When Hinrich and Luol Deng came on the field, they also gave Sefoloza a new instruction from the head coach, that is, to relax a little bit against Wilkins in defense. This is not to release water, but a strategy. Since The opponent's point guard Ridnour is more inclined to Durant, so it will give Wilkins a better chance and aggravate their conflicts.

At the same time, they pay more attention to strengthening their own offense, because they are currently behind. If they don't take advantage of Stephen's rest now to recover the gap, don't they have to wait for him to play? Ten players, no team dares to ignore Stephen's scoring ability.

After Hinrich came on the court, he managed the offense of the Bulls even better, and his physical advantage was also very obvious to Ridnour. He easily broke through Ridnour's defense, and Wilkins hurriedly Came over to make up for Ridnor, Hinrich asked for a deeper position, and after Wilkins came in front of him, he passed the ball diagonally to Sefolosha who retreated beyond the three-point line.

It stands to reason that after losing the defensive position, now that Wilkins has made up for it, Ridnour should defend Sefolosha, but Ridnor hesitated because Hinrich has a bigger name Some, the threat is naturally greater, but Sefolosha is an unknown person. When he finds out that Hinrich has passed the ball and wants to defend, it will be too late. Sefolosha has already stood still. He took a step, weighed his feet slightly, raised his hands high, fixed his eyes on the basket, and threw the ball.

Ridnour's eyes followed the flight trajectory of the ball, and he saw the ball fly into the basket. Before he could turn around, Wilkins had already come to him and said to him angrily. : "How do you defend, don't you know how to switch?"

Although Wilkins' question was blunt, his voice was still very low, and only the two of them could hear it, because although the expressions and movements of the two of them were a bit off-kilter through the live video, they just didn't capture it. Sound, this can be explained, but once there is sound proof, it is difficult to explain.

Some TV stations will hire lip language experts, but the words of lip language experts cannot be used as evidence, so even if players quarrel, they generally keep their voices down, especially when they are on the field, and Wilkins' expression can't be used as evidence. It sounded like a very common and normal question, but Ridnor ignored him for a while, snorted coldly, turned his head and left, which clearly showed the disagreement between the two of them.

Wilkins was about to catch up and continue to question, but when he looked up and saw the camera lens sweeping over, he stopped asking, but the anger that existed in his heart was burned even more vigorously, watching Ridnor gritted his teeth from behind.

Ridnor received Kurt Thomas' serve and slowly advanced to the frontcourt. He didn't know how to be angry at first, but Wilkins kept questioning him like this, which made him even more dissatisfied with Wilkins, thinking Now, what qualifications do you have to accuse me, isn't it because I played a little better today, so I don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the southeast and northwest.

After advancing to the frontcourt, even though it was obvious that Sefolosha's defense on Wilkins' side basically seemed to be non-existent, Ridnour still made a pick-and-roll with Kurt Thomas, and then put the ball again. Passed to Durant, and now even Kurt Thomas is not satisfied with him.

Obviously, Durant's chances were not very good. After the pick-and-roll, Kurt Thomas faced Hinrich's defense and just played his shooting expertise. However, Durant was too embarrassed to leave again. He didn't have much confidence after a miss, so he passed the ball to Robert Swift inside.

But the ball was intercepted by Bulls substitute power forward Taylor Thomas while flying, and failed to reach his destination. As soon as Taylor Thomas caught the ball, he pushed the ball forward and pushed forward. In the hands of Hinrich who is running.

Ridnour's retreat was also very fast, reaching the basket one step faster than Hinrich, but Hinrich held the ball and rushed towards him without slowing down at all. Ridnor was not afraid of confrontation and bravely He went forward to meet him, but Hinrich didn't intend to confront him head-on, that is, when the two were about to collide, one of them suddenly dodged sideways and passed the ball behind him at the same time.

Luol Deng, who followed behind, just caught the ball in his hand, and started a three-step layup rhythm at the same time. Durant, who followed closely behind him, hurriedly speeded up and jumped almost at the same time as Luol Deng. In the air, stretching his super long wingspan, he went towards the ball cover in Luol Deng's hand.

But Luol Deng was prepared in his heart, and made a pull action in the air to avoid Durant's block, which made Durant do useless work, and at the same time caused Durant's foul, and the ball was light like a ball. A bird with wings flew into the basket.

