After the end of the NBA regular season, many team coaches were cut because of poor records, either the coaching ability is really not enough, or it is to give the team a back, like the Lakers' Vogel, the champion coach, but this season's Lakers role players are too poor, Vogel is also a clever woman, sitting on the big three lose, he can only be overshadowed, in addition, Gentry and Borrego are only offensive and will not defend the manager, they are cut is reasonable.
And now the playoffs are in full swing, for now many teams have not played the expected performance, if the record is not ideal, the manager may eventually be cut, although they lead the team into the playoffs, but can enter the playoffs, how many teams do not have the ambition to rush to the championship? Sometimes the layoffs are to make the team better, sometimes it's to reassure the fans and players, and today we'll take a look at the five managers who have been laid off or laid off after the playoffs.
Nash doesn't live up to his name
Nash's dismissal was loud as early as last season, but considering that the big three except Durant's other two were injured, the team can also accept that they snatched seven losses to the championship Bucks, but this season the Nets are likely to be swept out in the first round of the playoffs, holding good cards such as Durant and Irving, and the result is this bear-like, so who can see the estimate is unacceptable, so Nash is likely to be dismissed.
When the Nets were 0-3 behind the Celtics, Irving questioned Nash's employment in an interview, Ade, who averaged 13 points per game in the regular season, was in such good shape, but now it was refrigerated, Nash would rather use Griffin than Ade, his idea is that the opponent plays five small and I play five small, which doesn't let the opponent lead the nose away? Afraid to be bold in rotating and employing people, he didn't learn a single useful thing from Cole.
Often when the team needs to call a timeout, we friends who often watch the ball know when to call a timeout, but Nash is biased, and the offensive and defensive ends of the team system are also useless, except for Durant and Irving, there is no tactic to speak of, Durant was very uncomfortable by the Celtics, and to this day Nash has not come up with a cracking strategy.
Last season, the Nets played well, I think it may be the reason for D'Antoni, not Nash, D'Antoni is a tactical master, Nash although the player period is a super point guard of the two MVP, but the player period may not be able to become a top manager, on the contrary, you see Cole, Phil Jackson These players are very general, the team is very strong, Nash really should learn how to coach.
McMillan suppresses talent
McMillan built the top team basketball and defense for the Pacers during the Pacers period, he once led the Pacers to even fight with 18 James to grab seven, and the core of the team at that time was only Oladipo and Sa, so it also made McMillan famous, after leaving the Pacers, the Eagles immediately took him, and as a result, McMillan led the team to the division finals last season, which was very good.
But now it seems that last season was more of a luck component, the Knicks and 76ers have obvious weaknesses, this season's regular season Hawks have not played a decent performance, almost missed the playoffs, to the eighth division to reach the playoffs, in the face of a more comprehensive offensive and defensive Heat, it is estimated that McMillan and his Eagles are difficult to escape the ascension.
If the first round of the series is eliminated, perhaps fans can accept it, but it is estimated that the players and management can not accept, first of all, collins problem, a career three years to play an average of 21 + 10 talent inside line, now reduced to the offensive end of the spectator, so far in the playoffs averaged 9.7 points and 6.3 rebounds per game, but the shooting rate is as high as 50%, three-point shooting rate of 52%.
Collins is in good shape from the efficiency point of view, but he can't get the ball, as early as the regular season Collins complained about the ball problem, but McMillan insisted on playing his three ball-holding cores: Trae Young, Hurther and Bogdan, Collins had no chance, it is estimated that Collins will put pressure on the offseason, or force the palace, so that a forward with all-star potential and a manager choose one, how the Eagles should choose, everyone can think.
Snyder was stubborn
Last season, the Jazz played the league's first record, but in the second round of the playoffs, they were eliminated by the single-core George, and this year the Jazz had a total of three All-Stars, namely Conley, Mitchell and Gobert, and the team and super shooter Borgdan also have a near-All-Star level, it is such a lineup that is broken by an All-Star opponent, and Tyrone Lu just used a small move to play big.
