Although he was later replaced by Jackson, the "Zen master", and failed to take them to the championship, it is undeniable that he laid the foundation for the establishment of the Lakers dynasty. Del Harris is one of the best defensive coaches in NBA, with strong professionalism, strict training, advanced basketball concept, exquisite technical training and rich experience in on-the-spot command. He is not only a veteran, but also a * * *, which is deeply loved by players and friendly to us. In 2000, I helped China National Men's Basketball Team to train, and got a better understanding of the men's basketball team. American coaching career His early coaching career began at Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana. After becoming a professional coach, Harris became the assistant coach of Utah Star in Tom nisar's ABA League. After that, he became the assistant coach of Houston Rockets, and nisar Koch became the head coach after leaving the team. 198 1 season Harris led the team to the NBA finals, but the team lost to the Boston Celtics in the finals.

A few seasons later, Harris became donald nelson's deputy again and is now Avery Zhan Sen's assistant coach. His son is Larry Harris, the general manager of the Bucks. International Coaching Career 1998 World Men's Basketball Championship He became the assistant coach of American national men's basketball coach rudy tomjanovich, and the team finally won the bronze medal. In 2004, Del Harris coached the Asian basketball overlord China National Men's Basketball Team, and led the China team led by NBA All-Star Yao Ming to unexpectedly beat the European giants Serbia and Montenegro in the group stage of the 2004 Athens Olympic Games and reached the quarterfinals. Before becoming the head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, Harris was the special consultant of the Canadian men's basketball team and the head coach of the Kenhill basketball team in Canada. On February 20th, 2004, chinese basketball association held a press conference and officially announced that Harris, assistant coach of NBA Mavericks, was appointed as the head coach of China men's basketball team. The coaching staff includes Lithuanian coaches Junas, Adiljan and Ming Lulei, and team leader Kuang Lubin. Former head coach Jiang Xingquan remained as technical consultant. Chinese basketball association also announced that the list of China men's basketball players who will participate in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games will be announced before the end of the CBA Finals. The list will focus on the 2004 Athens Olympic Games and take into account the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The age composition of the team will include three generations of players, old, middle-aged and young, forming a lineup of old and new; The determination of the specific list should also listen to the opinions of the coach Harris and the coaching staff; At the same time, the China Men's Association will also publish the list of 30 Olympic teams in 2008, which will be changed every year to constantly replenish fresh blood. Del Harris learned that Junas had joined Harris, the former assistant coach of the Mavericks, in the United States with information about China men's basketball players, and they would arrive in Beijing in the near future. Chinese basketball association said that the first contract between Harris and Junas will be terminated after the Athens Olympic Games. Whether to renew the contract depends on the Olympic performance of China Men's Basketball Team. Chinese basketball association did not disclose the specific annual salary of Harris and Junas at the press conference. When the reporter asked about this matter, Hu Jiashi, an official of the Basketball Association, said that Harris and Junaz joined the China men's basketball team not for money, but for friendship and help to a great extent, rather than $65,438+$5,000 as previously mentioned by the media. Chinese basketball association also revealed that the selection of foreign coaches to coach the China men's basketball team actually began after the defeat of the Busan Asian Games in 2002, but there was no suitable candidate at that time, so Jiang Xingquan became the head coach and successfully completed the task of the AFC Champions League. Jiang Xingquan is very supportive of China Men's Basketball Team in selecting foreign coaches, and has given great help to the Basketball Association in selecting coaches. At today's press conference, the reporter also mentioned that Wang joined after Harris coached. Chinese basketball association said that if Harris hired Wang to join the team, it still depends on Wang's attitude, and everything depends on Wang himself. China men's basketball team will start training in mid-March to prepare for the Athens Olympic Games. The coaching experience in NBA is 1979- 1983, coaching Houston Rockets, regular season 14 1 win 187 loss, playoff 15 win 65438 loss. 1987- 199 1 coached milwaukee bucks, winning in the regular season 189 154, and winning in the playoffs 13. 1994- 1998 coached the Los Angeles Lakers, with 224 wins 1 16 losses in the regular season, 7 wins 19 losses in the playoffs, and 1995 was elected as the NBA coach of the year. 1976- 1979 has been an assistant coach in the rockets since 2004, in Kings 199 1- 1994 and in Mavericks 1999. In the 2008-09 season, he assisted Del Negro with the Bulls. During the 2009- 10 season, he also served as kiki vandeweghe's senior assistant for the New Jersey Nets. National team coaching experience 1998 coached the Canadian national team to participate in the 1994 World Championships. Del Harris and Yao Ming participated in the198 Athens World Championship with the US national team as teaching assistants from 65438 to 0998. On February 20th, 2004, he was appointed as the head coach of China Men's Basketball Team. Undoubtedly, the best record as a head coach was in 2004, when he and Yao Ming led the China men's basketball team to beat Simon, the world's number one team, and successfully reached the quarterfinals of the Athens Olympic Games, thus writing the history of basketball in China. 