MTL - Healing Basketball-Chapter 1028 Who is second?
Chapter 1028 Chapter 1028. Who is second?
Preseason games, training, and the adjustment of the Trail Blazers are in full swing.
Liu Xiu is very adaptable to such an adjustment, and he was also quite surprised. At first, he was worried that there would be some kind of inappropriateness.
After such a situation occurred, he thought about this problem in a state of highly clear thinking in the simulated training mode, and it was easy to figure it out.
Because his basic skills and techniques are already very suitable for playing like this.
When he used books to learn about running and gunning, there were no obstacles. The initial direction of the new system was proposed by him. He has a high degree of acceptance and is willing to listen to the arrangements of the coaches...
He was fortunate that he didn't care too much about whether it was suitable or not at the beginning. What he thought was to try it first, and then say if it was not suitable, which saved a lot of entanglement.
Anyway, he is the core. If he wants to make a fuss, the team can only get used to it.
And he's not messing around, even if he fails, it's just not suitable...
Now it's confirmed, this toss, the probability of success is very high!
But there is one thing he finds very strange. As the preseason progresses, Mustache often talks to him about running and bombing, and discusses the details of running and bombing tactics.
Although Liu Xiu found it strange that the Trail Blazers didn't play running and gunning, but it happened that there was something he didn't understand in his theory of running and gunning. Attacking is helpful.
Also, every time you discuss running and bombing with Mustache, you can get healing points!
He didn't know why Mustache would provide a wave of healing value every time, and he obviously had a good chat every time.
He felt that there was something wrong with the mustache's designation, but it didn't matter, he got the healing value, and the things he didn't understand about the running and bombing tactics were also answered.
…
On the 24th, the Trail Blazers came to Los Angeles. On the 25th, they defeated the Clippers 105 to 88 in an away game, ending the preseason tour of the season.
The preseason ended, and on the second day, the Trail Blazers did not leave Los Angeles. This time, they prepared for a "long stay" and booked a hotel with 6 villas in Beverly Hills, as well as a private basketball stadium. rented for a week.
Because the regular season opener on October 30 is still played here, the opponent is the overall runner-up Lakers.
After resting all morning, at two o'clock in the afternoon, everyone came to the living room of the villa where the coaching staff lived for a meeting.
The first is to review the performance of the 8 preseason games, 4 wins and 4 losses, averaging 104.5 points per game, and 103.8 points per game, defeating the Thunder, Kings, Warriors, Clippers, and losing to the Nuggets , Jazz, Warriors, Mavericks.
Winning and losing, scoring and losing performance, these are just a few words.
Huo Tu, who is in charge of guiding offensive training, and Mark Jackson, who is in charge of guiding defensive training, focus on analyzing tactics.
As well as the performance and adaptability of each player under the new system.
Liu Xiu feels that the coaches are deliberately emphasizing 'who is more suitable' and 'who is less suitable'.
The purpose may be to let these players understand the reasons for the increase or decrease in playing time. It is not suitable for the tactical system, and the reduction in playing time should be.
It may also be a hint to a player who may be traded-you just don't fit the team system.
People’s hearts are always changing.
When I first came up with the idea of a transaction, I might be impatient, but after a long time, the influence of "friendship" began to appear. I still feel that I don't want to make my colleagues who have worked together for so long sad, and I can make up for it.
Liu Xiu, who was in a distracted state, heard his nickname, focused, looked at the projection screen, and analyzed him.
The reason why he dares to distract himself is because he is very aware of the specific situation of each teammate during training and competition. After training every day and after every game, the coaching staff will talk to him about it.
Sometimes a teammate's performance is good or bad. It's not the teammate's personal problem. He, the tactical core, has played a role to some extent.
But when it came to him, all the coaches praised him.
He looked at the data of his 8 games, averaging 31 minutes per game, scoring 9.4 points, 10.5 rebounds, 6.9 assists, 2 steals, 0.9 blocks, 4 turnovers and 4.5 fouls.
He felt that there were actually many problems with his performance.
Low scoring, low shooting percentage, and many turnovers are not problems.
