: Seven hundred and eighty-four: Steve Kerr's plan

  The next day, the headlines of the major sports media were all photos of Grizzlies players celebrating on the court.
  Link's super lore in the last 14 seconds, continued this season after he pulled the bar after the defense of the Big Three and defeated the Thunder, once again received the treatment of the TV station scrolling.
   Another particularly popular photo is Popovich’s lonely expression in an interview at a press conference after the game.
  This calendar comes from an old man full of letters, who showed fatigue after the defeat in this game.
  This one-point loss seems to be more destructive than the ten-point loss in the first game.
  The Spurs have achieved the ultimate, and Danny Green has also burst out his full strength.
  But in the end, all these efforts came to naught in the last 14 seconds. I have to say that it is indeed a brutal blow.
  Link's 14-second shot, also made the series total score 2-0.
   Generally speaking, people agree that a team lagging 3-0 is the end. But in fact, the situation behind 0 to 2 is not much better.
  Throughout the history of NBA, the probability of a 0 to 2 turnaround is only 6. In the history of the Spurs, there have been a total of 12 0-2 lagging situations, of which 11 times the Spurs were eventually eliminated, and the loss rate was as high as 917!
  The only time the Spurs made a comeback when they fell behind 0-2 was in the 07-08 season. That season, the defending champion Spurs ran into big trouble in the Western Conference semifinals. They met the Hornets who had just risen because of Paul. The Spurs lost 19 and 18 points in the first two games, both of which were big losses.
  As a result, after arriving at home, the Spurs turned the tide and used the Hornets' own instability and lack of experience to launch a Jedi counterattack.
  Finally, the tenacious Spurs dragged the series to the tiebreaker. In the tiebreaker, the Lao Lao Spurs had the last laugh, defeating the Hornets by 9 points, and advanced to the Western Conference finals without any risk.
  This is the only 0-2 record in the history of the Spurs.
  But now, the situation is completely different from then. The Grizzlies are not the Hornets, and no one thinks that the Hornets in the 07-08 season can be compared with the 74 wins against the Grizzlies.
  At that time, the "Queen Bee" Paul was only in the third grade and was not yet mature enough. Moreover, the Hornets' hard power is completely incomparable to the Grizzlies. Although the Hornets were second in the Western Conference that year, they only won 56.
  56 wins are put into this season, even the top four in the West can not make it.
   Therefore, the outside world almost agreed that the San Antonio Spurs are over. Their failure is already a certainty.
  Maybe the Spurs can win back a city at home and find a bit of face. But people in the 90s believe that the Grizzlies will knock the Spurs out of the game at most 6 games.
  It seems that the Spurs only lost 1 point to the Grizzlies in the last game, as if things were not that serious. The Spurs would have won the last goal if Link hadn't shot it early.
  But everyone knows that the second game is already all the Spurs can use. In this way, they can't take the Grizzlies cleanly, and they won't get any chances afterwards.
  After all, the Spurs cannot play so well in every game. But the Grizzlies can easily do better than the second game.
  In the second game of the series, Link made only 2 of 9 three-pointers. Here, even if Link makes two more three-pointers, the game will not be so anxious.
  Link's three-pointer has to be more accurate than the second game. Isn't this easy? After all, Link rarely has such a tough time throughout the season.
  So, the Grizzlies almost eat the Spurs to death. Even many local San Antonio fans recognize this, causing many fans to lose the enthusiasm to watch the game.
  And this finally made the Spurs Finals tickets experience an unprecedented price cut!
  This is the first time the world has realized that San Antonio’s basketball may really be the time to change its dynasty. The glory that belongs to the gdp is already in the past.
  Before that, someone had already realized the Spurs' old attitude and also realized that a new storm was about to blow away in the league.
  The Grizzlies' powers of one big and four small ones were undoubtedly revealed in the Western Conference Finals. Facts have proved that the league has completely entered an era of smaller, faster, and farther shots from the basket!
  Who can make the small lineup to the extreme, whoever can win!
  Steve Kerr believed his own judgment, so he sat here, in the office of Warriors general manager Bob Myers.
"I'm glad we can reach an agreement, Steve. I believe that our cooperation can create brilliance." Miles happily put away the contract, looking at the man who was sitting across from him on the platform explaining the game a month ago. Guys.
  Think about what happened in the past month, but it was actually quite unexpected.
  After the regular season, those teams that did not enter the playoffs, naturally, immediately began to prepare for the transformation of the team. The Knicks, who have superstars like Anthony but failed to make the playoffs, are the first team to hope to change.
