Almighty Coach

Before the start of the NBA regular season, each team will play a warm-up game, which is the NBA preseason.

After the end of each season, each team has considerable changes in the lineup, and some teams will also change coaches, in order to let the teams run in the lineup, familiarize themselves with the team ’s play, and determine the new season of each team. The lineup of the game can also improve the communication between the players and coaches, so before each season begins, the NBA will hold a pre-season game, so that they can enter the long regular season game in a relatively good state.

Under normal circumstances, the preseason game will last two weeks, in these two weeks, the team will play about eight games. In recent years, in order to expand overseas influence, enhance the NBA's internationalization process, and cater to the tastes of overseas fans, the NBA will send teams to play preseason overseas. In addition, overseas teams will be invited to the United States to participate in the NBA. Preseason.

This year's Los Angeles Clippers, was selected by the NBA to play preseason overseas, and the destination is China. After all, the Clippers appearing are owned by Dingtian Group and sent to play preseason in China. It is also a matter of course.

The Clippers' opponent is the Dallas Lone Ranger. This season, the Lone Ranger has given a Chinese player a training contract, which means that this Chinese player can represent the Lone Ranger in the preseason. The NBA official will naturally not give up this good opportunity to cater to Chinese fans, so he arranges the Lone Ranger to play pre-season games in China.

Coming to China to play in the preseason is a good opportunity for the NBA to expand overseas. Both the league and the team are good, but for the players, it is inevitable that they will get tired. After leaping half the earth from the United States and coming to China, after the jet lag, I have to go to two cities to play games, and at the same time, I have to cooperate with a series of team publicity and fan meeting activities, and individual players have to participate in sponsor activities. Under the circumstances, the schedule is full, there is no talk about the effect of warming up.

Li Dai also had the right to take the team to travel to China. As for the preseason, it was played as an exhibition game.

The Clippers are called the "old and sick and handicapped shelter", but the "old and sick and handicapped" in the team are all real star players, they are still very important in the hearts of fans, so as long as they stand on the field again , You can easily harvest the cheers of fans. There will even be fans spontaneously shouting "MVP" to cheer them on.

By the time the Clippers returned to the United States, the preseason schedule had already passed halfway through, and after the jet lag, they resumed training. The Clippers played two preseason games in the United States, and the NBA preseason time was over.

For the Clippers, this is obviously a loss. The other teams have played eight preseason games, the new line-up and the new tactics have already achieved preliminary results, and the Clippers players have flew around the earth and could n’t find it at all. The state of the game.

...

Assistant coach Kassel came to Li Dai with a form.

"Coach, from the preseason statistics, Wood's performance is the best. It seems that he has recovered the skills of 70% or 80% at the peak. Then as the game progresses, he should be able to get back to the state, as long as he no longer If you are injured, you may be able to return to the level of the regular season MVP. "

"Hall's situation is much worse than that of Wood. After all, he hasn't played for a long time. His speed and explosiveness are recovering. The most important thing is the feel. You know, although Hall can make a three-point shot, he can His best scoring method is the emergency stop jumper. Now Hall, although the shooting percentage in training is very good, but in the game, when facing the opponent's defensive pressure, his emergency stop jumper just hit 30% This is an unsatisfactory stat. It needs to be recovered slowly. I think Hall needs more time to find the game rhythm again. "

"The worst situation is Raymond. In fact, he is in the same situation as Hall. Although his body has recovered, he has not recovered the state of the game. Raymond left the field for so long and wanted to regain his physical and mental tension. It will take some time. And he is a superstar after all, so in a few preseason games, opponents will give him more defensive pressure, and his shooting percentage is also the lowest. "

"Gray's condition is recovering very well. He is indeed an excellent big man, but his problem is that there are too many fouls. After all, he only played more than 100 NBA games and can only be regarded as a sophomore in experience. Rookie, lack of experience makes him easy to lose in the game. If he ca n’t control the number of fouls, he will leave six fouls in less than 30 minutes. We really do n’t have much help in this regard. Any An inexperienced inside big man always has to experience foul trouble to grow up. This is the tuition he must pay. "

"Fortunately, when we were inside, there was Carabi, Gray was troubled by fouls. Fortunately, Carabi supported our penalty zone defense. From the performance of the preseason, Carabi did not want to be a 35-year-old veteran. , I think his current state is not worse than when he took the block king. "

"In addition, Kumar's performance really brightened my eyes. In the previous summer league, he showed good strength and adaptability to the NBA. In the preseason, he was a team other than Wood. The second scoring point, he has begun to adapt to the NBA game rhythm. "

Kassel briefly reported on the player's performance in the preseason. Among them, Osef could not play in the last two months due to drug treatment. As for Noel, he had to wait until January next year to get the six-month medical report, so he did not play in the preseason.

