In the blink of an eye, the pre-season of the 09-10 season officially began.

Because the team practiced the new tactics for a month, in this playoffs, Richard did not give the newcomers too much playing time, but let the main lineup appear to test the power of the new tactics.

The preseason opener is against the New Jersey Nets in the same district, and if Richard guesses correctly, the Nets are now completely about to rebuild.

Reconstruction with Yi Jianlian as the core cornerstone......

The Nets are likely to swing this season and then pick a top-pick first-round pick next year to pick a reliable guard swingman.

The current situation of the Nets is quite beneficial to Yi Jianlian, and he is also relieved to see that Yi Jianlian is now completely gaining a foothold in the league.

……

The referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, and the starters for both sides began to take the field.

The Buccaneers' starting lineup has changed quite a bit from last season.

Starting center Jordan Jr., power forward Milicic, small forward Durant, point guard Roy, and point guard Curry.

With the exception of Milicic and Roy, who started last season, everyone else is a new face in the starting line-up.

And the starting lineup of the Nets is actually not bad, Yi Jianlian, Luo Yiba plus a Devin Harris.

The strength of these three people is okay, and Yi Jianlian seems to be already at the level of a first-line power forward in the league because of the binding of Milicic's template.

The level of Luo Yiban and Harris is a little worse, but it is definitely better than the average starter.

Of course, even if these three people exist, the strength of the Nets is actually not worth mentioning, because the level of their other players is really a bit scum.

In addition to these three people, the Nets also have eleven players, and what makes Richard embarrassed is that Richard only knows half of these eleven players, and the other half he looks very impressed.

With such a ghost lineup, even if their Nets don't mess up this year and stay in the East where the strong are like clouds, it is actually not so easy to enter the playoffs.

The overall strength of the East is actually more than that of the West, and the four teams of the Pirates, Green Kai, Pistons and Cavaliers are all good and have quite good lineups.

After removing these four teams, the Magic and Heat are not vegetarians.

The Heat has improved a lot over the years because of the addition of Iguodala and Beasley.

Beasley was much more honest than normal, probably in high school, when Richard's conversation with him had an effect.

At present, Beasley is in the Heat, averaging 17 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists per game last season, although it is not as dazzling as Durant, but as a sophomore rookie, his performance is actually eye-catching enough.

Except for Oden and Durant, no rookie who has entered the league in recent years has been able to stabilize Beasley's performance.

On the contrary, it was Iguodala's performance that disappointed Pat Riley a little.

He has considerable expectations for Iguodala, because based on Iguodala's performances with the Buccaneers, he definitely has the potential to become a small forward at an all-time level.

But after arriving at the Heat, Iguodala's strength has not declined, but there has been no obvious growth, and it has generally remained at the level of the previous two years......

All-Star level, but not the top All-Star level in the current service, let alone an all-Star level in history.

Pat Riley had thought he was making a lot of money on the deal, but now it seems that he didn't make much money......

……

The game on the field has begun.

Jordan Jr. jumped with Lowe and got the first offensive round for the Buccaneers.

Curry controlled the ball and pushed towards the frontcourt, and once the ball was in the frontcourt, Curry was looking for a passer.

"Run!"

"Pass the ball quickly, don't hesitate!"

"Vote or pass!"

"Speed me up!"

Richard stood on the sidelines and shouted at the court.

It was the team's first game with the new tactics, and the players were still a little uncomfortable, especially in the engine at the back, who was struggling internally.

According to the tactics arranged by Richard, after he dribbled to the front court, if he had the opportunity, he immediately shot directly with three points, and if he did not have the opportunity, he immediately passed the ball to his teammates, and he began to run without the ball, waiting for his teammates to pass.

It sounds easy, but it's not so easy for the young Curry right now, at least as soon as he arrives in the frontcourt, he has to spend some time looking for a passing target.

At the moment, Curry's organizational ability is definitely not as good as Rondo and Paul, he has much less experience than these two, and even after reaching his peak, Curry's organizational ability is not as strong as these two.

After Richard's shouting, Curry didn't dare to continue to hesitate to pass the ball, and directly faced Harris's defense and made a three-point shot.

The shot was too hasty, and the effect was naturally very unsatisfactory, and the iron was missed.

However, Jordan Jr. under the basket also played his value and grabbed this offensive rebound on the head of the first board of Luo.

Then Jordan Jr. handed the ball to Milicic near the basket, and Milicic scored with a small throw.

