Chapter 274: Cole Returns! (2/3)

......

The regular season is in full swing.

Maybe even the players didn't notice. At this time, the regular season is almost over.

With a 46-6 record, the Warriors are the best in the league!

You win the second place~ because the team that gets the first win rate in the league is an existence that you can't surpass~

The other teams could only watch the Warriors stare dryly at this time. Because the Warriors are really too strong this season.

And on this day, the news about the Warriors in the media directly swiped the screen.

Because their head coach Cole has returned!

And made it clear that it will appear in the next game.

The opponent they are facing is the Los Angeles Clippers, who are strong this season!

At this time, in the Western rankings, the Warriors are first, the Spurs are second, and the Clippers are in third place!

The Kings account for two of the six games the Warriors have lost so far, and the Clippers have accounted for two recently!

Because of the location, the Clippers and Warriors will play four games this season.

This is the last game of the season.

The Clippers changed their usual flamboyant attitude, and the entire team did not give interviews before the game.

They have won two games against the Warriors this season, and they will win them in the final game!

The league also recently issued a statement that all the games that Coach Wharton has led the team to win during this period are Coach Kerr's. Nothing to do with him.

......

Cole: "I could have been in the hospital for a few days. But I just can't stay any longer. Since the doctor said I could be discharged, I came out right away.

It's incredible, Wharton. Now the coach is really terrifying~"

Wharton: "I didn't actually do anything. It's just to copy your usual tactical drills, change a few punctuation points or something, and use it.

The players are also very good. I feel like I'm just lying down to win a lot of games~ I didn't do anything, and the game was over. Win one after another, I'm scared to win~"

Today, Wharton relaxed at the first glance at Cole.

Finally the manager is back. Although it was enjoyable in this position. But it's so tiring......

The point is that tiredness is not the point, the point is that it does not count in Wharton's coaching record this season. All the results are from Cole.

Cole: "What's the concern? ”

Walton: "My goal is that when you come back, the players are all healthy. Ask for this"

Cole: "yes...... If there is an injury to a player. It really affected the team's performance. I came back and heard that Thompson was going back to the team soon.

You don't have to work so hard now. I'll give you three days off. Rest well."

Wharton: "I love to hear this~ is it now?" ”

Cole: "You can rest today." But today is not counted as a three-day break. You're on paid vacation today! ”

Walton: "With a coach like you, I don't even want to be the head coach of the team anymore~ I want to be by your side all the time~"

Wharton smiled and left Cole's office.

It's been a stressful year though. But the surprise was not small.

This season, the Warriors have once again improved their player strength, coordination and player staffing. On top of that, they have a young and promising assistant like Wharton.

While the Warriors have endured an unimaginable number of player injuries, they have been questioned before the season.

But it doesn't seem like this season has affected the Warriors' ability to improve again! How much it has improved, he Cole is not clear.

That's where the season is scary. The Warriors have been through a lot in recent years, but they don't seem to be going downhill.

The signs of this season seem to indicate something.

Cole didn't think about it and felt so excited! But he had to hold his breath.

Every round of the playoffs is a big test. Unless they can sweep their opponents, once they are eliminated, the Warriors will have to undergo a major reshuffle from players to coaches this season!

The patience on the part of the management has reached its limit this season.

There is even an unnamed management who revealed in an interview that it seems that the investment of the Splash Brothers here is more than 100 million yuan, and it seems that it is about to be wasted.

When the time comes, their Warriors will immediately become a joke in the whole league!

Because it took so much money. But he didn't win a championship.

In fact, when the player was offered a salary of more than 100 million yuan, many fans and the media had already begun to wait to see their jokes.

In the media's opinion, does it mean that even if inflation is very strong, it will not give players hundreds of millions of salaries?

......

Thompson: "I'm feeling good right now!" The doctor has said that I can go back to playing now.

I called Kerr to report the good news, but the manager told me that he was not allowed to leave the hospital during the week's observation period......

That's the attitude of my teammates.

All right. Since it's been so long. I don't care about staying in the hospital for another week. But you have to be careful with my brothers in this game.

The Clippers have had a ferocious season this season......"

......

It's rare that the Los Angeles Clippers have played so far, and no major players on their team have been injured.

The team has also completely changed some of their game style in dozens of games.

Jordan Jr. was more focused on defending and grabbing rebounds. And there has been a noticeable improvement in passing, too!

At this time, Jordan Jr.'s average assists per game have increased by 0.7 compared with last season!

The Clippers want to be competitive in the West, first of all, they have increased the number of shots they have from the outside.

And their team's defensive ability is good, and now with such an attack, their performance on the field has become terrifying!

During this time, the strong teams in the west were defeated by them one by one! The Warriors were defeated twice by them!

The number of times the media has felt that such a team may become a dark horse in the Western Conference playoffs this season!

When it came to the second round, it was exciting!

And the Warriors, although they are still the most popular on the Internet, are still the first to be discussed. But maybe I didn't play well, and maybe I will be out of the playoffs this season~

Many fans and media are looking forward to the Warriors finishing the regular season with a high profile and being eliminated directly in the playoffs~

Before the game, until the Clippers players entered the game, they were not disturbed by the media. Because they can't bother the Clippers either.

Cole's return is not good news for them.

This season, they played seriously in every game against the Warriors in the regular season.

The first game was lost, and the last two were won. In the regular season, there are still online discussions in the league that it is not easy for any team to win against the Warriors.

And they and the Kings are both teams that have won two games in a row against the Warriors.

The Clippers felt that their win over the Warriors was not accidental, but rather that they were able to suppress their opponents' scoring more effectively defensively.

On the offensive end, the team can still perform brilliantly from time to time!

