"The players are tired at the moment and we can relax a little bit in the recent period when we have been training a little bit"

In the office of the chairman of the Boston Celtics, Zhuang Fei frowned and said to the assistant coach of the Boston Celtics in front of him, this time is the second day that Zhuang Fei has just returned from Miami with the Boston Celtics players, and on this morning Zhuang Fei has given all the players a holiday for the first time, if in the past, Zhuang Fei would not give the team a holiday at this time, but in the last half a month, the Boston Celtics have played three games in four days, four games in five days, and even six games in eight days. And most of them are still away, in this case, even if Zhuang Fei doesn't want to interrupt the player's state, he must give them some buffer time. Come on,.!

After getting Zhuang Fei's instructions, the assistant coach of the Boston Celtics Stephen Green also nodded, and the other two Celtics executives on the side, Danny Ange and Karl, also listened to Zhuang Fei's orders with serious faces, although this matter has nothing to do with him, but because of the loss in the last game, the Boston Celtics have very little lead.

In the current NBA, the Boston Celtics are the leader with a 27-4 record, but the Grizzlies, who are second in the East, also have a 27-5 record, the Wizards, who are third in the East, are 28-6, plus the Kings and Spurs in the West are both 27-6, it can be said that the Boston Celtics have now lost the absolute advantage at the beginning of the season, when the Wizards were able to put pressure on the Celtics. Other teams have been left behind by the Celtics, but this time is different. If the Boston Celtics do have a slump due to schedule or player fitness, they are likely to lose their No. 1 spot in the league. Even the rankings will fall even worse. So as the two die-hard staff members of the Boston Celtics, although this matter is not in their charge, it is impossible not to worry.

'There's been a lot of pressure on the team lately, but the most dangerous part of our season is behind us and it's no problem for us to take our destiny into our hands in the future. Last year we lost the first place in the regular season and this year we have to get it back, that's our biggest goal at the moment, and I think as long as we handle it right, it's fine."

Zhuang Fei looked at a group of Celtic executives in front of him who were frowning and said with a smile. At this time, these people are under a lot of pressure, and he himself is the same, after defeating the Lakers in the Christmas game, plus beating the Grizzlies a month ago, although that game broke out a lot of things that should not have happened, but even before the outbreak of that incident, the Boston Celtics were suppressing the Grizzlies, although one game can't say much, but there is no doubt that the Boston Celtics are no worse than the defending champions now. It can be said that the Boston Celtics have become the biggest hot team this season, and in this kind of public criticism, many people are staring at this team in anticipation of a bite, and in the NBA, the league's frontrunners and followers can be said to be completely impossible.

After hearing Zhuang Fei's comfort, Danny Anji and Stephen Green, who were originally a little nervous, also relaxed a little, for them, as long as the person in front of them can handle things easily, they will naturally follow the relaxation, although Danny Anji and Zhuang Fei have not worked together for a long time. But it was also greatly influenced by Zhuang Fei.

"Coach, Jackson's game is not very good right now, should we make a separate training schedule for him?" Stephen Green looked at Zhuang Fei and said with some concern.

From today onwards, Stephen Jackson's ban is over, although this guard has been training with Boston Celtics players, and his training volume is much larger than others, it can be said that Zhuang Fei had the idea to keep Jackson's game state in the past, but there is no doubt that the impact on him without playing for a month must be great, in the NBA, at this time, most teams and players have passed the beginning of the season to rise in form, and have reached the peak of the middle of the season, With no games for half a month, Jackson will definitely be pulled away by the rest of the Boston Celtics in terms of the feeling of the game, there is no doubt about that.

"You can arrange this, try to make his training stronger and bigger, and then we will slowly let him regain the same feeling of competition as everyone else through the game" Finally, Zhuang Fei thought about it and said to Steve Green, and Steve nodded after listening, obviously this is also a method that he recognizes.

"Zhuang, now we can talk about the Kobe trade, you know, Phil Jackson has been urging a lot of times now, and it looks like we're going to have to give him an answer today."

After seeing Zhuang Fei finish arranging Stephen Green, Danny Angie, deputy general manager of the Boston Celtics, asked Zhuang Fei helplessly, Zhuang Fei has been leading the team away from home in recent days, so he spoke directly to Lakers head coach Phil Jackson, from the content of the conversation in the past few days, the Lakers head coach's patience seems to be gone, and he is also very resolute to give the Boston Celtics a date.

Originally, Zhuang Fei's expression had relaxed a little after dealing with Jackson's affairs, but after hearing Danny Anji's words, Zhuang Fei's expression changed again, and after Danny Anji finished speaking, Steve Green and Carl, the team's director of operations, also looked at Zhuang Fei expectantly. Obviously, at this time, these people are looking forward to what Zhuang Fei's decision is, and Zhuang Fei's choice is also very difficult for them.

Kobe Bryant is already a top star in the league, especially after last month's crazy performance, and Arenas of the Boston Celtics is now on the road to a top star, although the guard is now very good, and even the only substitute player in the league who can average 20 points per game, but even so, this guard is still a long way from Kobe. So for the Boston Celtics, many people up and down are very supportive of this deal.

In the NBA, the first common sense of all people is not to pick players because of team tactics. It's about the team's tactics to develop the tactics, which can be said to be the essential difference between the NBA and the NCAA. In the NBA, players decide tactics, not tactics determine players, and in this case, if the Boston Celtics get Kobe Bryant and Maddy to form a super backcourt duo, then even the current team's tactics are completely overthrown.

