Chapter 1,169 Popovich Retires and Curry Disappears Again!

This was a very sudden decision, but it was not an impulsive decision. "

At the post-game press conference after the game between the Spurs and Seattle SuperSonics, the reporters present were prepared to ask Popovich about his conflict with Rondo on the court.

After all, the relationship between Popovich and Rondo is so strange.

In addition, after the game, Popovich's uppercut plan can be said to have shocked the world.

Although there are not many cases of players beating coaches, we have seen one or two cases in the NBA.

But have you ever seen a coach beat a player?

Moreover, the coach who hit was still Popovich, and the person who hit was still Rondo!

It can be said that after this incident, the entire NBA exploded.

Now the Internet is full of discussions about Popovich boxing Rondo.

As the most bloodthirsty group, how could these reporters let go of such an opportunity.

However, what shocked the reporters at the scene was that they had not had time to dig into the gossip between Popovich and Rondo.

Popovich threw them another depth charge as soon as he came up.

Popovich, the three-time NBA championship coach, announced that after this game, he will resign as head coach of the Spurs and retire from the NBA.

"I have been working for basketball for forty years from 1973 to now. For me, this is more than half of my life. This is enough. I am tired of this kind of life. You may not know that I How much I hate traveling, how much I hate constantly flying from one place to another. Sleeping on an unfamiliar bed in a hotel makes me feel uncomfortable all over. Eating food not made by Eileen always makes me feel terrible. Bad habits. Shit, and I don’t like the changeable weather that varies from place to place.”

"This is really a very unhealthy lifestyle. I am now 65 years old. At this age, it is time to think about retirement. In fact, after Tim left, I have been thinking about this issue. At that time, I said it, when Tim left the Spurs, that was when I left the Spurs, and now, it’s just me fulfilling my promise.”

After Popovich finished speaking with a smile, he stood up and left without giving any reporters present a chance to ask questions, leaving a group of stunned reporters behind.

Popovich announces retirement from Spurs!

After Popovich's press conference ended, the news on the Internet that was originally filled with Popovich beating Rondo suddenly turned into news about Popovich's retirement.

No matter what kind of reputation Popovich has in the league right now, the Rumble Rebellion, the Twelve Hours of the Castle, letting Leonard go, Rondo letting go, Duncan letting go, even Bennett being drafted, etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc. It almost confirmed his reputation as Alzheimer's disease.

But there is no doubt that Popovich is one of the most iconic head coaches in NBA history.

From 1997 to now, for 16 years, Popovich has been one of the most eye-catching coaches in the NBA head coaching world.

It can be said that when talking about the players in these 16 years, everyone will talk about Kobe and Duncan, who have been prosperous for 16 years.

When it comes to replacing players with head coaches, Popovich and Phil Jackson correspond to Kobe and Duncan.

It would certainly be a shock for such a coach to leave like this.

After all, the Spurs were already in such misery before, with Duncan gone, but Popovich still persisted. Obviously, everyone felt that Popovich was pursuing something.

Could it be that a defeat in May 8th made Popovich lose his pursuit?

Or did Popovich lose his pursuit after beating Rondo in revenge?

That's obviously not the case.

"In this game, the Spurs' young softies hurt Popovich's heart too much!"

"Faced with Rondo's constant humiliation in this game, Popovich kept squinting his eyes and smiling. It seemed that he was smiling in the face of Rondo's humiliation.

But with Popovich's fiery character, how could he accept Rondo's humiliation with such a smile? He is waiting for one of his players to stand up. He hopes to use Rondo to humiliate him to arouse the passion of the young players he values. However, whether it is Bennett, Barnes or others, People, none of these players who were trained by Popovich stood up, walked up to Rondo, and punched Rondo. "

"th!"

"At the moment the game ended, Popovich's heart was dead. He had been sheltering. Even after the game started, Popovich, who had been giving in to Rondo's provocation for them, finally despaired. He I finally know that these people cannot bring about the rise of his good Spurs."

"Rather than wasting time on these people, it's better to leave."

Why did Popovich choose this time to retire?

Why are you so stubborn?

Obviously, after watching this game between the SuperSonics and the Spurs, anyone with a little knowledge can see why Popovich is.

Those young players on the Spurs are so fucked up!

So soft!

Just like Barkley said at the end of the game when Popovich beat Rondo.

"I commented on Bennett before, saying that he was softer than my dick when it was at its softest. I'm sorry, dick, I insulted you."

"These young people from the Spurs should play in the WNBA. I'm not disrespecting the WNBA. What I mean is that the players in the WNBA may be more lenient with these little babies because of women's natural maternal nature."

"Popovich's hair dryer, Rondo's humiliation, and the world's pessimism, any bloody man will be violent, but they will always shrink. Such players are suitable for reading newspapers with black tea. They are not suitable to play against others on the court, and they are destined to have no future."

Obviously, these thoughts of Barkley are the thoughts of all the viewers around the world after watching this game.

At the same time, it was also Popovich’s idea.

These young people have no future and it has nothing to do with their talents. Their blood is cold and cannot be heated up.

They are not suitable for this hot-blooded place.

For a time, the Spurs' "four cold-blooded young men" headed by Bennett appeared on the stage of NBA history and American basketball history.

Popovich announced his retirement from the NBA, and Leafs and Sonics players got the news before they even boarded the plane.

After hearing the news that Popovich was leaving the NBA and retiring from the Spurs, Rondo became the focus of attention for the SuperSonics.

However, what surprised Ye Si and the Sonics was that after hearing the news, Rondo did not show any expression of joy or joy on his face.

It seems that Popovich's departure has been known for a long time.

If you think about it for a moment, that's really the case.

