Feeling emotional, Hubie Brown’s heart monitor started beeping again, the ECG waveform was as unstable as a stormy sea, and the blood pressure numbers skyrocketed. His wife heard the alarm and immediately pushed the door: "Hubie!" "Alright, alright, I know, I’ll control it. Please, give me some space to talk to my players and disciples!" The door closed again, and Spoelstra handed Hubie Brown a glass of water, his emotions seemed to have calmed a bit. "You see, this is what I’ve become. As soon as I get emotional, my blood pressure gets out of control, my heart overworks. In the end, I still couldn’t win a ring in the modern basketball environment. But don’t stop because of me, I’m a relic of a bygone era. Roger, you’re a born leader, you know how to face adversity. This season, under your leadership, the team is in great shape, and I believe you can continue to lead them to the end." Hubie Brown had no worries about Roger, nor did he have the qualification to worry about a god. So after speaking, Hubie Brown looked at Erik Spoelstra, the one he truly needed to help. "Erik, I saw you looking dejected on TV, saw you not daring to lift your head at the press conference. Taking over the game suddenly must be tough, but professional sports are like this, things won’t always go as you wish, nor will they wait for you to be ready. Setbacks and difficulties are inevitable. They will weaken your willpower and bring down someone who was once strong." Spoelstra listened quietly, feeling that Hubie Brown was describing himself. "But as an old coach who started in the ’70s, I can responsibly tell you, it’s nothing, things will stay the same, trust me. These last two seasons, you’ve done 70% of the head coach’s work, you already have the capability to take up the reins independently. You and Roger can certainly achieve our set goals. That ring belongs to Oakland, it belongs to you. Think of those days in the basement editing videos, is it really harder now? No complaints, no surrender. Go, Erik, your time has come. Starting tonight, the reins officially pass to you." Erik Spoelstra didn’t respond, showed no reaction, just stood there blankly. To let Hubie Brown rest sooner, Roger and Spoelstra didn’t stay too long. As they left, Spoelstra sat at the hospital entrance and smoked a cigarette. Roger sat quietly beside him, saying nothing more. He thought Hubie Brown had made himself clear enough. If Spoelstra remained the same, Roger would have to continue fighting as if he had no head coach. After finishing a cigarette, Spoelstra stood up: "Let’s go back." It was the first thing he said after the press conference. "What’s the plan moving forward?" "I’ve always been the one making training plans, I’m involved in at least half of the game tactics, the only thing I need to learn is on-the-spot command, but in my hands, I happen to have one of the world’s best on-the-spot performing athletes. So what’s the plan moving forward? For my first playoff series as head coach, I’m going to cut up Phil Jackson!" With that, Spoelstra coolly crushed the cigarette butt to the ground. Watching this guy, who entered the industry as his personal video editor, grow into a head coach, Roger felt a sense of gratification akin to watching a son grow up. Go for it, it won’t be harder than Bronny James. Suddenly, Roger felt that nothing could stop this season’s Warriors. With emotions running high, Spoelstra put one foot on a chair and shouted: "I will no longer bow my head dejectedly as I did at the press conference. Whether it’s the Lakers, Spurs, Timberwolves, Pacers, or Pistons, none of them can bend my back anymore, no one can!" At this moment, a fierce-eyed cleaning lady at the hospital glared at Roger and Spoelstra. Spoelstra quickly took his foot off the bench, but the lady’s gaze didn’t soften because of it. She pointed at the cigarette butt on the ground and began scolding in a sharp voice: "Young man, how can you just throw things around!? Do you know how hard I work to clean!? How can you be so uncivilized!? I just saw you, crushed the cigarette butt and swore you would never bow again, but if you’re dreaming, do it elsewhere! Young people these days, always dreaming. If you’re so great, why don’t you take over the White House!?" "Sorry, sorry", under the lady’s strong scolding, Spoelstra apologized while picking up the cigarette butt from the ground and tossing it into the trash can, then urgently waved to Roger, "Let’s go, hurry up and go!" Roger smiled and shook his head, the man who vowed never to bow again, immediately bowed the very next second after saying that. Truly the fastest fall in the world. Luckily, no team would hire the cleaning lady as head coach. This meant Erik Spoelstra wouldn’t encounter the person he feared most on the court. ----------------- John Cage was penalized for repeatedly violating Oakland Arena’s regulations, and he’s not allowed to enter the arena again for the next week. Roger believes that the arena’s rules should be improved to be more humane.—"San Francisco Chronicle". If Oakland Arena does indeed allow fans to go shirtless in the future, believe me, there will be countless frenzied female fans forming a beautiful scenery for Roger.—"Oakland Daily News". Hubie Brown has confirmed he’ll miss the remainder of the season’s games, and Erik Spoelstra will lead the Warriors as interim head coach through the playoffs. Will this become an obstacle on the Warriors’ path to the championship?—"Slam". We lost the first game, but it’s just the start of a war. I will keep resisting, keep fighting until I take Roger down. I won’t let anyone tell me what I can or can’t do. What I can or can’t beat. Roger told me to go back to hell, OK, I’ll drag him in too!—Kobe Bryant, still full of confidence after scoring 50 points but losing to Roger. Did you see the look in his eyes when he said those words? He’s not like Satan, he is Satan himself! I don’t think he was joking, he’s going to make Roger go through hellish brutal battles!—Charles Barkley discussing Kobe’s remarks on the show.
