I'm a big shot in basketball

NO.12 Match day, gather at [-]:[-] am,

After watching the video, the whole team was about to return to the court from the multimedia center. Su Yang beckoned to keep the smiling Garnett behind.

"Your agent Andy Miller called me last night, hoping to increase your possession of the ball, do you know?" It is said that the agent is doing things for the player, and the call has already been made. How could he not know yet, but adding Nate's situation is quite special,

His agent, Andy Miller, likes to steal by chance. He not only poachs corners and takes away all the clients of his old club that helped him become famous, but also engages in various illegal operations. Before, he contacted potential player Rick Barkley in violation of regulations, and encouraged him to give up college directly. Participating in the draft is convenient for him to earn commissions as soon as possible, completely disregarding the long-term development of potential players, and the Timberwolves' Yin-Yang contract was also involved.

With Garnett graduating from high school and not studying hard, it is very likely that he will be bewitched by Miller and make some troubles.

The call may have been made by Miller himself.

When Su Yang recruited Billups last year, he had some contact with Miller, and he didn't have a good impression. Fortunately, Billups was very firm at the time, and the contract offered by the Warriors was no worse than that of the Pistons and other opponents. Nothing unpleasant happened. matter.

"I know." Garnett raised his hand and slapped his forehead fiercely, looking helpless and regretful, but desperately needed and very entangled.

"Then did you propose to increase the possession of the ball, or was it suggested by your agent Miller?" Su Yang asked, thinking that if Garnett proposed it on his own initiative, the handling would need to be more careful and gentle. Simple and brutal.

"I didn't take the initiative to mention it, and he didn't directly give suggestions. Instead, he analyzed how to face the current predicament. The final solution was to increase the possession of the ball to prove his strength..." Garnett talked about why he needed to increase possession of the ball.

Su Yang didn't even bother to listen.

It is not impossible to increase the possession of the ball, but it can only be the case where Billups slapped the face and questioned the rationality of the All-Star starting. This kind of news in the team caused by the change of the MVP ranking wants to increase the possession of the ball. It's absolutely impossible.

After patiently listening to Garnett's story, he replied directly: "Your thinking is completely wrong. You are the best player of the month in the Western Conference in December. What more possessions need to be added there? Your problem is that your belief is not firm enough, and you are easily caught outside influence.

Against the Mavericks and the Rockets, Dirk Nowitzki and Boozer both played outstanding performances, not because your defense was not good enough, but because they played too well, but your beliefs are not strong enough, you are prone to self-doubt, and let the media bring you partial rhythm,

And the reason why your belief is not firm enough is that deep down in your heart you think that you came to the Warriors to hitch a ride,

Is it right? "

The current Garnett is like Durant in the historical trajectory. Although the nature is not so serious, it is inevitable to join the championship team and be said to be hitchhiking, including Garnett himself will be like Durant , Once you feel that you have not received due respect, you will easily become sensitive and suspicious, just like this two-game losing streak, being ridiculed by the media cannot prevent Nowitzki and Boozer.

If you don't interfere, Garnett's next step is likely to be like Durant, and start to try more heads-up to prove himself.

It hurts face to ask questions directly, but serious illness requires strong medicine.

"I…"

Garnett hesitated to speak, his expression full of embarrassment.

"If you think that way, you look down on yourself, you completely deny your past, you also look down on the Big Four of the Lakers, and you ignore the Spurs and Mavericks, two teams with championship potential, and you don't fully understand and agree with my offensive and defensive tactical system.

It's as if you can win the championship in June without doing anything. Do you think that is possible? "

Even if it is the historical trajectory of Durant joining the Warriors, it is not just to win the championship casually. Without Durant's stable scoring, how could the Warriors have surpassed the 18th Rockets, but the Warriors won the championship again in 22 years. Durant He was swept in the first round, and then he was unhappy and was ridiculed from an angle, which is very different from the reputation of fighting against the Bucks in 21 years.

"Why did we play the Lakers so easily?