In this game, Rondo humiliated Popovich so much. It was obvious that it was not just revenge on the surface, but a murderous intention.

The incidents of Popovich licking Rondo have been exposed to the world in the past three years.

The content inside is as disgusting as possible.

What kind of person is Rondo?

Narrow-minded, vindictive and arrogant.

But there's no question that before Popovich and those in the Spurs licked him, most of the criticism he received in the world was criticism.

Although he has always been aiming for the top spot in the SuperSonics, in fact, his status has always been quite 'special'.

It can be said that his NBA career has never been truly praised.

Popovich and the Spurs were the oasis that suddenly appeared in Rondo's dry heart.

The warm ground you encounter when walking in the cold winter.

In Rondo's life, except for Yes, no one valued him that much. He was reluctant to leave Yes. If Rondo hadn't felt that Popovich valued him no less than Yes, he would have been I was reluctant to leave the Seattle SuperSonics.

But the final result was pretty solid.

Didn’t Popovich give him a chance?

Gave it.

He messed up.

The chance is gone.

This was his three years with the Spurs.

What he saw was no emotion, only interests.

He originally thought that he and Popovich had feelings, and Popovich had feelings for him.

Just like the relationship between Yes and him, even if the whole world slanders him, Yes will stand firmly by his side, join him, and be the enemy of the whole world.

But Popovich did not do this. When he was despised by the whole world, when he needed the opportunity to express himself and prove himself most, Popovich took away his opportunity.

I originally thought that the union between us was a union of emotions, but it turned out that everything was just interests.

You take away my opportunities and want to hand them over to people like Favors, Barnes, and Williams?

Haha, then Second Master Long will let you know whether these people deserve the opportunities you took from Second Master.

In this game, all Rondo's humiliation to Popovich was deliberately planned by him, just to let Popovich know that he is valued by him and thinks that he is a group of people who are better than Rondo and can become the future of the Spurs. What a bunch of stuff.

Rondo succeeded.

He kept humiliating Popovich and provoking the Spurs. In the end, no one of these young people dared to stand up.

In the past three years, Rondo has not only gotten to know Popovich, but also what kind of person Popovich is.

Similarly, in the past three years, he has also known very well what kind of young players the current Spurs are.

He succeeded.

He took true revenge against Popovich, a murderous and heart-wrenching revenge.

After being abandoned by Popovich, he scored 48 points in this game and led the team to a 58-point victory over the Spurs.

And those young Spurs players who were fully protected and trained by Popovich have no strength, no blood, and no love, no love for him as the head coach, and no love for the Spurs. Their blood is so cold. People are desperate.

It can be said that Popovich's departure and all of this were directed by Rondo.

There was certainly no need for him to be surprised.

Popovich also knew that this was directed by Rondo.

This is what Rondo wants him to see.

But he still chose to leave.

The punch he punched Rondo after the game was not revenge, not disgust, but gratitude.

At the same time, it is also the end of all the grievances with Rondo.

Looking at the darkness and gloom outside the plane, Rondo, who had been silent, sighed in his heart.

The great revenge was avenged, and I was not as happy and excited as I imagined.

Instead, it feels a little empty.

Popovich's false love for him made him hate it, and also made him know that in this world, only Yes' love for him and SuperSonics' love for him are real.

He hates Popovich and is grateful to Popovich.

He never had this kind of sentiment when he was in Sonics. As many Chinese people say, you will become more patriotic after you go abroad, and you will love your parents even more after you leave your parents.

He lost his virginity to Popovich, and Popovich also gave him growth.

"We don't owe each other any more."

The special plane left San Antonio and headed west...

November 27, 2013, Golden State Oracle Arena.

Today, the Oracle Arena was not only packed with people early in the game, but also the square outside the stadium was already packed with people.

The Seattle SuperSonics, second in the Western Conference and with 13 consecutive victories, challenged the Golden State Warriors, now third in the Western Conference, with 13 wins and 1 loss, in an away game.

This game is definitely a match where Mars hits the Earth.

If we talk about this year's NBA, David Stern has set the tone as another battle between the brave and the devil.

There is no doubt that the Golden State Warriors are one of the three strongest warriors in the entire league.

This season, the Golden State Warriors continued to be as strong as the previous three seasons. In the 14 games before the season, they only lost one game to the Lakers and won all other games.

According to the situation of the Golden State Warriors this season, this season, the Golden State Warriors are likely to achieve a record of 70 wins in the regular season for the fourth consecutive season!

You know, in the past three seasons, most of the league's hatred has been focused on the Warriors.

This season, most of the league's hatred is focused on the Sonics.

This season, the Warriors' living environment is much better.

Other teams that are not as strong as the Warriors simply don't fight the Warriors.

Now everyone is busy looking for the SuperSonics. If they are the Warriors, who can care about the Golden State Warriors.

This season, the only teams that need the Warriors to work hard are the SuperSonics, Cavaliers, and Lakers.

Especially the Seattle SuperSonics.

In the past three seasons, the Warriors have been a devilish team, and now they have become the Warriors.

And Supersonic became the big devil.

For the Warriors, this game, whether it is for the entire 'league' or for themselves, is to fight the Seattle SuperSonics.

Of course, for the Seattle SuperSonics, the Golden State Warriors are also a super strong enemy.

It was easy and satisfying to play 5-8 against other teams before, including against the Cavaliers. Because the Cavaliers underestimated the enemy, 5-8 was not difficult.

But the Warriors are different.

With the current momentum of the Supersonics, even if the Warriors want to underestimate the enemy, it is impossible...

"Master, if I spoil my junior brother in this game, you won't be angry, right?"

"..."

Looking at the surprised expression on Ye Si's face, Curry giggled.
