This Forward is Not Serious

Vol 2 Chapter 460: You know how to play ball!

Lin Ying's attack in the frontcourt went wide.

The rebound was won by Green, and the Warriors quickly launched a defensive counterattack.

Lin Ying chased hard, blocked shots with his right and left hands alternately in the air, and missed Curry's layup.

A block that made Curry feel desperate.

But after landing, Lin Ying took a breath.

His physical fitness had already begun to have problems ahead of time.

He played like James in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals last season. .

In the first half, he tried his best to help the team maintain the point difference, and in the second half, he had to exert his strength in advance.

Even a physical monster can't stand such a toss.

And he's not out yet.

Because as long as he hits, the Warriors can immediately let the Nets see what "yong three crazy" is.

Lin Ying gritted his teeth and finished the third quarter, but after the third quarter, the Warriors had already widened the point difference to 8 points.

The Warriors equaled a 13-point win over the Nets in this quarter.

This had a great impact on the Nets fans at the scene.

Because the past two seasons, the third quarter has been "Brooklyn time."

But as Brin said in the commentary, Brooklyn's "bell" seems to be broken tonight.

And the shock isn't over yet.

In the fourth quarter, Lin Ying was forced to play again after a short rest, and his efficiency inevitably declined.

After the four quarters of fierce battle, the Warriors turned back and defeated the Nets 122-108.

The Nets' opener, lost.

Lin Ying scored 52 points in the game, but it turned into an empty cut in the end.

After the game, the fans were hotly debated.

The discussion points mainly focus on two points.

First, the Nets still have the strength to win the championship.

The second is what level of team the Warriors are.

These two points can actually be summarized as one point, because the two teams play against each other, and they are both reference points for each other.

If the Nets haven't declined as badly, the Warriors are strong.

On the other hand, the Nets have suffered a serious decline.

In addition, Lin Ying scored 50+ and lost in this game. In addition, the Nets struggled to defend their title last year. This is not a simple "one-game theory" that is inaccurate.

At the end of the discussion, the second voice, that is, the argument that the "Nets" team has suffered a serious decline in strength, prevailed.

Because after all, not many people are willing to believe that the Warriors have become a championship contending team with no change in the lineup and only one head coach.

After drawing this conclusion, the Nets suffered from external pressure from public opinion.

...

The day after the opener ended, the Nets were the same.

For a team that has completed two consecutive championships, the outcome of a game will not have much impact on them.

McMillan is leading the training, and the core part of training is still helping the veterans find their form.

For the current Nets, the status of the role players is online, Lin Ying is not a problem, the problem is the veterans such as Deron and Johnson.

Don't ask them to return to the top, as long as they can recover to 80% or even 70% of their original strength, the Nets have a great chance of completing the dynasty.

Karl and Tyron Lue discuss Jokic's use in the coaching office at the Barclays Center.

After Kerr was poached by the Warriors, the Nets also poached Tyronn Lue from the Clippers with a four-year, $6.5 million contract.

Lue's salary is the same as McMillan's, which means the Nets have two first assistants at the same time this season.

"I think so."

Karl and Lu talked about putting Jokic on the activation list for the next game, and Lu agreed.

And, he didn't just agree.

"I think it's possible to reduce the playing time of the veterans and increase the time of the young players, such as Nikola, I think it is not impossible to put in the rotation."

This idea of ​​Lu is still very radical, and even Carl was shocked.

Lu quickly also gave the reason why he said so.

"In the last game, we can see that the veterans lack fighting spirit, which is understandable. We are a team with two consecutive championships, just like a long-married couple, lacking passion, so we need to create some stimulation and threats to them. ."

Lu's words made Carl ponder.

He thought for a while, and finally said to Lu with a smile:

"You kid knows how to play ball!"

Carl is 64 years old and has a straightforward personality, while Lu is 37 years old.

And Lu's plan is really in line with his heart, and Jokic's passion and accurate judgment on the sidelines in the opening game really infected him.

