Center first

Chapter 120
In Lin Yi's pitiful five-day vacation, two days were used to travel with Rogge in various business activities, and the other two days were spent with his younger sister Lin Xiner. His energy wasted by this strange little guy with an ancient collar I'm afraid it will take a day's sleep to replenish it.On the last day, he had to pay back the big meal owed to Fan Ling. Of course, Fan Ling's main task was the new interview.

Rogge needs the largest market where Lin Yi's name often appears, and Fan Ling has always been very interested in this little guy who she has been reporting since college, which makes Lin Yi very headache. The only good news is that This beautiful reporter is not only in charge of his interview, but also several other Chinese who play basketball in the NCAA and NBA are her interview subjects. This finally gives Lin Yi a chance to take a breather. This initiative makes people feel scary. Lin Yi didn't want to provoke her.

During this hasty vacation, the only thing Lin Yi gained apart from the beautiful encounter with Taylor Swift was probably the discussion about basketball with old Chuck when he visited Lin Xiner. In the game against the Jazz, Lin Yi This is the first time I feel the restriction of tactics on players. There are already many tactical masters in the league. I am afraid that Lin Yi will encounter more sieges in the future.

Now many teams in the NBA have not fully grasped all his abilities from these twenty-odd games, but the longer time passes, the more his strengths and weaknesses will be exposed. The designed tactics appeared, including the rascal shark-slashing tactics back then, and old Chuck's super-violent Jordan Law. No one can guarantee that a new restraint tactic will not appear because of Lin Yi's appearance.

"Center is an old-fashioned position. Now this league is not dominated by centers. The old guy Sloan can lose this game because he doesn't have a superstar who can provoke the main beam. Don't think your attack It’s the reason for his failure, you’re only half of it, the biggest threat actually comes from that little blackie Wade, without his presence, your space in the paint would have been so compressed that you couldn’t even move.” Old Chuck Pointing to the game scene on the video tape and talking to Lin Yi.

"After their center was pulled to the outside line, the power forward and small forward with strong assault ability attacked my defense zone in turn. I was at a disadvantage in the speed confrontation. If I was not careful, I would cause a defensive foul. In this game, I can only say that Sloan is better. What I want to suppress is Wade’s impact, so I have a lot more space, if he continues his tactics in the fourth quarter, I think we will probably lose.” Lin Yi recalled the fierce hand-to-hand game at the basket , The scalp still feels a little numb.

"Your tactical system has not been perfected. You now lack a stable three-point shooter on the outside and an experienced point guard. Your singles ability is much stronger than before. Although you lack experience, you can deal with ordinary players. You are tall enough. But when you are fighting against those top centers, you are still in a passive situation. If the Heat suddenly lacks one of the two offensive points, both you and Wade will be passive. This is what you are now major weakness."

Old Chuck has been studying the video of Miami recently. He knows that it is almost impossible for this reorganized team to suddenly have a perfect tactical system. However, Miami now relies on two particularly outstanding It is enough for this old man to get such a good score in offensive points, because there are his apprentices in it, Lin Yi's performance in the early stage of the first NBA season has exceeded his expectations, this man is crazy on the court The little guy is very appetizing to him. Old Chuck always smiles knowingly while watching TV.

Lin Yi chatted with old Chuck until very late. Seeing the gray-haired old man pointing the country vigorously, it seemed that he had returned to the era when the old bandit commanded the iron-blooded rogue army. He was still the one on the sidelines. The devil coach who makes everyone feel terrified.

This old man in his 70s is still so passionate when he talks about basketball, and he is still so wise when watching the video to guide Lin Yi to deal with tactical changes, but Lin Yi vaguely feels that old Chuck is not as strong as he was a few months ago. Strong, the old man who supported him to the NBA with one hand seems a little old.

It was late at night, when almost everyone in the room had fallen asleep, old Chuck and Lin Yi were still discussing something in his study. Of course, the conversation between the old and the young would always revolve around the one that made them Everyone is obsessed with basketball, Lin Yi has learned valuable experience from this wise old man, and old Chuck is also happy to watch his apprentice use this experience to restore the glory of the center iron-blooded.

