The opponent after 547

Fans are just happy, passionate, and perhaps inspirational when they are just attracted by this intense confrontational sport. When the fans' thoughts are sublimated, they will become fans of a certain player, and then, they will identify with the same team, which is the hardcore fans needed by each team.

How to train hardcore fans? The Celtics have the most say in this regard. They can write a book "How the Iron Fans Are Made", just like Kobe is said to be writing the autobiographical novel "How the Iron is Made". Boston North Shore Garden Arena was once the stadium with the most die-hard fans, why is this happening? Because of honor, because of the glorious career of the Celtics.

Therefore, for professional leagues, the most important thing is not money, but honor. When you get more honors, you will naturally gain more fans and earn more money.

Why do players often play the hardest in the playoffs without salary? It is to compete for each honor.

The regular season came to an end and the NHAR Scoop Awards Ceremony began.

The Warriors are very happy because in the early morning of April 21, the NHA official announced the first important award of the 269 regular season, that is, the best coach of the year. Nelson, the old man, once again won the recognition of sports reporters and commentators, and won the fourth best coach of his career.

The trophy was awarded at the end of the third game between the Warriors and the Thunder. The old man took the trophy with a smile. Stern, who presented the award, smiled and congratulated him on becoming a winner in life.

Old Nelson is one of the rare players who have both honors and the head coaching era. In his first season, he averaged 10.2 points and 4 rebounds per game in 75 games. Later, he was taken to the Celtics by Cardinal Auerbach, helping the Celtics win the 196 NHA championship in the season. He then spent nine seasons with the Celtics, maintaining an average score of more than 10 points, helping the team win the l3B 196, 1974, and 1976 championships, and was the first in the league in shooting percentage in the 1974-1975 season. He is considered one of the sixth best in the Celtics history.

Yes, the crazy old man used to be a super sharpshooter. Until now, he still plays shooting games with his players when he is in good mood. However, with Curry coming, there are very few events held. That kid can't do anything, and as long as he starts shooting, no one will let him go.

Old Nelson is best known for the 196 finals, when it was the seventh final between the Celtics and the Lakers. He made a great finale to win the Celtics, which became a huge help for his No. 19 jersey to retire at Boston Garden Stadium.

In his head coaching age, his honor was even more brilliant. In 1976, when the Bucks took over, the latter had only a record of 15 wins. Then, the Bucks began the first major rectification of his coaching career, sending the top star Sven-Nate away, and poaching or selecting a group of outstanding non-superstar players such as Marquis and Placi. In the following ten years, the Bucks entered the playoffs nine times, with a record of over 6 wins in seven times and three times into the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Bucks did not have the league's top superstar at that time, but they became the disruptor that no one dared to underestimate the "black and white double evil spirits" era of Lakers' Celtics' competition. Old Nelson made an indelible contribution. It was he who proposed the concept of "ball control forward" unconventional, allowing small forwards to take both offense and organization, and gave the team unprecedented firepower with a new tactical concept, thus giving the Bucks the qualification to compete with the top teams in the league.

In addition, what you definitely wouldn't have imagined is that the old Nelson, who was criticized for never defending, was an iron coach who emphasized defense and started his career by defending during the Bucks. It was during the Bucks that the old Nelson won the honors of the Year in 1983 and 192 respectively.

Perhaps it was really the curse that came into effect. In 1987, the Bucks fell again at the foot of the Celtics at the peak of their lives, and Old Nelson had no choice but to leave. However, the next season, Old Nelson immediately started his crazy experiment with the Warriors. Not only did he completely overturn his defensive style when he was with the Bucks, but he even expanded the concept of "ball forward" into running and bombing. At that time, with Richmond, Tim Hardaway and Mullin, the Warriors' attack power was terrifying. People never thought that basketball could still be played like this. Old Nelson was also awarded the Best Coach for the third time in the year for his crazy tactics.

However, due to the lack of perfect forwards in possession, the Warriors never entered the finals. In the l99293 season, the Warriors chose Chris Weber with the No. 1 pick. Nelson also invited Popovich, who was then the Spurs assistant coach, as the Warriors' assistant coach. The Warriors entered the playoffs again with 6 wins and 3 losses. However, unexpectedly, the conflict between Nelson and Weber worsened and the Warriors failed again. The next season, Weber left Washington, and Nelson had to resign due to poor record.

After four years of twists and turns, in the 1997-196 season, Nelson, the old man came out again in the Dallas Mavericks. In the 69 season, Nelson completed perhaps the most brilliant deal in his career. He exchanged the choice of Robert Taylor for the unknown Nowitzki and the young Nash at that time. At this point, the three Mavericks were formed and the running and storm swept the league again. Nelson, the 0l, became the third coach of the NHA history, and entered the Western Conference Finals in 2012. Unfortunately, Nowitzki was injured and the Mavericks eventually lost to the Spurs led by Popovich.

Victory and failure, advancement and regression, these are the things that happened repeatedly in the coaching career of Old Nelson. He is the coach of Qiansheng and the coach with the highest winning rate in the league, but he has never led the team to win the championship. Although the old man doesn't mention this, Chamberlain and others know that this is his reverse scale, so don't tell him this.