20 1 1, Harris, as the chief teaching assistant of john calipari, led Dominica to win the third place. Other coaching experience: 1969-1975 coached the Puerto Rican professional team. 1962- 1969 coaching, elham university team. 20 1 1 year 10 as the head coach of the legendary Texas team (affiliated to the NBA Development League) News information Save Private King Before deciding what can be brought to China basketball, at least one thing is worth our expectation: the old gentleman's "silver fox" may be the last hope to save Private King. In the past two summers, Wang's return has always been one of the focuses of China basketball. Although Wang has been criticized for this, it is useless to just blame him. After all, he is a basketball talent trained by our country. Judging from the performance of China men's basketball team in the last three games-World Championships, Asian Games and Asian Championships, no one in China can really replace Dazhi. In the two wars between Korea and South Korea, if the outside line intervened, Yao Ming's pressure on the inside line would not be so heavy, and Faye Wong would not be defeated in Busan. In this Athens Olympic Games, "Yao Ming-Wang" is still the most anticipated combination of China men's basketball team. The original historical reason why Dazhi failed to return is not important. What's important is that there is no smooth communication channel between him and Bayi team in these two summers, so that they lack the most basic mutual trust. Seeking truth from facts to solve problems, the most important thing is a person who can win the trust of both sides. This person is Harris. I hope Harris doesn't have preconceived ideas about the point of no return. What is worrying is that as a member of the Mavericks coaching staff, his first position should be the same as that of the Mavericks. But since he became the head coach of China men's basketball team, he must take the breakthrough of men's basketball team in the Olympic Games as the premise of interest. The ideal way is for Harris to communicate with Bayi Team and the General Political Department first, because the basketball management center no longer plays a key role in returning to China. Since he was expelled from the national team at the beginning, the premise of returning to the national team must first solve the problem of terminating his vacation, admit his mistakes, accept punishment and get forgiveness. Bayi team will continue to support him to play in NBA. If Harris can reach an agreement with Bayi team, then the information he brings to the exhibition is far more valuable than other indirect channels. This is a chance, maybe the last chance. After the Olympic Games, Daqi's position in China men's basketball team will soon disappear. It is quite surprising that the Milwaukee Bucks, the driving force behind forcing him to marry the United Arab League, "intercepted" Yi Jianlian. Everyone knows that Yi Jianlian has rejected the trial invitation of the Bucks before, and this time the Bucks' action is quite "forced marriage". In 2007, the NBA draft of Del Harris and Yi Jianlian was broadcast live by ESPN, and the hosts and experts in the live broadcast room put forward their own views on Yi Jianlian's future prospects. "Yi Jianlian is the kind of power forward who can play away from the basket and is very athletic." Fran Fisichella, an international player expert, said, "Yao Ming is an old academic school, and Yi Jianlian represents a new trend. Yi Jianlian likes to dunk on other people's heads, and his peripheral projection ability is quite good. " Coach "Silver Fox" Del Harris coached the China men's basketball team at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. He knows the characteristics of Yi Jianlian very well. It is worth mentioning that Larry Harris, the general manager of Bucks today, is Del Harris's son. Will there be some unknown secrets? "The Bucks really want to keep Yi Jianlian." Rick Boucher, an analyst at ESPN, said, "Interestingly, Harris hasn't seen many games about Yi Jianlian. He must have got a lot of information about Yi Jianlian from his father. " Of course, the scouts of the Bucks have been following Yi Jianlian for a long time, otherwise the Bucks wouldn't take risks rashly in such a high position as the sixth overall pick. Steven smith, another analyst in the studio, agrees with Boucher. He thinks that Larry Harris must have been influenced by his father in the process of choosing Yi Jianlian. "I like the choice made by the bucks." Mark jackson, a former assistant to the King, talked about his views on Yi Jianlian. "The Bucks said a long time ago that they wanted to get rid of Yi Jianlian, and now they finally got what they wanted." Bucks currently have an absolute advantage. If any team wants to trade Yi Jianlian, then everything depends on the bucks' face. "I think Larry's people have seen Yi Jianlian's game, which is enough." NBA expert Bilas said, "Even though Larry hasn't watched many Yi Jianlian games, it doesn't prevent him from making a final decision, because the general manager always relies on his scouts. If Del Harris were my father, I think I would trust his vision. " Del Harris is a senior coach in NBA, who has coached Rockets, Bucks and Lakers. The total record of NBA regular season is 554-457, with a winning percentage of 54.8%. Del Harris is one of the best defensive coaches in NBA, with strong professionalism, strict training, advanced basketball concept, exquisite technical training and rich experience in on-the-spot command. He is not only a veteran, but also rich in * * *, which is deeply loved by players. Del Harris, the new head coach of China National Men's Basketball Team, was interviewed by NBA official website on the 2nd, and expressed his views on becoming the first foreign head coach of China Men's Basketball Team. Harris said that the biggest difficulty in this job is the language. "There is no doubt about it," said Harris, a former Puerto Rican head coach, Canadian consultant and American assistant coach. "I used to teach in English. Although the official language of Puerto Rico is Spanish, they all know English. This will be the first time I have to rely on translation to complete my work. " "I have to learn some China basketball terms now, so as to minimize the language barrier during the Olympic Games, but it is not easy," Harris said. On February 6th, 2004, Del Harris and Junus Harris were appointed as the head coaches of the men's basketball team in China. His first test was the Athens Olympic Games in August. Harris was also hired by Yunus Kaslauskas, a former Dallas Mavericks consultant, and now he is training in China. Harris, currently an assistant coach of the Mavericks, will not go to China until the end of this NBA season. Harris said that his translator will be Bater's agent Xia Song. Through Junas and Xia Song, Harris got to know the China team to some extent. He thinks the biggest problem for China now is the defender. "China Sports Department has always attached great importance to the cultivation of tall players, so there are many good players between 2m 10 and 2m-25," Harris said. "but we are very short of defenders between 1m 83 and 1m 90. Even the defenders of the national team need to improve their skills. " "China defender's strength is shooting and passing, but the breakthrough technique is unprofessional. How to find a gap in the process of dribbling and complete the mid-range jumper is what they need to learn. Junas' first task in China is to improve his personal ability in the middle distance position. I hope that by August, we can have excellent players in this range. Although we have three players like Yao Ming, if we don't supplement the position of defender, we are still not competitive, "Harris said.