He shoots less, and sometimes has the opportunity to counterattack alone, he will not counterattack, deliberately slow down the positional battle, and increase the chance of a positional team attack.
And deliberately 'violated' the principle that 'the first goal of the organization core is to create shooting opportunities for itself'.
So there was a situation where the shooting percentage was less than 40%, and the average points per game were lower than the rebounds.
Because of this, there are more mistakes. In the official game, he must score more autonomously instead of deliberately playing tactics. All these can be improved.
Like he met Iverson's defense, there is no need to cooperate at all, and he can shoot in various positions.
What needs to be paid attention to is the "bad habits" developed last year, such as the inside block and the guards grabbing too many rebounds, which have an impact on the collective defense.
This was not brought up because the team's defense has been improving.
There is also his personal defense, and the fouls have increased!
The more brutal and clingy high-position single defense, the higher the probability of fouling.
The preseason referee whistle scale is generally very tight, and the league has been promoting the momentum of 'offensive priority' through tighter whistle scale.
But the main reason is that his personal movement scale is not in place.
High defensive gate—this is the first time he has played this role.
In the past, he was handed over to the small forward position, but after taking a long-term contract, the outsider began to consider transformation, to see if he could create more possibilities in the growth stage, and took the initiative to play the sixth man , so that the team's interest in Lu Wei is not high... The most direct reason for the team's loss of interest in Lu Wei is this, and Liu Xiu only recently found out.
Regardless of the chaotic ability, he averaged 21 minutes per game in 8 preseason games, scored 11.5 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1.2 steals, 1.1 blocks, and a 49.8 shooting percentage. He is more suitable for playing the sixth man than Lu Wei.
This summer, the extrajudicial lunatics also developed flanking three-pointers. In the preseason, they made a total of 10 three-pointers. The number of shots was 27 times, and the shooting percentage reached 37%. It can be used as the main countermeasure.
The transformation of the role of the extrajudicial fanatic is smooth, so he will not be able to return to the starting lineup. Hill, who is on the starting lineup, may become a defensive champion, but he is not a single-defense type, but a flank defense, shrinking, assisting defense...mainly, occasionally Going to play low backs.
This is the same as Liu Xiu's previous role.
Then Liu Xiu can only switch to a single defense. It just so happens that his top-level two-wing defense has been difficult to improve. When he played in the Olympics, he began to strengthen his ability in this area. Training camp'...yes, that name was given by an unnamed No. 24 player who demanded the ball, threatening to leave if he didn't take that name.
In the past two weeks, Liu Xiu not only learned high post and fadeaway jump shots from Kobe, but also asked for basic defensive skills.
The improvement is quite obvious. The coaches also praise him on the defensive end because they have seen his improvement in single defense. As for the "by-product" of too many fouls caused by too much confrontation, it will be fine with the improvement of single defense experience. .
These deficiencies are nothing to worry about for him. If you can see the deficiencies, find a way to make up for them. If you can't make up for them, you can just find them from the team. If the team can't solve them, then they can't solve them. Teams will have problems.
After analyzing the preseason situation, the coaching staff began to arrange the team training for the next day and a half. Tomorrow and the morning of the day after tomorrow will be the final stage of intensive training.
The day after tomorrow, it is time to prepare for the opening game against the Lakers.
Half of the afternoon was spent in the meeting, and when the meeting ended, it was already past 5 o'clock in the evening.
Originally, she planned to go out to find Kobe for a drink, but Liu Xiu wasn't that interested anymore.
Going to Kobe’s house, he is still used to making appointments in advance. Kobe has a sense of ritual in this regard, and he doesn’t want to destroy that sense of ritual.
But he has something more fun — video chatting with his family!
Not long ago, his second daughter learned to run!
Little Jay, who has been bullying his elder sister like an idiot, is being sanctioned by his second sister!
Compared to Anna who is stupid and cute, who was fooled by little Jay to do all the work that children should do, she is still complacent, Sophia is called a quirky, Anne-Hathaway's "wisdom" The name was not wrong, and she was tossing her brother with changing flowers every day.
Listening to Anne Hathaway talk about what kind of sanctions Little Jay encountered today is a happy time for Liu Xiu who is away from home every day.
