In the second half of the second quarter, Lian Feng sat helplessly on the bench.

What makes Lian Feng a little depressed is that Adelman gave a very reasonable reason for this: On the one hand, you need to preserve your strength and energy to deal with the playoffs. After all, there are a group of rookies on the court, and you cannot count on them.

Playing in the playoffs. On the other hand, your weight is not suitable for such high-intensity games now.

Of course, Lian Feng knew the main reason was that he still didn't want him to get hurt.

It's understandable, but Lian Feng hasn't felt any signs of injury yet.

But that’s fine too.

Now my physical strength is very good. Although due to the increase in weight, if the total physical strength remains unchanged, it will definitely not last as long as when it was 98 kilograms before, but it is not a problem if I am about to play for 48 minutes.

However, it is actually unreasonable to play every game for more than 40 minutes, especially in the regular season. Whether a rational star or a rational coach, they will try their best to ensure victory.

First, reduce the playing time of the star players, so as to ensure that the stars are not injured and the team is always competitive.

In this way, his playing time will be normal.

At this time, Beverley replaced Curry, Holiday replaced him, and Yin Baka also came up to replace David West.

Four rookies on the court.

Only third-year player Gasol is a veteran.

With such a lineup, even Lian Feng thought it was a bit awesome.

Fortunately, the head coaches of both sides seemed to have a tacit understanding. Seeing the Hornets put on a full substitute lineup, the Cavaliers quickly put James and other stars down to rest.

James sat on the sidelines. He drank a large gulp of water and looked at the scoreboard.

Under the leadership of Lian Feng, the Hornets have gained an 11-point advantage, and the score at this time is 34 to 23.

This score is not a terrible number. However, the main players need to take a good rest. Especially...

James glanced at O'Neal nonchalantly.

Sweat continued to flow from O'Neal's forehead.

Well... the shark is really old.

But what's worse is that the Hornets are very restrained by the current version of the Sharks. Because the Hornets' outside ability is too strong, and what is outrageous is that their center does not stay at the basket honestly, but likes to run.

Go to high ground and take cover...

Originally there was no problem with this, but traditional centers would choose to roll down after the pick-and-roll, but the Hornets' center can pull outside to shoot a three-pointer, or shoot a mid-range shot.

Therefore, if the shark does not want to miss people, it must keep going back and forth between high and low positions.

It can even be described as exhausted.

However, as long as the Shark went to the high post, Gasol would not attack at all, allowing the Shark to move in vain. Therefore, the Shark did not last for many rounds, and the Shark failed.

I have to say that this is really an effective tactic to restrain the behemoth inside.

James is thinking that as a player with a good basketball intelligence, he can see more.

Obviously, the Hornets' tactical concept is very advanced.

Of course, the more critical issue is... Shaq is really too old. He is no longer able to maintain his athletic ability in such an intense game. James is wondering whether it is a good idea to use Shaq as a reinforcement option this season.

The right thing to do.

However, the current situation is not bad. The Hornets lost too many players at once, and the substitute players are basically rookies. Those rookies have not even heard of their names.

As long as their substitutes don't let the Hornets widen the gap during this period, they will still have a chance to win in the second half.

James looked at Lian Feng, the emotions in his eyes becoming more and more complicated.

Really an incredible guy.

Not only is James looking forward to the Hornets' bench being beaten by the Cavaliers' bench, but others on the Cavaliers are also looking forward to it.

Smith saw the Hornets put up a lineup with four rookies, and he burst into joy: "To be honest, the Hornets did this, and they didn't take the Cavaliers seriously. This is provoking the Cavaliers..."

Barkley smiled and said: "There is no doubt that I think the Hornets have the strength and confidence to do this!"

Beverley went on the court.

The cheers of the fans came from all directions. In such an environment, he could not even hear the conversations of his teammates. This place... is much bigger than the European secondary leagues he has been in. The noisy environment over and over again

It stimulated his nerves, and he became a little excited, feeling that adrenaline was gushing throughout his body.

Beverley looked towards the bench, where Lian Feng was watching silently. And the head coach... For Beverley, this is precious playing time.

The game continues!

Beverley started the attack with the ball. Perhaps he was too excited. He was too focused on controlling the ball and made a mistake when he passed the first ball.

The Cavaliers seized the opportunity to counterattack and scored a layup.

James smiled slightly, this rookie looked like he could be broken through.

With this mistake, Beverley became even more nervous, followed by the second and third mistakes... He became more and more anxious, and then he moved too much in defense and was called for a foul.

A meaningless foul.

Adelman frowned and looked at Lian Feng: "It seems...Beverley hasn't adapted to the NBA yet."

Lian Feng's expression was calm. At this time, Beverley was not the hyena he would become later. As a rookie, it is normal for such mistakes to occur on the court. But obviously, many teams will give up because of Beverley's performance.

he.

But Lian Feng knows that without enough experience, he will never grow up.

Smiling slightly, Lian Feng said: "Not everyone is born to be a superstar, but I think we can give Beverly more opportunities."

Gradually, Beverley found a feeling on the court. Although he was not excellent, he was finally able to play decently.

It's just that... the fans didn't seem to buy it, and some people started to speak fondly of Beverley.

On the defensive end, his hard work was ignored by everyone.

After the second quarter, Beverley was substituted. He covered his head and looked frustrated.

0 points, 2 assists, 1 steal, 3 fouls, and 5 turnovers, this is the answer he handed in. He knew that he messed up.

Beverly looked at Adelman, feeling more and more uneasy. Maybe... he will be hidden after this game? Damn it... Why don't I calm down, why do I rush as soon as I get the ball? Why...

But no amount of whys can make up for the mistakes just made.

Maybe Lian Feng is also very disappointed in me?

At this moment, Beverly saw Lian Feng looking at him.

But Beverly didn't dare to face Lian Feng's gaze.

However, Lian Feng smiled and said: "I appreciate your contribution on the defensive end. Keep working hard. The team needs you to grow up as soon as possible."

Um?

There was light in Beverly's eyes again.
