Basketball injuries only make me stronger

Chapter 140 Another way of thinking
The Mavericks defeated the Hornets, and Dirk completed his self-righteousness.They began to show the strength of the favorites to win the championship.

And the failed Hornets were mired in controversy.

Even though Lian Feng put up the numbers of the star players, they lost the game.

Failure to do so will create controversy.

After returning to Oklahoma City, Lian Feng turned on the TV distractedly.It just so happened that in a show, two guests were getting into an argument because of him.

"Lianfeng is not yet a leader. In the Hornets, he is far less important than Paul."

"I don't agree with your point of view. I think Lian Feng and Paul are equally important to the Hornets. Their five-game winning streak at the beginning of the season was not due to the ability of one person. Their lineup can only be deterrent when two people are on the court at the same time."

"Okay, but anyway, the Hornets have to think about how to deal with the game without Paul. When they faced the Mavericks, it was obvious that they were not ready for it."

Lian Feng shook his head and turned off the TV.

In this era, social media software is still in its infancy, and TV and newspapers are still the mainstream media media. Fortunately, at this time, as long as you switch to TV and don’t read newspapers, the world will be clean.

Lian Feng lying on the sofa was a little depressed, he thought of Kobe.

Kobe can also make the playoffs with a group of CBA-level teammates, and his teammates are definitely not bad.Whether it is Tyson Chandler or David West, they are all qualified or even excellent champion puzzles!
No excuse for not having Paul!

Lian Feng knew very well that as long as the tactics were right and everyone's strengths were brought into play, their team would not be bad even without Paul!
but……

Lian Feng sighed silently.

How can everyone's strengths be brought out?
Byron Scott is too rigid in tactics, and his coaching philosophy seems to be still in the last century.

Ok……

After much deliberation, Lian Feng shook his head.

"I can't change other people, so let's change myself. Things like the environment, teammates, and coaches are not something that the current self can influence for the time being."

"Instead of worrying about those uncontrollable factors, it's better to find a way to improve your own strength! Either, it's so strong that the opponent can't limit it, and you can win with a group of bronze teammates, or it's so strong that the management pays attention to it, and it's so strong that they will satisfy the change of coach or other requirements!"

"Not yet, but one day it will be possible!"

As a result, Lian Feng stood up again as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

"My current offensive ability is already very good! Because Master Xi will help me open the space very smartly, so the opponent's inside line will not be so tight, and my face-to-face breakthrough can be more effective! In this regard, I am at the top."

"My middle distance is also very good, and it is also the best group in the entire league, so I can also open up space for my teammates."

"However, my three-point shooting ability is not outstanding, so far, it can only be used as a tactical means."

"The height of 203, but the back ability is too weak, whether it is the breakthrough ability behind the back, or the turnaround jump shot, it is not enough. It is a waste of static talent!"

Lian Feng knows very well that the only difference between him and a top scorer is his unsolvable three-point shooting ability and unsolvable post-up technique, but these two skills have a huge hidden boost to him.

Because there is no longer range, faster release speed, and the ability to receive three-pointers after high-speed dribbles, post-up attacks and low-post attacks, defenders can fully focus on defending his breakthroughs and mid-range.

Once targeted, the top breakthrough ability and middle distance will not be so unsolvable.

A star has no solutions, it must be because he has at least several offensive abilities that need to be defended in different ways.

If Paul is on the court, Lian Feng's shortcomings can still be integrated into the team, which is not so obvious, but when he needs to lead the team with a single core, these offensive weaknesses can be easily targeted.

Thinking of this, Lian Feng couldn't help but feel helpless, even if he suffered a serious injury, the skill points are still far from enough!

But now my physical threshold has obviously increased a lot. Since the World Championships, there is a risk of a little strain on the waist, but no further development has been seen for a long time.

In terms of physical strength, there is also a significant increase.Moreover, in order to pursue victory now, it is no longer possible to completely disregard the distribution of physical strength.

Therefore, if you want to improve your strength, you still have to go through training!

Thinking of this, Lian Feng immediately called the team's assistant coach.

"Hey Rami! Make arrangements for me, I have to practice more, and I will be in the training hall in about 10 minutes."

"Ah? Sorry, do you mean to come over now? Oh...Okay, I'll arrange it right away!"