Not only did Lin Yi spend this vacation in a hurry, but Pat Riley, the general manager of the Heat, hardly had any rest. Now the transfer contract issue he is studying has made him almost fiddle with the golden abacus. Marion The expiring contract has now made him restless like a hot potato, and he is weighing how to deal with this contract.

Should he not renew his contract when he automatically expires in the summer, or should he take advantage of his good performance to trade for more practical players? Riley sat on his large armchair and pondered carefully. The list of trading intentions was spread out on the table.

"Finding ways to control profits is the essence of the transaction." Riley understands the rules. He doesn't want to get rid of a big contract and immediately carry a big burden. Saturated, cheap and beautiful things will never be placed in front of you for you to choose.

You must know that it will be 09 soon, and he will not ignore the future contract issues between Lin Yi and Wade. Now Lin Yi and Wade have become the most beloved idols in the American Airlines Arena in Miami. If one of them is let go, I am afraid that his golden abacus will come to an end. Not only the fans will kill him, but the team owner will not tolerate such a thing.

The Flash is a symbol of Miami, he can be said to be the master of the American Airlines Arena, and after Lin Yi ends his rookie contract, he must spend a lot of money to keep it. Fortunately, he doesn't have to think about this annoying problem now, he still has one or two In the next year, let's concentrate on dealing with that weird-looking guy first.

"The salary clause kills everything. It screwed up players' lives, it made every player's future difficult to plan, predict, created life challenges and ultimately lead to frustration for the GM, owners and fans. Now Riley finds the phrase passed down among the league managers very apt, a good Christmas, but he is going to be burned by a trade.It seems that the issue of salary space will not only screw up the lives of players, but even his manager is going crazy.

"A good deal always allows people to see where their respective teams have made more money." Riley fiddled with the deal intentions at hand to select players he thought were worthy of consideration. As far as the team is concerned, stability may be more important than anything else, but Marion's troublesome contract makes him feel tricky. Riley can only try his best to exchange for some players suitable for the Heat. pointing his nose and cursing.

It seems that he needs to make a phone call with Spoelstra to see how this first-year rookie coach designed the Heat's tactics. Maybe he can exchange for a relatively small price. This is the case at times, and it can play a big role in a tactical system that suits him. This is the difference between a small role and a star.

And Pat Riley's mind is very narrow. During the Christmas that was disturbed by this contract, he wanted to pull a hapless guy to enjoy his troubles with him.This magic operator who never wants to suffer is always a guy who refuses to suffer anytime and anywhere. It is the nature of this old fox to be good at calculation.

But after Riley called, he found out that Spoelstra, like him, had been worrying about lineup and tactical design for many days. Every game depends on the performance of Wade and Lin Yi to solve the problem. If that is the case, he guarantees that the Heat will definitely suffer miserably after the start of the playoffs.

Riley's call made the two people start to plan the future of this team according to the exchange intention they received in this long night. Maybe the transaction will not happen tomorrow morning, but everyone knows it will happen. Before the end of February, the decision should be made in the summer, and it depends on how much value this bargaining chip can be exchanged for.

Although there will not be many big fish in the free market in the summer of 09, there will definitely be a lot of capable guys. If they abandon Marion and don't renew the contract, they can use the salary space enough to catch a fat enough big fish. To supplement the Heat's lineup.

But now the team's good results and rankings make them a little unwilling to give up. People are so never satisfied. Now Riley and Spoelstra want to list all the situations they can imagine. Trading is like this, you have to make multiple preparations and estimate all possible situations.

Riley and Spoelstra swapped rotation plans, put marginalized guys on the tradeable list, and anyone but Wade and Linyi could be put on the table Discuss the price online, in fact, even Lin Yi and Wade are no exception, but now their considerable value makes Riley not so stupid as to take the initiative to give it to others.

On this deserted night, not only Lin Yi and old Chuck stayed up all night, but many other people were busy. The NBA has never been a quiet place, and various opportunities and transactions are bred here.

Maybe when the team restarts the regular season journey, some guys' names will not appear on the roster. Now it is really hopeful to have a consistent guy like Stockton. unattainable fantasy.

The reborn Heat team is still brewing changes. As for whether it is a blessing or a curse, no one can see clearly. We can only pray for good luck on this Christmas Eve.
