On May 10, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs continue to unfold, and the Warriors and the Grizzlies will usher in the G4 competition, and the Warriors are currently leading 2-1. Before the game, the Warriors suffered a sudden blow, the team's head coach Kerr tested positive for the epidemic and will miss G4 against the Grizzlies today, and Mike Brown will become the team's interim manager.
Originally, the Warriors were plagued by injuries, and Payton Jr. and Iguodala continued to be absent, but they did not expect the head coach to have another situation before the game. According to Warriors reporter Antony Slater, Cole has been wearing a mask for the past few days. This may have had some symptoms, but it was not diagnosed, and there was no absence from coaching, fortunately, the other players in the Warriors tested negative, and if there were any players absent from Bede, the trend of the series would be tilted towards the Grizzlies.
It is reported that Cole also coached the team's shooting training this morning, I don't know if he wore a mask during this period, if the players are also infected, it is dangerous. With Kerr's absence, the Warriors can only let assistant coach Brown serve as interim manager, and this position is still very familiar, this is his 14th interim manager in the playoffs, the first 13 games to win, 13 wins and 0 losses, to see if he can continue today's unbeaten record.
In addition, Brown also became the manager of both teams today. Earlier, the Kings officially announced Mike Brown as the team's manager, and the two sides reached a four-year contract. Unexpectedly, a few hours later, he became the interim coach of the Warriors, which is also the first time in NBA history that this situation has occurred. Before signing a contract with the Kings, the two sides agreed that Brown would serve as a Warriors assistant coach until the end of the season, and then travel to the Kings to report.
Earlier, Cole also spoke about Brown's role as King's manager, "He's an amazing coach and friend and we're all happy for him." Sacramento made a great choice. ”
