Chapter 414: Paul Westphal is leaving?

If he were a little bit tougher, Bruce could completely trade Garnett away, and then only keep the single-core Kobe. Wouldn't it make people feel that the Han's misbehaving is more reasonable.

Coupled with Mourning's operation and Sam Perkins' retirement, the inside line is no longer there. New York is equivalent to the face of the league. Bruce believes that even Stern will be sympathetic to this New York remnant team. There is not the worst, only worse!

"Prince prince, you still want to trade Steve, right."

It seems that Nash can’t keep it anymore. Mickey Kupchak has to think with emotion. In fact, he really likes the player Mickey Kupchak of Nash. This is a very good-tempered and gentleman player. Nash in this big dye tank in New York is undoubtedly the most special one. Mickey Kupchak has heard more than once that many players from the team invite Nash to nightclubs and entertainment venues, but Nash is the kind of training to come to the arena every day. For the first-line life of resting at home, this is what Mickey Kupchak admires, and even Kobe sometimes goes to cheer up, but Nash is completely the kind of man who cares about the family, which makes Mickey Kupchak. Why is it black!

"In fact, I don't want to trade Steve, but Steve and the team's future play style really contradicts, it's useless to stay!"

Bruce is also very helpless. He also knows that Nash is definitely one of the top ten good guys in the NBA. He still loves such players. But helpless is the compatriots and the players you like, and the patriotic will definitely choose compatriots. Because of the quilt, Nash can only say sorry.

"Prince prince, I hope you have a preparation. Coach Paul likes Steve very much. If Steve is traded out, then coach Paul will...?!"

Mickey Kupchak did not dare to say too clearly. Obviously, the situation is already quite complicated. It can be said that trading Nash will undoubtedly affect the whole body. He also hopes that the prince can think twice. There is no problem with trading Nash. , But if you wait for a few years, it would be best.

Because not only Kobe did not agree with Nash’s departure, but even head coach Paul Westphal did not agree, because he finally found a core player who was good at bombarding. As a result, the team had to trade the opponent out before he played. How can this not annoy Paul Westphal!

Paul Westphal treats Nash like Rick Adelman treats Brad Miller. In the latter part of the regular season, Nash's tactical status is even higher than that of Kobe. Paul Westphal Nash is regarded as the offensive axis, and even a lot of tactical coordination is developed around Nash. It is not an exaggeration to say that Nash is Paul Westphal's "godson".

"Oh, there is this, what does Coach Paul want to do?!"

Bruce, who has never been a threat, laughed. What's the matter, Paul Westphal still wants to go with Nash, right? That's okay, I can just right Carlisle.

"NO, please listen to my explanation. Coach Paul's contract expired this year. Although he did not express his intention to renew the contract to the team, he himself said that he would wait until the end of the season."

The meaning is obvious. It depends on the team's attitude towards him. If Nash, Paul Westphal's "godson" is traded away at this time, then there is no need to stay.

In fact, Mickey Kupchak still prefers to continue partnering with Paul Westphal. If a head coach comes over, it will definitely affect him. But Paul Westphal is different. He The definition of the team is to be only responsible for the team's tactics and training, and ignore everything else, so that there will not be any conflict with him. How great!

"Oh, it turned out to be like this, then it's okay. I'll just talk to him in person at that time. You don't have to worry about this."

If it is Paul Westphal who wants to leave the team, then I am afraid it will be more troublesome. Bruce is also a little headache now, but in Bruce's view, the most troublesome thing is actually the performance of the Hans in recent years. On the other hand, even if Carlisle is replaced by a different head coach, there is no guarantee that the Hans will still be able to make the playoffs in the past few years. If they do not enter the playoffs, the draft picks of the Hans next year will play a good role. The Toronto Raptors would not be worth it. It would be a big fool to exchange two picks with the same value for one pick.

It seems that there is still a need to prepare for both hands. In case Paul Westphal also leaves the team, I still have to hire a famous coach to coach for a few years. Wait for the new century to let Carlisle take over, and please The celebrity coach came to eliminate the influence of the first-round signing in the lottery zone in 1998. Paul Westphal’s departure will definitely affect the enthusiasm of some of the team’s players, so this mentality is not necessary in the 97 regular season. It's just a bit of a fish. On the contrary, if you hire a famous coach to coach for a few years at this time, then on the one hand, you can reduce the value of the first round of the 98 team you traded, and on the other hand, you can also change the way the team lives. , There’s no need to hang on a tree, it’s greasy to bombard too much, sometimes it’s better to change the way of life, besides, if the team has been using bombardment, then maybe this tactic will be adopted. Become a habit, which is not good for Yao Ming to join the team in the future.

But then again, Paul Westphal had no credit and hard work during the five years of coaching the Chinese, right, even if Paul Westphal chose to leave Bruce in the end, he would invite him. Let him help bring the Mountain City Fire Dragons on the Chinese side and even continue to serve as the chief assistant in the future.

"I see, I don't know if the prince has anything else to tell?!"

Mickey Kupchak can know from the prince’s voice that the prince has seemed to be dissatisfied with his old partner Paul Westphal. He is also a part-time worker, and now he can’t risk being scolded. Go and say something nice to your old partner, right?

"How are you looking for the psychiatrist?!"

Bruce remembered that regarding the Kobe incident, he had conveyed to Mitch Kupchak that the team should have its own psychiatrist. He also called Mitch Kupchak to apply for several psychiatrists to come to the team for mental health care. Coaching.

"Prince prince, I have taken care of the psychiatrist. The doctors in the local psychiatric clinic in New York are invited to provide psychological counseling for the team, but they may not be able to report until next season."

This season is about to end, so I can only arrange for him to work next season!

The psychologists in the 1990s were really not so early. To be precise, they were harder to find. These psychologists were either professors in universities or doctors who specialized in psychology clinics, Mitch Koop. Checker chose the latter. Since he wants to hire a psychologist, he hires a professional. What is the deal with the kind of university professors coming to the team? ! Part-time? !

If the prince knew that he would invite a psychology professor in the university to give psychological counseling to the players, would he be angry and sick! Mickey Kupchak can't bet.
