Not sure what Hunter and the others were thinking, Deng Fang said: "The press conference is postponed, at least until the player transactions are completed."
"Especially about my use of traditional Chinese medicine to treat diseases, it must be kept secret and cannot be spread before the transaction."
Tim nodded in agreement.
Some players are injured, and some players are at risk of injury.
Because of this, the opposing team will agree to make a deal.
If people knew about Deng Fang's treatment, the transaction would be much more difficult.
If you can’t get better yourself, you can’t let others get better either!
In other words, as long as others have a hard time, then you will have a good time.
"The transaction will be carried out as soon as possible. In addition, the contracts of several players can be re-signed." Deng Fang said: "Prince's contract can be extended to four years, Laga Bell's contract can be extended to three years, and Azubuike's contract can be extended to four years."
The contract has also been extended to four years."
Historically, the Warriors have not made the playoffs in three years, so Deng Fang can use these three players for at least three years.
In the fourth year, since it is a cheap expiring contract, it is also easy to deal with.
Tim nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll make a call right away."
Deng Fang breathed a sigh of relief.
Only when you have the players you want can you lead your team to victory.
Without good players, no coach can do it.
Players are all thorns in the side, and if they don't listen to the coach, it will be useless no matter how good the coach's tactical design is.
By showing off his skills, Tim and others can see how powerful he is, and then they will really listen to his suggestions.
Now it’s time to look at your own leadership skills.
Deng Fang's problem is that he has never really been a coach. He is a keyboard warrior who can only talk on paper.
The only advantage is that I watch a lot of football and know a lot.
However, you still have to learn how to lead a team.
"If there are any problems during the transaction, we will communicate at any time." Deng Fang said: "In addition, in order to get familiar with the team's players as soon as possible, I have to start working. Take me to the video analysis room."
"The season is over, what are you going to do?" Hunter asked.
"Understand the characteristics of the players!" Deng Fang said: "I am not very familiar with many players. It will always be beneficial to read more about their information."
Deng Fang’s inner thoughts were: I don’t even know how to lead a team, how can I do it if I don’t learn?!
A new head coach should always know more about his players.
It seems that Deng Fang is very serious and dedicated.
No one would refuse Deng Fang's request.
A hard-working and dedicated colleague will never cause resentment.
Tim sent someone to take Deng Fang to the team's video analysis room.
Each NBA team has its own video analysis room, as well as a dedicated video analysis room.
And this work is still very important.
Heat head coach Spoelstra worked his way up from the team's video editor.
To put it nicely, they are called video analysts, but to put it bluntly, they are video editors.
The common tactics of each team, the technical characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of important players, and the technical problems and growth of the players on your own team all require specialized people to edit, analyze and summarize.
After all these things are done, a report is made and handed to the coaching staff, who then analyzes and studies it, and finally the head coach makes the final decision.
Therefore, this step is very important.
This step is equivalent to intelligence analysis during war.
Without real and detailed intelligence, you can imagine how difficult it is to win a war.
Generally speaking, head coaches rarely watch videos to analyze problems in person.
After all, it takes a lot of time.
Some head coaches just put forward their own requirements and let their people do it.
Only some particularly dedicated coaches will watch the tape in person.
For example, Thibodeau, Van Gundy Jr. and others.
Of course, once the team encounters a problem or reaches a critical moment in preparing for the playoffs, everyone on the team will get together to watch the video and discuss it.
As a novice coach, the first thing Deng Fang has to do now is make up lessons.
Classes in all aspects.
There are many things in team training that he does not need to do personally.
But as a head coach, you must at least know the training process and who should do what.
Although they watch a lot of football, average fans still don’t understand the team’s internal training.
Deng Fang stayed in the video analysis room for several days.
In addition to eating, Deng Fang spent time in the video room watching videos.
It has to be said that with the support of a large amount of funds, the NBA's video material is still very rich.
Deng Fang mainly watches the team’s training videos.
There are very few videos of the complete training process, but there are still some.
This was taken to check and identify specific issues in training.
Deng Fang didn't need much.
After picking out one of the complete videos and watching it several times, and then writing down the key steps, Deng Fang had an idea.
After watching this, Deng Fang spent a few days studying videos of each team's common tactics.
These videos have detailed information notes, such as horns, diamonds, pick-and-roll cuts, etc.
In order to solve some tactical analysis and detail processing that he did not understand, Deng Fang bought a lot of relevant books from the Internet and studied them carefully when he got home.
As a senior fan, Deng Fang still knows a little about NBA court tactics.
Now that he has the opportunity to conduct in-depth systematic research, Deng Fang enjoys it even though it is very tiring.
As a time traveler from later generations, Deng Fang has an advantage, that is, he knows the general trend and the later development of many players.
Watching these videos with this advantage, Deng Fang's knowledge of basketball techniques and tactics increased rapidly.
In addition, Deng Fang also studied the technical characteristics analysis videos of most players in the league.
Deng Fang is still very familiar with the technical characteristics of the league's first-line stars.
But Deng Fang only has a rough idea of the role players of some mid- and lower-tier teams.
After watching these summarized and compiled videos, Deng Fang has a much deeper understanding of NBA players.
Especially for the players on his own team, Deng Fang spent more time studying their videos and analyzing their technical characteristics.
After watching videos and studying for more than ten days, Deng Fang became more and more confident.
…
While Deng Fang was studying intensely, the NBA 08-09 season finals was also in full swing.
The two sides in this year's finals are the Magic, led by Howard Howard, and the Lakers, led by Kobe Bryant.
The Magic entered the playoffs this year as the third seed in the Eastern Conference, and eventually defeated the 76ers, Celtics and Cavaliers to reach the Finals.
The Lakers defeated the Jazz, Rockets and Nuggets, and finally reached the finals.
Among them, the one that impressed Deng Fang the most was the game between the Lakers and Rockets.
It was during this year that, with Tracy McGrady absent, Yao Ming led the Rockets to break through the so-called "first round curse" of being eliminated in the first round of the playoffs for many consecutive years.
However, with about 5 minutes left in the fourth quarter of Game 1 of the series against the Lakers, Kobe accidentally collided with Yao Ming during an offense, and Yao Ming fell to the ground due to a heavy blow to his knee.
Although Yao Ming staged a classic scene of the hero's return, due to excessive injuries, Yao Ming was eventually reimbursed for the season, ending his playoff journey ahead of schedule.
The Rockets also lost in the tiebreaker.
You know, this is the only tiebreaker in the Lakers' championship journey this year!
If Yao Ming hadn't been injured...
Deng Fang also dreamed of that scene many times.
However, there are no ifs in history. When Deng Fang came to this world, the series between the Lakers and Rockets was already over.
He couldn't change the result.
In the end, the Lakers defeated the Magic 4:1 in the finals and won the championship of the 2008-09 season.