……

Richard stood on the sidelines frowning, the offensive rhythm was still a little bad, not up to the level of the warriors of later generations.

Luckily, it's only preseason and the Buccaneers still have time to learn from their experience.

……

Then it was the Nets' turn to attack, and after Frank returned to the Nets, the first thing he did was to develop a set of tactics with Yi Jianlian as the core.

After Harris controlled the ball to the front court, he directly looked for an opportunity to pass the ball to Yi Jianlian, and then Yi Jianlian shared the ball.

Frank's tactic is almost a variant of the Princeton system......

With the development of basketball tactical concepts, some tactics have become unsuitable for the times, but these tactics have not been swept into the dustbin of history, but have been rejuvenated by later generations of coaches through adjustments.

That's true for the triangle offensive system, and it's true for the Princeton system.

After Yi Jianlian held the ball, he passed straight to the team's starting small forward Jarvis Hayes......

This small forward named Hayes, Richard has some impressions, but he is not impressed, he belongs to a relatively marginal group in the league, and he didn't expect to be mixed into the starting position in the Nets.

After Hayes received the ball, he had a good idea and wanted to take advantage of Durant's failure to block his breakthrough route and make a quick shot.

As a result, his mid-pitch was embarrassed this time......

If you want to say that the three-point shot is not touched, then forget it, although it is a little embarrassing, but it is not unacceptable.

But now the mid-range shot can be three without touching, which is enough to see the strength of this player.

Durant was also stunned, he didn't expect Hayes, who was opposite him, to be so tiger.

The shot was extremely fast and lightning, and the result was a three-way non-stick......

The operation was as fierce as a tiger, and the record was 0-5.

Yi Jianlian shook his head with a tangled expression, his pass was actually quite exquisite, but it was no problem, his teammates' abilities were really limited.

……

The ball was in the hands of the Pirates, and this time Curry played a lot more resolutely.

After the ball reached the frontcourt, Curry immediately passed the ball to Durant in the axis area.

After Durant received the ball, he didn't make any running movements, and opened his hand directly to make a dry pull-out shot, and the opposing Hayes tried to block, but this difference of more than ten centimeters in height, coupled with Durant's excellent athleticism, his blocking could only be regarded as futile.

"Huh!"

Crisply into the net, Durant scored the first goal of his pirate career.

After hitting, Durant's expression was quite calm and began to return to defense.

He averaged 26 points per game with the Trail Blazers last season, and for a player of his rank, making a mid-range shot in the preseason is really nothing to be happy about.

……

In the next offensive round of the Nets, Yi Jianlian simply didn't pass the ball.

Among the teammates in the Nets at the moment, in Yi Jianlian's view, I am afraid that there is only one Luo Yidian who is a little sure of the offense, even if it is Harris, the core of the backcourt, it is actually not accurate.

In that case, it's better to do it yourself......

Against Milicic's defense, Yi Jianlian turned over and leaned back, and the ball hit the board into the basket, which was still very difficult.

Yi Jianlian's technique actually can't find any faults, he can come up with all kinds of tricks, and now this turn back is still quite beautiful.

……

It's the Pirates' offensive round again, and this time Curry may have also eaten the sweetness of the last offensive round, and after the ball reached the frontcourt, he passed the ball to Durant without saying a word.

After Durant received the ball, he pulled it directly in front of Hayes.

"Huh!"

It's hollow again......

Hayes's face is green, how the hell can I prevent this?!

The height gap is so big, and the arm span gap is also huge, even if his athleticism is similar to Durant's, it is difficult for him to interfere with Durant's shot.

It is equivalent to saying that these two balls, Durant is completely in a half-empty state, and his defense is a complete joke.

In the next few rounds, Curry and Durant began to connect, and after Curry arrived in the frontcourt, he passed the ball to Durant and let Durant pull out.

Five shots and five hits, to the horror of the Pirate fans at the scene, they exchanged Oden for this skinny hemp pole, as if they had something on hand......

Richard stood on the sidelines, finally with a smile on his face.

However, his smile is not because the team's tactical system is well executed, but because Durant's performance is too outstanding.

The opening scene is quite characteristic of the Grim Reaper, and Richard can't help but think of the previous sentence.

The only thing that can prevent Durant is Durant's own touch.

(And Wei Shao, my God, Wei Shao's shooting rate in this round of the series is serious, this kind of play, he can't win the championship even if he gives Durant, before I said Lowry is very pitiful, Lowry, I'm sorry, you're not the worst point guard in this year's playoffs.) ）
