NBA beast center

Chapter 612 The new season is about to start

The overall strength of the red team of the Nets is still significantly stronger than that of the white team. Even though the white team resisted at the beginning, with the strength of the beast, the red team quickly opened up the point difference.

The final result is naturally that the red team wins, which seems both unexpected and reasonable.

But the coaching staff of the Nets don't think this team is already excellent and perfect. There are actually many problems with the team, both offensive and defensive.

The head coach of the Nets, Atkinson, is also an old coach. As early as 2004, he announced his retirement and began to coach, and served as an assistant coach for many teams. From 2015 to 2016, he served as the head coach of the Dominican National Men's Basketball Team. In 2016, he began to coach the Nets.

But in the NBA, Atkinson does not have a brilliant resume. He has been doing assistant coaching and player development work before, and the Nets are just the first NBA team he coached as a head coach.

Atkinson is an elegant coach, he rarely yells, so he rarely eats T.He advocates team offense, and his coaching style is a bit similar to the Spurs' team basketball, but it's not like it.

So like howard of the red team insisted on low post singles at the basket today, he didn't want to see it.He prefers to see the ball move, to see all kinds of screens, passes and cuts, and moves without the ball.

"Let the offense be completed in coordination as much as possible"-this is one of the offensive concepts that Atkinson has always advocated.

In Beast's view, Atkinson's idea was somewhat idealistic. The NBA is a stage for superstars. The regular season may rely on team offense to achieve a good record, but the playoffs, especially when they go deeper, often need to rely on the hard-breaking ability of the stars.

Of course, singles like Howard's is not a hard solution ability, it's called a top iron.At his peak, he was not a very good offensive player. He had very few offensive moves, except for the dunk, which was a stiff little hook. The offensive efficiency will drop significantly.

Howard, who is now 32 years old, is no longer able to fly infinitely and escape like he used to. In today's small ball era, his weakness in defending pick-and-rolls has made his defensive deterrence drop a lot.The offensive end can't open up space, the ball is slow and easy to make mistakes when being pinched, and the efficiency of singles is low.

From Beast's point of view, Howard needs to change his mind and stop thinking of himself as a superstar.Be realistic, can't you be a pie-eating man like Capela?It's already 2017, don't live in 2009!

After the intra-team match, Jeremy Lin said to Beast privately: "Tom, I think we should play more pick-and-rolls. Like Dwight, he played low post multiple times, not too..."

"It's not suitable, isn't it too inefficient?" Beast said what Jeremy Lin hadn't said.

Jeremy Lin scratched his head. He is not a person who likes to speak ill of his teammates behind their backs, but he thinks it is okay to simply discuss the game and not deal with people. After all, everyone has the same goal, to make the team better. good.

"I'll take care of this, don't worry!" Beast gave Jeremy Lin an affirmative reply, so that the latter can rest assured.

Jeremy Lin certainly believes that the beast can handle this matter well, he trusts this friend very much, this guy is really strong and tough, he is simply YYDS!

The Irving deal here is going very fast, because there are not many teams with bargaining chips, and the preseason is approaching, and many teams no longer want to go to war.

On October 10, the day before the start of the preseason, the Irving deal was finally settled.

Like the Beast in his previous life, the Cavaliers traded against the Celtics, but this time it was a three-party deal, and the other party was the Timberwolves.

The specific details of the transaction are as follows: the Cavaliers offer their first-round pick for next season and Irving, and the Celtics offer Thomas Jr., Jay Crowder, Zizic, the Nets pick for next season and their own first-round pick. sign.In the end, the Cavaliers got Thomas Jr., Crowder, and Love, the Celtics got Irving, and the Timberwolves got Zizic, the Nets pick for next season and the Cavaliers pick.

As for why the Timberwolves will join the three-way deal, it is obvious that it is not a day or two that they want to get rid of Love.Since having Towns, they no longer need Love.It just so happened that the Cavaliers were interested in a space-based All-Star insider, so they immediately joined the trade.

In fact, the Cavaliers and the Timberwolves had already talked about the Love deal, just after the Beast jumped out of the contract to join the Nets.It's just that the Timberwolves don't like the Cavaliers' chips.

Well now, the Cavaliers have sold Irving, and the chips will be there soon.

The Timberwolves exchanged Love for 3 first-round picks (Zizic is this year's first-round pick), which met their asking price.

The Cavaliers can be regarded as forming the Big Three of James, Love, and Thomas Jr., and they have also won an excellent 3D like Crowder. They instantly have the strength to compete for the championship again.

But many experts also pointed out that although Thomas Jr. was a candidate for the MVP of the regular season last season, because of his butt injury, he will return in December at the earliest, and it is hard to say how he will be after his comeback.

Moreover, both Love and Thomas Jr. have defensive weaknesses. However, this Cavaliers team has too few players who can defend, either too old or too short. Compared with last season's Cavaliers, the overall defensive ability has dropped significantly.

Of course, in any case, the Cavaliers management has tried its best.Irving's application for a trade is beyond their control. Within the limited range of options, they have already formed the best possible lineup for James.

After all, not every team has the opportunity to sign migrant workers naked.

Beast remembered that the Celtics only had one first-round pick in their previous life, which was the Nets pick for next season.But this time there are two. Obviously because of his joining, the value of the Nets' pick for next season has dropped.Originally, there was a possibility of being the number one lottery, but now that the lottery is up, it is natural to increase the price.

On October 10, the Nets started their preseason tour.

The performance of the Nets in the preseason is still very good, winning 4 games in 3 preseason games.

But Beast knows very well that playing well in the preseason doesn't mean anything, and they won't fight you for real.

The first game of the Nets' regular season will be an away game against the Pacers on the 19th of this month.

They still have a period of time to train and adjust. Before the season, the major media predicted their record in the new season to be 4-10 in the Eastern Conference.

In other words, it is best to get home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs, and the worst is not to make it to the playoffs.

Because of the beast, few media will predict that the Nets will continue to be at the bottom next season. Obviously, the strength of this team is much stronger than last season.Even if you don't like beasts, you can't talk nonsense.