Just listen to Kassel and then say: "Coach, the regular season is about to start, and we have only simply practiced a few tactical cooperation, and we have not yet made it clear what we should use next season. Tactics. "

"Our tactic is very simple, that is to give the ball to someone." Li Dai said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Kassel asked, puzzled.

"Isn't this a common tactic in the NBA? Give someone the ball ..." Li Dai pulled a long note.

"And then?" Kassel asked.

"Then? There is no more." Li Dai shook his head. "Someone will naturally score the ball. Lakers, Cavaliers, these teams that used to have superstars, don't they do this often?"

"Hehe ..." Kassel laughed, his expression obviously asking: Are you telling a joke?

Li Dai continued: "The NBA tactics have been constantly developing, many coaches have their own tactical system, and the tactical system is the least I am good at. Some simple tactical cooperation, we can also learn now Now, and those complicated tactical systems can't be learned by looking at the video. If we play tactics, we are far worse than other teams! "

"So you let the players play singles?" Kassel shook his head. "I don't agree with this, I don't know the tactical system, but that's not the reason you gave up using it."

Li Dai then explained: "You know, my best is physical training. I can let an athlete play his highest strength on the field. And our team is very special, we have gathered a group All-Star……"

"It was an All-Star," Kassel corrected.

"Well, if I can get them back, we have a group of All-Stars. Do you think it is necessary for us to teach a group of All-Stars? How do we play?" Li Dai didn't wait for Kassel to answer, then said: " They can become star players and become the core of a team, which not only means that they have excellent skills, but also that they have extraordinary reading skills for the game. They have the ability to lead a team and win. "

"That doesn't mean we don't need to arrange tactics." Kassel said with a shake of his head.

"Of course we need tactics, but we can't do it. We build a complex tactical system like the Spurs, and then let the players perform well. We only need some simple and effective tactical cooperation to increase the players. Tacit understanding, and then give more options to the players. Because they were once the leader of a team, they also know better than me, how to lead a team to victory. "Li Dai replied.

Kassel showed an incredible expression: "Your consciousness is to let the players decide how to play? What do we coaches do? Sit on the sidelines to watch the play?"

"We can give guidance and suggestions, as well as some personnel adjustments, but when we really arrive on the court, we should trust the players. Because they are all star players, they have enough experience in the game, and they know when to What to do, and the game is always changing. The on-the-spot judgments made by players based on their experience are sometimes better than the choice of our coach. "Li Dai explained.

"I still can't agree with your ideas. We are coaches, we should provide players with a tactical system, this is what we should do." Kassel showed a stubborn expression.

Li Dai shook his head helplessly: "Well, please tell me, what kind of tactics should we arrange for the players? The complex coordination of the Spurs? The five deaths of the Warriors? The magic ball of the Rockets? I said These are very popular in the league, but they also require a very deep tactical understanding. At least my level does not have this kind of understanding. Do you have such a deep tactical understanding? Can you let our players like the Spurs, the ball passes each Would you put your own hands in the basket? Can you make our players like the Warriors ~ www.readwn.com ~ After a quick ball transfer, you can get into a very difficult three-pointer? Or you can let us The players like the Rockets only score outside the penalty area and the three-point line? Or, do you have the ability to create a new and more powerful tactical system? "

Kassel was speechless when asked by Li Dai. If he really had that ability, he would not stay with the Clippers as an assistant coach.

"So, it's not that we don't want to design systematic tactics for our players, but we are not capable of doing so? We are not the so-called 'tactical masters'. There is only one type of play we can use." Li Dai extended One finger, then said: "We can only count on the player's personal ability is strong enough, we can only play 'star ball'!"

After hearing Li Dai's words, Kassel wanted to refute it, but could not start.

Li Dai then said: "What's so strange about expecting star players to succeed? At the beginning, a single superstar ruled the field. Later, a superstar on the inside and outside became the standard for the team to win, and then to the" big three "to win the championship. Mode, and today's Warriors are the so-called 'Big Four'. Why can't we form a 'Big Five', 'Six Giant' or 'Seven Giant'? Other teams are at most starting five tiger All-Stars, and I I think we have to be all-star even for the bench! We do n’t have any tactics, we just rely on stars to play, we just play 'star balls'! "
