Bishop of the Devil
Chapter 570 Harrington is letting off steam
It stands to reason that Iguodala, who was so good in his rookie season, will definitely have great achievements in the future and become a super giant in the league...
But in fact, although Iguodala has developed well, he has won many championships, won FMVP, made the defensive first and second teams, and made the All-Star.
But it seems that the league's status is a little bit meaningless. When it comes to the league's top small forward, no one can think of Iguodala's name.
Richard was also quite confused about this matter, and finally concluded two possible reasons.
The first one is that Iguodala's lower limit is high, but his upper limit is not high enough. But this reason was directly overturned after Richard looked at Iguodala's attributes...
Iguodala's ultimate attributes are quite strong, even slightly better than Pierce.
That can only be the second reason. This guy is not aggressive enough.
This is a guy who has been resting on his laurels...
Having talent and being able to fulfill it are completely different things.
If you want to fully realize your talent, you must first have luck.
If you are unlucky, just like Rose Rose in the Windy City, with various injuries, this will definitely not work...
And Iguodala is actually very lucky in this regard. He has never suffered any serious injuries and has a relatively high attendance rate in his career.
Secondly, you must be enterprising and have a heart to constantly improve yourself.
Richard feels that there may be something wrong with Iguodala in this regard.
Players like Kobe, Jordan and James are all highly motivated, and it is not an accident that they can achieve that status.
Needless to say, Kobe's aggressiveness is known to the entire universe as the sun shines at four o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles.
James didn't have a basket at the beginning of his career, and he made up for it through training.
As for Jordan, he has not been resting on his laurels. He also developed the most embarrassing three-point ability in the early stages of his career.
As for Iguodala, careful fans can find that it seems that after so many years of playing, his level is no different from his rookie level. Even in his peak period, there is actually no improvement, but because he has more playing time and more shot rights. Just make the data look better.
What Richard is thinking about now is how to stimulate Iguodala's aggressiveness. Not to mention becoming a super giant, but it must be improved than normal.
…
The opponent is Jordan's old club, the Washington Wizards.
The referee blew the whistle to start the game, and Milicic and Kwame Brown stepped to the free throw line and executed a jump ball.
Some fans laughed at the scene. This jump ball was interesting. Two well-known parallel importers were competing for a jump ball. I don’t know who was better.
As a result, Kwame Brown proved to be more watery, losing to Milicic on the jump ball.
Payton holds the ball and slowly advances towards the frontcourt. As a veteran, he knows exactly what kind of game rhythm is beneficial to him.
At his age, if he is like those young people who, after getting the ball, rush towards the frontcourt like a calf, then he probably won't be able to play on the court for too long.
Richard nodded. With an experienced veteran like Payton on the field, he didn't have to worry about the rhythm of the game at all.
Once there is a problem with the rhythm, Payton, the old engine, will automatically use his error correction ability to get the team's rhythm back on track.
The Pirates generals were already in position in the frontcourt, and Milicic was a little nervous.
You must know that in tonight's game, Richard not only fulfilled his promise to start him, but also said before the game that he would focus on the inside tonight.
Mainly playing inside, when Varejao has little offensive ability, it is Milicic who shoulders the team's offensive burden.
Such an arduous task made Milicic feel stressed and out of breath.
"You can do it! Darko!"
"The coach has given you too many opportunities and given you treatment that far exceeds your performance. If you cannot seize this opportunity, you will never be a star in your life."
Milicic secretly encouraged himself.
Payton pretended to break through, attracting the attention of Arenas, who was facing him.
The contract Arenas originally signed with the Pistons was for four years...
Starting out as a second-round pick, Arenas was actually able to get a four-year rookie contract with the Pistons, which made many second-round picks envious.
But after three years of fighting, no one envied Arenas...
Because Arenas is strong enough to sign a larger contract, he will basically be working for nothing in the next year.
However, Arenas' career has taken a turn for the better. The Wizards acquired Arenas from the Pistons through a trade and directly put him in the starting point guard position...
It is estimated that Arenas will be able to sign a decent contract when this year's contract ends. Of course, it is also possible that Arenas will renew his contract with the Wizards in advance before the season is over.
…
Generally, the players selected by Richard are grateful to Richard, but there are always exceptions.
Such as Ricky Davis, such as Arenas...
Arenas is not grateful to Richard, and is even a little resentful. In his opinion, if Richard hadn't deceived him into signing a four-year contract, he would have signed a big contract by now.
His idea is not wrong, after all, because of his contract, the league introduced the Arenas Clause.
Of course, he would not dare to express this kind of resentment no matter what. He knew the West Lafayette gang very well. If he dared to express a trace of resentment towards Richard, I am afraid his end would be quite miserable. …
…
Payton's fake pass passed the ball directly to Milicic outside the paint area.
After receiving the ball, Milicic took a direct mid-range shot.
Fortunately, the goal was scored directly, and Milicic's tense mood immediately relaxed a lot.
What he fears most is that his teammates gave him a chance, but he failed to grasp it.
"Good job, kid."
"No wonder the coach has never been willing to give up on you. Come on..."
Al Harrington now plays for the Wizards, and he was responsible for facing Milicic just now.
At this moment, he smiled and patted Milicic on the shoulder and praised him.
"It's really strange. The coach took the wrong medicine."
"Is this kid really that strong? Is he worthy of making the coach look down on him and begging me to let him go?"
Although he praised Milicic so much, Harrington was extremely confused in his heart.
Before the game started, I received a call from Richard...
On the phone, Richard asked Harrington to take care of Milicic and praise Milicic when he performed well.
Although he didn't explicitly say that he wanted to give Milicic a break, how could Harrington not hear what Richard meant.
This is certainly not a difficult task, after all, it is just a preseason game.
Not to mention the preseason, it's not a big deal if they let things go in the regular season, as long as it's not the playoffs.
…
"Thank you..." Milicic felt a little embarrassed after being praised by Harrington.
Originally, he wanted to chat with Harrington, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say.
This is a common problem with communication difficulties. You know clearly what you should say to show your kindness, but you just can't say it.
"Work hard and don't let down the coach's expectations of you!"
"We all think highly of you, young man!"
Harrington continued laughing.
These words made Milicic even more excited. Who else was Harrington talking about among us besides the big guys in the West Lafayette gang?
Are you actually favored by these big guys?
For a moment, Milicic found a glimmer of confidence. He felt that he might not be as bad as he thought.
…
It was the Wizards' turn to attack. Antoine Jamison from the outside shot a three-pointer from the outside and scored steadily.
This is Jamison's first season with the Wizards. Last season he briefly played for the Mavericks for a season, and he had been playing for the Warriors before.
As a West Lafayette player, although Jamison has always had very impressive statistics, he has never been selected as an All-Star.
Now that he has the opportunity to rebuild the Wizards, he holds great hopes, not only thinking about making it to the All-Stars this year, but also thinking about getting a taste of the playoffs.
Speaking of the Wizards' trident lineup this year, the offensive firepower is actually quite good.
Arenas, Jamison and Harrington all have strong offensive firepower. Although Kwame Brown is a bit watery inside, he is also an average inside player.
Such a lineup, placed in the Eastern Conference, actually has a good chance of making the playoffs.
