English term or phrase: puts his children and teams to bed
Dear Colleagues,
Happy new year.

This line in English literally means likes to put his children to bed, but he can also put his
opponents to sleep.

More text related to the ohrase:

For so many famous athletes, their prolific scoring and
on-field skills are all you know about them (Michael Jordan for example.) Allen is quite different.
His opinions are very strong. And he is known for his controversy off the court as much as his
game on the court. He also has a very gentle side though and is a loving father.

I need your help to adapt this phrase and get the relevant meaning in Arabic to the most acceptable level.

Thanks