Because of your assisting defense, combined with Yao Ming's marking, it is useless to let O'Neal, who is difficult to get the ball, get the ball many times.

Why is the fully upgraded Spurs still stable?

Because your sweep can help defend, so that Billups no longer has to worry about Parker's continuous changes of direction and abandoning screens.

Why did the Mavericks show a crushing trend in the first game?

Because after the opening game, you defended Dirk Nowitzki's Garnett four times in a row, and you also used an early switch to prevent Yao Ming from being targeted by Nash at that time. The Kings have not played the full version because of Webber's absence, but they will not compare Mavericks are stronger.

The biggest improvement you have brought to our Warriors is to complete the closed loop of defense, so that our defense is only afraid of the violent Kobe.

But Kobe's runaway times are very few. He chose to gain weight this season, and eating alone has indeed become stronger, and the sustainability is not as good as before.

I don't even need to talk about specific cases of offensive improvement.

Just talk about the statistics and you will understand that we scored 100 points per 114.7 possessions last season, and after you joined, we have scored 100 points per 118.6 possessions so far this season, so we often clock out in three quarters, do you understand?

Kevin, you have to be confident! "

After the words fell, Garnett covered his face with his hands and took a deep breath.

"My fault, I shouldn't be so sensitive and suspicious..."

Su Yang waved his hand, "I was also busy with the construction of the new arena recently, and I failed to take into account the publicity for you, resulting in the right to speak being taken away by media like "Sports Illustrated", and I failed to let fans understand how strong you are. , did not let you know your contribution very well, but the new arena is already busy, and I will start to promote the data evaluation system next,

Try to use data to quantify your performance, making it difficult for parallel media to find angles, so that fans can easily understand,

Also let you understand what you do. "

Garnett nodded in understanding.

"And you understand that the media and fans mock you for not being able to guard Dirk Nowitzki, not because you can't guard Dirk Nowitzki, but because you joined us, and you also worked hard to help us have a very good chance of defending the title, and at the same time get the MVP,

You threaten the interests of too many people, so they will try every means to influence your mentality and state.

Remember, the more you achieve, the more people will detract from you.

What you have to do is win the championship and swell their faces hard. "

Garnett nodded solemnly, looking excited as if he was ready to fight.

"Besides, you have to understand that there is no perfect player,

Just like Ben Wallace, he has won the Defensive Player of the Year twice in a row, and he may get the third time this year.

He can defend a lot of people, but facing Yao Ming, it is easy to suffer a big loss if there is no help defense, just like defending Dirk Nowitzki by yourself. In the first game of the season, Dirk Nowitzki was almost locked. Was hit by Nowitzki with a super high hit rate,

If you want to do a better job, if you can’t do it alone, let your teammates do it together. You can help Yao Ming solve the short board of mobility, and Yao Ming can also help you solve the short board of the last frame to withstand the impact. We are Team! "

Garnett nodded calmly, fully understanding.

Su Yang thought for a moment, "If possible, I suggest that you and Billups fire Andy Miller. Both of you still have a long contract, and you don't need an agent to negotiate the contract for you. If you want to engage in endorsement, I can arrange a broker for you,

Especially the endorsement from China. "

Andy Miller is also a scourge to keep, just to take this opportunity for Garnett and Billups to draw a line with it.

"Let's talk about the off-season. I'll go to training first." Garnett raised his hands and fists in greeting, and then walked out of the multimedia center.

Su Yang nodded and watched, knowing that although he didn't directly agree to dismiss Miller, he was sure of it. What would an agent do if he took the player astray? After thinking about it again, if he went with the team for six consecutive trips, not to mention a complete victory, As long as the Mavericks or the Rockets win a game, Garnett's reputation will not be subject to such a big attack. It is no wonder that Mike Brown called to apologize overnight.

After pondering for a while, I rushed to the office and called Raymond, the media director, and instructed to open a long-term data update column on the "Warrior's Home" website, "You first arrange someone to cooperate with the video analysis side to explain the high-level data on our official website. Necessity and importance, and then after every game, every week and every month, explain to the fans who in our team is doing well..."

