach. He was recruited by Smart and is essentially the same team as Tyronn Lue.

Coupled with the background relationship between the two, it is easier to win over.

And Lao Jin, Lucas and others are old Clippers officials. If you go to find them one by one, who do you go to first?

It would be better to find their former boss, former general manager Olshey, and take care of Olshey.

I originally thought it would take a lot of effort, but I didn't expect Olshey to be very talkative. After accepting the bottle of gin, he said that the coaching staff and management would support his work.

"You are the coach Mr. Smart personally requested. Our management has no reason not to support you."

Olshey specifically mentioned Min Congda, letting Tyronn Lue understand that he was doing it for Min Congda's sake.

Tyronn Lue understands this truth and knows that he is a fox pretending to be a tiger, so he must make good use of Min Congda's reputation.

After taking care of Olshey, the coaching staff is temporarily settled. At least there won't be no one to help with daily work.

Then all Tyronn Lue has to do is build a good relationship with the players.

Since the Clippers have no real big brother, Tyronn Lue decided, "We are all big brothers!"

Let’s start with Zach Randolph. In the evening after training, Randolph was invited to play with cars.

He knew that Randolph liked Chevrolet, and when Tyronn Lue was playing with the Lakers, he happened to know a big player who collected antique cars.

He took Randolph to visit the big black gamer's garage and test drive it, which made Fatty Lan very happy.

Fatty Lan did it easily.

In today's game against the Raptors, Randolph performed very well.

He was extremely efficient in the paint, scoring 31 points, and was the number one contributor to the Clippers' victory.

After the game, Tyronn Lue aimed his second strategy target at Stephen Curry.

But Curry, this kid, wants to practice more after the game, and then have dinner with his family.

He doesn't have any special hobbies, let alone any bad habits. I really don't know how to deal with him.

Or, players like Curry don't actually need to deal with it. He has always had a good temper, plays hard and will not make any mistakes.

Therefore, Tyronn Lue targeted another young talent, James Harden.

Tyronn Lue's main job these two days is not to design tactics, but to understand the players' personalities, hobbies, families, etc. through various channels.

It is said that Harden used to like to go to nightclubs, but his mother caught him once, and he never dared to go there again, and the nightlife suddenly became boring.

Tyronn Lue thought that Harden was too young. As long as you have money in a place like Los Angeles, if you want to play safely and comfortably, are you still worried about not finding a place?

It can only be said that Min Congda, a low-class guy, has no place to indulge his energy without Baron Davis.

After all, Tyronn Lue has played for the Lakers for a few years. He knows very well where there is a place to play and have fun.

After the post-game press conference, Tyronn Lue sent Harden a text message, giving him an address and asking them to hang out together in the evening.

James Harden felt so itchy that after the extra practice, he drove to the address on the text message and found that it was a large villa in the outer suburbs of Los Angeles.

There was a person checking the identity at the door of the villa. Harden met Tyronn Lue who was waiting for him at the door. He took Harden into the large villa together.

Then it seemed like a whole new world opened up. It was much more interesting and fun than any nightclub or club.

After all, Harden is still young. Seeing such a big world for the first time, he couldn't help but ask: "Is this Los Angeles? I...I can't believe it."

Tyronn Lue smiled and said: "Of course this is Los Angeles, but you haven't been exposed to it before. When you become a superstar and win a championship, you will be exposed to more and a bigger world. Come on,

Boy."

Tyronn Lue knows that desire can make people fall, but it can also make people strive for progress.

The key is to see how to use this double-edged sword well.

In the world of competitive sports, it is absolutely impossible to have no desire.

This place itself is a vanity fair built with money and beauty.

There may be people who are clean and self-sufficient, such as AC Green, but they are alien.

And AC-Green is just a role player.

Among those superstars who have truly become super-big names, which one is a good gentleman who eats fast and chants Buddha's name?

Especially in Los Angeles, let’s not talk about Magic Johnson, Chamberlain in the past, and Kobe in the future.

It is said that Kobe Bryant was a model husband. Would a model husband have the Eagle County Incident?

There is a saying that when you find a cockroach in the house, it means there is already a nest of cockroaches.

But this does not hinder Kobe's status as a superstar and the number one player in the NBA at the moment.

His performance and influence on the court are absolutely phenomenal.

In Tyronn Lue's view, his players must learn to release their desires and stimulate their desires in order to reach the pinnacle of achievement and become the brightest star in the league!

This night, James Harden was exposed to a new world, and he was about to start to understand.
Chapter completed!
