The Spurs and Trail Blazers played Game 5, with the Spurs leading 3-1 and they had a chance to walk away with the series win directly.

In the East, the Pacers swept the 76ers in four games, the Knicks swept the Hawks in four games, and the two teams will meet in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Qiao Hai hopes that the Trail Blazers can win, so that the Spurs will be dragged to Game 6, and the Trail Blazers will return to their home court, and the Spurs may even be dragged to Game 7.

On May 25, the Trail Blazers challenged the Spurs at the Alamo Dome and shouted slogans before the game to bring the game back to Portland.

Qiao Hai organized the coach and players to watch the game, but he himself was absent because of other things.

Qiao Zhishui came back from New York, and the old Qiao called to ask Qiao Hai to go back to the San Gabriel Valley, Qiao Hai had no choice, his entire net worth was in Qiao Zhishui, except for the first batch of $100,000 to Qiao Zhishui, and then Qiao Hai successively gave Qiao Zhishui $400,000, a total of $500,000.

And Qiao Hai only has more than 40,000 US dollars left, which is the regular season ranking bonus and playoff bonus issued by the team some time ago, and Qiao Hai used some of it, and there are more than 40,000 US dollars left.

All the net worth is in Qiao Zhishui, Qiao Zhishui returned to Los Angeles, and Lao Qiao called again, Qiao Hai naturally wanted to rush back to have a look.

It's important for the Spurs to play Game 5 for the Trail Blazers, but he can watch this game at Old Joe's house in the San Gabriel Valley, watch this game with Old Joe, and maybe Old Joe can give him some special advice.

For example, a certain player of the Spurs played too badly, and he didn't play as well as I did, Qiao Hai can use it as a breakthrough......

……

……

……

San Gabriel Valley, Old Joe's apartment, two cars parked at the door, the same standard Mercedes Benz van.

The apartment was brightly lit, and Qiao Hai said secretly: Yes, Brother Zhishui is doing well!

Old Qiao's apartment is equivalent to Qiao Hai's home, he didn't stay outside the door, parked the car and walked directly towards the door, took out the key and opened the door, open the door is the living room, Qiao Hai took a look, and sure enough, it was all people.

Qiao Hai felt that he was not the protagonist, and was ready to say hello to Old Joe, so he went upstairs to hide for a while, and by the way, the game was about to start, and he still had the task of watching the game.

As a result, as soon as Qiao Hai appeared, Qiao Zhishui called directly: "Qiao Hai is back, come on, this is all looking for you." ”

Qiao Hai was stunned for an instant, all looking for me?

Turning his head to look over, sure enough, several people sitting around the sofa all looked at Qiao Hai with eager eyes, with fire in their eyes, and they looked like they wanted to eat Qiao Hai alive.

"Come, Qiao Hai, let me introduce you, this is Mr. David Falck, Michael Jordan's agent." Qiao Zhishui introduced Qiao Hai, David Falke, this name is like thunder, Qiao Zhishui doesn't mention the name behind it, Qiao Hai also knows.

Michael Jordan's agent, a famous player, Qiao Hai is a basketball coach, how could he not know David Falke, but David Falke came to the door, which made Qiao Hai a little surprised.

"Mr. Qiao Hai, it's a pleasure to meet you."

David Falke stretched out his right hand towards Qiao Hai, and out of politeness, Qiao Hai also stretched out his right hand, and the two shook hands.

"Hello, Mr. David Falck."

Qiao Hai's response was very simple, and then, he looked at David Falke with a puzzled look.

David Falke smiled, he knew that Qiao Hai wanted to know his intentions, but he never liked to speak so directly, so he asked first: "Mr. Qiao Hai, you should have been very busy recently, there should be a lot of things in the playoffs, this time it really bothered you and wasted your precious time." ”

Qiao Hai frowned secretly, he really wanted to reply: "If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have a fart, let it go." ”

After thinking about it, he still held back, he didn't want to give people the impression that he was brainless, so Qiao Hai also smiled: "It's okay, we've been winning, so in fact, we haven't encountered too many difficulties, so naturally we're not so busy." ”

"Haha, Mr. Qiao Hai, I have to say that your team leadership results are very good, which is extremely inconsistent with your age, I have to say, young and promising."

David Falke's face was full of compliments.

Qiao Hai gradually guessed something, and he didn't say anything.

David Falke himself said, "I heard that at the end of this season, you're going to leave the Lakers?" ”

Qiao Hai nodded noncommittally, this is already a fact that many people know, but Qiao Hai has never admitted it in person.

"I wonder if you have a careful plan for your future?" David Falck asked again.

This time Qiao Hai thought about it carefully and chose to shake his head, he really hadn't planned his future, mainly because he didn't know where to plan, anyway, step by step, Qiao Hai firmly believed in the theory that there must be a road before the car reached the mountain.

"Then I think you need an agent to help you plan well, you're still very young, only 24 years old, as a coach, a lot of people are still in the learning stage at this time, like Phil Jackson, who is still playing at this age, and Bill Feige, who is still an instructor in the U.S. Marine Corps at this age, and he is not even a basketball coach."

"So, your advantage over most people is age, but you need to take advantage of it, and that requires proper planning."

David Falke pointed to himself: "I'm a professional agent, and although I don't have coaching clients right now, only player clients, I'd love to get involved in coaching, and I can help you make a plan for the future, Joe, a lot of people know you're leaving the Lakers, so, there will be teams reaching out to you soon." ”

Qiao Hai nodded: "And then, choose a team?" I feel like I can pick the right team myself. ”

David Falke nodded, he was not afraid of Qiao Hai questioning, what he was afraid of was that Qiao Hai would not speak, now that Qiao Hai had spoken, he also put forward completely different ideas, it would be simple, persuade Qiao Hai!

"Of course you can choose a team that suits you, but Joe, have you ever thought about it? As a newcomer, in this league, you don't have any connections, even if you choose a team, it's very difficult for you to do some operations, if I help you with some help, everything will be different, I can help you get some connections, help you do some necessary operations, you will have a lot less trouble. ”

David Falke made the main point: "And, if you don't have a very good team contacting you, I can even help you contact a team and make you the head coach of that team. ”

"You're tempting." Qiao Hai shook his head. "But, I need to think about it, and besides, I think we can sit down and take a look at Game 5 between the Spurs and the Trail Blazers."

David Falke smiled, indeed, for Qiao Hai, the most important thing to focus on now is the game between the Spurs and the Trail Blazers, which is related to the Lakers' next playoff journey and Qiao Hai's personal future.

"Okay, let's see if the Spurs can win this game."

In fact, Qiao Hai has already relented, David Falke has discovered this, and he is not far from success.
