Chapter 35 - [The temptation to go home]

  To convince a person, one must come up with a point of view that convinces him.

  Yang Rui persuaded Van Gundy in tactics. The two had to persuade the players together to make them willing to accept the arrangement. If the player is unruly on the court, the coach says nothing.

   The coach is on paper, and the players are the real players. No matter how good the coach is just a mentor, not a player, you can’t use the handle to control the player’s actions.

   went to Charlotte to check in at the hotel, Van Gundy first came forward to find players to communicate, and then called Yang Rui to discuss the countermeasures in his room.

   “Convincing Charles is simple, he is willing to accept the substitute.”

   Yang Rui was relieved. He really couldn’t look down on Oakley’s offensive ability. He started with Johnson. One of the two had to be forced to defend the small forward. This arrangement was rotten.

   In the early 1990s, Oakley was a defensive blue-collar, and the offense was all about picking up leaks. Occasionally, he showed a small CIC that other muscle sticks envy. Now, he only cares about the victory, not the data, and he doesn’t need to rely on the data to prove himself.

  Vandi said: “There is still a problem, Larry wants to increase the ball this time.”

   “Why?”

   “Are you still asking? The Hornets are his old club.”

   There is an enemy in the NBA called the old club! In particular, it is absolutely shameful for players to run away with the old club or be swept away. In 1996, the Hornets replaced Larry Johnson with Knicks power forward Anthony Mason Jr. Mason’s reputation is far from comparable to Johnson’s, and it is a bargain.

  Mason is also a short inside, only 201CM tall and weighs 113 kg is very strong, the style is very different in this era, the best is to respond to the pass.

   Johnson’s actual height is not yet 198CM, but the technology is much more comprehensive, only to change Mason makes him feel humiliated, whenever he returns to Charlotte to face the Hornets, he always wants to prove himself.

   Yang Rui is a rebirth, and thinks that this kind of revenge of the old club is very boring. It was not common for players to change teams in the 1990s, and this will be a business in the future.

In his previous life, Gudeng, Barnes, Amundsen, who changed more than 10 teams, played all old clubs. They played 4 games in the same season in the same district, and scored dozens of revenge in a season. Does this make sense?

   Yang Rui smiled and asked: “Are you sure you want to do this? If you insist on Larry being the core, Mason is about the same height and weight as him, so it’s not easy to fight.”

   Van Gundy nodded: “If he does not meet this simple requirement, he will have an idea in his heart. You have to understand the player’s mentality. The coach’s job is not only to arrange tactics, but also to appease the players.”

   Yang Rui sighed softly. Do you still appease the players? You look good at Johnson! Seeing those who don’t look good, please don’t let them play. You don’t know what your virtue is in the future.

He pondered for a moment and thought of his idea well: “It is more reasonable that Larry shot to the perimeter. If the opponent’s big defender came out, he then played a pick-and-roll with the defender. The defender broke through to attract the inside player to change the defense. Then he distributed the ball to him. He played against poor outsiders in a misplaced position and he could break through.”

  Van Gundy tasted it, and could not fault it. “Then fight like this.”

   talked a few more words, Yang Rui returned to the room to rest, Fan Gandi sighed deeply, and found that Yang Rui seemed stronger than himself.

  Yang Rui’s offensive tactics are very good, and the response is fast. There are often magical changes during the training camp. The victory is surprising. Van Gundy marveled at me: I rubbed it. Can the original attack be played like this?

   By comparison, the Knicks’ offensive tactics last season were ugly.

  Looked back on the sofa, Fan Gandi began to struggle again, Yang Rui joined, the ability to show no doubt, but he was not happy, too much pressure.

  What is a scary genius? You are afraid of being replaced, even more afraid of losing him.

  Yang Rui didn’t think he would put pressure on Van Gundy at all. He just made a case based on his future experience.

   On the morning of the 30th, the team conducted adaptation training.

  When Bowen heard that he was going to start, he stayed there for ten seconds and looked at his teammates. He wanted to ask if he had heard it wrong?

   teammates also looked at Bowen blankly, letting him know that he really did not miss it.

   and others were gone, Van Gundy stopped Bowen: “You are responsible for defending Glen Rice at night, you must follow closely, don’t let him easily shoot, the offensive end is in the right corner and other opportunities.”

   “Coach, thank you for your trust. Even if I break my leg, I won’t let Rice easily score.” Bowen said excitedly.

   Van Gundy smiled, did not say what Jerry highly recommended, and did not want to brand the player as a faction.

  Thanks to the players, you can thank the coaching staff, it is best not to thank a teaching assistant alone, otherwise the relationship between coaches will be embarrassing over time.

   Let Bowen deal with Rice, Van Gundy thought about it. Rice’s impact is not strong, the breakthrough ability is average, the offense is mainly a face shot. The two are about the same height, and Bowen is good at defending such people.

On the evening of 31st, the Hornets unveiled their home.

   is also a playoff team, but the Hornets’ attendance is not high because of the lack of a master balloon star.

  Last season, Rice got the MVP of the All-Star Game. In the third quarter, he scored 20 points, setting the highest score in the All-Star Game. His regular-season shooting percentage reached 45.6%, UU reading www.uukanshu.com three-point shooting percentage reached 40%, looking at career data can be side by side with Reggie Miller. But his fame is far less than that of Miller, which is a bit unbelievable.

   When Larry Johnson played, the fans responded with wild boos.

Johnson signed a super long contract with the Hornets when he first entered the league in 1991. The Hornets, who are not very rich in money, actually gave him a major contract of 110 million yuan in 12 years, which was the NBA’s first 100 million yuan contract. , Undoubtedly disappointed the Hornets expectations, fans have no good impression of him.

   Today’s national live broadcast of the opener is Jordan’s Bulls, and only local stations are concerned about the game. Even so, the newcomer is still very nervous, Atkins played very badly during the warm-up, often unable to vote. Moore and Jackson do not have such concerns, they simply did not make the roster of 12 people.

   Yang Rui was wearing a light blue casual suit sitting on the sidelines. Due to his youth, it seemed that there was a fan sitting on the players’ bench. The cameraman found it interesting, and gave him a close-up shot.

Charlotte local sports station narrator Arnold Tucao said: “The Knicks signed a young Chinese coach named Jerry in the summer. He and Tom led the team in the summer league and achieved a victory. Some people said that he is very capable, but From the image point of view, he really does not look like a coach.”

   “I don’t know if the Knicks will change this season because of the joining of Tom and Jerry.” Partner Lance laughed.

  Arnold laughed: “The Hornets lineup has not changed much from last season. Today’s challenge against the Knicks is also an opportunity. If you win a strong team at home, you can boost morale and start a good start.”

  Lance nodded: “The Knicks didn’t play well in the preseason. It depends on whether the Hornets can break through their defense.”

   Obviously, everyone thinks that the Knicks will still be defensive.
