Chapter 631 Many Perfect Teaching Assistants
After waking up at noon, Su Yang received a call from Jiang Ruolan, saying that her family was giving birth to a baby again, and it was urgent.

"Pregnancy is a matter of fate..."

Su Yang yawned, and calmly explained that there is no need to be anxious, because pregnancy is like a hearthstone, trying to achieve a certain effect, often can't be achieved, but often unintentional operations can produce a wave God draw or God random.

The team did not arrange training in the morning. In the afternoon, the whole team went to watch a movie. The movie was the recently released "Doctor Strange." story.

It turned out to be like that.

Doctor Strange encountered a car accident at the peak of his life, was negative for a period of time and got a chance, then defeated himself and learned something, and then defeated the big boss wittily and bravely to save the world. The pure theory of blood and destiny is really meaningless.

The key point is too childish, like a fight between the magistrates of the Warring States Period in Japan. In the end, the fate of all mankind in the whole world basically depends on a 3V3 magic ball game. It is not so much a science fiction movie as a religious movie, which seriously entrains selfishness. goods.

Hollywood's ability to tell stories has seriously degraded, and even the whole world has a similar trend of frantically spelling out special effects.

After watching the movie, Cousins, who was good at thinking, suddenly said: "The current Hollywood movies are a bit like playing games with us. Those gorgeous heads-ups and coordination in the past have gradually disappeared, and the mainstream has become a lot of running positions and three-pointers... "

Everyone agreed after hearing the words.

Su Yang was also deeply touched.

It just feels that after entering the small ball era, the style differences between the teams are getting smaller and smaller. At the beginning of the century, the Princeton of the Kings, the triangle offense of the Lakers, the twin towers of the Spurs, the running and bombing of the Suns, the iron blood of the Pistons, etc., all disappeared. not see.

Everyone is in a frantic pursuit of efficiency.

In the early morning training of the next day, Su Yang took the whole team to watch the scouting report and video analysis together, and found that the Nets had changed a lot in the new season.

After the frenzied trade in 13, the Nets finally came to a sense of relief. They cleared out Joe Johnson and Jarrett Jack, who were somewhat famous but average in actual ability. control.

Compared to player replacement.

The biggest change for the Nets was to recruit Kenny Atkinson as the head coach, a coach who is famous for training players. He was praised by the famous coach Rick Adelman as early as the 07-08 season when he was the assistant coach of the Rockets: The best coach to develop players.

However, Atkinson can serve as the head coach of the Nets, thanks to Budenholzer, the head coach of the Spurs, and recommended it to the general manager of the Spurs, Sean Marks, just in time for Sean Marks to become the general manager of the Nets. Clean up the mess.

"Unfortunately, Lin was injured..."

Curry sighed, and said that it was Jeremy Lin's best chance, and he had already shown his strength in the Hornets last season.

Su Yang also felt that it was a pity, and only hoped that next season, Jeremy Lin would not get injured again at the start of the game, and end up with no ball to play in the end.

As the discussion continued, everyone summed up their thoughts and said without boasting that the Nets were not their opponents, because Jeremy Lin was injured and missed the game as the main point guard, and Sean Kilpatrick, who was the substitute, was completely unable to lead the Nets to their due combat strength.

As for the big Lopez, at most he will exchange sons with Cousins, and the others, such as Whitehead and Trevor Booker, are not to be feared.

Bojan Bogdanovic has some strength, and it is limited to three-pointers at the top of the bottom corner. As for the three-pointer Bojan, it is useless.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the game started.

As predicted before the game, the Nets were no match at all, and the Kings would take the lead if they played casually, but Atkinson, as the head coach, was not at all frustrated. So methodical.

"Kenny is a good coach..."

Su Yang wondered whether he should arrange a wave in advance so that Atkinson can be hired as an assistant when he is fired.

Anyway, Atkinson was a good coach.

Established the culture of the Nets, trained Russell to become an All-Star player, led the team to the playoffs, and achieved remarkable results.

At least better than rookie Nash.

The same lineup, let Atkinson lead, the record is definitely better than Nash, because he will do injury management.

In order to accommodate Duou, the Nets chose to kill the donkey, which is a brain-dead operation, although the star is indeed very important.

