NBA Building Cardinals

Chapter 179 Things Are Human

April 1

The Bobcats will start the second part of their trip to the West, and in this trip to the West, the Bobcats will face the Kings, a team that has a lot of history with them, in the first game.

This is also the first time since Kevin Martin and Kapono exchanged clubs.

After Kevin Martin left the Kings, he got a lot of playing time in the Bobcats, and he also returned to the Bobcats with a good data.

Since the starting lineup of the Kings has been formed, after Kapono was traded, he can only play on the bench and contribute to the team.

But as Liu Rui said before, Adelman is a complete player who likes to use and already has his own system.

Under Adelman's Princeton tactics, Kapono still got good playing time.

Although he left Wallace and Ariza's help defense, Kapono's defensive loopholes were gradually enlarged, so that Adelman did not dare to send him to play at critical moments.

But in regular time, Kapono's three-pointer is still a big killer in the league.

After all, compared to his previous life, Kapono grew faster and became stronger under Liu Rui's hands.

But what still can't change is his extremely bad defense.

And this time sitting in Saramento, Liu Rui is not very sure.

After all, the departure of Brezek and Knight will definitely allow the Bobcats to re-run for a period of time.

The most important thing is that Jefferson is still on the sidelines due to the last ankle sprain.

Liu Rui didn't take the risk of letting him come back early. After all, the current Bobcats really need a period of time. Instead of playing with an injury, it is better to heal the injury more thoroughly.

Otherwise, after the deal is over but facing season reimbursement, then Liu Ruike will really commit seppuku.

Losing the two main players, Brezek and Knight, and facing a tactical reshuffle, in this game, the Bobcats are close to death against the Kings.

And it is.

Due to the tactical changes of the Bobcats throughout the game, the team's offensive firepower was greatly attenuated. Facing the heavily armed Kings, they lost without any suspense.

On the road with:

87:102
Lost to the Kings by 15 points.

And Liu Rui was not disappointed after the game. After all, after every transaction, the team will definitely face a new run-in.

What's more, the transaction is based on the previous team's tactical axis, but for this transaction, although the Bobcats do suffer some losses from the current point of view, in the future, this transaction will definitely make a lot of money.

Due to the growth of age, it is difficult for Knight to return to the peak, and Brezek is the peak season of his career this season, and he will disappear after a few seasons.

Although Brezek will prolong his career in this life because of his own changes, compared with the healthy Jefferson, the two are indeed not at the same level.

The only bright spot in this match, and to Liu Rui's comfort, was that in the duel between Martin and Kapono, Martin had the absolute upper hand.

Since the opponents on the next road trip will be very strong, Liu Rui has already prepared for a losing streak.

Let the rookies grow up during this period of time, and the players hone their tactics well. After Jefferson comes back, it is the time for the Bobcats to really rise.

马丁本场比赛出场了31分钟，17投8中，三分球6中3，罚球5中5，拿到了24分4篮板2助攻的数据。

24 points is also a new high for Kevin Martin's personal career.

There are not many rookies who have unlimited shooting rights in their rookie season, but Liu Rui is very clear about their potential in future generations.

So I am very willing to give them more shot rights in advance, not to mention in this kind of game that is undoubtedly lost.

And because the suspense in this game is not too big, Kapono also played 26 minutes off the bench, making 9 of 4 shots and 6 of 2 three-pointers. He also scored 10 points and 1 rebound.

He continued to play his role on the bench, and despite his defense, his performance was fairly stable.

But compared with Kevin Martin, this data does seem a bit unsatisfactory.

1 month 10 number

The Bobcats fly to Phoenix to challenge the Suns back-to-back.

In the last match between the two teams, relying on the Bobcats' excellent offensive firepower and Wallace's final decision, they helped the Bobcats beat the Suns in an away game, giving the Suns their only defeat in December.

The fight again at this time can be said to be different.

In the last match, the team's three main players Brezek, Kapono and Knight were all traded away.

Although rookie Martin's offensive firepower in the team is even better than Kapono's.

But due to rookie Jefferson's inability to play, the game lost its suspense prematurely.

The Bobcats finished the game with:

89:115
The 26-point defeat to the Suns allowed the Suns to avenge their last upset.

Liu Rui sat on the sidelines in this campaign and did not have much psychological fluctuations. With Brezek's departure, the Bobcats' tactical system was directly disrupted.

It needs to be adjusted. Facing a team like the Suns, last time I was lucky enough to win the next game.

Now that Jefferson can't play, the Bobcats basically have no hope of winning.

So in the last few games, Liu Rui has also started training to his heart's content, giving newcomers more opportunities.

Smith, Karim and others were directly rested.

Anyway, it's all about training, so that these veterans can retain their strength and wait for Jefferson to come back, and the Bobcats will be regrouped and ready to go. That's when they are really needed.

本场比赛，马丁出场了29分钟，18投7中，三分球6中2，罚球7中6，拿到了22分3篮板2助攻的数据。

Although the personal hit rate in this game is low, the consecutive scoring of more than 20 points has made more and more people optimistic about Martin's future.

Okafor played 23 minutes. In this kind of game that must be lost, Liu Rui will try to control Okafor's playing time as much as possible. After all, he has always had potential injuries.

If it wasn't for injuries, in his last life, he wouldn't have ended up being out of the competition.

在23分钟的上场时间里，奥卡福11投6中罚球2中2，拿到了14分7篮板4助攻的数据，继续领跑全联盟的新秀榜。

Howard and Ben Gordon are ranked second and third closely behind.

And because of Brezek's departure, Okafor was also mentioned in the starting lineup by Liu Rui in these few games.

So for the defensive counterattack with Wallace, the cooperation naturally fell on Okafor.

But because the two have just run in, it is inevitable that there will be many mistakes.

Liu Rui is not in a hurry about this. After all, Okafor had a certain coping ability in his previous life, and he can only practice more for this kind of coordination...
