Rebirth of Hayes Cyclone

Chapter 130 [He stays, I go! 】

After the victory over the Spurs, although the score was only 1 to 1, every Houston fan was very optimistic, thinking that the Rockets with such an iron-blooded defense would definitely eliminate the Spurs and enter the finals.

When Van Gundy was interviewed, he praised the players who played.He said: "This is the game I always wanted to see. The players played the most exciting defensive basketball. In the first two seasons, some people always said that the Rockets sacrificed the offense for the defense. I disagree. What I built is indeed a defense. The team, but as long as the players strictly implement the tactics, we can attack and defend, and now we have a group of such players."

It's normal for Van Gundy to be excited. He finally reached the peak of his career this year.The Rockets have become the team with the strongest defensive ability in the league, and they have also maintained the team's offensive ability and style of play.

The reporter asked about McGrady's injury again.Van Gundy said: "He hasn't recovered to his best form. We discussed it. When he thinks he can play, I will naturally arrange him to play."

After the press conference, Van Gundy looked at his cell phone that was tuned to Vibrate. McGrady didn't call or send a text message.Van Gundy snorted, shook his head, and walked to the parking lot.

Van Gundy saw a black man waiting in front of his car, saw him come and waved, it was Hayes.

"The press conference is finally over." Hayes laughed.

"You kid is really interesting. I asked you to attend the press conference instead of going, and now you are running here to wait for me. What's the matter?" Van Gundy laughed.

"Aren't you in a hurry to go home? I have something to discuss with you." Hayes said.

"Then let's go, get in your car. I can't fit you in this car." Van Gundy readily agreed.

The two went to Yao's restaurant together, and went into the private room to order some supper.Van Gundy smiled and said, "Why didn't you accompany your girlfriend and manager today?"

"Taylor's father also came to the home court to watch the two games, and they went home together. I don't need to see Gao... Jeff, let's not talk about this, I want to talk to you about the team." Heye Si said seriously.

"Go ahead."

"If I go to another team next season, will you blame me?" Hayes said lightly.

Although the playoffs are still going on, Hayes decided to communicate with Van Gundy as soon as possible and listen to Van Gundy's opinions.

"No. You are already a super player, far exceeding my expectations of you before the season. I originally only valued your defense. You can do a good job in the third scoring point, which is an added bonus. But now you have become You are the core of this team. If I were to choose the MVP, I would definitely choose you, you are the best player of the Rockets." Van Gundy laughed.

"Think I'm the best player, but also want to push me to the enemy camp? What's the point? If I stay in the Rockets, we may build a dynasty?" Hayes is a little puzzled.

"If you stay, the Rockets may indeed build a dynasty, but Alexander is an idiot. He will not renew your contract with a maximum salary. He will only try to avoid the luxury tax, because making money is his goal. If it wasn't Dawson's determination back then It touched me, and I would not choose the Rockets at all." Van Gundy said: "Chuck, you are an incredible person, not only your skills and spirit, but also your vision, if you hadn't recommended David Lee, Paul (Miller) Sapp) and Derek (Fisher), it is impossible for us to play such a good result. But they put all the credit for you on Tracy (McGrady). Tracy is the best in the Rockets I feel unfair for you who have no fighting spirit."

"Jeff, thank you." Hayes took a deep breath and said solemnly.When he was just reborn, he was most worried about Van Gundy's stubbornness. He was afraid that he would not be reused by Van Gundy. Unexpectedly, after one season, Van Gundy became his confidant, and he thought of him more than Yao Ming.

"Didn't the Rockets pay the luxury tax, is it possible to renew my contract with a high salary?" Hayes smiled bitterly: "Jeff, with the current staffing of our team, as long as Tracy can be replaced next season, I can do whatever I want." A hard-working star will definitely sweep the league, and it will not be a problem to break the Bulls' record of 72 wins. I always feel that it is a pity to go like this."

Van Gundy nodded and smiled: "Of course you are right, but Alexander likes Tracy the most, making it difficult to trade him. Tom (Thibodeau) and I have been trying to change Tracy's attitude, but unfortunately it didn't work .After winning the MVP, his mentality has worsened, and if he doesn't change, I don't want to play him."

"Jeff, don't you want to do it?" Hayes asked.

In the memory of Hayes' previous life, although the Rockets were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs in 2007, Van Gundy ranked fourth in the selection of the best coach and received a lot of recognition. After the end of the season, he left.The news said that the Rockets thought Van Gundy's style was too ugly and had no intention of renewing his contract, so they hired Adelman.Later, many teams looked for Van Gundy as a coach, but he chose to be a commentator.So the news said that Van Gundy himself didn't want to be a coach.Van Gundy was named the best coach this season. If the Rockets don't renew Van Gundy's contract, Alexander and Morey can only be described as brain-dead, right?
"Have you forgotten what I said before? You go, I will never stay. As soon as this season is over, I will go talk to Alexander and Morey and ask them to renew your contract with a high salary, plus one more, trade Tracy, take you as the core of the team. When the time comes, you recommend players, we trade them over, and happily win the championship together. If they give up on you and choose Tracy, FUCK! Also please play smart data, I don’t Done." Van Gundy smiled, but his tone was firm.