…
It was a day off, and on the 27th, the Blazers' intensive training began!
During the meeting yesterday, Liu Xiu was speculating that it took more than half an hour to analyze whether it was suitable or not, maybe it was to pave the way for the transaction.
When we assembled this morning, Reed did not come.
The training did not have any problems because of the absence of Reed. Obviously, when the coaching staff planned this training, there was no Reed.
Teammates were discussing this matter after training, and some even went to ask assistant coaches and trainers to inquire about it.
Liu Xiu didn't bother with this, just train hard.
The coach and management did not inform him of the deal in advance, but he said it himself earlier, and he will tell him after these deals are reached.
At noon, after the deal was officially concluded, Liu Xiu got the first-hand information.
They sent Lou Williams in exchange for Steve Novak of the Clippers and the Pistons' 2010 conditional first-round pick from the Bulls.
The Bulls sent the first-round pick of the Pistons with multiple protections in 2010, Lynch Hunter, and exchanged veteran Tim Thomas from the Clippers.
The Clippers sent Tim Thomas in exchange for Lynch Hunter and Louis Williams.
Unsurprisingly, what the team wants is a shooter who can run, catch and shoot well, and doesn't occupy the ball.
Moreover, it is the water dispenser administrator who is willing to sit on the bench.
Novak, the second-round pick selected by the Rockets in 2006, was traded to the Clippers after the All-Star Weekend last season. In 15 games for the Clippers, he averaged 1.2 three-pointers per game with a 45% shooting rate. Three-pointers, the most interesting thing is the playing time-averaging 8 minutes per game.
Liu Xiu got the details in the information - 32 games in the second half of the season, played 15 games, and every time he played, he played for more than half of the quarter.
In the one and a half seasons with the Rockets, he played 70 games and averaged 11 minutes per game, but he was sporadic and his shooting performance was very poor, with only 33% of his three-pointers.
That is to say, this is not a player who can make contributions immediately after playing. He needs continuity in playing, but the conditions of use are not strict.
Their team's three pitchers who can play shooting guards and small forwards should be Ray Allen's main player, Korver's substitute, and Novak's injured substitute.
After thinking about it, Liu Xiu took a look at the protection clause of the draft pick. It was rather complicated. If the draft pick in 2010 was higher than the top 25, it belonged to the Bulls. The Bulls compensated the Trail Blazers for two second rounds. sign.
If it is a lottery pick, it belongs to the Nets, and the Nets compensate the Trail Blazers with two second-round picks.
The record of the Pistons next season is hard to say, and next season...unless the Pistons are determined to trade the heroes who won the championship, and they can still be taken advantage of, otherwise it will be difficult!
Then this draft pick may really only get two rounds.
Well, there is another reason to hope that Brother Dayao's record will take off.
…
In the evening, after the Trail Blazers finished training, Lu Wei appeared in front of his teammates.
Novak came to the arena where the Trail Blazers trained at 3 pm and completed the team inspection.
Reed went there early in the morning, and the time to complete the inspection was about the same as Novak...
Lu Wei crazily complained that the Clippers are stingy. Their team doctor is a "temporary worker". When it comes to the game, the cooperative hospital will send someone to the scene. He went to the designated medical examination item queued up by the hospital, and he used his medical insurance. , Reimbursement of bills needs to wait until payday.
Liu Xiu thought of a future interview. After Griffin was traded to the Pistons, the team doctor of the diss Clippers never reminded him of the impact of his style of play on his knees. It turned out to be such a thing.
It is estimated that when the trainers of the Clippers drew up the training plan and technical development plan for Griffin, there was no doctor involved at all. They saw that Griffin had talent and forced it, regardless of Griffin's center-level weight.
Although Lu Wei was complaining about the Clippers, Liu Xiu felt that Lu Wei left happily.
That is to say, he made a mistake in his judgment. The analysis of 'suitability' at yesterday's meeting was to save face for Lu Wei who was traded away, and to explain the reason for the transaction in advance.
The coaching staff... are really free.
Another reason to be happy about Lu Wei being traded to the Clippers, Liu Xiu speculates that the Clippers are short of guards.
