The team that Nelson has coached for so many years should not be indecisive, but this happened.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Nelson is just like other coaches who compromised and prepared to be a puppet. This still doesn't exist. After all, Nelson has such a good reputation that he can't do such a thing.

It's just that the Han Chinese team is so special, so special that nothing like this has ever happened before in the league.

For example, after Nelson was determined to join the Han Chinese team as the head coach, he personally called Chuck Daly, who was already in retirement, to greet him. After all, Chuck Daly is the leader of this team.

A former head coach who knows the team and even the players very well. I learned from Chuck Daly that apart from his responsibilities as a head coach, he cannot interfere in other matters including the draft and trades. He only has

Just a right of suggestion.

This is really no problem for the football head coach. If the players are not good, they can just replace them. Anyway, a football team can have 20-30 people, and they can be replaced at will.

But basketball is different. The NBA can only apply for a maximum of 15 players, which means that if the players are used incorrectly, it is difficult to have the opportunity to replace them. Of course, you may say that there is not a summer and winter transfer market.

Sometimes, they can be replaced. But don’t forget, the Han Chinese team is the only team in the league that specializes in trading.

There are not many teams. It can be said that the Han people have rarely changed players midway over the years. No matter how rubbish the players in the team are, this team will wait until the season is over before discussing trade matters. Looking at the Han people transactions from his perspective

Judging from its history, this is a team that doesn't like to acquire stars, even free stars.

Now comes the problem. Nelson, who only has the right to make suggestions, will definitely not be able to get the players he wants. So what should we do? We can only report the problem to the top.

This is also in line with Nelson's current mood. God knows if he was cheated by Cuban once and will continue to be cheated by Bruce. It only takes one such thing to happen, so the best way is to bring this team together.

All problems are reported to the management, so that if something happens, you can get away with it.

…

When Kupchak heard what Nelson said, he had no choice but to admit it, because this was barely considered the job of the general manager. Of course, general managers of other teams did the same thing.

"Okay, then tell me, let's discuss it!" Kupchak said while sitting on the sofa, picking up the coffee on the table and taking a sip.

"The first is the center. Needless to say at this point, the new No. 1 pick is Yao. There are also Brad Miller and Sam Perkins on the bench. I think there is no problem with the center.

.”

"I won't talk about Dayao. Let's talk about Brad Miller first. With him, I can use Princeton tactics, and he can also fulfill the important task of organizing the center. After the start of the new season, Dayao and

He will be my usual role at the center position. As for Sam Perkins, to be honest, unless one of Dayao and Brad is injured or rotated or the game enters garbage time early, otherwise

Otherwise, Sam Perkins wouldn't have a chance to play."

Nelson said it very straightforwardly. He has set his sights on Yao and Miller for the center position. As for Perkins, he is too old and is no longer in his plan. In addition to his good peripheral skills, Perkins now

Apart from the three-pointers, its biggest role is to teach inside players how to shoot from the outside. The other ones have no value at all.

Considering that this is the last season of the veteran Perkins, the contribution he can make is relatively limited. If he is still in power, such a veteran will definitely either be laid off or traded.

As a so-called mad scientist, I cannot have players without value in the team, especially those with tactical value. Obviously Nelson's role in Perkins is a manifestation of this.

Kupchak nodded. He also knew that this was actually the case. This was originally Perkins' last season. After the game, he was ready to retire and enjoy a happy life. At this time, how much effort can you expect from him? Besides,

Perkins was not the future of the Han Chinese team. If he couldn't play, he wouldn't be able to play.

As long as Dayao's playing time can be guaranteed, there will be no problem.

"By the way, Coach Tang, I have to remind you that Dayao's playing time is set by the prince himself. Each game in the regular season is 30 minutes. If he enters the playoffs, his time will be increased to 35 minutes per game.

, cannot be exceeded, even in the finals, there can be no exceptions. In addition, we must take turns during back-to-back games. I believe the prince should have told you about this. I will also arrange for Dr. Thomas to pay attention at any time.

Arrive." Kupchak said coldly.

It can be seen here that Bruce has absorbed the experience of Van Gundy and Adelman in his previous life, and cannot let Dayao play in games all the time. Dayao's knees will not be able to bear such a game of more than 40 points in every game.

Nelson also frowned after hearing this. To be honest, he also objected to Bruce being so special to Dayao.

In fact, on the issue of Dayao's playing time, Kupchak and Nelson have the same objections. The amount of playing time for a player is determined by what happens on the field. But Bruce is used to being a dictator. I have decided.

Once the matter is settled, it is settled, and it is useless for anyone to refute it, even if Dayao comes to him in person. It can be said that this is the only privilege that Bruce gives to Dayao.

This is one of the reasons why Nelson wanted to bring up the starting issue to the management. It was really Bruce, the little kid, who was too dictatorial and maverick.

Nelson is not too entangled in the issue of Dayao's playing time, because he believes that Bruce not only talked to them, but also told Dr. Thomas. As long as Dayao or other players are injured, there will be no Dr. Thomas.

No one can arrange for these players to play if the specially approved playing certificate is signed.

It can be said that in terms of authority, Dr. Thomas actually has the right to allow players to play. As long as Dr. Thomas speaks and does not allow his players to play, then the player can only continue to rest. Even if the general manager and head coach personally request it. This is

It’s incredible for other teams in the league. You must know that no team’s doctor in the league has this privilege, except for Dr. Thomas.