Griffin: "Look, Cole is back. But Wharton didn't look like he was playing today."

Paul: "Change the soup but not the medicine." The players are still those. It's not difficult.

Li Feng is now in a period of adjustment, so his performance is not so stable. This is a good breaking point. But I still don't feel like the Warriors are very strong.

It's just that everyone has a little bit of a shadow on this team. So naturally, it will be affected in the game. ”

Griffin: "But we're well prepared this season. So the confidence is still relatively high."

Paul: "That's right. So to speak. We're not afraid of any team this season.

Although the win rate is not high. But those games that were lost, either our players were rested, or the opponents were basically eliminated in the playoffs.

I'm looking forward to Thompson coming back and fighting us! It's not that difficult to play against the current Warriors."

Griffin: "I heard he could come back." As a result, Cole put him directly in the hospital for another week."

Paul: "This Cole is much better than Wharton...... Either way, I feel like we're one step closer to the championship! ”

The players around him were encouraged to hear Griffin and Paul's conversation at this time!

Maybe if they're not careful, they will be the team that wins the championship next season!

When a team wins the championship, as long as the players are not too weak, they will basically be coaxed by other teams!

As a substitute player for the championship team, there will be a feeling that one person has won the Taoist chicken dog to ascend to heaven!

Cole: "Vallejo, I won't start this game. In the previous games, pay more attention to Speights's basket handling skills.

Let's play against a player like Jordan Jr. now, that's the only way. It's not going to be flattering......"

This season, as long as it's as a player for the Warriors. You'll feel extra comfortable.

Because whether it's Wharton coaching the game, or Kerr. They are all surprisingly good-tempered......

Wharton is a young coach who gets along with the players.

And Cole's words are more about the patience of his players and the cultivation of them in peacetime!

The players also know that although the situation of the team at this point is that they need to improve in terms of defense, rebounding, etc., so they have to get those back in the regular season.

But you are alone to improve your responsiveness, and the team is consciously developing you, are completely different concepts.

It didn't take long for the former to be eliminated by the team for unknown reasons. But the latter is the worst, and when you are eliminated, the team will also let you know why.

But generally speaking, as long as you seriously improve your skills and abilities, even if you are eliminated, it is also beneficial to go to other teams.

So this season, the Warriors' players who have been under the basket for a long time will play very hard.

Jordan Jr., the Clippers' big center, is still rough in terms of technology. But there's no denying that he's one of the strongest centre-forwards these days!

Players from both sides came on the pitch. Today at home with the Warriors.

The atmosphere was a lot like a playoff game. Because of the first two games at Staples Arena, the final results stung Warriors fans.

There were a lot of fans in the audience at this time shouting for the team to beat the Clippers.

The starters on the Clippers' side today are Jordan Jr., Griffin, Stephenson, Redick and Paul.

On the Warriors' side, they are Speights, Green, Barnes, Curry, and Li Feng!

During this time, Li Feng seems to have had a bottleneck in his career.

He wants his hand to improve quickly, but the more he rushes, the more accurate his shooting accuracy will drop in the game......

By now, he has reduced the number of shots he has taken quite a bit.

Although the team doesn't say anything, the outside world is very consistent. That is, Li Feng's state at this time is too similar to when Jeremy Lin left the Knicks!

From a dazzling player, he suddenly became an organizational defender who can only barely play the statistics of ordinary blue-collar players.

The number of assists depends entirely on whether your teammates are accurate or not. But fortunately, Li Feng's luck may be good, he is in a team that is good at shooting.

So the number of assists is still quite impressive.

Kerr is coming back this time, and he definitely doesn't want Thompson to return to the team right away.

He's going to have to take a good look at the form of every player on his team before Thompson returns.

Because as long as Klay returns to the team, the other players are bound to be affected to a certain extent.

There's also the fact that you don't want other teams to know early about what their Warriors are like when Thompson returns.

For example, the current Clippers. If Thompson plays in this game. Maybe they'll be able to grasp what the Warriors are like in the playoffs.

Because the two strong teams in the west met like this, it was impossible to pass by casually.

Both teams will definitely fight. While fighting who can win, we also conducted a survey.

Cole was thinking that the live game had begun. Little Jordan was the first to get basketball!

Then Griffin received his pass, Paul quickly rushed over, and after receiving the ball, he faced Curry and scored a three-pointer!

Among the teams in the West, the Warriors, Spurs and Clippers should not be too strong this season......

Only the Spurs are still playing team basketball, but it will not be easy to win against the San Antonio Spurs......

It's like they have some kind of magic, and as long as they play against the Spurs, it's hard to control the pace of the game.

Because the tempo of the scene is controlled by the Spurs.

Li Feng received the basketball at this time, and on the home side of the Warriors, he could even hear some boos. Although the boos are small.

Green quickly received a pass from Li Feng in the half, and finally Barnes got his pass and his jumper was interfered with by Stephenson!

After Paul got the ball, he directly lowered his body and passed the ball to Redick, who jumped up and hit a three-point shot!

6:0! The camera immediately focused on Coach Kerr.

The fans cheered as soon as they saw Coach Kerr on the big screen again!

But at this time, Cole looked at the game with some worry. He had a tactical board in his hand and didn't know what he was thinking.

The Clippers seemed to have figured it out, and no one spoke to the Warriors' players.

Even a few verbal provocations just now did not make the players on the Clippers' side change their emotions.

Li Feng tried to shoot once next to the three-point line, and the basketball was blunt!

The ability to fight has come up, and the shooting has begun to be inaccurate...... Paul tossed the ball straight to Griffin, and Stephenson hit a three-point shot after receiving the ball on the other side!

Cole motioned for a timeout.
