After the game, Pleasance made a point to find Tracy McGrady and ask if there was a problem between them.
If there was one thing Pleasance had learned from Rivers's dismissal, it was the importance of communicating well with the team's stars.
Pleasance couldn't be bothered to worry about whether asking so directly would undermine his authority as head coach.
'I was just an assistant coach, after all.'
"No problem at all." The out-of-the-blue question caught Tracy McGrady off guard.
Seeing Pleasance's knitted brow, Tracy McGrady said, "Don't worry, Coach. While Hill is out, I'll do my best to help the team win."
He thought Pleasance was unhappy with his performance.
It was true; his first-half performance had been a mess. He had been too impatient.
Fortunately, his idol had been paying attention to him.
That was why Tracy McGrady was in such a good mood now.
Meanwhile, Hill was also surrounded by reporters.
As was Chen Yu.
No one knew Hill's situation better than Chen Yu.
