Healing Basketball

Chapter 798 798. Nash at that time
As a scout, I usually go to investigate NCAA players and investigate the information of each team. Tickets and hotels are all at public expense, and I can even take my wife with me.

Payton seldom came to the Rose Garden Arena after retiring. Counting the opening game to get the ring, after the start of the new season, he came three times in total. Today is the fourth time. Liu Xiu guessed that Payton didn't want to be treated as free labor.

Therefore, when Liu Xiu thought of Peyton, she immediately called him over.

"Warden, your defense is completely adequate. Of the point guards I've seen in so many years of playing, maybe only Dumars and Kidd are better than your defense. Defensive masters like Blaylock and Stockton Maybe not as good as you...Although I am also a point guard, I must admit that the defense of the point guard has the least impact on the team's defense of all positions."

Liu Xiu found that Payton's way of speaking has changed. When this guy was a player, he couldn't say that the defense in his position was useless.

Liu Xiu did not deny it, and replied: "Our team's offensive end is difficult to stabilize, and it will become more and more unstable. The scorers are very tired. This problem cannot be solved. The big boss does not want to trade the defending hero so easily. We can only get through this time slowly... In order to win, we can only continue to improve our defense. I watched our team and I have the greatest room for improvement. If my defensive level can be better then Well, or close to your level, our defense is bound to get better...Are you afraid I'll be better than you?"

"Who will be afraid of you! Practice now? Will it delay the game tonight?"

"It's okay, I'll recover with a nap after lunch."

"Vac...I hate you physical monsters..."

...

Scouts are also considered members of their own team!
Moreover, maybe because he is no longer a player, Payton has more time to teach and prepare for teaching. Liu Xiu started the full version of the "glove flow" defensive training learning method.

Another [-] healing points were spent...

For more than 40 minutes in the morning, Payton did not teach, but played bullfighting with Liu Xiu for a while.

It has been less than half a year since he retired, but Payton is still in good shape, not gaining 30 kilograms in half a year like Jordan did after his second retirement.

One-on-one duels are no match for a match, and there are many things that cannot be seen.

But Payton knows Liu Xiu's defense very well, he just observes the details.

Payton knows that Liu Xiu has been busy all summer, so he should have no time to strengthen his defense, but compared with last season's playoffs, he can still see that Liu Xiu has made obvious improvement on the defensive end.

Payton was playing bullfighting with Liu Xiu cursingly. Now Liu Xiu wanted something from others, but she didn't forgive him. She responded ironically, and Payton was so angry.

In the afternoon, Payton didn't leave, he was going to watch tonight's game live.

Playing against the Suns, the strongest offensive team in the league, may be able to better see what Liu Xiu lacks on the defensive end.

In fact, Payton said that the defensive ability of the point guard has the least impact on the whole team among all positions, and the meaning is slightly different from the literal.

What he wants to express is that most defensive point guards only care about defending themselves well, rushing to the front, and only care about enjoying the help of their teammates, but they rarely help their teammates on the defensive end.

This is the real 'defensive ability has the least impact on the team'.

If Liu Xiu is such a point guard, when he was a teammate, Payton might help him twice for the championship and teach him. Even if he has a good relationship in private after retirement, he will find a reason to refuse, which is really meaningless.

But what Payton knows is that Liu Xiu has been practicing defense since the second grade, and he regards himself as a part of the team, which has been the case until now.

Last season, Liu Xiu was surprised that he was selected for the second defense, because Payton also felt that Liu Xiu was still a little bit worse, and now he is still a little bit worse.

However, Liu Xiu's role in the overall defense is absolutely worthy of the "best defensive team" award, which was voted by the head coaches of each team.

At 7:40 p.m., the Trail Blazers waited in the tunnel for the opposing Suns to enter first.

"Warden, do you know? There are many TV stations broadcasting our game live, and they all want to see us lose three games in a row. I won't let them succeed, so this butcher is back tonight... Hey! Warden , are you listening to me?"

"Huh? Are you talking to me?"

"Warden! This butcher is going to kill you!"

"Okay, okay, let's enter..."

The spotlight at the entrance of the away player's tunnel has been turned off, the visiting team has finished playing, and the light is on the side of the home team's player tunnel.

Liu Xiu was the first to run out of the player tunnel. The positions of the teammates in the player tunnel seemed chaotic, but the order of running out behind Liu Xiu was actually fixed... When Randolph ran out in his training uniform, the scene The screams of the fans suddenly went up a notch!
Butcher, the strongest insider in the eyes of Prison fans, if he wants to be a dynasty, it will be impossible without Butcher.

Although reasonable fans feel that the butcher often drags the warden back during the period after the start of the new season, but tonight's opponent is the Suns, so it doesn't exist...

Randolph actually got Thomas Carter's permission to play before playing the Pacers, but the coach worried that he was injured again and chose a better opponent.

Liu Xiujue's coach made the right decision, but the Suns... definitely won't play better than the Pacers.

"Phoenix Suns, 12 wins and 3 losses, 111 points per game, 92.4 points conceded per game... 50.1% from the field, 46% from the field, 40% from the three-point range, 37% from the three-point range %..."

"Steve Nash, 32 years old, 191 cm, 88 kg, PG, ability rating 97, offense 96, defense 65, passing 100... averaged 19.2 points, 3.4 rebounds and 12.4 assists per game... shooting 55%, three 46% from the field and 92% from the free throw line..."

It's outrageous!
Nash, who is one year older, played the best performance of his career!
Liu Xiu originally thought that Nash was already the strongest pure point guard after the Magician last season, but he didn't expect to be even stronger this year!
In fact, in the original time and space, Nash's 06-07 season was indeed the peak year of his career, and he ranked second in the MVP rankings that year.

But that year's Nash was similar to Duncan in the 03-04 season. When he played the highest efficiency in his career, he had won two consecutive MVPs and met an opponent who performed better than him. Duncan met another No. 21, and Nash met The most important is Nowitzki, who scored 67 wins.

In addition to Nash with a 97 ability rating, Liu Xiu took a look and saw Xiaobawang with a 92 ability rating and a hacker with a 91 ability rating.

Under the treatment of the common team doctor Thomas Carter, the health of the Suns has improved this year. Not missing!
In other words, this team with an average field goal percentage of [-]% is at its best!
Is that record about to be broken?
