Guardiola gives lessons to Joe Mazzola

Before the Boston Celtics vs Dallas Mavericks game in the NBA Finals, Pep Guardiola, the coach of Manchester City, was seen giving instructions to Joe Mazzola, the coach of Boston Celtics. The reason is that Mazzola had participated in Manchester City's training a few weeks ago, and expressed his admiration for Guardiola's training methods.

This event raised several questions about the influence of football on basketball, especially with Steve Kerr, the coach of the Golden State Warriors, confirming that his style was influenced by the Spanish coach's training philosophy (tiki-taka, moving the ball quickly and finding spaces to shoot three-pointers).
