start with scouting

Chapter 671

After reading the text message, Su Yang thought for a while, and replied to Xin Ji casually: "Don't worry, just follow the plan..."

It is not yet known if the news is true or not. Even if it is true, the biggest harm may be that George's personality has changed drastically, and the FMVP will be angrily robbed in the finals, but it can also be solved by adjusting the rotation or even DNP. There is really no need to care.

And the news is likely that George's agent, Aron Mintz, deliberately released it to test the reaction. Others seek greater benefits for their clients. Although it is during the playoffs, there is no big problem, and it is not open to the entire network. discuss.

The main thing is that the entire league knows that if the Kings intend to send away one of the Big Four, there is a 90% probability that they will choose George.

"I promised to pay a luxury tax of [-] million U.S. dollars. Few people are willing to believe it..." Su Yang felt a little speechless, thinking that it might be a chain reaction brought about by sending away Jokic before, even MVP-level players can be sent away , what else is wrong.

The next night, the Eastern Conference finals also came out. The Cavaliers finally defeated the Raptors 4-0 and advanced to the finals against the Kings.

Various forecasts are released simultaneously.

Gambling websites, ESPN 21 experts, well-known commentators, and more than 90% of fans are overwhelmingly optimistic about the Kings. Various predictions are 4-0 sweeps, and the most is a 4-1 gentleman sweep. The basic point of view is that the Cavaliers are very strong, but the Kings are so strong that they explode .

Look at the low and look low, ESPN still analyzes the series and points out that the overall three-point shooting percentage of the Cavaliers has increased by 2.1% compared to last season, mainly because the three-point shooting of the three main players of Love, LeBron and Irving has improved. And the addition of Korver in the middle of the season, but the Cavaliers won six games less than last season, and important substitutes such as JR Smith were troubled by injuries.

"The Cavaliers have the possibility of defeating the Kings in theory, as long as they can play a shooting-based offensive system around LeBron, and their biggest problem is defense, which will cause them to encounter a team with the highest offensive efficiency in history like the Kings. It will be miserable..."

After Pippen and McGrady's analysis, many fans forwarded the discussion, and for a while there was an upsurge of moves across the league.

It can be discussed and discussed, and fans find that the King always seems to be able to deal with those potential strategies, with almost no weaknesses.

Unlike the Rockets, the Cavaliers can change defenses with high mobility, limit the King's tactical coordination, and reduce the frequency of the King's easy scoring. .

At eight o'clock in the morning on the 26th, Su Yang called a meeting of scouts and coaching staff to study how to deal with the Cavaliers as usual.

After more than 40 minutes of discussion, the various possibilities have been listed, and the overall difficulty of evaluation is much less than that of shooting rockets.

"The Cavaliers' defense is terrible! They averaged 100 points per 110 rounds per game this season. Among all the teams that made the playoffs this season, they ranked second, only better than our first-round opponent, the Trail Blazers. One point, all just 51 wins..."

"They played very well in the playoffs. They swept their opponents 4-0 twice to advance, but they lost more points per game. They were able to win mainly by strong firepower suppression. Many of them were not easy, and the overall strength of the Eastern Conference was weak. weak…"

"There are two points to note. The first is that the Cavaliers have the best free throws per 100 possessions in the league. The second is that the Cavaliers have the most offensive rebounds per 100 possessions. They only lost to the Knicks and us, ranking third in the league. ..."

Su Yang nodded while listening, and then gave the core strategy: only defend LeBron, and focus on defending the rest of the Cavaliers. Anyway, the thinking of dealing with the big core with the ball is similar. Just cut off the connection with teammates. Fighting LeBron and Harden is the Obvious case.

Determine the strategy, and the king's training will start.

Su Yang called Guy to imitate LeBron again, but unfortunately the effect was relatively mediocre, mainly because Guy's pass was too far away.

But if someone can imitate it, it is better than just practicing internally, not to mention that the first battle will not start until June [-]st.

Su Yang also took advantage of Kobe’s free time, in the name of losing weight, invited him to join the training, and told LaVine and George and other fans how to adjust their mentality in the finals of the three consecutive championships. Kobe told the Kings, learning from the Lakers 4-0 Just sweep the Nets.

Perhaps because of the long wait, the influence of the Kings sweeping the Rockets began to dissipate. There were gradually discussions pointing out that the Cavaliers were underestimated. The core theory was that they were seriously underestimated. They all regarded Love as a burden.

Regardless of the regular season, Love played better in the playoffs than last season. The overall shooting percentage increased by 5%, and the three-point shooting percentage increased by nearly 4%. Rebounds, steals, blocks, and three defenses The data has also improved significantly, and it will never be given in vain.

Wiggins is also underestimated. Although he has mediocre statistics due to the lack of possession of the ball, his personal defensive ability is very good.

Tyronn Lue was interviewed at the end of the training, talking about the whole league being one-sidedly optimistic about the Kings, and said calmly: "We also have three superstars. Although we lost against the Kings twice this season, we have also accumulated a lot of experience. We are not afraid. On the contrary, we are very excited about this finals match, we like this kind of public opinion, which makes us have no extra burden..."

Cavaliers owner Gilbert also said similar words to Tyronn Lue in a telephone interview with TNT. The core meaning is that it is nothing for the Cavaliers to lose. different.

That statement was supported by some fans.

Especially those fans who believe that Love can perform well, they emphasized: Love, as a space-type 4th position, as long as he can shoot a normal three-pointer, he can help LeBron and other players to create more More breakthrough space.

Some fans also pointed out that the Cavaliers performed very well at the beginning of the season, and gradually became hips in the middle and late stages. The consumption is relatively low.

Su Yang saw a few comments by chance, and thought that the fans could come up with anything in order to find hope for themselves. The Kings also have many underrated players. Members are normally more terrifying.

As for what Tyronn Lue and Gilbert said, they are nothing more than cheering up the Cavaliers and encouraging themselves.

The knights do not have any burden, they have lost enough, they can attack without reservation, but if the impact fails, the heart will collapse faster, because that means complete loss of hope, and the king can say that a wave of destruction will destroy the land. Big win.

But it's okay to have thoughts.

No one wants to give up before the fight starts.

The so-called never give up until the Mississippi River.

In a blink of an eye on the 31st, ESPN released the pre-viewership data for the Kings vs. Cavaliers Finals, which was the lowest since the 07 Finals. Most of the TV users who filled out the questionnaire thought that the Finals lacked suspense, so they should watch more.

In the evening, Su Yang received an email from the league council meeting, the main content of which was to strictly investigate the contact between the team and the players' various interests outside of the salary contract, and strictly restrict the team from introducing or promoting endorsements for the players. fair play.

"Do you want to target this kind of boss with a lot of off-site resources? Or target super rich people like Ballmer?"

Su Yang felt a little strange, but he didn't think much about it. The finals were about to start, and the three consecutive championships were just around the corner, unstoppable.
