Yesterday, Duke University's Meritorious Coach
Mike Krzyzewski
The home curtain call of his coaching career was ushered in
A week before the start of this game
The average ticket price has been hyped to $5307
The highest ticket price in the front row even reaches 7w US knife or more
Probably you for such a fare
Nothing is too clear about the concept
In 2010 there were statistics since
The whole world of sports
Only 3 Super Bowl games can be higher than it
That's right, an American college basketball game
It has achieved a real sense of the crowded alley
Well, this coach is called "Old K."
What's so unique about it?
Can it be so admired at the end of the curtain
Let's listen to his domineering self-introduction:
"I don't think I'm a basketball coach
It's a leader who happens to get into basketball."
Old K's youth
It's full of legends
He attended the U.S. Army Officer College
He joined the U.S. Army in 1969 and served as an officer
After three years of service
The 25-year-old returned to his alma mater as a basketball head coach
Since then, he has begun a long coaching career
He is an NCAA Meritorious Coach
Coach K was inducted into the Nye-Smith Basketball Hall of Fame in 2001
He has taught Duke University for 42 years
Led the team to several NCAA finals
Won 5 NCAA championships
For Duke, it continues the tradition of toughness, teamwork, and low-key
Grant Hill, Sean Battier,
Carlos Boozer, Irving, Tatum
These shiny names
All by Coach K
Coach K is the first Chim-Jap coach in NCAA history
At the home of Duke University
There is a floor
It is named after Coach K
So to speak
He started a dynasty of his own in the NCAA
However, unlike the NBA
Want to start a dynasty in the NCAA
Extremely difficult
NCAA personnel turnover is frequent
But anyone who has achieved something in college
Basically all went to the NBA
So for the famous coaches
A year ago it was the heyday of the lineup
It was completely rebuilt a year later
It's just plain routine
In this case
In 42 years of coaching history
The winning percentage of the old K-led team can be described as horror
In a way
The old K is the most special of the NCAA's active coaches
He's not a character coach
Nor does it promote any devil training
But in his body can exude a special charm
So much so that every player respects him
Obey Him unconditionally
Coach Old K isn't just Duke's pride
He is the pride of the people of the United States
He was once in danger and was ordered to revive the "Dream Team"
Time goes back to 2005
The most difficult time for the U.S. men's basketball team
Coach K took over the national team's coaching whip
At that time, the U.S. men's basketball team suffered successive defeats on the world stage
6th at the 2002 Indianapolis World Championships
Bronze medal at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games
What Coach K needs to do
It is to lead the American team back to the top of the world basketball
Team USA has always formed a team on an ad hoc basis
And the selection criteria have always been to gather stars
Rather than forming a real team
Many superstars refuse to play for various reasons
The national team coach is also changed once a year
Address these issues
Coach K began his reforms
Defeated Spain at the 2008 Olympics to win the championship
He won the 2010 World Championships in Turkey
He defended his title at the 2012 Olympics
2014 World Cup Champion
The 2016 Olympics reached the top again
This is the record of the U.S. men's basketball team under Coach K
The only game the Generals lost
It was the loss to Greece at the 2006 World Championships in Japan
The group is dominating one side
NBA superstars with eyes above the top
Under the old K coach, he was both docile and obedient
Whether it's Kobe, or James
When talking about old K
There is only one word
wear
In 2017, Coach K was released and returned to the field
Removed the coaching whip of the Head Coach of the U.S. Men's Basketball Team
Spurs coach Popovich
Became his successor
But no matter how legendary Bobo is in the NBA
He couldn't be like Old K either
Let the U.S. men's basketball team play invincible all over the world
Although the NBA has repeatedly thrown an olive branch
Coach K has never set foot in the business league half a step
Some may think
Coach K has never coached the NBA so far
It is a big regret in basketball
But think in reverse
Old K's biggest legend
Maybe he never coached the NBA
Because in the purest NCAA
And the most talked about olympic men's basketball history
All written in his legend
And cannot be surpassed
