Chapter 1079: Jordan's stubbornness
"Last time you said Kawhi's injury would be worse than expected? Has he ever communicated with you?"
Popovich should have encountered injuries and entanglements with Leonard as in history.
Tang Tianduo reminded him that Popovich should have thought that Leonard and Tang Tian had communicated.
"No, I just watched the video, what's wrong?"
Tang Tian asked tentatively.
"Okay... I can't contact him now. He doesn't trust the team now. To be honest, I don't know his injury now, and he ran to New York by himself."
Popovich looked at Tang Tian when he said this.
This is more clear. He knows the relationship between Tang Tian and Leonard, so he wants Tang Tian to help.
"Old man, I have an opinion on this matter. I don't know if you want to hear it."
Be a person to the end and send Buddha to the West.
Since he had spoken with Popovich, he would have started and ended well.
Popovich nodded and signaled to him.
"Kayey's personality is different from Tim. He is not the kind of good baby, even though he looks like he is."
Popovich was surprised when he heard this. Obviously, he felt that Tang Tian was wrong.
But he didn't say anything, there might be two people in front of the same player, coach and teammate.
Tang Tian said this, the reality is likely to be like that.
“He has experienced his father being killed, so he will be sensitive and he will have his own ideas.
So in my opinion, if he believes in the New York doctor more, let him go and see him, and he will naturally come back after the exam."
"Then he can't lose contact with the team!"
After Tang Tian finished speaking, Popovich said angrily.
He has coached the Spurs for more than 20 years, and it should be the first time he has been treated like this.
"I think Paul George has a bad head. If he is too impatient, no one can guarantee that Kawhi won't do that."
"He dares!"
As soon as Tang Tian finished speaking, Popovich slapped the table in anger.
This bad temper is exactly the same as when he coached Tang Tian.
However, after the filming, he realized that Tang Tian was no longer Tang Tian from the Spurs period, and his angry expression gradually withdrew.
"Old man, not everyone is Admiral Robinson, nor Tim, Manu or Tony.
Kawhi is not a good baby, but he is not a devil either.
I think giving him certain superstar rights and making him feel respected, then he will turn around and be loyal to the team, which is also a good thing for the Spurs' future development."
Tang Tian finally spoke.
If he hadn't played for the Spurs and hadn't played for two years under Popovich, he wouldn't have said these words.
But he has played for it, one is his mentor and the other is his younger brother. He does not want the two to go to the extremes in history.
Some things changed when he traveled over, and some things didn't. He hoped that this thing would change.
Popovich stared at Tang Tian for a while, then nodded.
Others say he doesn't believe this, but Tang Tian said he is willing to believe it.
Tang Tian nodded with a smile.
No one knows what will happen to Popovich and Leonard in the future, but at least it is developing in a good direction now.
The Pelicans' next game opponent is the Hornets.
Butler was thinking about the game against the old master Mavericks. That hadn't started yet, but it was his turn yet, it was Walker's turn first.
After the Hornets let Walker go, Jordan showed his vision and traded Terry Rozier from the Celtics in a future first round.
This deal was criticized by many fans. After all, the Hornets had a bad team and even left Walker. The first round pick was very valuable.
But Jordan disagreed with the public and felt that Rozier was the chosen son of God.
The Hornets have 0 wins and 7 losses in the past 7 games, ranking last in the league.
However, Rozier performed well, averaging 20.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 5.1 assists per game, making him the team's number one scorer.
"He has no chance in Boston for the past two years, and it turns out that all this guy lacks is one chance."
"He is a natural scorer. He always maintains an attacking desire to go to the basket. He can also find his teammates in the open space. He is very versatile."
“He has a chance to be Charlotte’s new ace, and I believe that.”
...
This performance made Jordan feel particularly flirted. He has praised Rozier's performance in public more than once.
Obviously, this was Jordan's stubbornness.
Letting Walker go made him laughed at by fans. Everyone thought he was not good at vision, so he wanted to prove that he had the ability to recognize beads with keen eyes.
Others laugh at me for being too crazy, but I laugh at me for not seeing through it!
The 20+5+5 defender was discovered by him!
The day before the game, the Pelicans arrived in Charterlow to prepare for the game against the Hornets.
The opponent is relatively weak, and the Pelicans did not arrange training after they arrived.
And this time, Davis did not go to Charlotte with the team because of his hip discomfort.
The Hornets conducted daily training.
During the two-hour training, the first and the half are closed, and the last half is open to the public.
Some of the open knowledge is simple shooting training, but the reporter found Jordan at the training site.
He conducted careful shooting guidance training on Rozier on the sidelines.
It can be seen that the God of Basketball particularly likes this short man who is 1.85 meters tall.
The reporter also quickly found Jordan for an interview.
Jordan has rarely accepted interviews with reporters since he became a boss, but this time he made an exception.
"What do you think of tonight's game? This is the first time Kemba Walker has returned to Charlotte since leaving the team."
"We all know that the strength gap between the two sides is quite large tonight. Has the coaching staff said how to win?"
"Rozier will face Kemba Walker tonight. What do you expect from him?"
...
When the reporter asked questions, no matter who you are, he was very clever and he was not polite.
"I prefer your question."
However, Jordan had a strong aura, so he did not answer one by one, but instead named the last reporter who asked the question.
This is a selective answer, domineering side-leak.
“Kemba’s contribution to the city is obvious to all, but we are now focusing on Rozier, who is working hard to help the team win.
I don't know how he will develop in the future, but I look forward to him reaching or even surpassing Kemba Walker's level."
Jordan's answer is simple, but it is also very intriguing.
But like his previous answer, Rozier attaches great importance to it.
After only 7 games, he was already looking forward to Rozier surpassing Walker.
The reporter wanted to continue asking questions, but Jordan waved his hand and signaled that it was time for him to accept the interview.
Ignoring the disappointed expressions of the reporters, the God of Basketball had left the training hall under the escort of two bodyguards beside him.
ps: I recommend a friend’s new book "Krypton Score King". You can tell that it is also in Krypton mode by looking at the name. It’s not bad. If you are interested, you can take a look.
