Chapter 42 - [Help Ewing to brush data]

On the 12th, while the media were touting the Knicks, the Bulls lost again.

   They lost to the Wizards 83 to 90 at home, Jordan only made 10 of 28 shots, added 28 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. With the exception of him and center Lang Li, no one in the Bulls has scored in double figures.

  Since the start of the game, the Bulls 4 wins and 4 losses, even if it is called “the basketball god”, Jordan can not play this season.

   has the league’s first salary, the league’s biggest star, defending champions and other titles, the Bulls have become the target, many people think they are finished.

   Salary burst table, record garbage, Howe does not exaggerate that the Bulls have laid an unbreakable foundation for the league’s lockout next summer.

  These were all expected by Yang Rui. What he didn’t expect was that the Bulls’ bad record directly affected the Knicks. The management has assigned a new task to the coaching staff. On the premise of ensuring the regular season record, try to help Ewing to brush the data and increase his playing time.

   This is contrary to Yang Rui’s original idea. In his previous life, Ewing suffered a serious injury and almost reimbursed for the season. It is too risky to increase the playing time. However, the management requested this, and he and Van Gundy could not violate it.

  Yang Rui realized that it was not enough to be the head coach, and he had to talk to the team to do the math. Otherwise, everyone would continue to have differences in the work, and the correct ideas might not be adopted.

   In Yang Rui’s previous life, every time Phil Jackson left the Lakers, it was a disagreement with the management on the team building idea.

  The Lakers won’t struggle with Jackson’s salary requirements, but they always have concerns about the right to speak. Jackson hopes to be like Manchester United’s Ferguson in basketball affairs. He has the final say about the Lakers, while Vice President Jim Bass and General Manager Kupchak can only stand by.

   This made Jackson’s conflict with Jim Bass public when he left the Lakers for the second time, causing a lot of trouble. The transfer of power at the top of the team is what ultimately caused Jackson to leave the Lakers.

  Ewing didn’t care about the data before the game, because he thought that fighting for MVP was a luxury. Now that the Bulls are having problems, he sees hope again.

   So, Ewing and his agent put pressure on the management together, hoping that the coaching staff can help him compete for the regular season MVP.

  It’s not surprising that Ewing has an idea. This buddy is really tragic. It perfectly interprets what it means to be born out of time.

   In 1994, he averaged 24.5 points, 11.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 2.7 blocks. He was ranked fifth in the MVP selection that year, and finally did not enter the best lineup, because the other three centers have better data.

   In 1995, he had 23.9 points, 11 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 0.9 steals and 2 blocks. MVP ranked fourth and was not selected for the best lineup.

   No one can understand Ewing’s feelings, because no NBA superstar has been so miserable.

   There is a superstar in the team, the senses are completely different, it will attract fans more, so the management also hopes that Ewing can have a strong personal honor.

  On the 12th, the Knicks flew to Toronto, Canada against the Raptors. Van Gundy discussed with Yang Rui on the plane to help Ewing to brush the data. He planned to start from this.

   “I plan to increase Patrick’s playing time. Is there any way you can save him from playing 40 minutes and get an average of 25+10?” Van Gundy frowned and sighed.

   Last season, Ewing played 37 minutes, 22.4 points and 10.7 rebounds, scoring efficiency is not very good.

  Ewing’s physical fitness can’t be compared with that when he was young. Van Gundy couldn’t think of a way to get him 25 points. Unless he played more than 40 minutes, it would affect the team’s offense and could not guarantee the record. At this time, he could only choose to believe in his assistant, and Yang Ruilai would create a miracle.

  Yang Rui smiled: “It’s too difficult to brush an average of 25 points per game, and it’s also easy to get injured. I don’t recommend this. If you brush something else, I have a way.”

  Vandi asked: “What do you brush?”

   “assistance, this will not affect the team’s offense, after playing well can also lead to the team, after the screen, Patrick is responsible for the pass organization, like Divac played.” Yang Rui answered.

   “What?” Van Gundy stayed awake, and Ewing has never focused on organizing offense since entering the league.

Yang Rui shrugged and smiled: “This is really the easiest data to brush. Teammates can’t shoot. What they reduce is the teammate’s shooting rate. It has no effect on Patrick. He has more passes, the opponent It is even harder to figure out what he will do next. After the screen is misplaced, he will also score relatively easily in the face of a jumper from outside. If he can get 20+10+5, it is not worse than 25+10+2.”

   “But… wouldn’t he go inside?”

“Don’t be so, brushing up assists, high-court response, not going inside, this can also reduce his chances of injury. You let him a 35-year-old veteran to play for a long time, but also to fight muscles, are you afraid of accidents? Injury, we will be bad in the playoffs.” Yang Rui sighed.

  Fan Gandy closed his eyes, thought for a minute, and found himself persuaded again.

  He couldn’t think of a better idea, and he was afraid of Ewing being injured. Yang Rui said the idea.

   This season, Ewing played very selflessly, playing only 30 minutes, averaging 18.1 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists, which is more efficient than before. This is based on Ewing giving his teammates a ball-free cover, UU reading www.uukanshu.com teammates after attracting the defense and passing back his misplaced attack.

  If you let Ewing heads up, you will go back to the old way. Lewis, Houston, and Starks are not easy to play.

  It’s hard to get 25 points because of heads-up. In Yang Rui’s previous life, Ewing was in very good form this season, averaging 32.6 minutes per game in 26 regular season games, averaging 20.8 points, 10.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 2.2 blocks. His shooting percentage was 50.4%. Unfortunately, he quickly suffered a serious injury…

  With the general direction, the rest is easy to handle.

  Vandi asked: “How exactly?”

   Yang Rui thought about it in the afternoon. “It’s very simple. Patrick continued to cover the side and went to the inside to run to the middle. Alan ran as usual to catch the ball or pass to Patrick. Charlie had originally waited for the opportunity in the middle and now runs to the left corner. Can play another ball-free screen with Patrick to open the space. Larry and Bruce are on the right side, Larry adds a cut from the right to the basket, Patrick can be singles in the middle, the main pass is to find Alan, Charlie, La There are three points here, and everybody gets his pass and shoots.”

  Van Gandi thought about it for a while, it was a little more troublesome than the original tactics, and increased the running position of two people. The players should understand the tactics after practicing several times.

   “OK. Is there any?”

“You can consider giving Chucky a chance to come off the bench. His defense is really not good, but his shooting is excellent, the speed is fast and the threat of pick-and-roll is greater, especially when the opponent’s center is slow, he and Patrick will become a stranger.” Yang Ruixiao Dao: “Since you want to brush the data, then strengthen the offense, solid defense will reduce the number of rounds, the data is difficult to brush beautiful.”

  Fan Gandi pondered for another minute, unable to pick out the fault, and decided to accept it in its entirety.