Of course. These are Danny Anji's thoughts, they think that it is okay to reorganize the team's tactical system even for Kobe, but Zhuang Fei's idea is not like this, Zhuang Fei knows. Even if you get Kobe Bryant, you don't need to reformulate your tactics, Maddie and Arenas can't coexist, it doesn't mean that Maddie and Kobe can't coexist.

One of the big reasons why Maddie and Arenas can't coexist is that Arenas needs to attack and needs a lot of offensive opportunities, but although the current Arenas offense is very strong, it is not as good as Maddie, in this case, Zhuang Fei cannot sacrifice Maddie's offense to meet Arenas' wishes, because sacrificing a stronger offense will reduce the team's offensive efficiency, and now Arenas' ability has reached 90, but it is not at all possible to become the first main attack point of a championship team.

Unlike Arenas, Kobe Bryant can. Kobe Bryant can now become the main point of attack of a championship team, and it is also the first main point of attack, if he can, Zhuang Fei can completely sacrifice Maddy's offense, let Maddy take more organizational responsibility, and let Kobe Bryant go to completely appear as a sharp knife figure, in this case, the Boston Celtics can still maintain the stability of the tactical and tactical system, and the Celtics only need to put James Posey on the bench, so that the strength of the Celtics will not decline. Of course, it won't go up much either.

This is the reason why Zhuang Fei has been hesitating, because the strength of the Boston Celtics who get Kobe Bryant will not rise too much, after Kobe Bryant comes, the Boston Celtics will be stronger, but the bench will be weakened, and if the Lakers get Arenas and Kirilenko, then the strength will immediately change qualitatively, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for the league to have a team to stop them. If Arenas really wants to be in the starting lineup, then Zhuang Fei has to make a decision.

Now Zhuang Fei's office is very quiet, everyone is looking at Zhuang Fei, and at this time Zhuang Fei is thinking, this is indeed a thing that needs to be thought about very carefully, and at this time, the door of Zhuang Fei's office is pushed open, and the team's substitute player Arenas is standing outside the door, although the team is on holiday this morning, but Arenas is extremely anxious, today he hopes to get the head coach to calm his anxious heart.

When Arenas appeared at the door, the group of Boston Celtics executives in the office were all shocked, and then out of Zhuang Fei, Stephen Green and Danny Angie They also sighed and left after Arenas appeared at the door, and then left the office to Zhuang Fei and Arenas

Now Arenas's face is very uneasy, and under Zhuang Fei's instructions, the Boston Celtics substitute guard sat down at Zhuang Fei's desk with some restraint, at this time, this usually brave and courageous scorer on the court at this time completely lost that momentum, looking at this somewhat abnormal team substitute guard Zhuang Fei also smiled and shook his head.

"Gilbert, you're here today to force me?" Zhuang Fei looked at his beloved general and said with a smile on his face, and Arenas, who heard Zhuang Fei's words at this time, couldn't be silent anymore, and quickly shook his head to say no.

"No, that's not the case" Arenas continued with some bitterness, "Coach, I just feel that I am getting stronger and stronger now, but the game is getting harder and harder"

"Oh?" Zhuang Fei was a little stunned after hearing Arenas's answer, didn't this substitute defender come to seek the main position? When he thought of this, Zhuang Fei was a little puzzled.

"Coach, I now find that I need to take care of more and more relationships on the court, sometimes I can attack, but in the end I will give up my opportunity to attack because of my teammates, especially when I have too many overlaps with Tracy recently, this is not the basketball I want" When Arenas plucked up the courage to say what he thought in his heart, Zhuang Fei was stunned.

When a player's strength increases, they will naturally have more things to do on the field, but it is very understandable that these players will be constrained because of the team's fixed tactical system.

"Is that it?" Zhuang Fei asked again in confusion after being stunned for a while, and at this time, the Boston Celtics guard nodded again.

"And what about the starting positions?" After Arenas nodded, Zhuang Fei looked at Arenas again, and at this time the defender was silent, his face was also a little hesitant, and finally seemed to pluck up the courage to look at Zhuang Fei again and said.

"It would be best if the coach could get me into the main lineup," Arenas shook his head and continued: "But I absolutely believe in all the decisions of the coach, since the coach thinks that I can't get into the starting lineup, there is a reason, maybe because my strength is not enough, since Stephen Jackson is willing to sacrifice himself, I can too, but I still believe that I will impress the coach with my own strength in the future."

After Arenas finished speaking, he also looked at Zhuang Fei with a firm face, and at this time, Zhuang Fei nodded secretly.

"Gilbert, now I can give you a promise, when you appear on the court, you have the absolute right to fire, you don't need to restrain your desire to attack for others, if you think you can attack, you don't have to look at anyone's face, including Maddie, you have this right from today onwards"

When Zhuang Fei finished saying this, the backup guard of the Boston Celtics was directly stunned, and then couldn't say a word.

The meaning of the head coach's words is already obvious, even if he is not very smart, he can fully understand what this sentence means, this is the NBA legend, unlimited firing rights, and it is also one of the highest privileges that a team can give to players.

When Arenas left Zhuang Fei's office, his head was very confused, while Zhuang Fei, who was sitting in the office, had a very good face. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