Both Turtle and Karen Mok were sent away, Maggette left the team as a free agent, and the Clippers only had Baron Davis as a strong player in the back line. When Lu Wei went to the Clippers, he would immediately become the second choice in the back line. Instead of staying in their prison team to boil seniority.
In the evening, Liu Xiu entertained guests and saw Lu Wei off. The 22-year-old Lu Wei is more adventurous than before.
The aura displayed by the reed on the wine table is quite a bit like a flying mouse, and the atmosphere is very lively by the reed.
However, no matter how good the atmosphere is, a trade happened, and a player who had been with the team for 4 years was traded away, which is somewhat sad.
After dinner, the rest of the Trail Blazers returned to Beverly Hills, and Lu Wei took a taxi to the reserved hotel.
On the way back, Liu Xiu asked the vice president who was in the same car: "This deal brings back the players we need, but we are still at a loss. Although Luis is also marginalized in our team, but The value is still higher than a late first-round... No, it’s two second-round picks with not much higher picks + Novak, doesn’t it mean that you want a better return?”
Liu Xiu immediately received a reminder from the vice president of healing, and the healing value was +65.
The vice president rolled his eyes at the warden, and didn't want to talk to him. He still felt sorry for his record player.
Others are fine, but Lu Wei, who was selected by himself and has experienced the glory of the dynasty, the team still tried to meet his requirements when trading.
…
The trade failed to affect the training arrangement of the Trail Blazers, and the job of the new Novak is to accompany him.
On the 28th, she practiced all morning and was on vacation in the afternoon. Liu Xiu went to the address given by her aunt and Anne-Hathaway, bought some miscellaneous things, and bought a suitcase before taking it back to the villa smoothly.
On the 29th, the Trail Blazers began to prepare for the opening game.
Today's training is completely different from the past month. In the past month, we have been constantly adjusting tactics. Today's training is based on the team system and targeted training for the purpose of defeating the Lakers.
The Trail Blazers players have been looking forward to this day for a long time.
Finally time to test out the new system!
In addition to this, there is one more thing that the Trail Blazers players are looking forward to-the top 10 players will be announced today!
In terms of team rankings, the Trail Blazers have the highest No. 5, given by ESPN, and the lowest No. 9, given by Sports Illustrated.
Although it made them unhappy, seeing the Spurs ranked 7th at the highest and 11th at the lowest, they immediately felt better.
At noon, the three major media announced the unannounced rankings of the top 3 teams and top 10 players.
The teams are ranked in the top 3, and the three major media are unanimously unanimous—the defending champion Pistons are No. 1, the Lakers are No. 2, and the Bulls are No. 3.
But the player rankings vary greatly!
When the three major media announced the 20th to 11th place yesterday, it caused an uproar.
ESPN didn't put Artest in the top 10 when he was in his prime, and Sports Illustrated didn't put Nash in the top 10...
After the announcement of the last 10 player rankings, the Trail Blazers are satisfied anyway.
ESPN, Sports Illustrated, and T.N.T all put Liu Xiu in the first place!
A certain number 9 player who showed disdain for these lists in front of his teammates let out hearty laughter in the bathroom of the training hall...
On the Detroit side, the defending champion star who is preparing for the opening game is also very happy.
Yao Ming ranks in the top 5 in the league for the first time!
Although he was only No. 5, the three major media ranked him No. 5!
In the top 5 player rankings of the three major media, except for him, Liu Xiu is the only one.
ESPN: Liu Xiu No. 1, James No. 2, Paul No. 3, Duncan No. 4, Yao Ming No. 5... Kobe No. 8.
Sports Illustrated: Liu Xiu No. 1, Kobe No. 2, Garnett No. 3, Artest No. 4, Yao Ming No. 5... James No. 7.
T.N.T: Liu Xiu No. 1, Kobe No. 2, Garnett No. 3, James No. 4, Yao Ming No. 5.
After a certain No. 9 player who almost fainted from laughing in the toilet recovered, he laughed wildly again when he saw the rankings of the players behind him.
The teammates outside are really starting to worry that the boss will not laugh and twitch...
