Chapter 50 Joint Practice

Paul Pierce, the star of the Celtics, was not very happy at the beginning of the 2003-04 season. Although the team failed to achieve the expected results in the Eastern Conference semifinals last season, even if the Celtics put aside history

With the honor bonus, last season could be considered as the Eastern Conference was always strong.

And his long-time comrade-in-arms, Antoine Walker, was publicly executed for almost nothing in the draft in full view of the public. Danny Ainge used the No. 6 pick and his All-Star brother to only exchange

A rookie and two future draft picks coming?

Are the Celtics starting to be in trouble and need to rebuild? Pierce's immediate reaction after learning the news.

It's no wonder Pierce thinks so. The reason is simple, no one will take the initiative to dismantle the core in exchange for draft picks when the record is good.

In the next few days, the Celtics' management did not make any big moves, and Pierce instantly felt offended:

You just exchanged such a huge pile of gold for Luo Li?

As a result, today, Pierce was in a worse mood. He learned from the staff that on the first day of the new player named Li Luo joining the team, Auerbach, who rarely participated in team affairs, actually went to the entrance of the venue to greet him in person.

he.

It's not that Pierce is jealous, but everyone will inevitably have thoughts when encountering this kind of thing. At least now, he does feel a little sour in his heart.

This is a treatment that I have never enjoyed...

Li Luo did not expect that Auerbach's emphasis on him would become a small burden. The direct result of this incident was that Pierce united with several people to prepare to teach Li Luo a small lesson.

But don't worry, the Celtics have always been known for their rigorous style of play, and they would never dare to do things like injuring Li Luo due to underhanded people, but if they cause trouble on the court and make the newcomers embarrassed, remember the rules.

, this group of old golf hooligans are very good at it.

Head coach Jim O'Brien blew the whistle, and the Celtics' training ended an hour early this morning. The coach took advantage of everyone gathered around to introduce the new Celtics members who joined the team today -

---Li Luo.

Luo Li greeted everyone with a smile, and most of them fist bumped and shook hands. Although Pierce and the others had formulated a plan to punish Luo Li, they still did not lose their place in these scenes.

In the afternoon, Li Luo directly participated in the team's five-v-five confrontation training under Auerbach's instructions, because Auerbach understood that Li Luo's advantages lay in his developed golf intelligence and excellent manual skills, and he could adapt to the needs of his teammates as soon as possible.

characteristics, you can exert your immediate combat effectiveness as early as possible.

This arrangement was just what Pierce and others wanted. They quietly exchanged glances and said, hey, the opportunity has come. This time we must beat this Chinese boy until he cries for his father and mother on the court.

This time, Coach Jim gave Li Luo a few tactics before the game and asked him to take note of them. He would need to practice them in the afternoon. Li Luo took a few glances and said, hey, are you looking down on me? Just these tactics still need an afternoon session.

time.

Li Luo was assigned to the starting lineup from the beginning this time. After Walker, who averaged 20.1 points per game, left the team, everyone on the team except Pierce scored in double figures.

Looking at the meaning of this grouping, Li Luo will replace Walker as the team's starter from the beginning?

This made several players feel even more sour. Why should you have the biggest piece of cake when you come here? Rookies should look like rookies.

At the beginning of the training match, Tony Delk passed the frontcourt and handed the ball to Pierce to sort out the offense. In fact, this is also a common practice adopted by most teams.

Stars dominate a large amount of the ball, and the team will select role players based on the characteristics of the stars to build the team. (James must be surrounded by shooters, preferably 3D players with defense, so that the breakthrough effect is best. Howard brings his own defense.

The system, coupled with a bunch of three-point teams that have poor defense and excellent offense, can take advantage of it.)

The team's starting lineup began to move around Pierce's offensive point. Pierce was dueling with the team's backup small forward Eric Williams.

Pierce's offense is very unique. He is not known for his speed, so he doesn't have many famous offensive scenes in singles.

However, he plays very smart and is very good at taking advantage of his rhythm difference. Many times you watch him dribbling the ball for a long time, and accidentally he is caught with an opportunity to break into a position, and then the defensive player can only watch him take action.

.

This offense is a typical example. Pierce lowered his arms to dribble. The basketball kept passing through Pierce's legs. The dribbling rhythm was fast and slow, which greatly tested the patience of the defensive players.

Finally, after a test to the right, Williams slowed down a beat, and when his body adjusted, he immediately wanted to go to Pierce's right hand to defend.

This is a scam.

But this time Pierce was completely fake. He pulled the ball under his crotch with his right hand, kicked off the ground with his right foot, and immediately pushed the ball forward with his left hand.

Williams' ball was passed cleanly!

Pierce's character is not as ostentatious as the other former Gemini. After passing Williams, facing the empty penalty area, he just jumped up slightly and shot the ball in a very stretched way.

.

Li Luo on the side couldn't help but sigh that this kind of action was indeed Pierce's signature. It wasn't that he couldn't do it, but in the video he never felt as comfortable as Pierce.

"Hey! Lee, it's your turn to attack next time!" Pierce's words were obviously a little malicious, because as the power forward on the tactical board, there was no one-on-one challenge today.

Similarly, Coach Jim's face was slightly startled by Pierce's words, and then he understood something. He nodded to Luo Li to indicate that it was okay.

Auerbach saw everything clearly from the sidelines, and things were interesting.

Thinking of this, the old man leisurely took out a cigar from his inner pocket and watched all this with interest.

Stop it? It doesn’t exist. Today you gave the order to help Luo Li, but tomorrow Pierce asks you to help him? Who will he listen to when he is on the court?

If these problems are not solved, the blow to a team can be said to be fatal. Usually, I have the ability to suppress the players' whims, but once it comes to life and death, these things will turn into bombs. After all, sometimes who is the leader of this team?

The leader of the team may be more important to some players than winning.

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and this starting position is not something that can be secured easily. Furthermore, the team also needs this kind of healthy competition, and the old man is counting on Li Luo, a catfish, to stir up the water in the pond.

.

Let's make a fuss, let's make a fuss, let's make a big fuss.

Once the players can distinguish the third, sixth and ninth grades based on their own strength, the team will straighten out. As long as you are there, nothing can go wrong.

Besides, Luo Li is not someone to be trifled with.
