Su Chen picked up the phone and prepared to dial Iguodala's number.

With the whole team resting, Iguodala was asked to train alone, and I don't know if Iguodala has any emotions.

"Coach, isn't it a holiday today?"

Iguodala's voice came from the other end of the line.

"Well, change your plan, practice a little more."

Su Chen said to Iguodala.

"Okay, I see, I'll come to the arena."

Iguodala didn't think much of it when he heard that it was the team's plan.

Iguodala is still looking forward to the big stage of the Finals, and the team is not in the offseason yet, and it is not the time to relax.

Inside the Timberwolves training arena.

In addition to Iguodala, there are also trainers from the Timberwolves team who have also come to the arena.

"What about the coaches? Didn't you say you had to practice? ”

Iguodala looked at the stadium and there were some team workers such as cleaners and maintenance workers in addition to the two of them today.

"Su called and told me to come to the stadium quickly, but he didn't say anything specific."

The trainer was bald, and he said helplessly.

Iguodala stayed in the stadium with the bald trainer, and after waiting for a while, Iguodala picked up his mobile phone and planned to call Su Chen.

However, Iguodala's phone had not yet been dialed, and Su Chen had already walked in through the passage.

"You're so early."

Su Chen said to the two of them with a smile.

"Coach, haven't the rest of them come yet?"

Iguodala asked, a little confused.

He also thought that Su Chen had notified him too early, and then the time to notify others was not so early.

"It's all right, just the three of us."

Su Chen replied with a smile.

Iguodala was stunned.

"Mean, just me train?"

Iguodala reacted.

Su Chen is the head coach, and then the bald head is the trainer, and he is the only player here.

It's equivalent to the two of them, staring at him to practice alone.

What is this?

"Why, I'm not happy to open a small stove for you."

Su Chen smiled.

"Huh?"

Iguodala was a little confused.

"Next up against the Heat, they're a regular in the Finals, and the most important player on their team is James."

Su Chen didn't care that Iguodala was still blindfolded, and said to Iguodala.

Iguodala nodded, yes.

But what does this have to do with him coming to the stadium alone to train today?

"I looked at our squad this morning and it still felt like you were the best person to limit James."

Su Chen continued.

Iguodala felt relieved when he heard that he had such a high status in the coach's heart.

There was still some unpleasant emotion, but it was swept away all of a sudden.

"So I'm going to look at how extreme you are in your training and that's important for how I develop my defensive strategy."

"You're going to be a key figure in this series, and you're going to be able to make a difference in the outcome of this series, and it's not very difficult to defend James with a reasonable tactical response."

Su Chen continued to say to Iguodala.

Seeing that Iguodala was stunned by what he said, Su Chen smiled.

"If you can defend James, then you are the biggest contributor, and I think those guys who choose FMVP will also focus on it."

Su Chen looked at Iguodala with a smile and said.

Although it is to rely on the system to improve Iguodala's strength, it doesn't cost money to draw cakes, and painting cakes for Iguodala can also make him work harder to defend James.

Moreover, Iguodala's FMVP was originally won when defending James, which was originally Iguodala's award.

Not to mention painting cakes, Iguodala has to thank him.

"Thank you, coach, let's get started!"

Iguodala was stunned by Su Chen.

After hearing that Su Chen would give him a great tactical position, and even be able to touch the FMVP award, Iguodala couldn't hold back his excitement.

Iguodala's idol is Penny Hardaway, and his style of play is also leaning on Hardaway.

FMVP is an honor that his idol has not won, and now that he has this opportunity to get it, he is naturally very excited.

And Iguodala really thinks she can get it.

The Timberwolves' twin stars are still a little immature, and if they are not efficient enough on the offensive end, it will still be difficult to win FMVP.

James is the most important person in the Heat, and the coach is giving him a chance, if he can prevent James, then he has a good chance in this FMVP.

While it's hard to defend James, the coach also said that he can set a helpful focus in terms of tactical direction.

The tactical ability that Su Chen showed, Iguodala could trust.

Su Chen said so, so naturally someone would help to flank and defend James.

With his understanding of Su Chen throughout the regular season and playoffs, the ability he will show next should greatly determine what kind of strategy Su Chen adopts.

"Mark, let's get started."

Su Chen said to the bald trainer.

The bald trainer was called Mark.

"Okay, I see."

Bald trainer Mark nodded.

Although he worked overtime today, it is overtime, and the team will pay him extra.

And Mark also heard Su Chen's blow just now.

If Iguodala can really defend James in the Finals, then he can say that he has trained before the game to fight James.

There are still a lot of staff in the stadium today, and he can be regarded as a witness when he spreads this matter.

If it gets out, then his worth will rise.

If the Timberwolves don't give him a salary increase next season, there will be other teams that will pay high salaries to poach him.

It's like Milosevic was Jokic's coach, and when this player becomes famous, his value will rise.

Mark is also full of energy at this time.

There was no need for Su Chen to urge them, the two had already directly started the confrontation training, and both of them worked hard.

