June 9, today is the G2 of the NBA Finals. In addition to the game, there is another important thing. According to famous reporter Stein, sources revealed that Don Nelson was awarded the Chuck Daly Lifetime Achievement Award by the National Basketball Coaches Association. In today's finals, Carlisle will award him this honor. Nelson has been in Maui for the past seven years and has never left. This is also the first time he has left Maui in the past seven years.
The Elder Nelson became the 20th coach in history to win the Lifetime Achievement Award. The 20 coaches are: Tom Heinthorne, Jack Ram and Turkswinter, Lanny Wilkens, Pat Riley, Bill Fitch, Bernie Bickstaff, Dickmore, KC Jones and Jerry Sloan, Atles and Hubby Brown, Doug Mota, Frank Laden, Dell Harris, Larry Brown, Flatlow, Adelman, Tom Janovic, and this year's Elder Nelson.
Old Nelson is nicknamed the mad scientist. Many of his tactical ideas can be seen in this era. He started coaching in 1976 and coached for a total of 34 years. He won the second most in history in his career. He has won the best coach of the year three times and is a legendary coach. He has coached in the Bucks, Warriors, Knicks and Mavericks. He also blackened the Mavericks during his coaching Warriors.
He is the mentor of King No. 1. It can be said that old Nelson has a deep affection for the Mavericks. In 1998, the reason why King No. 1 was selected by the Mavericks was today. In the 1998 draft, he said: In the draft this year, I liked Pierce very much, but with the insistence of my son Nelson Jr., we chose Nowitzki. Although Old Nelson prefers Pierce, he has no dissatisfaction after the team selected King No. 1.
Old Nelson created a tactical system for King No, and King No, and King No, gradually reached a star-level level. After that, King No, led the team to the playoffs, but King No, suffered injuries. At that time, the relationship between Cuban and King No, was not as good as it is now. He thought Nowitzki was his worker, so he also wanted to let him play with injuries. As a result, King No, refused. He did not want Nowitzki to return with injuries, because this would increase the possibility of his career being ruined, and Old Nelson also angered Cuban.
In the end, Old Nelson was cut by the Mavericks, and Old Nelson joined the Warriors again after leaving the Mavericks. He relied on the bombardment tactics he created to lead the Golden State Gang, the eighth in the West, to defeat the Mavericks who won 67 wins in the regular season this year, and completed the Black Eight. Old Nelson proved himself too. Although he was given up by the Mavericks, Old Nelson was still concerned about his old club, but he was very dissatisfied with the Mavericks' deal with Doncic.
Old Neil said in an interview today that he planned to wear Doncic's signature shoes when he went on stage to receive the award. He said: Doncic is my good friend. As a protest against his trade from the Mavericks to the Lakers, I will wear his newly bought Doncic signature shoes: I will mention this specifically. When you have outstanding players in your hands, that is your precious asset and will never change in your life. We should not give up outstanding players. I will feel frustrated whenever such a situation occurs.
At the 2018 draft, the reason why the Hawks were willing to complete the draft signing with the Mavericks was that Nelson played a great role. It can be said that this was his finding the cornerstone of the Mavericks' future, but he was sent away by the Mavericks' deal, wasting his efforts and expectations. Although he and Cuban have a lot of unhappiness, after all, he has coached here for many years and still hopes that the Mavericks can be better. However, if the Mavericks change their boss, it is estimated that old Nelson will no longer provide any help to the Mavericks in the future.
Although the Mavericks have been questioned a lot of questions this season because of their trading, their team is really lucky. If Doncic is not traded, they may not be able to win the No. 1 pick. Now the Mavericks are planning to interview Flag. To be honest, this is just a formality, but this process must still be done, not only for the outside world, but also a basis for establishing a relationship between Flag and the Mavericks.
Speaking of this, what do you want to say about the Mavericks now? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
