Chapter 418 [Fake super giant, open the door to blackmail]

Arenas was just poached from the Warriors by Unseld who offered a high-paying long-term contract in the summer. How could he be traded away immediately? As for renewing Alston's contract, the Wizards have not considered it.

The management only saw the shortcomings of Alston's low shooting percentage, but ignored his advantages of being skilled in dribbling and passing first. The shooting percentage of 37.6% is very low, but the "Street Ball King" shot 37.1% from three-point range, and 60% of his shots were from outside the three-point line.

Barkley commented: "I think Arenas is a master of chaos. If the Wizards arrange tactics for him, it is possible to play well. It is definitely impossible to trade him for Alston."

"Yes, but that's not my tactic. Arenas's advantages are his physical strength and shooting. He has the qualities to become a super scorer. As long as he takes enough shots and can average 30 points per game, the Wizards can consider it. He is the core of the offense, but he doesn’t provide too many assists, so it’s difficult to drive the whole team.”

Smith said: "The Warriors had a good lineup last season, but rarely won. Do you think it has something to do with Arenas?"

"If he has the right partner, he can win, but the Wizards' current lineup is not suitable for him. It is not easy to distribute the ball rights between him and Stoudemire, Maggette, and Boozer. With last season's The legacy I left behind is that the Wizards can reach the playoffs, up to the second round. Arenas will definitely be selected as an All-Star in the future, but he is not good at team basketball and is more suitable for a weak team to produce luxurious statistics. If As a coach, I will only let him be the sixth man, responsible for leading the bench to score points."

Yang Rui pretended to be a magic stick and predicted Arenas' future.

He has never been a good team player. In Yang Rui's previous life, he participated in the Dream Team training and was waived at the last moment. In 2008, Coach K would rather bring along veteran Kidd, who had much poorer offensive ability. Kidd is very team-oriented, will distribute the ball reasonably, does not occupy the ball, and can help the team to cooperate well.

In Yang Rui's previous life, a group of fake fans called Arenas a super giant because he averaged 29.3 points and 28.4 points per game in two seasons. In fact, Stackhouse also posted such data, and it was nothing more than the privilege of taking shots. , the hit rate is not high.

All Arenas' honors are that he made the All-NBA Second Team once, the Third Team twice, and was a substitute in the All-Star Game three times. He was not as good as Joe Johnson.

Who has seen a superstar who has never been selected to the first team and whose team performance has never exceeded 50 wins in a single season? This name is too worthless.

Arenas performed even worse in the playoffs. He only made it to the second round once. That year, his average field goal percentage was 37.6%, 23.4% three-point shooting, 23.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 6.2 assists, and 3.9 assists. Mistakes.

He was a first-round catcher in the other two playoff games, one of which was swept.

This is an achievement achieved in the years when the Eastern Conference was the weakest. James could reach the finals on a single core.

In the second half, the Nets were in complete control of the situation, and the point difference became wider and wider.

Yang Rui continued to comment happily on the players, and bluntly said that the Wizards were not good because the team lacked organizers.

He also used football matches as an example. "In football matches, many people think that as long as there are good forwards, a lot of goals can be scored. In fact, the person responsible for organizing the midfield is also critical. There must be someone who can pass the ball accurately to deliver cannonballs to the teammates. Last season, Michael won the finals MVP is definitely not what some people on the Internet maliciously slandered. The referee takes care of him and his teammates help with statistics. He is an indispensable person for the team."

Of course, Yang Rui is not all the players of the Black Wizards. He and Barkley did not spare any efforts to praise Stoudemire and Boozer.

The two have similar views. The Wizards' greatest advantage is these two young insiders. Whether it is a frontal screen or a side pick-and-roll, the defender should find space and pass the ball to them to ensure offensive efficiency.

Boozer can hit the mid-range shot and rely on his strength to hit hard in the low post; although Stoudemire is close to the mid-range shot, he can dunk when he rushes forward, making it difficult for opponents to stop him. Unfortunately, the opportunity was delayed as soon as the ball got to Arenas.

No matter how many shots a person with a 40% hit rate takes and scores, it's just a higher shot in exchange for data. It's better to leave it to someone with a 50% hit rate. Stoudemire and Boozer both have 20+ abilities.

As a point guard, Arenas likes mid-to-long-range pull-up jumpers. He is not very fast and has average breakthrough ability. His characteristics do not match the two insiders.

The Wizards' counterattack is not as sharp as last season. Hamilton, Alston, Wesley, and Jordan can all pass the ball quickly, which is relatively accurate. This season, three players are suddenly missing. Wesley is not suitable to start with Arenas. There will be loopholes on the defensive end, and Arenas has to defend the No. 2 position.

While watching the game, Yang Rui picked out all the Wizards' problems and concluded: "The Wizards' lineup this season is no longer reasonable. If they want to defend their title, they must make a big deal."

The words are clear. As long as other team management listens to Yang Rui's evaluation, who will trade with the Wizards and "assist" them?

Moreover, the Wizards do not have suitable bargaining chips. If they want to trade in the mid-term, they can only trade for potential insiders. In exchange, the organizer cannot be a point guard. If a star point guard comes and overlaps with Arenas, his playing time will be reduced. Then, as Yang Rui said, Arenas will only be suitable as a substitute.

Abel Paulin watched the game from the sidelines, transfixed.

He thought that without Yang Rui and Jordan, the Wizards' strength would not be much worse, but now he found that he didn't understand basketball at all, and he personally destroyed the Wizards' future.

Yang Rui and Barkley laughed at Arenas for not being suitable for the Wizards. They slapped Pauline in the face with one slap on the left and the other on the face. In the summer, he said that the team wanted the best manager, which became a big joke.

Former Knicks manager Ernie Grunfield became the new manager of the Wizards, and he did not sign any strong players for the team in the summer. Unseld, who hired Arenas, has announced his resignation and left the place where he has worked for 35 years.

In fact, Unseld was dismissed as a scapegoat. Unlike Yang Rui, he was not as reckless as Yang Rui. Before leaving, he said: "I will always be a member of this place. I have been and will be in the future."

The reason why he did this was just to avoid falling out with the boss and get his pension from the Wizards for a long time.

In the final quarter, the Nets players cooperated very well under Kidd's organization, taking turns to take shots, and blossoming more.

The Wizards' possession of the ball was obviously not enough, and there was a disconnect between the inside and outside. Arenas destroyed the team's chemical reaction, and Wesley was completely different from last season, sleepwalking throughout the game.

This is not Eddie Jordan's fault for arranging tactics, but Wesley's career was complete after winning the championship. He relaxed. He didn't practice much in the summer and his condition declined seriously.

In the last four minutes, the game entered garbage time, and the Nets sent in all substitutes.

Yang Rui smiled and said: "My magic weapon for winning last season was Jordan's organization and the cooperation between Hamilton and the inside screen. I didn't expect that just one summer later, the Wizards had lost all these things. I can only say that the management It’s really cool.”

Barkley said: "I think if the Wizards don't bring in a point guard who is good at pick-and-rolls to partner with Stoudemire and Boozer, they'd better leave."

Barkley is right. If Stoudemire and Boozer don't play pick-and-rolls and don't have point guards to cooperate, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Stoudemire's performance with Marbury was not as good as that of Nash; Boozer reached his peak in Sloan's pick-and-roll system.

In the end, 84 to 102, the Wizards lost by 18 points at home and got off to a bad start.
