Chapter 83: Who cares?
At 6 p.m., the tired Knicks lost again to the Minnesota Timberwolves on the road.
Two consecutive defeats.
"Coach...... I can do it!! I really can't run, coach......" Tim Hardaway Jr. collapsed on the ground with a sad face.
He thought it was over...... Besides, don't blame him! He just has an extra mouth.
Tim Hardaway Jr. looked at the sky speechlessly, 100 sets of switchbacks! There is no stopping ......
The old fish glanced at little Tim, he knew he couldn't be blamed for this, but... That's not a reason to go out and have fun as soon as you get back to New York, right?
You're happy that your team has lost two in a row, aren't you? Need to call two? One can't use you?
He was angry now when he remembered the two papers on his desk.
One of them is a trade request from Anji, and the other is a photo taken by a reporter.
If it weren't for the fact that the shares of this newspaper were intercepted and disposed of in advance, once this matter broke out, the impact would be very great.
The roof leak happened to rain overnight.
Lao Yu frowned, Anji's heart to trade Xu Xuan has never died, but Lao Yu also knows that the old Zen master has not agreed for a long time because he now has a new idea.
CalderΓ³n is injured again and his primary target is not a striker, but a playmaker with immediate playmaking.
That's a big deal!
Xu Xuan performed well, but only performed well!
It's a pity that he doesn't need potential now, he needs combat power!
Because the biggest problem in front of him is to make the playoffs!
On this basis, everything can be sacrificed!
As for the future......
who careοΌ
"Come here, I have something to announce." Lao Yu clapped his hands, and the players put down the ball in their hands and surrounded them.
"Help... Save... I ...... "Tim Hardaway Jr. grabbed Cole Aldridge's trouser legs: "For the sake of... For the sake of us who used to carry guns together......"
"Smack!"
Aldridge went up with an expressionless face and kicked away, "Get out, who has carried the gun with you?" You're an embroidery needle! β
Tim Hardaway Jr.: "......"
Why? We are brothers!
"You don't call us when you go out to play? Calling two more? Should! β
Cole Aldridge caught up with Samuel after kicking Tim Hardaway Jr., and the two talked in a whisper.
Xu Xuan is absolutely down, are you because of this?
What a talent!
"Alright, let's get down to business." Lao Yu stood in the center, first summed it up, and then talked about the team's record: "The current team record is 6 wins and 7 losses, and I think this record should not meet our expectations." β
"But I don't blame you, I'm happy with your concentration on the pitch and I've seen your performance."
"But... That's not a reason to lose! I'm telling you very clearly that if you want to make the playoffs, you can't do that! β
"The playoffs are a process of accumulation, how can you win without accumulation?"
Lao Yu's voice became stern: "I have only one request below, play every game well!" β
"Tell me, can you do it?"
"Yes!!"
"Alright, let's go to training, Tim, stop lying on the ground and pretend to be dead, get up, practice your shooting!"
Looking at the people who scattered again, Lao Yu sighed, he can handle it on the player's side, but what about the old Zen master's side?
What a headache!
"Drake, Xu Xuan seems to have grown taller?" Lambis came over with a strange look with a data sheet, and the old fish took it and looked at him suspiciously: "190?" He's 190 years old? β
"Almost..."Lambis shrugged, "He's only 19 years old, so he's developing very quickly......"
"......" Lao Yu nodded, he found a little clue when he played the Timberwolves in the last game, because Morris Williams, the 185-year-tall point guard opposite, was short in front of Xu Xuan......
"Derek, I heard that other teams are also making offers to Xu Xuan......" Just as the old fish was pondering, Lambis threw out a bombshell again.......
"What?" Lao Yu looked at him in surprise: "How do you know?" β
"I just heard it when I passed by Phil's door......" Lambis spread his hands, "I was going to ask him about other things, to be honest, I didn't want to listen to the corner, I was forced to ......"
"Which team?"
"Cleveland Cavaliers!!"
Old Fish: "......"
Cleveland Cavaliers?
Don't they have Owen?
Yes, they want Xu Xuan to go over and play as a substitute...... But do the Cavaliers still have chips in their hands?
Under such a big salary pressure, in addition to the big three, there are only two or three big cats and small cats in the team, what do they offer?
Scold! Phil is not a fool!
Lao Yu thought to himself, if the Boston Celtics' chips can still be exciting, he really can't see any excitement on the Cavaliers' side except for the Big Three.
"This kid is now fragrant!" Lao Yu looked at Xu Xuan's position, Xu Xuan was fighting with melons, and everyone else on the sidelines was watching the excitement.
He seems to have a good relationship with everyone on the team?
Lao Yu thought, there are so many people in the team, but he is the only one who can get along with melons so well.
Affinity? Carmelo likes him very much?
"I can't go! If he's gone, Phil will regret it later......" The old fish muttered to himself.
......
Xu Xuan has never won a bullfight with melons... Every time he was abused to death, he was still happy to do it.
"If you haven't been abused, where does your growth come from?"
Isn't the thrill of playing basketball just abusing vegetables and being abused?
Of course, the most important thing is that playing against such a top star will speed up the development of Xu Xuan's physical talents.
Isn't honest leveling bad?
Of course not!
Lao Tzu has three times the experience pill, don't you mean I want to watch it expire?
"Coach, I have something to ask you." After the regular training was over, Xu Xuan did not rush to leave, but came to the side of the old fish.
"Well, you say." Although the old fish was strange, he still nodded.
This seems to be the first time he has taken the initiative to find me?
Xu Xuan touched his head and said embarrassedly: "Coach, I want you to teach me how to play a good defender." β
β......β
That's a big problem!
Lao Yu thought cautiously for a while: "Why don't you sit down and talk slowly?" β
The two sat on the floor.
Everyone else ran away, and there was some quiet in the arena now.
The old fish looked at Xu Xuan, and Xu Xuan also looked at the old fish.
In later generations, Lao Yu's reputation was not good, especially during his time as a head coach, he coached 136 games in two seasons, and only won 40 games in the end...... The win rate is less than 30%.
But Xu Xuan felt that this was not his pot...... It's no wonder that there is an emperor on his head, and his record is good!
The old fish spoke, and he asked a question:
"Xu, what do you think is the best defender?"
