NBA bad guys

Tom Gugliotta's expression changed continuously. He had many things to consider.

For example, status.

If you play as a substitute, your status on the court will naturally be reduced. Moreover, salary levels will also decline. And it’s all a chain reaction. Because you play as a substitute in this team, when you get to the next team, they will treat you as a substitute, and it will be difficult to become a starter again.

If this is the case, it will have a huge impact on his entire future career.

He had to think carefully.

Because this is not only his own business, but also his family's. The salary level is related to whether his family can live a good life.

It's all so important.

Therefore, he must consider carefully.

Wu Liang took a step forward and continued: "Tom Gugliotta, sometimes you can set your sights further. If the Minnesota Timberwolves can go further and become a playoff team, And if you can perform well in it, even the next contract should never be a small contract. This is a long-term consideration.

In addition, if you are confident that you can play in the starting lineup, then when you face your opponent's second lineup, you will definitely be very confident in defeating them. There is an idiom in China called Tian Ji horse racing, which means this. .

That way, you have a greater chance of competing for the best sixth man, so by that time, you may be able to get a hefty contract. "

Tom Gugliotta suddenly smiled, looked at Wu Liang, and said, "I have to say, your football skills are good, but compared with your pie-drawing skills, they are still far behind."

Wu Liang smiled helplessly and said: "You must not think that I am trying to paint a picture for you. What I am talking about is a real thing. This is how it is."

During the halftime break, the team did not arrange any tactics. They almost always gave Tom Gugliotta time to wait and think about it.

In fact, the results he considered were far more important than the outcome of this game.

Tom Gugliotta sits and stands for a while. In fact, in his heart, he has always longed for a championship ring. Yes, who plays in the NBA and doesn’t hope that he can win a championship? Well, that is the sign of a successful man.

But before, I just suffered from lack of access.

But today he saw the performance of several newcomers on the court, and he did see a glimmer of hope.

Kevin Garnett already showed his talent last year, and his strength this year has improved compared to last year. This is an indisputable fact, and both in terms of offensive rhythm and defensive level, he has improved. A very big improvement.

Wu Liang has very good results on both offense and defense.

On the offensive end, just his stable mid-range hand can scare most opponents, and his powerful breakthrough hand can cause great damage to the opponent, which is indeed good.

Finally, there’s Ben Wallace.

This man took his place. Tom Gugliotta should have hated him, but this young man's performance really conquered him.

Although he didn't score much, he was quite strong in rebounding and defense.

Even facing Patrick Ewing, he was not afraid at all.

If Tom Guglio had played himself, it wouldn't have had such a huge impact on Patrick Ewing, that's for sure.

How is this?

Moreover, if he, Kevin Garnett and Wu Liang serve as the starting lineup, all three of them will need a certain amount of shooting rights. In this way, all three of them will have to make corresponding sacrifices.

Ben Wallace perfectly avoided this disadvantage.

So playing as a substitute, now it seems, is the most beneficial option for the team.

He pondered for a long time and finally stood up slowly.

Bill Carlisle said, "Well, Tom Gugliotta, how are you thinking about it?"

Tom Gugliotta thought for a moment and said: "I can play as a substitute, but I also want to see how good you are. If we can win this game, I will play as a substitute wholeheartedly to help the Minnesota Timberwolves. On to the playoffs.”

Wu Liang smiled and said: "Tom Gugliotta, you finally made a very wise choice."

Kevin Garnett was also very happy and said: "Don't worry, we will definitely become a huge dark horse this year."

After hearing Tom Gugliotta's words, James Robinson and Sam Mitchell seemed to feel a lot more relaxed. In this way, it seemed that the team was truly integrated.

They were finally going to be a unit again.

Is it the bright sunshine or the abyss that awaits them?

A bold idea suddenly popped up in their minds at this moment. In June next year, we might have a chance to win the O'Brien Cup.

……

On the New York Knicks' bench, Jeff Van Gundy's expression was much uglier.

Indeed, whoever is the head coach of the team will not be in a good mood right now. After all, the two All-Stars on the team were actually restricted by the opponent's three young boys.

Ewing, who is the top player in the league, is actually restricted.

If you say this, who will believe it?

Jeff Van Gundy sat on the chair with an ugly face. He looked at Alan Houston for a while, then at Patrick Ewing for a while, and said calmly: "I think you two must have something to say. I respect your performance." Very dissatisfied.

Especially you, Alan Houston, can't you even guard a rookie?

He can easily get rid of you every time and then easily enter his shooting area. "

Alan Houston gritted his teeth and looked extremely ugly. He took a deep breath and said: "I know I didn't do well enough, but I worked hard enough. He is stronger than I thought, and his breakthrough rhythm is The feeling is very strong and very confusing.”

Patrick Ewing also shook his head and said: "I was also trying to block him, but his arms were very long. Even if I wanted to block the shot, it was difficult, so I could only rush out with all my strength, but I Once you get out there, there’s no way to guarantee backcourt rebounds.”

The team's power forward, Charles Oakley, looked ugly and said apologetically: "Kevin Garnett's arms are too long. He can always find a way to take the rebound off my head."