He decided to give it a try along this line of thinking.

...

The daily practice of the Nets is over.

Deron went to the infirmary for treatment as usual, and Johnson also went to the locker room to make ice compresses for himself.

Lin Ying also stayed to practice as usual.

But this time he had a "caddie" by his side.

Jokic only returned to practice after confirming Bradley had left.

Well, same as last time.

Bradley probably didn't expect Jokic, who made an appointment with him to go to the gym early tomorrow morning to train, would come to this trick.

This is the world of involution.

However, this time Jokic not only served as a caddie for Lin Ying, but also conducted three-point training during Lin Ying's break.

And, it's already done a little.

Lin Ying was drinking water on the sidelines watching Jokic make a three-pointer, and there was a long-lost envy in his eyes.

The talent of "Pork Belly" is really good.

It's only been so long, and this guy's three-pointer has already looked the same.

Unconventional players, you can't understand him in a conventional way.

"Nikola, why are you suddenly serious?"

After watching for a while, Lin Ying couldn't help but ask.

Jokic's talent is very good, but for one thing, he is not the same as Lin Ying Butler.

He doesn't like extra practice, he feels a bit like Howard.

This guy prefers to play "happy" basketball.

"I want to be able to play early, it's not a good feeling to sit on the sidelines."

Jokic is real.

And what he added later made Lin Ying laugh,

"And can only sit on the ground."

"It's your weight that determines when you play."

Lin Ying replied with a smile.

Let Lin Ying know that Jokic and he are not the same kind of people, that is Jokic's weight loss.

He thought Jokic was his big fan, and he called Pittman again. This guy should be able to lose weight soon.

Including what Vulcan Dean told him on the phone before.

But it turns out that losing weight is really not that easy for Jokic.

In addition to not loving hard training, there is also that he should belong to the easy fat physique.

"So before I can play, I must practice my three-pointers."

Jokic said with a smile.

Lin Ying also smiled after hearing this.

Don't think too much about things you can't do, and think about things as good as possible.

This is probably why Jokic is happy every day.

Just then, the training hall came.

It's Lou.

"Deron told me you should be here."

Lou opened his mouth when he came in.

"I'm here to find Nikolai."

Lu followed and said to Lin again,

"Of course, Lin doesn't have to evade."

Lin Ying nodded after hearing this.

He appeared to be smiling, a slight smile.

But in fact he was a little smirking.

I haven't been in contact with Lu for a long time, so the emoji "You know the ball well, boy" will always pop up in his mind unconsciously.

Emoji, the source of all evil!

What Lu and Jokic said were serious things.

Lin Ying was stunned after hearing this.

Jokic will be on the activation list for the next game?

What is this called?

You must know that Jokic is still a long way from the weight the coaching staff requires him.

Of course, this may be the so-called "talent to do whatever you want".

Lin Ying is not creating some sea smell here, but is really feeling emotional.

Jokic is different from him. He was played by Ncaa and is not low in the draft.

But Jokic is a low-profile player overseas, and it was unexpected that he could be selected in the first round.

Then he entered the active list after only one dnp game, and the weight did not meet the requirements of the coaching staff.

If that doesn't count as talent, then no one really does.

"However, entering the activation list does not mean that you will be able to play. You have to be patient."

Lu encouraged Jokic.

Lu, is very good at getting along with people!

Jokic nodded, being able to enter the activation list means having a chance to play, which is better than being able to score a "triple-double" off the court.

"come on."

After Lu left, Lin Ying patted Jokic on the shoulder and said.

Although he is transmigrating, he really doesn't have a good eye for what Jokic will be like.

Jokic entered the NBA after losing a season of fat in Europe. He had a good rookie season, playing 80 games and starting 55 games, averaging 21.7 minutes per game and scoring 10 with a 51.2% shooting rate. The performance of 7 points, 2.4 assists and 1 steal, and the three-point shooting rate is also 33%.

