Legendary Basketball Tycoon

Mickey Kupchak did not intend to conceal Kobe about the fact that the prince prince changed the blood of the Han management this year. On the contrary, he needs Kobe to help him stabilize the other players in the team. It will be great if it arrives, at least the prince will also act lightly on himself when he arrives.

You must know that this is not a trivial matter. If it gets bigger, it can cause an earthquake. Not to mention the management of the team, even the coaching staff was also replaced. What does this show? This shows that the prince has the current situation of the Han people. If you are not satisfied, if your boss is not satisfied, it means that you people are not working properly. Blood exchange is necessary, and the pain is lasting.

"What, coach Paul will leave too?!"

Kobe was stunned for a while. He didn't expect that the prince would use Paul Westphal to operate. After all, Paul Westphal is a veteran who has been following the team since the establishment of the team. There is no credit and hard work, right? , Just open it!

At this point, Kobe felt that the prince was obviously a bit overwhelmed this time, a bit too unreasonable.

"Well, Paul will expire this year due to contract issues. Originally, I wanted to renew the contract with Paul, but now the things that determine Paul’s renewal ideas are coming. The prince will definitely trade with the Raptors, Kobe, you I also know that Paul now treats Steve as his own son. If Steve is traded away, Paul will definitely leave the team in sorrow!"

There are many coaches in the NBA who resigned because of the team, but most of the head coaches resigned angrily because of irreconcilable conflicts with the players. People like Paul Westphal who do not choose to renew their contracts for the players. Rarely, although Paul Westphal is silly to do this, he is a very conscientious head coach to outsiders.

"So this is ah!"

Kobe thought that Paul Westphal was expelled by Bruce. What is the difference between him and those ancient kings in China? He is also the master of all birds, good bows, hanging rabbits, and lackeys. But now It seems that the prince is completely wrong.

At the same time, Kobe also looked very moved. He was very envious of a coach who could dare to fight with the top of the team for himself, and at the same time he could leave as soon as he left. Yes, it is indeed Nash who can meet such a player-conscious coach. Fortunately, I don't have such a good life, but fortunately I met Bruce, a good boss.

"Then who is the head coach of the team next season, do you know Mickey?!"

In Kobe’s opinion, Mickey Kupchak, as the crown prince’s most loyal dogleg, must know something. Otherwise, he would not be so calm, or he would rush to other cities to invite the head coach. So there must be a goal to be so stable as Mount Tai.

As for what Mickey Kupchak said at the beginning, he may also be opened. This is not a shit, who didn't know that you Mickey Kupchak is the prince's person, and he is very loyal and has a very good ability, that's it. Open a person who is loyal to him and obedient, and I am afraid that the prince is not stupid.

Therefore Kobe does not believe that Mickey Kupchak will be opened, he believes that it may be possible to adjust the position of Mickey Kupchak.

"I really don't know about this. The prince ordered that if Paul refuses to renew his contract, he will find a coach again. As for whether there is a suitable candidate in the mind of the prince, I am afraid he will have to wait for him to come back."

According to the date of the prince’s stay in the United States in August of this year, the regular season of the next season has not yet started, and there is still time to find a head coach at that time.

Kobe nodded, and felt that he would have to wait for the prince to come. I really can’t be too hasty about changing the head coach. After all, what kind of Han Chinese the prince is going to make in the future, then the requirements for the head coach are almost the same. Up.

Although Kobe is not very keen on changing the head coach, apart from considering that Paul Westphal is a good person, he can accept it even if it is a head coach. Why, because Kobe knows about Paul. Westphal’s coaching ability can only be regarded as the middle-to-average kind, not to mention the tactical thinking, and he rarely chooses to be flexible. Do you think he can win the championship under such a coach? I am afraid it is difficult. Well, if you want to win the championship, you have to have a famous coach to coach.

"But I got the notice that Rick Carlisle and Li Qiuping will report to the Sonics after the end of next season, serving as assistant coaches over there!" Mitch Kupchak threw another bomb out.

"What, Rick and Lee go to the SuperSonics and work part-time as a teaching assistant consultant?!"

Kobe was stunned. What kind of operation is this? How can there be the position of teaching assistant consultant in the league? !

"Yes, in fact they only studied at the supersonic for a few years, and will come back to continue playing for the Han Chinese." Mitch Kupchak replied helplessly with a shrug.

Indeed, the contract extensions of Rick Carlisle and Li Qiuping are now in the drawers of Mitch Kupchak’s office, and they will be renewed after the season. The contract of Rick Carlisle. There should be no problem. Li Qiuping's contract will have to be renewed after he and the prince come back.

"Why would the prince let them study at supersonic speed?!" Kobe said what he wanted to know.

Yes, the chief assistant Rick Carlisle can completely become the head coach of the Han people in advance when Paul Westphal is unwilling to renew his contract. Kobe still has a good impression of the chief assistant Rick Carlisle. I think that even if the Hans are coached by Rick Carlisle, their results are still very stable.

"Kobe, let me tell you that. Regarding Rick Carlisle and Li Qiuping, the prince was trained for a purpose. As for the purpose, I don't know what it is. I am only responsible for execution."

There is no need to tell Kobe so clearly. Rick Carlisle must be the head coach of the future Han people, so he should be asked to learn different basketball concepts, and Li Qiuping is because he has to take good care of the prince's little fellow Yao Ming. Although these things are not too important, but judging from the fact that the prince told himself that he did not talk to Kobe, it can be seen that the prince still trusts himself.

Is it necessary to say that Mickey Kupchak deliberately refused to tell Kobe the truth because of jealousy? !

Kobe felt that something was wrong right away. When did the prince also support his country, although the prince’s "godfather" Paul Allen is the owner of the supersonic, but in the end the prince could not inherit the supersonic. Take your own national soldier and send it to your allies. This is not what you can do if you are full!

In Kobe's opinion, the prince should not be so stupid. The supersonic speed is right for nothing. The chief assistant Rick Carlisle is not low in ability. Even if the Han is changed to the head coach, he can still be firmly in this position. For a few years, there is no need to leave at all, unless the Seattle side...

"Is Seattle going to change head coach next season?! And it's still a famous coach?!" Kobe asked the doubt in his heart.

Only for this reason can the prince choose Rick Carlisle and Li Qiuping to study in Seattle.
