super small forward

Chapter 284. Chapter 284.

After Randall came on the court, the situation on the court has changed a lot. Since Griffin has evolved into a technical stream, no one in the league has played like Randall for two years.

Randall is very active on the court. His height of [-] meters makes him not at a disadvantage against small forwards in terms of speed. He is also strong enough to compare with powerful power forwards and even many centers. He is explosive and not timid...

Randall continued to show his talents to the fans in Las Vegas, but the more so, the better Randall performed, and the more resentful Cole felt on the sidelines.

After the first quarter, the Lakers didn't deliberately target Randall, but instead wanted to use the defensive system to deal with it.

Clearly Randle is a new type of player who is beyond the expectations of traditional coaches.

"Bernie, it seems that our defensive system still needs some changes." D'Antoni Bickerstaff said.

"That's right, I didn't expect the opponent to have such a player." Bickerstaff said and glanced at Green who was talking to Liu Ren, "It seems that there will be more and more players like Drummond in the future. , that old fellow Pat Riley's prediction was really accurate..."

On the other side, Liu Ren and Green were chatting.

"Boss, that rookie is too aggressive!" Green showed displeasure. If the coach hadn't arranged for him to play defense according to tactics, he would have gone to defend Randall a long time ago.

"That's right, stole my limelight, Drummond, let him know what the real NBA looks like!" Liu Ren urged.

"OK, but boss, if the coach scolds me, I will say that you forced me."

"..."

The second quarter started, and the Lakers played LaVine, McCollum, Nick Young, Green, and Whiteside.

Originally, Antetokounmpo should be the power forward, but Green took the initiative to play, and D'Antoni saw the fighting spirit in Green's eyes and agreed!

The Warriors have also replaced a group of substitutes. Cole's main goal in the preseason is to adapt Randall to the general environment of the NBA. Young and strong guys should play more.

The Warriors' players are Livingston, Barbosa, Barnes, Randall, and Ezeli, who are new to the Warriors this year.

Needless to say, the Warriors are really good as a substitute, even better than the Philadelphia 76ers' starters. This year, a lot of substitutes have been strengthened, and two unprotected first-round picks in 16 and 18 were exchanged for it. He got Randall's draft pick and got this rookie who is appreciated by the new head coach Kerr.

Unlike the Lakers who exchanged for LaVine's draft pick at a similar price, and slowly cultivated after selecting LaVine, Cole chose Randall because he wanted Randall to play a role immediately!

After seeing David Lee's abnormal weakness in the playoffs last year, Cole began to prepare for the team's future plans. He selected Randall from the players in the trial training. A short power forward who can handle the ball and pass the ball is not bad, which is more suitable for Cole's new tactics than David Lee.

In Cole's tactics, a power forward who has the ability to pass the ball, is a threat on the offensive end, and does not suffer from speed is very important. At the beginning, Cole chose David Lee for this role, or he was Because the Warriors have David Lee to develop such a tactic.

This tactic has also been unanimously praised by the Warriors management and Warriors special advisor Jerry West.

But now David Lee is gone!It can't reach the contribution of tactics and the ball at all, let alone ask him to organize the offense, even if he is asked to shoot open shots, he may not be able to shoot accurately.

Originally, in the world of Liu Ren's previous life, Cole was not in a hurry even if David Lee failed, because he found Green, a neglected genius, among the team's water dispenser administrators.

After the Warriors were eliminated by the Thunder last season, Kerr immediately took over the Warriors from Mark Jackson, and then began to plan for reinforcements. In the series against the Thunder, David Lee was a pitfall. Ibaka, who was plagued by injuries, Abuse to no end.

Then Cole saw Green, who played very well in the game between the Lakers and the Thunder next door, averaging 9 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists in the series that swept the Thunder.

Cole instantly felt that Green was the player who really suited his tactics, much more suitable than David Lee!
but!Green is a Lakers player.

more importantly!Green was personally sent to the Lakers by the Warriors.

Helpless, Kerr could only choose a backup, and then used the same bargaining chips as the Lakers got LaVine, that is, two non-lottery first-round picks in exchange for Randall's pick.

In today's game, Randall played very well, but he didn't follow the tactics at all. He took the ball and went to the basket. It was like a black hole for the ball. He couldn't get the ball out of his hands. up.

Randall was very excited, he seemed to see the Lakers being beaten by him!He had the kind of excitement that Griffin had just entered the league, leaving behind everything the coach arranged.

There is an old saying that extreme joy begets sorrow.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Green began to teach Randall how to behave.

The Lakers attacked first, Green held the ball in the high post, let Whiteside come out to pick and roll, and pulled the inexperienced Randall and Ezeli to the outside line together.

Immediately, Green threw the ball to the basket, and LaVine, who ran into the basket instead, dunked with an amazing bouncing empty catch.

Randall, who played well just now, is now bursting with confidence, and he wants to pay back the opponent like a superstar!
Randall asked for the ball from Livingston, took the ball and went to the basket as before.

However, as soon as he rushed into the three-point line, Randall, who rushed in with his head sullen, knocked down a person.

The referee whistled continuously, dribbled the ball into someone, an offensive foul!

Green, who has experience, defensive awareness, and defensive judgment, stood on Randall's breakthrough route first when Randall started. After observing for most of the quarter, Green had already understood that Randall Er, a stunned young man, can only make breakthroughs in a straight line, and standing there firmly will definitely be effective.

but!Green didn't expect this guy to be so fierce!It overturned him directly!

Randall's weight and explosive power really amazed Green. This physical talent is really great!Green was a little envious.

but!Good talent is not just physical fitness. The Warriors lost Green because of this.

Green's golf quotient and hard work are even more rare talents!
Green once again sent the ball to his teammates easily and freehand to get an assist, and Randall wanted to rush to the basket when he got the ball. This time, Green directly took the ball out!

Green has completely seen through Randall's three axes!

Randall's offensive routine is nothing more than rushing to the basket, changing directions one-on-one and then forcibly approaching the basket and then forcing the ball.

Green saw through it at a glance. If Randall wanted to score, he had to get closer to the basket, which was easy to target.

Next, Randall fell into the first nightmare of his NBA career. After his personal offense was invalid, Randall remembered the coach's arrangement and started to organize the offense, but no matter what he did, he made mistakes. The breakthrough was an offensive foul. Either the ball is intercepted, or blocked by the "disdainful" big man on the opposite side, and the pick-and-roll is blown to move the pick-and-roll.

Green "cruelly" bullied "Little Green" Randall in Liu Ren's mouth, causing Cole on the sidelines to constantly curse his predecessor Mark Jackson.
