The first game after Christmas was another long away trip, but fortunately it was 5 days and 3 games, which was not too difficult.

The Heat's three opponents are the Memphis Grizzlies, the Seattle Supersonics and the Los Angeles Clippers.

I don’t know if it was too exciting for Christmas. The Heat lost a crushing defeat against the Grizzlies in the first game.

84:100

In this game, all the Heat players were not in shape, even Chen Mo was the same.

17 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, it doesn't seem too bad, but a 40% shooting percentage can already tell the problem.

Chen Mo's performance is average, so the others can only describe it as bad. Brad Miller and Eddie Jones are completely out of shape.

On the contrary, Haslem, Mo Williams, and Blake performed well.

This is very problematic. Those who get married have become soft-legged shrimps, while those who are not married have performed well.

I don’t know what kind of exercise these people did when they went home, and it was like they were being squeezed out.

To be honest, looking at this lineup really made Chen Mo a little jealous.

Paul Gasol, Sean Bathir, and James Posey, and White Chocolate Jason Williams.

Moreover, white chocolate is no longer as coquettish as it is abroad, and it has become much more restrained in playing basketball.

If you want to watch NBA back then, who watched the most highlights of the competition?

White Chocolate can be said to be at the same level as Jordan and Curry, and the passing is really too coquettish.

Perhaps today's game was going well, and Chen Mo also saw several extremely coquettish passes of Bai Chocolate with his own eyes.

It's like passing the ball under the crotch without looking at people, and passing the ball behind the elbow...

Of course, while there are wonderful performances, there are also mistakes that teammates can't react.

Don’t look at the coquettish passes of white chocolate in the collection, all of them are piled up with mistakes.

In addition, on the bench, there is another familiarity with Sean Bathir.

"Stan, I've told you a long time ago that you can't treat these players too kindly, but still don't understand?

Look at their performance today, they all became soft-legged shrimps, and they should not lose this game.

It's just an irrelevant game, and if it's a critical battle, or even a playoff, you have the potential to ruin the entire season."

...

It was already evening in the hotel in Seattle, and Chen Mo was preparing to go to the hotel gym to have an activity.

But unexpectedly, when a familiar voice sounded, it was in the hotel restaurant, where Pat Riley and Stan Van Gundy were sitting.

Isn't it strange that the general manager of a team actually appeared on the away game with the team?

Well, that's not surprising to the Heat.

Unless something special is happening, Pat Riley will basically follow the team away.

After all, when arranging tactics on the spot, he always had to check for the missing and fill in the gaps for Stan Van Gundy.

Pat Riley was obviously excited, and then Stan Van Gundy was like a primary school student who did something wrong.

Chen Mo was also gossipy and pretended to order some food, but he actually wanted to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two.

"Mr. Riley, I'm sorry, I just think it's Christmas after all!"

"So what about Christmas? They are professional players and they have a salary that ordinary people don't have in their entire lives, so there should be sacrifices."

"Sorry, I won't make such mistakes again next!"

...

I didn't hear it completely, but Chen Mo understood the general situation.

It turned out that at Christmas, Pat Riley didn't plan to have a holiday at all, but instead trained the team.

As a result, Stan Van Gundy, as the head coach, won the players these two days of vacation.

Logically speaking, Stan Van Gundy is a bit of a bribe, and the players are also very grateful to him.

But who would have thought that if he lost the game today, Stan Van Gundy would be the one who took the blame.

It's just a game, and the Heat are firmly occupying the second place in the East. Should they be so serious?

Thinking of the guess in later generations, Chen Mo had a little clarity and then left quietly.

During the original time and space, Stan Van Gundy also replaced Pat Riley as the head coach of the Heat.

However, it only lasted for more than two seasons, and ended with Stan Van Gundy resigning voluntarily.

As for the reason, Stan Van Gundy said that he wanted to accompany his family, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was an excuse.

As for the real reason, it is nothing more than Pat Riley undermining Stan Van Gundy.

Of course, there is a more evil saying, that is, Pat Riley saw hope of winning the championship, so he drove Stan Van Gundy away.

Of course, the latter guess is a bit heartbroken.

If Pat Riley really wants to do this, it won't be done in the middle of the season, and he will fire Stan Van Gundy before the season.

However, there must be a conflict between the two, especially in tactical arrangements.

Regarding the issue of tactical arrangements, the two argued not once or twice.

Although every time it ends with Stein Van Gundy's retreat, it's just that, more and more situations are happening.

Chen Mo guessed that perhaps it was because the Heat's performance was getting better and better, which made Stan Van Gundy more confident.

It is best if a general manager, a head coach, and a contest between two big bosses.

He is just a pitiful and humble little rookie, it is better not to participate in this battle.

Well, in fact, Stan Van Gundy has already had hints that he complained to his players many times that his tactics were not recognized.

Chen Mo didn't care about this. He only knew that the position of Pat Riley as the general manager was quite stable.

That's right, whether the head coach is Stan Van Gundy or Spoelscola, these are Pat Riley's team.

I just don’t know if Stan Van Gundy can last for two years this time?

Chen Mo practiced a little in the gym, took a shower and went to bed, and there would be a competition tomorrow.

Seattle Supersonics, just a few years ago, was still a strong team, especially during Jordan's championship.

The Rainman Sean Kemp, Gloves Gary Payton, and Schramff, a pretty good lineup.

Unfortunately, with years of investment, Supersonics has never received the rewards they deserve and brought back the championship.

This is true for every team. They have not been able to see the championship for a long time. Rebuilding is their only way out.

In this way, Sean Camp left Cleveland and began his career wandering journey, traveling to three teams, and retired last year.

As for Gary Payton, he led the Supersonics to continue fighting. Unfortunately, he had no help, and even entered the playoffs with some difficulty.

As for Schramf, he simply chose to retire after leaving the Supersonics for less than two years.

Now, even the only pillar, Gary Payton, has left, and the Supersonics has completely embarked on the road to reconstruction.
