In the Bobcats training ground, Kongbu and Jordan gathered everyone to sit together and chat.

Jordan's management philosophy is sometimes good. For example, after playing a training game, he will point out the problems of each player one by one.

Whether it's the offensive or defensive end, Jordan has an absolute say.

"Koke, are you frightened by Pat Riley? Why are you so weak in defense?"

"You are a white man, and your physical talent is inherently inferior to that of some black players. If you don't dare to work hard, how can you defend against them?"

Jordan spoke very directly. He valued Hinrich very much and said these words for Hinrich's benefit.

After being scolded by Jordan, Hinrich lowered his head and did not dare to speak. Except for O'Brien and Hill, everyone else on the Bobcats team was afraid of Jordan, even Pippen was no exception.

"Michael was right this time, Cork, don't think so much."

"As long as you have a clear conscience on the court, as long as you don't intentionally harm others, even if your opponent is really injured because of you, there is nothing you can do about it."

"Just think of what Laili said as farts."

Combu also noticed that Hinrich's defensive intensity dropped a lot after he scolded Laili.

"Coach, thank you for this."

"I fell out with a big shot like Laili because of me, and I caused you trouble."

Hinrich said with a guilty look on his face.

As soon as he said this, both Kongbu and Jordan burst out laughing.

Jordan grinned from ear to ear, "What did you say? Come to benefit the big shot?"

"Aren't you clear about the historical status of Kongbu and I? Laili is worthy of being called a big shot in front of us?"

"In our eyes, he is no different from Brian Hill."

"I'm not exaggerating when I tell you that if your coach wants to make a profit, it won't take more than a week to get him out of the position of general manager of the Heat."

Jordan said with a smirk, not noticing the expression on the side of chief assistant Brian Hill.

Old Hill couldn't wait to go up and give Jordan a slap in the face. If you want to brag, brag. Why do you want me to back him up?

Kongbu glared at Jordan and told the old gangster to stop talking.

Jordan also noticed Old Hill's embarrassed expression and was just thinking of saying something to appease Old Hill.

The door to the training ground was kicked open with a bang.

A middle-aged white lady, who looked to be in her forties or fifties, barged in in a hurry.

"Kong, long time no see. If you have time, you are welcome to visit me at home."

"Scotty, how are you doing lately?"

The visitor was none other than Jordan's first wife, Juanita, who came in and said hello to Combs and Pippen.

Juanita obviously got the paternity test results and came to Jordan to accuse him, but after seeing two acquaintances, Kongbu and Pippen, she still said hello.

I have to say that Juanita is indeed an amazing woman for being able to live with a guy like Jordan for more than ten years.

"Michael, you are a cruel person!"

"You hide it deeper than anyone else!"

Juanita threw the appraisal report directly in front of Jordan.

Jordan's expression changed drastically. Looking at this situation, it was obvious that Sly was really his own flesh and blood.

He didn't know whether to be happy or desperate for a moment.

"Divorce! Keep the phone open and wait for a call from my lawyer!"

After that, Juanita turned and left.

Jordan picked up the appraisal report on the ground and took Kongbu back to his office quickly.

"God, I now doubt that I am dreaming. Is this true?"

"Sly is really my child? How is this possible!"

Jordan didn't seem to take the divorce to heart. Maybe he also knew that it was only a matter of time before he and Juanita divorced, and this incident was just a trigger.

"The report has come out, so it must be true."

"It's not convenient for me, an outsider, to get involved in your family affairs. I'm going to leave first."

Kongbu felt guilty as a thief and wanted to leave quickly for fear of being exposed.

"etc!"

"Kong, how are you going to treat Sli next?"

These words confused Kongbu. How should he treat Sli? How else should he treat him? Treat him as his nephew.

"I mean, you're not going to just play him for six minutes, are you?"

"He is very strong, young, and has extremely high training value. I even have a premonition that he will become the next me."

"And he is my child. Even if I am not prepared to make this news public, I don't want my child to only play six minutes a game."

Jordan has already begun to complain about Slim.

Kongbu wished he could slap himself in the mouth, why did he have to be so troublesome and appointed Slee to succeed Jordan? Now that it's fine, he made a mess.

