"It's too risky."

Frank wondered, how could any player be willing to shoot so many times from the outside? Shooting more than 5 three-pointers in a game is already a lot.

The implication of this sentence is that he still rejected Wang Mingming's suggestion.

Wang Ming shrugged his shoulders, slightly helpless.

At this point, the Nets' offense improved on the court.

Kostic turned and hit a hook shot, and Vince Carter drove for a layup that drew a foul on Hamilton to tie the score at 6-8 and only two points away.

"It's working!"

Zhang Weiping naturally agreed with the effect of this wave of adjustments, "After coming back, the Nets' offense has improved a lot, and the offense of the inside players and the breakthrough of the outside players have become extremely resolute." ”

"It seems that Coach Wang Tomorrow is indeed Frank's very trusted assistant, and we see that after the game, the two coaches are still discussing on the sidelines, probably to continue to make adjustments for the next game."

As soon as the two explained, Wang Mingming's image in front of the TV instantly became taller, and the fans felt that Wang Mingming was really good, talking and laughing at the NBA scene, pointing out the country, and being in a high position at a young age, he was a winner in life.

At the end of the first quarter, the Nets unexpectedly overtook the score, leading the Pistons 22-21.

In the second quarter of the game, Nets veteran Clifford Robinson was replaced, the point guard was Jacqui Vaughn, the forward Scott Padget, and Frank was rotated by 8 people.

The Pistons rotated nine players, with Antonio McDyce, Arroyo, Delfino and Maurice Evans on the floor.

Philip Sanders is full of confidence, after all, the Pistons have only lost a total of 5 games before, and the Pistons don't care about winning or losing a regular season game, they are just going for the championship.

The two teams played half-heartedly off the bench, and the score also rose tepidly.

Then, in the second half of the second quarter, Frank took Wang's advice on misplaced defense, using Jason Kidd to defend Richard Hamilton, who hit 3-of-1 shooting in the first quarter, and Vince Carter to guard Chauncey Billups.

This change worked wonders, and the Pistons' good feel on the outside was broken.

The Pistons then stepped up their interior offense, with Rasheed Wallace and Prince hitting baskets.

The Nets were very inefficient in breaking through and were forced to choose some outside shots, including three-point and long two-point shooting, Kidd felt hot, and Wang could see tomorrow that his 5 percent plus achievement in this game was on Kidd.

Kidd hit three three-pointers in the first half, and Billups' defense was useless.

The Nets led the Pistons 46-42 into the second half.

At this time, it is not only Chinese fans who are paying attention to this game, but also teams that are interested in winning the championship or regard one of the Nets and Pistons as an imaginary enemy.

After Wang became the assistant coach of the Nets tomorrow, the Nets' offense has changed somewhat, although it is not particularly obvious, but the effect is good.

And his Chinese identity gave him more exposure than the average teaching assistant, and some media began to report on the young teaching assistant.

What followed was a variety of praise and questioning, with mixed reviews.

An ESPN reporter said, "Wang Tomorrow is one of the Nets' established black pots this season, if head coach Frank can't lead the team to do more in the playoffs, not only the team may fall apart, from the general manager to the assistant coach, no one can escape, and they will all lose their jobs." ”

Sports Illustrated also made a bearish evaluation: "In addition to age, I can't see any bright spots, and my strength has never been proven, so I really don't understand this personnel change of the Nets." ”

Wang Mingming naturally knew a lot of comments about him from the outside world, but he was powerless to refute it at present, and there was not even anyone who came to interview him. And he himself does not have any radical emotions about this, and his own strength is not enough to compete with this group of media with biased eyes.

The top priority is to improve your own strength.

The Pistons were supposed to be his best chance to show himself, but unfortunately, head coach Frank didn't take his advice, which frustrated him.

The desire to become a manager is even stronger.

In the second half, Frank continued his offensive strategy of switching offense and defense, Kidd became the team's main controller, Vince Carter broke through inefficiently, but Kostic performed eye-catching, inside hook, mid-range jumper, broke out in the third quarter, cut 10 points, helped the Nets 65-62, still leading the Pistons by 3 points.

"Do you really want to win?"

The fans were excited, if this game was won, it would be a great encouragement for the Nets, they were the first in the league!

In the last quarter of the piston, none of the five tigers rested.

Philip Saunders said that he didn't care about the regular season record anymore, but when he really got to the court, he still couldn't help but want to add color to his resume of coaching the Pistons with the best record in history.

All five tigers are here, and for the Nets, it is even more challenging.

Billups broke out at the key point, hit a three-pointer from the outside, and the Pistons made a wave of offense to overtake the score, 71-70.

Billups' three-point accuracy in this game, whether it is Carter or Kidd's defense, has basically ignored, and the current five three-pointers have all been hit, and four free throws have also been hit.

It has been a magical season for Billups, who shot 43 percent from three-point range but only 41 percent from the field, shooting even less than he did from three-point range.

Frank could only call another timeout.

Vince Carter was slightly embarrassed that Billups was right under his nose, making a three-pointer, and his defense didn't meet the coach's requirements.

After the timeout, the Nets improved their defense, and it was Kostic who caused Big Ben's foul on the inside offense.

"Kostic today is simply divine, I feel like a white-skinned Yao Ming! Wow, this goal is in! That's amazing! Big Ben couldn't stop him. Zhang Weiping praised the Serbian center forward in a series of interjections.

"He's only in his second season, and he has a bright future!" Sun Zhengping glanced down at the information and said in surprise: "Kostic is actually a player in the 02 draft, and Yao Ming belongs to the same class, but it wasn't until 2004 the year before that he landed in the NBA, and now it's his second season in the NBA, but he can already contribute 13.5 points and 6.4 rebounds per game, which is a very good potential inside." ”

Wang observed the situation of the two teams on the court tomorrow, to the extent of the fourth quarter, the coach's tactical arrangement was basically useless, and the Pistons and Nets were full of a lot of star heads-up, accounting for about 30% of the overall tactics.

Heads-up is always the last tactic chosen by the coach, unless it is a triangle attack.

When the two teams went head-to-head, the Nets had some advantage, with Vince Carter indulging in the whole game and hitting a long-range three-pointer in the final minute.

The critical anxiety stage actually depends on which of the two teams is better able to grasp the key ball.

The Nets were significantly more dominant at home, eventually winning 91-83 over the Pistons, the No. 1 team in the East and No. 1 in the league, defending their last home game of January.

After the game, head coach Frank was interviewed.

A reporter from a sports media asked about Wang Mingming.

"The Nets have added a Chinese assistant coach, but this person has reportedly never coached before, can head coach Frank comment on that?"

If it had been a few days ago, Frank would have been pretending to be a good color, or a casual perfunctory.

But after the cooperation of these games, Frank found that Wang Tomorrow is indeed capable and can help him in coaching, Frank thought about it and gave Wang Tomorrow a high evaluation:

"He's got a lot of basic tactical theory, he's got a bit of a role to play on the team and help us move the Nets, and I appreciate his ability and style, and he's only 25 years old, he has the potential to be a head coach, he's a new star in the coaching industry."
