Chapter 10 I have too few rings!

The next morning, Zhou Mubai came to find D'Antoni, but was told to go out. D'Antoni came to the office in the afternoon. Zhou Mubai went to find him, and D'Antoni turned down the talks with Zhou Mubai because of his busy affairs.

After a few times, Zhou Mubai knew what D'Antoni meant. He was just not wanting to talk to him.

D'Antoni's idea is easy to understand. He should think that the success of last season proved the success of tactics, so there is no need to change the tactics at all. This tactic is his proud work. If it is successful, why change it?

As the NBA best coach in the 2004-05 season and the NBA best coach in the 2009-10 season, he has his own pride.

Although Zhou Mubai is powerful and has high tactical qualities, the coach is the coach, and the players are the players. Everyone performs their own duties. If you do the players' duties well, don't point fingers in the coach's affairs.

This is how people are. Most of them share hardships but not wealth.

D'Antoni forgot the embarrassing situation before Zhou Mubai came to the Knicks, and also forgot that it was Zhou Mubai who saved him from this situation, and even more forgot that it was Zhou Mubai who gave him the first championship in his coaching career.

Deep in his heart, these are all what he deserves. The Knicks can win the championship is that he is planning himself. As for Zhou Mubai, he just perfectly implements his tactics.

So, does such a tactic need to be changed?

Unneeded.

D'Antoni refused to talk to Zhou Mubai about tactics.

If it were an ordinary player, it would probably be over. Perhaps he would be discouraged and just live a life of silence. However, Zhou Mubai is not such a person. In the past years, time has taught him a lot of things, one of which is - to seek peace through struggle, peace will survive; to seek peace through compromise, peace will perish.

NBA is a competitive sports, players are athletes, but NBA is also a business alliance. NBA is like a big company. Players who play in NBA are like employees working in big companies. Coaches are also employees. To put it nicely, the relationship between players and coaches is the master-apprentice relationship, and to be honest, the relationship between colleagues is just one is superior and the other is subordinate. But the relationship between them is not simply described by superior and subordinate relationship.

The relationship between coaches and players is very complicated, with many variables between them, and their strengths also affect their interactions.

If the coach is a famous coach and the player is an ordinary player, then it is a more appropriate way to get along with the players;

The coach is an ordinary coach and the players are superstars, so it is common for the coach to coax the players;

The most difficult thing is that the coach is a famous coach and the players are superstars. It would be fine if both sides respect each other and perform their duties. It would be considered a match made by nature, but if there is a dispute over tactical concepts, the storm caused can be big or small.

Zhou Mubai is not afraid of fighting. If he is afraid, he will not come to the United States. Wouldn’t it be nice to stay in China?

The trip to NBA is a very important part of his plan. A championship cannot meet his requirements. He needs many championships.

It would be fine if D'Antoni could keep up with him, but if he couldn't keep up, he would change it.

Zhou Mubai found Donny Walsh.

Donny Walsh was not surprised by Zhou Mubai's visit. Zhou Mubai often came to him to communicate about the team. In fact, Donny Walsh was also very strange. He rarely saw such a young player, but he could get along with interpersonal relationships so well.

Zhou Mubai has a lot of words in the team and has a high prestige in the coaching staff. He will often communicate with him. His respect for Zhou Mubai is not only because he is the future of the team, but more because of Zhou Mubai's vision and ability.

"Hi, Zhou, I look in a good mood today." Donny Walsh smiled.

Zhou Mubai smiled slightly: "Then you are wrong. I'm not in a good mood today."

"Ao, this is rare. Zhou, your mentality is very stable. In Chinese terms, it means that your heart is calm. Even in the most difficult times, I have never seen you anxious. What makes you feel in a bad mood? Tell me?"

Zhou Mubai pointed outside: "Let's go, let's go for a walk, and talk while walking."

Donny Walsh looked at the leaves outside falling down under the autumn wind, and yellow leaves were already covered on the ground, which was a good weather for a walk, and nodded.

The two walked and said while walking under the shade of the tree, stepping on thick fallen leaves.

"Donny, do you think the championship we won last season is strength or luck?"

Donny Walsh smiled and said, "Of course it's because of strength. If it's all luck, then our Knicks are probably not the son of luck."

Zhou Mubai smiled and said, "In my opinion, it really takes some luck."

"What do you mean?" Donny Walsh's face turned a little calm. He knew that Zhou Mubai must have targeted him.

Zhou Mubai glanced at Donny Walsh: "Last season, we lacked talent, were born with shortcomings, and our opponents were extremely powerful. Volkswagen did not think we could reach the finals. Even if we entered the finals, we would not be able to win the championship, but in the end we still got it. It would be impossible to say that there is no luck here, right?"

Donny Walsh shook his head: "If you really have luck, then our luck is you."

Zhou Mubai smiled.

"Okay, let's talk about the serious business, Donnie, you understand the ball too. What do you think of our team's tactics?"

Donny Walsh was shocked and thought for a while and said, "I think it's very good, after all, we have won the championship, right?"

Zhou Mubai smiled: "Mike is not here, just tell the truth."

Donny Walsh smiled awkwardly: "I think Mike's tactics are indeed a bit monotonous. Last season you proposed to enrich the tactical system. Last season, the key is to win the championship with such tactics. In fact, the key is to you."

Zhou Mubai nodded: "But this season is no longer possible, our opponents are stronger this season."

Zhou Mubai stared at Donny Walsh: "We have to make changes, but now Mike is unwilling to make changes. He thinks his tactics are great."

"You want me to convince Mike?"

Zhou Mubai nodded: "He doesn't want to communicate with me."

Donny Walsh nodded: "I will communicate with him, but I may not be able to convince him, you know, every coach has his own persistence."

Zhou Mubai nodded: "If he is unwilling to make changes... what do the team thinks?"

Donny Walsh suddenly turned his head: "What do you want to do?"
