Chapter 308: Danny Angie
Who is Zhuang Fei?
Basketball fans all over the world know that this is a champion coach who can change the face of a team, a business coach who brings great benefits to the team, and a basketball godfather who can make all young players dream of.
Is Zhuang Fei the best head coach?
It doesn't matter, the important thing is that he is the most popular manager in the world, how can he not cause such a stir when the most popular manager in the world is about to change his club?
Once upon a time, all NBA teams were jealous of the Timberwolves, they didn't understand why the Timberwolves had such good shit luck to become the first stop of Coach Z in the NBA, this man only took two years to bring the Timberwolves to the top podium of the NBA, and it was also this man who made the Timberwolves the most profitable team in the NBA. So what now? Now the owners of almost all teams in the NBA have given orders to their general managers. Take that guy at all costs.
In the minds of these owners, the results of the team this season are no longer important, the most important thing now is the ownership of that guy, and even some owners have begun to prepare to act personally for this ownership.
"Who the fuck leaked this?"
In the face of Zhuang Fei's roar, Kevin McHale was very helpless, in fact, Zhuang Fei was also very helpless, and the news that he had not renewed his contract had been blocked. Only a few people such as team owner Glenn Taylor and team general manager McHale know about this news. In the eyes of other people in the outside world, although Zhuang Fei has not renewed his contract with the Timberwolves, he certainly has no intention of leaving, after all, no coach in the history of the NBA will leave after winning the championship. Obviously, the whole world did not think that Zhuang Fei would refuse to renew his contract until the New York Times revealed the news.
"Zhuang, you calm down first, there is no point in holding anyone accountable for leaking the secret" McHale looked at the angry Zhuang Fei and sighed helplessly, of course he knew who leaked, just yesterday the leaker found him and confessed to him, McHale was also very confused at the time. He really didn't expect the team's deputy general manager to be dragged to drink by a reporter from the New York Times and then leak it, for the team's top management and the media to mix McHale never felt anything wrong before, in the NBA this is a very normal thing, no team will be exempt. Basically, every team has the shadow of one or more media, the New York Times is Zhuang Fei's sworn enemy, but as a national newspaper, McHale has never wanted to completely draw a line with them, McHale also tried to make Zhuang Fei and the New York Times reconcile, it can be said that the deputy general manager still went to contact the New York Times because of McHale, and Zhuang Fei's refusal of Glenn Taylor's contract was also revealed by McHale to his assistant, It can be said that all these things happened because he, the general manager, inadvertently facilitated it.
This also made the Hall of Fame general manager very helpless.
Zhuang Fei fell silent again when he heard McHale's words, now is indeed not the time to get angry, Zhuang Fei is not a person who is easily hot-headed, and he quickly calmed down after being angry. This is indeed not the time to hold accountable, now is a very important moment for the Timberwolves, it can be said that if this news is highly amplified by the media, it can definitely affect the morale of the Timberwolves players, so even the big-mouthed Glenn Taylor dare not say it, which will bring fatal damage to the Timberwolves.
"Kevin, recently I hope that the team's management can keep their mouths shut, I don't want this matter to stop there, and don't let anyone make any explanations or make any noise to the outside world," Zhuang Fei pondered for a moment and said to McHale, and now he wants to issue a media ban before speaking. This is also the only way at the moment, let the heat of this matter cool down first. …,
"Well, I've already told you about this, and I promise that no Timberwolves staff member will say anything to the outside world in the future," McHale saw that Zhuang Fei's face was softened, and he didn't pursue it, and his hanging heart was relieved. For him, he didn't want Zhuang Feiqian to be angry with his assistant, after all, it was also an unintentional mistake.
Looking at the back of McHale leaving, Zhuang Fei sighed again in his heart.
The Timberwolves have been eventful recently, and Zhuang Fei's report of such a thing can be said to have exploded in the NBA, and it also blew up Minnesota. On December 8th, the Timberwolves, the first in the West, welcomed the Houston Rockets in the eleventh in the West at home, and the performance of the Rockets this season is still disappointing, especially the current state of the team's boss Olajuwon has basically reached the feeling of old age, and there is no shadow of the previous four centers, it can be said that the current team is completely supported by Francis alone in the game, For this season's West, even a team like the Suns with Kidd and Hardaway and a group of outstanding role players can't get into the top eight, not to mention this team that is only supported by a sophomore rookie, it can be said that this season The Rockets can be ranked eleventh in the West, which is already a very surprising thing, at least Zhuang Fei is very surprised.
