The Mavericks' 2011 playoff play was divided into two parts, regular time and the fourth quarter.

The fourth quarter relied on Nowitzki's strong personal form in the second and third rounds after the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

On the other hand, relatively speaking, in fact, what is more important is the first three quarters, to use tactical changes and star strength in the first three quarters to tighten the score, and at this stage, Nowitzki basically does not exert strength, so he will contain and catch the ball, and all of them will be handed over to the opponent.

Carlisle cut the whole game very clearly, handed it to Nowitzki at the critical moment, and when he couldn't play, Nowitzki played, Nowitzki played well and had containment, and Kidd organized the rest of the attack.

This style of play means that the Mavericks lost one of the strongest scorers at the power forward position in the first three quarters.

Therefore, if you can bite the score in regular time, you have to rely on the coach's arrangement, tactical strategy, and the performance of other players.

With the experience of winning the first game, Coach Hollins has a lot of confidence in the performance of Randolph and Sun Ce in key moments.

However, their Grizzlies have to use the Mavericks' tactical strategy, and they have made great adjustments, and their roster structure and playing characteristics are very different from the Mavericks.

For example, they have two absolute strong points, and they are not strong points as poor as Yao Ming's physical strength.

In addition to this, others are also strong, unlike the Mavericks who most of the players are functional players, such as Paul George, who scored a double-double last night and had five rebounds and five assists.

In addition to being the best defensive player and one of the best playmaker interior players in the league today, the characteristics of a true role player are quite different.

So there are a lot of things to adjust.

So, their Grizzlies can start fighting for stars from the third quarter.

Regardless of the star stage, the regular phase alone reduces the consumption of the two major stars inside and outside, and relies on other players to play at full strength to deal with the Heat to bite the score, at this stage, their Grizzlies will be less difficult than the Mavericks to implement the same strategy.

Of course, relatively speaking, the burden on Sun Ce and Randolph is heavier than the burden of Nowitzki's simple fight for the fourth quarter.

Coach Hollins doesn't want to save face and reject another team's successful strategy, so he directly incorporates this strategy into his own team.

And the most important thing in this strategy is the play of the stars, if the two stars are not in good shape, the game is over.

However, the playoffs are all about the time to fight for stars! This strategy is a strategy for fighting stars!

Coach Hollins naturally believes in Sun Ce and Randolph.

……

At the end of the day's preparation, the amount of training is not much, and tomorrow is the second game.

At this time, all the offensive and defensive tactics suitable for their lineup have long been practiced to the best level of the current season, mainly to adjust the rhythm and change the rhythm, so that the Grizzlies are the best at it, so Sun Ce temporarily adjusted the rhythm of the whole game after the first quarter last night, which was very smooth.

Back at the hotel, Sun Ce received a call from Bill Duffy.

"Bill, how are the preparations for the new company?"

"It's going well, my studio has left BDA, I've registered my own agency in Los Angeles, and the office building and player contract handovers are going on one after another, so you don't have to worry about that...... But you really don't want shares? ”

"Shares...... How much can I get? ”

"BDA's annual income is less than your endorsement fee for a year, which is a lot of money for me, not necessarily for you."

"No, it's a lot of money for me, but I guess the NBA will definitely ban players from setting up their own agencies in the future, so let's work together."

"Thank you so much for this, willing to go it alone with me......" Bill Duffy said this, his tone full of gratitude.

In the 90s, he just joined the profession of agent and joined BDA, but the money he earned was half of BDA, for example, in the past season, he got more than 6 million endorsement fees and 1 million salary commissions from Sun Ce, half of which had to be distributed to BDA.

Because when he cooperated with Yao Zhi's team before, it was in the name of BDA brokerage company, not him, Yao Zhi's team involved a lot of things, and he had to work alone, and he might not be able to take it away from Yao's team, so he waited until Yao Ming decided to retire before he was ready to open his own company.

Sun Ce is different, Sun Ce is just a "side hustle", and there are more other industries that make money, so he will terminate the contract when he says he will terminate the contract with BDA, and he directly joins Bill Duffy Studio.

In addition to the fact that the money is generally divided, there is also the fact that Bill Duffy and BDA do not agree on the same philosophy.

Bill Duffy, who was born in a military family and was a star of the school team in college, is more sincere, while BDA, a large brokerage company that integrates the NFL and the entertainment industry, is becoming more and more focused on making money, such as Anthony's soap opera, which was created by BDA and Anthony's wife Lala, which is not a situation that Bill Duffy likes.

After becoming independent, Bill Duffy currently has Nash, Sun Ce, Jordan Jr., Anthony Davis, Randolph, and no one else for the time being, Anthony, Landry Fields and others have not terminated their contracts with BDA.

Among them, Nash confirmed that he will retire after this season, which means that there are very few players under Bill Duffy.

However, it is enough to have Sun Ce!

Sun Ce's income from basketball + basketball endorsement alone is higher than the combined income of all players in the entire team of some teams without superstars, which is the best starting point for the new company.

You must know that some independent agents have one or two players under their hands.

This is something that has been in preparation since the beginning of this year, Sun Ce's support is right, he doesn't need to rely on the connections of the brokerage company or other things, he is confident, he is the best market, he doesn't need how good the broker is, and good character is the most important.

The godfather of NBA fashion, who started to fight lawsuits after the season, is a lesson from the past!

"By the way, Noah, what's the name of the European point guard you asked me to sign...... Antetokounmpo? Yes, the name of the Greek is too hard to pronounce, it has been signed, are you sure he is very talented?

Okay, Noah, you have a good eye, I would have listened to you sign Klay if I knew it, but if this Greek has talent, the Grizzlies draft him, I guess it will delay his development. ”

"What are we going to do with him? He has to go to the bad team to train the football right, maybe he needs the ball more than me, I can't accept it, and I can't accept the bad training of rookies, a genius like him, there must be a team that will choose.

You've just formed a new company, you need to sign more rookies, cast more nets, play one, you need them to play, and what I need is your player connections here.

Clay...... Can you make an appointment with him in the summer? His father has a good relationship with the logo man, the logo man has a very good eye, you can have more contact with him, and he will definitely seize the opportunity to have a good relationship with an excellent agent like you. ”

"Noah, I think you're better suited for business than I am, no, you're better at business than me......"