Kongbu knows very well what level Sili is at.

For six minutes, he was another Jordan. During the rest of the time, his combat ability was even worse than before. Let alone the NBA level, he would have to sit on the bench in the CBA. Such strength would be a disaster on the court.

It's a pity that only he knows about this matter, and Kongbu can't explain it to Jordan.

In the eyes of the outside world, Sli's performance only gave him six minutes of playing time. This arrangement by Kongbu was a bit unkind.

"Okay, I will increase Sly's playing time appropriately."

Kongbu shrugged and said helplessly.

"Just to increase the playing time? Aren't you going to let him play?"

"His fighting power is several levels better than Gil's. Why do you prefer Gil?"

Jordan was dissatisfied with Kongbu's arrangement.

In fact, if Kongbu prefers Gill, it's not because there is no one available. If he has shooting guards like McGrady and Kobe, how can he use Gill.

"Impossible, you have to give Sly some time to adapt."

"It's not a good thing to encourage others to thrive. By the way, you don't know what it means to encourage others to thrive. Let me tell you."

Jordan was speechless. He suspected that Kongbu was perfunctory, but there was no evidence.

The next game is against the Toronto Rams, which is another tough battle.

The relationship between Kongbu and Menglong has always been good. Even though Menglong has now carried out a purge of the team's management, their new management still maintains close contact with Kongbu.

In addition, the four core players in the Menglong team were all brought up by Kong Bu. Even though Kongbu has left the Menglong team for a long time, he still has a strong influence on the Menglong team.

The night the Menglongs arrived in Charlotte, Combs invited them to dinner.

The current coach of the Menglong team is named Kevin O'Neal, who has the same surname as O'Neill, but he is a white coach.

In the past few years, he was an assistant coach under Van Gundy Jr., in 2001 he was an assistant coach under the Carlisle Pistons, and last season he was an assistant coach to Malone Jr. in the Nuggets. Therefore, this coach who has almost no sense of presence in NBA history,

It can also be regarded as half of Kong Bu's direct lineage.

If we were looking for a coach who least resembles a head coach in NBA history, Kevin O'Neal would definitely rank first. He doesn't look like a serious coach. At first glance, he looks more like an artistic painter or movie director.

Kevin O'Neal was extremely excited to be hosted by Kongbu for a banquet, and he has been humbly asking Kongbu for advice on how to boost the Menglong's combat effectiveness.

The Menglong have a very good lineup, but unfortunately their record this season is not ideal and they only rank fifth in the Eastern Conference.

Parker, Carter, Kirilenko and Boozer are all in their prime. Logically speaking, such a lineup must be at least one of the top three in the Eastern Conference.

Kongbu had nothing to do with Kevin O'Neal's request for advice. The Menglong's poor record had nothing to do with the coach, it was entirely due to the lack of tacit understanding between the players.

The Mongolian backcourt consists of Parker and Carter, both of whom are big fans of the ball. Kirilenko and Boozer, who are new to the team, of course also want the ball to increase their average points per game.

In fact, no player doesn't want to score more points, which means how big a contract he can sign in the future.

When other abilities are equivalent, a player who averages 10 points per game and a player who averages 20 points per game will definitely not get the same contract.

Menglong's frontcourt and backcourt have a natural and irreconcilable contradiction.

Their relationship is like a half-way couple, they are on guard against each other, neither one wants to suffer and take advantage of the other.

When Kongbu was coaching, most of the players on the team were selected by Kongbu from the draft. They were originally newcomers, and with the support of Kongbu, the patriarch, they were considered the first couple, so they could accept even a slight loss.

…

In the evening of the next day, the Bobcats started their home game against the Toronto Rams.

After the game started, because the Bobcats had O'Pang in the basket, the advantage was quite obvious. Fortunately, the Menglong were not vegetarians. Carter, who was in the second position, completely defeated Gill and led the team to stabilize the situation.

Jordan was sitting next to the team's bench, winking at Combs and asking him to replace Slee quickly.

Kongbu had no choice but to call a timeout, replaced Gill and put on Slee.