This year's playoffs against the Lone Ranger, Kidd is also this set, although now the two sides of the big score is 2-2, but there are three Games Doncic did not play, and the fourth game lone ranger in the last half minute to lead by 4 points, Powell if two free throws into one result is different, the result of two penalties are all lost, this is luck, jazz high probability or can not beat the lone ranger, they have obvious weakness, even if it is across the lone ranger, the Jazz are not far away.
This team has obvious weakness is Gobert, but Snyder is not moved at all when the opponent attacks Gobert, dead or alive Gobert, in fact, if you think about it carefully, you can understand that Gobert has a top-level protective frame and height advantage, but Gobert's height advantage is not used on the offensive end, and most of the rounds after blocking and dismantling can not get the ball, a 200 million center as a pure blue collar.
In this case, Gobert is useless at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, Mitchell is so inefficient on the offensive end, Snyder does not know how to distribute the ball reasonably, let him play blindly, let Conley organize the team, or let Bojan get more shots, maybe the Jazz will play better, and Snyder also plays magic balls, the rockets and Bucks proved that magic balls are not good in the past few years, he still plays like this. This team has problems with both cores, if the offseason rebuilds, Snyder may stay, if he still wants to keep the core, then Snyder will inevitably have to carry the pot, stubborn, do not know how to adapt, it is estimated that the Lakers will not be interested in him.
Finch's on-site adaptability is poor
The Timberwolves made the playoffs seventh in the West this season as a surprise, a team that has not risen for many years, but this season has unexpectedly risen, and is this the reason for Finch? I think his role is not big, more is the defense brought by Beverley and the growth of the three cores, the three cores are one eye, two champions are this talent, and not many teams can withstand it, and Brooks led the Thunder three less than one reason.
And in the third game of the previous series grizzlies and Timberwolves, Finch's lack of coaching ability appeared, wolves led by 26 points, the result of the opponent in the third quarter, supposedly the coach suspended to adjust, the result of Finch did not call, he said after the game that he wanted to save until the fourth quarter to use, but the fourth quarter did not call a timeout, let the players play, and eventually led to the team's loss.
Finch has not been a head coach like Nash before, more of a teaching assistant, he has served as an assistant coach in the Rockets, Nuggets, Pelicans and Raptors, and there is no bright system since joining the Timberwolves, that is, the three-core round, Downs finished, Edwards came again, and then Russell coordinated the overall situation.
If they can cross the Grizzlies, maybe Finch can stay, but if they can't, now that Wolves have seen the growth of the three cores, they may not be able to wait to get the results. Will Grizzlies coach Jenkins be cut? I don't think this is possible, and you can see that the Grizzlies are now playing very maturely, and they are the second team in the league with the regular season record, which is much better than Finch.
Donovan may have been pitted by three cores
College coach Donovan, once into the league period is a famous tactical master, but this tactical master seems to be the best at tactics in addition to the main star is no other, before leading the Thunder in a few seasons although he can enter the playoffs, but more is the credit of Wei Shao, his role does not seem so big, after joining the Bulls, although this season led the team to the playoffs, but more is still caused by the team stars.
Raven, DeRozan and Vucevic are not superstars, but they are also all-Star level, such a triple core to let the team finally reach the playoffs is also deserved, the key is that the Bulls' record after the All-Star has fallen all the way, their record after the All-Star is the third-to-last in the league, only better than the two rotten teams, the Bulls are not a rotten team, they were previously the first in the division, which also shows that Donovan's ability to adjust is very limited.
So far in the playoffs, the Bulls 1-3 Bucks, the only win is the Bucks slack in the first half, the second half Middleton injured the Bulls won, the last two Bucks have always maintained their strength, the Bulls are not at all, in fact, Donovan also came up with a strategy, that is, to play Vucevic more blocking and dismantling bombs, but Vucevic opportunities came out is not able to grasp ah.
The Bulls' three cores are not trustworthy players at key moments, more like pseudo-stars, Donovan still has certain abilities, at least stronger than Finch and Nash, but there is no way to put such a triple core on the stall, and if you don't get the offseason, you will have to be cut, and the Bulls with three stars will certainly not be satisfied with the first round of the playoffs.
Speaking of which, do you have anything to say about these five managers? Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