This season, Old Nelson changed the roster drastically. Since Chamberlain arrived, the Warriors' starting lineup has almost completely changed. The reason is that he wants to fight and he wants to win a championship to correct himself.

He almost went crazy for this.

Old Nelson's efforts were not in vain. He won the appreciation of 22 sports journalists and commentators in a brilliant season, and scored a total of 36 points in the Best Coach voting, including 55 first votes.

The rule for the selection of the best head coach is that each voter selects three coaches in order, with the first choice counting 6 points, the second choice counting - points, and the third place counting l points. Old Nelson got a total of 55 first votes, 2 second votes and 17 third votes, a total of 36 points. The second is Cavaliers head coach Brown, who won a total of 13 first votes, a second vote and 14 third votes, a total of 15l points. The third highest score is Rockets Adelman, who scored 150 points, only l points less than Brown.

In fact, before this result appeared, fans had a debate about who was the best coach this season, and the main scope of the debate was between Old Nelson and Brown.

Brown is the Eastern Conference All-Star coach this season. He led the Cavaliers to a record of 6 wins and 17 losses. He is the second team in history to win 6 wins in a single season. The Cavaliers are so powerful at home this season that they scored 2 consecutive victories at the beginning of the season, and finally achieved the best home record of the league this season with 3 wins and 2 losses.

The Cavaliers were also the first team to win three home games since the 1937 season, the sixth team in NHA history, and the last team was the King Bulls of the Michael Jordan era. Compared with the 45 wins and 37 losses last season, the Cavaliers won 21 more games this year.

In addition, Brown has won the Best Coach of the Month Award three times this season, in February 26, February and -month this year. During the All-Star offseason, the Cavaliers led the Eastern Conference with a record of 6 wins and 9 losses, with a winning rate of 8, giving Brown the honor to become the head coach of the Eastern Conference All-Star team. This is Brown's first time being elected as the head coach of the All-Star team and the second time in the history of the Cavaliers, the last one was Lenny Wilkins in 198.

Brown won at least 45 wins in the first three seasons of coaching the Cavaliers, which was the second best period in the team's history. The last time was between 1991 and 1994. At that time, the Cavaliers' total record in four seasons was 2ll wins and l17 losses, with a winning rate of 640), and Brown had a higher winning rate, ranking first among the Cavaliers' coaches. Brown led the team to the playoffs in three seasons of coaching the Cavaliers, with a total of 2 wins and 2 losses (win rate of 3.0), which was also the best team history. In 207, he also led the Cavaliers to the Finals.

Compared with the magnificent Brown, Old Nelson will be much more dull this season, and it seems that there is no comparison.

But this is just in the eyes of fans and in the eyes of real experts, Old Nelson is the best head coach this season. This season, the Cavaliers' lineup has almost remained unchanged. They have just made simple reinforcements. What about the Warriors? The lineup has changed a lot. The team has almost replaced half of the people. Alice, Harrington, Azubuk and other strong players have changed, and Iverson and many rookies have come. In this case, the Warriors won 15 more games than last season.

Some people may say that Old Nelson won by Chamberlain's super combat effectiveness, and Brown has nothing to say. Didn't he rely on James? The most important thing is that experts can see the tactics that Old Nelson has been arranged. Many Warriors rely on reasonable tactics rather than strong players. The Cavaliers are different. One thing Brown needs to do is to remind everyone to remember to pass the ball to James at all times.

In the eyes of ordinary fans, this is nothing. They can't see any changes in tactics, but in the eyes of experts, the gap is huge.

There are also fans who are not convinced. The Cavaliers have the best record, so why not award the honor of the best coach? The Lakers Zen Master Jackson ranked second in the record and did not even get nominations. The top four rankings of this honor are: Old Nelson, Brown, Adelman, Stan Van Gundy, Zen Master doesn't even have Mao.

In the eyes of the fans, this honor is quite controversial, but in the eyes of the head coaches, there is no doubt about it. Popovich smiled and said, "That guy will come back sooner or later. I know that he is coming back now, which is beyond my expectations."

Stern's award speech to Old Nelson was: "He is a great head coach, and he can always make ordinary rookies grow into stars. He has such magical skills to turn stones into gold. Tim Hardaway, Hill, Sprayville, Richmond, "Penny" Hardaway, Biderlins, Ibaka, Curry and our favorite eight rookies from outside the draft grew into All-Star players one by one. In addition, he is also good at discovering and cultivating foreign players, including Wang Zhizhi, Nahura and other foreign players, and nowitzki has become one of the best forwards in the NHA under his guidance. Of course, one more has to be added now."

Old Nelson finally smiled at the reporters attending the press conference: "I was planning to retire, so I quickly find a successor to manage this team. You know, I always seem to make a mess of the game. Now this honor has changed my plan. I think there are still people who like my coaching style. If that's the case, I have to go a few more years."

The old man announced his retirement in 205, but just a year later, he returned to the Warriors and led the team to create the Black Eight Miracle.
