Irving talks about Flagg: Play happily and enjoy the game while earning the respect of others with your performance

ESPN reporter Tim MacMahon reported that he wrote an article about some of Irving's suggestions for Flagg.

In the third quarter of the opening game, Flagg's debut performance was not as expected. He made more mistakes than he scored. When the Mavericks were 15 points behind the Spurs, Flagg returned to the court after a timeout. At this time, Irving came over and patted him on the shoulder. , encouraged him: "Just keep your head up."

Irving also said: "I told Flagg to enjoy the game and play happily. The work has just begun, but the situation he is in is very special. As the No. 1 pick, he still has to bear it. There will be pressure and the inner desire to prove yourself. You need to let everyone know your abilities and win their respect. This is the way to gain a foothold in this league." Irving added: "We have the goal of competing for the championship. But we also know that the team is in the growth and construction stage, not only now, but also for the future. The important thing is that he has a good mentality and he is very mature. It is rare to get an 18-year-old rookie in this situation. He is still a child and needs to develop."source:vn 7m cn bóng đá
