The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 262 Half of the Change
Zhang Xiaotian can directly mention the championship because he also has two championship rings.

But he still can't convince others that he is neither the boss of the team nor the head coach of the team.

James must think that he is the most correct. As long as young players play according to his requirements, the team will get better and better and win the championship.

Losing now is just the pain of running-in, because the other players have not changed their minds. He has experienced the running-in in the first year in the Heat, which is obviously an experience that Zhang Xiaotian has never had.

David Blatt hopes that everyone will recognize the professionalism of coaches, but in the league, except for a few big coaches, coaches are often similar to nanny.

Things like meetings are the same all over the world, and in the end they are serious thoughts.

Fortunately, what the Cavaliers will encounter next is the Magic, a soft persimmon. In any case, let's take the underdog first.

Since the Magic accepted from Jacques Vaughn, they haven't gotten rid of their identity as a belly.

Jacques Vaughn is a good guy, but that's all. Zhang Xiaotian is also surprised that he hasn't been fired yet.

The Magic's biggest summer expenditure was the signing of Channing Frye, a big man who is almost 32 years old, which is a bit incomprehensible.

But the young players of their captain have grown very well, Vucevic, Oladipo, Elfrid Payton, and the traded Evan Fournier, Tobias Harris should also be considered .

There are actually a lot of talented young people in the Magic, but they don't win much.

The Cavaliers desperately need to win, as does James, and the current tactics are more biased towards him.

Scoring, organizing, and under James' efforts, the Cavaliers quickly gained the advantage.

David Blatt doesn't know whether to be happy or unhappy. James' organizational skills are very good, but it's not the same as the flow of the ball he requires.

Zhang Xiaotian understands that organizational ability is not equal to team basketball.

James' demand for the ball is very strong. He can pass the ball to every open space, but the ball does not flow between everyone.

It is said that James has his own system, he has this ability, and he will not allow people including coaches to change this system.

The league is the player's world, if James is not willing, it is impossible to continue with David Blatt's European style.

It's not that James is domineering. Irving feels uncomfortable when he changes his style of play. It is impossible for Love to cooperate with the team as comfortably as he was in the Timberwolves. Think about how Bosh was buried by fans in the Heat for the championship.

If James played European basketball and gave up his system, he would not have his current status in the arena.

The team is a whole, and it is impossible for every player to play comfortably, especially for a team that wants to compete for the championship, there will always be sacrifices. James has a high status in the world, and others must be sacrificed.

He has already won the championship in his own way, and he will definitely not try a method that has not been proven.

It can be considered that he will change after his peak period, but certainly not now.

For this matter, Zhang Xiaotian is not entangled at all, he and James are in the first team as the end point.

The Cavaliers led the Magic by 18 points at halftime, and as an underdog, the Magic didn't have the capital to come back.

The main players of the Cavaliers clocked in and got off work in three quarters, and the substitute players all got to play, and the dull atmosphere before was swept away.

James said in an interview after the game, "We have found the right way to play, and the team will get better and better."

James also has enough confidence to say this. He may not be able to fully exert the strength of everyone in the team if he further controls the team, but he is still sure of defeating teams below the first level.

This may not be the best way, but it is the safest way.

After that, you can slowly improve after winning the game.

And who will support the team when he is resting, or what to do if he passes the ball and others feel bad, these questions are not a big problem for the Cavaliers, and some answers can be found by looking at the videos of James' previous teams.

Especially with Zhang Xiaotian by his side, it will be much easier at critical moments.

On November 11, the Cavaliers played against the Wizards at home, and they controlled the rhythm in the first quarter.

The Wizards have no substitute, which is more serious than the Cavaliers.

Another big victory, Zhang Xiaotian also scored 20 points.

This season, Zhang Xiaotian's scoring data has increased again, maintaining an average of about 15 points per game. Zhang Xiaotian still wants to jump up, and he should earn tens of millions after this season.

On November 11, the Cavaliers played against the Pacers at home.

In the second half of November, their schedule was actually quite easy.

The Pacers didn't keep Lance Stephenson this season, and they were unwilling to pay enough for a young player who could play both offense and defense but had occasional brain cramps.

But more importantly, Paul George was injured for the season while preparing for the World Cup in the summer.

Without the two strong points of single defense on the outside, without the core player Paul George, it is impossible for the Pacers to rush out of the East while the Heat's Big Three disband.

The Pacers, who were able to wrestle with the Heat last season, struggled at the beginning of this season and failed to get a [-]% winning percentage. They lacked a threat in front of the Cavaliers.

In addition, the Pacers' room leak happened to rain overnight. Compared with their main force in the Eastern Conference finals last season, only David West is still there.

Zhang Xiaotian scored 20+ again, and the Cavaliers easily won the game.

The Raptors lost the next day, and the Cavaliers once again took the No. [-] throne in the Eastern Conference, but it is not so easy to be No. [-] in the league.

The Grizzlies and Warriors were particularly sharp at the beginning of the season. When the Cavaliers failed to handle the East, the West was also in chaos. The Spurs got old and the Thunder were injured.

The time has come to December, and the nominations for the All-Stars of the new year have also begun.

The Cavaliers also reported Zhang Xiaotian's name, because he had a mission, and he was a lot more active this time.

Yang Feiyu organized a fan voting event on the other side of the ocean, and Zhang Xiaotian's fans were all enthusiastic.

On the US side, the fan organization is leading the charge.

James also exchanged his promise last season and vigorously canvassed Zhang Xiaotian.

"Turn on the computer, I'll show you something good."

After returning home from training, Yang Feiyu's excited voice came from the phone.

Zhang Xiaotian turned on the computer as he said, and saw that Yang Feiyu had sent him a video file.

The name of the video file is the master of the last quarter, and it contains highlights of his games, which looks exciting.

"It's not bad, it was done by a few fans, I think it can be used for publicity." Yang Feiyu said proudly.

"It's good, the level is quite high."

"Then don't praise me, don't you love me?"

Zhang Xiaotian was dumbfounded, "You are so good, you are so good... To be honest, I think it can be processed by professionals. For business alliances, momentum is also very important."