In such a short period of time, the Bulls narrowed the score to only [-] points. Stephen, who was sitting off the court, couldn't sit still. He originally thought that the advantage of [-] points was quite large, so he could rest assured that he could rest more below. Can I take a break.

Who knew that the situation would change suddenly in such a short period of time, and the advantage would be reduced by almost half. Stephen drank the Gatorade in his hand, picked up a towel and wiped his sweat, and planned to apply to Carlesimo to play. He also sees everything that happens on the field.

When this kind of thing happens, it will cause great harm to any team, especially from a team like the Spurs. A team is caused by teammates. To this point, if the pass is not passed, It feels incredible. You say that it’s fine if you don’t follow the tactics, and you don’t even follow the basic rules. What are you trying to do? Rebellion?

Stephen's anger is mainly directed at Ridnor. A point guard finds that his teammates have better opportunities and passes the ball to him. This is the basic responsibility of a point guard, not who has a good relationship with him to pass the ball. Pass it to whom, of course, it's not uncommon for this to happen once in a while, but it doesn't work all the time, especially if you're hurting the team because of your dereliction of duty.

To say that in this matter, Durant has no responsibility. He didn't reach out for the ball at Ridnour. He just passively accepted Ridnor's kindness, but it caused harm to Wilkins. As for whether this person is Wilkins or someone else, Stephen doesn't care.

In this team, except for Robert Horry and Coupard, Stephen's relationship with other people is only general. Although he and Durant have been together for a long time, the relationship between the two has not become close because of this. Of course Well, this is mainly because Durant is not so easy to get close to, and it is impossible for Stephen to take the initiative to get close to him.

In comparison, Kurt Thomas is on Stephen's side, because he has been in the league for many years and knows who is the core of the team, who represents the future of the team, and who has the right to speak for the team. In other words, Getting along with Stephen might not necessarily be beneficial, but getting along badly would make it hard to tell the outcome.

When it comes to players, apart from the general manager, some teams have the final say of the head coach, while others have the final say of the core players. So, slowly, Kurt Thomas melted into Stephen. The small team, of course, also has something to do with Robert Horry, because Kurt Thomas is the only one near his age on the team.

Carlesimo told Stephen to calm down and take a rest. As for the current situation of the team, Carlesimo also shook his head to Stephen and didn't say much, but motioned Stephen to go back to the bottom to discuss this issue. Although Stephen didn't quite understand it, he still accepted it.

After all, Carlesimo has always been on his side. Seeing that Stephen is still as obedient as before, Carlesimo is very relieved. In fact, no matter whether he or Stephen handles this matter, Potentially sparking a fierce backlash from Ridnour.

Because both he and Stephen are new to this team, and neither has established the corresponding authority, but they have stayed here for four seasons, and after Ray Allen and Lewis left, Wilcox and Ray Deno is already the team's oldest and most capable player.

If you or Stephen criticize the opponent rashly, it is very likely that Ridnor will refute it on the spot. In this way, even if you can force the opponent to end the game, it is not a good thing for the team that is still in the running-in stage. The establishment of authority is also a kind of harm, because other players will feel that they are only relying on the status of the head coach to suppress the opponent, and it is not appropriate for Stephen to handle this matter, because Stephen is in the same situation as himself.

Neither of them can be said to have completely controlled the team yet, so Carlesimo does not advocate acting now, it is better to let him mess around for a while, the damage to the team will be greater, and after serious consequences , and then punish him, change the name to make it more reasonable, and other players can't say anything.

What Carlesimo can never forget is that when he was in the Warriors, he was almost strangled to death by Sprewell. Although Sprewell was severely punished afterwards, his prestige among the players also plummeted. He realized that the head coach should not treat the players as targets of scolding at will, as the players will also resist, and once this happens, both the players and the coach will fail in their careers.

So he would rather watch Ridnour continue to hurt the team than call him down in a hurry and yell at him. Ridnour was already convinced by Stephen, so he would not let Stephen deal with this matter Even though Stephen, as the boss of the team, has the right to deal with this kind of matter, he is unwilling to let Stephen take this risk, so he would rather give up the game.