   Three new officials took office. "Zen Master" Phil Jackson became the general manager of the Knicks in March and has been planning to transform the team. The first thing Jackson did when he came to the Knicks was to move his triangle offensive system to New York!
  To play the triangle offense, Jackson hopes to find a coach who really masters the triangle offense. In the past few years, many coaches who claim to be proficient in triangle offense have overturned. But in Jackson's eyes, there is a person who can really reproduce the triangle offense.
  He is Jackson’s former lover Steve Cole!
  Although Cole has retired for a long time, and most of the time after retiring, he worked in the TV station. But during the time when the Suns was general manager, Kerr still left some reputation in the league.
  Everyone knows that Cole is a basketball player. His understanding of the basketball game is no less than that of the people and guys who are now head coaches.
  After learning that Cole did want to join the head coaching industry, Phil Jackson decisively fired the original coach Mike Woodson. Once the regular season ended, he contacted Cole.
  And, Jackson did not prepare any plan b. From beginning to end, his goal was only Cole.
  If Kerr does not come, the Knicks will not have a head coach, not even a candidate. But the "Zen Master" firmly believes that with his personal relationship with Cole, Cole cannot refuse!
  What’s more, the Knicks’ price tag of 20 million for 4 years is already a high salary in the head coaching industry.
  Everyone in the outside world has the same idea as the "Zen Master". Everyone thinks that Cole joining the Knicks is a certainty. After all, he is the successor to the triangle offensive appointed by the Zen Master.
  However, Kerr unexpectedly rejected the Knicks and mentor Jackson, and quickly signed the Golden State Warriors!
  Of course, people still don’t know about the signing of Cole and the Warriors, because the contract has just been signed. However, it is estimated that in an hour, the Warriors will officially announce the result.
  Bob Myers was also a little surprised to be able to sign for Cole. After Miles fired his former coach Mark Jackson, the first goal was originally Stan Van Gundy.
   Little did they know that the Pistons actually let Van Gundy be the head coach and president of basketball affairs, and immediately caught Van Gundy over.
  At this time, Miles tentatively contacted Cole. It's just that he didn't expect that Cole quickly agreed to meet. And today, a week later, I signed a contract with the Warriors directly!
  Yes, "Zen Master" has been in contact with Cole for a month. The Warriors and Cole have only been in contact for a week!
  So, looking back now, Miles finds it incredible. Cole and the Warriors, at first they couldn't fight together. But now, they have signed a contract.
  "Can I ask you a question? Steve." After the signing, Miles couldn't help it. He wanted to know why Cole rejected the Knicks and chose the Warriors.
   "Do you want to ask me why I chose you?" Cole guessed Miles' doubts.
  Myers nodded slightly.
   "It's very simple, because I don't want to, and it's impossible to play a triangle offense. I remember I told you when I communicated before, I want to build a system according to their own thoughts in the Warriors, instead of playing a triangle offense."
   "Really it's that simple?" Cole's answer surprised Miles. At first he thought that the real reason for Cole's rejection of New York was because he had an unknown and bad relationship with the "Zen Master" and the Knicks.
  But unexpectedly, Cole’s choice of the Warriors was really the reason for his tactical philosophy!
  From the outside world, the Warriors are actually more suitable for triangle offense than the Knicks.
  The Warriors’ two big men, Bogut and David Lee, are both very good at passing and have certain offensive capabilities. Harrison Barnes also has a strong passing ability and can become an organization forward ~EbookFREE.me~ to play the role of Scott Pippen. These configurations are not available to the Knicks.
   But even so, Kerr really does not seem to have any intention of playing a triangle offense.
"It's that simple. The triangle offense is outdated, Miles. I don't know if you have watched the Grizzlies and Spurs series. On the surface, they are as strong as ever, no surprise. But in fact, they have proven. A new era has arrived. Next season, I hope to play a small lineup in the Warriors. I have studied that there is no team in the league that is more suitable for a small lineup than the Warriors! I believe that according to my thinking, the team will welcome the new season Come qualitatively change!"
  Looking at Cole, who is full of confidence, Miles is increasingly looking forward to next season.
  A coach who refuses the triangle offense and wants to build a system according to his own ideas. It sounds more reliable than the so-called "triangular offensive successors".
  "Then, do you have any suggestions for signing this summer?" Miles continued to ask. Now that he has signed the contract, he certainly hopes that Cole will start working as soon as possible.
"If we can, I hope that we can win Andre Iguodala this summer. His contract with the Grizzlies ends this summer, and the Grizzlies need to renew Link this summer, which is definitely not financially satisfying. Dre. Believe me, his joining will make us succeed more quickly." Cole answered without hesitation. He had all the plans already in his mind.
  Choosing warriors is more than just a whim.
