Chapter 194 Internal Contradiction
The first game after Christmas was another long road trip. Fortunately, it was 5 games in 3 days, 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 much fun on Christmas. In the first game against the Grizzlies, the Heat lost miserably.
84:100
In this game, all Heat players were out of form, even Chen Mo.
17 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, it doesn't look too bad, but the 40% shooting rate can already explain the problem.
Chen Mo's performance is mediocre, and the others can only be described as poor. Brad Miller and Eddie Jones are completely out of shape.
Instead, Haslem and Mo Williams, as well as newcomers such as Blake performed well.
This is very problematic. Those who are married have become soft-legged shrimps one by one, while those who are not married are not bad.
I don't know what kind of exercise these people did when they went home, as if they were drained.
For the Grizzlies, to be honest, looking at this lineup really made Chen Mo a little greedy.
Pau Gasol, Sean Battier, and James Posey, and Jason Williams in white chocolate.
Moreover, today's white chocolate is not as coquettish as it is in foreign countries, and the game is much more restrained.
Speaking of watching the NBA back then, who watched the most game highlights?
White Chocolate can be said to be at the same level as Jordan and Curry, and the pass is really coquettish.
Perhaps because today's game went smoothly, Chen Mo also witnessed a few incomparably coquettish passes by White Chocolate.
Like a crotch pass that doesn't look at people, and an elbow pass behind the back...
Of course, while there are wonderful performances, there are also mistakes made by teammates who are unable to react in time.
Don't look at White Chocolate's coquettish passes in the highlights, all of which are piled up with mistakes.
In addition, on the bench, there is another one that everyone is familiar with, Sean Battier.
"Stan, I told you a long time ago that you should not be too kind to these players, or do you not understand?
Looking at their performance today, each of them has become soft-legged shrimp, this game should not be lost.
It's just an inconsequential game, and if it's a big game, or even a playoff, you can ruin the season. "
……
It was already night in the hotel in Seattle, and Chen Mo was going to go to the hotel gym for some exercise.
Unexpectedly, when the familiar voice sounded, it was in the restaurant of the hotel, where Pat Riley and Stan Van Gundy were sitting.
Isn't it a little strange that the general manager of a team appears on the road with the team?
Well, that's no surprise for the Heat.
Unless there is something special, otherwise, Pat Riley will basically follow the team in away games.
After all, when arranging tactics on the spot, he always has to check for Stan Van Gundy.
Pat Riley was visibly agitated, and Stan Van Gundy, like a schoolboy doing something wrong.
Chen Mo was also enough to gossip, he pretended to order some food, and actually wanted to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two.
"Mr. Riley, I'm sorry, I just thought, it's Christmas after all!"
"So what about Christmas? They're professional footballers, they're making salaries that normal people don't have in their entire lives, so there should be sacrifices."
"I'm sorry, I won't make such a mistake again!"
……
He didn't hear it clearly, but Chen Mo understood the general situation.
It turned out that during Christmas, Pat Riley didn't plan to have a holiday at all, but practiced the team instead.
As a result, Stan Van Gundy, as the head coach, won these two days off for the players.
It stands to reason that Stan Van Gundy has some intentions to buy people's hearts, 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 to take the blame.
It's just one game, and the Heat are still firmly occupying the second place in the Eastern Conference. Do you want to be so serious?
Thinking of the conjecture of future generations, Chen Mo realized a little, and then quietly left.
In the original time and space, Stan Van Gundy also replaced Pat Riley as the head coach of the Heat.
It's just that, it only lasted a little over 2 seasons, and it ended with Stan Van Gundy's voluntary resignation.
As for the reason, Stan Van Gundy said that he wanted to be with his family, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was an excuse.
As for the real reason, nothing more than Pat Riley emptied Stan Van Gundy.
Of course, there is a more evil statement, that is, Pat Riley saw the hope of winning the championship, so he drove away Stan Van Gundy.
Of course, the latter conjecture is a bit depressing.
If Pat Riley really wants to do this, it won't be done in the middle of the season, and Stan Van Gundy will be fired before the season.
However, there must be contradictions between the two, especially in terms of tactical arrangements.
On the issue of tactical arrangements, the dispute between the two did not happen once or twice.
Although every time it ended with Stan Van Gundy regressing, it's just that there are more and more such cases.
Chen Mo guessed that maybe it was because the Heat's performance was getting better and better, which made Stan Van Gundy more confident.
A general manager, a head coach, and a contest between the two big shots, he had better not get involved.
He's just a poor and humble rookie, it's better not to get involved in this battle.
Well, in fact, Stan Van Gundy has already hinted that he has complained to the players many times that his tactics have not been recognized.
Chen Mo doesn't care about this, he only knows that Pat Riley's position as the general manager is quite stable.
Let's put it this way, whether the head coach is Stan Van Gundy or Spoelscola, this is Pat Riley's team.
I just don't know this time, can Stan Van Gundy last for two years?
Chen Mo practiced for a while in the gym, took a shower and went to bed. There is a competition tomorrow.
Seattle SuperSonics, just a few years ago, this is still a strong team, especially when Jordan won the championship.
Rainman Shaun Kemp, Mitt Gary Payton, and Schrempf, a pretty good lineup.
It's a pity that for years of investment, the Supersonics have never been rewarded and brought back the championship.
Every team is like this, they have not seen a championship for a long time, and reconstruction is their only way out.
In this way, Sean Kemp left Cleveland, started a career wandering tour, moved to three teams, and retired last year.
As for Gary Payton, he led the Supersonics to continue the campaign. Unfortunately, without help, it is difficult for him to even enter the playoffs.
As for Schramf, he simply chose to retire after leaving the Supersonics for less than two years.
Now, even Gary Payton, the only pillar, has left, and the Sonics have completely embarked on the road of reconstruction.
Today, the Supersonics led by Ray Allen and Sharad Lewis, if they have no strength, it is not enough, but it is obviously not so easy to enter the playoffs, especially in the West.
There are only two chapters today.
