What are the rules of Li Liang's NBA career in the past four years?

In general, there are three rules:

One, the teams are different every year.

Second, you can win championships with different teams every year.

Third, having the same coach -- Mike Brown -- on a different team every year.

Since the Los Angeles Lakers, the two have formed an indissoluble bond.

Mike Brown's coaching fate was rewritten from then on, and he began to wander with Li Liang.

For this reason, Mike Brown began to encounter a lot of opposition from his family.

After leaving the Clippers, his children had to follow their father to transfer schools.

I went to Indiana for a while, and went to Oklahoma City for a while. Every time I leave a city, it means that I have finally gotten used to the life, and I have finally begun to integrate into the social circle. It is indeed a kind of harm to the child.

In the fifth year, after Li Liang decided to leave Oklahoma City and go to a new place, Mike Brown's wife hoped that her husband would not follow him.

"You just marry Bruce Lee." The wife even said angrily.

Mike Brown wanted to, but unfortunately he didn't have this opportunity.

During the offseason, Mike Brown participated in several training camps, training with the stars while learning new coaching knowledge.

For anyone working in basketball, the learning is endless.

In this competitive league, every season brings new changes.

If you dwell on past glories and achievements, you will quickly become a stepping stone for others.

While recharging himself, Brown also paid attention to the progress of the Olympic Games.

He was originally invited to join the U.S. national team coaching staff, but after weighing it, Brown still refused.

The Olympic coaching staff is too busy, so he still needs to spend more time with his family.

Li Liang's Olympic runner-up performance made Brown both surprised and normal.

This guy is really too strong.

After watching his Olympic games, Brown was sure that Li Liang was still improving.

It was terrible.

Brown is not very concerned about which team Li Liang will go to in the future.

His contract with the Thunder is only one year. Since June, as soon as the finals are over, many teams have contacted Brown, hoping that he will go.

Some teams hope that Brown can bring new changes to the team.

Some hope to use Brown as bait to attract Li Liang.

Some needed Brown's experience to deal with Li Liang.

Brown refused one by one, and the objects of rejection included strong teams such as the Cavaliers, Lakers, and Warriors.

He was waiting for that person's call.

Even if his family objected, he couldn't resist that kind of temptation-the development plan of the strongest player in history.

On August 22, the news that James joined the Warriors came, which surprised Brown.

He didn't expect that the proud little emperor had been tormented by successive runners-up and embarked on the most difficult path.

The name of the second child in a thousand years is really too uncomfortable for people.

Kobe was right, the runner-up is the biggest loser.

Now that James has gone to the Warriors, it is impossible for Li Liang to go to Oakland.

Brown really hopes that Li Liang will go to the Bay Area, where the living and working environment is really quite good.

Unfortunately, Li Liang did not.

Brown was ready to go to the backcountry again.

As a result, on August 23rd, Brown received a call from Li Liang.

Few people know Li Liang's mobile phone number, and only a few best friends around him have his mobile phone number.

When Brown saw Li Liang calling, he knew in his heart that he must have somewhere to go!

Quickly connected the phone.

"Hi Mike, I've got a new job."

"Congratulations Bruce, then I also have a new job."

"Yes, new job, in Sacramento, California."

"Sacramento? Man, you've walked the hardest road."

"Yes, it is very difficult. I hope we will have a good cooperation in the new season. We will come to Sacramento tomorrow. We have some things to discuss, and your contract. I have already agreed with Divac and will give you a good deal." treatment."

The two have worked together for many years, so there is no need to say more polite words.

Brown's heart was filled with joy, and he didn't even discuss it with his family, but told them the news directly.

After some quarreling, Brown told his wife that he would stay in Sacramento for at least three years this time, and he didn't have to worry about changing places all the time.

Only then did the wife die down and agree with her husband to go to work in Sacramento.

On August 24th, Brown excitedly flew to Sacramento to report. Li Liang and Divac drove to the airport to pick Brown up.

However, in the car, Brown heard a news that shocked him. This time he was invited to the Kings, not as the head coach, but as an assistant coach.

"What? Assistant coach again? I've been an assistant coach for three years."

After leaving the Lakers, Mike Brown served as an assistant coach in the Clippers, Pacers and Thunder.

Although he won many championships, he was downgraded from a champion coach to an assistant coach, which still had some impact on him.

At least, his son can't always see him on live TV, and the TV station doesn't show the assistant coach much.

Hearing this news, Mike Brown felt a little dissatisfied.

Because as far as he knows, the Kings have never hired a new head coach.

He thought it was finally time for him to show his ambitions, but he didn't know that he was still an assistant coach.

He looked at Li Liang and said, "Bruce, you didn't tell me that you were an assistant coach before you came here. In fact, I can be the head coach."

Li Liangdao: "That's right, I know you have the ability Mike, but the Kings already have a candidate for the head coach, and they are very suitable for you."

"Who? Lu? Why is he?" Tyronn Lu also ended his career as an assistant coach in the Cavaliers after the finals.

Mike Brown thought the Kings made Lue the head coach. Together with Mike Brown, he worked as an assistant coach in the Clippers.

The Cavaliers will launch a new reconstruction plan with Irving and George at the core.

Li Liang shook his head and said, "Lou, like you, is the team's assistant coach, as well as D'Antoni."

Mike Brown was taken aback.

Tyronn Lue and D'Antoni are both capable head coaches in the league.

Especially D'Antoni, once the best coach, worked as an assistant coach in Philadelphia for a while last season.

It is said that the Houston Rockets invited him to be the head coach in June.

But after some weighing, D'Antoni gave up, mainly because he thought the Rockets had Dwight Howard, which didn't match his style of play.

Didn't expect him to accept the invitation of the king's assistant coach?

Unbelievable, who is the new head coach of the Kings, so that D'Antoni is willing to be an assistant?

"Who is the head coach? Could it be... Could it be Phil?"

Mike Brown thought of Phil Jackson, and there have been rumors that Phil Jackson wants to quit the muddy pit in New York and return to the coach.

It feels like Phil Jackson has such a big face, and he can let Lu and D'Antoni be his assistant coaches so quickly.

Unexpectedly, Li Liang shook his head and said: "Phil is no longer good, he is already a person from the previous era. The new head coach is a brand new, rising, newcomer who will definitely shine in the coaching world ! That person is, I, Bruce Lee!"

Mike Brown was stunned. Li Liang even had to do the coaching job?

But it's normal to think about it. As a player, he may really have no desires.

Only by being a coach can he satisfy his desire to control.

"So... so you came to coach, how did you recruit Lue and D'Antoni? Did they know? They just said yes?"

Divac responded to Mike Brown's question, "They said yes because ... we gave too much."

"How much?" Brown asked.

Divac gestured to Mike Brown, telling him what his salary would be when he arrived in Sacramento.

Brown pushed down his glasses and said: "I am very happy to work as an assistant coach. In the past three years, I have done very well and won three championships. I think I have the qualifications. Not for money, I Just wanted to work with Bruce Lee."
