Min Congda and Ada drove to a hospital in Los Angeles.
At the door of the intensive care unit, he saw Steve Kerr, Lucas, Kim Hughes and others.
Min Congda stepped forward and asked: "What happened? Why did Mike fall ill? Is it a big problem?"
Steve Kerr said: "It's not a big problem. He felt uncomfortable with his heart during training. We rushed him to the hospital and notified you. The doctor said it might be myocarditis. We don't know what the condition is yet." "
Former NBA veteran players like Mike Dunleavy often had heart problems due to excessive exercise and tall stature when they were young.
Chamberlain, Maravich, Dennis Johnson and others all died of heart attacks when they were not too old.
Therefore, for them, once their heart feels uncomfortable, they will be sent to the hospital immediately, otherwise their lives will be in danger.
Min Congda looked grave and asked: "Why did you suddenly have a heart problem? Lao Deng is not satisfied with the team's operation? Or did someone make him angry?"
After sending away Baron Davis, the Clippers faced a new situation.
Min Congda wondered if Lao Deng was anxious because of this?
Cole shook his head and said: "No, everyone was training and the situation was very good. Suddenly he sat on the ground and said that his heart was not feeling well. There were no signs."
It seems to be caused by old age and high work pressure.
After waiting anxiously for about 20 minutes, the doctor came out and said that Mike Dunleavy was in stable condition and there was no serious problem.
However, the doctor said: "Mr. Dunleavy's physical condition may no longer be suitable for him to continue to be the team's head coach. We should consider asking him to change his job or retire."
Dunleavy's contract as head coach this season has just expired and he is currently negotiating a new contract with Olshey.
As a result, Lao Deng's body couldn't bear it and he collapsed, and it was doubtful whether he could be the head coach next season.
Min Congda didn't think about these problems first. He, Cole and others went into the ward to visit Lao Deng.
Dunleavy's son plays for the Pacers, and his family hasn't arrived for a while.
This was the second time in recent times that Min Congda saw someone lying on the hospital bed like this.
I have to say that the NBA is a very stressful place to work.
Positions such as president and head coach require practitioners to have excellent physical fitness and abundant energy.
Otherwise, ordinary people simply cannot bear the huge pressure and intensity of work.
Dunleavy has been a coach for 20 years and has also been a professional athlete. His physical fitness is one of the best in a hundred.
Stern has been the president for 30 years. Every year he is so busy that his feet never touch the ground. His short body is filled with huge energy.
These two old men who were able to withstand pitfalls both collapsed in the face of pressure and heavy work.
Min Congda sat in front of Dunleavy's hospital bed and asked with concern: "Old Deng, how are you? You are busy at work, so you have to pay attention to your health. I didn't put any record pressure on you. Aren't these two seasons quite easy? "
Dunleavy took a breath, and when he saw Min Congda's face, an uncomfortable feeling came over him again.
F*ck, if you hadn’t been doing all kinds of dirty trading every day, would I have been scolded all the time?
Every time there was a trade or signing in the past two summers, Dunleavy was scolded for no apparent reason.
Bird, Popovich, Riley, these old rivals all seem to be sure that the Clippers' trade decision-maker is Mike Dunleavy.
After this year's draft, although no one called, Popovich still sent a text message, secretly accusing Deng of being behind the scenes and causing the Clippers to intercept Leonard.
This guy made Lao Deng so angry that he thought what Smart had done had anything to do with him!
On the contrary, it was Min Congda who took the lead in the transactions between the Lakers, Clippers, and Hornets. From the beginning to the end, no one criticized Min Congda.
Maybe everyone knows that Smart is a guy who is not easy to mess with.
So Persimmon picked on the weak one, bullied him, Old Dengtou, and used him as a target to vent his emotions.
As a result, Lao Deng's mood got worse and worse. With a new lineup for the new season, Dunleavy had no intention of coming up with new tactics and new lineups, so he left them all to Cole.
He felt his coaching career was almost over.
His brain can no longer accept many new things.
It happened that he felt unwell during this training, which may be an opportunity for him to retire.
But when he heard Min Congda say, "Isn't your job quite easy?", he became angry again.
Can a head coach's job be easy?
If it was easy, how could we reach the Western Conference Finals!
Thinking of this, Dunleavy felt unwilling to give in.
The Clippers have finally reached this point. They may be able to win the championship in the new season. Are they just going to quit?
Let that kid Steve Kerr pick the peaches?
Thinking of this, Dunleavy was a little reluctant.
"Smart, I'm fine...I..."
"Lao Deng, please stop talking and have a good rest. If you retire, the team will not let you go directly. How about leaving you a place with the Clippers as an assistant coach?"
Before Dunleavy could speak, he was interrupted again by Min Congda.
"Smart, I think..."
"Don't worry, Lao Deng, your salary will not be less. Even if you are an assistant coach, I will give you a big contract to ensure that your quality of life will not decline! You can retire with peace of mind and no worries."
"Smart..."
"Also, what are your thoughts on the new head coach for the new season and do you have any recommendations?"
Dunleavy originally wanted to say that I could still work for a while and that my heart problem was not a serious problem.
But it seemed that Min Congda didn't want to give him this chance, and he might have another heart attack if he kept talking.
Dunleavy had no choice but to cough and said: "Being an assistant coach is not bad. As for the head coach candidate, Smart, don't you already have one?"
The candidate Dunleavy is talking about is, of course, Steve Kerr.
Everyone believes that Min Congda signed Cole just to succeed Dunleavy.
Now that Dunleavy's contract has expired and his health is failing, this is naturally Cole's best chance to take over.
Cole looked nervous on the sidelines. This was indeed his opportunity to become the head coach.
He has many, many new ideas for the Clippers in the new season.
Trading away Baron Davis, Kerr thinks it is the right thing to do.
To make room for Curry and Harden, the two young people need room to grow.
The third season will be a breakout year for both of them.
If he can become the head coach of the Clippers, he is sure to bring the team into the top three in the Western Conference.
Several other assistant coaches, such as Kim Hughes and Lucas, are not head coach material.
Only Steve Kerr, who proved last season, is a very good offensive coach.
"You are right. I do already have a candidate for the new head coach in my mind. Everyone is very familiar with this person."
Cole unconsciously moved closer to Min Congda. He was about to announce the new coach.
"This person is right here!"
Some people died, but not completely...
