Chapter 537: Bobo Takes Turn? excuse-me?
At this time, Jiang Haoran was still sleeping at home, and he didn't know that in South Korea, there were two women who made their own decisions because of him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
……
On March 7, the Spurs practiced as usual, and this time Aldridge and Danny Green both learned to be well-behaved, first asking the assistant coaches if they might be rotated, otherwise it would not be a good thing to be rotated inexplicably.
Every professional player is well prepared before they go on the pitch, and if they don't, they will do less of it, and some players will even choose not to shower the day before because they think that the bandages on their ankles during training are the most comfortable and will allow them to be at their best in tomorrow's game.
"Tomorrow all hands are out, everyone is ready." Popovich also seemed a little sorry for the temporary decision to keep Ade and Green out of the last game, so he answered without waiting for the assistant coach to answer Huang Amma.
"Hmm." Green nodded, he was a player who really needed to play to get a feel, and in '14, he had a fairy tale of 28 three-pointers in the Finals.
Bonner and Duncan both frowned, and to be honest, they didn't really want to go to that steamy part of Indiana.
As veterans of the league, they are well aware of the environment in various places, especially David West, who came from Indiana at the beginning of the season.
Compared to the dryness of Texas, Indiana in the east is a particularly heavy place of moisture, with more than half of the year snowing, and the Pacers have had many games postponed due to blizzards.
David West had finally adapted to the dry winds of the Holy City, and now he felt the wet snow of Indiana, but he didn't want to go much......
Today's daily shooting training, this time the opponent is seventh in the East, as long as the hand is not too bad, there is basically no problem in winning the game.
It's just that I don't know why, Coach Bobozorgevich disappeared when he boarded the plane in the afternoon, what is the situation?
Jiang Haoran asked assistant coach Becky Harmon, and Coach Harmon said that Bobo had something at home and might catch the next flight.
Until seven o'clock in the evening, when the Spurs arrived in Indiana, the Spurs officially came with a piece of news that made the players stunned:
"Coach Gregg Popovich will miss the next two games for personal reasons."
“what?” Bobo is not coming? Duncan jumped up first, he didn't want to come to the wet Indiana, he didn't expect Bobo to come either, it was really heavenly.
“excuse-me? Is this a managerial rotation? "This makes Jiang Haoran believe that there is something wrong with Old Man Bobo, he doesn't believe it, because he scolded him for being too slow in the morning, and he won't be in such a hurry if there is a situation...... The head coach gave himself a few days off, which was also the first time Jiang Haoran had seen him since he entered the NBA league.
But look at the schedule and understand, because the next is two consecutive visitors, first in Indiana and then to Minnesota, I thought that the players would be rested in rotation, but it turned out that it was he who took turns to rest, and it is estimated that the old man is now drinking red wine leisurely at home.
The team is now accumulating strength for the playoffs, and the old man has also given himself a vacation, Jiang Haoran raised his hands in agreement, he has felt several times that Bobo has been standing up for too long, he is almost 70 years old, and he should sit quietly like a Zen master.
The players use their bodies, the coaches hurt their brains, not to mention a coach with a bit of a temper like Bobo, these two games are a rare break in the long season for him.
However, soon after Jiang Haoran and the others learned the news, Becky Harmon explained that Popovich was really using this time to prepare for a physical examination, not to mention that the players have physical examinations every week, but Popovich has not done it once, and he is also going to do a check-up, and then take good care of his body.
This made Duncan change his attitude in an instant, no longer like a joke, but sent a message to Popovich to have a good rest, with a strong sense of mentorship and apprenticeship, Jiang Haoran thought of a sentence: "I am not born when you are born, and I am old when you are born." ”
"It's really wet." Jiang Haoran went to soak in an outdoor hot spring, next to the piled snow, his body was very warm, and his head was stained with a layer of frost, and when he came out, he almost froze stupidly......
And West, who has rough skin and thick meat, came out directly naked and hung until it flew up.
At around nine o'clock, due to rumors of disturbance from the outside world, Paul Hank, the representative of the Spurs press side, posted a tweet: "Coach Bobo is in a medical condition at home, don't worry, Messina will temporarily act as coach in Bobo's absence for these two games." ”
On March 8, major media outlets began to report on the promotion of Popovich's rotation.
ESPN's official website: Popovich will miss the Spurs' game against the Pacers today and the next game away against the Timberwolves.
And the T.N.T reporter who was on the scene came the news from the scene: Popovich did not appear in the Spurs' shooting practice this morning, and the Spurs' morning training was presided over by head assistant coach Ettore Messina, and in the two games in Bobo's absence, the team's assistant coach Messina will also act as the head coach on an interim basis.
MBC interviewed Jiang Haoran, "This will not change anything," Jiang Haoran said when talking about Popovich's two games, "We have a lot of veterans in the team, so we will not deviate from the previous track because Bobo is not there." We're going to keep defending well and move the ball around every attacking round. ”
Tencent Sports Report: It is not clear what the specific medical condition of Bobo's family is, but Spurs fans, who have always had big brains, may speculate whether this is the old man taking advantage of the approaching final stage of the regular season to find a reason to rest for himself. After all, after these two away games, Spurs will return to their home stadium again and usher in a wave of five consecutive home games. Even the sudden migraine break of LaMarcus Aldridge in the last game against the Kings, Spurs fans have joked that it was Bobo who made Ade hurt.
The news published by Hupu Sports is very pertinent, and they are all old fans: before there is definite news, it cannot be said that the old man is just looking for an excuse to take a break. Popovich also took two games off in the regular season last season, citing "minor surgery" at the time. But after the season, the old man himself revealed that he had undergone two heart surgeries in the middle of the season and even had the idea of quitting for a while, which made many Spurs fans really distressed for a while. In any case, I hope that the old man and his family will be well. ”
