The team entering the playoffs is in the process of emergency preparation, and the fishing team has not been idle when they go home early. Just like the Nets team, they have sharpened their swords to the head coach.
After Jacques Vaughn's class, the Nets' coach has always been the assistant coach Olli. During this period, the Nets have also been looking for a suitable head coach. It's no wonder that he has been found. He is the assistant coach of Kings Hoardi Fernandez.
What's interesting is that King will continue to play the play off game. Before the game is finished, the backyard is on fire. Just say whether you deliberately played the Nets.
In fact, Fernandes is not the first choice for the Nets. Buden Holzer, the former head coach of the Bucks, is the best choice for them. It is understood that the two sides have not been able to reach an agreement because of the salary problem. Finally, the Nets chose Fernandes instead of the first choice.
Anyway, the Nets have had a lot of trouble in recent years. Including Fernandes, this is the fifth head coach Cai has brought to the team in four years.
In 2019, Atkinson was the head coach at that time, which was also his third year in the Nets. In this year, he had two giants under his command, Adu and Ou Shenxian, but his record was not very good, only 28-34. Then he was fired. In three years in the Nets, his record in coaching was 118-190, with a victory rate of 38.3%.
Then the chief assistant coach Jacques Vaughn came on top temporarily. After the season ended, Cai's old friend Nash officially took the helm, followed by Dengo. However, under the guidance of rookie coach Nash, the three giants of the Nets did not play their proper chemical reaction. In addition to the injury problem, the three giants only played 16 games together.
Under the guidance of Nash, the Nets entered the playoffs twice, with the best result being the eastern semi-finals. In 2022, with the collapse of the three giants, Nash also resigned, leaving only the team's best record of 94 wins and 67 losses.
After Nash left school, Jacques Vaughn was appointed for the second time. After the last experience, he also led the team to a record of 12 wins and 1 losses, and won the Best Coach of the Eastern Month. When he saw Vaughn was so "excellent", Cai was also impressed. Later, he signed a multi-year contract with him and officially hired him as the head coach.
But just one year later, that is, this year, Mr. Cai could not bear it, and fired the former. Vaughn's coaching record was 71-61, and the playoffs were 0-8. The failure of the playoffs was the main reason for Vaughn's dismissal.
After Vaughn was fired, assistant coach Kevin Ollie took over temporarily.
After changing five coaches in four years, Boss Cai is rich and headstrong. In addition, he has to sigh that coaching is really a high-risk profession.
This year is also the first time for the Nets to miss the playoffs in the past six years. Frequent changes in the head coach cannot bring about a qualitative leap for the Nets. In the past six years, they have had a total of five playoff trips, but four round trips, one of which was swept by the three giants during the period and one stopped in the eastern semi-finals.
This season, the Nets' record is 32-50, ranking 11th in the East. In addition, the Nets don't have many draft rights. In the next few years, they have no choice but to play poorly, but when will they be the top.