In this Timberwolves home game, although Zhuang Fei was trapped in the current bad public opinion environment, Zhuang Fei still issued a must-kill order to the team, in fact, Zhuang Fei is also very worried now, because he can obviously see a strong worry in the eyes of the Timberwolves players, although these players know that they should not ask anything at this time, but Zhuang Fei's matter is definitely affecting their nerves all the time.
In this game, Zhuang Fei could feel that Tang Shuai of the rocket wanted to win this game, if it was a normal Timberwolves, they would not have any ideas, but the current Timberwolves are very abnormal, which also gave them a chance, but what made Tang Shuai very depressed was that he thought that the Timberwolves would be in a collective downturn because of Zhuang Fei's affairs, who knew that these Timberwolves were like a group of tigers biting them, Even when the game reached the fourth quarter, Tang Shuai wondered if the Timberwolves players wanted to vent their grievances on the Rockets.
No matter what the Timberwolves players think, but this game is indeed hearty, especially in the process of the game, the Timberwolves fans on the scene have been shouting the name of Timberwolves head coach Zhuang Fei, for them as long as Zhuang Fei is still standing in front of the Timberwolves bench, then Zhuang Fei is their favorite head coach.
The Rockets were unlucky in this game and became a vent for the Timberwolves players, and they eventually lost to the Timberwolves with a score of 98-123 on the road.
"Zhuang, how did you adjust this team, there is no opportunity to take advantage of it, this group of players is too determined, it seems that nothing can make them stop their desire to win the game, I originally wanted to take advantage of this thing to win a game in the Timberwolves" After the game, Tang Shuai said to Zhuang Fei helplessly, Zhuang Fei looked at Tang Shuai and could only shake his head vigorously, originally he was also worried about the emotional changes of the Timberwolves players in this game, as long as there is an emotional change for any team in the NBA, then the game will be difficult, This is a fact, no team in the NBA can win casually, but the performance of the Timberwolves players in this game made Zhuang Fei very happy, and these people did not disappoint Zhuang Fei at all.
"Hehe, I'm also proud of their performance, they are the best players for me" Zhuang Fei looked at the fans who had not left the stadium a little bit from the stands around him, and then added: "There are also good fans here"
"You're really ready to leave, aren't you?" Tang Shuai's eyes looked at Zhuang Fei deeply and asked, Zhuang Fei was stunned for a moment and then nodded lightly, Tang Shuai, who received Zhuang Fei's affirmative reply, suddenly stared at Zhuang Fei again. …,
"Zhuang, are you interested in coming to the rocket" After a long time, Tang Shuai said softly.
"Rockets?" Zhuang Fei really didn't think that Tang Shuai would send him an invitation.
"Zhuang, if you come to the Rockets, I am willing to be your assistant coach, and I also believe that you can lead the Rockets back on track"
Zhuang Fei wanted to refuse Tang Shuai's invitation, but seeing the expectant eyes of this old handsome Zhuang Fei hesitated again, and finally could only sigh helplessly and said: "I haven't made a decision yet, now I just want to win this season's championship" Zhuang Fei smiled after speaking, and Tang Shuai shook his head, it was obvious that Zhuang Fei rejected him. It's just that this refusal is a bit euphemistic.
Zhuang Fei knows that Tang Shuai is disappointed now, but there is no way, Zhuang Fei was a fan of Yao Ming and a fan of the Rockets in his previous life, he will only stay away from the troubled waters of the Rockets, if he really leaves the Timberwolves, is it necessary to go to the Rockets? If it's going to the Rockets, why leave the Timberwolves?
Although he refused Tang Shuai's invitation, Zhuang Fei knew that Tang Shuai was definitely not the last, and when this matter was poked out by the media, Zhuang Fei knew that he was going to be deeply annoyed now.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhuang Fei went to his office the next day, he received a call that he didn't expect.
"Mr. Danny Angie?"
Danny Ange, the former head coach of the Suns, has not been in touch with Zhuang Fei since he poached Nash from him, and Zhuang Fei has not heard any news about him since the head coach voluntarily resigned as head coach of the Suns at the beginning of last season.
And at this time, the call from this acquaintance who is not very familiar with it will naturally not be something else, it can only be a matter of Zhuang Fei's whereabouts. (To be continued.)