Hayes was stunned. He knew that Van Gundy was stubborn, but he didn't expect that he could be so handsome.

"Brother, I just found out today that you are such a domineering person."

"Tracey would have been a Hall of Famer if he had the same personality as you. His talents belong to another world, much higher than other players. He has almost perfect body and excellent consciousness. He is in the magic team. He also played a great season. I liked him very much before, and I hope he can win the championship with Yao Ming, but his attitude in the past two years is chilling. Even if I don’t say it, you must understand it. Everyone understands it. It’s just that no one brought it up against him, he was never a good team player, just a good looking player.”

Hayes agrees completely with Van Gundy's statement.

Fans only started to pay attention to McGrady in the 2000 dunk contest. They thought McGrady was very talented, with amazing height, long arms and amazing jumping ability, but they still liked McGrady's cousin Carter more.

Later, McGrady left Carter and went to the Magic to work alone, and soon won the Most Improved Player Award.

In 2003, Tracy McGrady won the scoring title with astonishing statistics and officially entered the ranks of league superstars.

In 2004, McGrady's Magic lost again and again, the defeat was a mess, and the defeated league was at the bottom of the league, but McGrady was still the scoring leader. Everyone was very surprised, "The team with the scoring leader will be the bottom?" Afterwards, McGrady admitted his brush. Branches.But everyone is looking forward to seeing McGrady's performance in the All-Stars, because his playing style is very "different", handsome and elegant.McGrady's famous remark is "I am fighting for the data this season, for the bargaining chips I will get in and out in the future."Is this what the pros say?No wonder the Magic would be willing to trade the core of their team.

When McGrady arrived in Houston, he first had commercial endorsements and advertisements, and then bought a 3000-square-meter mansion worth tens of millions. From time to time, he would come to a baseball charity club. McGrady, who had lost his memory, was inevitably separated from the entanglement of luxury cars, expensive houses, and beautiful wives. Heart.To put it bluntly, McGrady is more than lazy, he doesn't have much desire to win.

He once said that his favorite sport was baseball, would any other star in the league say that?

When Tracy McGrady won two scoring titles in the Magic, he once said, "In the league, only Kobe is comparable to me."Iverson has never been so arrogant. Kobe won three championships, and he dare not say that he is better than Iverson.

Last season, McGrady also said, "Kobe did it, so can I. At 81 points, the Raptors didn't double-team Kobe."

If you really compare McGrady with his good friend, you will find that the two are far behind.It is not the difference in talent or ability, but in spirit!

When Kobe won the scoring champion, continue training!Training as always!Use masochistic training to improve your game during the summer without games.

When McGrady won the scoring champion, he claimed to be the number one!He goes on vacation during the summer without games!Play with the kids!play baseball!play golf!

Kobe was very thin when he first entered the league. Later, Kobe got stronger and got fewer and fewer injuries, because he wanted to defend and he needed strong muscles.

Where's Maddie?When he first entered the league, his physical fitness was better than Kobe, and he was better than Kobe when he trained together during the holidays in the Magic.Then McGrady arrived at the Rockets, his calves became thinner and his stomach got bigger, and he suffered frequent injuries in three days, and his defense became more and more lax.

Aside from his skills, McGrady is a negative example.

Before the game, Van Gundy said to Tracy McGrady: "Call me when you feel healthy enough to play."

If McGrady questions Van Gundy's formation, Van Gundy will be very happy. If McGrady loses his temper, he will believe that McGrady can play the game with all his strength and make McGrady the starter.Maddie didn't do that.

If McGrady communicated with Van Gundy during the game and said that he could play and was willing to contribute to the team, he would immediately send him on the court, but McGrady did not speak, and watched the entire game as if he was really injured, with a smile on his face. Smile.

If McGrady made a phone call or sent a text message to talk to Van Gundy after the game, Van Gundy would think he was still alive.But McGrady went home after the game.It doesn't seem to matter whether he wins the Spurs or not.Van Gundy had nothing but disgust for Tracy McGrady.Such a person is not a leader, and the appropriate title for him should be "tumor"!
How to build a dynasty with cancer as the core team?Therefore, Van Gundy has made up his mind to negotiate with the uniform team, strengthen Hayes' core position, and trade McGrady.

"Jeff, if they choose McGrady..." Hayes rubbed his nose and smiled.

Van Gundy thought for a while, and said lightly: "I just said...he stays, I go!"

Hayes: "..."