Soon after the game was over, the Kings defeated the Nets 122 to 105, and Antetokounmpo blasted 37 points and 11 rebounds.

George got a quasi-triple-double, 22 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds. In fact, he can force a triple-double, but he chooses not to.

As the final bell rang, Su Yang walked to the technical stage, held Atkinson's hand tightly, and said with a smile: "I really like your way of training players. I hope that one day we will have a chance to cooperate..." Acting as if Thirsty, making the other person's face full of surprise.

The whole team set off for Washington overnight. After a night's rest, they challenged the Wizards in back-to-back away games and started load management.

During the joint training before the game, Su Yang saw the name of his old acquaintance Scott Brooks in the scout report, and then thought that Brooks started to serve as the head coach of the Wizards this season. burden.

"I heard that Coach Brooks solved the problem of the Wizards' incompatibility when he first took office. It's a bit powerful..." Assistant coach Mike Brown was full of envy, probably because he rarely got involved in player incompatibility. After all, LeBron was the absolute boss when he coached the Cavaliers.

As for the year when he returned to the Cavaliers in the middle, Mike Brown also had nothing to do with Irving and Waiters, purely pendant.

"Coach Brooks is very good at building relationships and developing players' potential, although most of the time..."

Su Yang nodded in agreement with Brown's opinion.

After Coach Brooks joined the Wizards, he fully activated the potential of Wall, Bill, and Porter. The method he adopted was to simplify the offensive routines, encourage a large number of heads-ups, and a large number of quick counterattacks. , The Wizards averaged a full 6 points more in total points per game, but the average number of assists per game dropped instead, a bit like when they took over the Thunder.

In a blink of an eye, at seven o'clock in the evening, the game between the Kings and the Wizards started.

Su Yang deliberately asked Brogdon to replace Mbah a Moute in the starting lineup, and let George play small forward. It was not to continue to build momentum for Brogdon's best rookie, but to better target Bill's off-ball screen running and ensure There is someone on the king's side who can follow him at any time.

According to Su Yang's arrangement, Curry and others played casually at the beginning, and the King and the Wizards played back and forth, and it was difficult to distinguish between high and low.

But in the second quarter of the game, the second team of the Kings came on the stage. A group of young players had no physical strength or risk of injury. The fans at the scene were dumbfounded.

"Why did you discover the weakness of the team so quickly?" Assistant coach West asked curiously during the game break.

Assistant coach Di Brown laughed: "For Su Yang's analytical ability, you will go from being shocked to getting used to it, don't worry..."

Su Yang shrugged in response.

No way, I know too much.

The main Wizards offensive launch is too simple and clear. First of all, Wall’s pick-and-roll breakthrough. If you want to bully Cousins, arrange Antetokounmpo to switch defenses in advance. The cooperation between Wizards center Gortat and power forward Morris is not tacit. .

Once Wall can't break through efficiently, most of his skills will be abolished.

The method is to not give room for acceleration, forcing Wall to make more pull-ups at the top of the arc, or make emergency stop jump shots at the elbow area, which is extremely difficult.

The second is Bill's off-ball screen. Because Brogdon and George can switch defenses at any time, Curry can also switch defenses. Bill's efficiency dropped sharply after the second quarter of the game. Gordon is light and cannot be misplaced.

As for the Wizards' bench, it's a mess.

What Kelly Ombre, what Andrew Nicholson, what Thomas Satoransky, never heard of it.

For those four substitutes, Coach Brooks has nothing to arrange. He can only let them play more pick-and-rolls, but they don't have that ability.

Between you and me, after the whole game, the Kings won 111 to 92, and the main players played an average of 23 minutes.

The whistle sounded at the end of the game, and Su Yang walked to the technical stage as usual and shook hands with Coach Brooks.

I also thought about recruiting Brooks as an assistant coach. After all, Brooks is a good teacher and friend for young players. He can team up and care about players, but he is not suitable to be a team leader because he is too good. To implement the strategy, it is a typical case to let Westbrook play blindly a few times in many cases, and it is impossible to give up his friend and teacher persona.

It's a pity that Brooks has just signed a five-year contract with the Wizards, and it will take a long time for it to end. The hope of the assistant coach is slim.

After the post-match press conference, the whole team got four days to rest. Su Yang reminded them to recharge their batteries and prepare for the madness.
