The Pope of Basketball Community

At the press conference, major media focused on interviewing Yang Rui. Bayi Chinese? Net Ｑ㈧Ｑ㈧W． 81ZW. com

The battle of wits between rookie coaches and famous historical coaches is a highlight of this series, but the result was one-sided, and the young Raptors easily advanced.

The reporter asked: "Can you comment on Coach Daly?"

Yang Rui smiled and said: "He is a very great coach. In terms of coaching, we have many similarities. We are both good at combining different personalities and different types of players and giving full play to their advantages. A good relationship should be the first step of a coach.”

The reporters were all stunned. They had never seen such a brazen person, who first said that the other party was great, and then said that he was similar to the other party. What is the way?

Thinking about it for a moment, Yang Rui seemed very smart. As a winner, he said he was like Dai Li. Who can say that he doesn't respect his predecessors?

Moreover, they have some similarities.

Whether it is the dream team superstars Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley, or individual players Dennis Rodman and Isiah Thomas, they all get along well with Daly and play well under him. The Raptors are a group of newcomers who got together and performed impressively.

The reporter asked: "How do you evaluate the Magic?"

"If I were to coach this Magic, I wouldn't have the confidence to take them into the playoffs, but Coach Daly led the team to the fifth place, which is amazing. Of course, this has a lot to do with the coaching style, I prefer offense player."

The reporter asked: "The general idea in the league is that defense wins the championship. Do you think you can beat the Knicks in the next round with offense and advance to the Eastern Conference Finals?"

Yesterday, the Knicks eliminated the 76ers 3-0. They also relied on defense to win, and the Knicks had more attack points. Iverson's hit rate is barely 40%, and he can't be a lone hero.

"In my opinion, to win a championship requires a balance of offense and defense. Softness and lack of rigidity are offensive and invincible, and rigidity without softness is a waste of effort. The combination of rigidity and softness is my basketball philosophy." Yang Rui used the concept of Chinese kung fu Yes, Chinese fans will definitely be very happy to see it.

Some reporters still didn't give up and wanted to catch Yang Rui. "In the playoffs, strong defense and offensive position are the best ways to win. The Raptors are the team with the most fast breaks in the league. Do you feel that you are walking a difficult road that violates the laws of basketball?"

Yang Rui smiled slightly. "There is an idiom in China called "Extreme things must be reversed", which means that when things are developed to the extreme, they will transform in the opposite direction. Therefore, I firmly believe that the main tone of basketball in the future will be offense.

It will be shots away from the basket, it will be fast-paced transitions. The Raptors will lead the new trend, we are the future! "

The reporters frantically took pictures, this is a declaration to make headlines!

A reporter asked: "Experts analyze that you are likely to win the best coach award in the regular season this season. What do you think?"

The major awards of the nBa regular season have not yet been selected, but it is almost a certainty that Yang Rui will win the best coach.

The selection is to compare with the team record of last season. Although the teams of Dunleavy and Vicki had better records, they did not make much progress. If the award is not given to Yang Rui this year, it can be canceled directly. Larry Bird's performance last season was not at the same level as him.

"I want to win, and it's more important to win the next series right now."

After the interview was over, the reporters sorted out their manuscripts and prepared their columns immediately. The news would definitely be popular. Yang Rui has shown amazing ambition, he is not satisfied with the record in the second round of the playoffs.

In other games, the Pacers eliminated the Pistons 3-1, the Western Spurs eliminated the Timberwolves 3-1, the Trail Blazers eliminated the Rockets 3-0, and the Lakers eliminated the Kings 3-1.

Jazz Vs Suns, Heat Vs Eagles all tied 2-2, waiting for the final battle of life and death.

The meeting between the Knicks and the Raptors became the focus of the second round, attracting everyone's attention. In addition to the confrontation between old and new stars, there is also the confrontation between Yang Rui and Van Gundy.

There are basketball experts on major radio stations to analyze the pros and cons of the two teams and predict the outcome.

Center Ewing Vs Willis. The Knicks are dominant, and Willis' efficiency is still there, but he can't compare with the four major centers.

Power forward Larry Johnson Vs Jermaine O'Neal, the Knicks have the upper hand. Jermaine O'Neal has improved a lot. He showed his star appearance in a few games, that's all. On the offensive end, Johnson is more comprehensive and experienced.

Small forward Bruce Bowen Vs Carter. The Raptors have the upper hand, and Bowen is a fake. His role is to defend, and the offensive corner is opened to wait for an opportunity to shoot. Whether Carter can beat Bowen is considered by many experts to be the key to the Raptors' victory.

Shooting guard Allan Houston vs Christie. The Knicks are dominant, Houston has All-Star strength, mVp in the finals last season, stable mid-range shots, top off-ball ability, and Christie is just a role player.

Point Guard: Charlie Ward Vs Billups. The Raptors have the upper hand. Billups has not improved much this season, but he is better than Ward, an outside blue-collar, averaging only 7.6 points and 5.4 assists per game. Point guard is the biggest weakness of the Knicks.

The bench competition was evenly matched. The Knicks' bench was led by Sprewell. There were two excellent blue-collar players in the interior. Charles and Jackson also worked hard on defense and were considered to be the league's strongest defensive bench.

The Raptors are just the opposite. They are the most offensive substitutes, led by Tracy McGrady, Di Brown, and Detref.

Most experts are optimistic about the Knicks' advancement, the team has a luxurious lineup, the stars are more famous, they have rich experience in the playoffs, and they also have home court advantage.

The funny thing is that some experts believe that the biggest advantage of the Raptors is the head coach. Jerry Young beat Jeff Van Gundy, can arrange targeted tactics, and has excellent on-the-spot adaptability.

Van Gundy seldom adjusted his tactics during the game, and his style of play was similar in every game. There was a scene where McBrin couldn't help complaining during the commentary, saying that Van Gundy forgot to set up tactics after watching the cheerleading performance.

And the media mocked Van Gundy. The Philadelphia Times said: "Although the Knicks swept the 76ers, they did not have an overwhelming advantage. The weakness is the head coach. If it was the Knicks last season, the 76ers might lose 20 points per game."

Canadian media said: "Jerry Young is a man who will perform miracles. He could help the Knicks beat the Bulls last season. Of course, he may also lead the Raptors to beat the Knicks. The Raptors won two games in the regular season."

The Los Angeles Times said: "Jerry Young proved that he is an unscrupulous genius. Van Gundy's offense is following the tactics he left behind last season. Think about the poor performance of the Knicks at the beginning of the game. Van Gundy became the public enemy of New York fans."

The New York media fought back and did not speak for Van Gundy. "The Raptors entered the second round because of the shortened season, and the physical fitness and impact of young players played a role. The defensive intensity in the playoffs is higher. It is impossible for them to beat the Knicks. The nBa championship is by no means a group that just left. The young people in the university can get what they can get by doing the core."

The players and coaches of both sides are very low-key. They don't mention the outcome. What they say before the game is a waste of time. The result determines everything.