Right now ESPN is not dealing with itself, and TNT doesn't know much about hype, so the right to speak must be mastered personally.

Anyway, we can’t be like the Warriors in the historical track, let what’s “Tyron Lue thinks Curry is a more dangerous person for the Warriors”, “Durant is replaced by Paul? George can also win two consecutive championships”, “Durant forced The FMVP is not going out' the remarks spread,

Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, stay away from remarks that affect the morale of the army.

"In addition, we need to open a video column to analyze the video produced there, and tell the importance of Yao Ming, Garnett, Billups and others from the perspective of professionals, so that fans can understand why they don't need to watch ESPN's analysis ..."

By the way, the video will provide some foundation for the future YouTube.

"Okay, I'll do it right away."

Raymond took the order and left in a hurry.Su Yang then called Robert, the director of operations, to the office and instructed to use the image of the Big Three as 'Garnett Yao Ming Billups' to canvass votes. The effect is still secondary, mainly reflecting the status of the three in the Warriors.

"Huge posters on both sides of the highway are also arranged, trying to make all players in the team feel valued..."

During the busy schedule, the pre-match interview at [-] pm.

Talking about the changes in the MVP rankings of Dayao and Garnett, as well as "Sports Illustrated"'s evaluation of Garnett picking peaches,

Su Yang said with a smile: "Sports Illustrated's feature this time is very amateurish. Perhaps the editor chose to deliberately discredit it for some reason, or it is a rare situation in NBA history where two players on the same team rank among the top five MVPs.

Let that editor not report how,

I won't go into why, and I won't be buying Sports Illustrated anyway unless they publicly apologize.

As for the change in the MVP ranking, I don’t know how to calculate it. Anyway, last year we had the first record and no player ranked in the top five. This year suddenly two players ranked in the top five. Could it be that the calculation or statistical rules have changed? "

With just a few words, Su Yang easily pointed out that the changes in the "Sports Illustrated" and the MVP ranking list were not professional enough.

Fans and the media followed closely to discuss.

The game started at six o'clock, against the Grizzlies who were gaining momentum.

Garnett's offensive and defensive ends were full, and Dayao's cooperation with Dayao made the Grizzlies Gasol and Lorenzen suffer again and again, helping the Warriors lead 42 to 21 in the first quarter, and Richardson came off the bench with a wave 11 to 3 into garbage time.

The Warriors clocked in three more quarters, and finally defeated the Grizzlies 125 to 101. Garnett and Yao scored 59 points and 29 rebounds.

Discussion after the TNT trio,

Barkley sighed and said: "My little brother Su Yang is too good. There were so many discussions about Garnett's hitchhiking to pick peaches before, but there was no negative situation in this game. Garnett also has a better understanding with BIG Yao. ferocious,

He must have arranged to shoot a documentary, when the time comes to see how he let the Warriors establish that wonderful atmosphere,

That's something the 96 Bulls didn't do either. "

Kenny Smith answered: "I think the reason is very simple. Some people always say that the Warriors Garnett and BIG Yao are two insiders. The two bosses are one inside and one outside, but the real boss of the Warriors has always been Su Yang. He wasn't the boss last year,

Some people say that Su Yang learned from Popovich and never wanted a player with a perverse personality like Rodman.

for better management of the team.

But Su Yang can make Francis, who likes to play around, play seriously when he is in the Rockets, but Jeff Van Gundy can't do it at all when he coaches the Rockets. champion! "

During the compliments, Su Yang finished the replay in the locker room.

Assistant coach Mike Brown joked: "Tomorrow we will face the Chosen Son LeBron back to back. To be honest, I competed for the head coach of the Cavaliers before. The Cavaliers wanted a coach who could help LeBron grow better. I lost to Sergeant in the end. Russ.

Sue, if you coach the knights,

How would you help LeBron grow? "

Stevens and other assistant coaches all cast curious eyes, yes, the craziest high school player in NBA history,

How to help LeBron grow?

Su Yang chuckled: "Teach him a lesson tomorrow."
