Healing Basketball

   Chapter 540 540. The happiness of men

   After Liu Xiu said that he wanted to learn high post play, Payton would think about it whenever he was free in the offseason, and he would think about it, go to the training ground many times to practice training and adjust the details.

   As a result, in two days, people have learned almost...

  Happy is definitely very happy, the stronger the warden is, the more rings his gloves will have the opportunity to wear.

   But also healed!

  The three-day rest period passed by in a flash. Liu Xiu lamented that the time was not enough, the training time during the off-season was not enough, and the preparation time during the season was not enough.

   After a bit of pain in the egg, he changed his way of thinking about the problem. He always felt that there was not enough time, which meant that there was still room for improvement.

   Right as this is a good thing!

   On October 24th, the Blazers ushered in the preseason game with the Timberwolves at home.

   The last game was slaughtered by 50 points. Although the Timberwolves were still half-dead against other teams, when they played against the Blazers again, they played hard.

   They are all big men, who can stand such humiliation?

   The Blazers have already felt it, and it is hard to say how strong they are. Anyway, the defense in the rotation stage is a beep!

   Payton participated in the construction of the team's defensive system, and he was in good tune with the coach. From the player's point of view, he made up for the lack of coaching's experience.

   The defense is fierce, and the counterattack is strong.

   The Timberwolves struggled so badly and desperately wanted to roll over, but the more they struggled, the more excited the Blazers got to play.

   Relying on the defensive counterattack, the Trail Blazers beat the Timberwolves 95-81.

  …

   The next day after playing the Timberwolves, Liu Xiu came to the arena.

   The time for the team to gather for training was two o'clock in the afternoon, but Liu Xiu called to the arena for a meeting.

Liu Xiu rushed into the conference room with a 100-meter sprint to press the whistle, and saw that in addition to the coaching staff, there were also six teammates including Payton, Ray Allen, Outlaws, McDyess, Mourning, and Blake. There is a meeting.

   Several other people, Liu Xiu, could understand. When she saw Blake, Liu Xiu asked in surprise: "Steve, are you still on our team? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I thought you were fired."

  Rao has a stable personality like Blake, and he can't stand Liu Xiu's wave of healing. He roared, "I've been playing against you in team training games!"

   Liu Xiu looked confused: "Really? Forgot, I only remember that we never played together in the game."

  Blake's fingernails were about to sink into the conference table, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm your substitute, and I didn't have many opportunities to play together!"

  The coaches and teammates felt that Blake was so miserable!

  Blake's maturity and stability can be seen by everyone. Only Ray Allen and McDyess in the team can compare with him.

   So, this new teammate was targeted by the warden!

   The warden makes fun of Blake with different flowers, and he doesn't bring heavy patterns every day, and the warden's mouth, after getting familiar with Blake, he can always find the point of Blake's irritability all at once...

Seeing that Blake was going to go wild, he was afraid that the coach he was looking for would interrupt the conversation between him and Liu Xiu, and said, "OK, everyone is here, let's start the meeting, the warden is not late, Kevin, today You pay for the coffee."

  Liu Xiu's attention was diverted: "Coach, it's not appropriate for you to gamble with your players, right?"

   The coach replied: "We didn't take you as a team member, we take you as a brother!"

  Liu Xiu: "…"

   It was rare to see Liu Xiu deflated, everyone laughed, and even Ray Allen raised the corners of his mouth.

   After a while, in a good atmosphere, the meeting started.

   The data from last night's game against the Timberwolves was projected on the screen.

   Liu Xiu saw his data, played 27 minutes, made 6 of 11 shots, plus 6 of 6 free throws, scored 18 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 steals.

   Huo Tu analyzed everyone's performance, whether he was there or not.

When analyzing Liu Xiu, Huo Tu said: "The warden has fully absorbed the experience of the previous 5 games. The key points we emphasized in the previous two training days in the past, the warden has also caught it very well, and the personal offensive line The choice of the team has a better echo with the follow-up of teammates…”

  Huo Tuo analyzed everyone's performance and said: "We have made obvious progress in the defensive counterattack, but we can't be blindly confident. We played so well in counterattack last night, which has something to do with the Timberwolves.

We have a great defensive lineup for sure, and we also have good counter-attack potential. Warden and Momonga are both very good at pushing and counter-attacking, but our overall counter-attack ability needs to be improved. Now it's Warden and Momonga. In driving the whole team, our goal in terms of defensive counterattacks is to be like the Suns, the players who hold the ball to advance the counterattack and the cooperating players can help the opponent, rather than relying on one or two people to push the whole team to counterattack…”

After Huo Tu just finished speaking, the coach took over the words: "Yes, our ideal goal is to counterattack like the Suns, but we are not a pure defensive counterattack team, it's just a part of our tactical system, everyone. Don't stress too much…”

   Next, the coaching staff analyzed the cooperation of other lineups and styles of play.