But none of these are references, because now all the external conditions are different.

So he is also looking forward to what Jokic's debut will look like.

...

Two days later, the Nets host the Pacers at home.

The Pacers have been a bit horrific this season.

First, Stephenson rejected the team's five-year, $44 million contract extension and instead signed a three-year, $27 million contract with the Hornets.

They lost their starting shooting guard all at once.

Immediately after that, fans talked about the "George Broken Leg" incident over the summer.

And the age of David West has also come to 34 years old. For most of the insiders, this is the age of decline.

So it took the Pacers just one summer to go from a championship contender to a fringe playoff team.

This is a good opportunity for Jokic to debut.

Especially now that he has made some three-pointers, if he faces Hibbert, the picture will be very interesting.

However, the game was much more intense than expected.

Karl did give young players more minutes, but the Nets' problems proved not to be solved so easily.

Because just like you can't expect minimum-salary guys to hit big shots every night.

Although that key ball opportunity is indeed good, he is a minimum salary player after all.

Likewise, you can't expect younger players to play better in bigger roles all at once.

There will be a process in between.

And on the Pacers side, George Hill is in hot form.

Don't mistake Seth for Curry, and don't mistake Hill for George!

The game remained suspenseful, and it was only at the decisive moment of the fourth quarter that the winner was decided.

Well, Jokic didn't get a chance to play.

The only difference from the last game, Jokic did not wear a suit, but wore a training uniform and waved a towel on the sidelines for the entire game.

This time he didn't sweat much, and he didn't need to take a shower.

Fortunately, Jokic is always the optimistic person. After the game, he helped Lin Ying pick up the ball and practice three-pointers.

Then, after the Nets played 6 games in the season, Jokic didn't get a chance to play.

The good news, though, is that Lu's strategy is working.

The constantly compressed playing time really made the veterans feel the crisis. They played harder than before, and their performance also recovered.

The Nets' record of 4 wins and 2 losses can be regarded as a bit of a shock to the dynasty team.

But at this time, the most attention was not the Nets, but the Warriors who played the opener with them.

After the Warriors beat the Nets in the opening game, they started the season with a 6-game winning streak! Ranked first in the league!

Another closely watched Cavaliers team is also going through a run-in period, and like the Nets, it only has a record of 4 wins and 2 losses.

So this result can be said to have impacted the fans.

Most of the fans guessed wrong before.

It's not that the Nets are getting weaker, it's that the Warriors really changed coaches and became a championship contender!

Although there are still some fans who believe that the Warriors just started well~www.readwn.com~ There are many teams in history that start at the top of the rankings and finally fall.

But more people still see the difference in the Warriors.

Kerr's space basketball, Curry's off-ball ability, and the Warriors' "Death Five" have all transformed the Warriors.

Even though the Warriors' performance now has fired Mark Jackson out in the commentary, he feels Kerr "stealed" his fruit.

But fans who have watched the opener should feel deeply, this thing is like a chemical reaction equation.

Even the difference in the catalyst will make the chemical reaction between substances produce different chemical reaction results.

Kerr and his Warriors are taking the league by storm.

...

The Nets' opponent in Game 7 was the Cavaliers.

The difference in personality between Tatum and Stern is also reflected in the schedule.

If it's Stern, it's definitely a good show and it's not too late, and the first confrontation between the two teams will be arranged in the Christmas battle.

However, Tatum was afraid of the eagerness of fans to wait. After giving enough warm-up games, he let the two teams fight at the beginning of the season.

After all, in the same East, the two teams have to play against each other three times a season.

He didn't schedule the two teams to play in April, and those three games were big dramas.

You can't say that this arrangement is not good, because he did mobilize the fans' emotions early.

This game is at the home of the Cavaliers.

On the plane to Cleveland, Lu found Jokic again.

This time he brought Jokic good news with a smile on his face.

Jokic will definitely get a chance to play against the Cavaliers!