In the past, these trainers received high salaries, but when they trained, they could only say that they didn't fish, and they couldn't mention how hard they worked.

But Mark was on fire, sparing no effort at all.

This made Su Chen stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted to what Mark thought.

"Painting bread for Iguodala to eat, this Mark also eats deliciously, should I change careers and become a capitalist?"

Su Chen was suspicious of himself.

If you are so talented as a capitalist, you will retire and become a capitalist after the basketball coach has made a lot of money.

When the two were training, Su Chen was not idle.

In addition to using the skill of concentrated training on Iguodala, he also observed Iguodala's performance under confrontation.

Although the previous words were to draw a pie for Iguodala, he did need to develop a strategy for Iguodala to defend James.

Iguodala improved his resistance by concentrating on training this skill, and Su Chen would also watch Iguodala's ability to fine-tune his strategy.

For example, the frequency of bag clamp assistance, the frequency of changing defenses, the frequency of consumption, and so on.

After about an hour of training.

[After the training is completed, the opponent ability of the player Andre Iguodala has increased, which will continue until the end of the next official match.] 】

A system chime came.

However, Su Chen didn't stop it, because at this time, the bald Mark and Iguodala were training hotly, and Su Chen simply didn't bother them.

Su Chen asked the staff to bring the working meal, and he sat on a chair while eating, watching the performance of the two people.

The finals are getting closer.

All kinds of news about the Timberwolves and the Heat are flying everywhere.

In addition to the normal news, there are also pheasant news from some grapevine sources.

Some questions about the Heat's locker room, and some questions about the Timberwolves' interior.

The contradictions in the Heat locker room actually existed last season, but the team is attacking the championship this season, and now the team is winning, and these contradictions have been suppressed.

As for the internal problems of the Timberwolves, it is actually about Su Chen.

There is a grapevine that a staff member who did not want to be named said that the early contract extension between the Timberwolves and Su Chen was denied.

After the Timberwolves reached the Finals, the whole Timberwolves team was very satisfied, especially the owner Taylor directly offered Su Chen a multi-year high-salary contract.

It is said that this contract may be the highest contract amount in the league now, and at the same time, Su Chen's concurrent position as general manager has not changed.

It can be said that if Su Chen accepts this contract, the Timberwolves will be Su Chen's territory.

Su Chen's prestige in the Timberwolves will reach a peak.

Not to mention how many championships the Timberwolves won, as long as they enter the playoffs in a row, they will reach the finals in the future.

If he can win a championship, Su Chen can become a legendary coach in the history of the Timberwolves.

The status is like Popovich in the Spurs, and because Su Chen also controls the management power, it is higher than Popovich's position in the Spurs.

With such a contract, Su Chen seemed to have rejected it directly.

can refuse such a sincere contract from the Timberwolves, no matter how Su Chen thinks about it, it seems that he does not plan to stay with the Timberwolves.

Although Su Chen seemed to refuse on the grounds that he still had to fight in the finals.

However, this kind of sincere contract, even if it is not signed in advance now, can be rejected in another way instead of outright.

Even after this news was exposed, according to some team executives in the league, there were already some rebuilding teams interested in Su Chen.

It's just that the finals are still going on, and Su Chen has not communicated with people from other teams.

But judging from the current situation, the Timberwolves should not be the team that Su Chen wants to continue coaching.

Regardless, the game is still ongoing.

It's June.

The finals are finally about to start.

Minnesota.

Target Center Arena.

For a city that has never played a Grand Finals and has never experienced a Grand Finals, this first game has a special meaning for the city's fans.

Needless to say, the stadium was full.

Not only are all the seats sold out, but the corridor tickets are sold out.

At the same time, outside the big screen in the square outside the arena, there was also a group of Timberwolves fans, watching the game from the sidelines.

For the cold city of Minnesota, tonight is a hot time in Minnesota.

Minnesota, which is not densely populated, is also rarely crowded to the point of denseness.

Although the fans have also heard some news about Su Chen and the team.

But either way, now is not the time to say this, the Timberwolves have more important things to do right now.

Entering the finals for the first time, they have even greater ambitions, that is, the championship.

Su Chen is the one who led this team to the finals for the first time, and no matter what decision Su Chen makes, Timberwolves fans can't say anything.

Tonight's game is open for early entry.

Entering the Finals for the first time, the Timberwolves' entrance ceremony was very grand.

At each of the Timberwolves' arenas, the live DJ gave a short introduction when they were on the pitch.

The substitutes, including Beverley and Muscala, were all embellished by the DJ with some cool words.

At the same time, on the big screen above the stadium, their highlight short videos were also edited, and various wonderful operations were also edited.

Although the introduction is more fancy, the Timberwolves players have more serious expressions at this time.

Whether they are rookies or veterans, they now have a greater responsibility, which is to win the championship!

With Giannis Antetokounmpo entering, the players of the entire Timberwolves directly hugged each other and fought.

In this game, they need to be more united.

Compared with the nervousness of the players, Su Chen was much more relaxed.

He only experienced the Finals last season, and the Heat themselves are not as strong as the Spurs.
