It's normal to rotate lineups frequently in preseason, and almost all teams do.

The purpose of this is to hone in the team's lineup and make the teammates more cohesive with each other in order to cope with the upcoming regular season.

But it is still rare to have such an exaggerated large rotation of starters as Wang Xiao.

No one understands the reason why Wang Xiao did this, so it is natural to understand that Wang Xiao is putting on a show.

"Wang Xiao seems to want to show his tactical ability, but it doesn't seem to be going well, the current 5 preseason games, the Wizards have lost 4 games, I think compared to looking for a new partner in the existing lineup, Wang Xiao might as well play the strength of the starting lineup, according to the performance of these players last year, although there are fewer Haywood and Miller and others, but should also be able to achieve good results in the regular season."

In many people's opinions, Wang Xiao's approach is not advisable.

After all, although basketball is a five-player sport, and the NBA has always emphasized teamwork, the role of stars is really much more effective than that of excellent role players in many cases.

No matter how much Wang Xiao tosses, he can't compare with the lineup of the Heat Big Three.

While people are talking about the Wizards' frequent rotation changes in the preseason, a new topic quickly catches their attention.

The main topic of conversation is still Wang Xiao, and this happened at the press conference after the Wizards' last preseason game.

"Coach Wang Xiao, the Wizards only won two games in the preseason of the new season, which has a lot to do with the fact that you keep changing the starting lineup in the game and frequently making large-scale rotations, so will the continuous failure affect the Wizards' regular season record?"

A reporter asked.

"Do preseason wins and losses count toward the regular season record?" Wang Xiao asked.

The reporter was slightly stunned, then shook his head, "No." ”

"Then it doesn't matter." Wang Xiao smiled.

Reporter: "......"

Fools know this, but is it really good to say it so blatantly? Even if it's a pre-season, it's a normal ticketed game, so you have to ensure a professional attitude on the field, so as not to disappoint the fans who are there!

"But is it really good for the team to change the starting lineup so often? What are your expectations for the team in the upcoming season? Can the team continue to be as competitive as last season? ”

Another reporter asked.

"I think that's good, external competitiveness, first of all, from the competition within the team, only if the players have a sense of urgency, they will train harder, and they will never miss any opportunity on the field, because in my team, whoever performs well will be eligible to play." Wang Xiao said flatly: "In addition, for the expectations of the new season, the Wizards' goal for the new season is to have the first record and ...... regular season."

First in the regular season?

Almost all reporters were shocked by Wang Xiao's words.

After so many years in the industry, this is probably the first time these journalists have heard such arrogant words.

Before the new season started, some people actually began to book the first place in the regular season!

You know, the 30 teams in the league are as strong as a cloud, especially this year, how can it be so easy to win the first place in the league?

Regardless of the Lakers and Spurs in the West, or the East, they are entrenched in a behemoth.

Obviously, many reporters also thought about this question, so someone immediately raised their hands to ask questions.

"The Miami Heat's Big Three are gearing up to write their legacy this season, and their goal is to finish the regular season and then win the championship in the Finals, do you think your Wizards have a chance of winning against the Heat?"

Is the Big Three of the Heat......

The corners of Wang Xiao's mouth hooked slightly.

"I haven't heard of any of the Heat Big Three, as far as I know, there's only one Big Three in the league, in the Celtics, and as for the three guys in Miami, let's wait until they join forces to lift an O'Brien Trophy, now I don't think they're going to be my team's opponents."

As soon as Wang Xiao said this, the press conference fell into a short silence, and the reporters looked at Wang Xiao dumbfounded, as if they didn't expect him to say this.

Reporters have asked questions like this more than once or twice when interviewing other teams.

Even if he led the team to win two consecutive championships and hit the Lakers head coach Phil for three consecutive championships. Jackson, who led the Spurs to four championships, was Greg. Popovich and others, when talking about the Heat's Big Three, will use the phrase "incredible." "Shocking." It is a phrase that says it will be a tough challenge for them to play against the Heat in the future, and they will try to win the game......

Like Wang Xiao, he has no scruples and directly scolds him before he has ever heard of the Heat Big Three, thinking that the Heat team is not the opponent of his own team, and it is the first time!

The reporters were going crazy, they raised their hands frantically, wanting to ask Wang Xiao questions.

The reporter who was pointed by Wang Xiao stood up excitedly and asked, "Why do you say that?" Don't you think James + Wade + Bosh is the most powerful Big Three in history? ”

"In terms of lineup, this combination may be the strongest in history, but do you really believe that they can work together perfectly?" Wang Xiao smiled: "You know, whether it is James or Wade, they are both superstars in their prime, who do you think of the two of them should be Jordan and who wants to be Pippen?" And Bosh, as the probably least famous of the Big Three, how should he position himself in the team? ”

The truth Wang Xiao said couldn't be simpler, and it really happened to the Heat team.

But when the Big Three were first built, many people ignored this, they just thought that such a strong alliance for the first time in history would definitely sweep the whole league and be invincible.

However, the fact is that due to problems in the distribution of the Big Three, coupled with the team's lack of run-in, they only won 58 wins in the regular season, ranking second in the East and third in the league.

In the playoffs, although the Heat made it all the way to the Finals, they lost to Nowitzki's Dallas Mavericks.

Is the Heat strong? Of course strong, whether it is James or Wade, as long as one person breaks out, it is the kind that can't be stopped no matter what.

But this team is not to the point of being invincible.

……

As soon as Wang Xiao's remarks at the preseason press conference were issued, they immediately caused a huge response, and a large number of remarks about Wang Xiao's inability to do so and his lack of knowledge were overwhelming.

And Wang Xiao didn't care about this, and even he was so happy.

The more voices like this, the higher the Heat will be praised, and the higher the Heat will be praised, and the harder it will fall when it falls from the sky!