Lian Feng hung up the phone without the slightest pause, changed his clothes and went to the arena.

With the help of the assistant team and trainers, Lian Feng practiced shooting, especially three-pointers.

The experience value of the hot zone is steadily increasing.

There is no doubt that Lian Feng's hard training soon reached the ears of reporters.

"effort."

"Perseverance."

"Hard work."

"Strive to win."

Various labels were slapped on Lian Feng.

Lian Feng didn't care about all of these.

He just hates the taste of failure.

However, hard training did not save the Hornets at this time.

After all, the configuration of the Hornets without Paul is much worse than that of the 76ers last season.

In the next game, the Hornets ushered in a wave of three-game losing streak.

Their record became 5 wins and 5 losses.

Lian Feng's ability to lead the team was once again questioned.Although he averaged 28 points per game in these few games, he still couldn't change the team's fate of losing.

The Hornets' ranking has also dropped to No. 6 in the Western Conference. If they lose two more games, it is foreseeable that they will fall out of the top 8 in the Western Conference.

Finally, after losing the third game, Lian Feng remained silent on the way back.

It has to be said that those who pursue victory to the extreme will bring invisible pressure to the teammates around them.Kobe is like this, Jordan is like this, and so is Lianfeng.

In the past few games, Bobby Jackson's performance was very poor. Before boarding the plane, he obviously wanted to help Lian Feng with the suitcase.

At this moment, Lian Feng finally couldn't restrain his emotions, and asked Bobby Jackson coldly, "What kind of ball have you been passing in these few games! Can you understand it yourself?"

Bobby Jackson knew he was wrong, but he was also wronged. Whether it was offensive or defensive, his height of 185 was really a disadvantage.

Moreover, he was already mediocre in passing vision talent.

The smile on Bobby Jackson's face faded away, and he fell silent, looking very pitiful.

The team fell into a weird atmosphere.

At this time, David West stood up.He knew that if he didn't do something at this time, it wouldn't be good for the team's locker room atmosphere.

David West grabbed Lianfeng by the shoulders, pulled him aside, and whispered into his ear.

"Dude, you really shouldn't say that to Bobby, it's his fault, but we both know he doesn't want that."

Lian Feng sighed: "I'm sorry David, I know what I just said was a bit too much..."

David West laughed, patted Lianfeng on the back, and said: "But don't blame yourself, you have done a good job, we all know, you just want to win."

Lian Feng couldn't help but said: "What do you think we should do now? I really don't know what to do to win."

David West was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: "What do you think is our biggest problem now?"

Lian Feng hesitated for a moment, but said seriously: "Do you really want me to tell you?"

David West thought for a while, and glanced at Byron Scott who was walking in the front.

Lian Feng hesitated and nodded.

Indeed, Lian Feng felt from the bottom of his heart that Byron Scott's coaching ability was too weak.Although he is very good and handles the relationship well in all directions, this cannot cover up his flaws in the level of coaching.

However, David West shook his head, "Bro, I know what you're thinking, but I have a different thought."

"Ok?"

David West suddenly said mysteriously: "Your idea is not wrong, but I think, specifically, it is because everyone on our team did not use their abilities where they are good at."

Lian Feng frowned: "This is the reason, but how to solve it?"

David West shook his head: "No, no, no, you still don't understand what I mean. I mean... think about it from another angle, this sentence doesn't just refer to players not using their abilities where they are good at."

Lian Feng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration.

Seeing this, David West knew that Lian Feng had already reacted, and walked away with a smile.

Lian Feng took a deep breath, his eyes gradually changed from confusion to clarity.

On the other end, David West walked up to Bobby Jackson, hooked him in the same position, and whispered in his ear: "Bobby, listen to me, Lian Feng asked me to come and apologize to you, he didn't mean that. You know, we all know, he just wants to win too much, you have to forgive him."

Bobby Jackson almost shed tears, nodded silently: "I know, thank you David."

And Lian Feng was seriously thinking about David West's words.

The meaning of David West is obvious, not only the players, but also Byron Scott did not play to his advantage.

Where is his advantage?

On the plane, after thinking about a whole route, Lian Feng finally figured it out.

"Whether it works or not, I have to try it!"

After getting off the plane, Lian Feng went straight to Byron Scott.
