Chapter 684 New Orleans Saints

Holt's exclusive interview was soon released by fox sports.

This has attracted a lot of heated discussions among fans on social media.

"Holter endured it for two years, and finally couldn't help it? He was announcing the world their original decisions! "

"This is the capitalist. He has all forgotten how the Spurs' two consecutive championships came from. Now that the Pelicans are going to eliminate them, they will come out and speak out immediately!"

"There's no way. The Spurs management has been almost scolded as a fool in the past two years. If you don't believe it, go and ask the Spurs general manager Buford!"

"Buffod: Yes!!!"

"But I was inexplicably unhappy. This kind of practice felt like a snob, taking advantage of others' danger!"

"Yes, those reasons are also powerless. Leonard can grow to this point. Will Don be worse than him in the Spurs?"

"Those are excuses, but the series is not over yet, I still hope that the Pelicans can fight back!"

"That's impossible. Let's wait for next year. I think Jokic will definitely win if he grows up next year!"

...

Holt's interview attracted great public opinion, and the Pelicans players were also very upset when they saw it.

Tang Tian is the boss of the team and is also a popular candidate for MVP. In Holt's mouth, he feels like an ordinary role player.

The morale of the team was extremely low after 1-3, but due to this stimulation, it rebounded a lot.

Of course, the overall situation is still sluggish.

No matter which team it is, it is difficult to be optimistic about the 1-3 situation.

In his spare time, Tang Tian was also thinking about how to improve the morale of the team.

It is said that history is used as a lesson, but he has never experienced such a situation even in his previous life. As for other experienced teams, he does not know those celebrities.

The Rockets are ready-made, but they have no acquaintances. Harden, Bosh, and Parsons have little relationship with him.

Just as Tang Tian was thinking about this, an uninvited guest came to his villa.

Demps.

There is only one reason Demps came to look for Tang Tian.

Although the playoffs are still playing, the draft will be held in a month, and the Pelicans will start preparing for next year's draft in advance.

The Pelicans' second round this year had been given to the Clippers before, but they still have a first round.

This first round pick was confirmed at the end of the regular season and was a 28th pick at the end of the first round.

Tang Tian brought Jokic to the Pelicans last year, and Demps will definitely come to him this year.

The two sat in the living room and chatted for a while.

The Pelicans' lineup has stabilized now, so they don't need to add too much to the new players.

But no matter how strong the team is, they must have rookie reserves, so this draft pick still needs to be chosen.

If you really want to add it, the team's No. 4 position is relatively weak.

Taylor Tovic has fallen out of the rotation and his contract expires this summer, so the Pelicans will most likely not stay in the summer.

Even the current substitute Amino is not a serious fourth position.

Tang Tian gave Demps several inspection subjects.

Bobby Portis, Larry Nance Jr., Montrez Harrell, Sadie Ottoman.

History has changed a lot now. The Lakers, who have not entered the playoffs before, have entered the playoffs.

So the draft will become more confusing.

So Tang Tian has put those who have a market break in the first round and may be helpful to the team.

Demps took the list and left.

Tang Tian is now like Zhuge who is strategizing, constantly giving advice to the Pelicans.

And it's the free one.

After seeing Demps away, Tang Tian suddenly remembered something.

When the Pelicans tied 2-2 with the Grizzlies in the first round, Demps and Lausa came to the training ground.

That training session was surprisingly effective.

At that time, he felt that the management's encouragement was very obvious to the team members.

It's right to think about it. Although the boss is not the one who directly pays the players, the management is still the one who decides the player's contract.

Everyone wants to have a good impression of the management.

Thinking of this, Tang Tianshi sent Benson a text message, and after confirming that the other party had time, he called him again.

The content is very simple. He hopes that Benson will come to the scene during the team's training and say something to boost the team's morale.

Before, the situation was 2-2 with the Grizzlies, and the situation could only be considered a stalemate. Demps and Lausha came.

But now 1 to 3, if you want to borrow external forces on the cliff, of course you have to borrow the best one.

Benson is the most suitable candidate.

Benson accepted it happily.

Although he is old, he really does his best to the Pelicans.

During the training session the next day, the team members were training and there was a commotion at the door.

It turned out that the team owner Benson and his assistant came to the training hall.

Benson's sudden appearance made the players excited.

Benson is not in very good health now and rarely goes out, let alone come to the stadium.

Needless to say, going to the training hall was a great spiritual encouragement to the players.

When Benson came in, he secretly met Tang Tian.

After Borrego brought the players together, Benson smiled and told them a story.

"In 2010, the Saints reached the Super Bowl, and their opponents were the Colts led by Payton Manning, one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. We were the dogs. Most people thought we could not win, and even after the half-time we were as far behind as the outside world expected.

But at the halftime break, the team's star quarterback Drew Brees said something I will always remember.

'We might lose this game, but it may be the closest and only chance I'm going to be in the world championship, so before the final whistle sounds, I'll run desperately as long as my legs aren't broken.'

I was in the locker room at the time, and we reversed our opponent in the second half. His words made me know one thing. If you don’t give your all, you don’t know how strong you are.”

The Saints are a legend of New Orleans. As a traditional weak team, they won the only Super Bowl championship in team history in 2010 and the only New Orleans team to win the North American Professional Sports League championship.

They even missed the NFL playoffs for two consecutive years before winning the championship.

Benson is talking about what happened that night of the 2010 Super Bowl, when the Saints fell behind in the first half and reversed the Jedi in the second half, reversing the Colts 31-17 to win the championship.

The situation at that time did have similarities with the Pelicans now, and it also has advantages.

After Benson finished speaking, Tang Tian looked around his teammates and found that they were all very excited.

In New Orleans, you will definitely hear the story of the Saints.

Now Benson, as the team boss, uses this story and his personal experience to inspire his players.
