New Century Basketball Frenzy

Chapter 393 The second defeat of the season

After a few minutes of transition from the bench, Wacker and the Knicks coach changed back to the main players one after another.They also understand that fans want to see who plays.

The so-called five-up and five-down is still a key moment to replace the main force. This is one of the ways the head coach teaches them a lesson.Whether these main players are worthy of the title of main force is because they must have super adjustment ability.

After playing again, the offensive situation between the Lakers and the Knicks changed immediately.

Because they got off the court before because they were the champions of the East and West. As a result, no one defended the two teams.This is not a normal thing at all.

Not to mention that the Lakers are clearly the top three teams in the league in defensive efficiency.He actually followed the Knicks to bombard him without defense. This is what made Wack the most angry.

As for the Knicks' defensive efficiency being greatly reduced, the reason for this is that the team's core Thomas is resting due to injury.

With him or without him, it's really two teams.Glyde and Thomson are indeed super strong, but this does not mean that they are qualified team leaders.

The golf quotient is not something that can be seen from Glide's overall vision and assist ability.Without a real leader led by a player like Thomas, their tactics and style of play can easily go astray.

Zhang Yi's personality and ability are still much worse than those of Thomas, which has nothing to do with basketball skills.Insufficient age and insufficient experience are the result of this.

This is why it is difficult for a rookie to lead a team to achieve really good results.Regardless of the fact that the Lakers are now playing well in the regular season.

But if we really want to enter the playoffs, it will be hard to tell the result when everyone starts to fight head-to-head.

The reason why the Golden State Warriors can win consecutive championships is also because of Curry's personal leadership ability, which is also not comparable to Thomas.

The so-called superstar does not mean that his data and personal performance are strong enough.Because being able to lead the team to victory at critical moments and the ability to fight tough battles are the key.

No matter what people say, Zhang Yi is the successor of Curry.But what people mean is that Zhang Yi will become a small Curry in the future.That's why no one sees him as a league superstar right now.

The rookie still played too few games, and the audience didn't even know where his bottom line was. It was also a big problem that there was no conflict.

As for physical factors and various will factors, Zhang Yi is still under investigation by fans and the media.Although the performance is very good now.But this does not mean that he can persist until the day he becomes a god.

Now the Lakers already have the opportunity to take Zhang Yi into the playoffs and even further series.

But this does not mean Zhang Yi's own ability to lead the team. There is no performance in the fourth quarter, no test at the critical moment of life and death, and no various changes and duels in the series.

Zhang Yi still has a lot of time to improve his abilities in the future.The Lakers are not only focused on cultivating their own leaders now.

After all, there are too many rookies in their team.Even now it seems that Robert may not have such strong ability as Zhang Yi.But no one knows what the future holds.

Although Wacker watched them grow up.But entering the NBA can be regarded as a new life.Every player will have the opportunity to change his future.

Whether it is Robert or Wall-E, they have the same power to get the opportunity to perform.This will not change because of WACKER's personal preference.

Otherwise, the head coach is likely to destroy a rookie.That's one of the difficulties with teams with more rookies.The current Lakers are looking for the most suitable positions for Robert and Wally for them. As for whether they are the main force or an important role on the bench, it depends on how they grow in the future.

Players' future cannot be forced, nor can they be allowed to grow sloppily.One of the reasons why Wally was excluded by the team before was that he didn't know how to adjust the relationship between rookies and veterans.

Back then, he devoted himself to cultivating newcomers, although the training was a bit too much.But the future proves that the players he chooses are indeed capable.

It's just that the veteran Lakers didn't understand Wally's approach at all, coupled with high-intensity training, there will be conflicts between new and old players, which will affect his coaching position.

And although Wally was resisted by the players back then, it doesn't mean that his coaching experience was a complete failure.After all, he did bring out a future star.

Although no one saw it at the time.Although the Lakers retained him, the team manager at the time was originally a friendly role.

A tough coach like Wally is not used to cooperating.After all these years everything is different.

Although the general manager of the Lakers has changed so many times and became a woman Gianna for the first time in history, she has the blood of the black mamba in her body, so she is born full of fighting spirit.

This is exactly in line with Wally's personality.Moreover, both of them are very capable, and they don't pay attention to the process. The result is the most important thing in their eyes.

Whether it's Zhang Yi, Robert or Wally, it doesn't matter who gets drafted.The important thing is to get the Lakers out of the deep end directly through all the strength this year.

It's just that Jaina and Wacker's cooperation is unexpectedly good.Although their lineup has not reached the level of a real championship contender.

But obviously, with Zhang Yi's growth rate, this little Curry's successor has a promising future!

At the critical moment of the game, the Knicks' two giants also played a very high level.They led the team to complete the reversal of the score.

It's just that this aspect is because of the quality of their offense.It is also because of preventing the inexperienced Lakers rookies from hitting a new low.

The Knicks lineup is not without defense, on the contrary, they have experience in the finals.In tough battles, he already has an advantage over the Lakers players.

Especially when the game comes to the fourth quarter, time is running out.The offense was delayed, and even Zhang Yi became a lot more impatient.

None of them are born with a full-scale tuba, these things must be experienced to grow up.

Wacker also called a timeout normally, and then helped the players adjust.Their touch has been unable to open because their personal offenses are not in a comfortable position.

The Knicks' defense is very smart. They know how to force opponents out of their comfort zones and take shots in areas they are not good at.Although the defensive pressure on the surface is not great, it is actually very powerful.

Zhang Yi was even affected. His three-pointer was not very stable, but now as long as he breaks through the middle, he will encounter various double-teams.

The great situation of the Lakers was reversed in this way, and finally suffered the second loss of the new season!