   Liu Xiu found that there are not many places for players like them to speak, but the coaches are talking.

He simply came to a conclusion - the coaching staff called them to a meeting today to tell them that the team regards them as the team's 'brain' and needs them to be the ones who assist the coaching staff to build the team system Group of people.

   After the meeting, the players went back to their homes and gathered at 2:00 in the afternoon. When Liu Xiu was about to leave, he was stopped by the vice president and came to the coach's office for a small meeting.

  The coach said straight to the point: "Warden, I think you should have noticed that the slow progress of our new system is due to the unreasonable lineup structure, right?"

   Vice President: Is it so direct? Shouldn't we be paving the way?

Liu Xiu nodded: "I know, when I saw our 15-man roster, I guessed that our new season would be affected by the structure of the lineup. I thought we would have a trade, but I didn't expect that the regular season would be coming soon. It has started, and no transactions have been generated yet, and we have exposed problems in this regard in the past few days.”

   After listening to Liu Xiu's words, the vice president and the coaching staff looked at John Nash, who said helplessly: "This is what the boss means. When he wants to issue the championship ring, everyone will be there."

  For this reason, Liu Xiu actually felt that there was nothing wrong with it!

  Lynch Hunter, who has won two championships and played hard without complaint. Although he is 35 years old, he is still quite popular in the free market. It is only because of injuries that he has not signed a new team for the time being.

  George Lynch has retired. Although Van Horn just turned 30 two days ago, he won the championship and completely lost his thoughts about professional basketball. He chose to retire and go home to open a golf course.

  Derrick Anderson, after being pardoned, joined the Lakers with a minimum salary and went to enjoy the joy of the big city.

  Liu Xiu heard that their original opponent for the opening game of the Blazers was the Nuggets, but in order to let the 15-man championship lineup last season get the ring together, he asked David Stern to readjust the schedule.

  Liu Xiu feels that the credibility is quite high. First of all, this matter is irrelevant, and the winning lineup can accept the championship ring together. Since the NBA has a free market and allows players to transfer freely, it has not appeared again.

   The vice president said: "Jess, we came to you today to tell you that our lineup may change..."

The    coach grabbed the conversation: "It's not that it's not, it's definitely, warden, we hope that if there is a deal, I hope you don't get angry, I know you care about these teammates."

   Unlike the vice president, Liu Xiu replied, "I understand, but I also have teammates I don't want to lose."

   Vice President said immediately: "Of course, we will give priority to your opinions and make decisions based on your opinions."

  Liu Xiu nodded and said, "There can be no less people in Rose Bay. Lei wants to play with me and come here. I don't want to see him become a bargaining chip."

The vice president was about to respond, and the coach said first: "Of course, you, the butcher and the madman are the stars we cultivated ourselves, and we are not for sale. We are breaking the previous system now, the purpose is to let Lei better integrate. , and the next changes are also aimed at this.”

   Liu Xiu rolled his eyes: "Morris, you are more like those despicable management than Kevin."

   Coach: "Thank you for the compliment, but I'm still asking those despicable management to give me a raise..."

  …

   In this communication with the management, Liu Xiu found that their coaching staff and management are more professional.

  Especially the coach, who manages well and manages well, there is nothing wrong with it. Cardinals and Shenshouzi have already drawn out the promotion route, and Zen Master, Da Van Gundy and others will follow such a route in the future.

   After you become professional, you will have more leeway when making commitments.

   However, the human touch of the team is still there, mainly the human touch of the boss and the vice president. For the 15-player championship team to present the championship ring together, after signing Mourning, there is no trade for such a long time...

   This kind of happiness is indeed what men will pursue.

   Not to mention, after learning that the big dog has such an arrangement, Liu Xiu is looking forward to the opening game even more.

  The time came to the afternoon, at 1:58, Liu Xiu stepped on the spot and entered the training ground, and the system prompt came!

"The preseason of the 2005-2006 season is about to usher in the final battle. The first overall performance evaluation of the NBA players this season has been completed, and the player detection report has been updated. The follow-up will be adjusted according to the comprehensive performance of each player over a period of time... "

I'm coming! finally come!

   Liu Xiu opened the player interface of his own team.

   Player detection reports for teammates have been updated!

"Peyton 76, offense 71, defense 80... The decline is a bit too much, and it has something to do with role positioning. Last season, he was the starting point guard, the team's assists leader, and the main point of organization. Now he needs to compete with Blake for playing time, just The advantage comes when experience and stability are needed…”
