At the end of December, the Kings had some problems, except for the Christmas game to beat the Nuggets, the Kings, a team that claims to be extremely stable, lost to the Clippers, Grizzlies and the Hawks from afar.

This is very surprising, the Kings have always been known for their steady style of play, and after focusing on retro mid-range tactics this season, they are even like the Spurs, and now the Spurs are suffering consecutive defeats, and even the Kings are inevitably injured, and at the end of 10 years, they have also made such a three-game losing streak.

In the NBA, no team can win all the time, and of course, no team can lose all the time.

There are always games to win and there are always games to lose.

Three consecutive defeats have become a new topic to discuss in the NBA.

King, what's wrong?

We have reason to believe that the future is better, and we don't think that a mere three-game losing streak will stop the West Coast beast from moving forward.

It's just that once there is a losing streak in the team, discordant voices will come out accordingly.

A Yahoo reporter wrote an article titled "How Far Can the Backs, Kings?" 》

This article deeply analyzes the various tactics of the Kings, and then talks about some special problems that the Kings have had this season, personality problems that are not similar to other teams, and the role played by head coach Wang Tomorrow in this is enough to make reporters write about it.

The article believes that the biggest problem for the Kings is the choice of tactics, which is too accommodating to the team's retro-style play of several players. This is a question worth exploring.

This season, the Kings have averaged 82.4 shots per game and 22.2 shots per game from mid-range, accounting for 27 percent, the highest number since Wang took charge of the NBA team, while the Kings have averaged only 18 three-point shots per game, accounting for 21 percent, which is also the lowest since Wang tomorrow in recent years.

Coach Wang Mingming is good at coaching running and shooting, and the team under his command may be the most unscientific age structure in the league, but it can always combine offense and defense, three-point shooting and running and shooting, which has become Wang Mingming's sign, and now this season's Kings team makes people feel a little strange.

This article also expresses the doubts of the vast majority of people, Wang said in an interview later that the Kings have always been the Kings team, the defending champions, but in the face of different enemies, they will choose many different tactics, for now, the Kings are very stable in the middle distance, and they have almost become one of the killers of the Kings, and it is normal for the Kings to have ups and downs, after all, the Kings are not neat now.

That's right, after Kidd's injury, Batum also missed the game due to injury.

The good thing is that the Kings have plenty of personnel reserves.

'Jason Kidd's injury has hurt the team, we don't have enough experience in the No.1 position at the moment, the team has a little bit less rhythm in the game, sometimes the young players make some mistakes on the pitch, I know, it's inevitable to grow up, I just want the kids to grow up quickly.' Wang chatted about Kidd's injury tomorrow, and Kidd will be back as soon as mid-January, during which time the Kings will still have to go through a blank window without a top master of the court.

The main thing about losing to the Hawks was that the Kings' No. 1 defense was not good, and then Jamal Crawford, who came off the bench for the Hawks, played the same feeling as Derrick Rose and slashed 31 points on the Kings.

Bledsoe has talent defensively, but his current defensive efficiency is mediocre and he has only been in the league for a long time, and he still lacks a lot of experience.

"Help me get Patrick Beverley back into the lineup."

Tomorrow Wang finally decided to recall the last young player in the Development League, Patrick Beverley.

Beverley was a rookie at the end of last year's second round, but he spent the last year in Europe training, before the Heat trade, the Kings had noticed the rookie, and was on the vetting list, and then in the Heat trade, as a small trade addition, the signing rights were sold to the Kings, and the Kings signed the rookie.

Beverley has never really spoken to Wang Mingming, among the several rookies in the Kings team, he can't compare to Bledsoe, and he can't compare to Stephenson and Whiteside, at least the latter two rookies have assistant coaches who support them, Beverley can only look at Wang tomorrow with eager eyes, hoping to return to the team one day.

On the first day of the new year, the agent told Beverley the good news.

Beverley yelled in excitement and jumped out of bed, still training with the Bighorn Sheep and the Kings on the road as the Development League teams competed in various games.

"What Coach Wang tomorrow means is to let you rush to Phoenix before the 2nd, and during the Kings vs. Suns game, Coach Wang Tomorrow will see you."

The agent explained what he meant on the phone, and Beverly even said several OK.

Beverley immediately got up and packed up his clothes, and halfway through his things, his teammates from the Bighorn Sheep had already heard the news.

Beverley was born at the bottom, and his style on the court was very fierce, but he was not bad off the court, and in the bighorn sheep team, he also met a few fox friends and dogs, and a few people came to say goodbye.

"Patrick, congratulations." The big black guy hugged Beverly gently.

Beverly touched his head, a little embarrassed, "Jones, don't be discouraged, you're still young, and you still have a chance." ”

"Hey, hey." The big black man named Jones smiled innocently and sighed: "Forget it, you know, my talent is not good, my arms are not high, I can't run fast and I can't shoot accurately, you are much better than me, now that the coach sees you, you will definitely be able to rush into the rotation." ”

"This time when I go back, as long as I have this opportunity, I must perform well in front of Coach Wang Mingming, and now that Jason Kidd is injured, there would have been a chance in the No. 1 position."

"Coach Wang Mingming is the best coach in the NBA, and he must know how good you are." Jones said encouragingly.

"I hope so." "The competition in the NBA is so brutal, and if you slack off a little bit, there's a lot of people behind you who want to overtake, and I feel like it's the marginal players like us who are the most stressed," Beverley said. ”

Jones said: "I've heard that the Kings have lost three in a row, and there are problems with offense and defense, and a lot of people say that the Kings shouldn't shoot so much mid-range, and your specialty is defense and three-pointers, which is exactly in line with Coach Wang's setting." ”

Beverley smiled and nodded, "If that's the case, that's great, then my hopes of staying in the rotation are even higher." ”

"At least more than Lance and Hassan." Jones set a tentative goal for his friend.
