The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

After thinking twice, Wang Xiao still called Butler to the office.

"Caron, for the next game, I hope you can play as a substitute."

Wang Xiao got straight to the point and stated his purpose directly.

"On the one hand, this decision is to let you further strengthen the firepower on the bench, and on the other hand, it is to strengthen the defensive ability of the starting lineup. After all, we cannot expect Carter and Lewis to feel bad every game."

Originally, Wang Xiao thought that Butler would complain about such an arrangement, but he didn't expect that after hearing Wang Xiao's words, Butler would not reveal any dissatisfaction.

"Okay, coach."

Butler's submissive performance made Wang Xiao a little stunned for a while.

His attitude towards himself in the locker room system has just changed from neutral to good value, and it is far from reaching the point where he is almost obedient to himself like Curry.

Now that he has sent him to the bench, he is not dissatisfied at all?

This situation surprised Wang Xiao.

But Wang Xiao didn't understand Butler's thoughts.

In his 8-year career from joining the NBA to the present, Butler has only played in the playoffs 4 times including this season, and in the 4 playoffs, the best result is to score twice. Eastern second round.

The first time was in the Miami Heat in the 03-04 season. The team was eliminated by the Pacers 2:4.

The second time, this season, the current team is temporarily tied with the Magic 2:2.

As a professional player, Butler is also eager to get some honor.

The championship is too far away and too extravagant for him.

But now, he is only one step away from the Eastern Conference Finals.

Regardless of whether he can successfully win and enter the finals after qualifying for the Eastern Conference Finals, at least participating in the Eastern Conference Finals can be regarded as a major improvement in his career!

In order to win, Butler doesn't care about making some sacrifices, as long as those sacrifices are meaningful.

Wang Xiao's coaching ability is obvious to all this season.

To be able to lead a team whose half of the players are rookies to the second place in the Eastern Conference, and even in the absence of main scoring points in the playoffs, they can still fight to a 2-2 tie with last year's Eastern Conference champion Magic. It is definitely not something that ordinary coaches can do!

Butler believes that since Wang Xiao thinks that he can help the team better on the bench, it must be reasonable.

So he didn't have any dissatisfaction.

...

Wang Xiao couldn't figure out why Butler didn't reject playing as a substitute at all, and even wondered if this guy was hiding a knife in his smile, but he was not angry on the surface.

Full of doubts, he even went to the locker room to observe Butler's good value, and was surprised to find that Butler's attitude towards him not only did not decrease because he was told to play as a substitute, but also slightly increased.

"It's really inexplicable."

The question of not having the same relationship, Wang Xiao simply put it aside.

The important thing right now is to win the series, not to wonder why Butler is so convinced by his arrangement.

After officially announcing the starting list for the next game to the players, the team began intense pre-match training.

Beverly, who was ordered in danger, must adapt to the starting position as soon as possible, and at the same time complement Harden Green to form a solid line of defense.

While the players were training, Wang Xiao discovered a new surprise.

The reward pool of the quiz function of the lottery module of the system has been updated.

"Reward items: advanced props "Eye of Insight", winning conditions, betting on the fifth game of the Magic series, the minimum betting limit is 2000 points of victory."

"Advanced Props "Eye of Insight" function introduction: This prop can only be used within 10 minutes before the start of the game. After using it, you can clearly see the status of all participating players on the field. The game will not feel particularly good, but the Magic player Carter is in a hot state, and the shooting percentage in this game will be extremely high, so it needs to be specially arranged for targeted defense. One-time props, the function is limited to one game."

Good stuff, this is definitely good stuff!

The state of a player is a very metaphysical thing. No one can know the state of a player in advance, including the player himself.

As strong as Kobe James, there are also performances like sleepwalking in the audience when they are in poor condition, and some players who can only sit on the bench and play as substitutes on weekdays also have a feeling of bursting and rivaling the All-Stars.

Although the things are good things, the high price makes Wang Xiao hesitate.

With 2000 victory points as a bet, it seems like a big bet.

Even if the system is upgraded to version 3.0, 2000 victory points need to be won in 10 games to earn.

In case of losing this game, not only will they not be able to get advanced items, but the 2000 victory points will also be lost.

In the game against the Magic, Wang Xiao was really unsure. After all, the Wizards had been at a disadvantage so far. Even if they won two games at the opponent's home court, luck was part of it.

What if Carter or Lewis feel overwhelmed in this game, how can they shoot, how can they shoot, and what should they do if they completely blow up the team's perimeter? Wouldn't he want to lose his wife and lose his army?

...

Wang Xiao now seriously doubts whether the system released the quiz based on his own status, because his wealth just passed 2000 points.

But after thinking about it, he decided to give it a go.

Give it a go and turn your bike into a motorcycle.

This courage is still needed!

The 2,000 victory points were finally pushed into the bonus pool by him, and the fifth game between the Wizards and the Magic officially started on May 12.

Battle of Tianwang Mountain!

In the case of a 2:2 tie with a big score, this game will determine who can grab the match point!

When the starting rosters of the two teams were announced and the players played, Van Gundy didn't know how to describe it.

The Wizards have changed again!

The series lasted 5 games. Except for the first game where Curry was injured, in the remaining four games, the Wizards' starting lineup was never the same!

This time, Wang Xiao lined up the starting lineup of Beverly, Harden, Green, Jamison and Haywood again! Caron Butler, the All-Star, was placed on the bench.

Wang Xiao's change of formation not only surprised Van Gundy, but also the commentator of the game.

"We saw that the starting lineup of the Wizards has been adjusted compared with the previous game. Butler was sent to the bench, and Beverly was put on the starting lineup. Does Wang Xiao want to strengthen the defensive ability of the perimeter?"

"Indeed, judging from the wins of the Wizards in the first two games, the main failure of the Magic is that they cannot open up the outside line. Once the Magic's outside shooters do nothing, Howard alone will be difficult to support."

"However, the effect of such a transformation has to be verified through the competition!"
